The reoperation for biliary diseases is usually unplanned, and the major reasons leading to this situation include:(1) The initial operation was performed under emergency situation and radical procedure could not be carried out.(2) The surgical procedure was inadequate.( 3 ) The operator was unqualified for the operation. In order to avoid repeated operations,the following principles must be obeyed strictly.Firstly,once the initial operation was failed,the patients must be transferred to large medical center and the reoperation must be performed by hepatobiliary specialists.Secondly,the operator must realize that most of the patients were in poor condition because of the previous operation,and they needed careful evaluation of organ function and adequate supportive treatment before reoperation.Thirdly,various measures must be taken to avoid unplanned operation and ensure the successful implement of radical operation at a time:( 1 ) Operator must learn all the details of previous operation,which include operation procedure,findings during operation and postoperative complications.( 2 ) Cholangiogram of the whole biliary tree is important for surgical planning,ultrasonography,computed tomography (CT),endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography,magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography, percutaneous transhepatic cholangiography (PTC),or PTC-CT should be performed solely or comprehensively to determine the nature and location of lesions.For bile duct injury,additional examination including CT angiography,magnetic resonance angiography or digital subtraction angiography is necessary to ascertain the accompanied vessel injury.(3) Making individual surgical procedure according to patien's condition and distribution of lesions.

Objective To investigate the effects of sevoflurane on the systemic inflammatory response and cardiopulmonary function in septic shock rats. Methods Thirty-two SD rats, 8-10 months old, weighing 250-300 g, were randomly divided into 4 groups (n = 8 each): sham operation group (group S), cecal ligation and puncture (CLP) induced septic shock group (group CLP) , sevoflurane I group (group SEV, ) and sevoflurane II group (group SEV,). The abdomen was opened but CLP was not performed in group S. The septic shock was induced by CLP as described by Baker et al. Group SEV, and SEV, inhaled 2.4% sevoflurane for 30 min at 1 h and 3 h after the successful establishment of the model respectively. At 1, 3 and 5 h after septic shock, MAP and HR were recorded and arterial blood samples were taken for blood gas analysis and determination of plasma concentrations of TNF-α, IL-1, MDA and NO. The left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD), left ventricular end-systolic diameter (LVESD), left ventricular fractional shortening (LVFS) and cardiac output (CO) were also detected 5 h after septic shock. The animals were killed after the detection of cardiac function. The lungs were removed for determination of W/D lung weight ratio and Evans blue (EB) content. The tissues from the heart, lung, liver and kidney were taken for detection of NF-kB activity by electrophoretic mobility shift assay (EMSA) ResultsMAP was significantly lower, HR higher, LVEDD, LVESD, LVFS, CO, pH value, PaO2 and PaCO2 lower, and W/D lung weight ratio, EB content, plasma concentrations of TNF-α, IL-1, MDA and NO, and NF-kB activity in the heart, lung, liver and kidney tissues higher in group CLP, SEV, and SEV2 than in group S (P < 0.05). NF-kB activity in the heart, lung, liver and kidney tissues and plasma concentrations of TNF-α, IL-1, MDA and NO were significantly lower in group SEV, than in group CLP and SEV2 ( P < 0.05 ), but no significant differences were found in the other indices between group SEV, and CLP and between group SEV1 and SEV2 ( P > 0.05). Conclusion Inhalation of 2.4% sevoflurane for 30 min 1 h after septic shock can inhibit the systemic inflammatory response slightly, but can not improve the cardiopulmonary function in rats with CLP-induced septic shock.
