@#Objective    To explore the surgical technique and clinical effect of endoscopic assisted transaxillary breast tumor resection in the treatment of benign and malignant breast tumors. Methods    The clinical data of 18 patients received endoscopic breast tumor resection from September 2020 to December 2021 in the Department of Breast Surgery, West China Hospital, Sichuan University, were retrospectively analyzed to evaluate the feasibility, tumor safety and postoperative cosmetic effect. There were 7 patients with benign breast tumors (a benign breast tumor group) and 11 patients with early breast cancer (a malignant breast tumor group). Breast-Q and Scar-Q questionnaires were used to evaluate postoperative quality of life and satisfaction of patients. Results    Endoscopic breast tumor resection was performed successfully in 18 female patients, among whom 12 patients received day surgery. The mean age of benign and malignant breast tumor groups was 29.6±11.6 years and 46.7±14.3 years, the mean tumor size in pathological examination was 3.3±2.1 cm and 2.0±0.8 cm, and the operative time was 138.9±57.0 min and 177.3±46.3 min, respectively. One patient had positive resection margin and underwent intraoperative extended resection in the malignant breast tumor group. All the patients were successfully followed up, and the mean follow-up time of benign and malignant breast tumor groups was 6.8±4.0 months and 8.7±4.9 months, respectively. No complications or tumor recurrence occurred. The scores of psychosocial status, sexual well-being, chest wall status and breast satisfaction decreased one month after surgery and basically recovered to the preoperative level in one year, and the score of scar appearance increased to 64.6±5.9 points one year postoperatively. Conclusion    Endoscopic assisted transaxillary breast tumor resection can effectively improve postoperative cosmetic effect and patient satisfaction on the premise of safety.

Abordaje perioperatorio en cirugía neurológica con el paciente despierto / Perioperative approach in neurological surgery with the patient awake

Resumen: La craneotomía con el paciente despierto se refiere a aquellos procedimientos en los que el paciente conserva su estado de consciencia durante toda la cirugía o en parte de ésta con el objetivo de explorar la integridad de sus funciones cerebrales superiores en tiempo real. Estas técnicas neuroanestésicas son útiles para ayudar al neurocirujano a preservar la integridad del tejido cerebral, o bien, no causar mayor daño del que la propia enfermedad ha causado.

Abstract: Awake craniotomy refers to those procedures in which the patient remains conscious for all or part the time, with the aim of explore in real time the integrity of their higher brain functions. This kind of neuroanesthetic techniques are useful in assisting the neurosurgeon to preserve the integrity of the brain or not to damage more than what the disease has caused.

Reabilitação de pacientes com comunicação buco nasal: relato de casos / Rehabilitation of patients with oral and nasal communication: case report

A sobrevivência de pacientes com câncer de cabeça e pescoço vêm melhorando, entretanto, algumas deformidades podem ocorrer devido dos tratamentos cirúrgicos que geram mutilações bucomaxilofaciais como perda de dentes, estruturas do palato, língua ou assoalho, resultando em alterações na fonética, mastigação e deglutição. Nesses casos há a necessidade que seja realizado uma reabilitação protética buscando torná-los indivíduos com menos problemas sociais, psicológicos e físicos, visto que mais procedimentos cirúrgicos estão contra indicados para solucionar os efeitos colaterais gerados pelo tratamento das neoplasias. Esse tipo de reabilitação protética com prótese ou placa obturadora possibilita benefícios na fonética, facilita a convivência social e atividades nutricionais como alimentação e deglutição, permitindo ao paciente uma vida com menos constrangimentos. Este trabalho tem como objetivo relatar dois casos clínicos onde os pacientes foram submetidos a reabilitação com placa obturadora palatina feitos após cirurgias oncológicas. Os pacientes de gêneros diferentes e com comunicações buco-nasal similares receberam o mesmo planejamento reabilitador que foram confeccionadas a partir de um molde que foi enviado ao laboratório. Após a instalação foi possível verificar que houve sucesso no tratamento, notando uma melhora imediata comprovando a eficácia do método reabilitador(AU)

