Purpose: To investigate the expression of KAI1 protein and its clinicopathological significance in breast cancer. Methods: Immunohistochemical staining ( S-P method) was used to detect the expression of KAI1 protein in specimens from 107 breast cancer and 30 adjacent normal breast tissues. Results: KAI1 protein positive rate in breast cancer tissues is significantly lower than that of adjacent nomal breast( P 0. 05). Conclusions: These data suggest that in advanced breast cancer, KAI1 is down-regulated and decrease in KAI1 ecpression plays an important role in the malignant progression of breast cancer. Therefore, detection of KAI1 protein might be a potentially valuable indicator for staging human breast cancer and predicting prognosis.

Objective To explore the reasons,diagnosis and treatment of residual cholecystitis(RCC) with gallstones. Methods The clinical data of 36 RCC patients with gallstones identified by operation were retrospectively analyzed. Results All the 36 patients were cured by reoperation. Residual cholecystectomy was performed on 8 patients, and residual cholecystecomy plus common bile duct exploration and T tube drainage on 28 patients. Thirty one patients were followed up for 3 months to 12 years,93.55% of the patients had good results. Conclusions The main reason of residual cholecystitis with gallstones was not followed the principle of "identify cut identify" during cholecystectomy .The clinical presentation of RCC is similar to that of cholecystitis with gallstones .The accurate rate of auxiliary examinations is low,so the results of these exammations should be analyzed comprehensivly in the diagnosis. The principle of "identify cut identify" should be followed during the reoperation. The common bile duct and common hepatic duct should be opened first and then the residual gall be resected.

Objective To explore the classification and surgical management of pancreatic duct stones.Methods The clinical data of 54 patients with pancreatic duct stones who were admitted to the People's Hospital of Hunan Province from June 1994 to November 2009 were retrospectively analyzed. Stones were found in the head of the pancreas (type Ⅰ ) in 31 patients, in the body and tail of the pancreas (type Ⅱ ) in 7 patients, and in all the pancreas (type Ⅲ ) in 16 patients. According to the types of the pancreatic duct stones, ten patients (6 with type Ⅰ , two with type Ⅱ and two with type Ⅲ pancreatic duct stones) received opening of the main pancreatic duct + pancreaticojejunostomy or pancreaticogastrostomy ( group A). Twenty-four patients ( 16 with type Ⅰ and eight with type Ⅲ pancreatic duct stones) received pancreaticoduodenectomy (group B). Fifteen patients (nine with type Ⅰ and six with type Ⅱ pancreatic duct stones) received subtotal resection of pancreatic head preserving duodenum (group C). Five patients with type Ⅱ pancreatic duct stones received resection of the body and tail of the pancreas and the spleen (group D). All data were analyzed using the t test. Results The mean operation time, blood loss, length of postoperative stay and hospital charges of group A were (2.2 ± 1.2)hours,( 127 ±24)ml,( 11.4 ±4.3) days and (3.24 ± 1.15 ) × 104 yuan, respectively. Five out of nine patients who were followed up had stone recurrence. The mean operation time, blood loss, length of postoperative stay and hospital charges of group B were (7.6 ± 1.1 ) hours, (409 ± 37 ) ml, ( 18.9 ± 2.5 ) days and (7.93 ± 1.35 ) × 104 yuan, respectively.No stone recurrence was detected in the 21 patients who were followed up. The mean operation time, blood loss,length of postoperative stay and hospital charges of group C were (4. 1 ± 0.7 ) hours, ( 156 ± 63 ) ml, ( 10.3 ±2.1 )days and (4. 12 ± 1.22) × 104 yuan, respectively. No stone recurrence was detected in the 15 patients who were followed up. The mean operation time, blood loss, length of postoperative stay and hospital charges of group D were (3.3 ± 1.4) hours, ( 185 ± 36 ) ml, ( 9.3 ± 2.0) days and ( 3.22 ± 1.05 ) × 104 yuan, respectively. No complication was detected after the operation, and no stone recurrence was detected in the three patients who were followed up. There were significant differences in the mean operation time, blood loss, length of postoperative stay and hospital charges between patients with type Ⅰ and Ⅲ pancreatic duct stones who received pancreaticoduodenectomy and subtotal resection of pancreatic head preserving duodenum (t = 12. 143, 14. 099, 11. 550, 9. 103,P < 0.05 ). Conclusions Classification of the pancreatic duct stones is important for choosing the proper surgical procedure. Subtotal resection of pancreatic head preserving duodenum is ideal for the treatment of patients with type Ⅰ or Ⅱ pancreatic duct stones.

