ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the effect of chimeric flap pedicled with superficial branch of superficial iliac circumflex artery in repair of soft tissue defect of dorsal hand combined with metacarpal bone defect.Methods:From May 2015 to January 2022, 34 patients(28 males and 6 females) of soft tissue defects of dorsal hand with metacarpal bone defects were treated in the Department of Orthopedics of Yibin Third People's Hospital. The age of patients ranged from 22 to 51 years old, with an average age of 37 years old. The areas of soft tissue defects after debridement were 2.5 cm×5.0 cm-4.5 cm×9.0 cm, and the defects were all in dorsal hand and dorsal wrist. The lengths of metacarpal bone defect were 1.8-4.1 cm. All the patients had only single metacarpal bone defect, among which: 14 patients had defects in first metacarpal bone, 7 in second metacarpal bone, 4 in third metacarpal bone, 8 in fourth metacarpal bone and 1 in fifth metacarpal bone. All the patients were repaired by chimeric flap pedicled with superficial branch of superficial iliac circumflex artery. The size of flaps were 3.6 cm×5.4 cm-5.2 cm×9.5 cm. Anticoagulation, thermal preservation and plaster fixation were applied for 4-6 weeks after surgery. Postoperative follow-ups included regularly outpatient clinic visit, telephone or Wechat reviews. Follow-up items covered: the feeling and appearance of flaps in recipient sites, healing of the donor sites and recovery of hand functions.Results:All the 34 chimeric flaps survived. Regular follow-up lasted for 3 to 15(average, 10) months. All incisions in the donor sites of hip healed in stage I. TPD of the flaps was 5.1-7.3(mean, 6.4) mm. Appearance of flaps in the receiving area were satisfactory without swelling. Movement of wrists and metacarpophalangeal joints met the basic requirement of movement. The healing time of metacarpal defect was 2-3 months with an average of 2.8 months. Hand functions were evaluated at excellent in 6 patients and good in 28, according to the Evaluation Standard of Upper Limb Partial Functional of Hand Surgery of Chinese Medical Association.Conclusion:The chimeric flap pedicled with superficial branch of superficial iliac circumflex artery is an ideal flap to repair the soft tissue defect in dorsal hand combined with metacarpal bone defect. It has advantages of less donor site damage, good blood supply of flap, simple surgical procedure, and one-stage repair of a combined soft tissue and metacarpal bone defects.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate early postoperative psychological pain in patients with esophageal cancer and analyze its influential factors, providing evidence for developing accurate psychological management plan during the perioperative period of esophageal cancer.Methods:A cross-sectional study was conducted on the demographic data, disease data, and psychological pain screening management tool (Distress Management Screening Measurement of patients with esophageal cancer who received treatment in Chifeng Municipal Hospital between January 2019 and January 2021 with a self-designed general data questionnaire.Results:The average score of the distress thermometer was 4.5 ± 0.8 points among the 106 patients with esophageal cancer in the early postoperative stage. DT score was < 4 points in 40 patients (37.7%) and it was ≥ 4 points in 66 patients (62.3%). Univariate analysis revealed that in the general data questionnaire, education level, hospital expense, smoking history, and operation methods were the influential factors of early postoperative esophageal cancer ( χ2 = 7.87, 9.56, 12.65, 7.03, all P < 0.05). In the list of psychological pain-related problems, fatigue, depression, pain, sleep, breathing, eating, and child care were the influential factors of early postoperative physiological pain in patients with esophageal cancer ( χ2 = 48.18, 64.19, 42.17, 27.14, 36.13, 35.01, 8.01, all P < 0.05). Multivariate regression analysis showed that in the general data questionnaire, education level, hospital expense, smoking history, and operation methods were the influential factors of early postoperative esophageal cancer ( χ2 = 14.71, 8.31, 13.56, 6.47, all P < 0.05). In the list of psychological pain-related problems, fatigue, depression, pain, breathing, and eating were the influential factors of early postoperative physiological pain in patients with esophageal cancer ( χ2 = 5.45, 3.91, 4.89, 3.96, 4.00, all P < 0.05). Conclusion:The incidence of early postoperative psychological pain is high in patients with esophageal cancer. The main influential factor of psychological factors are physical problems, while the influential factors emotional problems, education level, hospital expense, smoking history, and operation methods cannot be ignored.