BACKGROUND:The endplate can be combined closely with different intervertebral fusion cages through the pedicle screw internal fixation system, to provide a more reliable spine stability for reconstruction of intervertebral height, lumbar physiological curvature and biomechanical function. OBJECTIVE:To compare the effectiveness of carbon fiber interbody fusion cage and titanium mesh cage in lumbar disc degeneration. METHODS:Sixty patients with L3-S1 RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Sixty patients completed the 3-27 months folow-up, and had good bone fusion. Lumbar activity was normal in al the patients at 3 months after treatment. The Japanese Orthopaedic Association Scores at 3 months after implantation and the intervertebral height at 1 week after implantation were significantly improved in the two groups (P < 0.05), but there was no difference between the two groups. The materials in the lumbar disc degeneration who underwent posterior lumbar interbody fusion, 33 males and 27 females, were randomized into carbon fiber interbody fusion cage group and titanium mesh cage group. Japanese Orthopaedic Association Scores were compared between the two groups before and after the implantation, as wel as the intervertebral height, intervertebral fusion and complications. two groups had good biocompatibility with no rejection and no infection. Fusion cage subsidence occurred in two cases from the titanium mesh cage group. These findings indicate that both of carbon fiber interbody fusion cage and titanium mesh cage have good biocompatibility, improve the stability of the vertebral body, and restore the intervertebral height. Moreover, the carbon fiber material performance is better than the metal titanium mesh because of lower complication rate.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy and safety of Qianliejiedu capsule in the treatment of chronic prostatitis. Methods A multi-central,randomized,double-blind clinical trial was conducted.A total of 209 patients diagnosed as chronic prostatitis were randomly divided into two groups:the trial group were treated with Qianliejiedu Capsule,5 pills were taken orally for each time,twice a day;the control group were given Qianlietai Pill,5 pills were taken orally for each time and 3 times a day.All patients of the tWO groups were treated for 4 weeks,The efficacy was evaluated by urethra irritating,painful or discomfortable symptoms,and the WBC count in EPS after the treatment.Clinical criteria divided into 4 types,cure:symptom score compared with a decrease≥90%;markedly effective:symptom score compared with a decrease of 60%to 89%;effective:symptom score comparedwith a decrease of 30%to 59%;invalid:symptom score compared with a decrease of＜30%.Results There were 102 patients in the treatment group,11 got cured,49 cases were remarkably effectire,28 eases were effective,14 eases were ineffective and the total effective rate was 86.2%(88/102).There were 98 patients in the treatment group,4 got cured,38 cases were remarkably effective,35 cases were effective,21 cases were ineffective,and the total effective rate was 78.6%(77/98).The trial group and the control group could improve the symptoms such as frequent micturition,the remaining urine,the lower abdomen ache,the urethra stabbing pain,the unwell perineum,the waist and sacrum ache,the moist scrotum,and the testicle ache.The vanishing rate of the trial group was 87.6%,82.1%,74.5%,84.1%,93.7%,80.3%,82.5%,82.3%;and the control group was 74.7%,73.0%,71.0%,74.2%,71.4%,67.9%,72.3%,76.2%.The vanishing rates of frequent micturition symptom of the 2 groups were significantly different(P=0.032).The result of WBC of the trial group before treatment was as follows:WBC 10-19 28 cases,WBC 20-29 33 cases,WBC≥30 41 cases.The result of WBC of the trial group after treatment was as follows:WBC＜10 45cases,WBC 10-19 34 cases,WBC 20-29 20 cases,WBC≥30 3 cases.The result of WBC of the control group before treatment was as follows:WBC 10-19 26 cases,WBC 20-29 35 cases,WBC:≥30 37 cases.The result of WBC of the control group after treatment was as follows:WBC＜10 42 caaes,WBC 10-19 33 cases,WBC 20-29 15 cases,WBC≥30 8 cases.There were significant differences between the before and after treatment results(P＜0.05).Two cases in the trial group and 3 cases in the control group had mild adverse reactions such as nausea,epigastric discomfort,and watery stool. Conclusion Qianliejiedu capsule is effective and safe for the treatment of chronic prostatitis.

