Objective To evaluate the diagnostic effect of intro-operative tissue puncture biopsy and find its influential factors.Methods The clinical data of 94 patients with pancreatic mass treated in our hospital from July 1994 to December 2007 and undergoing intro-operative tissue puncture biopsy were retrospectively analyzed.Results The sensitivity,the specificity,the positive predictive value and the negative predictive value were 74.6%,93.8%,98.0%and 46.9%,respectively.The single factor analysis showed that the size of pancreatic mass,the number of puncture and complicating with pancreatic fibrosis or not were related to the diagnosis of tissue puncture.The multiple factor analysis showed that the size of pancreatic mass(P=0.014)and the number of puncture(P=0.020)were crucial to the diagnosis of puncture.The sensitivity and specificity of intro-operative tissue puncture biopsy for the pancreatic mass less than 25 mm were lower than that for the mass larger than 25 mm (P=0.000).The sensitivity and specificity would be increased as the number of puncture increased (P=0.000).For the mass less than 25 mm,increasing the humber of puncture would improve the sensitivity(P=0.002).Conclusion Intro-operative tissue puncture biopsy is a simple and accurate procedure for differentiating the pancreatic mass.The sensitivity and specificity could be improved by increasing the number of puncture,especially for the patients with pancreatic mass less than 25 mm.

Objective To determine the value of preoperative clinical, biochemical, cross-sec-tional imaging features and results of fine-needle aspiration for predicting malignancy in cystic neo-plasms of the pancreas (CNP). Methods The medical records of 69 patients receiving operations for CNP between 1994 and 2008 in our hospital were reviewed retrospectively. The predictive effect of va-rious preoperative factors such as sex, location, clinical manifestation, maximum diameters, tumor marker, pancreatic duct obstruction and calcification on the malignant potential of CNP was evaluated by Single and multi-factor analysis, fine needle aspiration (FNA) and intraoperative frozen-section ex-amination of the pancreatic transection margin was investigated. Results All the 69 patients were con-firmed pathologically. Of the 69 patients, 13 suffered from serous cystic neoplasms, 30 from mucinous cystic neoplasms,7 from intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms,12 from solid pseudopapillary neo-plasms and 7 from cystic neoplasms. Forty-four lesions were diagnosed as malignant or borderline.Univariate analysis should that jaundice, raised CEA and/or CA19-9, maximum diameters and solid component of cystic neoplasmshad were of statistical significance for the risk of malignancy in CNP.The sensitivity was 34.1% (15/44), 47.7 % (21/44), 88.6%(39/44),72.7%(32/44) and specificity 96% (24/25), 84% (23/25), 68% (17/25),72% (18/25), respectively. The last three were identified as independent predictive factors for malignancy by multivariate analysis. Three cases were accurately diagnosed out of the 9 undergoing FNA preoperatively. One of 7 patients with intraductal papillary mucinous neoplasms (IPMN) undenwent total pancreatetomy for transection margin positivity.Conclusion Most malignant CNP can be accurately diagnosed preoperatively from a typical clinical,biochemical and cross-sectional imaging picture. FNA is only used in the patients who are potential candidates for nonoperative management. Margin analysis is necessary for pancreatic resection.

Objective To study the causes of pancreatic fistula following pancreatioduodenectomy, and evaluate the effect of total pancreatic uncinate process resection on the prevention of pancreatic fistula by analyzing the potential aetiology of pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy.Methods The clinical data of 68 patients, who were admitted into the No. 1 ward of Surgical Department of Peking University First Hospital during the period from Jan. 2004 to Jun. 2009, were retrospectively analyzed. The day-average level of amylase higher than 3 times of normal value, as measured from the drainage of peritoneal cavity, serves as the diagnostic criterion of the postoperative pancreatic fistula.Factors relevant to fistula, which result in the abnormal increase of the amylase in the drain, such as the extent of resection of pancreatic uncinate process, the anastomotic manners of pancreas and digestive tract, and the pancreatic fibrosis were statistically analyzed. Results The incidence of pancreatic fistula was 33. 8% according to the diagnostic criterion mentioned above; Single factor analysis showed that the resection extent of uncinate process (P = 0. 000) and the level of serum glucose ( P = 0. 045 ) were correlated with the occurrence of pancreatic fistula. Multivariate analysis identified that the independent risk factor for pancreatic fistula was the resection extent of uncinate process(P =0. 000). Pancreatic fibrosis, the manners of the anastomosis of pancreas and digestive tract were not independent risk factors. Conclusion Total resection of uncinate process could prevent pancreatic fistula from residual pancreatic uncinate process, hence reduce the incidence of pancreatic fistula following pancreaticoduedenectomy.

