ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the application value of anatomic segmental hepatectomy in treatment of left hepatolithus.Methods The 80 patients with left hepatolithuswere divided into the control group (n =40)and the observation group (n =40)in accordance with dif-ferent surgical methods,and they were given traditional surgery and precise pedicle anatomic segmental hepatectomy respectively.Operation index levels,postoperative complications and stress reaction levels before and after surgery of the two groups were compared.Results The blood loss,operative time,the time of drainage tube remove,time of analgesic drug use,and postoperative hospital stay of the observation group were significantly less than the control group,and the difference was statistically significant (P 0.05).During the surgery,epinephrine,cortisol,IL-6 and CRP levels of patients decreased after a slight increase, while NK cell levels of patients decreased firstly and then increased.There were statistically significant differences in trems of the above inde-xes immediately after surgery to 24 hours after surgery (P <0.05),and the rangeability of the observation group was less than the control group (P <0.05).Until 48 hours after surgery the above indexes recovered to the preoperative level.Followed up for 3 to 24 months,the calculi recurrence rate and abdominal ache recurrence rate of the observation group were lower than the control group,and the difference was statistically significant(P <0.05).Conclusion Precise pedicle anatomic segmental hepatectomy applied in the treatment of left hepatolithus showed makedly curative effect,and it has little effect on the stress response of patients.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the ways to decrease the postoperative complications of pancreaticoduodenectomy. Methods Thirty-four patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy between January 1998 and December 2004 were reviewed retrospectively. A duct-to-mucosa pancreaticojejunostomy was performed mostly for patients, and an end-to-end pancreaticojejunal invagination for 5-patients with a soft pancreas and a small pancreatic duct. The end-to-side hepaticojejunostomy and the Roux-en-Y reconstruction of gastrointestinal continuity were performed for all patients. Results The hospital mortality was zero. The postoperative complications occurred in the form of wound infection was 4(12%), delayed gastric emptying was 1(3%), pneumonia was 1(3%), intra-abdominal collections was 1(3%) and pancreaticojejunostomy leak was 1(3%). In 1 patient with pancreaticojejunostomy leak, the closure was achieved with the conservative treatment. Intra-abdominal bleeding, intra-abdominal abscess and other anastomotic leakage were not seen in any of patients. The median follow-up was 21 months (ranging from 6 months to 5 years), none of patients had clinical evidence of steatorrhea, bile reflux gastric disease, anastomotic ulcer, retrograde cholangitis and dumping syndrome, there was no new case of diabetes. Conclusions Proper method of reconstruction produces encouraging results in decreasing the complications after pancreaticoduodenectomy.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the surgical treatment of advanced rectal carcinoma in aged people. Methods The clinical data of 65 aged patients with advanced rectal carcinoma from 2000 to 2004 were analyzed retrospectively. Results All cases were Dukes D stage or accompanied with hepatic metastasis. Hartmann's operation was performed in 26 cases, single lumen sigmoidostomy in 11 cases, double lumen sigmoidostomy in 11 cases and resection of hepatic metastatic cancer in 12 cases. Rectal upper arterial catheter chemotherapy was performed in 19 cases and hepatic arterial catheter chemotherapy in 15 cases. The 3-year survival rate of Hartmann's operation was 34%(9/26), and the average survival time was 20?3.17 months in the patients underwent rectal upper and hepatic arterial catheter chemotherapy, and 10?1.77 months in the patients who could not be treated surgically(P
