Objective To summarize the experience of surgical diagnosis and management of patients with blunt pancreatic trauma. Methods The clinical data of 15 patients with blunt pancreatic trauma who underwent surgical treatment in the Yuebei People’s Hospital from January 2019 to April 2021 were retrospectively collected. The injury causes, early diagnostic methods, surgical treatment results, and major complications of patients with blunt pancreatic trauma were analyzed. Results The causes of blunt pancreatic trauma: traffic accident injury (seven patients), falling injury (four patients), impact injury (three patients), and crush injury (one patient). Organ Injury Scale grading system of the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma grading of pancreatic trauma: grade Ⅱ (five patients), grade Ⅲ (seven patients), grade Ⅳ (two patients), and grade Ⅴ (one patient). The patients whose serum amylase value was more than four times of reference value (104 U/L) or who underwent enhanced CT were diagnosed with pancreatic trauma before operation. Two patients underwent pancreatoduodenectomy, two patients underwent removal of peripancreatic hematoma+pancreaticojejunostomy, seven patients underwent distal pancreatectomy, two patients underwent suture hemostasis of pancreas, two patients underwent clearance and drainage of pancreatic necrosis. One patient died of combined injury and bleeding. Major complications: five patients suffered from biochemical leakage, three patients suffered from grade B and one patient suffered from grade C pancreatic fistula, one patient suffered from abdominal pseudoaneurysm and hemorrhage. Conclusions The early diagnosis and grading of pancreatic injury should be combined with the history of injury, serum amylase level, and abdominal enhanced CT. Surgical intervention should be carried out as early as possible for high-grade pancreatic trauma.
ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical effect of end-to-side binding pancreaticojejunostomy.MethodsFrom March 2009 to December 2019 , 70 patients (pancreatic head cancer in 16 cases, duodenal papillary cancer in 27 cases, bile duct cancer in 8 cases, periampullary cancer in 2 cases, gallbladder cancer invading the pancreatic head in 1 case, intraductal papillary myxoma of pancreas in 6 cases, and mass-type chronic pancreatitis in 10 cases) were performed with end-to-side binding pancreaticojejunostomy were retrospectively analyzed, including large pancreas remnant (n=4). The main procedures included isolation of the pancreatic remnant, incising the jejunal wall and preplacing with seromuscular purse string suture around the incision, performing end-to side binding pancreaticojejunostomy.ResultsThe procedures were successful in all 70 patients. Postoperative complications included pancreatic fistula (n=3, 4.3%), of three patients cured with reoperation, jejunal loop decompression tube was not placed in 2 patients, and 1 patient had pancreatic fistula and bleeding on the eighth day after operation. One out of 3 patients developing abdominal hemorrhage which reoperation died of acute respiratory distress syndrome, 1 patient was cured with the vascular interventional hemostasis. Gastrointestinal anastomotic bleeding (n=1) and adhesive intestinal obstruction (n=1) were cured with reoperation, biliary leakage (n=1) was cured with conservative treatment.ConclusionEnd-to-side binding pancreaticojejunostomy is simple, safe and reliable.
ObjectiveTo study clinical practical value of multimode imaging technique in precise hepatectomy for huge hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). MethodsThe clinicopathologic data of patients with huge HCC who underwent precise hepatectomy in Yuebei People’s Hospital from Jan. 2018 to Dec. 2020 were collected. The three-dimensional (3D) reconstruction, 3D visualization, 3D printing, and augmented reality (AR) were used to guide preoperative evaluation, surgical planning, and surgical navigation. The liver function indexes, surgical mode, operative time, intraoperative bleeding, volume of resected liver, postoperative hospitalization, and complications were analyzed. ResultsThere were 23 patients in this study, including 18 males and 5 females, with (56.8±8.1) years old. The virtual tumor volume assessed by multimodal imaging technology was (865.2±165.6) mL and the virtual resected liver volume was (1 628.8±144.4) mL. The planned operations were anatomical hepatectomy in 19 patients and non-anatomical hepatectomy in 4 patients. The actual operation included 17 cases of anatomical hepatectomy and 6 cases of non-anatomical hepatectomy, which was basically consistent with the results of AR. The operative time was (298.4±74.5) min, the median hepatic blood flow blocking time was 20 min, and the intraoperative bleeding was (330.4±152.8) mL. Compared with preoperative levels, the levels of hemoglobin and albumin decreased temporarily on the first day after operation (P<0.05), and then which began to rise on the third day and basically rose to the normal range; prothrombintime, total bilirubin, alanine aminotransferase, and aspartate aminotransferase increased transiently on the first day after operation (P<0.05), then which began to decline to the normal levels. There were no serious operative complications and no perioperative death. The median follow-up time was 18 months, the tumor recurrence and metastasis occurred in 3 cases. ConclusionFrom preliminary results of this study, it could improve surgical safety and precision of hepatectomy for huge HCC by preoperative precise assessment and operation navigation in good time of multimode imaging technology.
