RESUMO
Objective:To compare the effectiveness of areola approach endoscopic thyroidectomy (AET) and conventional open thyroidectomy (OT) in treating papillary thyroid carcinoma.Methods:Four hundred and twenty-eight female patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma who were treated at the Department of General Surgery, Beijing Friendship Hospital between January 2017 and January 2020 were included according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, of whom 183 underwent AET (AET group) and 245 underwent OT (OT group). Direct comparison and subsequent propensity score matching methodology were utilized to compare the differences between the two operation methods in terms of surgical time, intraoperative parathyroid transplantation rate, intraoperative nerve injury, postoperative complications, reoperation rate, number of lymph node dissections, postoperative lymph node metastasis at 2 years, and route tumor implantation. Data analysis was performed by using SPSS 25.0 software. The metric data of normal distribution was represented by mean ± standard deviation ( ± s), and the t-test was used for between-group comparison. The Chi-test was used for between-group comparison of count data. Results:The AET group had an age of (38.89±9.08) years, weight of (62.10±10.45) kg, and height of (161.97±5.31) cm; the OT group had an age of (45.88±12.47) years, weight of (65.11±12.72) kg, and height of (161.62±5.24) cm. The differences in age, weight, and body mass index between the two groups were statistically significant ( P<0.05). The surgical time in the AET group was (183.00±137.22) min, which was significantly longer than (87.94±28.25) min of the OT group ( t=16.67, P<0.001). The parathyroid transplantation rate in the OT group was significantly higher than that in the AET group (49.39% vs 34.97%, χ2=8.87, P=0.003). There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of intraoperative nerve injury, postoperative complications, reoperation rate, number of lymph node dissections, postoperative lymph node metastasis at 2 years, and route tumor implantation. After propensity score matching based on differences in age, weight, body mass index, and soon, 183 cases of AET (AET-PS group) and OT (OT-PS group) were obtained for statistical analysis. The surgical time in the AET-PS group was (137.22±32.77) min, which was significantly longer than (90.26±29.35) min of the OT-PS group ( t=14.44, P<0.001). The parathyroid transplantation rate in the OT-PS group was significantly higher than that in the AET-PS group (53.01% vs. 34.97%, χ2=12.08, P=0.001). There were no statistically significant differences between the two groups in terms of intraoperative nerve injury, postoperative complications, reoperation rate, number of lymph node dissections, postoperative lymph node metastasis at 2 years, and route tumor implantation. Conclusions:AET and OT are equally safe and effective in treating papillary thyroid carcinoma. AET surgery can be performed safely and feasibly under strict adherence to surgical principles.
RESUMO
Objective:To explore the preventive value of "integrated prevention strategy" for nipple and areola ischemia after single-port endoscopic subcutaneous mastectomy.Methods:The clinical data of 72 patients with breast cancer who received single-port endoscopic subcutaneous mastectomy in Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University from July 2019 to July 2021 were retrospectively analyzed, they were all female. The follow-up period was up to July 2022. According to the perioperative treatment methods, the patients were divided into observation group ( n=40) and control group ( n=32). The patients in the observation group who adopted the "integrated prevention strategy" scheme, and patients in the control group who adopted the conventional treatment scheme. The incidence of postoperative nipple and areola ischemic was compared between the two groups, and the postoperative cosmetic effect, quality of life and satisfaction of patients were evaluated. Measurement data were expressed as mean ± standard deviation ( ± s), and t-test was used for comparison between groups; the Chi-square test was used to compare the data groups. Results:The postoperative drainage volume in the observation group was significantly lower than that in the control group [(632.40±226.37) mL vs (774.91±239.85) mL], and the difference was statistically significant ( P=0.013). Two weeks after operation, there was 1 case of nipple and areola ischemia in the observation group, and 7 cases in the control group, the difference was statistically significant between the two groups ( P=0.019). Twelve months after operation, the score of breast satisfaction (83.93±11.64 vs 67.28±11.52), chest satisfaction (89.63±8.06 vs 83.03±9.49) and psychosocial well-being (89.43±12.42 vs 78.88±10.40) in the observation group were better than those in the control group, the differences were statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusion:"Integrated prevention strategy" can effectively prevent the occurrence of nipple and areola ischemic after single-port endoscopic subcutaneous mastectomy and improve patient satisfaction, which has certain promotion value.
RESUMO
Objective:To explore the significance of exposing the circummammary ligament under endoscopy and the effect of membrane anatomy in breast reconstruction.Methods:The case data of 49 breast cancer patients who underwent endoscopic nipple-sparing mastectomy combined with one-stage breast reconstruction with prosthesis implantation in Beijing Friendship Hospital, Capital Medical University from February 2014 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed, there were 44 cases of posterior pectoralis prosthesis implantation, 5 cases of anterior pectoralis prosthesis implantation. The anatomical structure of the circummammary ligament was observed under endoscopy during operation, and the annular mammary ligament was used as an anatomical marker to complete subcutaneous glandectomy and prosthesis implantation for breast reconstruction, the BREAST-Q scales were used to evaluate the postoperative effect.Results:The medial sternal ligament, sub clavicular ligament, lateral confluence ligament and triangular ligament condensation could be clearly exposed in all 49 cases. Breast reconstruction module of BREAST-Q were used to evaluate the surgery effect after breast cancer surgery, the scores of postoperative breast satisfaction, chest wall status, psychosocial status and sexual health status were 81.43±12.57, 88.39±10.61, 88.04±13.70, 74.82±15.93.Conclusion:The endoscopic technique is beneficial to expose the circummammary ligament during operation, and surgical resection and reconstruction can better restore the appearance of the breast and improve postoperative satisfaction according to the principle of membrane anatomy.

There were no complications such as postoperative bleeding, infection, ischemic necrosis of nipple-areola complex or skin flap, postoperative movement deformity, postoperative chest wall pain, capsular contracture, prosthesis exposure or removal. The BREAST-Q scale was used to evaluate the quality of life and satisfaction after breast reconstruction. Postoperative breast satisfaction (55-100 points), chest wall status (52-89 points), and social psychological status (62-100 points) can be compared High rating.Conclusion:The single-port inflatable endoscopic prepectoral prosthesis implantation breast reconstruction (Off-Label) can achieve better radical effect and cosmetic effect through a shorter operation time, and the postoperative quality of life and satisfaction of patients are higher.
RESUMO
Objective To evaluate pancreatic duct stenting for acute biliary pancreatitis with difficult endoscopic cannulation. Methods From January 2005 to December 2009, in patients with acute biliary pancreatitis who needed intervention of emergency ERCP, a total of 81 cases were found to be with difficult cannulation and were randomly divided into either treatment group (n = 35 ) to receive pancreatic duct stenting, or control group (n =46) to receive the procedure without pancreatic duct stenting. All patients were treated with same medication, and the pancreatic stents were removed after stabilization at a mean time of 11days after ERCP. All patients were followed up for 3 months after discharging from the hospital. Results There was no significant difference between two groups in regarding of mean age, the time from onset to endoscopy, Glasgow scores and relevant biochemical parameters, but the occurrence of postoperative complications was significantly higher in control group than that of the treatment group ( 17. 39% vs. 5. 71%*, P ＜0. 01 ). Conclusion Pancreatic duct stenting is a safe and bridging procedure for patients with acute billiary pancreatitis, which can also reduce complications.