This paper relates two clinical cases where patients were recovered with a palatal splint made after oncological surgeries. Survival of patients and necks can occur, however, some deformities can occur during oral and maxillofacial treatment, such as the appearance of teeth, palate structures, mutilations or posterior jaws, leading to changes in aesthetics, surgery and swallowing. If the need to perform a prosthetic rehabilitation is necessary so that the results are seen with less problems, psychological and physical, that more procedures are performed so that the effects of neoplasms are contraindicated by the treatment. This type of prosthetic rehabilitation with prosthesis or obturator plate provides benefits in phonetics, facilitates social coexistence and nutritional activities such as eating and swallowing, allowing the patient a life with less constraints. Patients of different genders and with similar oral and nasal communications received the same rehabilitation plan that were made from a mold that was sent to the laboratory. After installation, it was possible to verify that the treatment was successful, noting an immediate improvement, proving the effectiveness of the rehabilitation method(AU)

OBJECTIVE@#To investigate the possibility and feasibility of one-stage cardiac and non-cardiac surgery.@*METHODS@#From July 1999 to August 2018, one hundred and eleven patients suffering from cardiac and non-cardiac diseases were treated by one-stage cardiac and non-cardiac operation in Department of Cardiac Surgery and Thoracic Surgery, General Surgery, Urinary Surgery, and Gynecology, Peking University First Hospital. There were 83 males (74.8%) and 28 females (25.2%), aged 41 to 84 years [mean age: (64.64±8.97) years]. The components of the cardiac disease included coronary heart disease, valvular heart disease, cardiac tumors, chronic constrictive pericarditis and congenital heart disease. The components of the non-cardiac diseases included lung benign and malignant diseases, thymoma and thymic cyst, breast cancer, chest wall giant hemangioma, digestive tract benign and malignant diseases, urinary system carcinoma and gynecological diseases.@*RESULTS@#Two patients died after operations in hospital; thus, the hospital mortality rate was 1.8%. One patient died of multiple organ failure on the 153th days after emergency coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) combined with radical resection of bladder cancer. The other of pericardium stripping with lung cancer operation died of the multiple organ failure on the tenth day after surgery. The remaining 109 patients recovered and were discharged. There were 13 cases of complications during the days in hospital. The total operative morbidity was 11.7%: postoperative hemorrhage in 2 cases (1.8%), pulmonary infection and hypoxemia in 3 cases (2.7%), hemorrhage of upper digestive tract in 1 case (0.9%), incisional infection in 3 cases (2.7%), subphrenic abscess in 1 case (0.9%), and postoperative acute renal failure and hemofiltration in 3 case (2.7%). Of the 109 patients discharged, 108 patients were followed up. All the patients survived for 6 months, and 21 patients died due to tumor recurrence or metastasis within 1 to 5 years of follow-up, but no cardiogenic death. During the follow-up period, 1 patient developed cardiac dysfunction, 1 patient underwent percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI), 1 patient had cerebral hemorrhage due to excessive postoperative anticoagulation, and 1 patient suffered from incisional hernia.@*CONCLUSION@#One-stage surgeries in patients suffering from both cardiac and non-cardiac benign or malignant diseases are safe and possible with satisfactory short-term and long-term survival.

Meta-analysis of efficacy of primary tumor resection for asymptomatic metastatic colorectal cancer with unresectable metastases / 国际外科学杂志

