A case with the diagnosis of the onset of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) with chronic granulo-matous disease (CGD) in Children′s Hospital Affiliated to Zhengzhou University in June 2016 was chosen, and the patient′s clinical data and whole treatment process were analyzed.According to the relevant literature from Chinese and foreign databases, the clinical characteristics were analyzed and summarized, principles of diagnosis and treatment for children who had the onset of IBD with CGD.This patient was a child of 1 year and 9 months old, and the initial symptoms included repeated diarrhea and bloody stools.He was diagnosed as " ulcerative colitis" in the local hospital.After admission, the neutrophil respiratory burst test was positive.The genetic analysis result suggested that the CYBB gene was mutated, thus obtaining the diagnosis of CGD.Then, he was given prophylactic antibiotic therapy and symptomatic treatment.After the 3 months of follow-up after discharge, the patient still had intermittent diarrhea and bloody stools.CGD is a rare primary immunodeficiency disease, and current treatment methods of CGD include hematopoietic stem cell transplantation and anti-infection treatment.When IBD patients have complications other than gastrointestinal symptoms, the IBD treatment is not effective, or there are suspected parents who are married to close relatives, or with the family history of IBD, CGD should be considered.

Objective To evaluate the long-term results of partial internal sphincterectomy for the treatment of internal anal sphincter achalasia in childhood. Methods The clinical,radiographic,manometrical and histochemical data of 6 cases were reviewed retrospectively. All patients had received partial internal sphincterectomy and were followed-up for 2 to 8 years. Results All patients presented with severe constipation with or without soiling. No stenosis zone of intestine could be noted in 3 patients by barium enema examination. The rectoanal inhibition reflex on rectal balloon inflation was absent in all patients. The normal acetylcholinesterase activity on rectal biopsies was demonstrated by histochemical staining. Ganglion cells within internal anal sphincter was noted in all cases. On follow-up,all patients regained regular bowel habits and are not on any laxatives. Conclusion The long term results of partial internal sphincterectomy for the treatment of internal anal sphincter achalasia in childhood are satisfactory.

Objective To investigate the effects of acupuncture on gene expression profile of neurotrophin and its receptors in cerebral cortex of neonatal rats after cerebral hypoxic-isehemic injury,and to explore the molecu- lar mechanism of acupuncture in treatment of neonatal hypoxic-ischemic encephalopathy.Methods The model of cerebral hypoxic-ischemic injury was established with 10 neonatal Sprague-Dawley(SD)rats,who were subjected to acupuncture once daily for 14 days.The animals were sacrificed on the next day of the last acupuncture and their brain cortex was sampled for examination of gene expression,using GEArray Q series neurotrophin and receptors gene array.Results After 14 days of acupuncture,it was found that 48 genes(50% of total genes on the microarray) were expressed differently between the two groups,of which 40 genes(83.3% of differently expressed genes),such as those of the brain-derived neurotrophic factor(BDNF),ciliary neurotrophic factor(CNTF),ciliary neurotrophic factor receptor(CNTFR),basic fibroblast growth factor(bFGF)and fibroblast growth factor receptor type 1 (FGFR1)were up-regulated,and 8 genes(16.7% of differently expressed genes),such as genes of neuregulin-1 (Nrg1),neuregulin-4(Nrg4)and tyrosine kinase C(TrkC)were down-regulated.Conclusion Acupuncture can regulate the expression of various genes of neurotrophin and receptors in cerebral cortex of neonatal rats after cerebral hypoxic-ischemic injury,which might be the mechanism of acupuncture facilitating the recovery of the rats from hy- poxic-ischemic encephalopathy.

