Background

Resection of hepatocellular carcinoma located in the caudate lobe is challenging because this anatomical location is difficult to approach, especially the caval portion.

Methods

We performed resection of the caval portion of the caudate lobe using a ventral approach combined with the resection of segment IV, VII, or VIII for hepatocellular carcinoma in 41 patients (extended segmentectomy group). As a control group, 138 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma who underwent segmentectomy for IV, VII, or VIII (segmentectomy group) were studied. We compared surgical outcomes, including postoperative morbidity and survival, between the 2 groups.

Results

When compared with the segmentectomy group, platelet count was lower (12.8?×?104/µL [range, 2.4–33.8] vs 14.8?×?104/µL [3.2–41.4], P?=?.085), operation time was significantly longer (442 minutes [range, 184–710] vs 333 minutes [131–810], P?<?.001), blood loss was significantly greater (579?mL [range, 25–2688] vs 301?mL [10–3887], P?=?.001), and the percentage of patients with cirrhosis was greater (19 [46.3%] vs 41 [29.7%], P?=?.059) in the extended segmentectomy group. However, the morbidity rate (48.7% and 33.3%, P?=?.096) and median overall survival period (5.2 years; [95% confidence interval, 4.6–6.6] vs 6.2 years, [5.4–9.7], P?=?.203) were not significantly different between the 2 groups.

Conclusion

The ventral approach for the resection of hepatocellular carcinoma in the caval portion of the caudate lobe is a viable alternative to other approaches, especially in patients with insufficient liver function.  相似文献

Objectives

Orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) is the preferred treatment for hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in select patients. Many patients listed for OLT have a history of prior upper abdominal surgery (UAS). Repeat abdominal surgery increases operative complexity and may cause a greater incidence of complication. This study sought to compare outcomes after liver transplantation for patients with and without prior UAS.

Methods

Adult HCC patients undergoing OLT were identified using the database from the Organ Procurement and Transplantation Network (1987–2015). Patients were separated by presence of prior UAS into 2 propensity-matched cohorts. Overall survival (OS) and graft survival (GS) were analyzed by log-rank test and graphed using Kaplan-Meier method. Recipient and donor demographic and clinical characteristics were also studied using Cox regression models.

Results

A total of 15,043 patients were identified, of whom 6,205 had prior UAS (41.2%). After 1:1 propensity score matching, cohorts (UAS versus no UAS) contained 4,669 patients. UAS patients experienced shorter GS (122 months vs 129 months; P?<?.001) and shorter OS (130 months vs 141 months; P?<?.001). Median duration of stay for both cohorts was 8 days. Multivariate Cox regression models revealed that prior UAS was associated with an increased hazard ratio (HR) for GS (HR 1.14; 95% confidence interval (CI) 1.06–1.22; P?<?.001) and OS (HR 1.14; 95% CI 1.06–1.23; P?<?.001).

Conclusion

Prior UAS is an independent negative predictor of GS and OS after OLT for HCC. OLT performed in patients with UAS remains a well-tolerated and effective treatment for select HCC patients but may alter expected outcomes and influence follow-up protocols.  相似文献

Background

Despite curative resection of hepatocellular carcinoma, patients have a high probability of recurrence. We examined indications for liver resection in cases of recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma.

Methods

Patients undergoing a second liver resection (n=210) or treatment by transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (n=184) for recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma of up to 3 lesions were included. We developed a prediction score based on prognostic factors and compared survival according to this prediction score.

Results

The prediction score was based on 3 independent variables identified by survival analysis in 210 patients undergoing a second liver resection and included age ≥ 75 years, tumor size ≥ 3.0 cm, and multiple tumors. Each patient was assigned a total score. Median overall survival in patients undergoing a second liver resection with scores of 0, 1, and 2/3 were 7.9 years (95% confidence interval, 5.6–NA), 4.5 years (3.8–6.2), and 2.6 years (2.1–5.3), respectively (P < 0.001). Among patients with a score of 0, the survival in patients undergoing liver resection was greater than survival in those undergoing transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (median 7.9 [95% confidence interval, 5.6–NA] years versus 3.1 [2.1–3.7] years, P < 0.001), and resection was an independent factor for survival. In contrast, survival did not differ in patients with scores 2/3 (2.6 years [95% confidence interval, 1.9–5.3] versus 2.3 years [1.6–2.8], P = 0.176).

