RESUMO
Objective@#To explore the diagnosis and treatment of ductal malformations of the submandibular gland with multiple stones.@*Methods@# A case of a malformation of Wharton′s duct with multiple sialoliths according to the clinical data, diagnosis and treatment of the patient was analyzed retrospectively.@*Results@#The patient′s physical examination and CBCT showed a tumor on the left floor of the mouth. In this case, it was found that the mass was a malformation of Wharton′s duct with multiple sialoliths according to operative exploration. The postoperative pathological examination showed (left submaxillary) salivation gland tissue, duct dilation and duct epithelia hyperplasia, duct calculus, and a large number of lymphocytes proliferating around the duct; 1 month after the follow-up, the patient had healed well. Through literature review and analysis, it was found that cases of submandibular ductal malformation with multiple stones were rare and should be carefully differentiated from arteriovenous malformation at the base of the mouth. Calculi of the submandibular gland can be removed by incision through the oral submandibular duct or by combined resection of the submandibular gland and ductal calculi, and some smaller calculi can also be treated by endoscopy of the salivary gland. @* Conclusion@# In cases of submandibular ductal malformation with multiple stones, intraoral and extraoral incisions should be performed simultaneously to remove the associated ductal stones.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the risk factors of pancreatic ductal stones (PDS) combined with malignant tumor beside stones.Methods The retrospective case control study was conducted.The clinicopathological data of 190 patients with PDS who underwent surgical treatment at the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University (Third Military Medical University) between January 2008 and June 2017 were collected.Of 190 patients,175 and 15 were detected PDS complicated with chronic pancreatitis and malignant tumor beside stones respectively.Observation indicators:(1) risk factors analysis of PDS combined with malignant tumor beside stones;(2) follow-up and survival situations.Follow-up using outpatient examination and telephone interview was done to detect treatment of patients who had PDS combined with malignant tumor beside stones and postoperative survival up to December 2017.Univariate analysis was done by chi-square test,Fisher exact probability or rank sum test,and multivariate analysis was done using Logistic regression model.The survival curve was drawn and survival rate was calculated by Kaplan-Meier method.Results (1) Risk factors analysis of PDS combined with malignant tumor beside stones:results of univariate analysis showed that increased serum tumor markers,diameter of PDS,common bile duct dilation or compression,pancreatic parenchymatous atrophy were related factors affecting PDS combined with malignant tumor beside stones (x2 =12.501,Z =-2.508,x2 =12.230,5.863,P＜0.05).Results of multivariate analysis showed that increased serum tumor markers,common bile duct dilation or compression,pancreatic parenchymatous atrophy were independent risk factors affecting PDS combined with malignant tumor beside stones (odds ratio:5.482,8.062,4.993,95％ confidence interval:1.556-19.313,1.620-40.107,1.188-20.977,P＜0.05).(2) Follow-up and survival situations:162 of 190 patients were followed up for 2-111 months with a median time of 20 months,including 149 of PDS complicated with chronic pancreatitis and 13 of PDS combined with malignant tumor beside stones.During the follow-up,the 1-,3-,5-year overall survival rates after operation were 46.7％,6.7％ and 0 in 13 patients of PDS combined with malignant tumor beside stones,and 3 patients received postoperative chemotherapy.The 1-,3-,5-year overall survival rates of the 149 patients who had PDS combined with chronic pancreatitis were 97.0％,93.5％,91.6％.Conclusion Increased serum tumor markers,common bile duct dilation or compression,pancreatic parenchymatous atrophy are independent risk factors affecting PDS combined with malignant tumor beside stones.