Objective To investigate the feasibility and clinical effect of laparoscopic and thoracoscopic Ivor Lewis esophagectomy without an abdominal small incision.Methods Compared 80 cases underwent laparoscopic and thoracoscopic Ivor Lewis esophagectomy without an abdominal small incision with 68 patients receivesd laparoscopic and thoracoscopic Ivor Lewis esophagectomy with an abdominal small incision.The peri operative conditions and complications of the two groups were analyzed.Results There were no significant difference in the operation time [(263.3 ± 71.5) min vs (273.3 ± 73.7) min,t =-0.750,P =0.454],intraoperative blood loss [(246.9 ± 150.4) ml vs (252.9 ± 159.7) ml,t =-0.238,P =0.812],the number of lymph node dissection [(19.2 ±4.3) vs (19 ±4.5),t =0.272,P =0.786],gastrointestinal decompression time [(11 ± 3.4) d vs (11.9±3.3) d,t=-1.647,P=0.102],chest tube indwelling time [(6.6±2.7) d vs (6.3±2.6) d,t=0.544,P=0.587],postoperative hospitalization time [(13.2 ±3.4) d vs (14 ±3.4) d,t=-1.493,P=0.138] and rate of early gastric emptying dysfunction [6.25％ (5/80) vs 4.41％ (3/68),x2 =0.016,P =0.898].Comparing to patients in the small incision group,the visual analogue scale evaluation score of postoperative pain was lower in the groups without small incision (P ＜ 0.05).There were no anastomotic fistula,thoracic gastric fistula,upper gastrointestinal bleeding and death during perioperative periods.Conclusion It is safe and feasible to treat middle and lower esophageal carcinoma with laparoscopic and thoracoscopic Ivor Lewis esophagectomy without an abdominal small incision,which can further reduce abdominal trauma,relieve postoperative pain and make the abdominal incision more beautiful.

Objective:To investigate the feasibility, safety, and short-term effect of minimally invasive McKeown esophagecto-my. Methods: We conducted a retrospective evaluation of 88 patients with esophageal carcinoma who received minimally invasive esophagectomy in our center from October 2013 to April 2014. Among the 88 patients, 46 patients underwent total endoscopy McKe-own esophagectomy (TEME) and 42 patients underwent thoracoscope combined with laparotomy Mckeown esophagectomy (TLME). The clinicopathologic factors, operational factors, and postoperative complications of the two approaches were compared. Results:The two groups were similar in terms of age, sex, American Society of Anesthesiologists grade, tumor location, preoperative staging, and co-morbidity. The TEME approach was associated with a significant decrease in abdominal blood loss and postoperative pain relative to the TEME approach (P<0.05). No significant differences were found between the two groups in terms of histologic type, postoperation TNM staging, abdominal operation time, intensive care unit stay, chest tube duration, postoperative stay, the number of total lymph nodes dissected or the stations of the total lymph nodes dissected, and lymph metastasis rate (P>0.05). The total morbidity and total re-spiratory complications in the TEME group were lower than those in the TLME group (P<0.05). Incidences of pneumonia, arrhythmia, wound infection of minor complications, and pneumonia of major complications were relatively low in the TEME approach. Conclu-sion:Our TEME technique can be safely and effectively performed for cervical anastomosis during esophageal surgeries to achieve fa-vorable early outcomes.

Objective To investigate the feasibility,safety and curative effect of combined laparoscopic and thoracoscopic esophagectomy for esophageal carcinoma and gastro-esophageal anastomosis in right thoracic cavity.Methods We retrospectively evaluated 357patients with esophageal carcinoma who received minimally invasive esophagectomy(MIE) in our center between October 2011 and March 2014.Of those 357 patients,219 underwent MIILE and 138 underwent MIME.The clinicopathologic factors,operational factors,postoperative complications and postoperative recurrence were compared.Results The 2 groups were similar in terms of age,sex,American Society of Anesthesiologists grade,tumor location,preoperative staging.The MILLE approach was associated with no significant decrease in surgical blood loss.Duration of operation,chest tube duration,hospitalization expenses and postoperative stay relative to the MIME approach(P ＞ 0.05).There was no significant difference between the 2 groups in postoperative complications(P ＞0.05).The MIILE approach was associated with significantly fewer anastomotic fistula,RLN injury,anastomotic stensis than the MIME approach(P ＜0.05).Conclusion Our MIILEtechnique can be safely and effectively performed for intrathoracic anastomosis during esophageal surgeries with favorable early outcomes.

Background and purpose:High expression of excision repair cross-complementing 1 (ERCC1) is related to resistance in patients treated with platinum-containing regimens. The ERCC1 antibody 8F1 was usually used in past studies, but it was found to have no-speciifcity recently. This study aimed to investigate the predictive role of a new ERCC1 antibody 4F9 to platinum chemotherapy in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC) patients. Methods:Expression of ERCC1 was detected using antibody 4F9 by immunohistochemistry (IHC) in 72 NSCLC tissues. The relationship between the expression of ERCCl and the clinical pathological parameters, the efficacy of platinum chemotherapy and overall survival of patients were explored by statistical analysis. Results: The high expression of ERCCl protein was 55.5%in 72 cases. There was no signiifcant correlation between the ERCC1 expression with gender, age, pathological type, clinical stage and lymphatic metastasis (P>0.05). Patients with low expression of ERCC1 had signiifcantly higher response rates to platinum chemotherapy, longer median survival time and 2-years survival rate comparing with those with high expression of ERCC1 (62.5%vs 37.5%;22.9 vs 18.4 month;46.9%vs 37.5%), respectively (P<0.05). Conclusion:The expression analysis of ERCC1 using new ERCC1 antibody 4F9 by IHC method is helpful to assign chemotherapeutic regimen, and guide individual platinum chemotherapy for post-operation patients.

