ABSTRACT
Objective To analyze the handling measure in period of ambo-operation and postoperative care of patients with abdominal surgery in advanced age over 80 years. Methods A retrospective analysis of 102 integrity data of patients with abdominal surgery in advanced age over 80 years was done. Results 100 patients recovery and discharged. The incidence of postoperative complications was 55.9% (55/102). Postoperative death was oberserved in two patients. Conclusion In patients over 80 years old,handling measure in period of ambo-operation is very impor-tant. Degeneration of organ function and more comorbidities made operation more dangerous. A well preoperative prep-aration and postoperative care, an intensive treatment of comorbiditius, the prevention of apoplexia and reducing the chance of emergency operation, will make operation more effective.
ABSTRACT
Objective To estimate the clinical effect and application value of percutaneous transluminal angioplasty and stenting (PTAS) on patients with lower extremity atherosclerotic occlusive disease (LEAOD). Methods Percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PAT) and PATS were performed on 127 patients with diabetic lower limb arteriosclerosis. Results Total achievement ratio was 97.64% (124/127). PTAS was failed in 3 patients, clinical symptoms disappeared or improved in 124 patients. The average ankle brachial index (ABI) before and after operation was 0.35 (0.11-0.58) and 0.87 (0.67-1.06), respectively. The difference in ABI before and after operation was significant (P<0.05). During 3-60 months following-up, arteria iliaca remained open in 53 patients, and no recurrence of clinical symptom was found. At 6, 12, 36 and 60 months after operation, the encumbered superficial femoral artery kept smooth bloodstream with a proportion of 97.78%, 91.11%, 84.44%, 75.56% in 45 patients in upper 2/3 segment and 89.66%, 79.31%, 72.41%, 65.52% in 29 patients in infer 1/3 segment, respectively. Conclusion Long-term vessel recanalization can be obtained effectively and haemodynamics index be remarkably improved with PTA and PTAS in LEAOD patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the perioperative management of abdominal surgery in patients aged over 80 years. Methods The cliuical data of 25 patients aged over 80 years undergoing abdominal surgery were analysed retrospectively. Results Of the 25 patients, 8 subjected to biliary surgery, 13 gastiic cancer or cardiac cancer surgery, 1 esophageal cancer surgery, 3 intestinal surgery. 24 patients(96%) were cured; one died postoperalively.Conclusions In over aged patieats, they have more coexite diseases, and more postoperative complications, so extensive perioperative management, choice of selective operation, reducing of emergent operation, and giving albumin to help the recovery of tissues are essential.
