Clinical Medicine of China 2011;27(6):615-617
Objective To evaluate the clinical curative effect and safety of the stapled transanal rectal resection (STARR) in treatment rectocele. Methods Ninety-two cases suffering from rectocele were treated with rectal inferior extremity half circum mucosectomy by PPH stapler. The operative time, operation effect,complication and recurrence rate were studied. Results All cases were operated successfully. The mean operation time was (25 ±8)min,The totol effective rate was 100% ,postoperative complication included inferior abdomen discomfort and pain (32 cases,34. 7%),urinary retention(9 cases,9. 8%) ,anal anus pain(5 cases, 5. 4%) and bleeding(3 cases,3. 3%). The average length of postoperative stay was 1-5 days (average[2. 2 ±0. 9]days). The follow-up period ranged from 4 to 40 months and no recurrence was observed. Conclusion The stapled transanal rectal resection (STARR) has several advantages,such as safety,rapid recovery,good recent therapeutic effect and lower recurrence in treating rectocele.

Objective To study the clinical values of MRI and B-ultrasonography in the diagnoses of gynecological pelvic tumors.Methods From September 2014 to September 2016,130 patients with gynecological pelvic tumors were randomly selected and examined by MRI and B-ultrasonography respectively.MRI and B-uhrasonography were compared on the misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis rate,detection rate of malignant tumor as well as diagnosis coincidence rate.Results The detection rate of malignant tumor,the misdiagnosis and missed diagnosis rate and the diagnosis coincidence rate of MRI were 96.15%,10.77% and 89.23% respectively,those of B-ultrasonography were 76.92%,24.62% and 75.38% respectively,and there were significant differences between all the rates of MRI and B-ultrasonography (P<0.05).Conclusion MRI diagnoses pelvic tumors effectively,while behaves not so well as B-ultrasonography in cost,timeliness and scan time.

Population pharmacokinetics of vancomycin (VAN) in the Chinese patients was described by using nonlinear mixed-effects modeling (NONMEM). 619 VAN serum concentrations data from 260 patients including 177 males and 83 females were collected separately from two centers. A one-compartment model was used to describe this sparse data. No significant difference was observed between two center datasets by introducing SID covariate. The final model was as CL= (θ (base0+ θ(max) x(1 -e(-θ(Age)(Age/72) and V = θ x θ (Age)(Age/72). The creatinine clearance (CL(Cr)) and Age were identified as the most significant covariate in the final model. Typical values of clearance (CL) and volume of distribution (V) in the final model were 2.91 L x h(-1) and 54.76 L, respectively. Internal model validation by Bootstrap and NPDE were performed to evaluate the robustness and prediction of the final model. The median and 95% confidence intervals for the final model parameters were based on 1000 Bootstraps. External model evaluation was conducted using an independent dataset that consisted of 34 patients to predict model performance. Pharmacodynamic assessment for VAN by AUC (0-24 h) to MIC ratios of over 400 was considered to be the best to predict treatment outcomes for patients. AUC (0-24 h) was calculated by clearance based on the above population model. The results indicate that the conventional dosing regimen probably being suboptimal concentrations in aged patients. The approach via population pharmacokinetic of VAN combined with the relationship of MIC, Age, CL(Cr) and AUC(0-24 h)/MIC can predict the rational dose for attaining efficacy.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the feasibility of endoscopic metallic stent as a bridge to elective laparoscopic surgery in patients with malignant colorectal obstruction.
METHODSClinical data of 63 patients with obstructive colorectal cancer who underwent endoscopic metallic stent insertion under radiologic monitoring at the Longyan First Hospital between June 2012 and August 2016 were analyzed retrospectively. After complete remission of the obstruction, all the patients received multi-disciplinary team (MDT) evaluation to make the further treatment strategy. The subsequent surgery included open and laparoscopic procedures, and the short-term efficacy of these two procedures was compared.
RESULTSThere were 30 male and 33 female patients with age of 30 to 90 (mean 67) years, including 3 cases of ascending colon cancer, 4 cases of transverse colon cancer, 12 cases of descending colon cancer, 26 cases of sigmoid cancer, and 19 cases of rectal cancer. Only one patient (1.6%) developed sigmoid perforation at 3 hours after stent placement, and underwent emergency laparotomy with Hartmann procedure. The remaining 62 patients had bowel movements. After MDT evaluation, 10 patients (16.1%) were treated with palliative chemotherapy because they were unfit for surgery or for diffuse distant metastases. A total of 52 patients underwent radical surgery after a mean interval from stent insertion of 10 days (7-20 days), including open (n=18, including two cases with conversion to open surgery) and laparoscopy (n=34). The baseline data between open and laparoscopy groups were similar (all P>0.05). Primary anastomosis was successfully performed in all the patients without preventive stoma. Compared to open group, laparoscopy group had faster bowel movement [(2.88±1.06) d vs. (4.05±2.43) d, P=0.022] and shorter postoperative hospital stay [(7.85±0.96) d vs. (9.82±4.41) d, P=0.002]. There were no statistically significant differences in operative time, intraoperative blood loss, number of harvested lymph node, and postoperative complication rate between two groups (all P>0.05).
CONCLUSIONSEndoscopic metallic stent placement can effectively remove malignant colorectal obstruction, and thus enables surgeons to perform an elective radical surgery, avoiding emergency surgery with stoma and unnecessary surgery for patients with distant metastasis. In the era of enhanced recovery after surgery, the endoscopic metallic stent placement combined with laparoscopic procedures, as a less invasive alternative, is effective and safe.
