宫腹腔镜联合手术诊治不孕症150例分析

目的:探讨宫腹腔镜联合手术在诊治不孕症中的应用。方法:对150例不孕症患者行宫腹腔镜联合手术,对不孕症病因进行诊断,同时行治疗。结果:盆腔粘连和输卵管阻塞是不孕症的主要原因。子宫内膜息肉和正常盆腔占次要比例。子宫内膜异位症和多囊卵巢也是主要病因。150例同时行宫腹腔镜输卵管通液和各种疾病的治疗。联合手术后妊娠率为48.8%。结论:腹腔镜联合手术,在一次麻醉下,可以对不孕的原因全面评价和明确诊断,在诊断同时进行治疗,对不孕症的诊断和治疗有重大的意义,值得推广。     

Complete obstruction of the sigmoid colon treated by primary resection and anastomosis—An improved technique (preliminary report)

Three patients with complete colonic obstruction treated by primary resection and anastomosis with intraoperative colon tube decompression and bowel lumen sterilization without a protective colostomy are presented. An improved colonic decompressor was used. It is postulated that this procedure is an alternative safe technique in patients with colonic obstruction in whom an end-colostomy, mucous fistula, or Hartmann pouch would be necessary.     

Diagnostic value of D-dimer in outpatients with suspected deep venous thrombosis receiving oral anticoagulation.

D-dimer has proved a useful diagnostic tool for the exclusion of deep venous thrombosis (DVT). The objective of this paper was to evaluate the diagnostic performance of a diagnostic algorithm combining clinical probability and D-dimer in outpatients receiving oral anticoagulant treatment (OAT) similar to those regularly applied to nonanticoagulated individuals. We enrolled 70 outpatients on OAT who presented with clinically suspected DVT; a standard diagnostic algorithm including clinical evaluation using the modified Wells score and a quantitative immunoturbidimetric D-dimer assay (STA Liatest D-Di; Diagnostica Stago, Asniéres sur Seine, France) was used. A 3-month follow-up period was applied for those patients in whom DVT was initially excluded. The prevalence of DVT was 18.5% (13/70); four of the diagnoses were made during the 3-month follow-up period. The sensitivity, specificity and negative predictive value of D-dimer were 69.2% (95 confidence interval, 42.4-87.3), 47.4% (95% confidence interval, 35.0-60.1) and 87.1% (95% confidence interval, 71.1-94.9), respectively. In conclusion, D-dimer is of limited value in outpatients on OAT presenting with clinically suspected DVT and should be omitted in such individuals; these patients should always undergo compression venous ultrasound, and repeat ultrasonography within 1 week might be warranted in cases with an initial negative examination.     

Acute respiratory distress during Caesarean section under spinal anaesthesia A probable case of anaphylactoid reaction to Syntocinon

A case of life-threatening respiratory distress during a Caesarean section under spinal anaesthesia is reported. Possible causes of the event including anaphylactoid reactions and the methods of their diagnosis are discussed. The most likely cause of the episode was felt to be an anaphylactoid reaction to Syntocinon.     

The Rigiflex TTS: A New Method to Dilate Benign Esophageal Stenosis

Abstract: This paper dicusses the use of esophageal dilatation with a Rigiflex TTS balloon. This method was used 45 times on 11 patients affected by anastomotic or a severe grade peptic esophageal stenosis. Fluoroscopic guidance was used in 36 procedures (80%) without effecting the mean duration of the treatment (12 minutes). The results were considered satisfactory when these goals had been achieved: a) dilatation of the stenosis over 15 mm; b) a dysphagia free-time of more than 6 months. A satisfactory result was achieved in 10 patients (90.9%), without deaths and major complications. 5 patients received 1 dilatation and the other 5 needed, 3-3-4-7–11 procedures respectively to obtain a satisfactory result. On these basis we consider that its great efficacy, security and tolerability depend on the following characteristics of the Rigiflex TTS balloon: 1) “radial” dilatation; 2) the possibility of introducing the balloon through the operative channel of the fiberscope; 3) direct visualization of the stenosis during dilatation. The following disadvantages with this method are: the absence of a tactile sensation of dilatation and the elevated cost of the instrument. We conclude that the Rigiflex TTS balloon is an important alternative to guide-wire techniques, especially for the treatment of severe esophageal strictures.
