RESUMEN
Objective To summarize the brain protection application experiences of combined internal and external blood shunt technologies for the in-situ three-fenestration revascularization of aortic arch.Methods From Feb 2017 to Jun 2018,8 patients with aortic arch leisons were treated by the in-situ three-fenestration techniques,including 3 aortic dissection,2 aortic aneurysm,3 postoperative TEVAR patients.We adopt the method of internal and external blood shunt technologies for brain protection using the vascular sheath for fenestration combined with carotid shunt tube skills,and using TCD to monitor the blood flow of brain.Results All operations completed successfully,and TCD showed no significant cerebral ischemia when aortic stent was used to cover the three branches of the aorta.The mean time of brain protection was (17.62 ± 6.87) minutes.One patient developed transient cerebral ischemia after surgery,and another one developed cerebral infarction.Conclusions The brain protection strategy of internal bypass combined with external converter technology maintain the brain blood flow,while is simple and feasible,it cannot completely avoid neurological complications.
RESUMEN
Objective To evaluate the endoscopic features of colorectal sessile serrated adenoma/polyp(SSA/P). Methods The data of 109 cases of SSA/P and 218 cases of polyps randomly selected in Xijing Hospital from January 2014 to December 2016 were collected. The endoscopic features of SSA/P and polyps were compared, and the risk factors of occurrence and cancerization of SSA/P were analyzed. Results The mean age of patients in the SSA/P group was older than that of polyps group(P=0.011).The distribution of lesions was no significant difference between the two groups(P=0.092). The gross type of SSA/P was mainly type Ⅰ and Ⅱ, while polyps were more in type Ⅰ(P=0.036). According to the pit pattern of Kudo,type Ⅱ was more in SSA/P,but types Ⅰ and Ⅱ were more in polyps(P=0.004). For capillary pattern comparison,type Ⅱ was more in SSA/P,but type Ⅰ was more in polyps(P≤0.000 1). For surface morphological features comparison,the SSA/P group was more likely to be observed the mucous cap(P=0.002)and blood vessel thickening(P=0. 004). On pathologic diagnosis, the SSA/P group was more susceptible to atypia and carcinogenesis(P = 0.001). Higher microvascular morphological classification,being mucous cap,and blood vessel thickening were risk factors of atypia and carcinogenesis of SSA/P. Conclusion There were significant differences between SSA/P and polyps on lesion location,pit pattern,capillary pattern,surface structure characteristics,and risk factors of atypia and carcinogenesis.
RESUMEN
Objective To compare the safety and efficacy of endoscopic submucosal tunnel dissection (ESTD) and endoscopic submucosal dissection ( ESD) for treatment of esophageal superficial neoplasms. Methods A retrospective study was performed on data of patients with esophageal superficial neoplasms who were treated by conventional ESD or ESTD at Xijing Hospital of Digestive Diseases between January 2014 and December 2016. The procedure time, pathology, rate of en bloc resection and curative resection, and adverse events were compared between the two groups. Results A total of 113 consecutive patients were collected, including 49 undergoing ESTD and 64 undergoing ESD. ESTD had a shorter procedure time than ESD method [38. 0 min(21. 4-71. 0 min) VS 46. 5 min(32. 5-117. 5 min), P=0. 008],and the dissection speed of ESTD was faster than that of ESD[0. 42 cm2/min(0. 22-0. 59 cm2/min) VS 0. 34 cm2/min(0. 20-0. 42 cm2/min), P=0. 000]. There were no statistical differences in the en bloc resection rate ( 100. 0% VS 100. 0%, P=1. 000) or the curative resection rate (98. 0% VS 93. 8%, P=0. 386).There were no statistical differences on adverse event rates including post-procedure bleeding, perforation, fever, and thoracalgia.ESTD group showed a lower rate of muscular injury (20. 4% VS 39. 1%, P=0. 041) and intra-procedure bleeding (18. 4% VS 37. 5%, P=0. 036). A multivariate regression analysis for procedure time showed that ESTD method ( OR= 2. 801, 95%CI: 1. 116-7. 031, P=0. 028) and lesion area <9 cm2(OR=5. 049, 95%CI: 2. 088-12. 208, P=0. 000) were associated with a shorter procedure time.Conclusion ESTD is safe and effective for treatment of esophageal superficial neoplasms. It can shorten operative time, improve dissection speed, and reduce intra-procedure muscular layer injury and bleeding.
