对比微波消融与肝切除术治疗结直肠癌肝转移效果:Meta分析

目的采用Meta分析对比微波消融(MWA)与肝切除术(LR)治疗结直肠癌肝转移(CRCLM)的效果和安全性。方法检索PubMed、Embase、Cochrane Library、中国生物医学文献数据库、万方、中国知网、维普数据库关于MWA与LR治疗CRCLM的文献,检索时间自建库至2020年8月31日。依据纳入及排除标准筛选文献,以Review Manager 5.3和Stata 14软件进行Meta分析。结果最终纳入13篇文献、共1 534例CRCLM患者,MWA组685例,LR组849例。经异质性检验,1年总体生存率(OS)(I~2=0%,P=0.72)、3年OS(I~2=0%,P=0.86)、5年OS(I~2=0%,P=0.90)均无明显异质性,采用固定效应模型进行分析,结果显示MWA组与LR组间1年OS[HR=0.99,95%CI(0.95,1.02),P=0.44]、3年OS[HR=1.02,95%CI(0.93,1.11),P=0.74]差异均无统计学意义,LR组5年OS高于MWA组[HR=0.82,95%CI(0.69,0.97),P=0.02]。异质性检验示并发症无明显异质性(I~2=0%,P=0.78),以固定效应模型进行分析,结果显示MWA组并发症发生率低于LR组[RR=0.35,95%CI(0.23,0.52),P0.000 01)]。结论 MWA治疗CRCLM早、中期疗效(1、3年OS)与LR相当,远期疗效(5年OS)不及LR,但安全性更高。

基于纳米材料的肿瘤消融联合免疫治疗研究进展

影像学引导消融治疗已逐渐成为治疗不可切除实体肿瘤的重要方式,但消融治疗后存在肿瘤局部复发及全身转移风险。免疫治疗可通过增强机体自身免疫细胞功能间接清除肿瘤细胞,但多数实体肿瘤对免疫治疗的反应率较低。近年来,基于纳米材料的肿瘤消融技术发展迅速,为增强局部消融效果及提高系统免疫应答提供了新的可能。本文对基于纳米材料的消融联合免疫治疗肿瘤研究进展进行综述。     

The Efficacy of Radiofrequency Ablation for Bone Tumors Unsuitable for Radical Excision

BackgroundBone tumors can cause severe pain and poor quality of life due to recurrence and non-achievement of complete remission after surgery, chemotherapy, or radiotherapy. Radiofrequency ablation (RFA) can be considered for minimally invasive treatment of bone tumors that are difficult to radically excise. In this study, RFA was performed for bone tumors that were difficult to radically excise and did not respond to surgery, chemotherapy, or radiotherapy due to their large sizes and/or locations. The purpose of this study was to retrospectively analyze the clinical characteristics and survival rates of bone tumors after RFA and provide one more treatment option for the future.MethodsThere were 43 patients with bone tumors who underwent percutaneous RFA at our hospital from April 2007 to October 2017. The median age of the patients was 59 years (range, 31–75 years), and the median follow-up duration was 67.2 months (range, 10.2–130.5 months). Of the 43 patients, 26 were male and 17 were female. Thirty-four cases were metastatic bone tumors, 5 were chordomas, 3 were osteosarcomas, and 1 was a giant cell tumor. Pain and functional ability of the patients were evaluated using a visual analog scale (VAS) and the Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS) functional scoring system, respectively. Scores were recorded preoperatively, 1 week postoperatively, and 4 weeks postoperatively. The 1-year, 2-year, and 5-year survival rates were evaluated using the Kaplan-Meier method.ResultsThe mean VAS score was 8.21 preoperatively. The mean VAS score at 1 week, 4 weeks, 12 weeks, and 24 weeks postoperatively were 3.91, 3.67, 3.31, and 3.12, respectively. The mean preoperative MSTS score was 64.0% (range, 32%–87%). The mean postoperative MSTS score was 71.0% (range, 40%–90%). The 1-year, 2-year, and 5-year survival rates were 95.3%, 69.8%, and 30.2%, respectively.ConclusionsAs per our study findings, RFA was effective in reducing pain and improving functional ability of patients with bone tumors that were difficult to radically excise.     

Spinal metastases treated with bipolar radiofrequency ablation with increased (> 70 °C) target temperature: Pain management and local tumor control

PurposeTo investigate the safety and clinical efficacy of bipolar radiofrequency ablation (b-RFA) with increased (> 70 °C) target temperature for the treatment of spine metastases with the intent of achieving pain relief or local tumor control.Materials and methodsThirty-one patients with a total of 37 metastases who were treated with b-RFA with increased temperature and vertebroplasty from January 2016 to May 2019 were retrospectively included. There were 20 women and 11 men with a mean age of 62.4 ± 10.5 (SD) years (range: 40–78 years). Patients and metastases characteristics, procedure details and clinical outcomes were analyzed.ResultsMetastases were predominantly located in lumbar (22/37; 59.5%) or thoracic spine (13/37; 35.1%). Mean target temperature was 88.4 ± 3.5 (SD) °C (range: 70–90 °C). Technical success was 100% (37/37 metastases). One (1/37; 2.7%) major complication unrelated to b-RFA was reported. One (1/37; 2.7%) metastasis was lost to follow-up. Favorable outcome was noted in patients receiving b-RFA for pain management (16/20 metastases; 80%; mean follow-up, 3.4 ± 2.9 [SD] months) or with oligometastatic/oligoprogressive disease (6/6 metastases; 100%; mean follow-up, 5.0 ± 4.6 [SD] months). In patients receiving b-RFA to prevent complications, favorable outcome was noted in 6/10 metastases (60%; mean follow-up, 3.8 ± 4.8 [SD] months).ConclusionsB-RFA with increased target temperature has an excellent safety profile and results in high rates of pain relief and local metastasis control in patients with oligometastatic/oligoprogressive disease. Suboptimal results are achieved in patients receiving b-RFA to prevent complications related to the growth of the index tumor.     

Early experience with a new integrated microwave surgical device,Acrosurg Revo®, for laparoscopic surgery: A case series of two patients

IntroductionAbdominal surgery uses various energy devices for vessel sealing, tissue dissection, and detachment. Currently, Acrosurg Revo® (Nikkiso Co., Ltd., Tokyo, Japan), a novel energy device using microwaves, has been developed for use in laparoscopic surgery. This report describes the early clinical experience of using this device in two cases of laparoscopic surgery.Presentation of caseCase 1 was of a 64-year-old woman who underwent laparoscopic abdominal incisional hernia repair. Case 2 was of a 56-year-old man with a diagnosis of ascending and sigmoid colon cancer who underwent laparoscopic right hemicolectomy and sigmoid colectomy with D3 dissection. Each surgery was completed using Acrosurg Revo® and an endoscopic electrosurgical unit. The postoperative course was uneventful, and both patients were discharged from the hospital without any complications.DiscussionWith this new and novel device, vessel sealing, hemostasis, coagulation, tissue dissection, and detachment were all possible. Notably, there was no spark or mist that hindered the surgical field of view. Furthermore, because microwave coagulation did not result in tissue carbonization, there was a considerable decrease in device tip contamination.ConclusionThe Acrosurg Revo® may be a useful energy device for laparoscopic surgery.
