RESUMO
Objective:To determine national trends for breast conserving surgery and to explore the factors affecting the scale of breast conserving surgery in China.Methods:A questionnaire survey was mailed to 110 hospitals with an year′s volume of more than 200 breast cancer surgeries in each center in China concerning hospital variations and percentage of breast conserving surgery.Results:The overall proportion of breast conserving surgery is 21.9% for operable breast cancer in China. There is a significant positive correlation between local Gross Domestic Product (GDP) and the rate of breast conserving surgery ( P=0.001). Hospitals with higher annual operation volume have higher breast-conserving ratios( P=0.042). Compared with non-teaching hospitals, more patients with stage I breast cancer underwent breast conserving surgery in teaching hospitals ( P=0.021). After breast-conserving surgery, the proportion of positive margins needing reoperation had a lower percentage and in cancer hospitals it was the lowest ( P=0.023). The method of pathological evaluation and the remedy strategy for positive margin was not related to per capita GDP and hospital category ( P>0.05). Conclusions:This survey demonstrates the current practices of breast conserving surgery in China. Local GDP, hospital category and tumor stage were factors influencing breast conserving surgery. Breast conserving surgery in China is still at a low level compared with developed countries.
RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the influence factors on surgical methods in DCIS (Ductal carcinoma in situ) patients,and the prognosis of different surgical methods in a 10-year single-center retrospective study.Methods We retrospectively included 1557 DCIS patients who received treatments in our center from Jan.2006 to Nov.2016.T tests,Chi-square analysis and logistic regression analysis were used to analyze influence factors on surgical methods.Kaplan-Meier and Log-rank analysis were used to evaluate recurrence-free survival(RFS) and loco-regional recurrence-free survival (LRRFS) in patients with different surgical methods.Results Of the enrolled 1557 DCIS patients,surgical methods included modified radical mastectomy,simple mastectomy (with or without axillary evaluation) and breast conservation surgery (with or without axillary evaluation).The number of DCIS cases in our center increased (P<0.001),so did the percentage of DCIS in annual malignant surgery cases (P=-0.026).Significant decrease was found in modified radical mastectomy (P=0.012).More than half of the patients received simple mastectomy after 2010,and more than one fifth of the patients received breast conservation surgery after 2008.About 13.99% patients who received mastectomy had breast reconstruction.The independent influence factors of refusing breast conservation surgery were age ≥ 50(P<0.001),medium nuclear grade (P=0.044),tumor size > 15mm (P<0.001) and spontaneous discharge (P<0.001).Patients with smaller tumor size (≤ 15mm) and no spontaneous discharge had 4.18-fold and 7.04-fold greater preference for breast conservation surgery,respectively(OR=0.232,P<0.001;OR=0.144,P<0.001).There were no significant differences in RFS and LRRFS in patients with different surgical methods.Conclusion The evaluation in trends and influence factors of different surgical methods provides basis on surgical precision medicine in DCIS patients.
RESUMO
Objectives@#To examine the influence factors on axillary evaluation in ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) patients, and the prognosis of different choices of axillary evaluation in a single-center retrospective study.@*Methods@#Totally 1 557 DCIS patients admitted in Department of Breast Surgery, Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center from January 2006 to November 2016 were retrospectively enrolled. All patients were female. The median age was 49 years (range: 21 to 85 years). Surgical methods included modified radical mastectomy, simple mastectomy (with or without axillary evaluation) and breast conservation surgery (with or without axillary evaluation). Axillary evaluation included axillary lymph node dissection (ALND) and sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB). T tests, χ2 test and Logistic regression analysis was used to analyze influence factors on axillary evaluation, respectively. Kaplan-Meier curve and Log-rank analysis were used to evaluate recurrence-free survival (RFS) and loco-regional recurrence-free survival (LRRFS) in patients with different surgical methods.@*Results@#Among the 1 557 DCIS patients, there were 1 226 cases received axillary evaluation, while 331 cases not received axillary evaluation. Patients were separated into 3 groups by different axillary evaluation choices: SLNB group (957 cases, 61.46%), ALND group (197 cases, 12.65%) and no evaluation group (403 cases, 25.88%). The patients in SLNB group increased significantly (P=0.000), from 3.85% (60/1 557) in 2006 to 75.19% (1 170/1 557) in 2016. The independent influence factors of receiving axillary evaluation were high nuclear grade (OR=3.191, 95%CI: 1.722 to 5.912, P=0.001) and tumor size>15 mm (OR=1.698, 95%CI: 1.120 to 2.573, P=0.012). Also, patients received breast conservation surgery were more likely to refuse axillary evaluation (OR=0.155, 95%CI: 0.103 to 0.233, P=0.000). There were no significant differences in RFS and LRRFS in patients with different axillary evaluation choices.@*Conclusions@#The investigation in trends and influence factors of different axillary evaluation choices provided basis on surgical precision medicine in DCIS patients. Patients received SLNB increased significantly. The independent influence factors of axillary evaluation were nuclear grade, tumor size and surgical methods. There was no significant differences in prognosis among the groups receiving different axillary evaluations.