OBJECTIVE:To investigate the effects of preemptive analgesia of parecoxib-sodium for radical mastectomy of breast cancer. METHODS:A total of 60 female patients underwent selective radical mastectomy of breast cancer under general anes-thesia were randomly divided into observation group(40 cases)and control group(20 cases). 15 min before anesthesia induction, observation group was given intravenous injection of Parecoxib-sodium for injection 40 mg. Control group was given intravenous in-jection of 0.9% Sodium chloride injection 5 mL. The pain visual analogue scale(VAS),the frequency of patient controlled intrave-nous analgesia(PCA)and ADR were observed between 2 groups at different time points after surgery. RESULTS:VAS scores of observation group were significantly lower than those of control group 2,4,6,8 h after operation,and the frequency of PCA 0-4, 4-12,12-24,24-36 h after operation was significantly lower than control group,with statistical significance(P<0.05). There was no statistical significance in the incidence of ADR between 2 groups (P>0.05). CONCLUSIONS:The preemptive analgesia of parecoxib-sodium can effectively reduce pain degree of patients with breast cancer after radical mastectomy,the frequency of PCA, and do not increase the occurrence of ADR.

Objective To investigate clinical effect of combined laparoscopic and endoscopic submucosal resection for the gastric antrum-body tumors originated from the muscularis propria.Methods A total of 8 patients with gastric antrum-body tumors originated from the muscularis propria were treated by combined laparoscopic and endoscopic submucosal resection from Jan 2013 to Apr 2014.All patients were diagnosed as having gastric antrum-body tumors originated from the muscularis propria by preoperative endoscopic ultrasonography.Endoscopy showed that the surface mucosa of tumors were normal in all patients.Tumors were found in the gastric antrum-body front wall in 4 cases,and in the back wall in 2 cases,and in the lesser omental bursa in 1 case,and in the greater omental bursa in 1 case.The tumors size was from 1.5 to 3.5 cm,averaging (2.4 ± 0.7) cm.The therapeutic procedure included three phases.The lesion was first exposed with laparoscopy.Then,the fluid was injected into the submucosa in the part of tumor by endoscopy.Finally the tumor was resected by laparoscopy.These patients were followed up and analyzed retrospectively.Results Combined laparoscopic and endoscopic submucosal resection was successfully performed in all patients.All tumors were resected completely.Sever bleeding,infection or death were not found in any patients.Postoperative pathology and immunohistochemistry staining confirmed 6 stromal tumors and 2 neurofibroma.All patients were followed up for 6 months,and there was no recurrent case.Gastric mucosa and function were normal in all patients.Conclusion Combined laparoscopic and endoscopic submucosal resection is a simple,safe and effective method for gastric antrum-body tumors originated from the muscularis propria,and leads to little complication.

[Objective] To explore the techniques of hand-assisted laparoscopic splenectomy plus portozygos disconnection procedure. [Methods] 18 patients with portal hypertension were operated by hand-assisted laparoscopic splenectomy plus portozygos disconnection. [Results] The operations were completed successfully. The mean operative time was 180(150～260) minutes, the mean blood loss estimated was 540(200～2 000) mL, the mean weight of spleen was 910 (500～2000) g and the mean length of hospital stay was 9.7 (8～18) days after operation. All patients had recovered rapidly and suffered less pain and only 5 patients needed analgesic. The mean recovery time of the bowel function was 52(24～74) hours. The hand incisions healed well, and only one occurred complications and another suffered death. [ Conclusions ] Hand-assisted laparoscopic splenectomy plus portozygos disconnection procedure is to be feasible and safe, and has the merits of minimally invasive surgery.

Objective To study the feasibility and curative effect of laparoscopic radical resection of rectal carcinoma. Methods Sixty-two cases were enrolled in this study between Feb 2003 and Mar 2005, including 32 cases undergoing laparoscopic radical resection (19 Dixon and 13 Miles) , and 30 cases undergoing open radical resection (22 Dixons and 8 Miles). Results The mean operation time of laparoscopic group was 195 min, and open group was 156 min (P 0. 05 ). The GI and urination function of laparoscopic group recovered faster than open group ( evacuated was 2. 7 days vs. 3. 7 days, P