Objective To evaluate the application value of right hemihepatic blood flow occlusion in the anatomical right posterior lobectomy. Methods Clinical data of 81 patients undergoing anatomical right posterior lobectomy in Hunan Provincial People's Hospital between January 2010 and February 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into three groups according to the methods of liver blood lfow occlusion. In the right hemihepatic blood lfow occlusion group (methodⅠgroup), there were 26 cases including 12 males and 14 females with a mean of (48±9) years. In the regional blood flow occlusion of right posterior lobe group (method Ⅱ group), there were 34 cases including 15 males and 19 females with a mean of (48±10) years. In the Pringle's maneuver group (methodⅢgroup),there were 21 cases including 10 males and 11 females with a mean of (48±10) years. The informed consents of all patients were obtained and the local ethical committee approval was received. In methodⅠgroup, the right hepatic pedicle occluding band was prepared for spare, or the right hepatic artery and the right branch of portal vein were dissected and occluded separately. In methodⅡgroup, the right posterior branch of right hepatic artery and the right posterior branch of portal vein were separated, ligated and resected on the basis of methodⅠ. In methodⅢgroup, porta hepatis was not dissected. The operation time, intraoperative hemorrhage volume and blood transfusion were observed in three groups. Clinical data among three groups were compared by one-way ANOVA and LSD-t test. Results The operation time in methodⅠgroup was (168±52) min, which was significantly shorter compared with (216±39) and (193±43) min in method Ⅱ and method Ⅲgroup (LSD-t=-4.093, -1.772; P<0.05). The intraoperative hemorrhage volume in method Ⅰ group was (200±62) ml, which was signiifcantly less compared with (403±38) and (303±37) ml in methodⅡand methodⅢ group (LSD-t=-15.671, -12.735; P<0.05). Conclusion Right hemihepatic blood flow occlusion is a safe and feasible technique for controlling hemorrhage during the anatomical right posterior lobectomy, which signiifcantly decreases the intraoperative hemorrhage volume, shortens operation time and reduces surgical risk.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of perihilar surgical techniques for diffuse hepatolithiasis.Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 122 patients with diffuse hepatolithiasis who were admitted to Hunan Provincial People's Hospital from January 2010 to December 2015 were collected. There were 39 males and 83 females, aged from 21 to 82 years, with a median age of 51 years. After perihilar hepatectomy, the first, second and third divisions of hepatic ducts were opened longitudinally. Strictures in the bile ducts were relieved by stricturoplasty and internal bile duct anastomosis, and stones were removed by multiple methods under direct vision. After resection of severe atrophic liver segment along the plane of hepatic atrophy or bile duct stricture, T-tube or hepaticojejunos-tomy was used for internal drainage. Observation indicators: (1) surgical situations; (2) stricture relief and stone removal. (3) Follow-up. Follow-up was conducted by Wechat, telephone interview or outpatient examination. Patients were followed up once every 3 months in the postoperative 1 year through liver function and abdominal B-ultrasound examination. Subsequently, liver function and abdominal B-ultrasound were reexamined once a year. Magnetic resonance cholangiopancreato-graphy and computed tomography were performed when cholangitis or stone recurrence was suspected to analyze stone recurrence and patient survival. The follow-up was up to July 2020. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Count data were expressed as absolute numbers or percentages. Results:(1) Surgical situations: for the 122 patients, the operation time, hepatic portal occlusion time, volume of intraoperative blood loss, duration of postoperative hospital stay were (253±71)minutes, 15 minutes(range, 14?38 minutes), 200 mL(range, 100?1 100 mL), (12±5)days. Postoperative complications occurred to 40 of 122 patients. There were 9 cases of incision infection, 8 cases of bile leakage (5 cases of bile leakage at hepatic section, 3 cases of choledochojejunostomy leakage), 8 cases of septicemia, 7 cases of pleural effusion, 5 cases of abdominal abscess, 3 cases of liver failure, 1 case of biliary bleeding. Some patients had multiple complications. Among the 122 patients, 2 cases died after operation, including 1 case of postoperative liver failure and 1 case of disseminated intravascular coagulation caused by biliary-intestinal anastomotic leakage complicated with sepsis. Patients with bile leakage and abdominal abscess were improved after puncture and drainage under the guidance of B-ultrasound. Patients with cholangiojejunal anastomotic bleeding were embolized through the right hepatic artery. The other complications were improved after conservative treatment. (2) Stricture relief and stone removal: 85 of 88 patients with biliary stricture were relieved, with the stricture relief rate of 96.59%(85/88). Among the 122 patients, 103 cases had stones completely removed and 19 cases had residual stones. The immediate stone clearance rate was 84.43%(103/122). Of the 19 patients with residual stones, choledochoscopy was refused in 3 cases and choledochoscope lithotripsy was performed in 16 cases, of which 7 cases were removed and 9 cases were still residual stones. Of the 122 patients, 110 cases were finally removed stones, 12 cases were eventually residual stones, and the final stone clearance rate was 90.16%(110/122). (3) Follow-up: among the 122 patients, 120 cases including 110 cases with find stone removal and 10 cases with residual stones were followed up for (78±14)months. The 1-, 3, 5-year stone recurrence rates of 120 patients were 0.83%(1/120), 6.67%(8/120), 9.17%(11/120), respectively. The 1-, 3-, 5-year stone recurrence rates of 110 patients with final stone removal were 0, 5.45%(6/110), 5.45%(6/110), respectively. The number of cases with stone recurrence at postoperative 1-, 3- and 5-year of 10 patients with residual stones were 1, 2, 5 cases, respectively. Of 120 patients with follow-up, 1 case died of end-stage liver disease, and the other patients had good survival.Conclusion:Perihilar surgical techniques for diffuse hepatolithiasis is safe and effective.