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of double tract reconstruction of proximal gastric resection and Roux-en-Y total gastrectomy in the treatment of adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction, in order to provide reference for clinical selection.Methods:From June 2016 to June 2018, patients with adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction in Chifeng City hospital were prospectively selected and randomly divided into proximal gastrectomy double channel anastomosis group (PG group) and total gastrectomy Roux-en-Y anastomosis group (TG group). The perioperative indexes, clinical pathology, early (≤ 30 days) and late (> 30 days) complications of the two groups were compared, and the nutritional status [body mass index (BMI), prealbumin, albumin, total protein], and anemia degree [hemoglobin (Hb), red blood cell count (RBC)] of the two groups at 3 months, 6 months and 12 months after operation were compared.Results:A total of 83 patients with adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction were admitted, including 62 patients who were eligible for surgery, 31 cases in each group, 1 case in each group was lost to follow-up, and 30 cases in each group. There were no tumor recurrence or death in two groups. There were no statistically significant differences in age, gender, tumor size, tumor stage, preoperative complications, preoperative nutritional status and anemia between the two groups ( P>0.05). The time of first exhaust, time of starting fluid feeding and postoperative hospitalization in PG group was significantly earlier than that in TG group [(3.0±0.7)days vs (4.2±0.7)days, (7.9±0.9)days vs (9.0±0.9)days, (13.3±1.1)days vs (14.6±0.9)days, P<0.05], while the operation time was slightly longer [(252.0±36.9)min vs (225.8±31.1)min, P<0.05]. There was no significant difference in intraoperative blood loss and number of lymph node dissection between PG group and TG group [(241.7±81.0)ml vs (245.8±71.9)ml, (40.5±12.2)nodes vs (43.2±10.3)nodes, P>0.05]. There was no statistically significant difference in the occurrence of early and late postoperative complications ( P>0.05). The incidence of reflux esophagitis in PG group was less than that in TG group ( P<0.05). The nutritional status of PG group was significantly better than TG group in 3 months, 6 months and 12 months after the operation ( P<0.05). The Hb and RBC decreased in both groups at 3 and 6 months after operation, and the Hb and RBC in PG group were higher than those in TG group. There was no anemia in PG group and TG group 12 months after operation. Conclusions:Double tract reconstruction of proximal gastric resection is effective in the treatment of adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction. It is worthy of further clinical promotion.

ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION: Previous studies have demonstrated the possibility of detecting K mutations in the plasma of patients with pancreatic carcinoma. AIM: To investigate the diagnostic value of combined plasma K mutations with serum CA19-9 in patients with pancreatic carcinoma. METHODOLOGY: The study included 58 consecutive patients with suspected pancreatic masses and 21 healthy controls. DNA was extracted from plasma. Point mutation at codon 12 of K gene was analyzed by means of the enriched polymerase chain reaction-restriction fragment length polymorphism technique. RESULTS: No mutated K codon 12 was detected in the plasma DNA from the 21 healthy controls. Mutations of K codon 12 were found in plasma DNA samples from 29 (70.7%) of 41 patients with pancreatic carcinoma. Elevated CA19-9 was found in 30 (73.2%) of 41 pancreatic cancer patients. In total, 37 of 41 (90.2%) patients with pancreatic carcinoma tested positive by either method. Mutated K was also found in 3 patients and elevated CA19-9 in 8 of the 17 patients with other lesions in the pancreatic area. CONCLUSION: The results indicate that plasma K mutation analysis combined with serum CA19-9 determination could detect the majority of cases of pancreatic carcinoma.
