A mini-incision carpal tunnel release technique to prevent pillar pain: A technical note

Pillar pain represents one of the most common complications of classic open carpal tunnel release (CTR). This complication causes a sense of discomfort worse than the compression syndrome itself. We, herein, introduce a new treatment method for CTR through a mini-incision, which allows subcutaneously cutting the transverse carpal ligament (TCL) and releasing the median nerve without neurovascular complications. This mini-incision approach can allow the direct visualization and preservation of the thenar motor branch in those rare cases where it has an aberrant origin. For the past 10 years, we have consecutively performed this technique in the surgical treatment of 318 patients with the diagnosis of primary CTS, without developing any neurovascular and tendon injuries as well as pillar pain.     

乳晕入路全腔镜下甲状腺癌根治术与小切口甲状腺癌根治术的临床对比分析

目的:对比全腔镜下甲状腺手术与小切口甲状腺手术治疗甲状腺癌的手术效果及美容效果。方法:将33例术前行甲状腺细针穿刺抽吸诊断为甲状腺乳头状癌的患者随机分为两组,其中16行乳晕入路腔镜下甲状腺癌根治术(腔镜组),17例行腔镜辅助小切口甲状腺癌根治术(小切口组)。对比分析两组患者手术时间、淋巴结清扫数量、术后引流时间、术后并发症发生率、患者切口满意度等指标。结果:小切口组手术时间、术后引流时间均明显少于腔镜组(P0.05);两组淋巴结清扫数量、术后并发症发生率差异无统计学意义(P0.05);而腔镜组患者满意程度明显优于小切口组(P0.05)。结论:小切口甲状腺手术与腔镜甲状腺手术均属于美容手术,两者均具有良好的手术安全性及根治效果,小切口手术在手术时间、术后引流等方面优于腔镜手术,但颈部仍有2~3 cm的瘢痕。腔镜手术具有术后颈部无瘢痕的美容效果,美容效果更佳,但应严格掌握适应证。

Feasibility of colectomy with mini-incision

BACKGROUND: Laparoscopic resection has been advocated as a method of colectomy for various colon and rectal disease. One advantage claimed by laparoscopy is its smaller incision size. The aim of the present study is to evaluate whether mini-incision is feasible along with the advantage of adequate exploration of the peritoneal cavity. METHODS: From December 2000 to November 2003, 316 patients with various colorectal diseases receiving colectomies through a skin incision less than 7 cm were analyzed. All of the colectomies were performed by a single surgeon. Exploration of the entire peritoneal cavity was possible for all the cases. There were 153 men and 163 women. Ages ranged from 19 to 90 years, averaging 62.4 years. Two hundred ninety-five patients were operated on for carcinoma of the colon or rectum; 4 had operations for villous tumors with severe dysplasia; 3 each for radiation enterocolitis and diverticulitis; 2 each for malignant stromal tumor and rectal prolapse; and 1 each for lymphoma, actinomycosis, volvulus, angiodysplasia, Crohn's disease, ulcerative colitis, and ovarian cancer with rectal invasion. There were 15 abdominoperineal resections, 97 low anterior resection, 49 anterior resections, 64 sigmoidectomies, 7 left hemicolectomies, 81 right hemicolectomies, 2 subtotal colectomies, and 1 restorative proctocolectomy. No Harmonic scalpel or laser was used during surgery. No hand-port or laparoscope was used in the series. RESULTS: Five patients died of acute respiratory failure, 2 patients died of terminal cancer, and 1 patient died of hypoglycemia due to poor control of diabetes mellitus. Complications included 11 urinary tract infections, 8 intestinal obstructions, 6 anastomotic leakages, 6 wound infections, 5 respiratory failures, 5 pelvic bleedings, 2 pneumonias, 2 gastrointestinal bleedings, and 1 pancreatitis. Small incisions did not prolong operation time. CONCLUSION: This experience suggests that the majority of colectomies can be accomplished by an incision of less than 7 cm, which is no larger than the incision size used in a laparoscope colectomy if multiple incisions made for trocars are added to the main incision length. The advantages of mini-incision include lower cost, faster completion of procedure, reduced bulkiness of equipment, and the possibility of exploring the entire peritoneal cavity by hand without loss of tactile sensation.
