ObjectiveWe evaluate our experience of previously blocking both pulmonary artery and veins in true video assisted thoracic surgery (VATS) for the treatment of non-small-cell lung carcinoma ( NSCLC ).MethodsSix patients undergoing lobectomy with previously blocking both pulmonary artery and veins in the VATS in our institution between December 2007 and June 2011 were reviewed.ResultsIn our series,six patients required previously blocking both pulmonary artery and veins in the VATS,The mean occlusion time of PA and PV was (42.0 ± 8.6 ) min and ( 39.3 ± 8.2 ) min,respectively.Four patients required partial PA reconstruction.The mean repair time of the PA was (21.25 ±9.91 ) min.No complications attributable to the technique or mortality were seen.There were no local recurrences on the pulmonary artery.ConclusionIt is feasible and safe that the technology of previously blocking of the pulmonary artery and veins was applied in VATS.This technique can reduce the risk of intraoperative bleeding and the chance of converting to open thoracotomy,and extend the inclusion criteria of VATS lobectomy.

Objective:To study the differentiation capacity of the fibroblast-like cells isolated from human skin dermis into mesenchymal stem cells, and to explore the feasibility to use these cells as alternative cell source of autologus bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs ) for regeneration of tissue inj uries and defects. Methods:Full thickness skin samples were obtained from the abdomen of surgical patients, then digested with dispase and collagenase Ⅰ subsequently. Thereafter, the digested cells were collected and cultured, followed by suspension with serum free medium containing N2,B27,basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF),and epidermal growth factor (EGF).The skin dermis derived spheroids (SDDSs)were collected and monolayer cultured in serum-containing medium.Finally,the cells were characterized by immunofluorescence staining and differentiation assays.Results:The dermis derived cells proliferated and formed SDDSs in the suspension of serum-free medium. After monolayer cultivation in serum-containing medium, the cells from spheroids were successfully expanded to large number. The cells expressed mesenchymal stem cells markers CD90, CD105 and vimentin. Under osteogenic,chondrogenic and adipogenic differentiation conditions,these cells were differentiated into the alizarin red,safranin O, and oil red O staining positive cells, displayed similar differentiation traits with BMSCs. However,safranin O staining was weaker in the dermis derived cells than BMSCs. Conclusion:A kind of fibroblast-like cells exist in human skin dermis, and have osteocytic, chondrogenic and adipogenic differentiation potentials,demonstrating that these cells will be utilized as a novel cell source for repairing the tissue injury and defect in clinic.

Objective The aim of this study was to determine the effect of a new method of cardiac assistant therapy with an extra-aortic balloon pump on the experimental dogs in which myocardial ischemia or infarction were induced, and to ob serve its effectiveness and feasibility. Methods Twelve animal models of myocardia 1 infarction were established with the method of left anterior descending coronary artery ligation. They were divided randomly into two groups, six in the experimental group and six in the untreated group. The end points observed were the differences between the two groups in the blood pressure, cardiac function, myocardial enzymes, infarction size and routine blood variables before procedure, 1,2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 hours after myocardial infarction. Results All six dogs in the experimental group were survived, with a mortality rate of 0.The number of death in the control group was three, with a mortality rate of 50%. Measurements such as mean blood pressure,cardiac output, cardiac index in the experimental group were better than those in the control group ( P ＜ 0.05 ). Mean heart rate before myocardial infarction in the experimental group was 156 beats per minute, as compared with 148 beats per minute in the control group, and was 128 vs. 67 beats per minute respectively six hours after myocardial infarction. The cardiac output was 3.48 vs. 4.98 liters per minute before myocardial infarction and was 6.10 vs. 0.85 liters per minute six hours after myocardial infarction. The average pressure was 94 mm Hg vs. 99 mm Hg before myocardial infarction and was 70 mm Hg vs. 33 mm Hg six hours after myocardial infarction. Conclusion The extra-aortic balloon pump significantly improved the hemodynamic variables of the experimental animals after myocardial infarction and reduced mortality. Injury to the blood cells may be the potential disadvantage.

Objective:To investigate the clinical significance of intraoperative prepositioning of dual mediastinal drains in elderly patients developing anastomotic leakage(AL)after a total endoscopic Ivor-Lewis procedure.Methods:This retrospective case-control study analyzed the clinical data of 500 elderly patients who underwent total endoscopic Ivor-Lewis surgery for esophageal or cardia cancer from January 2020 to December 2022.In the control group, one mediastinal drainage tube was placed intraoperatively, while in the study group, two mediastinal drainage tubes were placed.Both groups had a chest tube placed conventionally.The study compared the incidence of anastomotic leak(AL)at 1 month postoperatively, inflammatory indexes in patients with AL, grading of AL, rate of nasal fistula placement, incision infection, anastomotic stenosis, and incidence of hoarseness.Additionally, it compared ICU occupancy, ventilator use, and ICU length of stay between the two groups.Results:The analysis included clinical data from 455 elderly patients.Among the patients who developed AL, the study group had significantly lower peak body temperature[(39.58±1.03)℃ vs.(38.05±0.56)℃, t=4.298, P<0.05], white blood cell count[(18.63±3.35)×10 9/L vs.(14.28±2.78)×10 9/L, t=3.450, P<0.05], and C-reactive protein(CRP)levels[(154.66±41.64)mg/L vs.(122.19±31.29)mg/L, t=2.131, P<0.05]. The study group also had a significantly lower grading of AL and rate of nasal fistula placement(82.4% vs.30.0%, P<0.05). In terms of ICU indicators, the study group had a significantly lower ICU admission rate(64.7% vs.10.0%, P<0.05), shorter period of ventilator use[(6.47±8.15)days vs.(0.90±2.23)days, t=2.62, P<0.05], and shorter ICU stay[(11.70±8.89)days vs.(4.70±6.27)days, t=2.184, P<0.05]. Conclusions:Double mediastinal drainage tubes, have been found to significantly alleviate inflammation, decrease the rate of nasal fistula placement and ICU admission, and shorten the length of ICU stay in elderly patients.Therefore, they are considered safe and deserving of clinical promotion.
