Objective:To investigate the discomfort of chest wall approach area in patients undergoing endoscopic thyroidectomy by a gasless unilateral axillary approach (GUA), and to analyze its influencing factors. To provide a basis for the development of targeted improvement measures.Methods:A total of 153 patients with GUA from May. 2023 to Aug. 2023 in the Department of Thyroid Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University were selected as the study subjects. The general information questionnaire was collected one day before operation, the pain scales were assessed one day and three days after operation, and the pain and numbness scales were assessed one month after operation. The t test or χ2 test was used for comparison of baseline data between groups according to different types of variables. The patients were divided into two groups: less than moderate pain group (two postoperative average VAS scores<4) and more than moderate pain group (two postoperative average VAS scores ≥4). Mild numbness group (postoperative VAS score<4) ; Moderate and severe numbness group (postoperative VAS score ≥4). Multivariate binary Logistic regression was performed with pain discomfort and numbness discomfort as dependent variables to find possible influencing factors. Results:A total of 153 valid questionnaires were collected. There were 125 patients in the moderate pain group; There were 28 patients in the moderate and above pain group. There were 94 patients in the mild numbness group. There were 59 patients in the moderate to severe numbness group. Multivariate binary Logistic regression results showed that, exercise habits ( OR=0.07 95% CI=0.006, 0.409), operation duration ( OR=1.026 95% CI=1.001, 1.054), total drainage volume ( OR=1.122 95% CI=1.07, P<0.05), 1.198), and drainage tube indwelling time ( OR=0.012 95% CI=0.0, 0.187) had an impact on the discomfort of the chest wall approach area, and the difference was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Gender, BMI, marital status, education, occupation, handed-side surgery, handed-side axillary surgery, smokess and alcohol history, intraoperative blood loss, and length of hospital stay had no effect on the discomfort of chest wall approach area, and the difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05) . Conclusion:Exercise habits, operation duration, total drainage volume, and drainage duration are independent predictors of discomfort in GUA patients.

@#This is a case of a 54-year-old, perimenopausal, Asian, woman, who presented with an enlarging left breast mass associated with whitish to bloody nipple discharge. A core needle biopsy, done in another institution, showed histologic findings of a mucinous carcinoma with triple negative “basal-like” biomarker status (ER, PR, HER2/neu). Six cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy were given after which the subsequent modified radical mastectomy revealed a centrally located, 10.0 cm, well-circumscribed, nodular, ovoid mass on gross examination. Microscopic findings showed tall columnar cells in stratification, tufts and papillary formations, with surrounding abundant extracellular mucin. The individual tumor cells exhibit enlarged, hyperchromatic, basally located nuclei with prominent nucleoli, abundant amphophilic and occasionally oncocytic cytoplasm which contains intracytoplasmic mucin. Based on the histologic features, “basal-like” biomarker expression, and additional immunohistochemical studies (positive CK7, negative CK20 and CDX2), this case demonstrates a pure mucinous cystadenocarcinoma of the breast. In addition to the rare histologic type, this case is exceptional since, despite multiple cycles of neoadjuvant chemotherapy, presence of extensive lymphovascular invasion and axillary lymph node involvement with extranodal extension remain evident.

