Objective:
To compare the efficacy of modified pancreaticojejunostomy with traditional pancreaticojejunostomy following pancreaticoduodenectomy, and to investigate the risk factors of postoperative pancreatic fistula.
Methods:
Clinical data of 68 patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy between October 2017 and October 2018 at the Second Department of Biliary Tract Surgery, Eastern Hepatobiliary Surgery Hospital was retrospectively collected and analyzed.According to the method of pancreaticojejunostomy, the patients were divided into two groups: modified pancreaticojejunostomy group (34 patients) and traditional pancreaticojejunostomy group (34 patients). There were 18 males and 16 females, aged (60.4±9.6) years of modified pancreaticojejunostomy groups; there were 17 males and 18 females, aged (58.9±10.9) years of traditional pancreaticojejunostomy group. The major postoperative complications such as pancreatic fistula were compared between the two groups, and the risk factors of postoperative pancreatic fistula were analyzed by univariate and multivariate analyses.
Results:
All of the 68 operations were successfully completed. The overall incidence of postoperative complications was 51.5% (35/68). The incidence of postoperative pancreatic fistula was 13.2% (9/68), of which all were cases of grade B.There were 16 patients (23.5%) occurred with abdominal infection, and 11 patients (16.2%) occurred with delayed gastric emptying, including 1 case of grade A, 1 case of grade B and 9 cases of grade C.And 9 patients (13.2%) occurred with postoperative bleeding was, including 2 cases of mild bleeding, 5 cases of moderate bleeding, and 2 cases of severe bleeding.Biliary leakage occurred in one patient (1.5%) and chylous leakage occurred in two patients (2.9%). The modified pancreaticojejunostomy could significantly reduce the incidence of postoperative bleeding compared with control group (χ2=4.610,

Objective:
To discuss the rationality of stage pT3 in the AJCC 8th TNM criteria of gallbladder carcinoma.
Methods:
A retrospective study was performed to analyze the clinical and pathological data of 88 patients with pT3 gallbladder carcinoma admitted to Department of Second Biliary Surgery of Eastern Hepatobiliary Surgery Hospital, affiliated to Naval Medical University from May 2013 to September 2018.pT3 stage tumors were divided into two groups: (1) pT3a stage: tumors had penetrated serosa but not directly invaded liver and/or an adjacent organ or structure; (2) pT3b stage: tumor penetrating serosa and directly invaded liver and/or an adjacent organ or structure. There were 45 patients with pT3a stage, including 15 males and 30 females, aged 36 to 80 years, with a median age of 59 years; 43 patients with pT3b, including 24 males and 19 females, aged 41 to 78 years old, median aged 63 years old.Patients with pT3a and pT3b were further divided into two groups respectively: radical resection group and extended radical resection group according to surgical radicalization.
