Objective To study the feasibility of radical resection of gallbladder cancer with extensive invasion. Methods A patient of the gallbladder cancer with invasion of liver, gastric antrum, duodenum, caput pancreatis and colon transversum, was received radical resection (including pancreatoduodenectomy, hepatectomy and colectomy). Results Seven months later, the value of CEA and Hb were normal and cancer recurrence was not observed. Conclusion The radical resection of gallbladder cancer with extensive invasion, can improve survival quality and extent survival time.
ObjectiveTo explore the reasonable and feasible safe distance for radical resection of hepatic alveolar echinococcosis (HAE). MethodsLiver samples were collected prospectively from 20 HAE patients (from Jan. 2019 to Jun. 2019) undergoing liver resection in West China Hospital of Sichuan University. A total of three samples containing lesion and adjacent liver tissue were collected from each patient, which were divided into lesion group, 0 to0.5 cm liver tissue group (contained 0.5 cm), 0.5 to 1.0 cm liver tissue group (contained 1.0 cm), 1.0 to 1.5 cm liver tissue group (contained 1.5 cm), and 1.5 to 2.0 cm liver tissue group (contained 2.0 cm). Comparisons of the Cox1 expressionand the liver fibrosis area between HAE lesion and adjacent liver tissues were performed. ResultsBoth expression of Cox1 and fibrosis area in HAE lesion were significantly higher than those in the adjacent liver tissues (P<0.000 1). However, there was no significant difference among the four kinds of adjacent liver tissues (P>0.05). There was a significant positive correlation between the expression of Cox1 and the fibrosis area both in HAE lesion and adjacent liver tissues (P<0.05). ConclusionsBoth the expression of Cox1 and degree of the liver fibrosis are significant higher in HAE lesion comparing to adjacent liver tissues, however, no significant difference is found among adjacent liver tissues. Consequently, a safe distance of 0.5 cm may be reasonable and feasible on the basis of the criteria for sample collection in the study.
ObjectiveTo summarize the research progress of risk factors related to early recurrence and late recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) after radical resection.MethodsReviewed and summarized recent literatures on factors related to early and late recurrence of HCC after radical resection.ResultsRadical resection was the most effective treatment for HCC, but the postoperative recurrence rate was high, which seriously affected the treatment effect. Current research divided the recurrence after radical resection of HCC into early recurrence (≤2 years) and late recurrence (>2 years). Early recurrence was considered to be mainly caused by intrahepatic metastasis (IM), which was related to the tumor itself, while late recurrence was mainly caused by multicentric occurrence (MO) and was related to background liver factors. Factors of the tumor itself, including tumor diameter and number, invasion of tumor large vessels and microvessels, anatomical and non-anatomical resection, tumor margin, residual liver ischemia (RLI), intermittent total entry hepatic blood flow interruption method (IPM), the expression level of circulating microRNA in serum and long-chain non-coding RNA, circulating tumor cells, and circulating tumor DNA were related to early recurrence; background liver factors, including liver cirrhosis, high viral load, and liver inflammatory activity, were associated with late recurrence.ConclusionsBoth the tumor factors associated with early recurrence and the background liver factors associated with late recurrence can affect the recurrence after radical resection of HCC.
