ObjectiveTo analyze the short-term efficacy of mastoscopic axillary lymph node dissection for the patients with early breast cancer who undergo breast-conserving surgery.MethodsThirty patients who met the standard of breast-conserving surgery were divided into two groups by random digits table with 15 cases each.All of these patients underwent breast-conserving surgery,then study group underwent mastoscopic axillary lymph node dissection while control group underwent open technique.The short-term efficacy was observed and compared between two groups.ResultsThe operation time in study group [(88.0 ± 18.0) min] was longer than those in control group [(68.0 ± 12.5) min] with significant difference (P =0.001 ).The incidence of upper extremity edema [ 6.7％ ( 1/15 ) ] and intercostobrachial nerve injury (0) in study group was lower than those in control group[60.0％(9/15),40.0％(6/15) ] with significant difference(P =0.002,0.022).There was no significant difference in blood loss,nodes harvest,total drainage volume and residual cancer cells between two groups [ ( 18.0 ± 12.2) ml vs.(21.3 ± 9.0) ml; 14.6 ±5.0 vs.16.4 ±3.6; (87.9 ±25.1) ml vs.(86.3 ±13.8) ml;6.7％(1/15) vs.13.3％(2/15)] (P ＞0.05).ConclusionsMastoscopic axillary lymph node dissection has the similar nodes harvest with open technique.The incidence of adverse reaction is lower,and the short-term effect is better.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of surgical treatment of concealed penis based on the idea of flap transfer in the treatment of hypospadias.Methods:Retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of children with concealed penis admitted to the Urology Department of Chengdu Second People’s Hospital and Department of Pediatric Surgery at Children’s Medical Center of Sichuan Provincial People’s Hospital, from July 2017 to July 2021. The control group used the traditional surgical method and the experimental group used a modified surgical approach based on the idea of flap transfer in the treatment of hypospadias. Short-term complications such as flap ischemia, edema, and skin dehiscence were statistically analyzed in the two groups, as well as the Boemers rating of penile appearance (good, general, poor), Vancouver scar scale (VSS) (mild, moderate, severe), overall penis shape (tower, cylindrical, inverted tower) at 6 months after surgery. Count data were analyzed using the Chi-square test.Results:298 children, aged 2.5 to 13.7 years, with a mean age of 6.4 years, were enrolled in the study. 103 children were in the control group, and 195 children were in the experimental group. All enrolled patients were operated successfully in the first stage and were discharged 3-4 days after the operation, with an average recovery time of 3-4 weeks. After a follow-up of more than 6 months, in the control group, 2 cases (1.9%) of flap ischemia and 3 cases (2.9%) of skin dehiscence occurred after surgery. Two children (1.0%) in the experimental group had skin dehiscence after surgery, and the difference in the recent complication rate between the two groups was not significant [4.9%(5/103) vs. 1.0%(2/195), P>0.05]. The proportion of Boemers rated"good"in the experimental group was higher than that in the control group [93.3% (182/195) vs. 71.8% (74/103), P<0.01]. The proportion of moderate to severe scarring assessed by VSS was lower in the experimental group than in the control group [6.2% (12/195) vs. 26.2% (27/103), P<0.01]. The proportion of the overall penis shape of the penis close to the cylindrical shape of the normal penis in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group [81.5% (159/195) vs. 60.2% (62/103), P<0.01]. Conclusion:Compared with the traditional surgical method, the modified surgical approach based on the idea of flap transfer in the treatment of hypospadias attaches more importance to the overall planning of the flap and the tension distribution of the fascial layer, which can be more effective to solve the problem of insufficient coverage of the concealed penile skin and reduce postoperative scar formation. Moreover, the appearance of the external genitalia is natural and closer to normal, the surgical effect is exact, and the long-term postoperative complications are lower.
