Atraumatic retractor for endoscopic surgery

A novel retractor has been designed to achieve atraumatic retraction of the liver and displacement of hollow viscera during endoscopic surgery. The functional section of the instrument, when locked, forms a silicon-covered uniplanar hook which can be deployed for horizontal lift of solid organs such as the liver or be used to engage bowel for displacement from the operative field. Following laboratory testing, the instrument has been evaluated clinically and its ease of deployment and atraumatic nature have been confirmed. It has been found to be particularly effective for elevation of the thick fatty left lobe of the liver during antireflux surgery.     

肝硬化门脉高压性胃粘膜损害52例临床分析

本文对５２例肝硬化门脉高压性胃粘膜损害患者临床分析表明，肝功能损害与胃粘膜病变有显著相关性，而与胃底食道静脉曲张没有显著相关性。同一组病人中ＰＨＧ与ＧＥＶ的发生率虽有差异，但认为这种差异的临床意义不大。结合文献对ＰＨＧ的发生机理和诊断治疗进行了讨论     

涉及全椎骨之脊柱肿瘤的外科治疗

本文报告了4例涉及椎体及其后部结构的全椎骨肿瘤的外科治疗,介绍了全椎骨切除术的手术方法及手术注意事项。手术采用后路附件切除,上下椎体Steffee钢板内固定,前路椎体切除自体髂骨植骨融合,初步效果满意。本手术难度大、出血多、危险性高,术中采用控制性低血压,以减少出血。     

Self-expanding mesh stent for endoscopic palliation of rectal obstructing tumors: a preliminary report

Summary The endoscopic insertion of self-expanding mesh stents in four patients affected by obstructing rectal malignant tumors is reported. The preliminary experience shows that, in the short term, normal defecation was achieved, with no complications. Longer follow-up is necessary to evaluate the duration and the quality of the palliative effect.     

Endoscopic fistulotomy and biliary drainage as the ultimate palliative treatment for obstruction due to malignant tumors of the papilla of Vater

Summary This report describes the technique and results of endoscopic fistulotomy as a drainage procedure in cases of malignant obstruction of the biliary system from bulky and friable growths in the papilla of Vater. Fistulotomy, coupled with insertion of stents, was successful in seven of eight patients and was associated with relief of jaundice. It is suggested that the method be applied when conventional transpapillary insertion of stents is impossible either due to distortion of the papilla or bleeding of the growth on touch.     

胆管残余结石的内镜治疗(附306例分析)

目的：探讨内镜治疗肝内外胆管残余结石的效果。方法：对1994年1月～2004年1月间306例胆道残余结石的治疗效果进行回顾性分析，采用十二指肠镜127例，胆道镜116例，经皮经肝胆道镜(PTCS)63例。结果：306例．1中有286例成功(93．46％)。十二指肠镜治疗127例成功125例；胆道镜经T管窦道治疗116例，成功109例；PTCS治疗肝内结石63例，成功52例。结论：内镜治疗肝内外胆道结石效果显著，可使绝大多数患者避免再次手术。     

神经内镜治疗脑室内病变

目的探讨脑室内病变的神经内镜治疗。方法应用神经内镜对68例脑室内病变进行治疗,其中松果体区肿瘤16例,囊性颅咽管瘤15例,丘脑肿瘤14例,脑室内囊肿16例,侵及室管膜下的胼胝体肿瘤3例,侧脑室脉络丛乳头状瘤2例,侧脑室猪囊尾蚴病1例,侧脑室内分流管脱落1例。结果随访17～69个月,56例有效,12例死于肿瘤扩散。无严重并发症。结论对脑室内病变选择性应用神经内镜治疗安全、有效。     

经尿道电切与气化切割和激光治疗前列腺增生症的疗效比较

目的 :比较经尿道电切前列腺术 (TURP) ,经尿道前列腺气化切除术 (TUVP)及经尿道接触式激光前列腺切除术 (TULP)的治疗效果。方法 :在 30 0 0例前列腺增生症患者中 ,按三种术式各随机抽取 2 0例术前条件具有可比性的患者 ,进行疗效比较。结果 :3种术式患者手术前后前列腺症状评分 (IPSS)、生活质量评分(QOL)、最大尿流率 (MFR)、剩余尿 (PVR)比较均得到显著改善 (P <0 .0 1) ,3组之间相比差异无显著性意义(P >0 .0 5 )。手术时间 :TUVP及TURP组明显短于TULP组 (P <0 .0 1) ,术中失血量及术后置管时间 :TUVP及TULP组明显少于TURP组 (P <0 .0 1)。TURP组术后继发感染、出血、暂时性尿失禁发生率少于TUVP及TULP组。结论 :3种术式治疗效果相同 ;TUVP操作简单、安全 ,对初学者来说尤其适宜 ;TURP仍为治疗BPH的金标准术式     

Pericardial effusion following pulmonary resection

Objective Postoperative pericardial effusion commonly occurs after open heart surgery. However, after general thoracotomy such as pulmonary resection, there have been few reports of pericardial effusion. The purpose of this study is to investigate patients with pericardial effusion following pulmonary resection.Methods: Among 2,385 patients with pulmonary resection for lung neoplasm in our institute, eight patients, whose pericardium had never been opened during the operation, developed pericardial effusion. The clinical characteristics of the eight patients were analyzed.Results: Pericardial effusion after pulmonary resection was divided into two subtypes: pericardial effusion in three patients with left thoracotomy occurring within 30 days postoperatively, and pericardial effusion in the remaining five patients with right thoracotomy occurring more than 30 days postoperatively. Pericardiotomy or pericardiocentesis was performed in three symptomatic patients, and the remaining five asymptomatic patients were treated with diuretics. Pericardial effusion disappeared in three of the five patients about 1–3 months after the conservative treatment, while, in the remaining patients, because pericardial effusion had increased gradually, pericardiocentesis was performed.Conclusion: From our experience, the treatment strategy of drainage for early pericardial effusion and diuretics for late pericardial effusion seems to be appropriate.

肝部分切除术治疗肝内胆管结石

目的：总结肝部分切除治疗左肝内胆管结石的经验。方法：对1995年至2002年7月152例肝内胆管结石病人，13例行肝部分切除进行总结。结果：在10例行肝左外叶切除，3例行肝左叶切除经验的基础上，总结出在基层医院医疗设备不完善的情况下，控制肝脏手术中出血，简化手术，以免导致肝功能的恶化。减少了术后结石残留和复发率。结论：治疗肝内胆管结石的最有效的手段是切除病变肝段。