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of primary tumor resection for asymptomatic metastatic colorectal cancer with unresectable metastases.Methods:A literature search was conducted in PubMed, the Cochrane Library, Chinese National Knowledge Infrastructure and WanFang databases to identify studies comparing primary tumor resection and systemic treatment for asymptomatic metastatic colorectal cancer with unresectable metastases until March 31, 2021 (inchuding RCTs and non-RCTs) . The search strategy was: (((colorectal cancer) OR (colorectal neoplasms) OR (colon cancer) OR (colon neoplasms) OR (rectal cancer) OR (rectal neoplasms)) AND ((metastatic) OR (stage Ⅳ)) AND (asymptomatic) AND (primary tumor resection)). Review manager (RevMan) (Version 5.3.0, Cochrane Collaboration, Oxford, UK) was used to perform the statistical analysis.Results:A total of 14 original studies (RCT: 1; cohort study: 13) were included in this analysis with a total of 2123 patients (primary tumor resection: 1162 cases, systemic treatment: 961 cases). The results of this Meta-analysis showed that PTR group had a significantly improved overall survival in 1-year overall survival ( HR=0.80, 95% CI: 0.67~0.95, P=0.01), 2-year overall survival ( HR=0.81, 95% CI: 0.71~0.93, P=0.002), 3-year overall survival ( HR=0.82, 95% CI: 0.72~0.92, P=0.001), 4-year overall survival ( HR=0.86, 95% CI: 0.75~0.98, P=0.02) and 5-year overall survival ( HR=0.85, 95% CI: 0.74~0.97, P=0.02). The median survival time of PTR group was 4.35 months longer than that of systemic treatment group ( MD=4.35, 95% CI: 0.99~7.72, P=0.015). Conclusions:The current evidence suggests that primary tumor resection may be a potentially safe and feasible treatment strategy for asymptomatic metastatic colorectal cancer with unresectable metastases. Large sample size prospective randomized controlled trials are needed to validate our findings in the future.

OBJECTIVE：To investigate the effects of d exmedetomidine on postoperative delirium （POD） in liver tumor resection elderly patients with sleep disorder （SD）. METHODS ：Totally 80 patients undergoing liver tumor resection with preoperative Pittsburgh sleep quality index （PSQI）score ≥7 were selected from the Affiliated Cancer Hospital of Zhengzhou University from Jan. 1st，2020 to Oct. 31st，2020. They were randomly divided into group SD and group Dex according random number table ，with 40 cases in each group. At the same time ，40 patients with preoperative PSQI score ＜7 were selected as group C. Thirty min before anesthesia induction ，Dexmedetomidine hydrochloride injection 0.4 μg/kg was injected intravenously in group Dex. Etomidate emulsion injection ，Sufentanil citrate injection and Rocuronium bromide injection were used for anesthesia induction in 3 groups，and Ropofol medium/long chain fat emulsion injection + Remifentanil hydrochloride for injection was used to maintain anesthesia. The drug use ，operation time ，PACU stay time and postoperative hospital stay were recorded in 3 groups. The cognitive function was evaluated 2 h before operation and 1，3，5，7 days after operation. The occurrence of POD was observed. The plasma levels of IL- 6 and S 100β were measured 2 h before operation ，2 h after operation ，1，3，5 days after operation. The occurrence of ADR was recorded. RESULTS ：There was no statisti cal significance in intraoperativ e drug use and operation time among 3 groups （P＞0.05）. The PACU stay time ， the incidence of POD and the duration of POD in group SD an d lixxi18@126.com group Dex were significantly higher or longer than group C ， while the Dex group was significantly lower or shorter thangroup SD （P＜0.05）. The postoperative hospitalization stay ofgroup SD was significantly longer than group C and group Dex （P＜0.05），and there was no statistical significance between group Dex and group C （P＞0.05）. Before operation ，there was no statistical significance in MMSE scores or plasma levels of IL- 6 and S100β among 3 groups（P＞0.05）. MMSE scores of group C 1，3 days after operation ，those of group SD and group Dex 1，3，5 and 7 days after operation were significantly lower than those before operation. MMSE scores of group SD and group Dex 1，3，5 and 7 days after operation were significantly lower than group C at corresponding period ；the group Dex was significantly higher than the group SD at corresponding period （P＜0.05）. The plasma levels of IL- 6 and S 100 β at different time points were significantly higher than before operation ，and the group SD and group Dex were significantly higher than the group C ，and the group Dex was significantly lower than group SD at corresponding period （P＜0.05）. There was no statistical significance in the total incidence of ADR among 3 groups（P＞0.05）. CONCLUSIONS ：SD can promote the occurrence of POD in liver tumor resection elderly patients. Dexmetomidine can reduce the incidence of POD in elderly patients with preoperative SD ，the mechanism of which may be associated with the inhibition of IL- 6 and S 100β expression and the alleviation of brain injury with good safety.

