Objective:To investigate the recent and long-term efficacy and safety of pancreaticoduodenectomy for pancreatic head carcinoma and periampullary carcinoma.Methods:82 cases of pancreatic cancer combined with periampullary carcinoma patients admit ted in our hospital from August 2009 to June 2013 were selected and randomly divided into the control group and the observation group With 41 patients in each group.The control group received palliative surgical treatment,while the observation group underwent pancreatoduodenectomy.The operation time,hospitalization time,intraoperative bleeding volume and the incidence of complications,1,2,3-year survival rate and the recurrence rate at 1 year after operation and tumor eradication rate were compared between twp groups.Results:The amount of bleeding,operation time of observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group(P＜0.01),no signif icant difference was found in the hospitalization time between the two groups(P＞0.05);the incidence of complications in the observation group (41.46％) was significantly higher than the control group (22.96％)(P=0.03);the 2-year and 3-year survival rate of observation group were significantly higher than those of the control group (P＜0.05),the recurrence rate at 1 year after operation of observation group was significantly lower than that of the control group (P=0.04),the tumor eradication rate was significantly higher in the observation group than that of the control group (P=0.04).Conclusion:Though pancreaticoduodenectomy could prolong the operation time,increase the risk of bleeding and complications for pancreatic head carcinoma and periampullary carcinoma,but it could effectively reduce the possibility of recurrence after operation,significantly improve the long-term survival rate.

Objective To investigate the effect of preoperative percutaneous dilatational trache-otomy (PDT)in oral and maxillofacial surgery anesthesia versus traditional surgical tracheotomy (ST).Methods General data,vital signs,operation time,anesthetics,the amount of bleeding and complications during the procedure were analyzed after reviewing the clinical data of 124 cases under-going radical correction of oral and maxillofacial tumor plus flap transferring and repairing and trache-otomy during May 2013 to May 201 5.Results A total of 124 cases were divided into two groups:PDT group (group P,n =41)and ST group (group S,n =83).There was no significant difference of general data between the two groups.The incision length and operation time were significantly shorter and the amount of bleeding was remarkably lower in group P than those in group S (P <0.05),while the incidence of complications was not significantly different between the two groups.Conclusion PDT has more advantages over traditional ST and is a better airway approach in oral and maxillofacial surgery.

Objective: To evaluate the impact of ultra-high-molecular-weight polyethylene (UHMWPE)-Ribbond fibers, when combined with different restorative materials, on fracture resistance and marginal adaptation of isolated primary molar defects, to provide a reference for clinical practice. Methods: This study was approved by the Ethics Review Committee. A total of 72 extracted primary molars with complete crowns were collected, and 66 primary molars were randomly assigned as experimental groups for the fracture resistance and microleakage tests. The molars were divided into six groups (n = 11) based on the type of restorative materials and the application of Ribbond fibers: Group A1, 3M Filtek Z250 + Ribbond; Group A2, 3M Filtek Z250; Group B1, Beautifil II LS + Ribbond; Group B2, Beautifil II LS; Group C1, 3M Filtek Bulk Fill + Ribbond; and Group C2, 3M Filtek Bulk Fill. Groups A1, B1 and C1 received the fiber-reinforcing technique, whereas Groups A2, B2 and C2 received the direct restorative technique; the remainings were in Group D (blank control group), which did not receive treatment for the fracture resistance test. The fracture resistance test was divided into six experimental groups and one blank control group (n = 6). Primary molar teeth in each experimental group were prepared with Class II cavities and filled. The fracture load of all samples was detected, and the fracture mode was analyzed after thermal cycling. The microleakage test was divided into six experimental groups, with five in each group. Class I cavities with a diameter of 3 mm and depth of 2.5 mm were prepared within the mesial and distal marginal ridges on the occlusal surface and filled for primary molars in each group. Marginal microleakage was assessed after thermal cycling. Results: The fracture resistance test results showed that the fracture resistance in groups that received the fiber-reinforcing technique was greater than that in groups that received the direct restorative technique: Group A1>Group A2, Group B1>Group B2, Group C1>Group C2 (P<0.05). The application of Ribbond fibers increased fracture resistance to all tested restorative materials by 37.08% to 39.34%. The proportion of tooth frac-ture decreased significantly in groups A1, C1 compared with A2, C2, with a significant increase in the occurrence rate of “Repairable” (P<0.05). The fracture resistance in Group A1 was significantly greater than that in Group B1 and Group C1 (P<0.05). The marginal microleakage test results showed that the microleakage depth in groups that received the fiber-reinforcing technique was smaller than that in groups that received the direct restorative technique: Group A1Conclusion The application of Ribbond fibers combined with various restorative materials could enhance fracture resistance and diminish the microleakage depth to improve marginal adaptation.
