ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the safety of a surgical appwach for transabdominal cardial carci- noma.Methods We retrospectively analyzed 326 patients undergoing transabdominal esophagastrostomy or esophagojejunostomy from 1998 to 2006 via the EEA(end-to-end anastomosis)stapler.Results By the surgi- cal approach for transabdominal cardial carcinoma,the average length of reseete esophagus above the carci- noma was about 6～8 cm realized the low average of remnant carcinoma at the margin and operation mortality and anastomotic leakage,which was lower than those in the thoraeotomy appmaeh significantly.Conclusion The transabdominal approach makes a clear operative field in posterio-inferior mediastinum,it is beneficial for radical resection of eardial carcinoma and intramediastinal esophagogastric or esophagojejunal mechanical anastomosis,and it fits to the old,the weakening and with the disease of heart and lung.
ABSTRACT
Objective To study the clinical characteristics and curative effects of pancreatic cystade- nocarcinoma in order to improve its diagnostic and therapeutic accuracy.Methods A retrospective analysis was done on the clinical materials of 13 cases of pancreatic cystadenocarcinoma hospitalized in Shanxi Cancer Hospital from 1990 to 2006.Results The preoperative diagnosis were as follows:pancreatic cystadenocarci- noma 6 cases,pancreatic cystadenoma 2 cases,pancreatic cancer 1 case,pancreatic pseudocyst 4 cases.The misdiagnosis rate was 53.8 %.Surgical operation was done on the 13 cases,and 10 of them were treated by radical operation.A 5-year follow-up was done on 6 still alive cases,and 1 of them lived over 11 years.3 cases were treated by palliative operation,and all of them died within 3 years.Conclusion Since there is no specific clinical manifestations of pancreatic cystadenocarcinoma,it is very difficult to get an accurate preop- erative diagnosis.Radical operation is the most effective therapeutic methods.
