RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of XELOX regimen as neoadjuvant chemotherapy in the treatment of stage Ⅱ and Ⅲ colon cancer.Methods The clinical data of 50 patients with clinical stage Ⅱ(T4)Ⅲ colon cancer who underwent laparoscopic radical resection at general surgery department of our hospital from January 1,2012 to January 1,2021 were retrospectively analyzed.Patients were divided into neoadjuvant chemotherapy group(NACT)and adjuvant chemotherapy group(ACT)according to whether they received neoadjuvant chemotherapy with XELOX regimen.The general clinical data,adverse reactions of chemotherapy,surgical complications,operation time,intraoperative blood loss,hospitalization time,hospitalization cost,negative conversion rate of tumor markers,tumor remission rate,tumor downstaging rate,tumor response grade after chemotherapy,postoperative disease-free survival curve,and overall survival curve were retrospectively analyzed and compared among the groups.Results There were no significant differences in operative complications,postoperative exhaust time and hospital stay between NACT group and ACT group(P＞0.05).The adverse reactions of chemotherapy,the negative conversion rate of postoperative CEA and CA19-9,the duration of operation,the amount of bleeding,and the hospitalization cost in NACT group were significantly better than those in ACT group(P＜0.05).In terms of DFS and OS survival curves,with the extension of time,the decline of the NACT survival curve was smaller than that of the ACT group,and there was a significant difference in DFS survival curve(P＜0.05),but no significant difference in OS survival curve(P＞0.05).Conclusion XELOX neoadjuvant chemotherapy is safe and effective in the treatment of stage Ⅱ(T4)and stage Ⅲcolon cancer.
RESUMO
Objective:To compare the efficacy of transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE) with laparotomy in the treatment of severe liver injury.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 48 patients with severe liver injury admitted to 909th Hospital of Joint Logistics Support Force (Affiliated Dongnan Hospital of Xianmen University Medical College) from December 2013 to June 2020, including 28 males and 20 females; aged 16-75 years [(45.7±6.2)years]. There were 25 patients with grade III, 15 grade IV and 8 grade V according to the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma (AAST) classification. After general treatments such as infusion and hemostasis, TAE was performed in 26 patients (TAE group) and laparotomy in 22 patients (laparotomy group). The operation time and length of hospital stay were compared between the two groups. Erythrocyte, hemoglobin and serum creatinine were compared before operation and at postoperative 1 day. Alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) were analyzed before operation and at postoperative 1, 3, 7 days. Complications were observed.Results:All patients were followed up for 12-60 months [(17.1±9.1)months]. The operation time and length of hospital stay were (65.7±9.2)minutes and (21.6±6.6)days in TAE group, significantly shorter than (162.5±28.1)minutes and (31.5±7.4)days in laparotomy group ( P<0.05 or 0.01). There was no significant difference between the two groups referring to erythrocyte, hemoglobin and serum creatinine before operation and at postoperative 1 day (all P>0.05). There was no significant difference in ALT and AST between the two groups before operation (all P>0.05). TAE group showed ALT level of 1 154(884, 1 698)U/L, (975.3±400.9)U/L and (403.4±232.9)U/L at postoperative 1, 3, 7 days, significantly lower than 2 053(1 965, 2 132)U/L, (1 604.1±188.2)U/L and (915.3±160.5)U/L in laparotomy group (all P<0.05). TAE group showed AST level of (1 313.2±542.0)U/L, 525(302, 971)U/L and 174(84, 324)U/L at postoperative 1, 3, 7 days, significantly lower than (1 962.9±245.4)U/L, 1 478(1 089, 1 677)U/L and 837(674, 1 006)U/L in laparotomy group ( P<0.05 or 0.01). The complication rate was 26.9% (7/26) in TAE group, significantly lower than 59.1% (13/22) in laparotomy group ( P<0.05). Conclusion:For severe liver injury, TAE can significantly shorten operation time and length of hospital stay, accelerate the recovery of liver function and reduce the complication rate in comparison with laparotomy.
RESUMO
Objective To compare the differences of surgical site infection (SSI) between laparoscopic distal gas-trectomy (LDG) and open distal gastrectomy (ODG) for gastric cancer. Methods We set up strict inclusion and ex-clusion criteria. All the randomized controlled trials (RCT) on LDG and ODG for gastric cancer were collected. Meta-analysis was performed according to the recommendation by the Cochrane handbook. Results Six RCTs in-cluding 767 patients were analyzed, who were divided into LDG group (n =394) and ODG group ( n=373). Postop-erative wound infection and SSI were significantly lower in LDG than in ODG [RR=0.32, 95 %Cl (0.11, 0.91).P =0.03; RR= 0.28, 95 %Cl (0.12, 0.70),P =0.006]. There was no significant difference in intra-abdominal abscess between the two groups [RR=0.35, 95 % Cl (0.09, 1.31), P=0.12]. Conclusions LDG was associated with a lower incidence of SSI, especially wound infection, as compared with ODG in the meta-analysis.
RESUMO
Objective To study the prognostic factors of primary duodenal papilla carcinoma.Methods The clinical data of 73 patients with primary duodenal papilla carcinoma who were admitted to the Dongnan Hospital of Xiamen University from June 1995 to June 2005 were retrospectively analyzed.Ten factors including gender,age,jaundice,tumor size,course of disease,total bilirubin,tumor differentiation,lymphatic metastasis,type of surgery and degree of resection were analyzed by Log-rank test.Prognostic factors with significant difference were further analyzed by the Cox regression model.The survival curve was drawn by using the Kaplan-Meier method.Results The median survival time of the patients was 34 months.Age,jaundice,tumor size,course of disease,total bilirubin,tumor differentiation,lymphatic metastasis,type of surgery and degree of resection were correlated with the prognosis (x2 =18.315,4.562,7.989,10.660,11.138,7.995,5.423,114.464,83.383,P＜0.05),while no significant difference was found between gender and prognosis ( x2 =1.720,P ＞ 0.05 ).Multivariate analysis demonstrated that tumor differentiation,type of surgery and degree of resection were the factors influencing the prognosis of patients with duodenal papilla carcinoma (RR =2.039,2.178,5.798,P＜0.05).Conclusions Tumor differentiation,type of surgery and degree of resection are the dependent factors influencing the prognosis of patients with duodenal papilla carcinoma.The standard type of surgery and degree of resection are important for the prognosis of patients.