ObjectiveTo explore the influencing factors of textbook outcomes (TO) after radical resection for hepatic alveolar echinococcosis (HAE). MethodsClinical data from 427 patients diagnosed with HAE at the Ganzi Branch of West China Hospital, Sichuan University, between 2015 and 2022, were retrospectively collected. The least absolute shrinkage and selection operator regression (LASSO) was first used to screen potential influencing factors for achieving TO (predictive model A). Univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis were then used to explore the influencing factors of TO (predictive model B). A Nomogram was further constructed and validated. ResultsA total of 427 patients who successfully underwent radical liver resection were included, of which 174 patients (40.7%) achieved TO. Compared to the non-TO group, patients in the TO group had higher proportions of WHO PNM stage of P 1+2 [62.6% (109/174) vs 42.3% (140/253)], N0 [77.0% (134/174) vs 63.6% (161/253)], lesion diameter≤10 cm [77.0% (134/174) vs 64.8% (164/253)], albumin-bilirubin index (ALBI) ≤–2.6 [70.1% (122/174) vs 59.3% (150/253)], and minor liver resection [71.8% (125/174) vs 50.2% (127/253)], higher prealbumin (181 mg/L vs 169 mg/L) and albumin (39 g/L vs 38 g/L) levels, shorter postoperative hospital stay (15 d vs 19 d), and lower hospitalization costs (51 727 RMB vs 62 715 RMB), P<0.05. LASSO regression analysis indicated that P stage, lesion diameter, ALBI, and liver resection method were potential influencing factors for achieving TO after HAE surgery (model A), P<0.05. The TO rate for P 1+2 stage was higher than that of P 3+4 stage, the TO rate for lesion diameter ≤ 10 cm was higher than that of lesion diameter >10 cm, the TO rate for ALBI ≤–2.6 was higher than that of ALBI >–2.6, and the TO rate for minor liver resection was higher than of major liver resection. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that P stage (OR=1.800, P=0.025) and liver resection method (OR=1.974, P<0.001) were influencing factors for achieving TO (model B). The TO rates for P1+2 stage and minor liver resection were higher. Predictive model A demonstrated higher accuracy and stability compared to predictive model B (AUC: 0.754 vs 0.712, C-index: 0.756 vs 0.707). ConclusionsAmong patients undergoing radical resection for HAE, less than half achieved TO. Striving to achieve TO can significantly shorten the length of hospital stay and effectively reduce medical costs. The TO predictive model based on P stage, lesion diameter, ALBI, and liver resection method is superior to the model based solely on P stage and liver resection method.
Objective To compare the clinical efficacy and safety of different surgical methods in the treatment of early-stage gallbladder carcinoma (GBC). Methods The clinical data of 43 patients with early-stage GBC who received treatment in Peking University People’s Hospital from Jan. 2010 to Dec. 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. According to the surgical methods, the patients were divided into laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC)+lymph node dissection (LND)+radiofrequency ablation (RA) group, open cholecystectomy (OC)+LND+RA group, and OC+LND+liver resection (LA) group. Operation duration, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative hospital stay, surgical complications, and long-term survival were compared among the 3 groups. Results All the 43 patients performed successful surgery without perioperative death. ① Operation duration and postoperative hospital stay. The differences of operation duration and postoperative hospital stay among the 3 groups were statistically significant (P<0.05). Compared with the LC+LND+RA group, operation duration and postoperative hospital stay of the OC+LND+RA group and the OC+LND+LR group were longer (P<0.017), but there was no statistically significant difference between the OC+LND+RA group and the OC+LND+LR group (P>0.017). ② Intraoperative blood loss. The difference of intraoperative blood loss among the 3 groups was statistically significant (P<0.001). Compared with the OC+LND+LR group, the intraoperative blood loss was lower in the LC+LND+RA group and the OC+LND+RA group (P<0.017), but there was no significant difference between the LC+LND+RA group and the OC+LND+RA group (P=0.172). ③ Postoperative complications. There was no significant difference in the incidence of postoperative complications among the 3 groups (P=0.326). ④ Long-term survival. There was no significant difference in survival curves among the 3 groups (P=0.057). Conclusions The method of cholecystectomy combined with LND and RA of gallbladder bed can achieve the radical effect on early-stage GBC (Tis–T2). Laparoscopic surgery, in particular, has shorter operation duration and faster recovery.