Conclusion

Liver resection is recommended as first-line therapy for recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma in patients with a score of 0, while those with score 2/3 should be considered candidates for transcatheter arterial chemoembolization.  相似文献

Background

Extracardiac birth defects are associated with worse outcomes in congenital heart disease (CHD). The impact of esophageal atresia/trachea-esophageal fistula (EA/TEF) on outcomes after surgery for ductal-dependent CHD is unknown.

Methods

Retrospective matched cohort study using the Pediatric Health Information System database from 07/2004 to 06/2015. Hospitalizations with ductal-dependent CHD and EA/TEF, undergoing CHD surgery were included as cases. Admissions with ductal-dependent CHD without EA/TEF were matched 3:1 for age at admission and Risk Adjustment for Congenital Heart Surgery-1 classification. Comparisons were performed using generalized estimating equations.

Results

There were 124 cases and 372 controls. Cases included 32 (25.8%) low-risk, 86 (69.3%) intermediate-risk, and 6 (4.8%) high-risk patients. Cases had more females compared to controls (53.2% vs 41.1%, P?=?.022). Cases were more likely to be premature (28.2% vs 13.7%, P?=?.001) and low birth weight (29.8% vs 11.8%, P?<?.001). Cases had a similar frequency of Down syndrome, and DiGeorge/Velocardiofacial syndrome, but a higher frequency of anorectal malformations (4.3% vs 2.4%, P?<?.001) and renal anomalies (27.4% vs 9.9%, P?<?.001) than controls. Cases had a higher mortality on univariate (22.0% vs 8.4%, P?<?.001) and multivariable analysis (odds ratio 2.45, 95%, confidence interval 1.34 – 4.49). Prematurity also was significantly associated with mortality on multivariable analysis. Cases had a longer duration of mechanical ventilation, longer hospital duration of stay, and higher total cost than controls (all P?<?.001).

Conclusion

In children with ductal-dependent CHD, EA/TEF is associated with increased morbidity, mortality and resource utilization. A majority of patients undergo EA/TEF repair prior to congenital heart disease surgery. (Surgery 2017;160:XXX-XXX.)  相似文献

Objective

Despite vast improvement in the field of vascular surgery, elective abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) repair still leads to perioperative death. Patients with asymptomatic AAAs, therefore, would benefit from an individual risk assessment to help with decisions regarding operative intervention. The purpose of this study was to describe such a 30-day postoperative (POD) risk prediction model using American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Project (NSQIP) data.

Methods

The NSQIP database (2005-2011) was queried for patients undergoing elective AAA repair using open or endovascular techniques. Clinical variables and known predictors of mortality were included in a full prediction model. These variables included procedure type, patient's age, functional dependence and comorbidities, and surgeon's specialty. Backward elimination with alpha-level of 0.2 was used to construct a parsimonious model. Model discrimination was evaluated in equally sized risk quintiles.

Results

The overall mortality rate for 18,917 elective AAA patients was 1.7%. In this model, surgeon's specialty was not predictive of POD. The most significant factors affecting POD included open repair (odds ratio [OR], 2.712; 95% confidence interval [CI], 2.119-3.469; P < .001), age >70 (OR, 2.243; 95% CI, 1.695-3.033; P < .001), functional dependency (OR, 2.290; 95% CI, 1.442-3.637; P < .001), creatinine above 2.0 mg/dL (OR, 2.1; 95% CI, 1.403-3.142; P < .001) and low hematocrit levels (OR, 2.157; 95% CI, 1.365-3.408; P = .001).The discriminating ability of the NSQIP model was reasonable (C-statistic = 0.751) and corrected to 0.736 after internal validation. The NSQIP model performed well predicting mortality among risk-group quintiles.

Conclusions

The NSQIP risk prediction model is a robust vehicle to predict POD among patient undergoing elective AAA repair. This model can be used for risk stratification of patients undergoing elective AAA repair.  相似文献

Background

Time-to-surgery from cancer diagnosis has increased in the United States. We aimed to determine the association between time-to-surgery and oncologic outcomes in patients with resectable pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma undergoing upfront surgery.