RESUMEN
Objective To explore risk factors of influencing operating efficiency of endoscopic submucosal dissection (ESD) for gastric mucosal lesions. Methods The data of 304 cases with gastric mucosal lesion undergoing ESD in Xijing Hospital of Digestive Disease from April 2009 to February 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. The procedure time and complete resection rate ( R0 resection rate ) were regarded as indicators of ESD efficiency. Risk factors influencing procedure time and R0 resection rate were analyzed using Chi-square test and logistic regression. Results Using median procedure time of 45 min as the cutoff value, Chi-square test showed that specimen size ( P=0. 000) , lesion location ( P=0. 001) , and pathological type ( P=0. 003) affected the operation time. Further logistic regression analysis indicated that specimen size (≥40 mm/<40 mm, P<0. 001, OR=3. 748, 95%CI: 2. 247-6. 254) and lesion location (upper or middle 1/3 of stomach/lower 1/3 of stomach, P=0. 001, OR=2. 180, 95%CI: 1. 318-3. 606) were independent risk factors of procedure time. Using R0 resection as outcome measure, neither single nor multiple parameter analysis was statistically significant. Conclusion Specimen size and lesion location are independent risk factors influencing efficiency of gastric mucosal ESD, and could be possibly used to estimate the procedure time of ESD.
RESUMEN
<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>This study investigates the circadian variation rules of the clock gene Per2 and clock-controlled genes of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF), Ki67, c-Myc, and P53 in different stages of carcinogenesis in buccal mucosa carcinoma and their roles in the development of buccal mucosa carcinoma.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Ninety Syrian golden hamsters were housed under. 12 h light/12 h dark cycles. Dimethylbenzanthracene (DMBA) was used to establish the carcinoma model by smearing the golden hamster buccal mucosa. Before DMBA painting and after 6 and 14 weeks, the hamsters were sacrificed at six time points within a period of 24 h (i.e., 4, 8, 12, 16, 20, and 24 h after light onset), and the normal buccal mucosa, precancerous lesions, and cancer tissues were simultaneously obtained. Hematoxylin and eosin stained sections were prepared to observe the canceration of each tissue. Real time polymerase chain reaction was used to detect the mRNA expression of Per2, VEGF, Ki67, c-Myc, and P53. Cosine analysis was employed to determine the circadian-rhythm variations of Per2, VEGF, Ki67, c-Myc, and P53 mRNA expression in terms of median, amplitude, and acrophase.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The expression of Per2, VEGF, P53, and c-Myc mRNA in three different stages appeared with circadian rhythms (P<0.05), whereas the Ki67 mRNA was expressed with circadian rhythm only in normal and precancerous lesion stages (P<0.05). The midline-estimating statistic of rhythms (MESORs) of Per2 and P53 mRNA were significantly down-regulated with the development of cancer (P<0.05), whereas the MESORs of VEGF, c-Myc, and Ki67 mRNA were up-regulated (P<0.05). The amplitude of P53 mRNA significantly decreased with the development of cancer (P<0.05). Moreover, compared with the normal group, the amplitudes of Per2, VEGF, Ki67, and c-Myc mRNA significantly increased in precancerous lesions and cancer tissue (P<0.05). In precancerous stage, the acrophases of Per2, VEGF, and c-Myc mRNA were earlier than that in the normal group, whereas that of Ki67 and P53 mRNA were delayed.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The circadian-rhythm characteristics of the clock gene Per2 and clock-controlled gene expression of VEGF, Ki67, c-Myc, and P53 mRNA have changed with the occurrence and development of carcinoma.</p>
