ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the diagnosis and management of functional pancreatic endocrine tumor.Methods Clinical data of 19 cases of functional pancreatic endocrine tumor were retrospectively analyzed.Results 15 cases of insulinoma,2 cases of gastrinoma and 2 cases of glucagonoma were qualitatively diagnosed.The positive rate of preoperative diagosis for type B ultrasonic inspection,CT,MRI,EUS,selective portovenous sampling and intraoperative type B ultrasonic inspection was 15.8％ (3/19),67.5％ (10/16),71.4％ (5/7),87.5％ (7/8),100％(2/2) and 85.7％(6/7) respectively.Of the total 19 cases,7 cases underwent open surgery,11 cases unde rwent laparoscopic surgery,and one case didn't undergo any surgery as liver metastasis had occurred when glucagonoma was diagnosed.The operation methods included tumor enucleation (n=13),distal pancreatic resection (n=3),distal pancreatic resection plus splenectomy (n=1),and pancreatic head resection with duodenum preserved (n=1).Conclusions The measurement of serum insulin,gastrin and glucagon is the main basis for qualitative diagonosis of pancreatic endocrine tumor.Two stage spinal CT thin scanning is the main method for tumor location.Intraoperative type B ultrasonic inspection is the supplement to preoperative location.Tumor enucleation is the main choice of treatment.
ABSTRACT
Objective To understand the effect of the resect margin(RM)to hepatectomy for primary hepatocellularcarcinoma(PHC).Methods In 544 cases,72 cases were small PHC(≤3cm),473 cases were large PHC(＞3cm). Four groups were classified according to the distance of RM The 5-year recurrence rate and survival rate after hepatic resection in each group were analyzed. Results RM with residue cancer or cancer embolus had a high 5-year recurrencre rate and lower survival rate in both small and large PHC. Small PHC with RM≥1.0cm and large PHC with RM≥2.0cm had higher 5-year survival rate and lower recurrence rate. Conclusion We recommend RM≥1.0cm for smallPHC and RM≥2.0cm for large PHC.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the method and effect of primary closure of choledochostomy with placement of a modified biliary stent after common bile duct exploration. Methods Open or laparoscopic common bile duct exploration was done in 39 patients with both gallbladder and common bile duct (CBD) stones. After extraction of stones, an 8F J-stent (pigtailed) was placed in the CBD and into the duodenum over a guide wire. The proximal end of the stent was secured to the CBD wall with rapidly absorbable suture. The CBD incision was primarily closed. Results The stent dislodged and was discharged with stool at the 13th (10-18) postoperative day . Three patients developed transient hyperamylasemia in the immediate postoperative period. None of the patients had complications of bile leak, stent occlusion, early stent dislodgement, or stent retraction into the CBD. Conclusions Placement of a self-release biliary J-stent in CBD and into the duodenum during common bile duct exploration is easier to manipulate with the help of choledochoscpe and guide wire. It is safe and cost-effective, therefore, it can expand the indications for primary closure of CBD incision, and reduce the complications related to T-tubes.