Methods

The 2004–2012 National Cancer Database was reviewed for patients undergoing curative-intent surgery without neoadjuvant therapy for clinical stage I–II pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma. A multivariable Cox model with restricted cubic splines was used to define time-to-surgery as short (1–14 days), medium (15–42), and long (43–120). Overall survival was examined using Cox shared frailty models. Secondary outcomes were examined using mixed-effects logistic regression models.

Results

Of 16,763 patients, time-to-surgery was short in 34.4%, medium in 51.6%, and long in 14.0%. More short time-to-surgery patients were young, privately insured, healthy, and treated at low-volume hospitals. Adjusted hazards of mortality were lower for medium (hazard ratio 0.94, 95% confidence interval, .90, 0.97) and long time-to-surgery (hazard ratio 0.91, 95% confidence interval, 0.86, 0.96) than short. There were no differences in adjusted odds of node positivity, clinical to pathologic upstaging, being unresectable or stage IV at exploration, and positive margins. Medium time-to-surgery patients had higher adjusted odds (odds ratio 1.11, 95% confidence interval, 1.03, 1.20) of receiving an adequate lymphadenectomy than short. Ninety-day mortality was lower in medium (odds ratio 0.75, 95% confidence interval, 0.65, 0.85) and long time-to-surgery (odds ratio 0.72, 95% confidence interval, 0.60, 0.88) than short.

Conclusion

In this observational analysis, short time-to-surgery was associated with slightly shorter OS and higher perioperative mortality. These results may suggest that delays for medical optimization and referral to high volume surgeons are safe.  相似文献

Background

Bariatric surgery in eligible morbidly obese individuals may improve liver steatosis, inflammation, and fibrosis; however, population-based data on the clinical benefits of bariatric surgery in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) are lacking.

Objectives

To assess the relationship between bariatric surgery and clinical outcomes in hospitalized patients with NAFLD.

Setting

United States inpatient care database.

Methods

The Nationwide Inpatient Sample database was queried from 2004 to 2012 with co-diagnoses of NAFLD and morbid obesity. Hospitalizations with a history of prior bariatric surgery (Roux-en-Y gastric bypass, gastric band, and sleeve gastrectomy) were also identified. The primary outcome was in-hospital mortality. Secondary outcomes included cirrhosis, myocardial infarction, stroke, and renal failure. Poisson regression was used to derive adjusted incidence risk ratios for clinical outcomes in patients with prior bariatric surgery compared with those without bariatric surgery.

Results

Among 45,462 patients with a discharge diagnosis of NAFLD and morbid obesity, 18,618 patients (41.0%) had prior bariatric surgery. There was a downward trend in bariatric surgery procedures (percent annual change of ?5.94% from 2004 to 2012). In a multivariable analysis, prior bariatric surgery was associated with decreased inpatient mortality compared with no bariatric surgery (incidence risk ratios = .08; 95% confidence interval, .03–.20, P<.001). Prior bariatric surgery was also associated with decreased incidence risk ratios for cirrhosis, myocardial infarction, stroke, and renal failure (all P<.001).

Conclusions

Prior bariatric surgery is associated with decreased in-hospital morbidity and mortality in morbidly obese NAFLD patients. Despite this, the proportion of NAFLD patients with bariatric surgery has declined from 2004 to 2012.  相似文献

Background

Studies evaluating the efficacy of minimally invasive approaches to pancreatoduodenectomy (MIS-PD) compared to open pancreatioduodenectomy (OPD) have been limited by selection bias and mixed outcomes.

Methods

ACS-NSQIP 2014–2015 pancreas procedure-targeted data were used to identify patients undergoing PD. Intention-to-treat analysis was performed.