Objective To compare the clinical therapeutic results of percutaneous transluminal stenting between patients with acute and chronic aortic dissections. Methods From May 2002 to October 2007,42 patients with acute type B aortic dissection and 40 patients with chronic aortic dissection underwent stenting. The clinical data of the patients were analyzed. Results Comparing with the chronic aortic dissection group,the acute aortic dissection group had higher percentage of pleural effusion(16.7% vs 0,P=0.01)and visceral /leg ischemia(23.8% vs 2.5%,P=0.01). The acute aortic dissection group had higher complications in early term(38.1% vs 15.0%,P=0.02). All patients were followed up for an average of(18.7 ± 17.3)months. The rate of complications were higher in the patients with acute aortic dissection than those with chronic aortic dissection(21.4% vs 5.0%,P=0.03). Kaplan-Meier analysis showed no difference of survival rate between the 2 groups during follow-up period(P=0.38). The 5-year survival rate was 90.0% in acute aortic dissection group years and 92.5% in chronic aortic dissection group,respectively. The event-free survival rate was higher in the patients with chronic dissection than that with in the patients acute aortic dissection(P=0.04). Conclusions Percutaneous transluminal stenting is effective in the treatment of type B aortic dissection,but there are more complications in acute than in chronic aortic dissection group.

Objective To investigate the impact of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) program on postoperative recovery in patients undergoing laparoscopic colorectal resection. Methods Eighty-four patients undergoing laparoscopic colorectal resection from March 201 5 to June 201 6 (55 males,29 females,aged 36-78 years,ASA physical status Ⅰ or Ⅱ),were randomly divid-ed into two groups (n = 38 each).Patients in group E were received epidural block combined with general anesthesia,and a series of perfect ERAS strategies,such as strengthen preoperative educa-tion, maintaining perioperative normothermia, perioperative goal-directed fluid therapy, intraoperative and postoperative analgesia.While the patients in group C received routine anesthetic management.The volume of fluid,the nasopharyngeal temperature,the time of recovery of bouel sound,first anal exhaust,eating fluid food,ambulation and remove of the catheter were recorded in two groups.Furthermore,time of PACU after surgery,the total days of hospitalization and total hos-pital costs were recorded.Results The volume of fluid [(1 328 ± 64)ml vs.(2 463 ± 135 )ml]in group E were significantly lower than group C (P <0.05),the nasopharyngeal temperature [(36.2± 0.2)℃ vs.(35.1±0.5)℃]was significantly higher in group E (P <0.05).Compared with group C,the time of recovery of bowel sound [(33.4 ± 12.5 )h vs.(42.8 ± 14.3 )h],first anal exhaust [(43.6±13.9)h vs.(60.7±1 5.4)h],eating fluid food [(26.8±4.1)h vs.(67.4±13.5)h],first ambulation [(7.4±1.6)h vs.(26.5±3.8)h]and remove of the catheter [(29.2±6.1)h vs.(5 1.8 ±7.6) h ], time of PACU [(26.4 ± 8.5 ) min vs.(37.2 ± 1 1.6 ) min ], the total days of hospitalization [(7.5±0.9)d vs.(9.7±1.2)d]were significantly shorter (P <0.05),and hospital costs [(2.1±0.6)ten thousand yuan vs.(2.6±0.8)ten thousand yuan]were significantly decreased (P <0.05).The incidence of adverse reactions such as nausea and vomiting (2.4% vs.21.4%),pru-ritus (7.1% vs.23.8%),agitation (4.8% vs.26.2%)and chills (0% vs.1 9.0%)were significantly lower in group E (P <0.05).Conclusion ERAS program applied to patients undergoing laparoscopic colorectal resection can reduce the intraoperative sufentanil consumption,avoid the occurrence of postoperative hypothermia, accelerate recovery of gastrointestinal function, which can obviously reduce the hospitalization costs and shorten the hospitalization time.

Objective To investigate the clinical characteristics and surgical outcomes of pancreatic acinar cell carcinoma (PACC).Methods The clinical and follow up data of PACC patients treated with surgery in Zhongshan Hospital of Fudan University between 1999 and 2012 were analyzed retrospectively.Results A total of 16 PACC were identified including 13 male and 3 female patients.The age of the patients ranged from 38 to 71 with an average of 57 years old.Six patients presented as abdominal pain,while low back pain in 3 patients,abdominal distention in 2 patients,emaciation in 2 patients,jaundice in 2 patients and melena in 1 patient.Elevated CA19-9 level was observed in 8 patients and 2 patients had elevated serum CEA.The tumors were located in the uncinate process in 1 patient,head in 9,body and tail in 6.The superior mesenteric vein was invaded in 2 cases and 1 patient had hepatic artery invasion.The tumor invaded both the celiac trunk and splenic artery in 1 patient.One patient had just undergone intra-operative needle aspiration biopsy due to unresectable tumor.All the other 15 patients underwent surgical excision with R0 resection.Among the 10 patients received pancreaticoduodenectomy,2 had superior mesenteric vein resection and replacement and 1 had hepatic artery resection.Five patients underwent distal pancreatectomy without spleen preservation.The mean size of these tumors was 5.7 cm × 4.6 cm,12 cases had a surrounding envelope,while lymphatic metastasis was observed in 8 cases.The follow up data of 15 patients were collected and the median postoperative survival was 21 months,and the survival rate of 1,3,5 year was 71.4％,28.6％,7.1％.Conclusions Pre-operative diagnosis of PACC is extremely difficult due to lack of specific clinical features and lab tests.Surgery is the first line treatment for PACC,and the prognosis of PACC is better than that of pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma.