RESUMO
Objective@#To investigate the current status of breast reconstruction surgery in China and analyze the specific views of Chinese doctors on the relationship between radiotherapy and breast reconstruction surgery.@*Methods@#A total of 110 medical institutions nationwide with more than 200 cases of breast cancer surgery yearly were selected into this questionnaire survey. The questionnaire survey included basic information of the surgeons and their hospitals, information of breast cancer surgeries in 2017, types of reconstruction surgery and specific views on the relationship between radiotherapy and reconstruction surgery.@*Results@#In total, 110 hospitals participated in the survey, 96(87.3%) had undergone breast reconstruction surgery. Reconstruction with implants accounted for 65.7% of the total reconstruction surgery and the proportion of autologous reconstruction was 20.1%. For patients who probably required postoperative radiotherapy, the preferred surgical procedure in the surveyed hospitals was implant based reconstruction surgery. For those who were confirmed to receive postoperative radiotherapy or had undergone radiotherapy after total mastectomy, autologous tissue reconstruction was recommended. Postoperative radiotherapy was a negative factor for immediate breast reconstruction, and most hospitals believed that radiotherapy exerted slight effect on surgery. The proportion of delay-immediate breast reconstruction reached 66% and 86% of hospitals preferred to replace with the prosthesis at 6 months after radiotherapy. Patients with local recurrence after breast-conserving surgery could also receive immediate reconstruction and implant reconstruction was the preferred surgical procedure.@*Conclusions@#The proportion of breast reconstruction in China is relatively low and Chinese doctors still lack of technical mastery. In the face of conflict with radiotherapy, the regime selected by Chinese doctors is not in accordance with those recommended by the guideline and consensus, prompting that more professional training should be delivered for Chinese doctors to further promote the development of breast reconstruction in China.
RESUMO
Objective@#To investigate the current trends of breast reconstruction(BR) after mastectomy in China.@*Methods@#A list of hospitals with more than 200 cases of breast cancer surgery per year nationwide was obtained, and 110 institutions were selected according to the geographical distribution. The research was conducted in the form of a questionnaire survey, and 92.3% (169/183) of the questions were single-choice questions. Information such as demographics of surgeons and hospitals, number of mastectomy and BR, type and timing of BR was included in the survey. Survey formal notification letter was issued by the China Anti-Cancer Association Breast Cancer Committee and Chinese College of Surgeons, Committee of Mammary Surgeons. Questionnaires were sent to the respondents of each center by email. The survey time range was from January 1, 2017 to December 31, 2017. All data were completely collected before September 7, 2018.@*Results@#A total of 110 units participated in the survey. In total, 87.3% (96/110) of the hospitals have conducted BR surgery. The BR after mastectomy was 10.7% (6 534/61 099), among this, implant BR accounted for 65.7%(4 296/6 534), autologous BR accounted for 20.1% (1 312/6 534), and autologous combined implant BR accounted for 14.2% (927/6 534). Immediate reconstruction accounted for 67.6% (4 417/6 534) of BR, while delayed BR accounted for 32.4% (2 097/6 534). In 2017, 77.8% (35/45) of the plastic surgery departments cooperated with general surgery departments. General BR could be conducted after mastectomy accounted for 83.6% (92/110). The proportion of reconstruction was positively correlated with the gross domestic product (GDP) per capita (r=0.311, P=0.002). The one-step implant-based BR(IBBR) was the most preferred type in immediate BR. Two-step IBBR was the most preferred method in delayed BR. Hospitals that routinely evaluated aesthetics after BR accounted for 64.6% (62/96), while only 16.7% (16/96) of hospitals used patient-reported outcome measure (PROM). The most commonly used PROM tool was BREAST-Q.@*Conclusions@#The overall BR in China is on upward trend, but gap between China and the developed countries still exists. Breast surgery departments should strengthen further cooperation with plastic surgery departments. Simultaneously, the aesthetics evaluation and PROM after BR should be put a high premium.
