ObjectiveTo summarize the prevention and treatment strategies and their effects on lymphatic leakage following transoral endoscopic thyroid cancer lateral neck lymph node dissection. MethodsA retrospective review was conducted, we collected clinical data from 47 patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma who underwent transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy and lateral neck lymph node dissection at our hospital from January 2021 to May 2023. A stepwise sequential treatment plan was adopted for patients with postoperative lymphatic leakage: low-fat, low-protein diet, continuous strong negative pressure suction, subcutaneous injection of Group A streptococcus in the surgical cavity, and ligation of the thoracic duct or lymphatic vessels through a small incision. The effectiveness of the sequential treatment plan was summarized. ResultsOut of the 47 patients, lymphatic leakage occurred in 5 cases postoperatively. Patient No.1 was cured of lymphatic leakage after sequential treatments including pectoralis major muscle flap occlusion of the jugular venous angle, low-fat, low-protein diet, continuous strong negative pressure suction postoperatively, subcutaneous injection of Group A streptococcus in the surgical cavity, and finally ligation of the thoracic duct or lymphatic vessels through a small incision. Patient No.20 was conservatively cured of lymphatic leakage with an initial surgical procedure involving pectoralis major muscle flap occlusion of the jugular venous angle, low-fat, low-protein diet, continuous strong negative pressure suction postoperatively, and subcutaneous injection of Group A streptococcus in the surgical cavity. Patient No.28 recovered after only pectoralis major muscle flap occlusion of the jugular venous angle, low-fat, low-protein diet and continuous strong negative pressure suction postoperatively. Treatment process of patient No.30 was the same as Patient No.1, Patient No.36 was the same as Patient No.20. Through the stepwise sequential treatment measures, all 5 patients successfully recovered from lymphatic leakage; the postoperative hospital stay ranged from 3 to 17 days, with an average of 8.6 days. ConclusionsThe stepwise sequential treatment plan used in this study can effectively prevent and treat lymphatic leakage after transoral endoscopic thyroid cancer lateral neck lymph node dissection. Given the small sample size of this study, we believe that it is necessary to conduct long-term studies to confirm the durability and stability of these measures.
目的 探討胰性腦病的可能的發病機制、發病情況及防治措施.方法 計算機檢索中文科技期刊全文數據庫(1989~2004),收集有關胰性腦病的臨床研究,并進行統計分析.結果 共納入43篇文獻,435例患者.胰性腦病在重癥急性胰腺炎中的發病率遠高于輕癥急性胰腺炎;發病年齡趨向中、老年;病死率為43.67%;病因仍以膽系疾病為主;伴發低氧的幾率不高于未并發胰性腦病患者.結論 胰性腦病的發生可能是多因素共同作用的結果,仍需進一步探討其發病機制.血清髓鞘堿性蛋白有望成為有價值的診斷指標.防治以治療原發病急性胰腺炎為主,重在預防.胰酶抑制劑和早期營養支持有一定預防作用.
In post-coronavirus disease 2019 era, people’s style of work and life have undergone major changes. The sedentary style of work and life, such as long-time office work, online meetings, home eating, online social interactions, and reduced range of activities, affect people’s physical and mental health. Neck and shoulder pain is one of the common symptoms. By combining the clinical practice experience of orthopedic medical experts in West China Hospital of Sichuan University, and reviewing a large number of literatures, this article summarized the definition, incidence, hazards, causes, evaluation and prevention of neck and shoulder pain in post-coronavirus disease 2019 era. It aimed to provide experience for the prevention and treatment of neck and shoulder pain in post-coronavirus disease 2019 era.
ObjectiveTo investigate the reason, prevention, and treatment measures of gastrointestinal unplanned reoperation. MethodsClinical data of 21 patients who carried out gastrointestinal unplanned reoperation for various reasons from Jun. 2012 to Jun. 2013 in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. ResultsTwenty-one of 2 492 patients with gastrointestinal tract surgery carried out gastrointestinal unplanned reoperation, and the incidence of reoperation was 0.8%. The causes of reoperation were intra-abdominal hemorrhage in 10 cases, gastrointestinal fistula in 7 cases, inflammatory intestinal obstruction with peritonitis in 1 case, and incision dehiscence in 3 cases. After undergoing suture hemostasis, colostomy, anastomotic fistula repair, debridement, and suture,20 cases were cured or improved, and 1 case died. The median of hospitalization expense was 76 000 yuan(46 000-116 000 yuan), and the median of hospital stay was 25-day(16-49 days). ConclusionsGastrointestinal unplanned reoperation can cause more serious economic and emotional burden to patients, standardizing surgical procedure and enhancing perioperative monitoring can reduce the incidence of unplanned reoperation. In addition, grasp legitimately the indications of reoperation, implement timely, and effective reoperation can avoid further deterioration of the disease.
