ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate influencing factors of the number of lymph node harvest after radical resection of colorectal cancer.Methods The retrospective case-control study was conducted.The clinicopathological data of 227 patients with colorectal cancer who underwent radical resection in People's Hospital of Changshou Chongqing from June 2010 to June 2016 were collected.The surgical method and resection extention were determined depending on the tumor location showed on imaging examinations,and all patients underwent radical resection and sufficient lymph nodes dissection.Observation indicators:(1) intra-and post-operative situations;(2) influencing factors analysis of the number of lymph nodes harvest after radical resection of colorectal cancer;(3) follow-up and survival situations.Follow-up using outpatient examination and telephone interview was performed to detect patients' survival up to October 2016.Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as (x)±s.Univariate analysis was done using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability method.Multivariate analysis was performed using the binomial Logistic regression analysis.Results (1) Intra-and postoperative situation:all the 227 patients underwent successful radical resection of colorectal cancer,including 67 with radical resection of right colon cancer,16 with radical resection of left colon cancer,26 with radical resection of sigmoid colon cancer and 118 with radical resection of rectal cancer.Of 227 patients,118 received laparoscopic surgery,109 received open surgery including 8 converted to open surgery from laparoscopic surgery.Tumor located in right hernicolon,left hemicolon,sigmoid colon and rectum were respectively detected in 67,16,26 and 118 patients,same as results of imaging examintions.Operation time,volume of intraoperative blood loss and number of lymph nodes harvest in 227 patients were (192 ± 72) minutes,(94± 84) mL and 14 ± 4.Of 8 patients in 227patients with postoperative complications,2 received secondary suture due to wound infection,2 received reoperation due to intestinal obstruction,1 received transverse colostomy due to anastomotic leakage,and 3 received stoma reconstruction due to stoma retraction.Duration of postoperative hospital stay of 227 patients was (22±9) days.Postoperative pathological examininations:35 and 192 patients were respectively diagnosed with rnucinous adenocarcinoma and non-mucinous adenocarcinoma.Moderate-and low-differentiated carcinoma and high-differentiated carcinoma were respectively detected in 47 and 180 patients.(2) The influencing factors analysis of the number of lymph nodes harvest after radical resection of colorectal cancer:univariate analysis showed that tumor location and tumor pathological T stage were related factors affecting the number of lymph node harvest after radical resection of colorectal cancer (x2=10.066,P＜0.05).Multivariate analysis showed the tumor location and tumor pathological T stage were independent factors affecting the number of lymph nodes harvest after radical resection of colorectal caucer (OR=1.283,6.075,95％ confidence interval:1.031-1.597,1.215-30.385,P＜0.05).(3) Follow-up and survival situations:190 of the 227 patients were followed up for 4-72 months,with a median time of 32 months.During the follow-up,21 patients died,23 patients survived with tumor,and 146 patients survived without disease.Conclusion Tumor location and tumor pathological T stage are independent factors affecting the number of lymph node harvest after radical resection of colorectal cancer.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the learning curve of laparoscopic totally extraperitoneal (TEP) inguinal hernia repair.Methods The clinical data of 450 cases of patients who received laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair by the same group of surgeons from December 2012 to August 2016 in our hospital were sequentially divided into three groups,with 150 cases in each group.The cases of each group who received TEP inguinal hernia repair were extracted and enrolled into group A,B and C.The preoperative,intraoperative and postoperative indicators were compared among the three groups.Results Before operation,no statistically significant difference was found in age,gender,incidence rates of scrotum hernia,recurrent hernia and bilateral hernia,and types of hernia among the three groups (P＞0.05).And there was no statistically significant difference in incidence rates of postoperative urinary retention,analgesia and seromas,and hospitalization expenses among the three groups (P＞0.05).During operation,differences in conversion rate,operative time and volume of blood loss among the three groups were statistically significant (P＜0.05).Moreover,statistically significant differences in conversion rate,operative time and volume of blood loss were found between group A and group B (P＜0.05),while there was no statistically significant difference between group B and group C (P＞0.05).The regression curves were drawn based on operation time,volume of blood loss and the number of cases,which estimated the inflection point was 150.Conclusion The learning curve of TEP inguinal hernia repair include approximately 150 cases of laparoscopic inguinal hernia repair (including 16 cases of patients received TEP).The TEP inguinal hernia repair operation during the learning curve can be safety on the basis of preoperative evaluation and appropriate case selection.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the variation about the application of fast-track surgery and laparoscopy in treatment for colorectal cancer in recent years.To investigate the probability of combining protocols of the two for treatment for colorectal cancer.Methods The clinical and basic literatures of related researches about colorectal treatment of laparoscopy and fast-track surgery were collected and reviewed.Results Compared with the traditional treatment modalities,both of fast-track surgery and laparoscopy used for the treatment of colorectal cancer have better clinical effects.Conclusions Fast-track surgery and laparoscopic techniques used for the treatment of colorectal cancer are feasible,but the combination of the two should be confirmed by further randomized controlled trials.
