Prevention and treatment of hepatic artery dissection in donors and recipients during liver transplantation / 器官移植

Hepatic artery reconstruction is one of the key procedures in liver transplantation. Accidental dissection of the hepatic artery to be reconstructed caused by donor and recipient factors or surgical factors will disrupt the surgical plan, increase the difficulty of arterial reconstruction, significantly prolong the operation time, increase the risk of postoperative arterial stenosis and thrombosis and probably lead to acute allograft failure, which requires emergency surgical interventions or even secondary liver transplantation. Understanding of how to avoid dissection of the artery to be anastomosed during liver transplantation and corresponding treatment will contribute to preventing the incidence of artery-related complications during liver transplantation and improving clinical prognosis of liver transplant recipients. In this article, the causes, prevention and treatment of hepatic artery dissection and hepatic artery reconstruction in donors and recipients during liver transplantation were illustrated.

The basic design of CBL teaching course in clinical practice on clinical treatment options / 中华医学教育探索杂志

Taking case discussion of clinical treatment options of primary liver cancer during clinical internship as an example, the course design of basic elements of case-based learning (CBL) was discussed. The purpose of clinical practice is to cultivate the clinical thinking ability of "selecting the best one from multiple treatment options", which is suitable for taking CBL teaching method. The design of CBL course includes 8 elements: teaching object, purpose, objectives, course content, implementation plan, key points for assessment, course evaluation and reference materials. The core points of the design of CBL course are that: ①The teaching objectives include knowledge, ability and professionalism; ②The course content should includes the training of decision-making organizations and clinical thinking ability of selecting the best one from multiple treatment options; ③The general CBL teaching procedure can be adopted in the implementation of the scheme that focuses on the decision-making issues defined in each decision-making step. The teaching practice of CBL on primary liver cancer cases discussion shows the basic design of CBL course is universal, which is helpful for teachers to design and implement CBL course on clinical treatment options.

Primary resection and anastomosis with intraoperative colonic defecation in left colonic cancer with complete obstruction / 国际外科学杂志

Objective To assess the value of primary resection and anastomosis with intraoperative colonic defecation in the patients with obstructive left colonic cancer. Methods From January 2000 to January 2008, 39 patients undergoing emergency laparotomy for left colonic cancers with complete obstruction were analyzed retrospectively. Results The patients were 25 males and 14 females, with a median age of 68.5 years (range: 57～78 years). The primary tumors were located at splenic flexure (3/7.7%), descending colon (8/20.5%), sigmoid colon (15/38.5%), boundary of sigmoid colon and rectum (8/20.5%), and superior segment of rectum (5/12.8%). Primary resection and anastomosis with intraoperative colonic de-fection were performed in 18 patients with left hemicolectomy, 13 patients with sigmoid colectomy and 8 pa-tients with anterior resection. Early complications included wound infection in 4 patients (wound disruption in 1 patient) and pulmonary infection in 5 patients. One patient complicated with anastomotic leakage and intra-abdominal abscess died of tumor metastasis after reoperation. Another one died of respiratory failure secondary to pulmonary infection. Morbidity and mortality was 25.6% and 5.1% respectively. Conclusion Primary resection with intraoperative colonic defecation can be applied to patients with malignant colonic complete obstruction with good operative results.

Primary resection and anastomosis without intraoperative colonic irrigation in left colonic cancer with complete obstruction / 中华急诊医学杂志

Objective To assess the value of primary resection and anastomosis without intraoperative irrigation in the patients with obstructive left colonic cancer. Method Between January 2000 and January 2008, 93patients underwent primary resection and anastomosis for colonic cancers were analyzed retrospectively. Primary resection and anastomosis without intraoperative colonic irrigation (decompression by manual defecation) was performed in 43 patients with obstructive left colonic caner and traditional left-sided colectomy in 50 cases without obstruction. Both groups of patients were comparable in terms of gender, nutritional status, underlaying disease, tumor location and stage, etc ( P = 0.83,0.13,0.29,0.51,0.38). The average age of the patients with colonic obstruction was significant older than that of the cases without obstruction (61.2 ± 8.6 vs. 58.1 ±7.8, P =0.010).The operative results were compared between patients with obstructive colonic cancer and cases without obstruction.Results The mean hospital stay of the primary anastomosis group and traditional left-sided colectomy group were (16.6±7.8) d and (12.4±5.4) d respectively, and the former was significant longer than the latter (P =0.002). The costs of hospitalization in the two groups were (50192.8 ± 39727.4) RMB and (46489.3 ±29543.1)RMB respectively (P = 0.04) . The morbidity and mortality in the two groups were 25.6% (11/43) vs. 18%(9/50) (P =0.375) and 2.3% (1/43) vs. 2.0% (1/50) (P =0.714) respectively, and there were no significant difference between the two groups. Conclusions Primary resection and anastomosis without intraoperative colonic irrigation (decompression by manual defecation) compares favorably with traditional left-sided colectomy in safety and efficiency for left colonic cancer with obstruction.
