ABSTRACT
Objective To analyse the clinical effects on colon cancer with acute intestinal obstruction.Methods 56 patients with acute intestinal obstruction caused by colon cancer were studied retrospectively.The experience of diagnosis was summarized.Results 47 patients with acute intestinal obstruction caused by colon cancer received Stage Ⅰ tumor resection and the other 9 patients received different stages.54 patients healed (96.4％) and 1perioperative deaths (1.8 ％).Postoperative complications occurred in 18 cases (32.1％) including incision infection,intraperitoneal infection and intestinal fistula.Conclusion Stage Ⅰ tumor resection is feasible and safe surgical procedures for acute intestinal obstruction caused by colon cancer.
ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:It has been generally accepted that polypropylene mesh tension-free hernia repair may repair the inguinal hernia,but the clinical application is not wide.OBJECTIVE:To analyze retrospectively the effect of polypropylene mesh plug tension-free hernia repair versus the traditional herniorrhaphy for inguinal hernia.DESIGN,TIME AND SETTING:Case analysis was performed among 115 cases who underwent inguinal hernia in Department of General Surgery,Affiliated Xinhua Hospital of Hainan Medical College from March 2003 to October 2007.PARTICIPANTS:The involved patients were 76 males and 39 females,aged 26-81 years with a mean of 61.3.There were 78 cases with lateral indirect hernia,11 direct hernia,2 femoral hernia,and 12 bilateral indirect hernia.35 of 115 patients were operated with polypropylene mesh tension-free hernia repair and 80 patients were provided at traditional repair method.Mesh cone hernia ring and patches were offered from Bard Company(USA).RESULTS:The size of hernia ring was selected based on the pattern number and amount of mesh plug.Transfixing suture was performed along the center and tip of hernial sac.Subsequent to the mesh plug implantation,the flap was processed into interrupted suture with hernia ring at a interval of 0.5-0.8 cm.Traditional herniorrhaphy was chiefly consisted of Bassini,McWay and Shouldice operative types.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES:Operative duration,out of bed activity time and average hospitalization time were observed.Utility of anodyne,uroschesis and scrotal swelling were detected after operation.RESULTS:All patients were cured.There were 35 patients operated with mesh tension-free repair of inguinal hernia.The operation mean time was 42 minutes.The mean time of getting out of bed was 8 hours after operation.The mean hospitalization time was 6.2 days.There were 2 patients with uroschesis,3 patients utilizing the anodyne,and 1 patient with scrotal swelling after operation,without complications about wound infection and scrotal hydrocele.No recurrence occurred by follow-up visit of 6-36 months after operation.Eighty patients operated with the traditional herniorrhaphy.The operation mean time was 56 minutes.The mean time of getting out of bed was 68 hours after operation.The mean hospitalization time was 11.6 days.There were 9 patients with uroschesis,37 patients utilizing the anodyne and 1 patient with scrotal swelling after operation,without complications about wound infection and scrotal hydrocele.Nine patients were recurrent by follow-up visit of 6-36 months after operation.CONCLUSION:Polypropylene mesh plug tension-free repair for inguinal hernia is suitable to repair and enhance the pectineus porose area,with great histocompatibility.Thus,it is obviously ascendant to the traditional herniorrhaphy.
