SPSS 10.0 was used in statistical analysis. Results The concentrations of amylase, TNF?, TXB-2 in the ANP-treated groups were significantly lower than those of ANP group (P

Objective To explore the classification and surgical management of pancreatic duct stones.Methods The clinical data of 54 patients with pancreatic duct stones who were admitted to the People's Hospital of Hunan Province from June 1994 to November 2009 were retrospectively analyzed. Stones were found in the head of the pancreas (type Ⅰ ) in 31 patients, in the body and tail of the pancreas (type Ⅱ ) in 7 patients, and in all the pancreas (type Ⅲ ) in 16 patients. According to the types of the pancreatic duct stones, ten patients (6 with type Ⅰ , two with type Ⅱ and two with type Ⅲ pancreatic duct stones) received opening of the main pancreatic duct + pancreaticojejunostomy or pancreaticogastrostomy ( group A). Twenty-four patients ( 16 with type Ⅰ and eight with type Ⅲ pancreatic duct stones) received pancreaticoduodenectomy (group B). Fifteen patients (nine with type Ⅰ and six with type Ⅱ pancreatic duct stones) received subtotal resection of pancreatic head preserving duodenum (group C). Five patients with type Ⅱ pancreatic duct stones received resection of the body and tail of the pancreas and the spleen (group D). All data were analyzed using the t test. Results The mean operation time, blood loss, length of postoperative stay and hospital charges of group A were (2.2 ± 1.2)hours,( 127 ±24)ml,( 11.4 ±4.3) days and (3.24 ± 1.15 ) × 104 yuan, respectively. Five out of nine patients who were followed up had stone recurrence. The mean operation time, blood loss, length of postoperative stay and hospital charges of group B were (7.6 ± 1.1 ) hours, (409 ± 37 ) ml, ( 18.9 ± 2.5 ) days and (7.93 ± 1.35 ) × 104 yuan, respectively.No stone recurrence was detected in the 21 patients who were followed up. The mean operation time, blood loss,length of postoperative stay and hospital charges of group C were (4. 1 ± 0.7 ) hours, ( 156 ± 63 ) ml, ( 10.3 ±2.1 )days and (4. 12 ± 1.22) × 104 yuan, respectively. No stone recurrence was detected in the 15 patients who were followed up. The mean operation time, blood loss, length of postoperative stay and hospital charges of group D were (3.3 ± 1.4) hours, ( 185 ± 36 ) ml, ( 9.3 ± 2.0) days and ( 3.22 ± 1.05 ) × 104 yuan, respectively. No complication was detected after the operation, and no stone recurrence was detected in the three patients who were followed up. There were significant differences in the mean operation time, blood loss, length of postoperative stay and hospital charges between patients with type Ⅰ and Ⅲ pancreatic duct stones who received pancreaticoduodenectomy and subtotal resection of pancreatic head preserving duodenum (t = 12. 143, 14. 099, 11. 550, 9. 103,P < 0.05 ). Conclusions Classification of the pancreatic duct stones is important for choosing the proper surgical procedure. Subtotal resection of pancreatic head preserving duodenum is ideal for the treatment of patients with type Ⅰ or Ⅱ pancreatic duct stones.

BACKGROUND:Severe abdominal infection after liver transplantation is the serious perioperative complications in liver transplant recipients, and it is one of the major reasons of death or loss of liver function. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the etiology, diagnosis and treatment of severe abdominal infection after orthotopic liver transplantation. METHODS:The clinical data of 186 cases of abdominal infection that received orthotopic liver transplantation between March 2004 and November 2011 were retrospectively analyzed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Among the 186 patients, 16 patients had severe abdominal infection. Among the 16 patients, five patients had the infection due to the biliary anastomotic leakage caused large effusion in the gap under liver;10 patients had infection due to the peripheral liver massive hematocele caused by liver transplant surgery wounds extensive bleeding;one patient had injection due to left subphrenic large effusion caused by lower esophagus fistula after transplantation. Twelve patients had second operation within 3 days after diagnose, and there was no death;four patients had second operation after diagnosed for 3 days, one patient dead due to multiple organ failure at 21 days after liver transplantation and 5 days after second surgery. The results show that severe abdominal infection after liver transplantation is one of the serious perioperative complications in liver transplant recipients, and active recovery, multiple organ support and removal of infected lesions with control ing surgery as wel as the adequate drainage and other comprehensive treatment measures are the key points for the treatment of severe abdominal infection after liver transplantation.

Objective To compare the efficacies of anatomic and nonanatomic mesohepatectomy for central type hepatocellular carcinoma.Methods The clinical data of 85 patients with central type hepatocellular carcinoma undergoing hepatectomies were retrospectively analysed.36 patients underwent anatomic mesohepatectomy and the other 49 patients did nonanatomic mesohepatectomy.The operative time,intraoperative blood loss,incidence of postoperative complications,postoperative drainage volume,time to flatus and length of postoperative stay between the two groups were compared.Results There were no significant differences in the general condition,organ function,tumor size and location between the two groups before operation (P ＞ 0.05).The intraoperative blood loss,incidence of postoperative complications,drainage volume were significantly less but the operative time longer in anatomic mesohepatectomy group than nonanatomic hepatectomy group (P ＜ 0.05).No differences between the two groups were found in regard to the time for flatus and length of postoperative hospital stay (P ＞ 0.05).Tumor recurrence developed in 7 cases in group A and 20 cases in group B (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Anatomic mesohepatectomy has the advantages of less surgical trauma,less exudation and complications in patients with central type hepatocellular carcinoma.

