ObjectiveTo introduce the current study of the metastatic mode and operation methods in advanced gallbladder carcinoma. MethodsThe literatures about metastatic mode and operation methods of advanced gallbladder carcinoma in recent 5 years were reviewed.ResultsLymph node and hepatic invasion were the main mode of advanced gallbladder carcinoma. The Japanese Society of Biliary Surgery （JSBS） classification to gallbladder carcinoma was more reasonable than the UICC classification. The survival rate after radical resection was higher than that after cholecytectomy in patients with T2n1-2M0. In the patients that tumor extended adjacent organs but the lymph node metastatic localized within n2, extended radical resection provided a survival advantage. If the patients’ tumor was not resectable or who had lymph node metastasis beyond n3, the benefit of extended radical resection seemed limited.ConclusionIn the carefully selected patients, extended radical resection will improve the prognosis of advanced gallbladder carcinoma.
Objective To evaluate the long-term efficacy of extended and standard surgery for carcinoma of head of pancreas by using meta-analysis. Methods Related articls （1990-2012） were searched in Pubmed， WOS， Embase， WanFang， SinoMed， and CNKI. Study on quality of these literatures were evaluated by using the Jadad score. The patients with pancreatic head carcinoma underwent extended radical resection and standard radical resection were classified to treatment group and control group， respectively. The mortality， morbidity， and survival rates of 1-， 3-， and 5-year after operation in the two groups were evaluated by using meta-analysis. Results A total of 11 studies fitted the selection crit-eria， including 744 patients. Among them 357 cases were in standard radical resection group and 387 cases in the extended radical resection group. The results of meta-analysis showed that： ①The morbidity after operation did not significantly differed between the extended radical resection group and standard radical resection group （OR=1.360， 95% CI=0.990-1.870， P=0.050）. ②The mortality of the two groups did not significantly differed （OR=0.870， 95% CI=0.430-1.760，P=0.700）. ③There were no significant differences in survival rates of 1-， 3-， and 5-year between the two groups （OR=0.880， 95% CI=0.450-1.720， P=0.710；OR=0.940， 95% CI=0.590-1.480，P=0.710；OR=1.000， 95% CI=0.600-1.67， P=1.000）. Conclusion Compared with standard radical resection， extended radical resection can not improve the survival rates of 1-， 3-， and 5-year after operation， and can’t reduce the mortality and morbidity after operation
Objective To investigate the impact of conversion to open in laparoscopic rectal cancer radical resection (LRR) on postoperative recovery. Methods The data from Feb. 2003 to Feb. 2007 of 176 cases who were given LRR and 32 cases receiving conversion in LRR (CRR) were analyzed retrospectively, and were compared about operation time, hospitalization time, hospitalization expenses, intraoperative blood loss, recovery time of bowel movement and postoperative complications with 59 cases of open rectal cancer radical resection (ORR). Results There were no differences among LRR, CRR and ORR about operation time, hospitalization time, intraoperative blood loss and recovery time of bowel movement (Pgt;0.05). The hospitalization expenses of LRR and CRR were higher than that of ORR (P=0.001, P=0.001), there was no difference between CRR and LRR (P=0.843). But the postoperative complications rate of ORR was higher than those of LRR and CRR （P=0.023,P=0.004）. Conclusion Compared with ORR, LRR has relatively conversion rate, and then increases the hospitalization expenses.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the curative effect of laparoscopic assisted and open D2 radical resection in treatment of advanced gastric cancer. MethodsThe clinical data of 76 cases performed by laparoscopic assisted D2 radical resection (laparoscopic group) and 104 cases performed by open operation (open group) from October 2010 to October 2012 in our center were retrospective analized.Operation related index, postoperative recovery, and extent of radical resection of tumor of 2 groups were compared. ResultsThe operative time of the laparoscopic group[(192.5±14.8) min]was longer than that open group[(171.5±16.5) min, P < 0.05].But the blood loss, postoperative drainage, length of incision, and hospital stay of the laparoscopic group were significantly less or shorter than those of open group (P < 0.05).There were no significant difference in postoperative complications and extent of radical resection of tumor between the 2 groups (P > 0.05).There were no residual tumor in distal margin and operatiive death case in both 2 groups. ConclusionComparing with open operation, the laparoscopic assisted surgery for advanced gastric cancer could achieve the same clinical outcomes, and obvious advantage of minimal invasion.
