La prostatectomía radical retropúbica: control del plexo venoso de Santorini

ObjectiveHistorical review of the procedures and maneuvers described in the literature for the control of Santorini's venous plexus.Material and methodReview of original articles on the design of procedures and maneuvers for the control of the Santorini's venous plexus.ResultsThe control of Santorini's plexus is crucial to reduce blood loss and dissect the prostatic apex. The procedure was first performed by Chute in 1954 and has undergone subsequent modifications by several authors (Reiner and Walsh, Hayashi, Myers, etc.) who have published different maneuvers for its control.ConclusionThere is no ideal procedure or maneuver for the control of the Santorini's plexus.     

胃癌全胃切除术后肠内营养支持的护理效果分析

目的探讨分析胃癌全胃切除术后肠内营养支持的护理效果。方法选取2013年3月~2014年3月到我院进行胃癌全胃切除术患者共60例,按照随机方法分成观察组和对照组,每组30例。观察组实施肠内营养,对照组患者实施肠外营养,观察患者血总蛋白、白蛋白及血红蛋白三个营养指标的变化。结果两组患者在治疗前TP、Alb、Hb水平差异无统计学意义(P0.05),治疗一周后,两组患者的TP、Alb、Hb水平均明显高于治疗前,且观察组的上升幅度显著高于对照组,差异均有统计学意义(P0.05)。结论胃癌全胃切除术后肠内营养支持不仅可以给患者提供营养,还可以促进肠道功能的快速恢复,降低并发症发生率,有利于患者的早日康复。     

Small renal mass management in the elderly and the calibration of risk

Due to the increased utilization of cross-sectional imaging and prolonged life expectancy, the incidence of incidentally diagnosed renal tumors continues to rise. While partial nephrectomy is currently recommended as the gold standard treatment of cT1a small renal mass whenever technically feasible, the perceived benefits of partial nephrectomy may not be applicable to all patient groups. Selecting between treatment options in elderly and the infirm can present a significant challenge. Informed and thoughtful small renal mass management decisions require consideration and balance of patient, tumor, and procedural risks to maintain oncological efficacy while minimizing treatment associated morbidity. Herein we review the comparative effectiveness of partial versus radical nephrectomy in the elderly and the role of standardized tools to quantify risk.     

竖脊肌平面阻滞超前镇痛对老年胸腔镜肺癌根治术患者心肌的保护作用

目的探讨竖脊肌平面阻滞（ESPB）超前镇痛对老年胸腔镜肺癌根治术患者心肌的保护作用。 方法选择在惠州市中心人民医院择期行胸腔镜肺癌根治术的老年患者40例，按照患者意愿分组，其中19例采用ESPB联合全身麻醉（观察组），21例采用单纯全身麻醉（对照组）。在两组诱导前（T0）、手术开始1 h（T1）、手术结束时（T2）及术后4 h（T3）检测患者的肌钙蛋白Ⅰ（cTnⅠ）、心型脂肪酸结合蛋白（H-FABP）、肌酸激酶同工酶（CK-MB），并记录各时间点的平均动脉压（MAP）和心率。计量资料的组间比较采用t检验，重复测量资料采用重复测量方差分析。 结果两组患者MAP、心率、cTnⅠ、H-FABP、CK-MB的差异均呈现组间效应、时间效应和交互效应（MAP：F=24.021、33.512、9.184，心率：F=10.340、46.992、3.494，cTnⅠ：F=5.354、691.994、64.177，H-FABP：F=7.906、14.067、11.560，CK-MB：F=15.926、84.106、4.116，P<0.05或0.01）。与T0时间点比较，两组患者T1、T2、T3时间点MAP、心率、H-FABP、CK-MB均出现明显变化（P<0.05），T2、T3时间点cTnⅠ出现明显变化（P<0.05）。 结论老年胸腔镜肺癌根治术中应用ESPB超前镇痛，可明显降低心肌损伤相关因子水平，起到心肌保护作用。     

阳性淋巴结对数比在胸段食管鳞癌患者长期预后中的预测作用

目的评价阳性淋巴结对数比(LODDS)在预测不同胸段食管鳞癌患者长期预后中的作用。方法回顾性分析731例食管鳞癌根治术后患者临床资料,分析LODDS在全组患者、术后淋巴结阴性患者和术中清扫淋巴结数目<12枚患者中预测预后的价值。结果LODDS与阳性淋巴结个数和术中淋巴结清扫数目均显著相关(r=0.696、-0.530,均P=0.000)。ROC曲线分析结果显示LODDS最佳截点值为-1.028。多因素分析结果显示患者性别、年龄、食管病变部位、pT分期、阳性淋巴结个数和LODDS值为全组患者生存和术中淋巴结清扫数目≥12枚患者OS的独立影响因素(P<0.05);患者性别、年龄、食管病变部位、pT分期和LODDS值为术后淋巴结阴性患者生存的独立影响因素(P<0.05),而pT分期和LODDS值为术中淋巴结清扫数目<12枚患者OS的独立影响因素(P<0.05)。结论LODDS可以作为不同胸段食管鳞癌根治术后患者的独立性预后指标。     

