Objective To study the feasibility and safety of laparoscopic hepatic caudate lobe resec tion.Methods The clinical data of seven patients who underwent laparoscopic hepatic caudate lobe resection in our hospital were retrospective analyzed.There were 3 male and 4 female patients.The mean age was 45.3 years.The primary diseases included hepatic haemangioma (n =2),metastatic liver cancer (n =2),hepatocellular carcinoma (n =1),recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma (n =1) and hepatic adenoma (n =1).The total blood loss,operation time,hospital stay after surgery and complication were analyzed.Results The surgery was successful in all these 7 patients and no patients required any conversion to open surgery.Five patients underwent partial caudate lobe resection,and the remaining 2 underwent combined left hemi hepatectomy with partial caudate lobe resection.The operation time ranged from 200 to 250 minutes with a mean of 235 minutes.The intraoperative blood loss ranged from 40 to 600 ml with a mean of 188 ml.There was no postoperative bleeding and bile leakage.The resections were all R0 resections.Conclusions Laparoscopic hepatic caudate lobe resection was safe and feasible in appropriate patients.Familiarity with anatomy of the liver caudate lobe and skilled laparoscopic techniques are important to carry out this surgery.

Objective To investigate the practicability and safety of laparoscopic anatomical hepatectomy.Method 40 patients with space occupying lesions in the liver underwent laparoscopic anatomical hepatectomy between Jan.2008 and Mar.2012.The diagnoses were hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) (n=13),recurrent HCC (n =1 ),cholangiocarcinoma ( n =1 ),metastatic cancer ( n=6),hepatolithiasis (n=10),hemangioma (n=7),FNH (n=1) and liver cell adenoma (n =1).Intraoperative ultrasound was routinely performed to locate lesions and intrahepatic structures.Selective hemihepatic vascular occlusion was applied during resection. High frequency cautery,CUSA and Ligasure were used to transect liver parenchyma. Hemolocks were applied when large blood vessels and bile ducts were encountered.Endo-GIA was used if necessary.The operations included right hemihepatectomy (n =3),left hemihepatectomy (n =10),resections of segment Ⅴ and Ⅵ (n=5),segment Ⅴ (n=3),segment Ⅵ (n =4),and segment Ⅳb (n =1).Result34 hepatectomics were performed laparoscopically.6 patients were converted to open surgery.There was no perioperative death. The operating time was 250.21±50.94 min,and intraoperative blood loss was 420.20± 120.10 ml.Bile leakage was diagnosed in 2 patients after operation.Conclusion With careful patient selection,and improvement in surgical technique and apparatus,laparoscopic anatomical hepatectomy has become safe and practicable.The operation has the advantages of minimal invasion and rapid recovery. It can be regarded as a standard procedure for selected benign and malignant lesions.

Objective To investigate the expression of 14-3-3 β in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESSC) tissue,and to explore the relationship between 14-3-3 β and clinicopathological factors,prognosis.Methods The 14-3-3 β expressed in tumors and adjacent normal epithelia from 78 esophageal squamous cell carcinoma patients was detected by immunohistochemical staining.Results The mild and strong expression in the nucleus of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and adjacent tissues was 62.8％ (49/78) and 17.9％ (14/78),there was significant difference (P ＜ 0.01).The mild and strong expression in the cytoplasm of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma and adjacent tissues was 69.2％ (54/78) and 29.5％ (23/78),there was significant difference (P ＜ 0.01).The 14-3-3 β was associated with the differentiation degree of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma(P ＜ 0.01).It had nothing to do with sex,age,TNM stage,size and survival rate (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The expression of 14-3-3 β is significantly up-regulated in esophageal squamous cell carcinoma patients.The expression of 14-3-3 β in the nucleus and cytoplasm is higher and has positively associated with tumor differentiation degree.

Objective To investigate the role of endoplasmic reticulum stress ( ERS) in human brain gliomas cell(SHG-44) apoptosis induced by proteasome inhibitor MG-132. Methods Human glioma cells were passage cultured. Glioma cells were treated by MG-132 with varying concentration(5, 10, 15 and 50 μmol/L) for 24 h. Compared with cells prior to the treatment (control group), cell viability was detected by MTT assay and the expression of ERS associated proteins GRP78 and apoptosis associated proteins Caspsse-12 was examined by PCR and Western-blotting. Results After MG-132 treatment for 24 h, SHG-44 cell viability was decreased significantly (39 %) (P <0.05), and continued to show a significant decline with the increasing concentration of MG-132 (P <0.05). RT-PCR results showed that the expression of ERS associated proteins GRP78 in SHG-44 cells were significantly increased after 5, 10, 15 and 50 μmol/L MG-132 treatment, and the expression of Caspase-12 was significantly increased after 5 μmol/L MG-132 treatment, slightly increased after 10 and 15 μmol/L treatment compared with that after 5 μmol/L treatment and reached the peak after 50 μmol/L treatment. Western-blotting results of GRP78 in SHG-44 cells were same as results of RT-PCR. Conclusion ERS may be involved in the apoptosis of gliomas cells induced by proteasome inhibitor MG-132.