Objective To explore the feasibility and short-term effectiveness of the modified radical resection and reconstruction in the treatment of malignant proximal humerus tumor. Methods The relevant anatomic data from 30 normal adult shoulder joint MRI were measured to analyze the feasibility of modified radical resection and reconstruction surgery in the treatment of malignant proximal humerus tumor. Five patients with malignant proximal humerus tumor were treated by using the modified radical resection and reconstruction surgery between March 2012 and January 2016. There were 1 male and 4 females, aged from 9 to 69 years (median, 46 years). There were 4 cases of osteosarcoma (Enneking IIA in 2 cases and Enneking IIB in 2 cases) and 1 case of metastatic carcinoma (moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma). The disease duration was 7 to 12 months (mean, 9 months). Recurrence of tumor was observed after operation, and the shoulder function was assessed according to Enneking skeletal muscle tumor function scoring system. Results Radiographic results showed that modified radical resection and reconstruction surgery was feasible, which was in allowable range of the maximum longitudinal diameter ( < 29.8 mm) and depth ( < 4 mm). The operation was successfully completed in all 5 cases, and pathological examination suggested that purposes of radical resection had achieved. All patients were followed up 3 to 49 months (mean, 15.6 months). One patient had local recurrence at 12 months after operation, and a shoulder joint amputation was performed; the other 4 patients had good prosthesis survival. At last follow-up, the function of the shoulder joint was obviously recovered when compared with preoperative function; Enneking's skeletal muscle tumor function score was 25.8 points (range, 24 to 27 points). Conclusion Modified radical resection and reconstruction surgery is feasible for the treatment of proximal humerus tumor, and it can maintain a good early shoulder function.
Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and advantages of the wide local excision for Paget’s disease involing the penis and scrotum by comparing with the radical excision. Methods A retrospective analysis was made on the clinical data of 41 patients with Paget’s disease involving penis and scrotum who met the inclusion criteria between November 2010 and August 2015. Among them, 14 patients received wide local excision (group A), and 27 patients received radical excision (group B). No significant difference was found in age, course of disease, and lesion site between two groups (P>0.05). The recurrence rate, operative time, times of intraoperative frozen section pathology, hospitalization time, grade of wound healing, appearance and functions satisfaction were recorded and compared between two groups. Results The operative time and hospitalization time in group A were significantly shorter than those in group B (P<0.05); the times of intraoperative frozen section pathology in group A were significantly less than that in group B (P<0.05). All patients were followed up 13 to 67 months (mean, 35.5 months) in group A and 11 to 70 months (mean, 38.8 months) in group B. Grades A, B, and C wound healing was obtained in 11 cases, 2 cases, and 1 case of group A and in 12 cases, 7 cases, and 8 cases of group B respectively, showing significant difference between two groups (Z=–2.102, P=0.036). The 5-year recurrence rate was 28.6% (4/14) in group A and 22.2% (6/27) in group B, showing no significant difference (χ2=0.202, P=0.654). The score of satisfaction in appearance and functions in group A was significantly higher than that in group B (t=–2.810, P=0.008). Conclusion Paget’s disease involving penis and scrotum has a slow disease progression and good prognosis. Wide local excision can relieve symptoms effectively and obviously decrease perioperative risk in elderly patients, with no significant increase of the recurrence rate.
Objective To explore the influencing factors for pulmonary infection after radical resection of colon cancer. Methods A cohort study included 56 patients who underwent radical resection of colon cancer in People’s Hospital of Daye City from Oct. 2014 to Oct. 2016 were followed-up prospectively, to observe the occurrence of pulmonary infection, and collectting the related factors for pulmonary infection in addition. Results The clinical data of 53 patients were finalized and the clinical data of these patients were complete. Among them, 13 patients suffered from pulmonary infection after radical resection of colon cancer, and 40 patients had no obvious exacerbation and no complicated pulmonary infection. Results of logistic regression showed that, value of forced expiratory volume in1 second/forced vital capacity (OR=1.174, P=0.033), operative time (OR=1.638, P=0.012), levels of postoperative copeptin (OR=1.328, P=0.032), and procalcitonin (OR=1.465, P=0.042) were risk factors for pulmonary infection after radical resection of colon cancer. Receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC) showed that, operative time was 6.207-hour, postoperative copeptin level was 10.420 pmol/L, and the postoperative procalcitonin level was 3.676 ng/mL, which had the best predictive effect on predicting pulmonary infection after radical resection of colon cancer. Conclusions Value of forced expiratory volume in 1 second/forced vital capacity, operative time, levels of copeptin and procalcitonin after operation are the independent influencing factors for pulmonary infection after radical resection of colon cancer, and it has best prognostic outcome when the operative time is 6.207-hour, postoperative copeptin level is 10.420 pmol/L, and the postoperative procalcitonin level is 3.676 ng/mL.
