Objective: Study some red cell blood group antigens and allo-antibodies of blood donors and surgical patients at Viet Duc Hospital order to contribute to safe blood transfusion. Subjects: 122 blood donors were tested antigens of red blood cell: Rh, Kell, Duffy, Lutheran, MNS, Lewis, P... with anti-serum developed by Gamma Company, 393 blood donors were undergone Mill test with anti-Mia, 938 blood donors and 1036 surgical patients were tested by Polybrene method for allo-antibody. Results: frequencies of red blood cell antigens out of ABO system of 122 blood donors were listed in Table 1. Prevalence of Mill antigen in 393 blood donors was 9.9%. Frequencies of allo-antibody were 0% and <1% in 938 blood donors group and surgical patients group, respectively. Among 93 surgical patients had multi-transfusion, frequency of allo-antibody was 4.3%

Background: s/Aims: Pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) is the only radical treatment for periampullary malignancies. Superior mesenteric artery (SMA) first approach combined with total meso-pancreas (MP) excision was conducted to improve the oncological results.There has not been any previous research of a technique that combines the SMA first approach and total MP excision with a detailed description of the MP macroscopical shape. Methods: We prospectively assessed 77 patients with periampullary malignancies between October 2020 and March 2022 (18 months). All patients had undergone PD with SMA first approach combined total MP excision. The perioperative indications, clinical data, intra-operative index, R0 resection rate of postoperative pathological specimens (especially mesopancreatic margin), postoperative complications, and follow-up results were evaluated. Results: The median operative time was 289.6 min (178−540 min), the median intraoperative blood loss was 209 mL (30−1,600 mL).Microscopically, there were 19 (24.7%) cases with metastatic MP, and five cases (6.5%) with R1-resection of the MP. The number of lymph nodes (LNs) harvested and metastatic LNs were 27.2 (maximum was 74) and 1.8 (maximum was 16), respectively. Some (46.8%) patients had pancreatic fistula, but mostly in grade A, with 7 patients (9.1%) who required re-operations. Some 18.2% of cases developed postoperative refractory diarrhea. The rate of in-hospital mortality was 1.3%. Conclusions The PD with SMA first approach combined TMpE for periampullary malignancies was effective in achieving superior oncological statistics (rate of MP R0-resection and number of total resected LNs) with non-inferior short-term outcomes. It is necessary to evaluate survival outcomes with long-term follow-up.
