Objective To investigate the diagnosis and treatment of obstructive jaundice (OJ) caused by hepatocellular cacinoma (HCC) invasion to bile duct. Methods The diagnosis and treatment of 16 cases of OJ caused by HCC in our hospital from January 1989 to December 1998 were retrospectively analysed. Results Correct diagnosis was made in 2 cases and misdiagnosis in 14 cases preoperatively. 14 cases were operated on, including hepatectomy, enucleation of the tumor in the common bile duct (CBD) and T tube drainage in 2 cases; enucleation of the tumor in CBD and internal stent of T tube drainage in 11 cases; tumor biopsy and T tube drainage in 2 cases; one case died without operation. 15 cases were followed-up for 1 to 14 months postoperatively. The results demonstrated that 14 patients died within 6 months, and only 1 case remained alive for 14 months after operation. Conclusions The correct diagnosis of this disease could be made for the patients with jaundice accompanied with positive of HbsAg and AFP, local lesions in the liver and the dilated bile duct. B-US, CT, PTC and ERCP are the main examination methods for the diagnosis. The best treatment of this kind of HCC is to remove the hepatic tumor and to recanalize the affected bile ducts.

Objective To study the methods for diagnosis and treatment of insulinoma.Methods The clinical data of 120 patients with insulinoma who had been admitted to our hospital in the last 40 years were retrospectively reviewed.Results Fasting blood glucose values were less than 2.75 mmol/L in all the patients.Fasting serum insulin values in 75 patients were higher than 25 ?U/mL,and the average was (65 ?6.0)?U/mL.Before operation,tumor was detected in 2 of 60 patients by ultrasound scan,and in 10 of 50 by CT. Among 18 patients who had intra-operative B-ultrasound examination, 16 positive cases were verified by intraoperative exploration; and one case the tumor was not palpable but was found by intraoperative B-ultrasound examination.The operations included enucleation of insulinoma(70 patients),insulinoma resection and distal resection of the pancreas(44),distal resection of the pancreas(4),and biopsy(2).The low blood glucose symptoms disappeared after the first operation in 111 of the 112 patients who had benign tumor.One case with benign tumor was cured by a second operation.Twenty patients developed pancreatic fistula after tumor enacleation, of them,14 healed uneventfully after drainage,5 were cured by operation,and 1 died of peritoneal infection.Conclusions Preoperative localization of insulinomas is difficult. Intraoperative exploration and ultrasound scan are the chief methods for the localization of insulinoma.Enucleation of insulinoma should be selected for benign tumor. Resections of the pancreatic body and tail is required for large,deep or multiple tumors.

Objective To investigate the causes,prevention and management principles of postoperative recurrence of Budd Chiari syndrome(BCS).Methods The clinical data of 223 postoperative recurrence BCS patients were analyzed retrospectively,including type Ia in 66 cases,type Ib in 48 cases,type II in 57 cases , type IIIa in 28 cases,and type IIIb in 24 cases. Of them,36 patients underwent two or more operations .Results Secondary operations were all successful.No patient died in the perioperative period. One hundred and eighty two patients were followed up for 6 months to 10 years.In 89.6% of the patients,the results were successful,but the recurrence rate after the reoperation was 6.0%,and 8 patients died postoperatively .Conclusions The main recurrent causes are that indications are not correctly selected and the operative technique is not correct. Correct classification,reasonable selection of the operation method, and adopting an interruptive,matress,and eversive suture for blood vessels anastomosis in the operation are important to prevent the recurrence of BCS.

Objective To summarize the experience in diagnosis and treatment for solid-pseudopapillary tumors of the pancreas (SPT). Methods A retrospective clinical analysis about clinical, imaging and pathologic data was made on 16 cases of SPT admitted from January 2005 to December 2009. Results Five had SPT in the head of the pancreas, 5 in the body of the pancreas, 6 in the tail of the pancreas. The first symptom was intermittent epigastric pain ( n = 7), abdominal aponia mass ( n = 3), Pancreatic tumor found by chance (n =4), weight loss (n =2). Solid and Solid-cystic masses of low echo were found in US. Masses of low density in pancreas were found on CT scan, while irregular enhancement appeared in the circumference of all tumors in enhanced CT scan sequences. Tumor markers in patients' erum were all negative.9 patients underwent distal pancreatectomy and spleen resection, including 1 patient also underwent left hemicolectomy. Local excision of tumor was performed in 4 cases. Pancreatic local excision and pancreaticojejunostomy were performed in 3 cases. 14 cases were followed up with an period of from 3 to 48 months. No evidence of relapses and metastasis in these cases was found. Conclusion SPT primarily affects young women, and it may be located in any part of pancreas. Surgical resection is recommended as the treatment of choice. The prognosis is good.
