From 1972 to 1990,121 cases of bone tumor were treated by segmental resection of tumor and followed by artifical joint re- placement. All of the prostheses were designed and manufactured by our hospital. One hundred and two cases were followed up for an average of 7.4 years and the curative rate with the affected limbs preserved was 85.28%. The indication, the advantages and disadvantages, the material and the type of artifical joints, and the assessment of functional reconstruction following operation were discussed.
ObjectiveTo investigate the effectiveness of levator muscle resection combined with Mustarde’s double Z-plasty to correct blepharophimosis-ptosis-epicanthus inversus syndrome (BPES).MethodsBetween March 2015 and June 2017, one-stage operation of levator muscle resection combined with Mustarde’s double Z-plasty were performed on 26 children with bilateral BPES. There were 16 boys and 10 girls with an average age of 7 years (range, 4-14 years). All patients marked the four typical signs of BPES. There were 7 cases accompanied with a low nasal bridge, and 20 cases with amblyopia and strabismus. The length of eye fissure was (19.5±4.5) mm, the width of eye fissure was (2.5±1.6) mm, the diameter of inner canthus was (42.1±6.5) mm, and the muscular strength of levator palpebrae superioris was (5.5±1.3) mm.ResultsAll the incisions healed by first intention. Twenty-three patients were followed up 2-12 months, with an average of 10 months. Among which, 2 cases were less corrected, 3 cases were over corrected, 6 cases had poor curvature of the eyelid. No eyelid internal and external pronation or keratitis occurred. Amelioration of blepharoptosis and epicanthus was achieved in the other patients, and the double eyelid fold was naturally smooth. At 7 days after operation, the length of eye fissure was (27.2±1.9) mm, the width of eye fissure was (12.5±1.3) mm, and diameter of inner canthus was (29.4±2.6) mm, which were superior to preoperative values (t=0.127, P=0.042; t=0.341, P=0.029; t=0.258, P=0.038). There was no angular deformity caused by the width and length regressions of eye fissures.ConclusionThe levator muscle resection combined with Mustarde’s double Z-plasty can effectively correct BPES and obtain good effectiveness.
ObjectiveTo summarize the diagnosis and treatment process of a patient who underwent laparoscopic local excision of duodenal papillary tumor, and to explore the safety and feasibility of this surgery. MethodThe clinicopathologic characteristics and surgical procedure of the patient with duodenal papillary neuroendocrine tumor admitted to the West China Hospital of Sichuan University in June 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. ResultsThe patient underwent the laparoscopic local excision of duodenal papillary tumor + in situ cholangiojejunostomy and pancreaticojejunostomy. The operation lasted about 3 hours, the blood loss was about 20 mL, and the patient exhausted on the 3rd day after the operation. On the 7th postoperative day, the gastric tube was pulled out and oral feeding was started. On the 8th day, the plasma drainage tube was pulled out and the patient was discharged smoothly. There was no duodenal fistula, bleeding, wound infection, and other complications. After 6 months of follow-up, the general condition of this patient was good, and no tumor recurrence or metastasis was found. ConclusionLaparoscopic local excision is an appropriate option for benign or low-grade malignancies involving the duodenal papillary tumor.
Objective To assess the safety and efficacy of holmium laser resection for superficial bladder cancer (HoLRBT) compared with electrocautery transurethral resection of bladder tumor (TURBT). Methods Such databases as MEDLINE, EMbase, CBM, and The Cochrane Library were searched by computer to include the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) about holmium laser and transurethral electroresection for treating superficial bladder cancer. Meta-analyses were performed by RevMan 5.0 software after the data were abstracted and the quality was evaluated. Results Nine RCTs involving 1 323 patients were included. The results of meta-analyses showed in comparison with the TURBT, there were significant differences in HoLRBT for less intraoprative bleeding volume (WMD= –6.04, 95%CI –6.90 to –5.19), shorter mean bladder irrigating time (WMD= –14.99, 95%CI –17.58 to –12.40), shorter time of indwelling urethral catheter (WMD= –2.46, 95%CI –3.59 to –1.34), fewer postoperative complications such as the obturator nerve reflex (OR=0.03, 95%CI 0.01 to 0.09), fewer events of bladder perforation (OR=0.12, 95%CI 0.05 to 0.31) and lower postoperative recurrence rate (OR=0.70, 95%CI 0.52 to 0.96). Conclusions The current evidence shows that HoLRBT is a feasible, safe, and effective alternative for the management of superficial bladder cancer because of few damages to bladder tissues and less operation bleeding.