Objective To compare the clinical efficacy and safety of different surgical methods in the treatment of early-stage gallbladder carcinoma (GBC). Methods The clinical data of 43 patients with early-stage GBC who received treatment in Peking University People’s Hospital from Jan. 2010 to Dec. 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the surgical methods, the patients were divided into laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC)+lymph node dissection (LND)+radiofrequency ablation (RA) group, open cholecystectomy (OC)+LND+RA group, and OC+LND+liver resection (LA) group. Operation duration, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative hospital stay, surgical complications, and long-term survival were compared among the 3 groups. Results All the 43 patients performed successful surgery without perioperative death. ① Operation duration and postoperative hospital stay. The differences of operation duration and postoperative hospital stay among the 3 groups were statistically significant (P<0.05). Compared with the LC+LND+RA group, operation duration and postoperative hospital stay of the OC+LND+RA group and the OC+LND+LR group were longer (P<0.017), but there was no statistically significant difference between the OC+LND+RA group and the OC+LND+LR group (P>0.017). ② Intraoperative blood loss. The difference of intraoperative blood loss among the 3 groups was statistically significant (P<0.001). Compared with the OC+LND+LR group, the intraoperative blood loss was lower in the LC+LND+RA group and the OC+LND+RA group (P<0.017), but there was no significant difference between the LC+LND+RA group and the OC+LND+RA group (P=0.172). ③ Postoperative complications. There was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative complications among the 3 groups (P=0.326). ④ Long-term survival. There was no significant difference in survival curves among the 3 groups (P=0.057). Conclusions The method of cholecystectomy combined with LND and RA of gallbladder bed can achieve the radical effect on early-stage GBC (Tis–T2). Laparoscopic surgery, in particular, has shorter operation duration and faster recovery.
Objective To analyze clinical value of early enteral nutrition following radical resection of gastric cancer. Methods Seventy-six patients with gastric cancer underwent radical resection from May 1, 2016 to July 1, 2016 in the West China Hospital of Sichuan University were included according to the inclusion criteria and exclusion criteria, then were randomly divided into observation group (36 cases) and control group (40 cases). The patients in the observation group received the enteral nutrition on day 2 following the surgery, in the control group received the conventional management. The gastrointestinal recovery and the adverse reaction were compared in these two groups. The preoperative and postoperative laboratory indicators and the body weight of the patients in both groups were analyzed. Results ① The general data such as age, gender, and body weight had no significant differences in these two groups (P>0.05). ② The first anus exhaust time and the first defecation time of the observation group were significantly shorter than those of the control group (P<0.05). ③ The adverse reaction rate of the observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.05). ④ On admission, the serum albumin, urea nitrogen, creatinine, and lymphocyte count had no significant differences in these two groups (P>0.05). On day 5 after the operation, the serum albumin of the observation group was significantly higher than that of the control group (P<0.05). ⑤ The body weight had no significant difference in these two groups before the operation (P>0.05), which in the observation group was significantly heavier than that of the control group on day 30 after the operation (P<0.05). Conclusion Preliminary results of limited cases in this study show that early enteral nutrition following radical resection of gastric cancer is safe and effective, it could promote gastrointestinal function resumption and effectively improve nutritional status.
Objective To investigate the strategy of treatment and prevention of hemorrhage after radical resection of hilar cholangiocarcinoma. Method Reviewing the related literatures at home and abroad in recent years, to summarize the progress of treatment and prevention of hemorrhage after radical resection of hilar cholangiocarcinoma. Results We should clear the postoperative bleeding time, extent, cause, and location, to help the clinician to choose the appropriate timing of intervention and treatment. The patients with early hemorrhage and mild degree hemorrhage could be treated conservatively. If patients with severe hemorrhage and hemodynamic disorders, surgical intervention must be decisive. Patients with late hemorrhage would have serious consequences, and these patients should receive interventional or surgical treatment as early as possible. Conclusions For patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma after radical resection, doctors need to do accurate preoperative evaluation, meticulous operation, and intensive management after operation, to reduce the incidence of hemorrhage after radical resection of hilar cholangiocarcinoma. If the postoperative hemorrhage occurs, the cause, location, time, and degree of hemorrhage should be clearly defined to facilitate clinicians to make rapid clinical decisions and to develop treatment programs.