Objective To compare the short-term efficacy of pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy (PPPD) and standard pancreaticoduodenectomy (SPD) for the treatment of periampullary carcinoma.Methods The clinical data of 85 patients with periampullary carcinoma who were admitted to the Zhongshan Hospital of Fudan University from October 2010 to October 2012 were retrospectively analyzed.Forty-four patients who underwent PPPD were divided into the PPPD group and 41 patients who underwent SPD were divided into the SPD group.The pancreatic fistula(Grade B and above), biliary fistula, blood loss, intra-abdominal infection, delayed gastric emptying (DGE) and prognosis were analyzed.Patients were followed up by telephone interview and outpatient examination once every 3 months within postoperative 1 year and once every 6 months within postoperative 2-3 years till October 2014.Count data were analyzed using the chi-square test, measurement data with normal distribution were presented as M(Qn) and comparison was analyzed using the Mann-Whitney U test.The survival curve was drawn by the Kaplan-Meier method, and survival rate was analyzed using the Log rank test.Results The operation time was 195 minutes (180 minutes, 240 minutes) in the PPPD group and 210 minutes (180 minutes,300 minutes) in the SPD group, with a significant difference (Z =-2.090, P ＜ 0.05).The volume of intraoperative blood loss, intraoperative blood transfusion and duration of postoperative hospital stay were 200 mL(113 mL,288 mL), 0 mL(0 mL, 0 mL) and 17 days(12 days, 24 days) in the PPPD group, and 200 mL(150 mL, 325 mL),0 mL(0 mL, 400 mL) and 16 days(12 days, 30 days) in the SPD group respectively, with no significant differences between the 2 groups (Z =-1.185,-1.780,-0.533, P ＞0.05).There was no perioperative death and incidence of overall complication was 42.4％ (36/85) with pancreatic fistula, intra-abdominal infection and DGE as the top 3 common postoperative complications.The incidence of DGE was 20.5％ (9/44) in the PPPD group,which was significantly different from 4.9％ (2/41) in the SPD group (x2=4.571, P ＜ 0.05).The incidence of pancreatic fistula, biliary fistula, intra-abdominal infection, postoperative bleeding and 2 or more complications were 20.5 ％ (9/44), 2.3 ％ (1/44), 15.9％ (7/44), 4.5 ％ (2/44), 25.0％ (11/44) in the PPPD group, and 14.6％ (6/41), 4.9％ (2/41), 19.5％ (8/41), 7.3％ (3/41), 14.6％ (6/41) in the SPD group, respectively, showing no significant difference between the 2 groups (x2=0.495, 0.423, 0.295, 0.190, 1.425, P ＞ 0.05).Eighty-five patients were followed up for 6-47 months with a median time of 31 months, and postoperative overall 1-and 3-year survival rates were 95.3％ and 75.5％, respectively.The 1-and 3-year survival rates were 97.7％ and 78.9％ in the PPPD group, and 92.7％ and 71.7％ in the SPD group, respectively, with no significant difference in 3-year survival rate (x2=0.690, P ＞0.05).The 3-year overall survival rate was 80.5％ in patients without lymph node involvement (LNI) compared with 54.9％ in patients with LNI, showing a significant difference (x2=4.290, P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions Both PPPD and SPD have good short-term efficacy for periampullary carcinoma.There is no significant difference between PPPD and SPD concerning short-term survival rate of periampullary carcinoma.PPPD has shorter operation time, but has a higher postoperative DGE incidence.LNI is a significant prognostic factor for short-term survival of periampullary carcinoma.PPPD is not recommended while the lymph nodes are involved.
