ObjectiveTo investigate the protective mechanism of prostaglandin E1 against hepatic ischemia reperfusion injury.MethodsUsing 45minute ischemiareperfusion rat model in normal temperature, PGE1 was injected into portal vein before ischemia. An hour later blood was taken from portal vein to examine the enzyme levels, including GOT, GPT, LDH and TNFα, ET1. The alteration of pathological morphology of the ischemia lobe was observed.ResultsThe three enzemes, TNFα, ET1 levels of ischemiareperfusion group were significantly higher than those of the control group (P＜0.01). The indices of the PGE1 group were much lower than those of the ischemiareperfusion group (P＜0.01), but little higher than those of the control group (P＞0.05). The control group had obvious alteration in pathological morphology, but only slight alteration in PGE1 group, compared with the control group. ConclusionPGE1 protects against ischemiareperfusion injury of the liver.
ObjectiveTo investigate the clinicopathological features, diagnosis and treatment of invasive micropapillary carcinoma (IMPC) of the breast.MethodThe relevant literatures at home and abroad in recent years about the clinical features, pathological features and diagnosis and treatment of IMPC were reviewed.ResultsIMPC is in low incidence and mostly in mixture. Because the clinical manifestations of IMPC and invasive ductal carcinoma of breast are basically similar, only the typical pathological features in pathological examination can confirm the diagnosis as " inside-out growth pattern” and " morula-like clusters of cancer cells surrounded by clear stromal spaces”.ConclusionsIMPC is a special subtype of breast invasive carcinoma, which should be pay enough attention to it in clinic due to its unique microscopic morphology, high vessel invasiveness and high lymph node metastasis rate, high malignancy, poor prognosis and so on.
Objective To evaluate the role of preoperative 64 multi-detector spiral CT (MDCT) in predicting the extent of radical resection for advanced gastric cancer (AGC)． MethodsThe imaging data of 70 patients with AGC were collected and analyzed. The N2 lymph node metastasis was predicted by the MDCT indications, and compared with that postoperative pathological results. Results Sixty-two patients were treated with surgical intervention. The sensitivity, specificity, and accuracy of N2 positive prediction by MDCT was 92.0% (46/50), 75.0% (9/12) and 88.7% (55/62), respectively. Extended resection was performed in 81.6% (40/49) patients who were predicted as N2 positive, and D2 resection was performed in 92.3% (12/13) patients who were predicted as N2 negative.Conclusion The MDCT is a valuable technique to predict N2 lymph node metastasis, and to determine the extent of resection for AGC.
Objective To explore the effects of bile from anomalous parcreaticobiliary ductal union (APBDU) patients on the growth of hunan cells of bile ducts, and the relationship between APBDU with bile duct carcinoma. Methods Bile sample from APBDU patients and normal persons were used for cells of bile ducts. The proliferative effect of bile was measured by mathabenzthiazuron (MTT) assay; Cell cycle and apoptosis were analyzed by flow cytometry (FCM); Expression level of c-erbB-2 was detected by Western blot assay. Results Bile from APBDU patients significantly promoted the proliferation of human cells of bile ducts compared with normal bile （P＜0.05）. The effect was abolished by addition of COX-2 inhibitor or iNOS inhibitor. The percentage of S period cells in group pretreated with APBDU bile was significantly increased compared with pretreated with normal bile (P＜0.001). The expression level of c-erbB-2 was increased in cell pretreated with APBDU bile. Conclusion Bile from APBDU patients can promote the proliferation of normal cells of bile ducts and may have potential carcinogenesis.
Objective To investigate the clinical significance of visual identification and intraoperative neuromonitoring of recurrent laryngeal nerve (RLN) during thyroidectomy. Methods Totally 1 664 patients underwent thyroidectomy with RLN protection from January 2009 to December 2009 were included in this study, in which 1 447 cases were protected by visual identification only, and 217 complex thyroidectomy cases were protected by visual identification and intraoperative monitoring. Results By the “multisites, three steps” RLN exposure method, 1 417 cases （85.16%） were successfully recognized and the recognition time was (3.57±1.26) min. The recognition time in the rest 30 complex cases (2.07%) without intraoperative neuromonitoring was (17.02±5.48) min. By this method, the temporary RLN injury occurred in 23 cases (1.54%) and 15 cases (65.22%) recovered within 2 weeks. In patients undewent intraoperative neuromonitoring, the recognition rate was 100% (217/217) and recognition time was (2.18±0.67) min. The temporary RLN injury occurred in 4 cases (1.84%) and 3 cases (75.00%) recovered within 2 weeks. All temporary RLN injuries recovered within 1 month and no persistent RLN injury occurred. Conclusions Conventional visual identification can reduce the RLN injury, but not meet the needs of the RLN protection during complex thyroidectomy. The combination of visual identification and intraoperative neuromonitoring can further improve the recognition rate and shorten the recovery time of vocal cord dyskinesia.
Objective To investigate the reasonable indication of splenectomy in radical resection for advanced proximal gastric cancer (APGC). Methods Fifty patients with APGC were studied and classified into total gastrectomy with splenectomy (TGS) group (n=18) and total gastrectomy without splenectomy (TG) group (n=32). The operation time, hospitalized duration, complications, and lymphe node metastasis at the spleen hilus were compared between two groups. Results The operation time, hospitalized duration and subphrenic infection rate in the TGS group were significantly higher than those in the TG group (Plt;0.05). The rate of lymph node metasitasis of No.10 and No.11 in the TG group was not different from that in TGS group (Pgt;0.05). Conclusion Direct spleen and its vessel invasion are the reasonable indication of splenectomy in radical resection for APGC.
Objective To evaluate the clinical application of modified Orr Roux-en-Y type digestive tract reconstruction. Methods Thirty-eight patients with gastric cancer were randomly classified into modified group （accepted modified Orr Roux-en-Y type digestive tract reconstruction, 18 cases） and ρ group （accepted ρ type esophagojejunostomy, 20 cases） according to the date of operation. Operative time, blood loss in operation, complications after operation, emptying time of pouch, and change of body weight before and 3 months after operation were compared between two groups. Results Compared with the ρ group 〔(283±35) min〕, the operative time of modified group 〔(229±18) min〕 was significantly shorter （Plt;0.05）. The holo-empyting time of pouch in modified group 〔(35.7±4.9) min〕 was longer than that in ρ group 〔(3.0±0.5) min〕, Plt;0.01. Blood loss in operation, complications after operation, and the body weight change had no statistical difference between two groups （Pgt;0.05）. Conclusion Modified Orr Roux-en-Y type reconstruction with a pouch function is useful in clinical application， which is not only easy to operate, but also can reduce the operative time and the complications.
