Objective:To evaluate the feasibility and clinical effectiveness of placing a nasointestinal ileus tube (NTI) during extensive adhesive bowel obstruction (ABO) surgery.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical and follow-up data of 60 patients with extensive ABO admitted to the Department of General Surgery of Daxing District Hospital of Capital Medical University from April 2019 to April 2021, of which 30 patients underwent intraoperative NIT intraintestinal alignment (observation group) and 30 patients who did not undergo NIT intraintestinal alignment (control group) during the same period. There were 12 males and 18 females in the observation group. There were 16 males and 14 females in the control group. The operation time, gastrointestinal function recovery time, discharge time, total effective rate and postoperative complication rate were compared between the two groups, and the quantitative data of the recurrence rate of intestinal obstruction at 24 months after surgery were expressed as mean ± standard deviation ( ± s), and the t-test was used for comparison between groups. Numerological data were presented as cases (percentage) [ n (%)], and chi-square tests were used for comparison between groups. Results:All patients were successfully completed the surgery and discharged from the hospital. There was no statistically significant difference in total effective rate between the control group and the observation group( χ2=3.16, P=0.237). The surgical time in the observation group was slightly longer than that in the control group [(110.6±4.6) min vs (94.3±2.5) min, t=17.27, P=0.001]. The recovery time of gastrointestinal function and hospitalization time in the observation group were shorter than those in the control group[(8.13±1.00) d vs (8.70±0.70) d, t=2.53, P=0.014; (12.83±1.57) d vs (13.67±1.03) d, t=0.03, P=0.018]. The incidence of postoperative complications was lower than that in the control group (10% vs 30%, P=0.028), and the difference was statistically significant. Conclusion:Intraoperative application of NIT is safe and effective, and can significantly reduce the recurrence rate of postoperative intestinal obstruction.

Objective:To explore whether endoscopic surgery can achieve the same effect on thyroid cancer as open surgery.Method:44 cases were selected to endoscopic thyroidectomy with breast areola approach, who were prepared to accept the surgical treatment of thyroid cancer with cT1N0 stages, female, ≤60 years old, no history of neck surgery and beauty desire. Fifty patients with the same conditions undergoing thyroid open surgery were as the control group.Results:Operative time of endoscopic group[ (170.0±28.0) min] was longer than that of the open operation group[ (90.0±21.0) min ( t=15.610, P=0.000) ]. There was no significant difference between the two groups in surgical complications ( P>0.05) . There was no statistical difference between the number of paratracheal and anterior tracheal lymph nodes of endoscopic group (6.0 ±4.2) and open surgery group (5.5 ±3.7) ( t=0.692, P>0.05) . There was no statistical difference between the number of anterior laryngeal lymph nodes of endoscopic group (0.7 ±1.1) and open surgery group (0.5 ±0.9) ( t=1.186, P>0.05) . Conclusion:The breast areola approach endoscopic thyroidectomy is safe and reliable in treatment of thyroid cancer, and the central cervical lymph node dissection is sufficient, which can be used as the choice of operation mode for thyroid cancer patients in cT1N0 stage.
