Objective To investigate the effectiveness of surgical resection for metastatic liver cancer in patients of gastric carcinoma, and evaluate the prognosis. Methods Clinical data of 24 gastric cancer cases undergoing hepatectomy for hepatic metastatic tumor were collected retrospectively. There were 18 cases of synchronous resection and 6 cases of heterochronous resection. The prognostic values of clinicopathological factors were assessed by univariate and multivariate analyses. Results Postoperatively all cases were followed up until the death of the patietns. Counting from the time of liver resection the 1-,3- and 5-year survival rate was 67%, 21% and 13% respectively. Univariate analysis showed lymph node involved, tumor size of hepatic metastases, vascular invasion and R0 margin as significant prognostic factors;Multivariate analysis indicated that tumor size of hepatic metastases and vascular invasion were independent prognostic factors influencing the survival. Conclusion These results suggest that for patients with liver metastasia from gastric cancer, better prognosis can be obtained by surgical treatment.

Objective To study the effect of different family nursing methods on major catheter-re-lated complications in cancer patients with peripherally inserted central catheter (PICC) during chemother-apy intermission so as to reduce the incidence of complications and prolong the indwelling time and service life of the catheter. Methods We randomly divided 213 cancer patients who were discharged from hos-pital with PICC into two groups. One group(108 cases) routinely came back to our outpatient clinic and the other (105 cases) went to the community for nursing of the catheter. Results The total incidence rate of complications of the group who came back to our outpatient clinic for nursing of the catheter was 13.8%(15/ 108) and the other group was 51.4%(54/105). There existed statistical significance between the two groups (P<0.01). Conclusions There exists correlation between different family nursing methods and catheter complication rate. We suggest patients come back to our outpatient clinic for nursing of the catheter as pos-sible as they can.

Objective To study the clinical feature,diagnosis,treatment and prognosis of hepatocellular adenoma(HA).Methods The clinical data of 10 patients confirmed pathologically with HA,were retrospectively analyzed.Results There were four females and six males,aging from 25 to 71 years(mean:42.6 years).Among these 10 patients,6 cases were discovered to have no clinical symptom.Tumors were located in the right lobe of the liver in 4 cases,and in the left lobe in 6 cases.Uhrasonography was performed in all cases.Six cases underwent CT examination and three cases experienced MRI as well as angiography was conducted in one case.All cases were confirmed by complete excision and pathology.All of them were followed up for 5 months to 9 years without tumor recurrence.Conclusion The combination of imaging data is helpful in the diagnosis of HA.Surgery is the best treatment with satisfactory results,and its prognosis is fairly good.

Objective To study the diagnosis and treatment of pancreatic cystadenoma and cystadenocarcinoma.Methods The clinical data of 21 surgically treated patients of the cystic neoplasms of pancreas(CNP),confirmed by pathology,in recent 8 years were retrospectively analyzed.Results CNP was more frequently seen in young to middle-aged women.Upper abdominal mass and abdominal distention and pain were the main clinical presentations.The CNP resection rate was 95%(100%and 80%in benign and malignant CNP respectively).Of the 21cases,pancreaticoduodenectomy and distal pancreatectomy were performed in 2 and 16 respectively;and middle segment pancreatectomy in 2 patients.Postoperative pancreatic fistula was the leading complication.Conclusion CNP have no clinical characteristics.Ultrasonography and CT could be helpful to the diagnosis of CNP.The resection of the whole tumor with part paratumor pancreas tissue is advocated.

Objective To explore clinieopathologieal features and prognosis in a high grade malignancy group of colorectal mueinous carcinoma, signet-ring cell carcinoma and low-differentiated carcinoma. Methods Retrospective analysis and follow-up were made on 148 patients with colorectal mucinous carcinoma, 55 patients with signet-ring cell carcinoma and 281 low- differentiated carcinoma treated in our hospital from 1988 to 2006. Obtained data were analyzed by SPSS13.0. Related factors underwent x2 analysis, survival analysis were estimated using Kaplan-Meier method and compared using the Log-rank test. Results Coloreetal signet-ring cell carcinoma were significantly different from mucinous carcinoma and low- differentiated carcinoma in gender, age, tumor location, bowel obstruction, operative modus, tumor embolism, tumor infiltration and lymph node metastasis(x2 = 7, 67,38.4,86.0,14.5,93.7,17.3,62. 1,24. 4,56.17 ,P <0.05). Median survival time was 24 months in signet-ring cell carcinoma, 47 months in mueinous carcinoma and 49 months in low- differentiated carcinoma. The difference is of significance(x2 = 21.3, P < 0.05). Conclusions Clinicopathological characteristics and prognosis of colorectal signet-ring cell carcinoma, mueinous carcinoma and low- differentiated carcinoma is of significant difference(P < 0.05). Malignancy of signet-ring cell carcinoma is higher with worse prognosis.

