RESUMO

Background: Indocyanine green (ICG) allows for the real-time visualization of lymphatic drainage and provides favorable performance for sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapping. However, the limited ability of tissue penetration of the near-infrared fluorescence of ICG may lead to the failure of lymph node detection in the traditional open approach of sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) for breast cancer, especially in overweight or obese patients. To accurately and quickly detect SLNs, we applied fluorescence endoscopy with a dual-tracer method using ICG and methylene blue dye (MBD) in SLNB for breast cancer. We conducted this study to assess the feasibility and application value of this method in minimally invasive surgery. Methods: A total of 117 patients who received dual-tracer injection of ICG and MBD prior to endoscopic SLNB from November 2020 to September 2021 were examined in this study. The number of SLNs identified, the SLN identification rate, the time to identify the first SLN, the procedure duration, and the postoperative morbidity were analyzed. Results: Biopsied SLNs could be identified in 116 patients (99.15%) with an average number of 5.12±1.87 per patient. Blue-stained SLNs were found in 99 patients (84.62%) and fluorescent SLNs in 112 patients (95.73%). A total of 34 patients (29.06%) had positive SLNs. In 6 cases (5.13%), the positive SLNs were only stained with ICG fluorescence. In 1 case (0.85%), the positive SLNs were only blue-stained with no fluorescence staining. The mean durations for the identification of the first SLN and endoscopic SLNB were 7.14±6.31 and 37.75±16.94 min, respectively. Upper-limb lymphoedema was observed 5 cases (4.27%) during a median follow-up period of 10 months. Conclusions: The fluorescence endoscopy method assisted by dual tracer facilitates SLN detection with a comparatively short procedure duration and low complication rate. This approach could serve as a new method for SLNB for patients with breast cancer.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Accurately assessing axillary lymph node (ALN) status in breast cancer is vital for clinical decision making and prognosis. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the predictive value of sentinel lymph node (SLN) mapped by multidetector-row computed tomography lymphography (MDCT-LG) for ALN metastasis in breast cancer patients. METHODS: 112 patients with breast cancer who underwent preoperative MDCT-LG examination were included in the study. Long-axis diameter, short-axis diameter, ratio of long-/short-axis and cortical thickness were measured. Logistic regression analysis was performed to evaluate independent predictors associated with ALN metastasis. The prediction of ALN metastasis was determined with related variables of SLN using receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis. RESULTS: Among the 112 cases, 35 (30.8%) cases had ALN metastasis. The cortical thickness in metastatic ALN group was significantly thicker than that in non-metastatic ALN group (4.0 ± 1.2 mm vs. 2.4 ± 0.7 mm, P < 0.001). Multi-logistic regression analysis indicated that cortical thickness of > 3.3 mm (OR 24.53, 95% CI 6.58-91.48, P < 0.001) had higher risk for ALN metastasis. The best sensitivity, specificity, negative predictive value(NPV) and AUC of MDCT-LG for ALN metastasis prediction based on the single variable of cortical thickness were 76.2%, 88.5%, 90.2% and 0.872 (95% CI 0.773-0.939, P < 0.001), respectively. CONCLUSION: ALN status can be predicted using the imaging features of SLN which was mapped on MDCT-LG in breast cancer patients. Besides, it may be helpful to select true negative lymph nodes in patients with early breast cancer, and SLN biopsy can be avoided in clinically and radiographically negative axilla.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: We aimed to determine the efficacy and safety of multiple doses of intravenous tranexamic acid (IV-TXA) on perioperative blood loss in patients with rheumatoid arthritis (RA) who had undergone primary unilateral total knee arthroplasty (TKA). METHODS: For this single-center, single-blind randomized controlled clinical trial, 10 male and 87 female participants with RA, aged 50-75 years, who underwent unilateral primary TKA were recruited. The patients received one dose of 1 g IV-TXA 10 min before skin incision, followed by articular injection of 1.5 g tranexamic acid after cavity suture during the surgery. The patients were randomly assigned (1:1) into two groups and received an additional single dose of IV-TXA (1 g) for 3 h (group A) or three doses of IV-TXA (1 g) for 3, 6, and 12 h (group B) postoperatively. Primary outcomes were total blood loss (TBL), hidden blood loss (HBL), and maximum hemoglobin (Hb) level decrease. Secondary outcomes were transfusion rate and D-dimer levels. All parameters were measured postoperatively during inpatient hospital stay. RESULTS: The mean TBL, HBL, and maximum Hb level decrease in group B (506.1 ± 227.0 mL, 471.6 ± 224.0 mL, and 17.5 ± 7.7 g/L, respectively) were significantly lower than those in group A (608.8 ± 244.8 mL, P = 0.035; 574.0 ± 242.3 mL, P = 0.033; and 23.42 ± 9.2 g/L, P = 0.001, respectively). No episode of transfusion occurred. The D-dimer level was lower in group B than in group A on postoperative day 1 (P <  0.001), and the incidence of thromboembolic events was similar between the groups (P > 0.05). CONCLUSION: In patients with RA, three doses of postoperative IV-TXA further facilitated HBL and Hb level decrease without increasing the incidence of adverse events in a short period after TKA. TRIAL REGISTRATION: The trial was registered in the Chinese Clinical Trial Registry ( ChiCTR1900025013 ).

