Objective To explore the clinical value of laparoscopic radical cystectomy based on fascia anatomy for bladder cancer treatment.Methods The clinical data of 51 patients with bladder cancer who underwent 3D laparoscopic radical cystectomy during Jan.2015 and Jun.2022 were retrospectively analyzed.The surgery was performed based on membrane anatomy technology along four longitudinal and two transverse planes to complete the radical cystectomy.The pelvic plexus was preserved for patients with normal preoperative sexual function.Results All surgeries were completed without conversion to open operation.The mean operation time was(502.52±108.99)min,mean intraoperative blood loss was(275.96±155.18)mL,mean postoperative drainage time was(4.14±2.41)d,and the mean postoperative hospital stay was(16.37±4.85)d.The mean number of lymph nodes removed was(17.98±11.48).The mean postoperative follow-up was(30.27±19.39)months.At the last follow-up,no Clavien ≥grade 3 complications were observed.The estimated overall survival(OS),tumor-specific survival(TSS),and recurrence-free survival(RFS)were 82.4％,92.2％,and 88.2％,respectively.The lymph node positive patients had shorter OS and RFS(60.0％,60.0％)than the lymph node negative patients(84.8％,91.3％).Among the 19 male patients who underwent radical cystectomy with pre-exposure and preservation of pelvic plexus,daytime and nocturnal continence rate were 83.3％and 72.2％,respectively,and 17 patients recovered potency within 6 months postoperatively.Conclusion Laparoscopic radical cystectomy based on fascia anatomy is safe and effective in laparoscopic radical cystectomy,with standardized surgical procedure,satisfactory oncological outcomes,little hemorrhage,few complications and fast recovery.

Objective:To provide scientific basis for prevention and control measures of island regions through analyzing the characteristics of malignant tumor incidence and mortality in eastern island areas of China and comparing the data with the national cancer mortality data in the same period. Methods:Using the incidence and mortality data of malignant tumor in Daishan county,Zhoushan collected by the Daishan Center for Disease Control and Prevention(CDC)from 2014 to 2019,which was stratified by gender,the crude incidence rates(CIR)and crude mortality rates(CMR)were calculated,and the top 10 malignant tumors with the highest incidence or mortality rates were then ranked.The Segi's world standard population was used to calculate the age-standardized incidence(ASIR)and age-standardized mortality rate(ASMR).The local data were compared with the national cancer mortality data from 2014 to 2019,and Chi-square test was used to analyze the differences between these two sets of data using the SPSS software.The difference was considered statistically significant when P<0.05. Results:There was a total of 7 305 incidence cases of malignant tumors in Daishan county,Zhoushan from 2014 to 2019.The CIR was 662.39/105 and the ASIR was 306.81/105.Notably,the CIR was the highest in the age group of 75-79 years old.The top 5 malignant tumors with the highest incidence rates were lung cancer(27.15％),gastric cancer(12.76％),liver cancer(10.95％),colorectal cancer(6.92％)and breast cancer(5.42％),whose ASIR were 75.09/105,32.06/105,31.01/105,17.81/105 and 18.36/105,respectively.There was a total of 3 412 mortality cases of malignant tumors in Daishan county,Zhoushan from 2014 to 2019.The CMR was 309.39/105 and the ASMR was 122.73/105.Notably,the CMR was the highest in the age group of 80-85 years old.The top 5 malignant tumors with the highest mortality rates were lung cancer(24.94％),liver cancer(18.64％),gastric cancer(17.00％),colorectal cancer(7.56％)and esophageal cancer(5.72％),whose ASMR were 29.65/105,24.97/105,19.01/105,8.75/105 and 6.60/105,respectively.The total ASMR of malignant tumors in Daishan county,Zhoushan was higher than national total ASMR from 2014 to 2019(100.34/105)(P<0.001).Specifically,the ASMR of gastric cancer,lung cancer and colorectal cancer in Daishan county were significantly higher than national levels(gastric cancer:12.46/105;liver cancer:16.45/105;colorectal cancer:6.63/105)(P<0.01),whereas no significant difference in the ASMR of lung cancer and esophageal cancer between Daishan county and the whole nation(lung cancer:28.06/105;esophageal cancer:7.61/105)was observed. Conclusion:Lung cancer,gastric cancer,liver cancer and colorectal cancer were malignant tumors with higher incidence and mortality rates in Daishan county,Zhoushan from 2014 to 2019.Particularly,the ASMR of gastric cancer,liver cancer and colorectal cancer were significantly higher than the national levels,and these malignant tumors should be considered as the major focus of cancer prevention and control.