Results

Of 7907 PD patients, 1277 (16%) underwent MIS-PD: 776 (61%) robotic or laparoscopic PD, 304 (24%) hybrid, and 197 (15%) unplanned conversions. There were no differences in demographics or comorbidities. Patients undergoing MIS-PD were less likely to have pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma (30.9% vs 53.9%, P?<?0.01) and less likely to have a dilated pancreatic duct (21.8% vs 46.7%, P?<?0.01). 30-day morbidity was less for MIS-PD (63.6% vs 76.9%, P?<?0.01), due to decreased delayed gastric emptying DGE) in the MIS-PD group (8.6% vs 15.5%, P?<?0.01). 30-day mortality, length-of-stay, and readmissions were not significantly different. Patients undergoing MIS-PD had greater rates of CR-POPF (15.3% vs 13.0%, P?=?0.03). On adjusted multivariable analysis, MIS-PD was not associated with CR-POPF (OR 1.05, 95% CI 0.87–1.26) but was associated with decreased DGE (OR 0.57, 95% CI 0.46–0.71).

Conclusion

MIS-PD has comparable short-term outcomes to open PD. While CR-POPF rates are greater for MIS-PD, this increased risk appears related to case-selection bias and not inherent to the MIS-approach.  相似文献

Background

Statins have been reported to reduce the risk of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). The effect of perioperative statin use on the prognosis of HCC patients undergoing liver resection remains unclear.

Methods

We retrospectively analyzed 643 patients who underwent curative liver resection for HCC. Patients negative for hepatitis B surface antigen and hepatitis C antibody were classified as the non-B non-C HCC subgroup (n?=?204). Perioperative statin users were defined as patients preoperatively receiving statin medications and maintaining?>?28 cumulative defined daily doses after liver resection. The recurrence-free survival (RFS) and overall survival (OS) according to statin use were analyzed in the overall HCC cohort or in the non-B non-C HCC subgroup.

Results

Among a total of 643 (HCC) patients, 43 patients (6.7%) received perioperative statin medications. In statin users, the proportion of non-B non-C HCC patients was significantly higher than in nonstatin users. Statin users had a high prevalence of obesity and diabetes, as well as dyslipidemia. The liver function of statin users was better than that of nonstatin users. The multivariate survival analysis revealed that use of statins was significantly associated with improvement of RFS (hazard ratio [HR], .42; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.25–0.71; P?=?.001), but not with OS (HR, 0.62; 95% CI, 0.30–1.27; P?=?.19). In the subgroup analysis of the non-B non-C HCC cohort, statin use was significantly associated with improvement of RFS (HR, 0.47; 95% CI, 0.22–0.99; P?=?.04).

Conclusion

Perioperative statin use was associated with an improvement of RFS in HCC patients undergoing curative liver resection.  相似文献

Background

The aim of this study was to review the surgical outcomes of patients who underwent major hepatectomy with extrahepatic bile duct resection after preoperative biliary drainage with a particular focus on the impact of preoperative biliary colonization/infection caused by multidrug-resistant pathogens.

Methods

Medical records of patients who underwent hepatobiliary resection after preoperative external biliary drainage between 2001 and 2015 were reviewed retrospectively. Prophylactic antibiotics were selected according to the results of drug susceptibility tests of surveillance bile cultures.

Results

In total, 565 patients underwent surgical resection. Based on the results of bile cultures, the patients were classified into three groups: group A, patients with negative bile cultures (n?=?113); group B, patients with positive bile cultures without multidrug-resistant pathogen growth (n?=?416); and group C, patients with multidrug-resistant pathogen–positive bile culture (n?=?36). The incidence of organ/space surgical site infection, bacteremia, median duration of postoperative hospital stay, and the mortality rate did not differ among the three groups. The incidence of incisional surgical site infection and infectious complications caused by multidrug-resistant pathogens was significantly higher in group C than in groups A and B. Fifty-two patients had postoperative infectious complications caused by multidrug-resistant pathogens. Multivariate analysis identified preoperative multidrug-resistant pathogen–positive bile culture as a significant independent risk factor for postoperative infectious complications caused by multidrug-resistant pathogens (P?<?.001).

Conclusion

Major hepatectomy with extrahepatic bile duct resection after biliary drainage can be performed with acceptable rates of morbidity and mortality using appropriate antibiotic prophylaxis, even in patients with biliary colonization/infection caused by multidrug-resistant pathogens.  相似文献

Background

Cardiogenic shock after cardiac surgery leads to severely increased mortality. Intra-aortic balloon pumps may be used during the preoperative period to increase coronary perfusion. The purpose of this study was to characterize predictors of postoperative cardiogenic shock in cardiac surgery patients with and without intra-aortic balloon pumps support.