Objective To study the feasibility and safety of pure laparoscopic right hemihepatectomy for hepatocellular carcinoma via the anterior approach.Methods The data of five patients with hepatocellular carcinoma who underwent pure laparoscopic right hemihepatectomy at the First People's Hospital of Foshan between December 2013 and December 2016 were retrospectively analyzed.Patients'operation time,blood loss,blood transfusion rate,surgical margins,hospital stay,complication and short term outcomes were reviewed.Results All the five patients completed pure laparoscopic right hemihepatectomy without conversion to open surgery.The average (range) operation time was 6.0 (5 ～ 8) h.The average blood loss was 340 (110 ～ 600) ml.No patient received blood transfusion.The average surgical margin was 2.4 (1 ～4.5) cm.The average postoperative hospital stay was 7 (4 ～ 15) d.The average follow-up was 22 (2 ～38) months.Three patients experienced postoperative complications,which included ascites,pleural effusion,and ascites accompanied by biliary leakage,respectively.The last patient recovered well from drainage.No liver failure,cancer recurrence or death was noted.Conclusions This study demonstrated that pure laparoscopic right hemihepatotectomy via the anterior approach is a minimally invasive procedure which has the advantage of fast postoperative recovery.It was feasible and safe to treat hepatocellular carcinoma with favorable short-term outcomes.

Objective To investigate the effect of cisternostomy on the prognosis of patients with traumatic brain injury (TBI).Methods A retrospective case control study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 46 patients with TBI admitted to Shanxi Dayi Hospital from May 2017 to September 2018.There were 37 males and nine females,aged 24-80 years [(49.8 ± 15.7)years].The injury severity score (ISS) was 6-42 points [(25.0 ± 8.2)points],and the Glasgow Coma score (GCS) was 3-14 points [(3.4 ± 1.7) points].Twenty-three patients underwent routine surgery only (control group),and 23 patients underwent cisternostomy (cisternostomy group) on the basis of routine surgery.Intracranial pressure monitoring was performed in both groups before surgery.The postoperative intracranial pressure,intracranial pressure 1 week after operation,postoperative mechanical ventilation time,neurosurgical ICU (NICU) time,postoperative dehydration dose,decompressive craniectomy rate,postoperative infection rate,mortality rate,length of hospital stay,GCS at discharge,and Glasgow outcome score (GOS) of 3 months of follow-up were compared between the two groups.Results Compared with the control group,the cistemostomy group had lower postoperative intracranial pressure [(7.1 ± 5.7) mmHg vs.(14.2 ± 12.0) mmHg)],intracranial pressure 1 week after operation [(11.8 ± 0.5) mmHg vs.(14.0 ± 0.7) mmHg],postoperative dosage of dehydrating agent [0 (0-500.0) ml vs.1 275 (787.5-3 812.5) ml] and decompression rate (57％ ∶ 91％) (P ＜ 0.05).There were no significant differences between the cistemostomy group and control group in postoperative mechanical ventilation time [120 (42.0-225.0)hours vs.89(65.5-203.5)hours],NICU time [236(182.0-340.5)hoursvs.281 (114-400)hours],postoperative infection rate (4％ vs.0),mortality rate (13％ vs.39％) and hospital stay [32 (20.0-44.5) hours vs.25 (12.0-30.5)hours] (P ＞ 0.05).The cisternostomy group had higher GCS score at discharge than the control group [(10.7 ± 4.2) points vs.(7.9 ± 4.2) points] (P ＜ 0.05).After 3 months of follow-up,18 patients in the cisternostomy group showed good prognosis,better than that in the control group (11 patients) (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion For TBI patients,cisternostomy can clear the blood cerebrospinal fluid,reduce harmful metabolic products in the brain,reduce intracranial pressure and hence improve the prognosis of patients.