Objective:To assess the clinical effectiveness and safety of Omalizumab for treating pediatric allergic asthma in real world in China.Methods:The clinical data of children aged 6 to 11 years with allergic asthma who received Omalizumab treatment in 17 hospitals in China between July 6, 2018 and September 30, 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.Such information as the demographic characteristics, allergic history, family history, total immunoglobulin E (IgE) levels, specific IgE levels, skin prick test, exhaled nitric oxide (FeNO) levels, eosinophil (EOS) counts, and comorbidities at baseline were collected.Descriptive analysis of the Omalizumab treatment mode was made, and the difference in the first dose, injection frequency and course of treatment between the Omalizumab treatment mode and the mode recommended in the instruction was investigated.Global Evaluation of Treatment Effectiveness (GETE) analysis was made after Omalizumab treatment.The moderate-to-severe asthma exacerbation rate, inhaled corticosteroid (ICS) dose, lung functions were compared before and after Omalizumab treatment.Changes in the Childhood Asthma Control Test (C-ACT) and Pediatric Asthma Quality of Life Questionnaire (PAQLQ) results from baseline to 4, 8, 12, 16, 24, and 52 weeks after Omalizumab treatment were studied.The commodity improvement was assessed.The adverse event (AE) and serious adverse event (SAE) were analyzed for the evaluation of Omalizumab treatment safety.The difference in the annual rate of moderate-to-severe asthma exacerbation and ICS reduction was investigated by using t test.The significance level was set to 0.05.Other parameters were all subject to descriptive analysis.A total of 200 allergic asthma patients were enrolled, including 75.5% ( n=151) males and 24.5% ( n=49) females.The patients aged (8.20±1.81) years. Results:The median total IgE level of the 200 patients was 513.5 (24.4-11 600.0) IU/mL.Their median treatment time with Omalizumab was 112 (1-666) days.Their first dose of Omalizumab was 300 (150-600) mg.Of the 200 cases, 114 cases (57.0%) followed the first Omalizumab dosage recommended in the instruction.After 4-6 months of Omalizumab treatment, 88.5% of the patients enrolled ( n=117) responded to Omalizumab.After 4 weeks of treatment with Omalizumab, asthma was well-controlled, with an increased C-ACT score [from (22.70±3.70) points to (18.90±3.74) points at baseline]. Four-six months after Omalizumab administration, the annual rate of moderate-to-severe asthma exacerbation had a reduction of (2.00±5.68) per patient year( t=4.702 5, P<0.001), the median ICS daily dose was lowered [0 (0-240) μg vs. 160 (50-4 000) μg at baseline] ( P<0.001), the PAQLQ score was improved [(154.90±8.57) points vs. (122.80±27.15) points at baseline], and the forced expiratory volume in one second % predicted (FEV 1%pred) was increased [(92.80±10.50)% vs. (89.70±18.17)% at baseline]. In patients with available evaluations for comorbidities, including allergic rhinitis, atopic dermatitis or eczema, urticaria, allergic conjunctivitis and sinusitis, 92.8%-100.0% showed improved symptoms.A total of 124 AE were reported in 58 (29.0%) of the 200 patients, and the annual incidence was 0(0-15.1) per patient year.In 53 patients who suffered AE, 44 patients (83.0%) and 9 patients (17.0%) reported mild and moderate AE, respectively.No severe AE were observed in patients.The annual incidence of SAE was 0(0-1.9) per patient year.Most common drug-related AE were abdominal pain (2 patients, 1.0%) and fever (2 patients, 1.0%). No patient withdrew Omalizumab due to AE. Conclusions:Omalizumab shows good effectiveness and safety for the treatment of asthma in children.It can reduce the moderate-to-severe asthma exacerbation rate, reduce the ICS dose, improve asthma control levels, and improve lung functions and quality of life of patients.

Melorheostosis is a rare disorder of osteopathia. The clinical characteristics of melorheostosis in children is totally different from that in adults. The radiographic features of melorheostosis include the hyperostosis in endosteal on the one side of the cavum medullare and formed streakiness. The soft tissue contracture of the limb and joint deformities are the symptoms of melorheostosis. Here, the authors reported a melorheostosis case of 6 years old girl who suffered from severe valgus deformity of the right knee with permanent patellar dislocation. A surgical stabilization was applied with lateral soft tissue release, medial soft tissue stabilization and transferred the vastus medialis laterally (kinetic stability). After 19 years follow up postoperatively, the limb developed well in satisfied alignment with good function of knee joints, even participated in some sports activities. Other authors reported a similar case of melorheostosis with surgical treatment and achieved good outcomes in limb realignment and reduction. The further suggested that the surgical treatment should be produced before epiphyseal closure.

Renal subcapsular abscess(RSA) is a rare disease with unknown etiology and pathogenesis. CT is an important assistant examination for the diagnosis. In this study, we reported 2 cases of RSA. One case achieved good therapeutic effect by timely debridement and surgery drainage, and the other case refused to perform debridement and drainage, which lead to the death. This kind of disease develops quickly and progresses rapidly. The adequate debridement and surgery drainage are important in treating this disease.

This study reported a case of spontaneous renal artery dissection , which treated by intravascular interventional therapy of renal artery , and had achieved good therapeutic effect.

