全结直肠切除、回肠J形贮袋肛管吻合术后肛管压力的变化

目的探讨全结直肠切除回肠贮袋肛管吻合术(ileal pouch-anal anastomosis,IPAA)后患者控便能力与肛管压力的关系。方法对16例患者行IPAA术,术后1个月、6个月、1年时随访控便能力,并检测肛管压力。结果12例获得随访,平均2.3(1.0~4.5)年,患者排便次数在术后1年时明显少于术前和术后1个月(P<0.05);肛管静息压和最大缩柞压在术后1个月、6个月时明显低于术前(P<0.05),但在术后1年时已有明显改善,与术前相似(P>0.05)。结论IPAA术后肛管压力的改变可能与患者的控便能力有关。     

Pulmonary resection for metastases from colorectal cancer

Aim: The prognosis of patients with disseminated colorectal carcinoma is poor except for those with single organ pulmonary or hepatic metastases. The objective of the present study was to evaluate the result of pulmonary metastasectomy for colorectal secondary and to identify the prognostic factors. Methods: This was a retrospective study of 80 patients who had pulmonary metastasectomy for pulmonary secondary from colorectal carcinoma in Queen Elizabeth Hospital, Hong Kong. Results: The overall 5‐year and 10‐year survival rates of the entire cohort were 42.5% and 35.5%, respectively. High premetastasectomy carcinoembryonic antigen (> 20 μg/dL), short disease‐free interval (< 12 months) and incomplete resection were the independent prognostic factors. Neither the characteristics of the primary colorectal tumour nor the number of metastatic nodules had a significant contribution to the long‐term survival. Six patients underwent second pulmonary metastasectomy and three were still free from tumour recurrence after the second operation. Conclusion: Patients with pulmonary metastases from colorectal carcinoma would benefit from pulmonary metastasectomy. High premetastasectomy carcinoembryonic antigen and short disease‐free interval were negative predictive factors for survival. Long‐term follow‐up study is required, as recurrence can occur more than 5 years after pulmonary metastasectomy. Also, whether the survival benefit is due to surgical treatment effect or lead‐time bias remains undecided.     

放大内镜及实体镜检查结肠肿瘤性病变(附139例报告)

目的探讨如何通过放大内镜观察到的大肠粘膜腺管开口类型发现早期大肠癌及癌前病变。方法2001年8月~2002年2月结肠镜检查139例大肠病变,采用内镜下粘膜染色技术,结合放大内镜、实体显微镜观察腺管开口分型(pit分型)并与病理诊断对照,pit分型采用工藤分型。结果139例患者中发现大肠息肉124例,进展期癌9例,侧向发育型肿瘤(LST)型病变5例,ⅡC病变1例。LST直径10~50 mm,其中ⅢL型1个,Ⅳ型4个。本组放大内镜与病理、实体镜诊断符合率较高。结论大肠腺管开口对于判断肿瘤性、非肿瘤性病变以及早期大肠癌具有重要意义,如发现有Ⅴ型腺管开口时则高度提示早期癌的可能。     

血吸虫病与大肠癌的地区相关分析

本文应用1974~1976年浙江省肿瘤死亡回顾调查和1975~1978年中国恶性肿瘤调查研究的资料以及中华人民共和国血吸虫病地图集,探讨了血吸虫病与大肠癌之间的统计学关系。地区相关分析结果表明,在我国和浙江省的血吸虫病流行区,血吸虫病发病率与大肠癌死亡率高低变化呈直线相关关系。我国南方12个省市自治区和浙江省嘉兴地区10个县的血吸虫病发病率与大肠癌死亡率间的等级相关系数分别为0.706和0.903,都具有非常显著的相关性,说明在我国血吸虫病严重流行地区血吸虫病可能是大肠癌高发的一个危险因素。     

Obesity in youth and middle age and risk of colorectal cancer in men

To investigate an association between colon cancer and obesity during early adulthood—a potentially important period in the etiology of this disease—the authors assembled, by computer linkage, a population-based historical cohort of 52,539 men born between 1913 and 1927 residing in Hawaii (USA), for whom weight and height had been recorded in 1942–43 and 1972. Linkage of this cohort to the Hawaii Tumor Registry resulted in the identification of 737 incident cases of colorectal cancer for 1972–86. An average of 3.8 cancer-free controls were matched to each case on month and year of birth and ethnicity of the parents. A case-control analysis in each anatomic subsite of the large bowel revealed that both early and middle-age body mass increased the risk of sigmoid cancer in men in a dose-dependent fashion. The odds ratios (OR) for sigmoid cancer for the highest compared with the lowest tertiles of Quetelet index were: 2.1 (95 percent confidence interval [CI]=1.4–3.2) and 1.7 (CI=1.1–2.5), at ages 15–29 and in prediagnostic years, respectively. These associations were additive and idependent of socioeconomic status. Men who were above the median Quetelet index in 1942 and 1972 had an OR of 2.7 (CI=1.8–4.0), compared with those who were below the median in both periods. This study provides further evidence for an association of obesity with colon cancer in men and suggests that this association is limited to the sigmoid colon and may be related to both early and late events of colon carcinogenesis.The authors are with the Epidemiology Program, Cancer Research Center of Hawaii, University of Hawaii.