Objective To summarize the feasibility and safety of fast perfusion through abdominal aorta and portal vein in combined liver and kidney procurement from organ donation. Methods Clinical data of 43 donors of donation after cardiac death (DCD)undergoing combined liver and kidney procurement in the First People’s Hospital of Foshan from September 201 1 to June 2014 were analyzed retrospectively. Among the 43 donors,15 cases were China DCD donor category Ⅰ (donor after brain death) (C-Ⅰ),1 case was category Ⅱ (donor after cardiac death) (C-Ⅱ)and 27 cases were categoryⅢ(C-Ⅲ). Combined abdominal aorta and portal vein perfusion with fast cannulation were performed. Results The time from abdomen incision to abdominal aorta cannulation was 1.5-2.0 min. Forty-three livers and eighty-six kidneys were procured from 43 donors. The warm ischemia time (WIT)was 0 for C-Ⅰ donors,and was 3-21 min for the other donors (mean:10 min). Two liver grafts were discarded for major injury of the porta hepatis and severe fatty liver respectively. Eighteen kidney grafts were discarded for kidney stones, kidney atrophy, high level of preoperative serum creatinine,severe renal atherosclerosis,renal microvessel thrombosis,multiple renal cyst, kidney traumatic rupture,etc. The total discard rate of donor organs was 16%. Conclusions Fast perfusion through abdominal aorta and portal vein is a simple and safe method in combined procurement liver and kidney from organ donation.

group was significantly longer than that in the low MELD score group (P <0.05).And there was no significant difference in the length of hospital stay,mortality during hospitalization,incidence of early complications, follow-up time and overall survival rate between two groups (all in P >0.05).The peak level of aspartate aminotransferase (AST)in the high MELD score group was significantly higher compared with that in the low MELD score group (P <0.05 ).The incidence of bile leakage,abdominal abscess and liver dysfunction significantly differed between two groups (all in P <0.05 ).Conclusions It is a safe and short-term efficacious approach to perform liver transplantation with organs obtained from Chinese donation after citizens’ death in patients with high MELD score liver recipients.

Objective To summarize the clinical experience of combined liver and kidney procurement from pediatric organ donation. Methods Clinical data of 6 pediatric donors undergoing combined liver and kidney procurement in the First People's Hospital of Foshan from October 2011 to December 2016 were collected and relevant clinical experience was summarized. Results According to the diagnostic criteria for brain death (for children) established by Brain Injury Evaluation Quality Control Center of National Health and Family Planning Commission, 6 pediatric donors received combined liver and kidney procurement for organ donation under the status of brain death. Modified liver-kidney perfusion was performed by external iliac arterial intubation using No.7 suction catheter, or arteria iliaca communis intubation using 24 F catheter for the perfusion of portal vein and abdominal aorta, thoracic aorta occlusion. The operation time was 55-60 min. A total of 6 liver grafts and 12 renal grafts were harvested, which were successfully applied in clinical liver and renal transplantation. No primary nonfunction was observed in the liver or renal grafts. Conclusions Timely assessment of brain death, rigorous and cautious measures for organ maintenance and modified techniques for combined liver and kidney procurement play a key role in the success of combined liver and kidney procurement from pediatric organ donation.

Objective:To investigate the efficacy of osteochondral fragment fixation using bioabsorbable pins for Hepple Ⅱ osteochondral lesions of the talus (OLT) in adolescents.Methods:Retrospective case analysis was used. The clinical data and follow-up results of 13 adolescent patients (13 feet) with Hepple Ⅱ OLT were all treated with osteochondral fragment fixation using bioabsorbable pins admitted to Shanghai Sixth People′s Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from January 2017 to December 2021 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 7 males and 6 females, with 13 right feet. The age was (14.85±2.23) years old, ranged from 12 to 18 years old. According to the American orthopedic foot and ankle society (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot score, visual analogue scale (VAS) and SF-36 score before operation and at the last follow-up were used to evaluate the efficacy and function of the patients. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as mean ± standard deviation( ± s), and the comparison between groups was conducted using the t-test; The mearsurement data with skewness distribution were expressed by M( Q1, Q3), and rank-sum test was used for inter-group comparison. Results:Thirteen adolescent patients (13 feet) with Hepple Ⅱ OLT underwent surgery successfully and were followed up for (25.54±9.95) months. All wounds healed by first intention, and no complications such as wound infection and delayed healing occurred. Preoperative AOFAS ankle-posterior foot score, VAS and SF-36 score were 58.62±3.55, 7.00 (6.50, 8.00) and 68.38±4.81, respectively. At the last follow-up, the scores were 97.38±2.73, 1.00 (0.00, 1.00), 91.15±4.28, respectively, and the results were significantly improved at the last follow-up, with the difference between the two groups statistically significant( P<0.05). Conclusion:Osteochondral fragment fixation using bioabsorbable pins which can promote cartilage repair, significantly improve symptoms, and achieve better clinical satisfaction with fewer complications, is a safe and effective surgical treatment option for Hepple Ⅱ OLT in adolescents with satisfactory short-term clinical outcomes.