Methods

We performed a retrospective analysis of our institutional database of the Society of Thoracic Surgeons for patients operated between January 2008 to July 2015. Multivariable logistic regression was used to model postoperative cardiogenic shock in both the intra-aortic balloon pumps and matched control cohorts.

Results

Overall, 4,741 cardiac surgery patients were identified during the study period, of whom 192 (4%) received a preoperative intra-aortic balloon pump. Intra-aortic balloon pumps patients had a greater prevalence of diabetes, previous cardiac surgery, congestive heart failure, and an urgent/emergent status (P?<?.001). Intra-aortic balloon pumps patients also had greater 30-day mortality and more postoperative cardiogenic shock (9% vs 3%, P?<?.001). On multivariable analysis of the matched control cohort, postoperative cardiogenic shock remained multifactorial. Among the intra-aortic balloon pumps cohort, only sex, previous percutaneous coronary intervention and preoperative arrhythmia remained significant on multivariable analysis (all P?<?.05).

Conclusion

Factors associated with cardiogenic shock among postcardiac surgery patients differ between those patients receiving intra-aortic balloon pumps and those who do not. Further analysis of the effects of prophylactic intra-aortic balloon pumps support is warranted. (Surgery 2017;160:XXX-XXX.)  相似文献

Background

The advisability of performing ileal pouch–anal anastomosis for patients with indeterminate colitis is debated. Indeterminate colitis is found in up to 15% of inflammatory bowel disease colectomy specimens. We determined long-term outcomes in patients diagnosed with indeterminate colitis undergoing ileal pouch–anal anastomosis.

Methods

Fifty-six patients were included with a mean follow-up of 14?±?7 years. Long-term behavior was defined based on surgeon assessment as “Crohn disease–like” in patients who subsequently developed clear signs of Crohn disease and as “non-Crohn disease–like.” Long-term function was assessed using the Cleveland Global Quality of Life and Pouch Functional Score.

Results

Thirty-nine percent of patients developed Crohn disease–like behavior, and 61% developed non-Crohn disease–like behavior. Both groups experienced a high rate of pouchitis (57%). Crohn disease–like patients required more anti-inflammatory/immunomodulatory medications (95% vs 18%, P?<?.001), dilatations for afferent-limb strictures (41% vs 0%, P?<?.001), and pouch reoperations (32% vs 6%, P?=?.02). Eight patients required pouch excision or diversion (7 with Crohn disease–like behavior). The Pouch Functional Score was equivalent between groups.

Conclusion

Long-term function after ileal pouch–anal anastomosis for the majority of indeterminate colitis patients was good. Approximately 40% eventually exhibited Crohn disease–like behavior, but the majority had acceptable function and quality of life. Ileal pouch–anal anastomosis is an appropriate surgical option for indeterminate colitis patients after informed consent.  相似文献

Objective

Surgical site infection (SSI) after open lower extremity bypass (LEB) is a serious complication leading to an increased rate of graft failure, hospital readmission, and health care costs. This study sought to identify predictors of SSI after LEB for arterial occlusive disease and also potential modifiable factors to improve outcomes.

Methods

Data from a statewide cardiovascular consortium of 35 hospitals were used to obtain demographic, procedural, and hospital risk factors for patients undergoing elective or urgent open LEB between January 2012 and June 2015. Bivariate comparisons and targeted maximum likelihood estimation were used to identify independent risk factors of SSI. Adjusted odds ratios (ORs) were calculated for patient demographics, comorbidities, operative details, and hospital-level factors.

Results

Our study population included 3033 patients who underwent 703 femoral-femoral bypasses, 1431 femoral-popliteal bypasses, and 899 femoral-distal vessel bypasses. An SSI was diagnosed in 320 patients (10.6%) ≤30 days after the index operation. Adjusted patient and procedural predictors of SSI included renal failure currently requiring dialysis (OR, 4.35; 95% confidence interval [CI], 3.45-5.47; P < .001), hypertension (OR, 4.29; 95% CI, 2.74-6.72; P < .001), body mass index ≥25 kg/m2 (OR, 1.78; 95% CI, 1.23-2.57; P = .002), procedural time >240 minutes (OR, 2.95; 95% CI, 1.89-4.62; P < .001), and iodine-only skin preparation (OR, 1.73; 95% CI, 1.02-2.91; P = .04). Hospital factors associated with increased SSI included hospital size <500 beds (OR, 2.22; 95% CI, 1.09-4.55; P = .028) and major teaching hospital (OR, 1.66; 95% CI, 1.07-2.58; P = .024). SSI resulted in increased risk of major amputation and surgical reoperation (P < .01), but did not affect 30-day mortality.