SUMMARY: The teres minor is one of the rotator cuff muscles that comprise the superior margin of the quadrangular space. Quadrangular space syndrome (QSS) refers to the entrapment or compression of the axillary nerve and the posterior humeral circumflex artery in the quadrangular space, often caused by injuries, dislocation of the shoulder joint, etc. Patients who fail the primary conservative treatments and have persistent symptoms and no pain relief for at least six months would be considered for surgical interventions for QSS. This cadaveric study of 17 cadavers (males: 9 and females: 8) was conducted in the Gross Anatomy Laboratory at the Department of Anatomy, Faculty of Medicine Siriraj Hospital, Mahidol University. The cadavers were preserved in a 10 % formaldehyde solution and obtained ethical approval by the ethical commission of the Siriraj Institutional Review Board. The morphology of the teres minor muscle-tendon junction, the bifurcation type of the axillary nerve, and the length and number of the terminal branches of the nerve to the teres minor were documented. Specimens with quadrangular space contents and surrounding muscles that had been destroyed were excluded from the study. The results showed that 47.06 % of the specimens had type A bifurcation, 47.06 % had type B bifurcation, and the remaining 5.88 % had type C bifurcation. It was observed that 58.82 % had nonclassic muscle-tendon morphology, while 41.18 % were classic. The average length of the terminal branches of the nerve to the teres minor in males was 1.13 cm, with the majority having two branches. For females, many showed one terminal branch with an average length of 0.97 cm. Understanding the differences in anatomical variations can allow for a personalized treatment plan prior to quadrangular space syndrome surgical procedures and improve the recovery of postsurgical interventions for patients.
El músculo redondo menor es uno de los músculos del manguito rotador que comprende el margen superior del espacio cuadrangular. El síndrome del espacio cuadrangular (QSS) se refiere al atrapamiento o compresión del nervio axilar y la arteria circunfleja humeral posterior en el espacio cuadrangular, a menudo causado por lesiones, dislocación de la articulación humeral, entre otros. En los pacientes en los que fracasan los tratamientos conservadores primarios y presentan síntomas persistentes y ningún alivio del dolor durante al menos seis meses se considerarían para intervenciones quirúrgicas para QSS. Este estudio cadavérico de 17 cadáveres (hombres: 9 y mujeres: 8) se llevó a cabo en el Laboratorio de Anatomía Macroscópica del Departamento de Anatomía de la Facultad de Medicina del Hospital Siriraj de la Universidad Mahidol. Los cadáveres se conservaron en una solución de formaldehído al 10 % y obtuvieron la aprobación ética de la comisión ética de la Junta de Revisión Institucional de Siriraj. Se documentó la morfología de la unión músculo-tendón del músculo redondo menor, el tipo de bifurcación del nervio axilar y la longitud y el número de las ramas terminales del nervio para el músculo redondo menor. Se excluyeron del estudio los especímenes con contenido de espacios cuadrangulares y músculos circundantes que habían sido destruidos. Los resultados mostraron que el 47,06 % de los especímenes presentó bifurcación tipo A, el 47,06 % una bifurcación tipo B y el 5,88 % restante una bifurcación tipo C. Se observó que el 58,82 % presentaba una morfología músculo-tendinosa no clásica, mientras que el 41,18 % era clásica. La longitud pmedia de los ramos terminales del nervio hasta el músculo redondo menor en los hombres era de 1,13 cm, y la mayoría tenía dos ramos. En el caso de las mujeres, mostraron un ramo terminal con una longitud promedio de 0,97 cm. Comprender las diferencias en las variaciones anatómicas puede permitir un plan de tratamiento personalizado antes de los procedimientos quirúrgicos del síndrome del espacio cuadrangular y mejorar la recupe- ración de las intervenciones posquirúrgicas de los pacientes.

Background: Seroma formation after mastectomy with axillary dissection is a major source of morbidity and results in a significant delay in starting the adjuvant treatment. Many different strategies, including the usage of steroids, have been tried to reduce the incidence of seroma with varying outcomes. This study aimed to assess the effect of a single dose of intracavitary methylprednisolone (MP) on seroma formation in patients undergoing total mastectomy with axillary lymph node dissection (ALND). Methods: A randomized controlled trial was conducted at our institute, from January 2018 till June 2019. In the intervention group of 36 patients, 80 mg of MP solution was injected into the wound on post operative day 1. The drain was clamped for 8 hours and then released. In the control group of 36 patients, saline was administered and the drain output was compared between the groups. Results: The mean drain volume in the intervention group was 409.08 mL and in the control group it was 566.97 mL (P < 0.005). The mean drain removal time was 7.86 days and 10.33 days in the intervention and control group, respectively (P < 0.0004). Conclusion: A single dose of intracavitary MP significantly reduced seroma formation and facilitated early removal of drain in patients undergoing total mastectomy with ALND.

