Objective : To investigate the occupational exposure to blood-borne pathogens among medical workers in a tertiary general hospital in Hangzhou City from 2010 to 2022, so as to provide the evidence for improving occupational protective measures among medical workers. Methods: The registration and follow-up data of occupational exposure to blood-borne pathogens among medical workers from 2010 to 2022 were collected from the blood-borne occupational exposure monitoring system in a tertiary general hospital in Hangzhou City. The population distribution, occurrence, protection and disposal of occupational exposure to blood-borne pathogens were analyzed using a descriptive epidemiological method. Results: A total of 1 230 cases were reported with occupational exposure to blood-borne pathogens among medical workers in the study hospital from 2010 to 2022, with the highest incidence in 2021 (4.67%) and the lowest incidence in 2010 (0.99%). The incidence of occupational exposure to blood-borne pathogens appeared a tendency forwards a rise from 2010 to 2022 (P<0.05). Of all cases with occupational exposure to blood-borne pathogens, there were 934 women (75.93%), 656 nurses (53.33%), and 514 cases with working experiences of one year and shorter (41.79%). Hand was the predominant site of occupational exposure to blood-borne pathogens (92.03%) and ward was the predominant place of exposure (35.37%), while scalp needle was the predominant mode of exposure (32.68%), and removal of needle was the predominant procedure of exposure (32.36%). A total of 1 106 cases were tested for the blood-borne pathogens in the exposure sources, and 448 cases were tested positive for blood-borne pathogens, with a detection rate of 40.51%. Hepatitis B virus, treponema pallidum and human immunodeficiency virus were the three most common blood-borne pathogens, and there were 739 cases (60.08%) with personal protective equipment during exposure. Following the follow-up surveillance for more than 6 months post-exposure, no infections occurred. Conclusions Junior nurses and hand exposure were predominant among medical workers with occupational exposure to blood-borne pathogens in the study hospital from 2010 to 2022, and hepatitis B virus was the predominant blood-borne pathogen. No post-exposure infections occurred.

Objective To evaluate regional blood flow occlusion (RBFO) in hepatectomy for liver neoplasms. Methods In this study, hepatic tumors were resected under RBFO in 28 cases (RBFO group), and under Springle's technique (control group) in 24 cases. The Child-Pugh classifications of liver function were grade A in all patients. The ligature ribbon was put in liver parenchyma around tumor to block the blood supply before resecting the tumor under guiding of B sounography in RBFO group. Anesthesia time, blood loss and transfusion, hospitalization, change of liver function and complications were compared between the two groups. Results Blood loss, anesthesia time and postoperative hospital stay were (340±92) ml, (98.4±25.0) min, ( 10.2±2.3 ) d in RBFO group and (620±124) ml, ( 135.8±47.5 ) min, (16.5±5.1 ) d, respectively, in control group, differences were all significant between the two groups (P <0.01, t = 9.222,9.328 and 5.875, respectively). On post-op day 2, ALT (U/L) was (378.4±35.2) vs. (539.2±115.4) (t=7.012, P<0.01), TBIL (37.5±11.2) vs. (51.8±29) mmol/L(t=8.818, P<0.01),PT (17.4±2.4) vs. (20.4±2.8) see(t =4.16, P<0.01) in RBFO group and control group, respectively. ALT was (57.1±15.5) vs. (98.1±21.2) U/L(t =8.039),TBIL (25.4±4) vs. (46.3±13) mmol/L(t=8.085),PT (13.2±4.2) vs. (15.7±2.2) see (t=2.621)on post-op day 7 respectively, again the differences were all significant between the two groups (all P<0.01). Conclusion Regional blood flow occlusion is an effective technique to control blood loss during hepatectomy for liver neoplasms.

Objective To study the morphological changes of the cyctic duct in bile duct stones secondary to choledocholithiasis.Methods The results of imaging examinations before cholecystectomy and biliary exploration with laparoscopy and cholechodoscopy were respectively analyzed in 108 patients.Meanwhile, the cystic duct morphology, diameter and dilatation during the operation were determined to investigate the features of changes in its morphology.Results Gallstones were confirmed in all of the 108 cases by B-model ultrasonography preoperatively.The gallstone was positive in common bile duct in 76 cases.Common bile duct dilatation was seen in 75 cases and cystic duct dilatation in 21.Common bile duct dilatation was found in 81 cases by MRCP and in 45 by CT.Cystic duct dilatation was found in 36 cases by MRCP and in 19 by CT.Cystic duct variety was found in 9 cases by MRCP.Laparoscopic transcyctic common bile duct exploration(LTCBDE)was performed in those patients with short and wide cystic duct.Conclusion MRCP is the effective method for considering the outlooks of the cystic duct in bile duct stones secondary to choledocholithiasis.

Objective To study the application of cyctic duct dilatiion in bile duct exploration through the cystic duct by laparoscope combined with choledochoscope.Methods LC + laparoscopic transcyctic common bile duct exploration were performed in gallstones combined choledocholithiasis in 70 cases.The dilation of cyctic duct was performed by gas-baloon or metal dilator in 39 cases.The dilation of cyctic duct was not performed in 31 cases.Results There was one case of bile leakage and one case of cystic duct damaging in cystic duct dilation group.One case was found bleeding in abdomen postoperation in non-dilation group.Abdominal drainage was(60 ±11)mL and(55 ±8)mL in dilation group and non-dilation group,respectively.Conclusions The dilation of cyctic duct is simple and safe to create the tunnel for common bile duct exploration through the cystic duct by choledochoscope.