RESUMO

OBJECTIVE: To identify the efficacy and safety of multiple doses of intravenous tranexamic acid (IV-TXA) following primary total knee arthroplasty (TKA) with a tourniquet. METHODS: This is a single-blind randomized controlled study that recruited osteoarthritis patients who had undergone primary unilateral TKA from May 2019 to May 2020 at our medical center. A total of 300 patients were randomly divided into three groups to receive: one dose (1 g) of IV-TXA before skin incision combined with one dose (1.5 g) of intra-articular tranexamic acid(IA-TXA) followed by a single dose of IV-TXA (1 g) for 3 h (group A); two doses of IV-TXA (1 g) for 3 and 6 h (group B); or three doses of IV-TXA (1 g) for 3, 6, and 12 h (group C) postoperatively. TKA with a tourniquet was performed by the same surgical team. The primary outcomes were total blood cell loss (TBL), hidden blood loss (HBL), maximum hemoglobin (Hb) drop, and transfusion rate. Secondary outcomes were levels of C-reactive protein (CRP) and D-dimer, and the incidence of postoperative complications. One-way analysis of variance, subgroup analysis, and multivariate correlation analysis were used to calculate the differences among the three groups. RESULTS: The study included 56 male and 244 female patients aged 60-80 years. The mean TBL, the mean HBL, and the maximum Hb drop in group C (471.2 ± 190.6 mL, 428.4 ± 190.3 mL, and 21.2 ± 3.8 g/L, respectively) were significantly lower than those in groups B (563.4 ± 224.6 mL, P = 0.030; 519.9 ± 226.4 mL, P = 0.033; and 23.2 ± 4.1 g/L, P = 0.001, respectively), and A (651.6 ± 254.1 mL, P < 0.001; 607.1 ± 254.3 mL, P < 0.001; and 25.1 ± 4.3 g/L, P < 0.001, respectively). No transfusions were required. The postoperative acute inflammatory reaction was less problematic for patients in Group C, and the incidence of thromboembolic events was similar among the groups (P > 0.05). In addition, there were positive correlations between the HBL and the tourniquet inflation time (r = 0.844, P < 0.001). Similarly, the level of CRP on POD1 (r = 0.393, P < 0.001) and POD3 (r = 0.149, P = 0.010), and the level of D-dimer on POD1 (r = 0.382, P < 0.001) were positively correlated with the HBL. CONCLUSION: Three doses of postoperative IV-TXA decreased blood loss and diminished the postoperative inflammatory and fibrinolytic response more than a single dose or two doses in elderly patients following TKA without increasing the incidence of adverse events.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a gold standard for patients with terminal term gonarthrosis for reducing pain, correcting deformities, and regaining stability. However, post-TKA muscle strength recovery is often difficult. Although electroacupuncture (EA) enhances lower extremity muscle strength of the lower extremity, there is limited evidence regarding its effect on lower extremity muscle strength in post-TKA patients. Consequently, this trial intends to evaluate the efficacy of post-TKA EA on the recovery of lower extremity muscle strength, specifically, during the early post-TKA period. METHODS/DESIGN: This is a double-blinded, randomized, and controlled trial. It will be conducted between August 2020 and December 2020. Ninety-four participants with KOA who have undergone unilateral TKA will be randomized into a treatment (EA) group and a control (sham EA) group. The former and latter groups will receive EA and sham EA, respectively, at ST37, ST36, SP10, and SP9 acupoints. The participants will undergo ten treatment sessions over 2 weeks (5 sessions per week). The primary outcomes will include changes in muscle strength and the Hospital for Special Surgery score at the second week from baseline (pre-op 1 day or POD 3). The secondary outcomes will include a 4-m walk test, numerical rating scale score, the Hamilton Anxiety Scale score, and additional analgesia use. Additional outcomes will include the incidence of analgesia-related side effects and the participant satisfaction rate. Participant blinding will also be assessed where they will be asked to guess whether they received EA after the latest intervention. Adverse EA events will be documented and assessed throughout the trial. DISCUSSION: EA is helpful for post-TKA recovery and enhancement of lower limb muscle strength. TRIAL REGISTRATION: Chinese Clinical Trial Registry ChiCTR1900027806 . Registered on 29 November 2019.
