ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the correlation between the expression of (epidermal growth factor receptor-2,HER-2) and clinicopathological features and survival of colorectal cancer.Methods From Jan 2005 to Dec 2015,all colorectal cancer cases were enrolled that the expression levels of HER-2 were detected in Guangdong Provincial People's Hospital.Clinicopathological features of the tumors and survival of the patients were analyzed.Results A total of 1 463 cases were collected in 10 years,including 711 cases (48.6%) of HER-2 (-),470 cases (32.1%) of HER-2 (+),249 cases (17%) of HER-2 (+ +),and 33 cases (2.3%) of HER-2 (+ + +).Correlation analysis shows that the expression levels of HER-2 were significantly correlated with tumor differentiation and the depth of tumor invasion(T stage),but not correlated with gender,age,tumor location,N stage,M stage,TNM stage and overall survival,and disease-free survival.Conclusion The expression of HER-2 may be related to tumor differentiation and growth infiltration,but it cannot be used as a predictor of prognosis in patients with colorectal cancer.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the clinical effect of enhanced recovery after surgery and pain management during the perioperative period in rectal cancer patients.Methods 100 rectal cancer patients after radical resection were divided into ERAS group (50 cases) and routine care group (50 cases).Results Compare with the routine group,the time of ERAS group was shorter in postoperative bowel function recovery [(1.8 ± 0.6) d vs.(3.4 ± 0.6) d,t =-8.1,P < 0.001],oral feeding [(1.3 ± 0.6) d vs.(3.2 ± 0.6) d,t =-10.1,P < 0.001],intraperitoneal catheter drain [(3.6 ± 0.7) d vs.(5.3 ±0.8) d,t=-6.7,P<0.001] and mobilization[(1.1 ±0.3)d vs.(2.7 ±0.5) d,t=-12.7,P<0.001].ERAS group was associated with shorter hospital stay [(4.6 ± 0.6) d vs.(6.1 ± 0.6) d,t =-7.7,P < 0.001],lower costs (P =0.014),lower pain score at the time of 6 h,12 h,24 h and 48 h after surgery (P <0.001).There was no significant statistical difference in postoperative complication rate 8% and 10% (P =1.000).Conclusions ERAS management in rectal cancer patients after radical operation enhanced postoperative recovery.
ABSTRACT
Objective To compare the effect of laparoscopy-assisted gastrectomy (LAG) and open D2 radical gastrectomy (OG) for gastric cancer.Methods The retrospective cohort study was conducted.The clinicopathological data of 117 patients who underwent D2 radical gastrectomy at the Guangdong General Hospital from January 2014 to December 2014 were collected.Of 117 patients,60 undergoing LAG and 57 undergoing OG were respectively allocated into the LAG group and OG group.Total gastrectomy,distal subtotal gastrectomy and proximal subtotal gastrectomy were performed according to the location of the tumor.The perigastric lymph nodes dissection was performed according to the Japanese " Gastric cancer treatment protocol" (the 14th edition).Eligible patients received the adjuvant chemotherapy of XELOX regimen according to the Guideline published by National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN).Observation indicators:(1) comparison of intra-and postoperative recovery between groups;(2) stratified analysis of number of lymph node dissected;(3) relationship among surgical method,number of lymph node dissected and postoperative complication;(4) follow-up and survival.Follow-up using outpatient examination and telephone interview was performed to detect the postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy,tumor-free survival and tumor recurrence or metastasis up to December 2016.Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as (x)± s and comparison between groups was analyzed using the independent-sample t test.Count data were analyzed using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability.The relationship between number of lymph node dissected and postoperative complication was done using the Logistic regression model.Results (1) Comparison of intra-and post-operative recovery between groups:all the patients completed the operation successfully.Volume of intraoperative blood loss,time to postoperative anal exsufflation and duration of postoperative hospital stay were (113±36) mL,(4.3±2.1) days,(9.7±2.9) days in the LAG group and (209 ± 77) mL,(5.3 ± 2.2) days,(11.2 ± 3.9) days in the OG group,respectively,with statistically significant differences between groups (t =6.850,-2.604,-2.405,P<0.05).Number of lymph node dissected,numbers of patients with overall complication,incisional infection,intestinal obstruction,digestive tract fistula,intra-abdominal bleeding,cardiovascular accident,pulmonary infection,urinary tract infection and death within postoperative 30 days were respectively 31±7,6,1,0,4,0,0,1,0,0 in the LAG group and 34±6,12,0,1,2,2,1,4,1,1 in the OG group,with no statistically significant difference between groups (t=0.177,x2=2.743,0.126,0.563,0.837,P>0.05).All the patients with complications received symptomatic treatment,1 patient with abdominal bleeding in the OG group died and other patients recovered smoothly.(2) Stratified analysis of number of lymph node dissected:number of lymph node dissected in patients with total gastrectomy,distal subtotal gastrectomy and proximal subtotal gastrectomy were 35±8,29±5,27±4 in the LAG group and 34± 5,34±6,29±6 in the OG group,respectively,with no statistically significant difference between groups (t =0.846,1.052,0.934,P>0.05).Number of lymph node dissected in patients with stage Ⅰ,Ⅱ and Ⅲ of TNM staging were respectively 31±5,32±9,31±6 in the LAG group and 34±7,32±4,35±6 in the OG group,with no statistically significant difference between groups (t =0.494,1.657,0.136,P>0.05).(3) Relationship among surgical method,number of lymph node dissected and postoperative complication:surgical method (LAG and OG) and number of lymph node dissected were used as the independent variable and postoperative complication between groups was used as the dependent variable,the Logistic regression model showed that surgical method and number of lymph node dissected were not related factors affecting the postoperative complication (OR =1.062,2.049,95% confidence interval:0.998-1.140,0.695-6.042,P>0.05).(4) Follow-up and survival:108 of 117 patients (54 in each group) were followed up for 2-35 months,with a median time of 28 months.During the follow-up,numbers of patients undergoing postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy,with tumor-free survival and with tumor recurrence were 45,43,10 in the LAG group and 42,42,10 in the OG group,respectively,with no statistically significant difference in the tumor-free survival and tumor recurrence between groups (x2 =0.055,0.002,P>0.05).Conclusion Laparoscopy-assisted D2 radical gastrectomy is safe and feasible,which equivalent to clinical effect of open radical gastrectomy,meanwhile,it also can reduce volume of intraoperative blood loss and duration of postoperative hospital stay,and accelerate recovery of postoperative gastrointestinal function.
ABSTRACT
Objective To summarize the experience in diagnosis and treatment of rectal injury. Methods The diagnosis and treatment of 40 cases of rectal injury in the recent 6 years were retrospectively analysed. The diagnosis of rectal injury relied on injury history, clinical presentation,anorectal examination , sigmoid coloscopy ,and explorare laparotomy.38 cases treated by surgery ,including rectal repear ,sigmoid colostomy plus drainge ,and resection of injuried segment of rectum.1case treated by non-operation. 1 case died 2h after admittion. Results 39 cases recovered and 1 case died.Conclusions The condition of rectal injury is very complicate.Due attention should be paid to the diagnosis and treatment.