Objective: To establish a critical segmental bone defect model in a rabbit ulna. Methods: Twenty male New Zealand white rabbits were randomly assigned into 5 groups according to the digital table, and then 14, 15, 16, 17 and 18mm segmental defects(contained periosteum) were created in the middle part of ulna on both sides, respectively.At 6 and 12 weeks after surgery, the repair of segmental bone defects was evaluated by naked eyes, X-ray and histological examination. Results: At 12 weeks after surgery, all of the segmental defects with the length of 14 and 15mm were completely repaired.But none of the defects with the length of 16, 17 and 18mm was repaired. Conclusion The length of critical segmental bone defect in rabbit ulna was 16 mm.

Objective: To study the correlation between pancreatic duct stent placement and postoperative pancreatic fistula in patients undergoing pancreaticoduodenectomy. Methods: We performed a retrospective review on 298 patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy from Jan 2011 to Dec 2016. Patients were divided into none stent group, external stent group and internal stent group according to the placement and drainage of the pancreatic duct stent. Results: There were 60 cases in none stent group, 103 cases in external stent group and 135 cases in internal stent group. Altogether there were 52 cases suffering from biochemical pancreatic fistula, 52 cases of grade B fistula and 9 cases of grade C pancreatic fistula. There were three factors with statistical significance: 1, the operative method (χ²=20.947, P=0.000), 2, the diameter of main pancreatic duct (χ²=8.662, P=0.013), and 3, the intraoperative blood loss (χ²=14.03, P=0.001). There were no statistical significance difference between no stenting group and external/ internal stent group in the incidence of pancreatic fistula (P>0.05). The difference between internal stent group and external stent group was of statistical significance (χ²=9.948, P=0.019). The incidence of clinically relevant pancreatic fistula in external stent group was lower than the internal stent group (14.5% vs. 26.6%)(χ²=9.777, P=0.002). Conclusions The pancreatic duct stenting is not a risk factor for pancreatic fistula. The external drainage of pancreatic juice is associated with a lower incidence of pancreatic fistula compared to the internal drainage.

Objective: To explore the reasons and clinical treatment process of postoperative internal hernia in cases of gastric cancer, and improve the diagnosis and treatment level postoperative acute abdomen pain of gastric cancer patients. Methods: A retrospective analysis was carried out to study the data of clinical diagnosis and treatment in 7 patients, who were performed an emergency operation within the First Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University from January, 2013 to August, 2016 caused by postoperative internal hernias of gastric cancer. Results: Among the 7 postoperative gastric cancer patients, 2 cases had taken surgery of radical full gastric resection, 3 cases had taken surgery of radical distal gastric resection, and 2 cases had taken surgery of radical proximal gastric resection. All the 7 cases were confirmed to be incarcerated intestinal obstruction caused by internal hernia during emergency operation. Only 1 case was diagnosed to be internal hernia before surgery, while 3 cases were diagnosed as volvulus, 2 cases were diagnosed as perforation and 1 case was diagnosed as gastrolplegia. The small intestinal obstruction of all cases was caused by incarcerated intestinal. All the patients recovered well, and no complications occurred. Conclusions Internal hernias of the postoperative gastric cancer patients, which is often characterized by small intestinal obstruction symptoms, is difficult to diagnose before operation. Emergency operation in time for the postoperative gastric cancer patients with continuous acute abdominal pain may help to reduce the severe complications and improve patient′s prognosis.

BACKGROUNDVarious rat kidney transplantation models have been introduced over the decades and the study on the models seems to lack novelty and necessity. However, vascular anastomosis, especially renal vein, is still very difficult for trainees. The aim of this study was to provide the modified renal venous anastomosis of rat kidney transplantation to substitute the current method for trainees.

METHODSMale Wistar rats were used as donors and recipients, respectively. Left orthotopic transplantation was performed with a modified technique of renal vein anastomosis, combining the end-to-end sutures with epidural catheter. Meanwhile, the survival rate, warm ischemia time, renal venous anastomosis time, and complications were recorded to evaluate the merits of the modified technique compared with the current recommended technique of rat renal vein. Two trainees took part in the learning of the models in two methods for performing 30 operations, respectively.

RESULTSThe difference in warm ischemia time (from (57.25 ± 7.30) minutes in the first 10 operations to (30.05 ± 1.85) minutes in the third 10 operations) and renal vein anastomosis time (from (32.80 ± 3.80) minutes in the first 10 operations to (19.30 ± 0.98) minutes in the third 10 operations) was significantly short (P < 0.01) and the survival rate was statistically high (from (25 ± 7)% in the first 10 operations to 70% in the third 10 operations) in equal number of operations (P < 0.01) by comparing with the current recommended method ((47.60 ± 7.19) minutes to (22.8 ± 1.85) minutes, (22.40 ± 3.10) minutes to (9.95 ± 1.50) minutes, 45%± 7% to 80%± 0, respectively). The intraoperative complications and postoperative complications of renal venous anastomosis were also significantly decreased (P < 0.01).

CONCLUSIONSThe technique with epidural catheter can shorten the learning curve of the trainee learning rat kidney transplantation. It may replace the currently recommended technique of rat renal vein for trainees.
