ABSTRACT
Objective:To compare the short-term clinical outcomes of patients undergoing laparoscopic versus open radical resection of hilar cholangiocarcinoma.Methods:The clinical data of 91 patients who underwent radical resection for hilar cholangiocarcinoma at our hospital from January 2018 to June 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. There were 48 males and 43 females, with aged of (61.51±7.18) years old. The patients were divided into the laparotomy group ( n=59) and the laparoscopic group ( n=32) based on the operations they received. The general data, perioperative data and complications of the two groups were compared. Results:There was no perioperative death in the laparoscopic group, but one patient died of abdominal bleeding in the laparotomy group. All other patients recovered from postoperative complications with treatment. When compared with patients in the laparotomy group, the operation time [(381.28±102.37) vs. (296.81±84.74) min] and biliary intestinal anastomosis time [(17.81±2.81) vs. (15.19±2.27) min] were significantly longer in the laparoscopic group. However, the postoperative hospital stay [(12.34±3.46) vs. (15.10 ± 4.48) d], bed rest time [(3.38±0.66) vs. (5.24±0.88) d], analgesic time [(4.31±0.90) vs. (6.22±1.26) d] and postoperative time to first feeding [(3.91±0.89) vs. (5.32±0.86) d] were significantly lower ( P<0.05). There were no significant differences in amounts of intraoperative bleeding, numbers of lymph node harvested and incidences of postoperative complications between groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Under the premise of strictly indications, laparoscopic radical resection of hilar cholangiocarcinoma was safe and feasible, and had certain advantages in promoting the rapid recovery of patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the application value of peripheral blood circulating tumor cell (CTC) classification in the prediction of preoperative microvascular invasion of hepato-cellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods:The retrospective case-control study was conducted. The clinico-pathological data of 102 HCC patients who were admitted to Zhengzhou University People's Hospital from September 2018 to September 2020 were collected. There were 71 males and 31 females, aged from 29 to 80 years, with a median age of 57 years. Observation indicators: (1) surgical situations; (2) results of CTC detection and microvascular invasion in HCC patients; (3) results of CTC classification and the best cut-off value of CTC classification in the prediction of microvascular invasion in HCC; (4) influencing factors for microvascular invasion in HCC; (5) comparison of clinicopathological features in HCC patients with different cell counts in mesenchymal phenotype of CTC (M-CTC). Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the independent sample t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range) or M( Q1, Q3), and comparison between groups was analyzed using the nonparametric rank sum U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the chi-square test. The receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve was used to determine the best cut-off value for the risk of microvascular invasion in patients. Univariate and multivariate analysis were performed using the Logistic regression model. Results:(1) Surgical situations. All 102 patients underwent surgery successfully, including 17 cases undergoing local hepatectomy, 43 cases under-going segmentectomy, 22 cases undergoing hepatic lobectomy, 13 cases undergoing hemilectomy and 7 cases undergoing enlarged hemilectomy. The operation time and the volume of intraoperative blood loss were 235(147,293)minutes and 300(110,500)mL of the 102 patients, respectively. (2) Results of CTC detection and microvascular invasion in HCC patients. Of 102 patients, there were 36 casas with epithelial phenotype of CTC (E-CTC), 86 cases with hybrid phenotype of CTC (H-CTC), 30 cases with M-CTC, respectively, and the total CTC (T-CTC) were positive in 89 cases. Results of postoperative pathological examination showed that there were 40 cases with micro-vascular inva-sion and 62 cases without microvascular invasion in the 102 patients. Of the 40 patients with micro-vascular invasion, the count of E-CTC, H-CTC, M-CTC and T-CTC were 0(0,1) per 5 mL, 4(2,5) per 5 mL, 1(0,2) per 5 mL and 5(3,8) per 5mL, respectively. The above indicators of the 62 cases without microvascular invasion were 0(0,1) per 5 mL, 3(1,5) per 5 mL, 0(0,0) per 5 mL and 3(2,6) per 5 mL, respectively. There were significant differences in the count of M-CTC and T-CTC between patients with and without microvascular invasion ( Z=-4.83, -2.96, P<0.05). (3) Results of CTC classi-fication and the best cut-off value of CTC classification in the prediction of microvascular invasion in HCC. The ROC curve showed that best cut-off value of M-CTC and T-CTC counts in the prediction of microvascular invasion in HCC were 1 per 5 mL and 4 per 5 mL, respectively, with the area under curve, the corresponding specificity, sensitivity were 0.70 (95% confidence interval as 0.60-0.81, P<0.05), 75.8%, 62.9% and 0.67 (95% confidence interval as 0.57-0.78, P<0.05), 60.0%, 72.5%, respec-tively. (4) Influencing factors for microvascular invasion in HCC. Result of univariate analysis showed that alpha fetoprotein (AFP), aspartate aminotransferase (AST), tumor diameter, tumor number, tumor margin, Barcelona clinic liver cancer staging, M-CTC counts and T-CTC counts were related factors influencing microvascular invasion in HCC ( odds ratio=3.13, 0.43, 4.92, 5.65, 2.54, 2.93, 8.25, 4.47, 95% confidence interval as 1.34-7.33, 0.19-0.98, 2.09-11.58, 2.35-13.63, 1.13-5.75, 1.27-6.74, 3.13-21.75, 1.88-10.61, P<0.05). Result of multivariate analysis showed that tumor diameter >5 cm, tumor number as multiple and M-CTC counts ≥1 per 5 mL were independent risk factors influencing microvascular invasion in HCC ( odds ratio=2.97, 4.14, 4.36, 95% c onfidence interval as 1.01-8.70, 1.14-15.02, 1.36-13.97, P<0.05). (5) Comparison of clinicopathological features in HCC patients with different cell counts in M-CTC. The 102 HCC patients were divided into the high M-CTC group of 30 cases with M-CTC counts ≥1 per 5 mL and the low M-CTC group of 72 cases with M-CTC counts <1 per 5 mL, according to the best cut-off value of M-CTC counts. Cases with hepatitis, cases with AFP >400 μg/L, cases with AST >35 U/L, cases with irregular tumor margin, cases with tumor diameter >5 cm, cases with tumor number as multiple and cases with micro-vascular invasion were 22, 17, 13, 21, 18, 16 and 22 in the high M-CTC group of 30 cases. The above indicators were 35, 18, 48, 26, 25, 21 and 18 in the low M-CTC group of 72 cases. There were significant differences in the above indicators between the high M-CTC group and the low M-CTC group ( χ2=5.25, 9.42, 4.80, 9.79, 5.55, 5.35, 20.75, P<0.05). Conclusions:The epithelial-mesen-chymal phenotype of peripheral blood CTC can be used to predict the preoperative microvascular invasion in HCC. Tumor diameter >5 cm, tumor number as multiple and M-CTC counts ≥1 per 5 mL are independent risk factors influencing microvascular invasion in HCC patients.

ABSTRACT
Objective:This study aimed to compare the clinical outcomes of laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD) versus open pancreaticoduodenectomy (OPD).Methods:The clinical data of 386 patients who successfully underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy at the People's Hospital of Zhengzhou University from June 2017 to December 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the different surgical methods, patients were divided into the LPD group ( n=122) and the OPD group ( n=264). The differences in operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative hospital stay, postoperative complications, postoperative oncology survival outcomes and prognosis between groups were compared. Results:Of 386 patients in this study, there were 232 males and 154 females, aged (57.8±11.0) years. The operation time of the LPD group was (330.69±80.55) min which was significantly longer than that of the OPD group (241.13±77.24) min. The intraoperative blood loss 300.00(200.00, 400.00) ml was also significantly less than the OPD group 400.00(262.50, 500.00) ml, and the length of postoperative stay in the LPD group (12.21±5.24) d was significantly less than the OPD group (16.61±6.63) d, (all P<0.05). There were 36 patients (29.51%) in the LPD group and 81 patients (30.68%) in the OPD group who developed postoperative complications, with no significant difference between groups ( P>0.05). Postoperative oncology outcomes showed that the number of lymph nodes dissected in the LPD group was significantly more than that in the OPD group [(12.65±5.03) vs (10.07±5.09)], ( P<0.05). There were no significant differences between the two groups in tumor pathology type, size, degree of differentiation and R 0 resection rates (all P>0.05). All patients were followed up for 6-36 months, with a median follow-up of 20 months. The survival rates of patients with malignant tumors after following-up for more than 1 year in the LPD group was 84.72%(61/72), that in the OPD group was 85.81%(133/155), with no significant difference between groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:LPD was safe and feasible with its advantages of minimally invasiveness.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the predictive value of portal vein (PoV) blood circulating tumor cells (CTCs) count in patients with pancreatic cancer on the postoperative prognosis.Methods:The data of 58 patients receiving radical resection of pancreatic cancer and PoV CTCs detection at People's Hospital of Zhengzhou University from Aug 2018 to Jun 2020 were collected. According to the cut-off value of PoV CTCs>10/5 ml made by receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC), patients were divided into high CTCs group and low CTCs group and the differences in clinicopathological parameters and prognosis of the two groups were compared.Results:Postoperative progression-free survival rate of the low CTCs group was higher than that of the high CTCs group ( χ 2=12.97, P<0.001).Univariate COX regression analysis showed that tumor diameter >4 cm, lymph node invasion, TNM staging, CTCs>10/5 ml, postoperative CA199>37 U/m were risk factors for postoperative prognosis. Multivariate COX regression analysis demonstrated that TNM stage ( OR=2.782, P=0.024), CTCs count >10/5 ml ( OR=2.583, P=0.047), postoperative CA199>37 U/m ( OR=3.775, P=0.004) were the independent risk factors of prognosis. Conclusion:A higher PoV CTCs count was a risk factor for poor prognosis of patients with pancreatic cancer after radical resection.