Objective To investigate the surgical treatment and indications for primary lesion in patients with stage Ⅳ rectal cancer.nethods Clinical data of 118 patients with stage Ⅳ rectal cancer undergoing surgical treatment from January 1988 to December 2005 in Cancer Hospital of Chinese Academy of Medical Sciences were analyzed retrospectively using Statistical Package for the Social Sciences(Release 13.0,SPSS,Inc).Survival was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using the log-rank test.Cox regression was used in multivariate analysis.Results One hundred and five of 118 patients received rectal primary lesion resection,including 16 cases with simultaneously metastatic tumor resection.13 of 118 patients received ostomy.The overall 5-year survival rate of the primary lesion resection group was 8.57%,the 5-year survival rate of the metastatic tumor resection group was 31.2%.The median survival in the primary lesion resection group and the ostomy group was 15 months and 13 months respectively(X2=0.736.P=0.778).Multivariate analysis showed that degree of differentiation of primary tumor,maximal diameter of liver metastasis and chemotherapy were the most important prognostic factor of the primary tumor resection group.Conclusion Simultaneous resection of primary and metastatic tumor can prolong suivival time of patients with resectable stage Ⅳ rectal cancer.

Objective To investigate the surgical treatment for patients with isolated recurrence and metastasis of colon cancer after primary curative-intent resection. Methods In this stuay,58 cases suffering from postoperative recurrence of colon cancer between the year of 1996-2005 were analyzed retrospectively.Data were analyzed using statistical package for the social sciences(Release 11.5,SPSS,Inc).x2 analysis was used to determine the related factors,survival analysis was estimated using the Kaplan-Meier method and compared using tlle log-rank test. Results In this reoperative group radical resection was achieved in 81%(47/58)cases,and palliative operation in 11 cases,with median survival time of 48 months and 12 months respectively(x2=12.30,P=0.0005). Conclusion Postoperative isolated recurrence and metastasis of colon cancer usually allows radical resection in most cases with favorable long-time survival.

Objective:To evaluate salvage surgery in patients with early gastric cancer after noncurative endoscopic resection .Method:A total of 56 cases with early gastric cancer receiving salvage surgery after noncurative endoscopic resection were enrolled and the clinicopathological and follow-up information were analyzed to evaluate the necessity and safety of salvage surgery.Results:Among the 44(79%)patients with submucosal invasion, 38 (68%) were with SM2 (invasion submucosal invasion≥500 μm) according to the pathological results after endoscopic resection. 33 (59%)cases had positive margin. The rate of lymph node metastasis and positive residual tumor as found by salvage gastrectomy were 11% (6/56) and 25% (14/56) . In the multivariate analysis, deeper submucosal invasion resulted as independent risk factor for residual tumor( OR=1.001, 95% CI=1.000-1.002, P=0.036). Among the 12(21%)cases with postoperative complications, 3 (5%)underwent unplanned reoperations because of anastomotic or intra-abdominal bleeding. There was no difference in the number of retrieved lymph nodes and rate of postoperative complications between laparoscopic and open surgery(all P>0.05). Conclusion:For patients with the risk factors of lymph node metastasis after noncurative endoscopic resection, salvage surgery was necessary and laparoscopic approach was safe and feasible.

Objective To investigate the clinical and pathologic characteristics of rectal gastrointestinal stromal tumor (GIST),and to evaluate the management of rectal GIST. Methods The clinical and pathological data of 19 cases of rectal GIST in recent 19 years were studied retrospectively. Results The diagnosis of 19 cases of rectal GIST were identified by surgery and pathology. Most rectal GISTs were spindle cell type. Immunohistochemical analysis displayed positive reactivity for CD117(100%) and CD34(73. 7% ). Graded by aggressive behavior there were 4 cases of high risk, 3 cases of intermediate risk, 5 cases of low risk and 7 cases of very low risk. Conclusions Rectal GISTs have a low prevalence and have no specific symptom in the early stage. Most tumors are low risk in aggressive behavior. It is difficult to get an accurate pathological diagnosis before operation and difficult to decide whether a sphincter preserving procedure is justified however trans-anal local resection is the therapy of choice for low risk submucosal rectal GIST(

Objective Data from the HIV/AIDS surveillance sentinel sites was used to identify the recent HIV-1 infections and to estimate the HIV-1 incidence and epidemic trends among intravenous drug users (IDU),MSM,female sex workers and men attending the sexually transmitted disease clinics in Sichuan province.Methods Specimens collected from IDUs,MSM,female sex workers and men attending the sexually transmitted disease clinics sentinel sites were confirmed as HIV-I positive and tested with BED-CEIA.Annual HIV-1 prevalence and incidence rates were calculated and the incidence was adjusted by McNermar method.Results A total number of 194 223 serum specimens were collected and HIV antibody tested,with 5 297 HIV-1 positive.4 640 of the positives underwent BED-CEIA,with 749 identified as recent infections.During 2011-2015,HIV-1 incidence rates of the four types of population appeared as 5.16％ (95％CI:4.65-5.66),0.22％ (95％CI:0.16-0.28),0.57％(95％CI:0.45-0.69),7.53％ (95％CI:6.06-9.01) and 0.44％ (95％CI:0.36-0.53) respectively.Significant differences were seen in the HIV-1 incidence rates.Conclusions The HIV-1 incidence rates of IDUs from other sentinel sites in Sichuan province,female sex workers and men attending the sexually transmitted disease clinics appeared low,showing that the AIDS prevention and control activities worked effectively.However,the HIV-1 incidence of MSM was still at high level and even rising,suggesting that HIV-1 transmission between MSM and IDUs was possible.