Objective To compare the results and safety between video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery ( VATS ) and conventional radical operation in patients with stage Ⅰ , Ⅱ esophageal cancer. Methods Retrospectively reviewed 43 patients with stage Ⅰ , Ⅱ esophageal cancer,underwent either VATS radical operation (VATS group,16 cases) or conventional radical operation (control group,27 cases ) from September 2007 to September 2009. Patient's operative characteristics and postoperative courses were compared between two groups. Results In VATS group the operation time was ( 115.6 ± 48.0) min,the peri-operative blood loss was ( 131 ± 71 ) ml,the first postoperative day chest lead quantity was (331 ± 170)ml, the time of postoperative chest tube was (7.25 ± 2.35) d,the postoperative 36 h visual analogue scale (VAS) was (3.4 ± 1.2) scores,the postoperative drainage of chest was ( 1281 ± 534) ml,the 72 h postoperative locomotor activity of right upper extremity was (5.1 ± 1.5) cm. While in control group was ( 145.6 ± 20.6)min, (292 ± 111 ) ml, (494 ± 194) ml, ( 10.00 ± 2.79 )d, (7.3 ± 1.4) scores, ( 1780 ± 731 ) ml, ( 15.6 ± 3.1 )cm respectively (P ＜ 0.01 or ＜ 0.05 ). The lymph node dissection number,the total cost of hospital between were no statistically significant differences in two groups (P ＞0.05). Conclusion Comparing with conventional radical operation, VATS radical operation for patients with stage Ⅰ , Ⅱ esophageal cancer appears to be as effective but less morbid.

Recently,the main treatment for esophageal cancer remains curative resection combined with adjuvant chemoradiotherapy.With the application of minimally invasive esophagectomy (MIE) in the surgical treatment in recent years,patients with esophageal cancer who received MIE are proved to have less postoperative complications,better quality of life,and better surgical effect.However,different operation methods of MIE have different advantages and disadvantages,that makes the clinical promotion of MIE need further clinical experience,surgical techniques and procedures.The long-term effect of MIE remains to be further verification.

To investigate the feasibility, safety and short-term efficacy of modified inflatable video-mediastinoscopy in patients with early esophageal cancer. Methods The study retrospectively evaluated 54 patients with cT1N0M0 esophageal carcinoma who received minimally invasive esophagectomy in the First Affiliated Hospital of University of Science and Technology of China between July 2017 and June 2018. Of those patients, 23 patients underwent modified inflatable video-assisted mediastinoscopic transhiatal esophagectomy(MIVMTS) and 31 underwent minimally invasive McKeown esophagectomy (MIME). The clinicopathologic factors, operational factors, postoperative complications and lymph node dissection of patients were compared. Results There was no significant difference in clinicopathological data between the MIVMTS group and MIME group. The incidence of total minor postoperative complications, pulmonary infection of minior postoperative complications, total postoperative complications and total pulmonary complications in MIME group were higher than MIVMTS group. The incidence of recurrent laryngeal nerve injury, arrhythmia and air leaks in minior and pulmonary infection, chylothorax, anastomotic fistula in major postoprative complications were no different in the two groups with P >0. 05. The intraoperative blood loss, duration of surgery and postoperative thoracic drainage fluid volume of MIVMTS group were less than MIME group, the difference was statistically significant. The postoperative hospitalization of the two groups have no statistics significance(P >0. 05). There were no significant difference in the lymph node dessection of the left laryngeal recurrent nerve lymph nodes, paraesophageal lymph nodes, subcarinal lymph nodes and superior phrenic lymph node of the two groups. However, when compared with MIVMTS group, the MIME group have advantage in the right laryngeal recurrent para-nerve lymph node dissection. Conclusion MIVMTS can be safely and effectively performed for early esophageal cancer with favorable short-term efficacy.