Objective To study the anterior versus the posterolateral approach for laparoscopic splenectomy for patients with chronic pancreatitis-induced regional portal hypertension (PRPH).Methods The retrospective cohort study was carried out on 62 patients who underwent laparoscopic splenectomy for PRPH at the Peoples' Hospital of Zhengzhou University from Jan 2010 to Jun 2016.The patients were divided into 2 groups:the anterior approach group and the posterolateral approach group,and to compare the differences.Results The operation time,amounts of intraoperative non-splenic blood loss,duration of recovery of intestinal peristalsis,duration of drainage,and duration of postoperative hospital stay were (135.0 ± 12.8) minvs (126.0± 13.1) min,(323.7±50.9) ml vs (245.1 ±35.0) ml,(25.5±2.5) h vs (23.5±3.3) h,(5.7±1.0) dvs (3.2±1.3) dand (9.3±1.5) dvs (7.3±1.2) d in the anterior approach laparoscopic splenectomy group versus the posterolateral approach laparoscopic splenectomy group.These differences were significantly different (all P ＜0.05).On follow-up of the 62 patients,improvements in the varicose veins of the lower esophagus and fundus of stomach at 3 month postoperatively were observed.All these patients recovered well from surgery.Conclusion The posterolateral approach laparoscopic splenectomy approach significantly improved the treatment results in patients with chronic pancreatitis-induced regional portal hypertension.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore security and efficacy of single-incision laparoscopic splenectomy (SILS).Methods All the studies comparing SILS and laparoscopic splenectomy (LS) for splenic resection were searched on the available databases including the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials,Medline,Science Citation Index,EMBASE,China National Knowledge Infrastructure,Wanfang Database and China Biomedical Database.The data were analyzed using the Review Manager Software version 5.0.Results After the literature search,nine studies were included in the meta-analysis,which involved 259 patients:109 in the SILS group and 150 in the LS group.The operative time in the SILS group was not significantly longer than the LS group (RR,-4.66;95％ CI,-53.02 to 43.70;P ＞ 0.05).The estimated intraoperative blood loss in the SILS group was not significantly more than the LS group (RR,-14.94;95％ CI,-64.93 to 35.06;P ＞ 0.05).The time of oral intake in the SILS group was the same as in the LS group (RR,-0.13;95％ CI,-0.8 to 0.54;P ＞ 0.05).The time of postoperative hospital stay in the SILS group was the same as in the LS group (RR,-0.83;95 ％ CI,-1.98 to 0.31;P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions This meta-analysis demonstrated that SILS was as safe,effective,and minimally invasive as LS.The current evidence suggested that it could be used routinely in splenic resection.
