LigaSure在腹腔镜胃癌根治术中的应用

目的探讨LigaSure在腹腔镜胃癌根治术中的应用价值。方法2001年7月～2007年7月，应用LigaSure行腹腔镜胃癌根治性切除术71例，按TNM分期，Ⅰ期15例，Ⅱ期33例，Ⅲa期23例。行根治性全胃切除术27例，根治性远侧胃大部切除术39例，根治性近侧胃大部切除术5例。采用腹腔镜辅助手术方法：以脐孔，左、右锁骨中线肋缘下，脐与剑突连线上、中1／3交界点为手术操作孔，术中扩大剑突下操作孔3～5cm为辅助切口。术中均采用LigaSure分离、处理血管，直接凝固切断包含直径达7mm血管的网膜及胃周血管；胃癌淋巴结清扫时，联合应用超声刀裸化血管，再用LigaSure钳夹凝固后，于闭合带远端剪断血管，完成腹腔镜下D2胃癌根治手术。结果71例均手术成功，无中转开腹，术中出血少，无术中、术后严重并发症发生，术后近期肺部感染3例、应激性溃疡出血1例、十二指肠残端漏1例（保守治愈）。LigaSure闭合胃周血管良好，未使用钛夹或腔镜专用切割吻合器（Endo—GIA）。71例随访4～72个月，平均38．6月，死亡11例（其中9例因肿瘤转移），远处转移10例，复发14例，2例术后远期吻合口狭窄。结论LigaSure行腹腔镜胃癌根治术安全、可靠，是腹腔镜手术理想的切割止血工具。     

MANAGEMENT TO PREVENT BLEEDING DURING ENDOSCOPIC SUBMUCOSAL DISSECTION USING THE FLUSH KNIFE FOR GASTRIC TUMORS

The gastric vasculature responsible for intraoperative bleeding in endosocpic submucosal dissection (ESD) is the ramified vascular network occupying the middle of the submucosal layer and large vessels penetrating the muscle layer. Appropriate management for these vessels must be addressed. The trimming of the ramified vascular network can be safely performed with coagulation mode following shallow mucosal cutting. A large penetrating vessel usually requires precoagulation prior to dissection. These procedures are effectively performed with the water jet short needle knife (Flush knife).

绝经后阴道出血的相关因素分析

目的探讨绝经后阴道出血的病因及相关因素。方法对129例绝经后阴道出血患者的临床资料进行回顾性分析。结果因良性疾病引起的出血占51.16%,非器质性疾病占25.58%,恶性肿瘤占23.26%,患者出血时年龄大,绝经年限长恶性肿瘤发生率高。结论绝经后阴道出血的主要原因是良性疾病和非器质性病变,但恶性肿瘤仍占一定比例。因此对绝经后阴道出血患者应采取综合的检查手段,明确病因,对因治疗。     

Impact of major co-morbidities on mortality and complications after gastric bypass

BACKGROUND: We hypothesized that major co-morbidities affect survival and complications after gastric bypass. METHODS: A total of 1465 patients undergoing laparoscopic and open gastric bypass between 1995 and 2002 were studied. Patients with a body mass index >or= 35 kg/m(2) and major co-morbidities (group 1, n = 1045) were compared with patients with a body mass index >or= 40 kg/m(2) with minor/no co-morbidities (group 2, n = 420). RESULTS: Group 1 patients were older (43 versus 36 years, P < 0.001) and had a greater BMI (53 versus 50 kg/m(2), P < 0.001). Early postoperative complications were greater in group 1 than in group 2 and included leaks (4.1% versus 1.2%, P < 0.0032) and wound infections (3.9% versus 1.4%, P < 0.0133). Procedure-related mortality in the series was 1.7%. Mortality was 10-fold greater in group 1 (2.3% versus 0.2%, P < 0.0032). The incidence of small bowel obstruction, incisional hernia, and pulmonary embolism was similar in the two groups. Excess weight loss was significantly greater in group 2 (68% versus 62%, P < 0.001) at 1 year. Resolution of group 1 co-morbidities was great, including hypertension in 62%, diabetes in 75%, venous stasis disease in 96%, and pseudotumor cerebri in 98%. CONCLUSION: Outcomes analysis of obesity surgery requires risk stratification. The very low mortality rates in published studies are likely explained by surgical treatment of low-risk patients with minor co-morbidities, such as those seen in group 2. However, despite the increased perioperative risk, the group 1 patients (with major co-morbidities) demonstrated dramatic resolution of their co-morbid conditions, justifying the decision to go forward with surgery. The data support a radical change in treatment philosophy in which morbidly obese individuals should be offered bariatric surgery before major co-morbid conditions develop as a strategy to decrease the operative risk.