RESUMO
Objective@#To explore the current clinical practice of implant-based breast reconstruction (IBBR) in China.@*Methods@#The current survey was sponsored by Chinese Anti-Cancer Association, Committee of Breast Cancer Society and Chinese Society of Breast Surgeons. A survey was mailed to 110 hospitals in China, which have more than 200 breast cancer operations performed in 2017. The survey mainly included questions on the clinical practice of IBBR, sociodemographic and geographical factors associated with IBBR practice, reasons and concerns for selecting IBBR, type and timing of breast reconstruction, and the complications of IBBR. Data were analyzed using χ2 test, Fisher′s exact test or Kruskal-Wallis rank sum test.@*Results@#IBBR was available in 86.4% (95/110) included hospitals. It was predominantly performed breast reconstruction surgery, the proportion of IBBR in all the breast reconstruction was 65.75% (4 296/6 534). However, the rate of IBBR in all the patients received mastectomy was only 7.06% (4 296/60 877). Among all the included hospitals, the number of implant reconstructions performed in 2017 was 24 (57.5) cases (M(QR), range: 2-565 cases). Factors associated with the performance of IBBR including regional per capita gross domestic product (H=10.47, P=0.005) and annual surgery volume (H=8.30, P=0.016). The main reasons for choosing IBBR were relatively simple surgical procedure, short learning curve and short operation time. The effects of adjuvant radiotherapy on prosthesis, postoperative complications and patient satisfaction were the main concerns for implant reconstruction. Compared with delay reconstruction, a higher proportion of IBBR was observed in immediate reconstruction (83.1% vs. 62.0%, χ2=12.522, P=0.000). In all, 10.5% (10/95) hospitals reported more than 10% grade Ⅲ to Ⅳ capsular contracture. The incidence of infections need surgical intervention was reported between 10% and 20% by 4.2% (4/95) hospitals. Hospitals with 6% to 10% implant rupture and 6% to 15% implant removal were 1.1% (1/95) and 4.2% (4/95) respectively.@*Conclusions@#IBBR was the most common used surgery in breast reconstruction after mastectomy. However, the proportion of IBBR in patients after mastectomy was still low. Reginal economy, surgery volume of hospitals, lack of specialty training program and the concern about complications and patient′s satisfaction were the factors affecting the development of IBBR.
RESUMO
[Objective] To explore whether diabetes mellitus (DM) can influence the early bacterial translocation (BT) and progression of acute necrotizing pancreatitis (ANP) for guiding the early clinical treatment.[Methods] 35 Wistar male rats were randomly allocated to 4 groups,Group ANP associatcd with DM (DM+ANP,n =10):DM underwent induction of ANP;Group DM (n =10):DM underwent laparotomy with only manipulation of the pancreas and duodenum;Group ANP (n =10):non-DM underwent induction of ANP;Group sham operation (SO,n =5):non-DM underwent SO.After 12 h of the induction of ANP or laparotomy,the following parameters were analyzed:bacterial culture and identification of portal vein blood,mesenteric lymph nodes (MLNs),pancreas and liver,and calculate the total incidence of BT;serum amylase and endotoxin levels of portal vein blood;histological assessment of pancreas and ileum lesions.[Results] All animals except 3 in group DM+ANP (mortality rates:30%) and 1 in group ANP (mortality rates:10%) survived the experiment.The total incidence of BT was 23/28 (82.1%) in group DM+ANP whereas 16/36 (44.4%) in group ANP (P =0.002).Gram-positive bacteria were 17/23 (73.9%),3/16 (18.8%) in group DM+ANP and group ANP,respectively (P =0.001).Amylase activity (2302 ± 346) U/L in group ANP increased significantly (P =0.000) compared with other groups.However,group DM+ANP (501 ± 142) U/L decreased significantly (P =0.001) in comparison to group SO.Regarding to endotoxin concentrations and the severity of pancreas and ileum lesions,group DM + ANP increased significantly compared with group ANP,group DM and group SO (P < 0.05).[Conclusion] Gram-positive bacteria translocates more frequently than Gram-negative bacteria in the early period of DM+ANP rats.DM aggravates the progression of ANP and increases early bacterial translocation,endotoxemia and severity of pancreas and ileum lesions.