ABSTRACT
Objective@#To investigate the clinical efficacy of enhanced recovery after surgery(ERAS) in atrial caval shunting (ACS) for type Ⅱ Budd-Chiari syndrome(BCS).@*Methods@#The clinical data of patients underwent ACS for type Ⅱ BCS in the Henan Province People′s Hospital from January 2014 to June 2016 were prospectively analyzed.Randomized and single-blind, controlled study was performed among the patients, and all of them underwent ACS and were divided into control group (patients underwent traditional perioperative management) and ERAS group (patients underwent ERAS perioperative management) based on a random number table.Operational and postoperative data, levels of inflammatory cytokines, stress state evaluation and postoperative complications were observed.The comparison between the two groups was evaluated with an independent sample t test.The trend analyses for variables were done using repeated measures ANOVA.The count data were analyzed using the chi-square test or Fisher exact.@*Results@#Eighty-two patients were screened for eligibility, and allocated into the control group (40 patients) and the ERAS group (42 patients). All patients underwent ACS successfully with no death.Comparison of intraoperative status: operation time, volume of intraoperative blood and number of patients receiving blood transfusion were (211.0±12.9) minutes vs. (207.7±10.7) minutes, (167.5±28.3) ml vs. (165.0±28.4) ml and 3 cases vs. 1 case between the control group and the ERAS group, respectively, showing no difference between the two groups (t=0.90, 0.29, χ2=0.32, all P>0.05). Comparison of postoperative status: time of gastric tube removal, time of catheter removal, time of chest tube, time to flatus, time of food intake, duration of postoperative infusion, duration of postoperative hospital stay and numeric rating scale were (3.7±0.5)days vs. (0.0±0.0)days, (2.3±0.7)days vs. (1.4±0.5)days, (3.7±0.7)days vs. (2.3±0.5)days, (75.2±3.8)hours vs. (46.6±4.2)hours, (75.7±4.7)hours vs. (21.4±2.1)hours, (10.0±1.0)days vs. (5.8±0.9)days, (11.4±1.0)days vs. (7.8±0.6)days, 2.9±0.4 vs. 1.9±0.6 between the control group and the ERAS group, respectively, with statistically differences (t=35.03, 4.36, 8.10, 22.89, 47.78, 14.75, 14.22, 6.13, all P<0.05). Stress state evaluation: the levels of IR were (2.7±0.1) vs.(2.7±0.1), (8.8±0.7) vs. (5.2±0.3), (11.0±0.5) vs. (7.3±0.5), (4.9±0.2) vs. (3.9±0.1), and the levels of C-reaction protein were (14.6±1.3)mg/L vs.(14.6±1.1) mg/L, (101.2±13.6) mg/L vs. (89.5±6.9) mg/L, (62.7±8.6) mg/L vs. (56.4±8.4) mg/L, (46.4±6.7) mg/L vs. (40.0±5.6) mg/L from pre-operation to postoperative day 1, 3 and 5 between the control group and the ERAS group, respectively, with statistically significant differences in changing trends(F=136.61, 4.97, both P<0.05). Comparisons of levels of inflammatory cytokines: the levels of IL-6 were (43.1±2.7) ng/L vs. (43.6±3.6) ng/L, (135.1±6.4) ng/L vs. (117.4±5.7) ng/L, (145.4±6.7) ng/L vs. (128.5±5.5) ng/L, (93.3±3.7) ng/L vs. (88.0±3.9) ng/L, and the levels of TNF-α were (10.4±0.3)mmol/L vs. (10.4±0.3) mmol/L, (14.4±0.4) mmol/L vs. (12.6±0.4) mmol/L, (15.6±0.4) mmol/L vs. (13.8±0.4) mmol/L, (12.3±0.7) mmol/L vs. (11.4±0.6) mmol/L from pre-operation to postoperative day 1, 3 and 5 between the control group and the ERAS group, respectively, with statistically significant differences in changing trends (F=15.15, 21.45, both P<0.05). Comparison of postoperative complications: incidence of complications was 30.0%(12/40) in the control group and 11.9%(5/42) in the ERAS group, and the numbers of patients with nausea and vomiting, respiratory complications and cardiovascular complications were 4, 3, 5 cases in the control group and 3, 1, 1 case in the ERAS group, respectively, showing statistically differences in the incidence of complications(χ2=4.08, P<0.05). All the 82 patients were followed up for 2 to 22 months (median time, 12 months), no patients received reoperation or re-admitted to the hospital duo to complications.@*Conclusion@#ERAS management in the perioperative period of ACS for BCS is beneficial to postoperative recovery of patients, and can relieve postoperative stress state and inflammatory response, reduce the duration of hospital stay, and incidence of postoperative complications.
