ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the preoperative and intraoperative risk factors of clinical pancreatic fistula after laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD).Methods:Clinical data of 100 patients undergoing LPD at the Second Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery of the First Hospital of Jilin University from Jan 2019 to May 2019 were studied.Results:The total incidence of pancreatic fistula was 8%, and the incidence of clinical pancreatic fistula (grade B, C) was 6%. Univariate analysis found that gender (male), preoperative pancreatic plain CT value <33HU, soft texture of the pancreas, long operation time, alcoholic consuming history may be risk factors for pancreatic fistula after LPD( P<0.05), and further multivariate analysis found gender (male), preoperative pancreatic plain CT value <33 HU, soft texture of the pancreas were independent risk factors for clinical pancreatic fistula after LPD( P<0.05). Conclusions:Male patients, preoperative pancreatic plain CT value <33HU, soft texture of the pancreas were respectively independent risk factors predicting post-LPD clinical pancreatic fistula.
ABSTRACT
Background and Objective: Biliary cysts in pregnant women are a complex medical issue, especially when complicated with cholangitis. It is a serious and life-threatening diagnosis that can seriously endanger both the expectant mother and the fetus. However, during pregnancy, surgical treatment would lead to further complications and higher fetal mortality. Here, we propose a novel therapeutic approach that would be safe for both mother and child during pregnancy, with a definitive treatment postponed until after delivery
Methods: In this retrospective study we have summarized the clinical course of six adult patients diagnosed with choledochal cysts during pregnancy. Treatment was conducted in two stages, firstly, percutaneous cholecystostomy under ultrasound guidance and sustained negative pressure suction until delivery, and secondly, selective choledochal cyst excision when the patients recovered from delivery
Results: All the six patients gave birth to healthy babies. Four patients had Type-I choledochal cysts, and underwent Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy surgery. Two patients had a Type-IV choledochal cyst. The first patient with Type-IV choledochal cyst underwent anastomosis between the secondary hepatic bile duct and jejunum and the second patient underwent laparoscopic cyst internal drainage. No serious complications were recorded after gallbladder drainage or during the perioperative period
Conclusions: Based on our single-centre experience we can conclude that treatment of choledochal cyst with cholangitis during pregnancy can be conducted safely and efficiently through the two stages strategy that we proposed in this paper. The first stage should be percutaneous cholecystostomy followed by elective surgical treatment following delivery
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the effect of percutaneous transhepatic gallbladder drainage (PTGBD) combined with laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) in treatment of acute severe cholecystitis.Method The perioperative data of patients treated with PTGBD combined with LC and patients treated with emergency LC were analyzed.Results There were no significant difference between the two groups on surgical duration (t =0.601,P =0.551) and postoperative hospital stay (t =0.979,P =0.331).Blood loss [PTGBD + LC (79.43 ± 46.27) ml,LC (125.84 ± 64.18) ml ; t =3.641,P ＜ 0.05],peritoneal drainage time [PTGDB + LC (3.29 ± 1.58) d,LC (4.63 ± 2.31) d ; t =3.131,P ＜ 0.05] and postoperative oral intake time [PTGBD +LC (2.91 ±1.58)d,LC (4.21 ±2.22)d; t =2.669,P＜0.05] were significantly different between the two groups.The rate of laparotomy,mortality and postoperative complications in the emergency LC group were higher than those in the PTGBD combined with LC group.Conclusions PTGBD combined with LC in the treatment of acute severe cholecystitis was significantly better than emergency LC.