ABSTRACT Introduction: The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of innominate artery cannulation strategy with side-graft technique in proximal aortic pathologies. Methods: A total of 70 patients underwent innominate artery cannulation with a side graft for surgery on the proximal aorta from 2012 to 2020. There were 46 men and 24 women with an average age of 56±13 years. The indications for surgery were type A aortic dissection in 17 patients (24.3%), aortic aneurysm in 52 patients (74.3%), and ascending aorta pseudoaneurysm in one patient (1.4%). The innominate artery was free of disease in all patients. Hypothermic circulatory arrest with antegrade cerebral perfusion was utilized in 60 patients (85.7%). Three patients had previous sternotomy (4.2%). The most common surgical procedure was ascending aorta with hemiarch replacement in 34 patients (48.5%). Results: The mean cardiac ischemia and cardiopulmonary bypass times were 116+46 minutes and 164+56 minutes, respectively. Mean antegrade cerebral perfusion time was 27+14 minutes. The patients were cooled between 22°C and 30°C during surgery. Thirty-day mortality rate was 7.1% (five patients). One patient (1.4%) had stroke, one patient (1.4%) had temporary neurologic deficit, and eight patients (11.4%) had confusion and agitation that resolved completely in all cases. There was no local complication or arterial injury. Conclusion: Cannulation of the innominate artery with side graft is safe and effective for both cardiopulmonary bypass and antegrade cerebral perfusion. This technique provides satisfactory neurologic outcomes for proximal aortic surgery.

Abstract Objective: This study aimed to perform a meta-analysis to investigate the diagnostic safety and accuracy of Ultrasound-Guided Core Needle Biopsy (US-CNB) Axillary Lymph Nodes (ALNs) region in patients with Breast Cancer (BC). Methods: The authors searched the electronic databases PubMed, Scopus, Embase, and Web of Science for clinical trials about US-CNB for the detection of ALNs in breast cancer patients. The authors extracted and pooled raw data from the included studies and performed statistical analyses using Meta-DiSc 1.4 and Review Manager 5.3 software. A random effects model was used to calculate the data. At the same time, data from the Ultrasound-guided Fine-Needle Aspiration (US-FNA) were introduced for comparison with the US-CNB. In addition, the subgroup was performed to explore the causes of heterogeneity. (PROSPERO ID: CRD42022369491). Results: In total, 18 articles with 2521 patients were assessed as meeting the study criteria. The overall sensitivity was 0.90 (95% CI [Confidence Interval], 0.87‒0.91; p = 0.00), the overall specificity was 0.99 (95% CI 0.98‒ 1.00; p = 0.62), the overall area under the curve (AUC) was 0.98. Next, in the comparison of US-CNB and US-FNA, US-CNB is better than US-FNA in the diagnosis of ALNs metastases. The sensitivity was 0.88 (95% CI 0.84‒ 0.91; p = 0.12) vs. 0.73 (95% CI 0.69‒0.76; p = 0.91), the specificity was 1.00 (95% CI 0.99‒1.00; p = 1.00) vs. 0.99 (95% CI 0.67‒0.74; p = 0.92), and the AUC was 0.99 vs. 0.98. Subgroup analysis showed that heterogeneity may be related to preoperative Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy (NAC) treatment, region, size of tumor diameter, and the number of punctures. Conclusion: US-CNB has a satisfactory diagnostic performance with good specificity and sensitivity in the preoperative diagnosis of ALNs in BC patients.

Objective:To compare the clinical effect of transaxillary non-inflatable endoscopic surgery and traditional open thyroid surgery in the treatment of PTC. Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 342 patients with PTC treated in the Otorhinolaryngology Department of Qilu Hospital of Shandong University from December 2020 to December 2022. There were 73 males and 269 females, aged 16-72 years, who underwent unilateral non-inflatable transaxillary endoscopic thyroid surgery（endoscopic group） and unilateral traditional open thyroid surgery（open group）. There were 108 patients in the endoscopic group and 234 in the open group. Results:The endoscopic group was lower in age（37.1±9.4 vs 43.5±11.2） years and BMI（23.4±3.4 vs 25.7±3.8 ）kg/m² than that in the open group, and the difference was statistically significant（t was 5.53, 5.67 respectively, P<0.01）. There was no significant difference in hospitalization days between the two groups（P>0.05）. The logarithmic curve of the operation time showed a smooth downward trend, and the overall operation time of the endoscopic group was relatively consistent. There was no significant difference in intraoperative blood loss between the endoscopic group（13.3±3.2） mL and the open group（14.7±6.3） mL（P>0.05）, but the operation time（130.1±37.9） min was longer than that in the open group（57.4±13.7） min, and the difference was statistically significant（t=19.40, P<0.01）. There was no significant difference in complications such as temporary recurrent laryngeal nerve injury within 3 days after operation between the two groups（P>0.05）. The aesthetic satisfaction score of the surgical incision and the incision concealment effect score in the endoscopic group were higher than those in the open group, and the difference was statistically significant（P<0.05）. Conclusion:Compared with traditional open thyroidectomy, transaxillary non-inflatable endoscopic thyroidectomy has more advantages in the concealment and aesthetics of postoperative incision. Although the former has longer operation time and more drainage, it is still a safe and feasible surgical method with good postoperative clinical effect.

