ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the value of tumor budding in the clinicopathology and prognosis of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumors.Methods:The Cliniccal data of 105 pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor patients underwent resection in Henan Provincial People's Hospital from Jan 2010 to Dec 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. Tumor budding was calculated through hematoxylin-eosin (HE) and immunohistochemical stained slides. Based on the receiver operating characteristic curve (ROC), the number of tumor budding ≥10 was defined as the high-grade budding group, and <10 as the low-grade budding group. Multiple analysis was performed to determine the relationship between tumor budding and clinicopathology as well as prognosis.Results:High-grade budding group was observed in 35 cases and low-grade group in 70. High-grade budding were more common in tumors with advanced T stage, high risk of lymphatic metastasis, preoperative liver metastasis, vascular invasion and postoperative recurrence (respectively χ 2=9.043, 4.286, 10.130, 12.090, 9.260, all P<0.05). Multivariate COX regression analysis showed that tumor budding ( P=0.018), tumor grade ( P=0.026), preoperative liver metastasis ( P=0.042), vascular invasion( P=0.048) was independent risk factors predicting poor prognosis. Conclusion:Tumor budding is highly correlated with clinicopathological parameters which reflect the aggressiveness of pancreatic neuroendocrine tumor, it is also an important prognostic factor.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the clinical application value of fluorescence laparoscopy in radical resection of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods Data of totally 113 patients with HCC in Henan Provincial People's Hospital between June 2016 to June 2018 were retrospectively analyzed.Among the 113 patients,46 patients underwent laparoscopic hepatectomy (LLR),and 67 patients underwent fluorescence guided laparoscopic hepatectomy (FLLR).Results No significant differences were observed between LLR group and FLLR group in terms of age,male proportion,liver function classification,surgical resection methods,and operation time (P＞0.05).The positive ratio of specimen surgical margin in LLR group was significantly higher than that in FLLR group,13.0％ vs.3.0％,and the difference was statistically significant (P＜0.05).In the FLLR group,22 patients received fluorescence guided anatomic hepatectomy with indocyanine green (ICG),10 with positive staining and 12 with negative staining,and fluorescence imaging was observed 2 minutes after ICG injection.There was no significant difference in operation time,hospitalization cost and length of stay between positive and negative staining (P＞ 0.05).Conclusion Fluorescence laparoscopy has certain advantages in hepatectomy,and can display the boundary of hepatocellular carcinoma in real time to ensure the safe margin of tumor resection.
