Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of laparoscopic resection for large volume of adrenal tumor.Methods Eighty patients with adrenal tumor who were treatment by laparoscopic resection were divided into large volume group (diameter ≥ 6 cm) and small volume group (diameter < 6 cm) according to the size of the tumor.The intraoperative and postoperative complications of the two groups were compared.Results The operation time,intraoperative bleeding volume and postoperative hospitalization time of large volume group were significantly higher than those in small volume group:(187.4 ±39.2) min vs.(153.7 ± 31.6) min,(458.2 ± 87.3) ml vs.(105.9 ± 25.1) ml and (10.9 ± 2.7) d vs.(7.3 ± 1.5) d,and the difference were statistically significant (P < 0.05).The postoperative complications in two groups had no significant difference:10.3% (4/39) vs.7.3% (3/41),P > 0.05.Conclusion The laparoscopic resection for large volume of adrenal tumor have the advantages of less invasion,faster recovery and less complications,and it has become the main mode of treatment.

Background There are patients who underwent emergency coronary angiography (CAG) but did not receive percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). The aim of this study was to analyze these reasons. Methods This is a single-center retrospective study. We recruited 201 consecutive patients who received emergency CAG but did not receive PCI. To investigate the value of the Global Registry of Acute Coronary Events (GRACE) score in predicting PCI possibilities in non-ST segment elevation acute coronary syndrome (NSTE-ACS) pa-tients, we recruited 80 consecutive patients who presented with NSTE-ACS and received emergency CAG as well as emergency PCI. Re-sults Among the 201 patients who received emergency CAG but did not receive PCI, 26%patients had final diagnosis other than coronary heart disease. In the patients with significant coronary artery stenosis, 23 patients (11.5%) were recommended to coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG), one patient (0.5%) refused PCI; 13 patients (6.5%) with significant thrombus burden were treated with glycoprotein IIb/IIIa receptor antagonist;74 patients (36.8%) were treated with drug therapy because no severe stenosis (>70%) was present in the crime vessel. Moreover, 80 of the 201 patients were presented with NSTE-ACS (excluding those patients with final diagnosis other than coronary heart disease, excluding those patients planned for CABG treatment), referred as non PCI NSTE-ACS. When comparing their GRACE scores with 80 consecutive patients presented with NSTE-ACS who received emergency CAG as well as emergency PCI (referred as PCI NSTE-ACS), we found that PCI NSTE-ACS patients had significantly higher GRACE scores compared with non PCI NSTE-ACS patients. We then used Receiver Operator Characteristic Curve (ROC) to test whether the GRACE score is good at evaluating the possibilities of PCI in NSTE-ACS patients. The area under the curve was 0.854 ± 0.030 (P<0.001), indicating good predictive value. Furthermore, we analyzed results derived from ROC statistics, and found that a GRACE score of 125.5, as a cut-off, has high sensitivity and specificity in evaluating PCI possibilities in NSTE-ACS patients. Conclusions Our findings indicate that the GRACE score has predictive value in determining whether NSTE-ACS patients would receive PCI.

Objective To analyze the relationship between fasting plasma glucose (FPG) level and complexity of coronary artery lesions in patients with coronary stenosis by angiography. Methods The data of clinic and coronary angiogram (CAG) were retrospectively collected in 929 patients with established coronary stenosis by coronary angiography at Peking University Third Hospital from January 2009 to January 2011. The patients were grouped according to SYNTAX score, and the relationship between FPG level and SYNTAX score were analyzed using bivariate, Multivariate stepwise regression and logistic regression analysis. Results ①929 patients were devided into three groups:47 cases into low risk group (score<22), 189 into moderate risk group (score≥22 and<33) and 639 into high risk group (score≥33). Intergroup analysis showed that age (P=0.000), FPG level [5.20 (4.70,6.30) mmol/L, 5.70 (4.90,7.15) mmol/L, 5.80 (5.30,7.60) mmol/L, P=0.000], proportions of FPG abnormality [283 (40.8%), 100(52.9%), 28(59.6%), P=0.001] and patients with diabetes history (P=0.003) were increased along with SYNTAX score elevated.②Correlation analysis showed correlativity (r=0.167, P=0.000) between SYNTAX score and FPG. In non-diabetes history subgroup, correlation between SYNTAX score and FPG remained signiifcant (r=0.149, P=0.000). However, in diabetes history subgroup, the correlation was not significant. ③ Multivariate stepwise regression analysis showed an independent correlation between FPG and SYNTAX score (β=0.452, P=0.002). In non-diabetes history subgroup, the correlation remained significant (β=1.039, P=0.000).④ When moderate-high risk group serve as dependent variable, and age, gender, CAD risk factors and FPG serve as independent variables, logistic regression analysis screened out two variables:age (whole group:OR 1.033, 95%CI 1.017 ~ 1.049, P=0.000;non-diabetes history subgroup:OR 1.039, 95%CI 1.020 ~ 1.059, P=0.000) and FPG (whole group: OR 1.114, 95% CI 1.038 ~ 1.195, P=0.003; non-diabetes history subgroup:OR 1.299, 95%CI 1.088 ~ 1.387, P=0.001). Conclusions FPG is likely to relfect complexity of coronary artery lesions and predict SYNTAX score in patients with coronary stenosis, especially in patients without diabetes history.

Objective: To observe the midterm outcomes of“2-staged”hybrid coronary revascularization (HCR) for treating the patients with multi-vessel coronary artery disease (CAD) and to evaluate the feasibility, safety and effcacy of“2-staged”HCR.
Methods: A total of 73 relevant patients received elective “2-staged” HCR in our hospital from 2012-01 to 2014-06 were studied. There were 50 (68.5%) male and 23 (31.5%) female at the age of (61.1±10.7) years and all patients had multi coronary artery lesions including left anterior descending (LAD) artery. The key points of“2-staged”HCR were as follows:double-chamber intubation with general anesthesia, small incision between 4-5 ribs of left front thorax, take left internal mammary artery (LIMA) by direct view and make anastomosis of LIMA and LAD with heartbeat. At (3-5) days post-minimally invasive direct coronary artery bypass (MIDCAB), coronary angiography (CAG) was conducted to confirm that LIMA-LAD bypass vessel was unobstructed; then percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI) was performed in non-LAD coronary artery for stent implantation. Post-operative echocardiography, chest X-ray and ECG were examined in each year;coronary CTA or CAG would be taken if the patients with myocardial ischemia.
Results: All patients finished“2-staged”HCR smoothly and no operative death occurred. The average surgical time was (152.9±43.8) min and (2.6±0.5) coronary branches were treated, total post-operative drainage volume was (558.6±441.3) ml, red blood cell transfusion was (0.8±1.9) U, mechanical ventilation time was (10.5±13.0) h. The interval between MIDCAB and PCI was (5.3±2) days and (1.6±0.7) stents was implanted. During post-operative follow-up period, there 1 (1.4%) patient died, 3 (4.1%) with recurrent myocardial ischemia, 1 (1.4%) with in-stent restenosis and received PCI again, 4 (5.5%) with MACCE.
Conclusion: “2-staged”HCR is a safe and feasible operation with satisfactory peri-operative and mid-term outcomes;it is suitable for the patients with multi-vessel CAD including severe LAD lesions.