Conclusions

SSI after LEB is associated with an increase in rate of amputation and reoperation. Several patient, operative, and hospital-related risk factors that predict postoperative SSI were identified, suggesting that targeted improvements in perioperative care may decrease complications and improve vascular patient outcomes.  相似文献

Background

Sphingosine-1-phosphate, a pleiotropic bioactive lipid mediator, is an important player in cancer progression. Previous studies suggested that sphingosine-1-phosphate produced by sphingosine kinase 1, which is activated by phosphorylation, plays important roles in the progression of disease and metastasis. The association between phospho-sphingosine-1-phosphate produced by sphingosine kinase 1 and clinical parameters in human gastric cancer have not been fully investigated to date.

Methods

We created phospho-sphingosine-1-phosphate produced by sphingosine kinase expression profiles by immunohistochemistry for 136 patients who underwent operative intervention for gastric cancer in 2007–2009. Phospho-sphingosine-1-phosphate produced by sphingosine kinase expression and compared clinicopathologic factors by univariate and multivariate analyses.

Results

The univariate analysis revealed that phospho-sphingosine-1-phosphate produced by sphingosine kinase expression was correlated significantly with depth of tumor invasion, lymph node metastasis, distant metastasis, histologic type, and lymphatic invasion. The multivariate analysis revealed that the diffuse type (odds ratio 2.210; 95% confidence interval, 1.045–4.671, P?=?.038) and the presence of lymphatic invasion (odds ratio 3.697; 95% confidence interval, 1.161–8.483, P?=?.002) were associated independently with phospho-sphingosine-1-phosphate produced by sphingosine kinase expression in patients with gastric cancer. The 5-year rate of disease-specific survival was 79.3% in patients with phospho-sphingosine-1-phosphate produced by sphingosine kinasephospho-sphingosine-1-phosphate produced by sphingosine kinase-positive expression and 98.3% in those with phospho-sphingosine-1-phosphate produced by sphingosine kinase-negative expression (P?=?.002). In multivariate analysis, however, high phospho-sphingosine-1-phosphate produced by sphingosine kinase expression was not an independent prognostic factor for disease-specific survival (hazard ratio 5.540; 95% confidence interval, 0.717–42.81, P?=?.100).

Conclusion

We provide the first evidence that diffuse histologic type and lymphatic invasion were independently associated with high phospho-sphingosine-1-phosphate produced by sphingosine kinase expression in gastric cancer patients, indicating a role of sphingosine-1-phosphate in disease progression among patients with gastric cancer.

Background

We evaluated effect of resident involvement on outcomes after laparoscopic and open colon resection for malignancy.

Methods

Patients undergoing colectomy were queried using the American College of Surgeons' National Surgical Quality Improvement Program. “Attending alone” and “Resident” cohorts were compared with primary end point of overall morbidity.

Results

Of 37,330 patients, residents were involved in 26,190 (70.2%) cases. Attending alone patients were older with higher vascular, cardiac, and pulmonary comorbidity. Univariate analysis demonstrated increased operative time (181.0 ± 98.4 vs 138.7 ± 77.0, P < .001), reoperation (5.7% vs 5.2%, P = .041), and readmission rates (11.9% vs 9.6%, P = .037) with resident involvement. Serious (16.0% vs 13.9%, P < .001), minor (17.5% vs 14.1%, P < .001), and overall morbidity (26.4% vs 22.5%, P < .001) were higher with resident participation. Mortality (2.0% vs 2.8%, P < .001) and failure to rescue (.8% vs 1.2%, P < .029) were lower with resident involvement. Resident involvement showed independent association with overall morbidity in both laparoscopic (odds ratio, 1.2; 95% confidence interval, 1.13 to 1.38, P < .001) and open cases (odds ratio 1.3, 95% confidence interval, 1.18 to 1.35, P < .001).

