ObjectiveTo investigate changes in anal dynamics and anorectal sensory function in patients with irritable bowel syndrome with constipation (IBS-C) and detect its status of basin’s myoelectric pressure. MethodsThirty-six patients with IBS-C (IBS-C group) and 28 healthy volunteers (control group) were collected. The rectal-anal canal pressure and the change of the basin’s myoelectric status were detected by the ZJ-D3 gastrointestinal motility tester and bio-stimulus feedback instrument, respectively. The anal canal resting pressure, rectal resting pressure, anorectal pressure difference, length of anal canal high pressure area, rectal sensation threshold, rectal compliance, and basin’s myoelectric voltage were compared between these two groups. ResultsThere were no significant differences in the rectal resting pressure and anal canal resting pressure between the IBS-C group and the control group (t=–2.312, P=0.851; t=–5.464, P=0.283), but the difference value of anorectal pressure of the IBS-C group was significantly higher than that of the control group (t=4.371, P=0.017), and the length of the anal canal hypertension area in the IBS-C group was significantly longer than that of the control group (t=6.180, P=0.042). The maximal and minimum basin’s myoelectric voltage and frequency of the basin’s myoelectric voltage in the IBS-C group were significantly higher than those in the control group (t=3.386, P=0.031; t=5.763, P=0.042; t=8.410, P<0.001). ConclusionAnorectal dynamics and rectal sensory dysfunction are one of important causes of IBS-C, it might be existed abnormal changes in basin’s myoelectric voltage.
目的總結結腸冗長癥合并結直腸癌的臨床病理特征,并文獻復習結腸冗長癥與結直腸癌的關系。 方法回顧性分析蘭州大學第一醫院普外一科2011年1月至2012年12月期間收治的17例結腸冗長癥合并結直腸癌患者的臨床資料。 結果184例結直腸癌患者中合并結腸冗長癥17例(9.24%),合并家族性息肉病惡變2例(1.09%),合并遺傳性非息肉病性結直腸癌1例(0.54%),合并炎癥性腸病1例(0.54%)。合并結腸冗長癥的比例較高(P<0.05)。其中術前經結腸氣鋇灌腸檢查診斷為結腸冗長癥5例,術中診斷為結腸冗長癥12例。所有患者均行手術治療,切除結腸13~80 cm,平均33.8 cm。術后發生肺部感染、切口液化1例,腹水1例,腸瘺1例,骶前感染1例。術后17例患者均獲隨訪,隨訪時間6~12個月,中位數為10個月。隨訪期間,1例患者于術后1年出現卵巢轉移。 結論結腸冗長癥合并頑固性便秘可能是結直腸癌發病的高危因素。
Objective Both stapled transanal rectal resection (STARR) and vaginal bridge repair are new operative techniques for treatment of rectocele transanal and transvaginal, respectively. In this study we observe the clinical outcomes for STARR as compared with vaginal bridge repair procedure. Methods The clinical data of 31 patients with obstructive defecation syndrome from January 2007 to May 2009 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into 2 groups according to different operative approach: STARR group (n=18) and bridge repair suture group (n=13). The clinical outcomes observed were operative time, blood loss, length of stay, cost of hospitalization, complication and the improvement of obstructed defecation syndrome. Results There was no difference in the age and severity in the patients of two groups. Evaluation of the clinical outcomes showed 16 (88.9%) patients in the STARR group and 6 (46.2%) in the bridge repair suture group reported improvement in symptoms (P=0.017). STARR had a shorter operative time (24.6 min vs. 33.2 min, Plt;0.01), less estimated blood loss (3.9 ml vs. 16.2 ml, Plt;0.01), more costly (10 743 yuan vs. 3 543 yuan, Plt;0.01) and a higher anal incontinenc rate but reversible. The length of stay was similar (average 6 d). Conclusion The stapled transanal rectal resection procedure is more superior to the vaginal bridge repair suture for improvement of obstructed defecation syndrome from rectocele, however, it has a higher cost and some patient with reversible slight anal incontinence after surgery.
ObjectiveTo research on the condition of constipation during the first 30 days after hip fracture. MethodsOne hundred and four patients with hip fracture treated between May 2014 and March 2015 participated in this study. We judged whether there was constipation by recording the defecation pattern and stool consistency in three time periods: from admission to the time just before surgery, from the end of surgery to the time of discharge, and from discharge to 30 days after injury. The defecation pattern was assessed using Bristol Stool Scale and a scale of four-stage defecation was used to assess the stool consistency. ResultsThere were 51.9% (54) of the patients who developed constipation during the first time period, 69.0% (69) during the second time period, and 63.4% (59) in the third time period. The proportion increased by 17% during the second period over the first (P=0.003), while there was no significant difference between the latter two time periods (P=0.581). Normal defecation pattern was re-established 9.7 days after surgery, though 23.7% (22) of the patients did not re-establish normal defecation pattern within the first 30 days after injury. ConclusionThe incidence of constipation during the first 30 days after hip fracture is high. The results imply that further studies are needed to prevent constipation.
