Objective To evaluate the linkage between the proxmal as well as long term outcome and choice of therapeutical modality for benign hilar stricture of bile duct prospectively. Methods 25 patients have been catergorized into 4 groups according to different pathogen and the proxmal as well as long term outcome after pathogen based management have been studied prospectively. Results The hepatic portal cholangio-jejunostomy applied for iatrogenic hilar stricture of bile duct has been proved to be effective and the incidence of refulux cholangitis is only 10%(1/10). Hepatic hilar plasty procedures keep the physiological entitity of bile duct and the vital, sufficient autologous repair materials as well as reliable operation design are needed. Resection of atrophic right liver lobe bearing hepatolithiasis combined hepatic hilar plasty has reached both elimination of liver focus and maintaining the physiological entitity of bile duct. The ballon dilation for mild ring-like hilar stricture of bile duct is valide but not for hilar tubular stricture of secondary sclerosing cholangitis.Conclusion The strategy of individualized management (pathogen based management) for benign hilar stricture of bile duct has proved to be reliable and effective.
ObjectiveTo compare the effectiveness of antecolic duodenojejunostomy (ADJ) and retrocolic duodenojejunostomy (RDJ) after pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy (PPPD). MethodsRandomized controlled trials (RCTs) of ADJ versus RDJ after PPPD were searched in Cochrane Library, PubMed database, Embase database, Web of Science, Chinese biomedicine database, CNKI database, VIP database, and Wanfang database from inception to April 2014, as well as Google. After quality assessment of RCTs according to the Cochrane Handbook for Systematic Reviews of Interventions Version, Meta analysis was performed by RevMan 5.1 software. ResultsFour RCTs of 462 patients in total were included in this Meta-analysis. The results of Meta-analysis showed that, there were no significant differences in the operation time (MD=14.02, 95% CI:-41.42-69.46, P=0.62), incidence of postoperative complications (RR=1.09, 95% CI:0.81-1.48, P=0.56), incidence of delayed gastric emptying (RR=0.63, 95% CI:0.31-1.28, P=0.20), incidence of pancreatic fistula (RR=1.13, 95% CI:0.72-1.75, P=0.60), incidence of abdominal abscess (RR=0.92, 95% CI:0.54-1.58, P=0.77), and mortality (RR=0.61, 95% CI:0.24-1.60, P=0.32) between ADJ group and RDJ group. ConclusionsThe effectiveness of ADJ is similar with RDJ after PPPD, so the reconstruction way after PPPD can be routed according to the surgeon's preference.
Objective To explore the diagnostic and treating scheme of primary sclerotic cholangitis. Methods 24 cases of primary sclerotic cholangitis identified by radiological and pathological examinations from 1972 to 1998 were analysed retrospectively. According to Thompson, 1 case was classified as type Ⅰ, 5 cases were type Ⅱ, 10 cases were type Ⅲ and 8 cases were type Ⅳ. The operation were as follows,resection of gallbladder plus T tube drainage in 8 cases, plus Roux-en-Y anastomosis of bile duct and jejunum in 12 cases, plus U tube stent and drainage in 4 cases. Results The total mortality rate was 25% (6/24) in 2～18 years follow-up after operation. Conclusion Early diagnosis and operation may resolve the drainage of bile into the jejunum. When serious lesions and worse liver functions exist, liver transplantation should be considered.
ObjectiveTo compare and analyze the short-term efficacy of different surgical methods for Siewert type Ⅰ and type Ⅱ esophagogastric junction carcinoma.MethodsWe selected 82 patients who accepted radical resection of esophagogastric junction carcinoma from March 2015 to March 2018 in our department, including 53 males and 29 females, aged 48-72 (61±6) years. The patients were divided into four groups according to the surgical method: a left thoracotomy group (n=14), a laparoscopic left small thoracotomy group (n=33), a thoracoscopic Ivor-Lewis group (n=17), and a thoracoscopic McKeown group (n=18). Their clinical characteristics, operative situations, postoperative complications and survival rate were analyzed.ResultsAmong the four groups, the left thoracotomy group cost the shortest operation time, followed by laparoscopic left small thoracotomy group, thoracoscopic McKeown group and thoracoscopic Ivor-Lewis group. The thoracoscopic McKeown group/laparoscopic left small thoracotomy group had the least bleeding. The fewest lymph nodes were dissected in the left thoracotomy group and the most in the thoracoscopic??????? McKeown group. The laparoscopic left small thoracotomy group had the lowest total complication rate and the incidence of pneumonia and arrhythmia among the four groups (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in survival rate among the four groups (P>0.05).ConclusionFor Siewert type Ⅰ and type Ⅱ esophagogastric junction carcinoma, thoracoscopy combined with laparoscopic radical resection is safe and reliable. Laparoscopic left small thoracotomy has the advantages of minimal invasiveness and complete lymph node dissection, especially for the patients with poor cardiopulmonary function, which will significantly shorten operation time and reduce postoperative complications, so it is worth to be popularized.
