Objective To analyze the feasibility, possible problems and application of bilingual teaching rounds in vascular surgery teaching. Methods Ninety participants included internship, interns and residents of standardized training from 2015 to 2016 in vascular department of West China Hospital of Sichuan University were included. The questionnaire named the feasibility of bilingual rounds in surgery teaching was done and analyzed in all of these students. The results of the evaluation score from different teachers on their teaching process were also analyzed. Results Three groups could accept bilingual teaching rounds of this teaching form, and all of them were willing to be involved in, but their English levels and acceptance participate times were different. The CET4 levels of three groups did not have any difference; however, the CET6 levels had significant difference. There were significant differences in the preparation times and the review times (all P values <0.05), and there were no difference in acceptance, value and promote degree (all P values >0.1). In different teaching teachers' self assessment on the same objective, there was significant differences (all P values <0.05). Conclusion Bilingual rounds in surgery teaching have certain feasibility. Different adjustments are needed according to the English level and the grade, and higher request of the teacher is necessary.
Artificial intelligence in robot system is mainly divided into two types: endoscopic robot system and intracavitary robot navigation system. The endoscopic robot system can effectively shorten the time of vascular anastomosis and occlusion during vascular bypass surgery, while the intracavitary robot navigation system has good localization and real-time observation function. Moreover, it has significant advantages in complex lesions and special anatomical locations. High cost and complicated equipment debugging are the main factors that limit the wide application of robot systems. Artificial intelligence represented by robot system has obvious advantages and broad prospects in the field of vascular surgery, but more research is needed to improve its shortcomings and to further clarify its standard operation and long-term results.
Venous thromboembolism (VTE), comprising both deep vein thrombosis and pulmonary embolism, is a chronic illness that contributes significantly to the global burden of disease. The American College of Chest Physicians (ACCP) published the 9th edition of antithrombotic treatment guidelines for VTE (AT9) in 2012, which was first updated in 2016. In October 2021, ACCP published the 2nd update to AT9, which addressed 17 clinical questions related to VTE and presented 29 guidance statements in total. In this paper we interpreted the recommendations proposed in this update of the guidelines.
The European Society for Vascular Surgery (ESVS) 2022 clinical practice guidelines showed us venous thrombosis management in January 2022. In terms of iliac vein diseases, it retained some guiding views, upgraded some guiding views, and added some new views compared with the version 2015. It has good guidance and reference significance for medical staff and patients. The part of the guidelines about iliac vein disease is worth our interpretation.

In response to the problems existing in traditional education, the Department of Vascular Surgery, Xuanwu Hospital, Capital Medical University has introduced new media into the cultivation of clinical medical postgraduates. New media can concretize abstract content, which is more conducive to improve learning efficiency. This article combines practical experience to explain the advantages, teaching effectiveness, challenges faced of new media, and how to better apply new media teaching.
ObjectiveTo assess whether the geriatric nutritional risk index (GNRI) of elderly patients can be used as an evaluation index for complications after endovascular aneurysm repair (EVAR) of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA).MethodsA total of 265 patients with EVAR who received abdominal aortic aneurysm between January 2011 to December 2017 were included in this study from West China Hospital of Sichuan University. All patients included in this study were subrenal arterial AAA. Statistical analysis of clinical data was performed. The value of GNRI in evaluating postoperative complications of EVER patients was evaluated.ResultsOf the 372 patients, 158 were included in the GNRI abnormal group (GNRI≤98), and 214 were included in the normal group (GNRI>98). Univariate analysis showed that the age (P=0.04), drinking (P=0.04), serum albumin level (P<0.001), BMI (P<0.001), GNRI (P=0.004), and stroke (P<0.05) were risk factors that affects postoperative complications of AAA. Multivariate analysis showed that preoperative GNRI [HR=0.687, 95%CI: (0.487, 0.968), P=0.032] abnormality was one of the risk factors affecting postoperative complications of AAA.ConclusionFor patients undergoing endovascular aneurysm repair of abdominal aortic aneurysm, the GNRI is one of the important indicator for predicting postoperative complications.

Objective To compare scar and incision satisfaction between Prolene polypropylene suture and conventional silk suture for dermal suture in high ligation and stripping of primary great saphenous varicose vein. Methods A total of 83 patients who met the inclusion criteria were admitted in the West China Hospital, including 27 males and 56 females. The average age was 46.7 years old, ranging from 30 to 63 years old. Forty-two patients were grade C2 and 41 were grade C3 according to the CEAP grading. Patients were divided into a polypropylene suture group (even number,n=45) and a silk suture group (odd number,n=38) according to admission date order. Prolene 5-0 polypropylene suture was used for dermal suture in the patients of the polypropylene suture group and 1# silk suture in the patients of the silk suture group. The pigments of incision area and suture area and their widths, and the points of Patient and Observer Scar Assessment Scale score (POSAS) and patient and observer satisfaction score of incision were observed on month 6 for following-up. Results ① The gender, age, body mass index, and proportion of C2 of the CEAP grading or smoking had no significant difference between these two groups (P>0.05). ② All the operations were successful and all the patients were followed up. All the incisions healed well and had no infection. There was a few subcutaneous hematoma in one incisionof the 2 patients on day 3 after operation in the two groups, which markedly improved after dressing treatment. The sutures of all the patients were removed on day 14 after operation. ③ The pigment of incision area and its width, and the points of POSAS had no significant differences between the two groups (P>0.05). The pigment of suture area and its width, and the points of patient and observer satisfaction score of the incision in the polypropylene suture group were significantly better than those in the silk suture group (P<0.05). Conclusion Prolene polypropylene suture is preference to conventional silk suture in aesthetic results and patient satisfaction for dermal suture of great saphenous varicose vein surgery.