Conclusions

Resident participation in colectomy for malignancy is associated with lower mortality at the expense of higher overall morbidity.  相似文献

Background

Patients with mental health disorders have worse medical outcomes and experience excess mortality compared with those without a mental health comorbidity. This study aimed to evaluate the relationship between mental health comorbidities and surgical outcomes.

Methods

This retrospective cohort study used the National Inpatient Sample (2009–2011) to select patients who underwent one of the 4 most common general surgery procedures (cholecystectomy and common duct exploration, colorectal resection, excision and lysis of peritoneal adhesions, and appendectomy). Patients with a concurrent mental health diagnosis were identified. Multivariable logistic regression examined outcomes, including prolonged length of stay, in-hospital mortality, and postoperative complications.

Results

Of the 579,851 patients included, 38,702 patients (6.7%) had a mental health diagnosis. Mood disorders were most prevalent (58.7%), followed by substance abuse (23.8%). After adjustment for confounders, including sex, race, number of comorbidities, admission status, open operations, insurance, and income quartile, we found that having a mental health diagnosis conferred a 40% greater odds of including prolonged length of stay (OR 1.41, P?<?.001) and increased odds of any complication (OR 1.18, P?<?.001). Odds of death were slightly less in the mental health diagnosis cohort.

Conclusions

General surgery patients with comorbid mental disease experience a greater incidence of postoperative complications and longer hospitalizations. Recognizing these disparate outcomes is the first step in understanding how to optimize care for this frequently marginalized population.  相似文献

Background

Studies comparing orthotopic liver transplantation to margin negative resection for patients with small unifocal hepatocellular carcinoma have not controlled for degree of cirrhosis.

Methods

The National Cancer Database was used to identify patients with preserved liver function (Model for End-stage Liver Disease score ≤12) who underwent orthotopic liver transplantation or margin negative resection for American Joint Committee on Cancer stage I hepatocellular carcinoma lesions <3?cm between 2010 and 2013. Multivariable and Cox regression adjusting for age, demographics, comorbid disease burden, Model for End-stage Liver Disease score, tumor size, and operation were used to compare overall survival between cohorts.

Results

In the study, 241 (53%) patients underwent orthotopic liver transplantation. In addition, 219 (47%) underwent margin negative resection. On multivariable regression, patients having a Charlson comorbidity score ≥2 were more likely to undergo orthotopic liver transplantation, (odds ratio 1.94, P?=?.03). African American patients (odds ratio 0.44, P?=?.02), and patients of advanced age (odds ratio 0.92, P?<?.001) were more likely to undergo margin negative resection. Patients undergoing orthotopic liver transplantation had longer overall survival than those undergoing margin negative resection (median OS not reached versus 67.6 months, P?<?.001). Multivariable Cox regression identified surgical procedure as the only independent determinant of survival with margin negative resection conferring a nearly 3-fold increased risk of death (hazard ratio 2.86, P?<?.001).

Conclusion

Orthotopic liver transplantation offers a survival advantage relative to margin negative resection for patients with small unifocal hepatocellular carcinoma and preserved liver function.  相似文献

Metabolic syndrome (MetS) entails the simultaneous presence of a constellation of dangerous risk factors including obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and dyslipidemia. The prevalence of MetS in Western society continues to rise and implies an elevated risk for surgical complications and/or poor surgical outcomes within the affected population.

Objective

To assess the risks and outcomes of multi-morbid patients with MetS undergoing open ventral hernia repair.

Setting

Multi-institutional case-control study in the United States.

Methods

The American College of Surgeons National Surgical Quality Improvement Program database was sampled for patients undergoing initial open ventral hernia repair from 2012 through 2014 and then stratified into 2 cohorts based on the presence or absence of MetS. Statistical analyses were performed to evaluate preoperative co-morbidities, intraoperative details, and postoperative morbidity and mortality to identify risk factors for adverse outcomes.

