Calcium absorption following small bowel resection in man. Evidence for an adaptive response

Seventeen patients who had undergone extensive small bowel resection were studied for calcium absorption (FACa) and plasma vitamin D metabolites. FACa was measured by a double radio-tracer technique and expressed as percentage of total oral dose. FACa was decreased compared with controls (34%, range: 3-46 v 65%, range: 57-73, P less than 0.01). A positive correlation (r = 0.49, P = 0.05) was found between FACa and the remaining length of small bowel (SBL). As wide variations in both SBL and duration after surgery were observed among the seventeen investigated patients, we were led to individualize less heterogeneous subgroups of patients. Better correlations were found when the patients were divided into two subgroups according to whether the time interval between the resection and the investigation was shorter (r = 0.75, n = 11, P less than 0.02) or longer (r = 0.89, n = 6, P = 0.05) than 2 years. In thirteen patients who had a SBL shorter than 100 cm, a positive correlation was observed between FACa and the time interval after surgery (months): r = 0.65, P less than 0.05. Plasma 1,25 (OH)2D was markedly reduced in the whole group (31 pmol l-1, range: 8-108) compared with controls (103 pmol-1, range: 59-134, P less than 0.01). The present study shows that in extensively small bowel resected patients, calcium absorption is reduced, the alteration being dependent both on the length of the remnant small bowel and on the time after surgery.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)     

Surgical approach after failed enteryx injection for GERD.

OBJECTIVE: We report on 3 patients who underwent laparoscopic antireflux procedures for persistent symptoms of GERD after biopolymer injection. METHODS: Experienced laparoscopic surgeons completed all 3 procedures laparoscopically. In 2 patients, there was an extramural extravasation of the polymer outside and adherent to the esophageal wall. In these patients, a partial posterior fundoplication was used. The third patient, who had the polymer material deposits removed preoperatively by endoscopic mucosal resection, underwent a Nissen fundoplication. RESULTS: Postoperative recovery was uneventful in all cases. At follow-up of 6 to 12 months, all patients were symptom free, off medical therapy, and experiencing no dysphagia. CONCLUSION: Surgical therapy for patients after failed biopolymer injection is safe and effective. The choice of surgery may depend on whether the polymer mass can be removed preoperatively.

Treatment strategy for synchronous metastases of colorectal cancer: is hepatic resection after an observation interval appropriate?

Background In cases of synchronous colorectal hepatic metastases, the primary colorectal cancer strongly influences on the metastases. Our treatment policy has been to conduct hepatic resection for the metastases at an interval of 3 months after colorectal resection. We examined the appropriateness of interval hepatic resection for synchronous hepatic metastasis. Materials and methods The subjects were 164 patients who underwent resection of hepatic metastasis of colorectal cancer (synchronous, 70 patients; metachronous, 94 patients). Background factors for hepatic metastasis and postoperative results were compared for synchronous and metachronous cases. Results The cumulative survival rate for 164 patients at 3, 5, and 10 years postoperatively was 71.9%, 51.8%, and 36.6%, and the post-resection recurrence rate in remnant livers was 26.8%. Interval resection for synchronous hepatic metastases was conducted in 49 cases after a mean interval of 131 days. No difference was seen in postoperative outcome between synchronous and metachronous cases. Conclusion The outcome was similarly favorable in cases of synchronous hepatic metastasis and in cases of metachronous metastasis. Delaying resection allows accurate understanding of the number and location of hepatic metastases, and is beneficial in determining candidates for surgery and in selecting surgical procedure.     

经尿道气化电切治疗前列腺增生

目的 探讨经尿道气化电切术(TUVP)治疗前列腺增生(BPH)的安全性和有效性.方法 对161例前列腺增生患者行TUVP治疗,其中伴全身症状和泌尿系并发症2种以上的高危患者、前列腺重量＞50g的患者共68例.平均年龄72.5岁,经围手术期处理后行TUVP治疗.结果 所有患者均安全度过围手术期.随访3～24个月,平均IPSS从26.6下降至6.6、MFR从6.2ml/s上升到18.6ml/s、PVR从376ml下降到8.9ml.结论 TUVP治疗BPH以及高危重度BPH是安全有效的,强调术中对前列腺尖部采用电切治疗以避免术后尿失禁等并发症的发生.     

残胃癌临床诊治分析

目的分析和总结残胃癌的外科诊断、治疗及预后情况。方法对1990年以来收治的35例残胃癌的发病率、临床表现、治疗情况和预后进行回顾性分析。结果首次胃切除以胃溃疡为主,占65.7%,首次手术BillrothⅡ式占82.9%(29/35)。残胃癌早期缺乏特异的症状,主要为上腹部隐痛不适,首次手术距临床诊断残胃癌的间隔时间平均为16.3年。本组残胃癌手术切除率及根治性切除率分别为77.1%和54.3%,根治性切除患者1、3、5年生存率分为78.9%、52.6%、36.8%,Ⅰ期、Ⅱ期患者的5年生存率为72.7%。结论胃良性病行手术治疗时以BillrothⅠ式为首选,定期胃镜检查是早期诊断残胃癌的关键,根治性切除是治疗残胃癌的有效方法及影响残胃癌预后的重要因素。