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the value of modified traction method (dual-band composite suspension traction method) in laparoscopic radical resection for low rectal cancer. MethodsProspectively selected patients who underwent laparoscopic radical resection for low rectal cancer from March 2022 to March 2023 were selected as study subjects. They were randomly divided into a control group and an observation group using a random number table method. The observation group underwent the modified traction method for surgical field exposure, while the control group received the haemostatic clamp traction method. Both groups were followed up for 3 months postoperatively. The observation indexes were compared between the two groups: the surgeon’s satisfaction with the surgical field exposure, surgery-related indicators (operation time, intraoperative blood loss, positive rate of rectal air insufflation test), recovery of gastrointestinal function (time to bowel sound recovery, time to first oral intake), postoperative hospital stay, and the complications rate during the follow-up period. Results According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, 120 patients underwent laparoscopic radical resection for low rectal cancer were included, with 60 patients in each group. The satisfaction score regarding the intraoperative field exposure in the observation group was significantly higher than that in the control group [(8.42±0.96) points vs. (7.23±1.09) points, t=6.346, P<0.000], and the operation time was significantly shorter in the observation group [(166.20±19.06) min vs. (180.28±22.87) min, t=3.662, P<0.001]. No statistically significant differences were observed between the two groups in terms of intraoperative blood loss, postoperative gastrointestinal function recovery time, hospital stay, or complications rate (P>0.05). Conclusion The application of the dual-band composite suspension traction method in laparoscopic radical resection for low rectal cancer helps to improve surgical field exposure, facilitates the surgeon’s operation, thereby shortening the operation time, without increasing postoperative risks, demonstrating good safety.

Objective To investigate the strategy of treatment and prevention of hemorrhage after radical resection of hilar cholangiocarcinoma. Method Reviewing the related literatures at home and abroad in recent years, to summarize the progress of treatment and prevention of hemorrhage after radical resection of hilar cholangiocarcinoma. Results We should clear the postoperative bleeding time, extent, cause, and location, to help the clinician to choose the appropriate timing of intervention and treatment. The patients with early hemorrhage and mild degree hemorrhage could be treated conservatively. If patients with severe hemorrhage and hemodynamic disorders, surgical intervention must be decisive. Patients with late hemorrhage would have serious consequences, and these patients should receive interventional or surgical treatment as early as possible. Conclusions For patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma after radical resection, doctors need to do accurate preoperative evaluation, meticulous operation, and intensive management after operation, to reduce the incidence of hemorrhage after radical resection of hilar cholangiocarcinoma. If the postoperative hemorrhage occurs, the cause, location, time, and degree of hemorrhage should be clearly defined to facilitate clinicians to make rapid clinical decisions and to develop treatment programs.
Objective To study the effect of HBeAg on recurrence and survival after radical resection of small (≤3 cm) hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods Two hundreds and twenty-three HCC patients undergone radical resection from 1999 to 2000 were divided into two groups according to serum HBeAg status， HBeAg positive group (n=73) and HBeAg negative group (n=150). The patients’ factors, operative factors and tumorous facors were studied retrospectively between the two groups. And risk factors of overall survival (OS) and disease-free survival (DFS) were analyzed. Results There were no significant differences in operative and tumorous factors between the two groups, but the HBeAg positive group were younger with more severe cirrhosis (P=0.004, P=0.008). The OS and DFS were significantly different between the HBeAg positive group and HBeAg negative group. The 1-, 3- and 5-year OS were 91.5%, 76.8%, 60.1% and 95.2%, 85.3%, 73.2%, respectively (P=0.053)； and the 1-, 3- and 5-year DFS were 73.3%, 53.7%, 40.3% and 86.6%, 65.5%, 54.5%, respectively (P=0.002). Multivariate analysis revealed that age ＞50 years, HBeAg positive and macronodular cirrhosis were significantly related to OS, and HBeAg positive, multiple tumor nodulars were significantly related to DFS. Positive serum HBeAg status was an independent risk factor for both OS and DFS. Conclusion Positive serum HBeAg is closely related to early recurrence and survival after radical resection of patients with small HCC.
