Objective To investigate the value of three-dimensional visualization system in the treatment of hilar cholangiocarcinoma.Methods The clinical data of 10 patients with hilar cholangiocarcinoma who were admitted to Chenggong Hospital of Xiamen University from January 2012 to September 2012 were retrospectively analyzed.The two-dimensional computed tomography images were converted to three-dimensional images with the three-dimensional visualization system,and then the volume of liver and tumor size,volume of liver to be resected,remnant liver volume were measured.Surgical procedure was planned based on the three-dimensional images,and the difference between the actual and planned surgical procedures was analyzed.The correlation between actual liver resection volume and predicted liver resection volume was analyzed by calculating the Pearson correlation coefficient.Results The mean liver volume,tumor size,predicted liver resection volume and remnant liver volume of the 10 patients detected by the three-dimensional visualization system were (1496 ± 162) ml,(67 ± 18) ml,(335 ± 241)ml and (1140 ± 197)ml,respectively.The average error rate of predicted liver resection volume was 6.4%.Surgical plan was made in accordance with the principle of curative hepatectomy,including 4 cases of left semihepatectomy,2 cases of right semihepatectomy,3 cases of partial liver resection and 1 case of palliative liver resection.The coincidence rate between the planned and actual surgical procedures was 9/10.R0 resection was performed on 7 patients,R1 resection on 1 patient and palliative resection on 2 patients.One patient received restrictive portal vein arterialization.Preoperative evaluation of the anatomy of blood vessels,bile ducts and tumors based on three-dimensional images was confirmed with operative findings.The accuracy of tumor typing by the three-dimensional visualization system was 8/10.The actual liver resection volume was (325 ± 258) ml,which was positively correlated with the predicted liver resection volume (r =0.902,P < 0.05).Conclusion The three-dimensional visualization system is helpful in the treatment of hilar cholangiocarcinoma.

Objective To report a simple and safe method for in situ fenestration of left subclavian artery in thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR). Methods Twenty-eight patients received in situ fenestration of left subclavian artery in TEVAR from June 2018 to May 2019 in our center, including 23 males and 5 females at an average age of 57.7±9.6 years. Among them, 12 patients used adjustable sheath or guiding catheter (a group A) and 16 patients used "J. D" technique (a group B). The clinical efficacy of the two groups was compared. Results In the group A, 1 patient failed to receive fenestration and was transferred to the chimney technique. In the group B, 1 patient due to the traction system shift during operation, was completed by traditional adjustable sheath puncture. The group B had shorter alignment-perforation time and trigger time and less complications. There was no significant difference in endoleak during short-term follow-up between the two groups. Conclusion The "J. D" technique is simple, safe and easy to obtain materials. It effectively reduces the risk caused by difficult sheath alignment during the in situ fenestration of the left subclavian artery. Although the results of recent follow-up are not significantly different from traditional methods, it still needs to accumulate the cases to observe the possible risks and difficulties.