PREVIOUS INTRAVENOUS CHEMOTHERAPY DOES NOT ALTER RESPONSE RATE OR SURVIVAL TIME OF PATIENTS WITH HEPATIC METASTASES FROM COLORECTAL CANCER TREATED BY HEPATIC ARTERY CHEMOTHERAPY

Background : The present paper addressed the issue of whether pretreatment with intravenous (IV) chemotherapy affects response rate or survival in patients receiving hepatic artery chemotherapy (HAC). Methods : Case note reviews of 164 patients treated in a teaching hospital from June 1990 to July 1996 were carried out. Results : The response rate and carcino-embryonic antigen (CEA) fall in the two groups was almost identical. There was a nonsignificant survival advantage in the non-pretreatment group. Conclusions : Previous administration of IV chemotherapy did not affect the CEA response of patients receiving HAC.     

Hypothesis: association of the critical region of trisomy 18 and 18q2—syndrome with dermatoglyphic findings and a growth suppressor (deleted in colon cancer) locus

Evidence from the literature is reviewed to suggest that when fingertip dermal ridge patterns in chromosomal deletion syndromes are characteristic of the opposite spectrum of the developmental scale from patterns found in cases trisomic for the same chromosomal region, the association may be a consequence of loci with growth regulatory functions. Evidence is presented that DNA markers at 18q21 should be the first candidate sequences to be used to test this hypothesis in families with fingertip arches segregating in an apparent autosomal dominant fashion.     

大肠癌组织p53基因突变及其与临床病理关系的探讨

应用非同位素标记ＰＣＲ－ＳＳＣＰ技术对３４例大肠癌组织ｐ５３基因第五外显子突变进行了检测。结果：５０％（１１／２２）结肠癌，８．３％（１／１２）直肠癌存在ｐ５３基因突变，低分化腺癌高于高、中分化腺癌（Ｐ＜０．０５），ＤｕｋｅｓＢ、Ｃ期高于ＤｕｋｅｓＡ期（Ｐ＜０．０５），ｐ５３基因第五外显子突变在已发生淋巴转移的大肠癌组织中呈现较强的趋势。提示：检测结肠癌原发灶ｐ５３基因第五外显子突变，对指导结肠癌的诊断、治疗及预后判断具有一定意义     

Laparoscopic colorectal surgery in Great Britain and Ireland – Where are we now?

OBJECTIVE: We aimed to gather information from the members of the Association of Coloproctology of Great Britain and Ireland (ACPGBI) to assess trends in the current practice of laparoscopic colorectal surgery. METHODS: A postal questionnaire survey of the members of ACPGBI. RESULTS: The response rate was 37% (200/540). Only 45 surgeons currently perform laparoscopic colorectal work in Great Britain and Ireland mainly right hemicolectomy and laparoscopic stoma formation, of these about one third practiced laparoscopy for benign colorectal conditions only. The majority (68%) of surgeons had enough resources at their place of work, but further training seemed to be a major issue. Nearly 22% of surgeons had not had any formal training. Only 50% of surgeons trained their specialist registrars. The incidence of conversion rate was not different for benign or malignant conditions and also did not appear to be related to the duration of experience. Only four surgeons had noted port a site recurrence during the past 10 years. Seventy-five percent (150/200) felt that laparoscopic colorectal work could be carried out safely in a District General Hospital. CONCLUSION: Laparoscopic colorectal surgery was being performed by a small minority of members of the ACPGBI although more surgeons had started to work in this field in recent years. The main areas of concern appeared to be a wide variation in the range of experience as indicated by the number of operations performed and limited formal training for consultants.     

运用组织芯片技术检测COX-2在结直肠癌中的表达及其临床意义

目的 探讨结直肠癌组织中COX-2的表达及其与各临床病理因素的关系，评价COX-2在结直肠癌预后判断中的价值。方法 应用组织芯片技术结合免疫组织化学SABC法，检测126例早中期结直肠癌组织中COX-2的表达情况，回顾性分析COX-2与各临床病理因素及预后之间的关系。结果 根据免疫组化染色强度，所有病例被分为COX-2高表达组和低表达组，其中高表达组有32例（25．4％），低表达组有94例（74．6％）。COX-2在结直肠癌中表达情况与年龄、性别、肿瘤大小、肿瘤部位、组织学类型、浸润深度、淋巴是否转移、Dukes分期均无相关。然而，高表达的COX-2与肿瘤复发、特别是血行转移显著相关（P〈0．05）。两组之间生存率具有显著差异（P=0．0067），COX-2高表达组术后五年生存率显著低于低表达组。多因素回归模型分析结果显示．在潜在的预后因素中（年龄、性别、肿瘤大小、肿瘤部位、组织学类型、淋巴是否转移、Dukes分期、COX-2表达），COX-2表达和Dukes分期可作为是结直肠癌根治术后独立预后因素，COX-2的检测可作为结直肠癌患者预后判断的一个有价值的指标。结论 高表达的COX-2与肿瘤复发、特别是血行转移显著相关，COX-2的检测町作为结直肠癌患者琐后判断的一个有价值的指标：应用组织芯片高效检测临床组织样本具有快速、方便、经济、准确的优点。