Objective To explore the clinical value of early enteral nutrition in severe acute pancreatitis （SAP） by percutaneous endoscopic gastrostomy/jejunostomy （PEG/J）.Methods Treatment condition of nighty patients with SAP were retrospectively analysed.The 90 patients were collected peripheral venous blood respectively on 1，?12，?and 18 d after admission to hospital.Forty-five of them were in PEG/J group，?the others were in control group. Serum IL-6，TNF-α and endotoxin were detected by enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay （ELISA），CD4 /CD8 was determinated by indirect immunofluorescence staining method （FITC-labeled）.Results On 12 d and 18 d，the levels of serum IL-6，?TNF-α，?and endotoxin in PEG/J group were lower than those in control group （P＜0.01）.The CD4 /CD8 was significantly higher than that in control group （P＜0.01）.In control group，?2 cases complicated upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage，4 cases complicated pancreatic pseudocysts，?and 2 cases complicated double infection，?the temperature became normal after about 13.5 d.In PEG/J group，?there were not upper gastrointestinal haemorrhage and double infection，but 2 cases also complicated pancreatic pseudocysts，?the temperature became normal after about 10.5 d.Conclusion The clinical effectiveness of early enteral nutrition in SAP by PEG/J is satisfactory.
Objective To investigate the risk factors of infection after radiofrequency ablation in patients with liver metastases after choledochojejunostomy. Methods The clinical data of patients with liver metastases treated by radiofrequency ablation in our hospital from January 2010 to April 2022 were collected retrospectively and analyzed by univariate and multivariate logistic regression analysis. Results A total of 57 patients were included in the study, and the total number of postoperative infections was 19 (33.33%). Univariate logistic regression analysis showed that the tumor location, maximum tumor diameter, number of tumors, ablation times, and ablation duration were related to the occurrence of infection after radiofrequency ablation (P<0.01). The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the tumor location [OR=6.45, 95%CI (1.11, 37.35), P=0.037] and ablation duration [OR=1.49, 95%CI (1.16, 1.91), P=0.002] were independent risk factors for infection after radiofrequency ablation in patients with choledocho-jejunostomy. Conclusions For patients with metastatic liver cancer with a history of choledochojejunostomy, the tumor location and the duration of ablation are closely related to postoperative infection. We should strengthen the indivi-dualized management of such patients during and after operation should be strengthened to promote disease recovery.
ObjectiveTo compare the clinical outcomes of laparoscopic magnetic compression cholangiojejunostomy (LMCCJ) with laparoscopic hand-sutured cholangiojejunostomy (LHSCJ). MethodsA retrospective case-control study was performed. From January 2019 to May 2022, 37 patients, who underwent laparoscopic treatment in this hospital, were enrolled in this study. There were 16 cases in the LMCCJ group and 21 cases in the LHSCJ group. The demographic information, procedure time to complete bilioenteric reconstruction, postoperative hospital stay, operative complications, magnets expulsion time, and follow-up results were collected and analyzed. ResultsThere were no statistical differences in the baseline data such as the gender, age, composition of primary diseases, preoperative total bilirubin, and preoperative common bile duct diameter between the two groups (P＞0.05). The outer diameter of the magnets was (10.50±0.97) mm, the expulsion time of the magnets was (49.69±37.58) d, and the expulsion rate of the magnets was 100% (16/16). There was no intestinal obstruction or gastrointestinal perforation caused by the retention of the magnets. The procedure time to complete bilioenteric reconstruction in the LMCCJ group was statistically shorter than that in the LHSCJ group [(11.31±3.40) min vs. (24.81±3.40) min, t=11.96, P＜0.01]. There was no statistical difference in the total bilirubin level at the first week after surgery between the two groups (U=142.0, P=0.80). The postoperative hospital stay in the LMCCJ group was longer than that in the LHSCJ group [(28.31±14.11) d vs. (16.19±7.56) d, t=3.36, P＜0.01]. During the perioperative period, there was no bleeding or biliary infection in the two groups, but one case of biliary leak in the LHSCJ group. In all 37 patients were followed-up for (548.8±259.2) d. During the follow-up period, the incidence rates of biliary intestinal anastomosis stenosis, tumor recurrence, and mortality had no statistical differences between the two groups (P＞0.05). ConclusionFrom the results of comparative analysis in this study, it can be concluded that LMCCJ is not only safe equally, but also easier and less time-consuming as compared with LHSCJ.
ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical effect of end-to-side binding pancreaticojejunostomy.MethodsFrom March 2009 to December 2019 , 70 patients (pancreatic head cancer in 16 cases, duodenal papillary cancer in 27 cases, bile duct cancer in 8 cases, periampullary cancer in 2 cases, gallbladder cancer invading the pancreatic head in 1 case, intraductal papillary myxoma of pancreas in 6 cases, and mass-type chronic pancreatitis in 10 cases) were performed with end-to-side binding pancreaticojejunostomy were retrospectively analyzed, including large pancreas remnant (n=4). The main procedures included isolation of the pancreatic remnant, incising the jejunal wall and preplacing with seromuscular purse string suture around the incision, performing end-to side binding pancreaticojejunostomy.ResultsThe procedures were successful in all 70 patients. Postoperative complications included pancreatic fistula (n=3, 4.3%), of three patients cured with reoperation, jejunal loop decompression tube was not placed in 2 patients, and 1 patient had pancreatic fistula and bleeding on the eighth day after operation. One out of 3 patients developing abdominal hemorrhage which reoperation died of acute respiratory distress syndrome, 1 patient was cured with the vascular interventional hemostasis. Gastrointestinal anastomotic bleeding (n=1) and adhesive intestinal obstruction (n=1) were cured with reoperation, biliary leakage (n=1) was cured with conservative treatment.ConclusionEnd-to-side binding pancreaticojejunostomy is simple, safe and reliable.
Objective To evaluate the application of a surgical method in pancreaticoduodenectomy. Methods All the 211 cases of purse-string invaginated pancreaticojejunostomy performed from Dec.1985 to Dec.2007 were reviewed. Firstly, an accordant plastic tube was put and fastened in main pancreatic duct, and pancreas was ligated at 2-3 cm apart from the pancreatic stump to let secretin flow far away. Furthermore, invaginated pancreaticojejunostomy was performed to get closer between pancreas and jejunum. Results Pancreatic fistula and perioperative death didn’t occur among these 211 cases. The complications included 2 cases of incision dehiscence, 4 cases of biliary fistula and 1 case of scission of superior mesentric artery. Conclusion Purse-string invaginated double-layer anastomosis of pancreaticojejunal would be feasible for pancreaticoduodenectomy preventing pancreatic fistula.
Objective To investigate the effect of the position of pancreatic duct in pancreatic section on postoperative pancreatic fistula. Methods The clinical data of patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy admitted to the pancreatic surgery department of our hospital from September 2018 to August 2020 were retrospectively collected. The consistency between intraoperative pancreatic section data and preoperative CT cross-sectional images of pancreatic duct was compared, and the occurrence of postoperative pancreatic fistula was analyzed by univariate analysis and multivariate logistic regression model analysis, to determine whether the position of pancreatic duct on pancreatic section during pancreaticojejunostomy had an impact on the occurrence of postoperative pancreatic fistula. Results A total of 373 patients were included in this study. In 44 cases, the ratio of the thickness of the short distance from the center of the pancreatic duct to the edge of the pancreas at the pancreatic section was 0.41±0.09, and the imaging measurement value was 0.40±0.10. The interclass correlation coefficient detection value of the two measurement methods was 0.916 (>0.75), P<0.001, this had high consistency. Patients had a high BMI [OR=1.276, 95%CI (1.154, 1.411), P<0.000 1] and soft pancreatic texture [OR=2.771, 95%CI (1.558, 4.927), P=0.001] were independent risk factors for postoperative pancreatic fistula, while the risk of postoperative pancreatic fistula decreased with the increased proportion of pancreatic duct thickness from center to edge [OR=0.875, 95%CI (0.840, 0.911), P<0.000 1]. Conclusions Patients with high BMI and soft pancreas are independent risk factors for postoperative pancreatic fistula, and the risk of postoperative pancreatic fistula is reduced when the center of pancreatic duct is far from the edge of pancreas. The ratio of short distance from the center of pancreatic duct to the edge of pancreas to the total thickness of pancreas measured by preoperative imaging can be used to evaluate the risk of postoperative pancreatic fistula.