RESUMO
Background and purpose:Pathogenic gene polymorphism may affect the function of gene, leading to the difference of individual tumor susceptibility and heterogeneity of bioactive substances in individuals. The purpose of this study was to investigate the interrelationship betweenHER-2 gene polymorphism and its protein expression, and to evaluate their association with the clinicopathological characteristics of breast cancer.Methods:The data from a total number of 303 female breast cancer patients of Han ethnicity were collected. The MassARRAY platform was used to examineHER-2 gene rs2517954 and rs2517955 single nucleotide polymorphisms. Meanwhile immunohistochemistry was used to detect HER-2 protein expression and corresponding estrogen receptor (ER), progesterone receptor (PR), P53 and Ki-67 expressions in breast cancer tissues. Pearson chi-square test was used to study the relationship of the two loci and the protein expression, and their correlation with clinicopathological features of breast cancer was analyzed.Results:Under the codominant model,HER-2 gene rs2517954 and rs2517955 loci polymorphisms were associated with its protein expression (χ2=9.613,P=0.008;χ2=9.613,P=0.008). And under the dominant model,HER-2 gene rs2517955 loci TT homozygous and CT heterozygous mutant was associated with its protein expression (χ2=8.894,P=0.003). There were no signiifcant correlations betweenHER-2 gene rs2517954, and rs2517955 loci polymorphisms, and breast cancer patients’ clinical stage, tumor size, histological grade, lymph node metastasis, ER, PR, Ki-67 and P53 expressions (P>0.05).Conclusion:HER-2 gene rs2517955 loci polymorphism is correlated with its protein expression. Further studies may be helpful to elucidate the mechanism of HER-2 protein expression in breast cancer.
RESUMO
Objective To study the predictive value of preoperative blood CD4 +/CD8 + ratio in postoperative recurrence after hepatectomy for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.Methods The clinical data of 67 patients who underwent hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma at The Fifth Hospital Affiliated to Sun Yat-sen University were analyzed retrospectively.Using the preoperative blood CD4 +/CD8 + ratio,these patients were divided into 2 groups,the CD4 +/CD8 + < 1 group and the CD4 +/CD8 + ≥ 1 group.These patients were followed up at the outpatient clinic and/or by telephone till June 2013.The Cox ratio risk pattern analysis was used to determine the significant risk factors of tumor recurrence.Results On univariate analysis,preoperative AFP ≥400 μg/L,maximum diameter of tumor > 5 cm,number of tumor > 3,CD4 +/CD8 + < 1,vascular invasion,positive resection margin,and portal vein tumor thrombus were risk factors of poor disease-free survival (P < 0.05).On multivariant analysis,CD4 +/CD8 + < 1,number of tumor > 3,and portal vein tumor thrombus were independent predictors of poor disease-free survival after hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma (P < 0.05).Conclusions Preoperative CD4 +/CD8 + < 1 was an independent adverse predictor of poor disease-free survival.It was valuable in predicting postoperative recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma.
RESUMO
Objective To explore the efficacy of intraductal chilled saline perfusion (ICSP) to reduce the thermal bile duct injury during the treatment of radiofrequency ablation (RFA) associating with occlusion of hepatic blood supply in rabbits.Methods 16 healthy New Zealand white rabbits were divided into 2 groups.Rabbits of the ICSP group were placed tubes in the common bile duct after laparotomy,and ICSP was performed during the RFA procedure accompanied with hepatic blood occlusion.While for rabbits of the non-ICSP group,hepatic blood occlusion and RFA were performed without ICSP.RFA electrodes were placed about 5 mm away from the hilus hepatis approximately.Contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) was administrated to evaluate the sizes of the ablative zones after the procedure.On post-procedure 6 week,ultrasonography was prerformed to evaluate the changes of the biliary structure,and liver specimens of rabbits wcrc obtained for histopathologic observation of main bile ducts.Results Post-procedure CEUS examination showed that there was no significant difference in the size of the ablative zone between the groups (P >0.05).On post-procedure 6 week,rabbits of the ICSP group appeared with biliary dilatation more frequently by ultrasonography (P <0.05),and a higher degree of the injury of main bile duct by histopathologic observation (P <0.05).Conclusions In treatment of RFA accompanied with hepatic blood occlusion,RFA-induced bile duct injury may be decreased significantly with ICSP.