Objective To investigate the surgical procedure selection for chronic pancreatitis.Methods The clinical data of 80 patients with chronic pancreatitis who were admitted to the Peking University First Hospital from January 2000 to August 2013 were retrospectively analyzed.Thirty-eight patients were with or without pancreatic duct stone,and the dilation of the pancreatic duct was above 7 mm,44 patients were with common bile duct dilation,32 patients were with inflammatory mass in the head of the pancreas,and 3 patients were with splenomegaly and esophagogastric varices.Surgical procedures were selected according to the symptoms and results of imaging examination.The remission or recurrence of pain was judged according to the visual analog scales.Patients were followed up via out-patient examination,mail or phone call till December 2013.Results Choledochojejunostomy was done on 27 patients,Partington-Rochelle pancreaticojejunostomy on 24 patients,PartingtonRochelle pancreaticojejunostomy + choledochojejunostomy on 6 patients,pancreaticoduodenectomy on 7 patients,resection of the body and tail of the pancreas on 4 patients,Beger's procedure on 3 patients,splenectomy on 3 patients,Frey's procedure + fenestration of bile duct in the head of the pancreas on 3 patients,Frey's procedure on 2 patients,common bile duct exploration + T tube drainage on 1 patient.The remission rate of abdominal pain was 95.2％ (60/63).One patient died of abdominal infection and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome perioperatively.Three patients were complicated with abdominal infection,2 with pancreatic fistula,1 with biliary fistula and 1 with abdominal bleeding.All the complications were cured by conservative treatment.Seventy-nine patients were followed up,and the mean time of follow-up was 58.6 months (range,4-156 months).Thirty patients had recurrence or new onset of abdominal pain,and the recurrence rate was 38.0％ (30/79).Of the 32 patients with inflammatory mass in the head of the pancreas,17 received choledochojejunostomy,and the recurrence rate of abdominal pain was 9/17 ; the other 15 patients received pancreatoduodenectomy,Beger' procedure or Frey's procedure,and the recurrence rate of abdominal pain was 1/15.Of the 41 patients without inflammatory mass,10 received choledochojejunostomy,and the recurrence rate of abdominal pain was 7/10; 30 received PartingtonRochelle pancreaticojejunostomy,and the recurrence rate of abdominal pain was 33.3％ (10/30).Conclusions Complete drainage could relieve the symptoms for patients with pancreatic duct dilation.Surgical resection or combined surgical procedure is effective for the treatment of patients with inflammatory mass in the head of the pancreas.

Objective To investigate the risks and benefits of different surgical treatments for cystic neoplasms of the pancreas (CNP).Methods The clinical data of 243 CNP patients were reviewed retrospectively.Different surgical treatments were adopted according to the site,size and invasiveness of the tumors.A long term follow-up was carried out for patients with small benign CNP,and a surgical excision is proposed if tumors progressed during the observation.Results 58 outpatients with no evidence of malignancy was followed up and had long-term survival,in which 4 patients received a surgical resection in case of tumor progression,and all of them were confirmed benign tumors.185 cases received surgical treatments,with a resection rate of 97.3％ (180/185),including 127 non-invasive tumors,and 58 cases of invasive tumors.Perioperative mortality was 2/185,and morbidity rate was 41/185.Pancreatic fistula was the most frequent complication,which was significantly associated with tumor site and excision extension.All patients with non-invasive CNP acquired a long term survival after surgical treatments.The postoperative 1,3,5 year survival rates for patients with invasive lesions were 89.6％,52.1％ and 29.2％,respectively.Conclusions Long term follow-up and observation is feasible for asymptomatic patients with benign CNP.A radical resection should be performed for malignancy,and a combined multi-organ resection may improve the prognosis for local advanced tumors.

Objective To explore the impact of abdominal situs inversus on the diagnosis and treatment of abdominal diseases.Methods Clinical data and course of 13 abdominal situs inversus cases from January 2012 to December 2016 were retrospectively analyzed.Results A total of 13 cases accounting for 1.5/10 000 of all cases who had abdominal CT were diagnosed situs inversus.6 of them were diagnosed for routine physical examination,4 of them for urinary tract symptoms,and the other 3 for digestive complaints.Conservative treatment or follow-up was prescribed for 8 patients who were asymptomatic and healthy;Five patients received operation,including 2 nephrecctomy,1 pancreatico duodenectomy,1 laparoscopic cholecystectomy,and 1 endoscopic retrograde cholangiopancreatography.All the cases recovered uneventfully.Conclusions Abdominal situs inversus is rare,non-disease entity,usually an incidental finding during clinical examination.It does not affect the therapeutic principle of concurrent primary disease.