ObjectiveTo summarize experience of surgical treatment for hilar cholangiocarcinoma. MethodsFrom January 2009 to July 2011, 87 patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma were enrolled into the department of Biliary and Pancreatic Surgery of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University. The intra-and post-operative results were analyzed. ResultsOut of 87 cases, the resection rate was 67.8% (59/87). The radical (R0) resection rate was 48.3% (42/87), R1 resection rate was 11.5% (10/87), palliative (R2) resection rate was 8.0% (7/87). The patients were successfully got through the perioperative period, threre was no operative mortality. 1-year, 3-year, 5-year survival rates of the R0 resection group were 92.9% (39/42), 31.0% (13/42), 19.0% (8/42), respectively. No patient was alive more than 3 years in the groups of R2 resection and internal or external drainage. 1-year and 2-year survival rates of the R1 resection group were 70.0% (7/10) and 20.0% (2/10), respectively. 1-year survival rate of the R2 resection group was 57.1% (4/7). 1-year survival rate of the internal or external drainage group was 35.7% (10/28). 1-year, 3-year, and 5-year survival rates of the R1 resection group and R2 resection group were significantly lower than those of the R0 resection group (P<0.05). ConclusionFor hilar cholangiocarcinoma, radical resection is the only method to cure. Preoperative evaluation, percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage so as to relieve obstruction of biliary tract, proper liver resection and intraoperative pathology for resection margin are imperative guarantees lead to radical resection. Palliative resection might prolong survival time and improve quality of life.
ObjectiveTo summarize the surgical experience of perineal hernia (PH) repairment after a laparoscopic abdominoperineal resection (APR) with synthetic mesh.MethodsThe clinical data of 4 cases of PH after APR from 2009 to 2015 underwent surgery were analyzed retrospectively. We applied synthetic mesh for the reconstruction of the pelvic floor.ResultsAll of the 4 cases recovered smoothly, with no complication happened. The blood loss during the operation was 50–100 mL, the operative time was 1.0–1.5 hours, the postoperative time of getting out of bed was delayed to 5–7 days after the operation and discharged after 10–14 days. Patients were advised to use transperineal bandages or rigid underpants to lift up the perineum to reduce tension after discharge. No recurrence of perineal hernia or the tumor was found on physical examination and abdominal pelvic CT scan during the 24-month follow-up.ConclusionsIt brings better effect and less trauma after the operation by using transperineal repair of PH with synthetic mesh. We suggest that this technique should probably be the first choice for treating an uncomplicated PH that occurs after a laparoscopic APR.
Objective To analyze the risk factors inducing tumor cells exfoliating during radical resection of rectal cancer. Methods Sixty patients who were diagnosed as rectal cancer from May 2006 to November 2007 and given radical operations were assigned prospectively in this study. Before cutting the rectal stump below the tumor, saline was instilled into rectum to irrigate the stump. Collected irrigating fluids were sent to pathology laboratory, and the exfoliated malignant cells were tested by HE （haematoxylin and eosin） dyeing and common smear technique. The results of examines were collected and statistical analysis, including a Logistic regression model, was performed. Results Exfoliated malignant cells were found in 27 samples. By univariate analysis, the statistically significant factors defining a high risk of exfoliating were age, tumor size, TNM stage, operation time and operation method (Plt;0.05). Only TNM stage， operation time and operation method were confirmed by Logistic regression analysis to independently result in a statistically significant increased risk of exfoliating. Conclusion Irrigating the rectal stump before cutting down the tumor is essential to avoid local recurrence. The effects of TNM stage, tumor size and operation time are important. Although the laparoscopic surgery is more predominant than conventional surgery for non-neoplasma technology, irrigating is an important process.
Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of preoperative feeding artery occlusion on vertebral resection of invasive vertebral hemangioma. Methods The clinical data of 20 patients with invasive vertebral hemangioma who received posterior lumbar vertebral body resection, bone grafting, fusion and internal fixation between March 2010 and March 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. According to whether feeding artery occlusion was performed before operation, the patients were divided into group A (11 cases, tumor feeding artery occlusion before operation) and group B (9 cases, no tumor feeding artery occlusion before operation). There was no significant difference in gender, age, lesion segment, and disease duration between the two groups (P>0.05). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage volume, blood transfusion volume, and ambulant time after surgery, hospitalization time, and deep venous thrombosis of lower extremities were recorded and compared between the two groups. Pain improvement was evaluated by visual analogue scale (VAS) score. Results The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, blood transfusion volume, and ambulant time after surgery were significantly less in group A than those in group B (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in postoperative drainage volume and hospitalization time between the two groups (P>0.05). Five patients (3 in group A and 2 in group B) suffered from pleural tear due to intraoperative pleural adhesions. Closed thoracic drainage tubes were placed immediately after suture and extubated on 3-5 days. Both groups were followed up 1-1.5 years, with an average of 1.35 years. In group B, 1 patient died of pulmonary embolism at 7 days after operation; and 2 patients developed deep venous thrombosis of lower extremity after operation, who were treated with inferior vena cava filter and thrombolytic therapy, and recovered well after operation. The local pain of the other patients was significantly relieved after operation, and the pain disappeared at 1 month after operation. The VAS scores of the two groups at 3 days after operation were significantly improved when compared with those before operation (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in VAS scores between the two groups before operation and at 3 days after operation (P>0.05). Three patients (2 in group A and 1 in group B) who had neurological symptoms were significantly relieved after surgery. Bone healing was achieved in both groups at 1 year after operation. No fracture or loosening of internal fixator occurred during follow-up. Conclusion Nutritional artery occlusion before vertebrectomy for invasive vertebral hemangioma can effectively reduce intraoperative blood loss, operation time, perioperative blood transfusion, and other perioperative complications.
We reviewed the clinical studies on drug therapy for gallbladder cancer and expounded on the current situation of conversion therapy for gallbladder cancer. Gallbladder cancer was usually diagnosed late, with high malignancy, low surgical resection rate, and poor prognosis. With the development of conversion therapy, systemic therapy combined with radical resection had effectively improved the surgical resection rate and prognosis of gallbladder cancer patients. At present, most of the published conversion therapies for gallbladder cancer were mainly retrospective researches, lacking large multicenter prospective research, and the treatment plan was still based on chemotherapy, lacking the research of targeted therapy in combination with immunotherapy. It is expected that more high-quality clinical trials can be made first-line recommendations for the conversion therapy of gallbladder cancer.
ObjectiveTo observe effect and safety of interstitial chemotherapy with 5-fluorouracil sustained release agent in radical operation of colorectal cancer. MethodsOne hundred and sixty patients with colorectal cancer from October 2011 to December 2013 were randomly divided into observation group and control group according to an incomplete random method, 78 cases of them were in the observation group and 82 cases of them were in the control group. All the patients were performed radical resection of colorectal cancer. The abdominal cavity and pelvic cavity were washed after surgery. 5-fluorouracil sustained release agent was implanted in the observation group patients for interstitial chemotherapy, the implant site was at the tumor resection area and the mesenteric artery. Routine chemotherapy was performed in these two groups after operation. The postoperative complications were observed. The postoperative local recurrence rate, liver metastasis rate, and 24-month survival rate were recorded. ResultsThe rates of abdominal complications and toxic effects had no significant differences between these two groups (P > 0.05). The rates of 12-month and 24-month local recurrence and the rate of liver metastasis in the observation group were significant lower than those in the control group[1.3% (1/78) versus 8.5% (7/82), x2=8.934, P=0.023; 5.2% (4/78) versus 23.2% (19/82), x2=14.834, P=0.004; 10.3% (8/78) versus 18.3% (15/82), x2=12.034, P=0.016]. The rate of 24-month survival in the observation group was significant higher than that in the control group[94.9% (74/78) versus 84.1% (69/82), x2=11.465, P=0.010]. ConclusionThe good safety of interstitial chemotherapy with 5-fluorouracil sustained release agent could effectively decrease local recurrence rate and liver metastasis rate of colorectal cancer after radical operation and improve survival time of patients.