Objective:To compare and explore the clinical efficacy and safety of endoscopic thyroidectomy by gasless unilateral axillary approach for the treatment of papillary thyroid microcar cinoma (PTMC) .Methods:One hundred and ten patients with unilateral PTMC admitted to the Department of Thyroid and Breast Surgery, Nanjing Hospital of Chinese Medicine Affiliated to Nanjing University of Chinese Medicine, from Jan.3 2019 to Mar. 2022 were used as clinical study subjects, and according to the patients' choice of surgical modality, they were divided into 30 cases in the endoscopic thyroidectomy by gasless unilateral axillary approach (ETGUA) group and 80 cases in the minimally invasive video-assisted thyroidectomy (MIVAT) group. We retrospectively compared and analyzed the differences in the surgery-related indexes, aesthetic satisfaction rate at 3 months postoperatively and functional status of the anterior cervical region between the 2 groups. SPSS 26.0 statistical software was used to process the data, analyze and draw conclusions. P<0.05 was considered a statistically significant difference. Results:The number of lymph nodes cleared in the study group (6.60±4.41) was less than that in the control group (9.63±6.25) ( P<0.05) ; the total operative time (169.83±28.76) min, postoperative drainage (173.60±94.33) ml, and time to remove drainage tubes after surgery (5.73±1.86 ) d was significantly higher than the total operative time (145.56±33.89) min, postoperative drainage (107.28±53.82) ml, and time to remove drainage tubes after surgery (2.88±1.07) d in the control group ( P<0.01) ;the intraoperative bleeding, number of positive lymph nodes, and postoperative hospital stay were not statistically significant between the two groups ( P>0.05) .The aesthetic satisfaction rate of the study group had a significant advantage over the control group (90% vs 70%) ( P<0.01) .Comparing the functional status of the anterior cervical region between the two groups after surgery,the occurrence of swallowing discomfort or with pulling sensation was better in the study group than in the control group 1 week after surgery ( P<0.05), and there was no statistically significant difference between the two groups in the occurrence of neck pain score, abnormal sensory function (neck pressure, foreign body sensation, numbness and pins and needles) and vocal difficulty ( P>0.05) ; 3 months after surgery, abnormal sensory function of the neck in the study group (at 3 months postoperatively, the occurrence of abnormal neck sensory function (neck pressure, foreign body sensation, numbness and pins and needles sensation) and swallowing discomfort or pulling sensation were better in the study group than those in the control group ( P<0.05). There were no signs of local recurrence or distant metastasis in both groups at follow-up to date. Conclusions:Both minimally endoscopic thyroidectomy procedures were safe, feasible, and effective in the treatment of unilateral PTMC. Among them, the ETGUA is more suitable for patients with strong cosmetic needs within the indications because of its concealed incision and its ability to protect the function of the anterior cervical region, and can be the preferred option.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy and safety of small incision surgery combined with multi-point skin fixation in the treatment of axillary osmidrosis.Methods:104 patients with axillary osmidrosis who were treated in the dermatology department of the Third Hospital of Changsha from January 2017 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. They were divided into the observation group (56 cases) and the control group (48 cases). Both groups were treated with small incision pruning combined with porous drainage. On this basis, the observation group was treated with multi-point skin fixation gauze compression bandage, while the control group was treated with conventional gauze stacking compression bandage. The efficacy, satisfaction, postoperative wound healing time and complication rate of the two groups were compared.Results:The effective rate of the observation group and the control group were 96.43%(54/56) and 95.83%(46/48) respectively, with no significant difference ( P>0.05). Compared with preoperative, the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) score of patients in the two groups was significantly lower after operation, and the difference was statistically significant (both P<0.05). The satisfaction of patients in the observation group was higher than that in the control group [(4.05±1.15)points vs (3.19±1.00)points], and the difference was statistically significant ( t=4.10, P<0.05). The wound healing time in the observation group was shorter than that in the control group, and the incidence of complications was lower than that in the control group, with statistically significant difference (all P<0.05). Conclusions:Small incision surgery combined with multi-point skin fixation for the treatment of axillary osmidrosis has good curative effect, short postoperative wound healing time and fewer complications, and improved patient satisfaction, which can be popularized in clinical application.