Objective To investigate the clinical effects of laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD) for distal cholangiocarcinoma.Methods The retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted.The clinicopathological data of 37 patients who underwent LPD for distal cholangiocarcinoma in the Hunan Provincial People's Hospital between January 2013 and November 2016 were collected.LPD for distal cholangiocarcinoma was performed using the "en-block" procedure.According to the principle of "one axis,two planes and four zones",anatomy used posterior approach,anterior approach and medial approach,lymph node dissection was performed from carotid sheath outside,and en bloc specimens were resected.Observation indicators:(1) surgical and postoperative recovery situations;(2) postoperative pathological examination;(3) follow-up and survival situations.Follow-up using outpatient examination was performed to detect the patients' recurrence-free survival up to November 2017.Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as (x)±s.The survival curve and rate were drawn and calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method.Results (1) Surgical and postoperative recovery situations:all the 37 patients underwent successful LPD,without conversion to open surgery and perioperative death.The operation time,volume of blood loss and case with intraoperative blood transfusion were (326 ± 55) minutes,(176± 39)mL and 1,respectively.The time to initial exsufflation and time for diet intake were respectively (4.5± 1.6)days and (5.3±2.7)days.Of 37 patients,14 had postoperative complications,including 8 with pancreatic fistula (6 with biochemical fistula and 2 with grade B pancreatic fistula),1 with biliary fistula,3 with postoperative bleeding (2 with intra-abdominal bleeding and 1 with gastrointestinal anastomosis bleeding),2 with delayed gastric emptying (grage A),2 with intra-abdominal infection and 2 with pulmonary infection;the same patients can merge multiple complications.Three patients were in Clavien-Dindo classification ≥ Ⅲ.One patient received reoperation and other patients were improved by symptomatic treatment.Duration of hospital stay of 37 patients was 13.5 days (range,8.0-33.0 days).Eight patients underwent adjuvant chemotherapy of 4-6 cycles by taking orally tegafur or gemcitabine with cisplatin.(2) Postoperative pathological examination:tumor diameter and pancreatic duct diameter of 37 patients were (2.1±1.1)cm and (2.5±1.2) mm,respectively.Of 37 patients,9,13 and 15 were respectively detected in high-differentiated,moderate-differentiated and lowdifferentiated adenocarcinoma.Surgical margins:35 patients received R0 resection and 2 received R1 resection.Number of lymph node dissected,cases with lymph node metastasis and number of positive lymph nodes were respectively 18.5±4.9,16 and 1.7± 1.4.Analysis of lymph node metastasis location showed that the positive rates in 8a,12,13,14 and 17 groups lymph nodes were respectively 5.4％ (2/37),18.9％ (7/37),21.6％ (8/37),8.1％ (3/37) and 10.8％ (4/37);Perineural invasion (PNI),lymphovascular invasion (LVI),pancreatic invasion and duodenal invasion were identified in 14,9,16 and 6 patients,respectively.TNM stage:stage 0,Ⅰ A,Ⅰ B,ⅡA and Ⅱ B were respectively detected in 1,3,5,12 and 16 patients.(3) Follow-up situation:of 37 patients,36 were followed up for 6-45 months,with a median time of 26 months.The median recurrence-free survival time,1-and 3-year recurrence-free survival rates were respectively 28 months,80.6％ and 42.2％.Conclusion LPD is safe and effective for distal cholangiocarcinoma,and "en-block" resection not only helps to optimize the process of LPD for distal cholangiocarcinoma,but also has a significant effect on R0 resection and lymph node dissection.

Objective:To study the safety and feasibility of anatomic left hemihepatectomy via cranial-dorsal approach in the treatment of left hepatolithiasis.Methods:Clinical data of 47 patients with left intrahepatic bile duct stones who underwent cranial-dorsal approach laparoscopic anatomic left hemihepatectomy in Hunan People's Hospital from October 2016 to June 2022 were retrospectively analyzed, including 15 males and 32 females, aged (56.45±1.37) years old. The operative time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative liver function and complications were analyzed. Patients were followed up by telephone and outpatient review.Results:All 47 patients successfully underwent laparoscopic surgery without conversion. The median operative time was 260 (range, 160-440) min. The median intraoperative blood loss was 100 ml (range, 20-400 ml). The total bilirubin, alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels were 15.7 (11.7, 21.9) μmol/L, 126.6 (91.7, 168.5) U/L, and 151.1 (98.0, 212.4) U/L on postoperative day (POD) 1, respectively, and decreased to 12.6 (9.6, 16.2) μmol/L, 97.9 (60.7, 156.9) U/L, 54.2 (40.0, 104.1) U/L on POD 3, respectively. The median postoperative hospital stay was 7 (range, 4-24) d. Postoperative abdominal effusion and infection occurred in one patient, and the complication rate was 2.1% (1/47). Postoperative CT review found residual stones in common bile duct in one patient [2.1% (1/47)]. No stone recurrence or death occurred during postoperative follow-up.Conclusion:Anatomic left hemihepatectomy via cranial-dorsal approach is a safe and feasible surgery for the treatment of left hepatolithiasis.
