ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the value of Ligasure vessel sealing system(LVSS)during resection of retroperitoneal tumor.Methods Group 1 including 32 cases were performed resection of retroperitoneal tumor with LVSS and electrosurgical seapel from Jun.2004 to Oct.2008.group 2 including 26 cases were done with electrosurgieal seapel from Jan.2001 to Jun.2004.Operating blood loss,operating time,iatrogenic injury,postoperative blood loss and hospital stay were compared between the two groups.Results There was no significant difference in hospital stay[(11.7±0.7)d vs.(12.3±1.4)d)]and iatrogenic injury(9.38%vs.16.00%)between two groups statistically(P＞0.05),but the intraoperative blood lose[(403.1±37.1)ml vs.(704.0±129.0)m1)s,postoperative blood loss[(131.5±18.4)ml vs.(214.8±29.2)ml)]and operating time[(166.5±8.9)min vs.(186.8±15.4)min]were less in group 1 than that in group 2(P＜0.05).Conclusion Ligasure vessel sealing system has advantages of safe coagulation,shortening operation time in resection of retroperitoneal tumor.
ABSTRACT
Objective To observe the effects of Shenhong (SH) combined with chemotherapeutic drugs on curative effect, symptoms improvement, and immunology function in metaphase or terminal cancer patients.Methods All 598 patients were divided into two groups. The control group had 205 patients treated with chemotherapeutic drugs. The SH-treated group had 393 patients treated with SH combined with chemotherapeutic drugs. Results Compared with control patients, the total remission was 42.0% in SH-treated patients. The improvement rates of pain, cough, debilitation, and anepithymia were 71.9%. The Karnofsky grade was increased by 27.0%. CD+3 and CD+4 were increased by 11.6% and 19.3%, but CD+8was decreased by 22.6% at the same time. The patients CD+4 / CD+8 was enhanced by 54.2%, while the NK cell activity and marophage phagocysis were significantly improved. The content of Ig G and Ig A were increased in the same group. Conclusion The curative effect of SH combined with chemotherapeutic drugs was higher than that of control group. The therapeutic effect of SH is explained by its potential regulation activity on immun system.
ABSTRACT
Ojective To evaluate the value of laparoscopic gastrectomy in the management of gastric diseases. Methods 18 laparoscopic gastric operation were performed in our hospital from August 2000 to April 2001. The ages of the patients ranged from 28 to 87 years. One patient received Billroth-Ⅰ gastrectomy, 7 Billroth-Ⅱ gastrectomy, 3 proximal subtotal gastrectomy, 4 distal subtotal gastrectomy and 3 total gastrectomy. Results All the operations were successfull, the duration of operation was 150～340min, the estimated blood loss was 20～120ml, and the average postoperative hospitalized days were 8 days. All patients recovered quickly without any postoperative complication. Flatus was present quickly. no death occurred in all the patients. Conclusions Laparoscopic gastrectomy is an effective and safe technique for the manaqement of gastric disease, if used properly.
