1.Problems in radical resection of hilar cholangiocarcinoma
Chinese Journal of Digestive Surgery 2010;9(3):174-176
Currently, radical resection offers hilar cholangiocarcinoma patients the only chance for cure and long-term survival. Preoperative biliary drainage is necessary to reduce the risk of liver failure when total bilirubin levels are greater than 300 μmol/L, especially in patients who are about to receive hemihepatectomy or extended hemihepatectomy. Caudate lobectomy (segment I) should be performed as an elemental procedure for radical resection of hilar cholangiocarcinoma. For patients with Bismuth type Ⅲor Ⅳ, extended hemihepatectomy combined with caudate lobectomy, and if necessary, preoperative portal vein embolization, vascular resection and reconstruction, is needed to achieve tumor-free margins. Segment Ⅰ, Ⅳ,Ⅴ and Ⅷ resection is recommended to prevent postoperative liver dys-function if the volume of the remaining segments is insufficient. Resection of segment Ⅳ b and partial Ⅴ segment combined with segment Ⅰ can lessen the surgical trauma, and this is beneficial to most patients with Bismuth type Ⅱ and some Chinese patients with Bismuth type Ⅲor Ⅳ. Resection of lymph nodes 5, 6, 7, 8, 9, 12 and 13 is considered to be essential for radical resec-tion of hilar cholangiocarcinoma. Adjuvant chemotherapy and radiotherapy may prolong the long-time survival after resection.

3.Related issues in repair of bile duct injury and traumatic biliary stricture
Journal of Clinical Hepatology 2017;33(2):256-259
Inappropriate treatment of bile duct injury and traumatic biliary stricture may cause serious consequences such as recurrent cholangitis,formation of hepatolithiasis,and biliary cirrhosis.This article elaborates on the influencing factors for the effect of the repair of bile duct injtry and traumatic biliary stricture,repair principles,timing of repair or reconstruction,and related methods and techniques.It is pointed out that if there is no significant local infection and the bile duct wall defect is < 2 cm,end-to-end anastomosis should be used for repair;if the bile duct wall defect is > 2 cm,Roux-en-Y hepaticojejunostomy should be used for reconstruction.If the upper wall of the bile duct had a large defect and the lower wall has an integral structure,pedicled umbilical vein graft,pedicled jejunal wall seromuscular flap,or gastric wall seromuscular flap should be used for repair.The patients with severe congestion and edema at the site of injury should be treated with sufficient external drainage of the injured bile duct and then selective repair or reconstruction.Patients with hepatic duct stenosis in the liver lobe or hepatic segments and liver tissue atrophy can be treated with hepalobectomy or segmental hepatectomy.The key to successful repair is exposure and removal of high hilar bile duct stricture,while segmental hepatectomy of the Ⅳb segment can fully expose the left and right hepatic pedicles and help with the incision of the left and right hepatic ducts and secondary hepatic ducts,and therefore,it is a good method for exposing high bile duct stricture.

Objective To investigate the apoptosis of human bile duct carcinoma cell induced by Apoptin gene transfection in vitro. Methods Apoptin gene was amplified by polymerase chain reaction (PCR) and then inserted into pAdtrack-CMV containing green fluorescent protein gene through T4 DNA ligase. The reconstructed plasmids were identified by enzyme digestion and sequencing. Apoptin expression vector was transfected into human bile duct carcinoma cell line QBC_(939). The apoptosis of human bile duct carcinoma cell induced by Apoptin gene was detected by TUNEL. Results Reconstructed pAdtrack-CMV containing Apoptin gene was obtained successfully. TUNEL test showed that there was significant difference in apoptosis index between Apoptin gene transfection and the control group (P

Objective To investigate factors influencing the incidence of massive bleeding caused by stress ulcer in severe acute pancreatiti s (SAP) and explore the effectiveness of measures for its prevention and treatme nt. Methods Clinical data of 121 pat ients with SAP were reviewed retrospectively in our center between 1993 and 1998 .The incidence of massive bleeding caused by stress ulcer in SAP, its affecting factors and the results of prevention and treatment were evaluated. Results The incidence of stress ulcer massive b leeding in SAP was 11.6% (14/121). The risk factors included the age of patient s, the severity of the disease, concomitant bile duct lithiasis obstruction, pan creatic abscess, pseudocyst and a history of surgical debridement and drainage. Five out of 6 patients treated conservatively died, while only 1 out of 8 treate d surgically died (P<0.01). Conclusion Massive bleeding stress ulcer most often occurred in elderly SAP p atients, especially those of biliogenic, with pancreatic abscess and pseudocyst. Somatostain administration effectively decreases the incidence of bleeding. E mergency operation is mandatory when conservative measures fail to stop the bl eeding.