ObjectiveTo discuss the treatment of complications post-pancreticoduedenectomy by reviewing the experiences from 62 cases.MethodsSixty-two cases of pancreticoduedenectomy from March 2001 to April 2011,mean age 59.3 ±4.1 years,were reviewed.All cases were divided into early group 24 cases and recent group (38 cases) by the difference in following aspects:perioperative management,the way of pancreatic bowel anastomosis and material choice,the vessels management,materials using in preventing leakage and bleeding.The differences in leakage,bleeding,infection,the stomach retention,biliary infections,liver abscess and incision infection in two groups were compared.ResultsThe early group showed pancreatic leakage in 10 cases,bleeding in 4 cases,celiac infection in 10 cases,gastric retention in 9 cases,biliary infections in 11 cases,liver abscess in 6 and infection of incision in 7 cases,respectively.Recent groups were in 4,0,0,0,1,2 and 3 cases,respectively.The comparisons showed the complications had reduced significantly in recent group than in the early group (x2 =77.08,P ＜ 0.001 ).ConclusionsMinimally invasive and high quality materials use,strengthening the perioperative management are the effective measures to reduce the postoperative complications.

Objective To study the complications after laparoscopic bile duct exploration.MethodsTwo approaches for bile duct exploration were used in 105 patients: (1) laparoscopic transcystic common bile duct exploration (LTCBDE) was used for patients with gallstones with choledocholithiasis and cystic duct dilation. No T tube was used for drainage, (2) Laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCBDE) was used for patients with gallstones with choledocholithiasis but without cystic duct dilation. The common bile duct was sutured primarily without T tube drainage in those patients with a small number of stones. T tube drainage was used in those patients with many stones or severe edema at the lower end of the common bile duct. ResultsWe carried out LTCBDE+ LC in 70 patients and LCBDE+LC in 35 patients, 14 patients had T tube drainage and 21 patients had no T tubes in the latter group of patients. Postoperatively, there were ascites in 17 patients (LTCBDE 6 and LCBDE 11 ), biliary peritonitis in 5 patients (1 LTCBDE and 4 LCBDE), abdominal pain in 13 patients (LTCBDE 4 and LCBDE 9), and fever in 11 patients (LTCBD 3 and LCBDE 8). All the complications responded to conservative treatment. 14 patients in the LCBDE group had residual stones.Choledochoscopy was used to remove the residual stones.There was no pancreatitis. Conclusions Adequate preoperative workup, good clinical judgment and precise treatment skill help to reduce complication rates after operation for gallstones with choledocholithiasis.

Objective To study the clinical features,experience of diagnosis and treatment in the IgG4 related pancreatitis and cholangitis.Methods Clinical date of sixteen cases of IgG4 related pancreatitis and cholangitis were analyzed as the observation group collecting from March 2006 to August 2016 of General Hospital of the Chinese People's Liberation Army.The clinical symptoms,imaging features and pathological findings were studied.Ten cases of bile duct carcinoma or pancreatic cancer with normal IgG4 value and no related immunodeficiency disease were selected as control group during the same period.Serum IgG4 values of two groups were observed.The patients were followed up in outpatient department after their discharged.The serum bilirubin,liver enzymes,serum IgG4,CA19-9 and CEA antibodies were checked up every 6 months,including imaging studies.The longest follow-up period was 6 years.Measurement data with normal distribution was represented as (x ± s) and comparison between the two groups was analyzed using t test.The count data were described as n (％).Results In observation group,cases with jaundice accounted for 68.75％ (11/16),abdominal pain and distension,loss of appetite and weight loss accounted for 43.75％ (7/16),62.50％ (10/16) and 37.50％ (6/16),respectively.Comparing different imaging methods,there were advantage in displaying the morphological signs of bile duct and pancreatic duct by MRCP.MRI was superior to the other methods in demonstrating pancreatic swelling and peripheral edema.Serum IgG4 value was an important basis for the diagnosis of the disease,the average value of serum IgG4 in the observation group was (105.7 ±21.6) g/L in 12 cases.The mean serum IgG4 level of 10 cases of control group (bile duct cancer and pancreatic cancer) was (9.1 ± 0.05) g/L,There was significant difference between the two groups (P =0.004).The pathological features of IgG4 associated cholangitis were massive lymphocytes,plasma cell infiltration,bile duct fibrosis,occlusive phlebitis,and IgG4 positive plasma cell infiltration.The observation group was followed up for 16 cases,12 cases survival,4 cases lost,the longest follow-up period was 6 years.Except for 3 patients who suffered jaundice again during hormone therapy,all the clinical symptoms of the remaining patients disappeared,all the indexes were normal.Conclusions The diagnosis of IgG4 related pancreatitis and cholangitis should be carefully diagnosed,serum IgG4 examination is an important criterion.The image data are an important means to confirm the diagnosis.Surgical intervention should be performed in failure of the hormone treatment.