Novel condylar repositioning method for 3D-printed models / 대한악안면성형재건외과학회지

BACKGROUND: Along with the advances in technology of three-dimensional (3D) printer, it became a possible to make more precise patient-specific 3D model in the various fields including oral and maxillofacial surgery. When creating 3D models of the mandible and maxilla, it is easier to make a single unit with a fused temporomandibular joint, though this results in poor operability of the model. However, while models created with a separate mandible and maxilla have operability, it can be difficult to fully restore the position of the condylar after simulation. The purpose of this study is to introduce and asses the novel condylar repositioning method in 3D model preoperational simulation. METHODS: Our novel condylar repositioning method is simple to apply two irregularities in 3D models. Three oral surgeons measured and evaluated one linear distance and two angles in 3D models. RESULTS: This study included two patients who underwent sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO) and two benign tumor patients who underwent segmental mandibulectomy and immediate reconstruction. For each SSRO case, the mandibular condyles were designed to be convex and the glenoid cavities were designed to be concave. For the benign tumor cases, the margins on the resection side, including the joint portions, were designed to be convex, and the resection margin was designed to be concave. The distance from the mandibular ramus to the tip of the maxillary canine, the angle created by joining the inferior edge of the orbit to the tip of the maxillary canine and the ramus, the angle created by the lines from the base of the mentum to the endpoint of the condyle, and the angle between the most lateral point of the condyle and the most medial point of the condyle were measured before and after simulations. Near-complete matches were observed for all items measured before and after model simulations of surgery in all jaw deformity and reconstruction cases. CONCLUSIONS: We demonstrated that 3D models manufactured using our method can be applied to simulations and fully restore the position of the condyle without the need for special devices.

Single Posterior Approach for En-Bloc Resection and Stabilization for Locally Advanced Pancoast Tumors Involving the Spine: Single Centre Experience

STUDY DESIGN: Monocentric prospective study. PURPOSE: To assess the safety and effectiveness of the posterior approach for resection of advanced Pancoast tumors. OVERVIEW OF LITERATURE: In patients with advanced Pancoast tumors invading the spine, most surgical teams consider the combined approach to be necessary for “en-bloc” resection to control visceral, vascular, and neurological structures. We report our preliminary experience with a single-stage posterior approach. METHODS: We included all patients who underwent posterior en-bloc resection of advanced Pancoast tumors invading the spine in our institution between January 2014 and May 2015. All patients had locally advanced tumors without N2 nodes or distant metastases. All patients, except 1, benefited from induction treatment consisting of a combination of concomitant chemotherapy (cisplatin-VP16) and radiation. RESULTS: Five patients were included in this study. There were 2 men and 3 women with a mean age of 55 years (range, 46–61 years). The tumor involved 2 adjacent levels in 1 patient, 3 levels in 1 patient, and 4 levels in 3 patients. There were no intraoperative complications. The mean operative time was 9 hours (range, 8–12 hours), and the mean estimated blood loss was 3.2 L (range, 1.5–7 L). No patient had a worsened neurological condition at discharge. Four complications occurred in 4 patients. Three complications required reoperation and none was lethal. The mean follow-up was 15.5 months (range, 9–24 months). Four patients harbored microscopically negative margins (R0 resection) and remained disease free. One patient harbored a microscopically positive margin (R1 resection) and exhibited local recurrence at 8 months following radiation treatment. CONCLUSIONS: The posterior approach was a valuable option that avoided the need for a second-stage operation. Induction chemoradiation is highly suitable for limiting the risk of local recurrence.