Effects of gastric bypass procedures on bone mineral density,calcium, parathyroid hormone,and vitamin d

Weight loss after gastric bypass procedures has been well studied, but the long-term metabolic sequelae are not known. Data on bone mineral density (BMD), calcium, parathyroid hormone, and vitamin D were collected preoperatively and at yearly intervals after gastric bypass procedures. A total of 230 patients underwent preoperative BMD scans. Fifteen patients were osteopenic preoperatively, and three patients subsequently developed osteopenia postoperatively within the first year. No patient had or developed osteoporosis. At 1 year, total forearm BMD decreased by 0.55% (n = 91; P = .03) and radius BMD had increased overall by 1.85% (n = 23; P = .008); both total hip and lumbar spine BMD decreased by 9.27% (n = 22; P < .001) and 4.53% (n = 31; P < .001), respectively. By the second postoperative year, BMD in the total forearm had decreased an additional 3.62% (n = 14; P<.001), whereas radius BMD remained unchanged. Although total hip and lumbar spine BMD significantly decreased at 1 year, by year 2 both total hip and lumbar spine BMD only slightly decreased and were not significantly different from before the operation. Serum calcium decreased from 9.8 mg/dL to 9.2 during the first year (not significant [NS]) and then to 8.8 (NS) by the second year. Parathyroid hormone increased from 59.7 pg/mL (nl 10-65 pg/mL) preoperatively to 63.1 during year 1 (NS) and continued to increase to 64.7 by year 2 (NS). No difference was noted among levels of 25-hydroxy vitamin D preoperatively (25.2 ng/mL; nl 10-65 ng/mL), at 1 year (34.4), and at 2 years (35.4). Our data indicate that bone loss is highest in the first year after gastric bypass with stabilization, and that, in some cases, there is an increase in bone density after the first year.

Sentinel Bleeding After Pancreaticoduodenectomy: A Disregarded Sign

Introduction Delayed massive hemorrhage induced by pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy is a rare but life-threatening complication. The purpose of this study was to analyze the clinical course of patients with late hemorrhage, with or without sentinel bleeding, to better define treatment options in the future. Material and Methods From April 1998 to December 2006, 189 pancreaticoduodenectomies were performed. Eleven patients, including two patients referred from other hospitals, were treated with delayed massive hemorrhage occurring 5 days or more after pancreaticoduodenectomy. Sentinel bleeding was defined as minor blood loss via surgical drains or the gastrointestinal tract with an asymptomatic interval until development of hemorrhagic shock. The clinical data of patients with bleeding episodes were analyzed retrospectively. Results Eight of the 11 patients had sentinel bleeding, and seven of them had it at least 6 h before acute deterioration. Seven out of 11 patients died, five out of eight with sentinel bleeding. No differences could be detected between patients with or without sentinel bleeding before delayed massive hemorrhage. The only difference found was that non-surviving patients were significantly older than surviving patients. Delayed massive hemorrhage is a common cause of death after pancreaticoduodenostomy complicated by pancreatic fistula formation. The observation of sentinel bleeding should lead to emergency angiography and dependent from the result to emergency relaparotomy to increase the likelihood of survival.     

How do family practitioners perceive surgery for the morbidly obese?

BACKGROUND: Little is known about the level of knowledge and comfort with bariatric surgery among family practice physicians. METHODS: Surveys were sent to all family practitioners in Connecticut querying the practice type and knowledge of bariatric surgery. The results were analyzed for the prevalence of opinion. RESULTS: Of 620 surveys sent out, 129 (21%) were completed. Of the 129 respondents, 73% were men, aged 31-79 years, and 92% were board certified, with an average of 19 years' experience. The average body mass index of respondents was 26 kg/m2 (range 16-40). Only 4% of respondents had a body mass index >30 kg/m2. Physicians reported a patient obesity rate of 43%. Of the 129 respondents, 88% believed obesity was difficult to control with diet and exercise alone. Only 6% thought obesity was best controlled surgically. Also, 85% of respondents had referred a patient for gastric bypass, although only 57% were comfortable explaining the procedure. The most common reason for refusal to refer was fear of complications and death. Additionally, 55% correctly listed a body mass index of 40 kg/m2 as qualifying for bariatric surgery without comorbidities; 48% identified the mortality rate of surgery as <1%, with 4% of respondents reporting >10%; and 84% were familiar with gastric bypass, 66% with LapBand, 33% with vertical banded gastroplasty, and 5% with duodenal switch. The respondents believed that nausea was the most common side effect, followed by anemia and fatigue. Finally, 53% believed bowel obstruction was common. CONCLUSIONS: The results of our study have shown that misconceptions about bariatric surgery exist in the family practice community despite the increasing frequency of these procedures. Educational programs need to be designed to assist family practitioners in treating and referring obese patients.