萨提亚团体干预模式在老年肺癌根治术后患者中的应用

目的探讨萨提亚团体干预模式在老年肺癌根治术后患者中的应用效果。方法采用便利抽样法,选择2017年6月—2018年6月郑州大学第一附属医院收治的老年肺癌根治术患者82例为研究对象。随机分为观察组和对照组,每组各41例。对照组术后接受常规护理,观察组采用萨提亚团体干预模式。干预前后采用社会回避与苦恼量表(SADS)、Rosenberg自尊量表(RSES)和欧洲癌症研究所癌症患者生命质量测定量表(EORTC QLQ-C30)比较干预效果。结果干预后观察组患者SADS评分低于对照组,RSES评分高于对照组,差异均有统计学意义(P<0.05)。干预后观察组患者躯体功能、角色功能、情绪功能、社会功能、疲乏感、恶心呕吐、疼痛、呼吸困难、睡眠障碍、食欲丧失、便秘、腹泻、经济困难及整体生活质量评分均高于对照组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论萨提亚团体干预模式用于老年肺癌根治术患者,有助于提高患者自尊,纠正不良情绪,改善生活质量,值得推广应用。     

El papel de la resonancia magnética multiparamétrica en el diagnóstico de la recidiva local tras la prostatectomía radical y antes de la radioterapia de rescate

PurposeAssess multiparametric-MRI (mp-MRI) diagnostic accuracy in the detection of local recurrence of prostate cancer (PCa) after radical prostatectomy (PR) and before radiation therapy (RT).Materials and methodsA total of 188 patients underwent 1.5-T mp-MRI after RP before RT. Patients were divided into 2 groups: with biochemical recurrence (group A) and without but with high risk of local recurrence (group B). Continuous variables were compared between 2 groups using Student-t test; categoric variables were analyzed using Pearson chi-square. ROC analysis was performed considering PSA before RT, ISUP, pT and pN as grouping variables.ResultsPCa recurrence (reduction of PSA levels after RT) was 89.8% in group A and 80.3% in group B. Comparing patients with and without PCa recurrence, there was a significant difference in PSA values before RT for group A and for PSA values before RT and after RT for group B. In group A, there was a significant correlation between PSA before RT and diameter of recurrence and between PSA before RT and time spent before recurrence. The mp-MRI diagnostic accuracy in detecting PCa local recurrence after RP is of 62.2% in group A and 38% in group B. Diffusion weighted imaging is the most specific MRI-sequence and dynamic contrast enhanced the most sensitive. For PSA = 0.5 ng/ml, the AUC decreases while sensitivity and accuracy increase for each MRI-sequence. For PSA = 0.9 ng/ml, dynamic contrast enhanced-AUC increases significantly.Conclusionmp-MRI should always be performed before RT when a recurrence is suspected. New scenarios can be opened considering the role of diffusion weighted imaging for PSA ≤ 0.5 ng/ml.     

Knowledge,attitudes, and behaviors of women during pregnancy after bariatric surgery

BackgroundWomen of childbearing age constitute a substantial proportion of the patients who undergo weight loss procedures. However, little is known regarding attitudes and behaviors of women during pregnancy after bariatric surgery (BS).ObjectivesWe explored women’s experience and behavior during pregnancy after BS.SettingUniversity hospital.MethodsA cross-sectional survey study was performed among women who underwent sleeve gastrectomy and delivered at our center.ResultsOverall, 111 women completed the questionnaire (response rate 88.1%). The median surgery-to-conception interval was 34 (25–50) months. For 28 (25.2%) women, future pregnancy was a motivation for undergoing the weight loss procedure. Only 10 (9.0%) received contraceptive advice perioperatively. Oral contraception was the most commonly used method after surgery (n = 47, 42.3%). Pregnancy was reported as unintended by 37 (33.3%) women. Only 14 (12.6%) women stated receiving an explanation regarding the implications of BS on pregnancy outcomes. Rates of follow-up with maternal-fetal medicine specialists, bariatric surgeons, and dieticians during pregnancy were 36.0%, 9.0%, and 23.4%, respectively. Forty-four women (39.6%) felt follow-up throughout gestation was inadequate. Satisfaction from BS improved after pregnancy in 23 (20.7%) women, and 75 (67.6%) stated that they would recommend BS to a friend with obesity who plans to conceive in the future.ConclusionsWomen reported insufficient knowledge regarding the expected outcomes of pregnancy after surgery, with low rates of medical and nutritional follow-up. Only a minority of respondents received contraceptive advice after surgery, and unintended pregnancies were common. These observations represent areas of improvement for following women of childbearing age who undergo weight loss procedures.     

Bariatric surgery in the elderly: a randomized prospective study comparing safety of sleeve gastrectomy and Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (BASE Trial)

BackgroundThe aging population along with the obesity epidemic has increased the number of older patients undergoing bariatric surgery. Nevertheless, there is still conflicting data regarding surgical safety in this population.ObjectivesThe aim of this study was to compare the surgical morbidity of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (LSG) and laparoscopic Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (LRYGB) for older patients.SettingUniversity hospital, São Paulo, Brazil.MethodsWe performed a prospective randomized clinical trial from September 2017 to May 2019. Obese patients aged ≥65 years were randomized to LSG or LRYGB. Data collection included demographic information, body mass index (BMI), and co-morbidities. We assessed readmission, postoperative complications, and mortality. Complications were scored according to Clavien-Dindo classification.ResultsA total of 36 patients, with a BMI between 35.5 and 52.8 kg/m² were randomized to either LSG (18 patients) or LRYGB (18 patients). The overall complication rate was similar between LSG and LRYGB (3 versus 7, P = .13). Severe complication was more prevalent in LRYGB patients but had no statistically significant difference (0 versus 3, P = .07). Each group had 1 readmission and there was no mortality in 90-day follow-up.ConclusionsMorbidity and mortality rates of bariatric surgery are low in elderly obese patients. Despite not statistically significant, LSG had a lower rate of severe complications compared with LRYGB in this population setting.