Results

Mean age (61.0 versus 56.0 yr, P<.001), body mass index (39.2 versus 31.1, P<.001), and prevalence of co-morbidities of multiple organ systems were significantly higher (P<.001) in the MetS cohort compared to control. Patients with MetS received higher American Society of Anesthesiologists classifications (81.0% versus 43.1% class 3 or higher, P<.001), were more likely to require operation as emergency cases (11.4% versus 7.2%, P<.001), required longer operative times (103 versus 87 min, P<.001), had longer hospitalizations (3.5 versus 2.4 d, P<.001), and had more contaminated wounds (15.9% versus 12.0% class 2 or higher, P<.001). Overall, they had more medical (7.5% versus 4.2%, P<.001), and surgical complications (9.7% versus 5.4%, P<.001), experienced more readmissions (8.3% versus 5.7%, P<.001) and reoperations (3.4% versus 2.5%, P<.001), and were at higher risk for eventual death (.8% versus .5%, P=.008).

Conclusions

The presence of MetS is related to a multitude of unfavorable outcomes and increased mortality after open ventral hernia repair compared with a non-MetS control group. MetS is a useful marker for high operative risk in a population that is generally prone to obesity and its associated diseases.  相似文献

Background

The benefit of adding external beam radiation to adjuvant chemotherapy in patients that have undergone a margin positive resection for early stage, pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma has not been determined definitively.

Methods

The National Cancer Data Base was queried to evaluate the utility of adjuvant radiation in patients with pathologic stage I–II pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma who underwent upfront pancreatoduodenectomy with a positive margin (margin positive resection) between 2004 and 2013.

Results

In the study, 1,392 patients met inclusion criteria, of whom 263 (18.9%) were lymph node-negative (pathologic stages IA, IB, IIA) and 1,129 (81.1%) were node-positive (pathologic stage IIB); 938 (67.4%) patients received adjuvant radiation and chemotherapy, while 454 (32.6%) received adjuvant chemotherapy alone. Cox modeling stratified by nodal status demonstrated the benefit of radiation to be statistically significant only in node positive patients (hazard ratio 0.81, 95% confidence interval, 0.71–0.93). Node-positive patients receiving adjuvant radiation and chemotherapy had an adjusted median survival of 17.5 months vs 15.2 months for those receiving adjuvant chemotherapy alone (P?=?.003). In patients who had negative nodes, there was no difference in overall survival with radiation (22.5 vs 23.6 months, P?=?.511).

Conclusion

Addition of radiation to adjuvant chemotherapy after a margin positive resection confers a survival benefit albeit limited (about 2 months) in patients with node-positive pancreatic head cancer. (Surgery 2017;160:XXX-XXX.)  相似文献

Background

Surgical enteral access prior to multimodality treatment for esophageal cancer is controversial as dysphagia is often used for feeding tube referral. We hypothesized that enteral access before neoadjuvant chemoradiation for esophageal cancer provides no benefit compared to that placed during definitive esophagectomy.

Methods

Patients undergoing esophagectomy for esophageal malignancy from 2007???2014 were retrospectively identified. Clinicopathologic factors were recorded including preoperative enteral access, weight change, nutritional laboratory works, and perioperative complications.

Results

Of 156 identified patients, 99 (63.5%) received neoadjuvant chemoradiation and comprised the study cohort. Fifty (50.5%) underwent enteral access (gastrostomy [14], jejunostomy [32], other [4]; “Access Group”) prior to chemoradiation followed by esophagectomy and were compared to 49 “No-Access” patients who underwent enteral access during esophagectomy. Clinicopathologic variables were similar between cohorts. The Access and No-Access cohorts had similar reported dysphagia (86% vs 75.5%, respectively; P?=?.2) and mean preesophagectomy serum albumin (3.9 vs 4 gm/dL, respectively; P?=?.2). Weight loss?±?6-month periesophagectomy was similar between access versus No-Access cohorts (?11.2% vs ?15.4%, respectively; P?=?.1). Weight loss during this period was likewise similar for patients with dysphagia in the Access (?11%) versus No-Access group (?15.2%, P?=?.1). No difference in complication rates was noted between Access (64%) and No-Access groups (51%, P?=?.2).

Conclusion

Despite healthcare provider bias, there seems to be no nutritional or perioperative benefit for enteral access before neoadjuvant chemoradiation for esophageal malignancy. Patients with esophageal malignancy should therefore proceed to appropriate neoadjuvant and surgical therapy with enteral access performed during definitive resection or reserved for those with frank obstruction on endoscopy.  相似文献