RESUMO
Objective To compare the bronchial blocker and double-lumen tube for one-lung ventilation in patients undergoing esophageal cancer resection.Methods Forty ASA physical status Ⅰ-Ⅲ patients of both sexes,aged 42-63 yr,scheduled for elective esophageal cancer resection,were randomly divided into 2 groups (n =20 each):double-lumen endotracheal tube group (group DLT) and bronchial blocker group (group BB).After induction of anesthesia,the patients were intubated with a left-sided double-lumen endotracheal tube and correct positioning was verified by fiberoptic bronchoscopy in group DLT.After induction of anesthesia,the patients were intubated with a conventional single-lumen endotracheal tube,and then the bronchial blocker was inserted under the guidance of fiberoptic bronchoscope in group BB.The intubation time,one-lung ventilation time,time to achieve lung collapse,operation time,extubation time,tube malposition and hypoxemia were recorded.The lung collapse was scored at the end of operation.Hoarseness and throat sore within 2 days after extubation and pulmonary infections within 7 days after operation were recorded.Results Compared with group DLT,intubation time and time to achieve lung collapse were significantly prolonged,and the incidence of hoarseness and throat sore within 2 days after extubation was decreased in group BB (P < 0.05).There was no significant difference in the one-lung ventilation time,operation time,extubation time,lung collapse score,incidence of tube malposition,hypoxemia and pulmonary infections within 7 days after operation between the two groups (P > 0.05).Conclusion The efficacy of bronchial blocker is similar to that of double-lumen tube when used for one-lung ventilation in patients undergoing esophageal cancer resection.
RESUMO
Between January 2011 and December 2011,86 patients undergoing operation for anorectal disease were randomized in a double-blind manner to receive a mixed injection of methylene blue,ropivacaine and sodium chloride (observation group,n =43) or traditional analgesic methods (control group,n =43).Patients in observation group had less visual analog scale (VAS) scores of pain at 6-48 h postoperation than control group (P <0.05).The scores had no significant difference at 72 h postoperation between two groups (P > 0.05).The total postoperative complications (8,19%) and hospitalization duration [(5.3 ± 2.2) days] in observation group were significantly less than those [15,35 % and (6.4 ±1.7) days] in control group (P < 0.05).A mixed injection of methylene blue and ropivacaine intraoperatively can relieve the postoperative pain of patients with anorectal disease and reduce the incidence of postoperative complications and the duration of hospitalization.
RESUMO
Objective To study the effects of postoperative immune-enhancing enteral nutrition (IEEN)on the liver function and postoperative infectious complications after hepatectomy in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma.Methods Between January 2010 and December 2011,96 patients undergoing hepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma were randomized in a double-blind manner to receive postoperative enteral nutrition with IEEN (IEEN group,n =48) or standard enteral nutrition (control group,n =48) for 5 days,respectively.Calorie and nitrogen of the same quantity were provided for both groups from the first day after surgery.The liver function tests and routine blood tests were performed.The postoperative hospital stay and postoperative infectious complications were also compared between these two groups.Results The serum albumin,prealbumin,alanine aminotransferase,and total bilirubin levels had no significant differences between the two groups (all P > 0.05).On the 6th day after operation,the level of total lymphocyte count was significantly higher in the IEEN group than that in the control group [(2106 ± 1057) vs.(1648 ± 1079) / μL,P =0.038).The postoperative hospital stay was (10.3 ±5.6) days in the IEEN group and (13.4 ±6.7) days in the control group (P =0.016).Postoperative infectious complications were observed in 8 (16.7%) patients in the IEEN group and 17 (35.4%) patients in the control group (P =0.036).Conclusion Early postoperative IEEN can improve the clinical outcomes of liver cancer patients after hepatectomy.
RESUMO
Objective To explore the causation,diagnosis and management of iatrogenic bile duct injury(BDI) of laparoscopic cholecystectomy(LC).Methods A total of 1 656 patients undergoing laparoscopic cholecystectomy in our department during the last 7 years were included in this study for retrospective analysis.Results There were 274 patients with gallbladder polyps,168 patients with acute calculous cholecystitis and 1214 patients with chronic calculous cholecystitis.There were 15 BDIs associated with LC(0.91%).A total of 8 BDI patients were diagnosed during cholecystectomy.The remaining 7 BDI patients were diagnosed postoperatively.The intraoperative diagnosis of BDI was made on the discovery of bile leakage or double biliary stump during cholecystectomy.Clinical features,diagnostic abdominocentesis and imaging findings formed the basis of diagnosis of BDI postoperatively.One BDI patient was treated by repairing the injuried common bile duct with a T-tube drinage.Four BDI patients were treated by end-to-end anastomosis of injuried bile duct,and one of the four patients was reoperated with Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy because of bile leakage.The remaining 10 BDI patients were treated by Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy,and good results were achieved in all of these patients.Conclusions There is no relationship between the etiology of gallbladder disease and BDI during laparoscopic cholecystectomy.Good results can be achieved if BDI is diagnosed early and treated properly during or after operation.Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy is the primary operation method for treating BDI.
