ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effect of the extent of surgical resection on the prognosis of children patients with advanced neuroblastoma. Methods Thirty-seven children patients with advanced neuroblastoma were selected as our subjects,who underwent surgical treatment in the People's Hospital Binzhou from Jan. 2001to Dec. 2006. All the patients were treated with surgical operation or surgical operation combined with chemotherapy,among them 24 cases were completely removal,and 13 cases were partially removal. All patients were followed-up for more than 5 years. Log rank test and multivariate COX regression analysis were used to explore the effect of surgery resection on prognosis. Results The influencing factors of the complete resection group included lymphatic metastasis,clinical stage,combined with chemotherapy,tumor markers neuronspecific enolase(P = 0. 002,0. 000,0. 019,0. 015 respectively). COX regression analysis showed that the independent factors included chemotherapy( OR = 1. 952,95% CI = 1. 258 - 2. 759,P = 0. 000),lymph node metastasis(OR = 2. 856,95% CI = 1. 356 - 3. 859,P = 0. 019),and extent of surgical resection(OR = 3. 069, 95% CI = 1. 585 - 4. 685,P = 0. 005). The shortest survival period of patients in this study was a month,and the median survival period was 33. 96 months. One year survival rate was 62. 21% and 2-year survival rate was 41. 09% as well as 3-year survival rate was 23. 59% . The average survival period between total and partial of surgical resection was significant((56. 96 ± 13. 22)months,(19. 63 ± 10. 20)months;P = 0. 019). Conclusion Surgical resection is an important factor of the prognosis of patients with NB. If the patient's own conditions permit,it can be appropriate to expand the scope of surgical resection in order to reduce the risk of tumor recurrence.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the short-and mid-term curative effect and influence factors of hepaticojejunostomy(Kasai operation) for biliary atresia.Methods The clinical data of 66 children with biliary atresia treated with Kasai operation were analyzed retrospectively.The jaundice fading rate,2-year survival rate and influence factors of prognostic were analyzed.Results The jaundice fading rate of 62 cases was 58.1％ after Kasai operatiou.The patients also had a 2-year native liver survival rate of 53.2％.The jaundice fading rate,2-year survival rate of type Ⅰ,Ⅱ and Ⅲ had no significant differences (χ2 =1.91,0.76,all P ＞ 0.05).The 2-year survival rate of children underwent Kasai operation as younger than 60 days was higher rate than that of the children as 61 to 90 days and older than 90 days(χ2 =4.72,P ＜ 0.05).The 2-year survival rate of children with cytoinegalovirus infection and postoperative cholangitis were 43.6％,39.5％,respectively,which were lower than those of children without cytomegalovirus infection and postoperative cholangitis (69.6％.75.0％) (χ2 =3.92,7.46,all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Kasai operation is still the preferred method for the treatinent of biliary atresia.Type of the disease was not related with the short-and mid-term effects of Kasai operation.Age at operation was the main factor affecting the prognosis.Therefore,it is very important to make early surgery,enhance the anti-viral treatment and prevent postoperative cholangitis.
ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical efficacy of bidirectional Glenn shunt with noncardiopulmonary bypass(CPB) for treating congenital heart disease.MethodsThe clinical data of forty-four patients receiving bidirectional Glenn shunt from August 2005 to August 2011 were analyzedretrospectively,twenty-three cases of which were treated by bidirectional Glenn shunt with non-CPB (non-CPB group) and twenty-one with CPB (CPB group).The duration of ventilator-assisted breathing,chest drainage volume,amount of blood product usage,postoperative hospital stay and pulse oxygen saturation (SpO2) before leaving the hospital were compared and analyzed between two groups.ResultsForty-four patients were all cured.The duration of ventilator-assisted breathing,chest drainage volume and the amount of blood product usage of non-CPB group were less than those of CPB group [ (4.5 ± 1.3 ) h vs.(6.7 ± 1.5 ) h,(4.6 ± 1.4 ) ml/kg vs.(7.7 ± 3.1 ) ml/kg,( 221.8 ± 97.6 ) ml vs.( 423.4 ± 149.7 ) ml,P ＜ 0.05 ].There was no significant difference of the postoperative hospital stay and SpO2 before leaving the hospital between non-CPB group and CPB group[ (7.4 ± 2.3 ) d vs.(7.8 ± 1.9) d,0.91 ± 0.05 vs.0.88 ± 0.39,P ＞ 0.05 ].Conclusion Bidirectional Glenn shunt with non-CPB is a safe and feasible surgical approach,which is worthy of promotion.