Effect of ulinastatin on serum concentration of S100βprotein and NSE in patients undergoing supratento-rial tumor resection / 临床麻醉学杂志

Objective To observe the serum concentration of S100βprotein (S100β)and neuron specific enolase (NSE)in patients undergoing supratentorial tumor resection with ulinastatin treat-ment.Methods Twenty-four patients with supratentorial tumor resection,aged 18-65 years,ASA Ⅰor Ⅱ,were randomly divided into the control group (group A,n =12)and ulinastatin group (group U,n =12).Patients in group U received ulinastatin (2 kU/kg)at the beginning of the surgery,with the continuous dose of 1 kU·kg-1 ·h-1 till the end of the operation.Group A received equivalent volume of saline solution as the vehicle control.Blood samples were taken from the artery and jugular venous bulb before induction of anesthesia (T1 ),skin incision (T2 ),1 h after dura openning (T3 ),at the closure of dura (T4 ),at the end of operation (T5 )and 24 h after operation (T6 )to analyze the concentration of S100β and NSE.The concentration of S100β and NSE were determined by ELISA. Results The concentration of serum S100β and NSE increased more significantly higher at T3-T6 in group A than group U (P <0.01).The concentration of serum S100βand NSE in group U were lower than those in group A at T3-T5 (P < 0.01 ).Conclusion Ulinastatin reduces the concentration of serum S100βand NSE during surgery,indicating it alleviates brain injury during supratentorial tumor resection.

Research on the effect of endoscopic single nostril transsphenoidal pituitary tumor resection / 局解手术学杂志

Objective To discussion the effect of endoscopic single nostril transsphenoidal pituitary tumor resection on improving clini-cal symptoms and related quality of life of patients. Methods Selected 114 cases of patients with pituitary tumors in our hospital from August 2013 to August 2015, and randomly divided them into the nasal endoscopic group and the microscopic group according to the random number table,with 57 patients in each group. Patients of the 2 groups were treated with nasal endoscopic and microscopic single nostril transsphenoi-dal pituitary tumor resection respectively. The operation situation,hormone decline,incidence of complications after surgery and SNOT-20 and VAS score of the two groups were compared. Results Operative time of nasal endoscopic group was significantly higher than that in the mi-croscopic group,whlie the blood loss,length of hospital stay in endoscopic group was significantly lower than the microscopic group,and the difference was statistically significant (P0. 05). One week after operation,cerebrospinal fluid cell count,cerebrospinal fluid protein,adrenocorticotropic hormone,serum chloride,sodium, growth hormone,and prolactin levels of the nasal endoscopic group were lower than the microscopic group (P<0. 05). The complication rate was 14. 9% in the nasal endoscopic group,which was obviously lower than 59. 6% in the microscopic group (P<0. 05). One week after operation,the SNOT-20 scores and VAS scores were increased in both of the two groups,but the microscopic group increased more significantly (P<0. 05). Conclusion Endoscopic single nostril transsphenoidal pituitary tumor resection surgery cost longer operation time,but it lead to less trauma and less postoperative complications,which may delay the decline of patients’ quality of life and promote the improvement of prognosis.

Central retinal artery occlusion following orbital tumor resection: Is rapid intervention effective.

A 52‑year‑old male patient presented at our hospital with unilateral proptosis and vision loss in his left eye. Imaging evaluations showed orbital tumor, so the patient underwent surgery. About an hour later after tumor removal, patient developed sudden vision loss and became no light perception. Fundus evaluation revealed central retinal artery occlusion (CRAO). The patient was treated immediately with ocular massage and anterior chamber paracentesis as well as systemic therapy with mannitol and intravenous administration of acetazolamide. After thirty minutes, he recovered perception to light and then hand motion and 2 h later, it was improved to 1 m counting finger. CRAO following orbital tumor has not been reported before. We recommend ocular examination in all patients that undergo orbital surgery immediately to 2–3 h after surgery.
