Objective To evaluate the efficacy of entecavir treatment on hepatitis B patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure. Methods Eighty-four hepatitis B patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure were treated with entecavir 0.5 mg daily and Other routine drugs. Another 99 hepatitis B patients with acute-on-chronic liver failure were treated with only routine drugs as control. The survival, liver functions, hepatitis B virus (HBV) DNA level, prothrombin time (PT) were observed. The survival rates of patients with early, middle or late stage of liver failure were analyzed. The comparison of rates were done using chi-square test. The numeration data were compared by t test. The survival rates were compared using Kaplan-Meier method. Results Among patients with early stage of acute-on-chronic liver failure, the survival rate in treatment group was 63.3% (31/49), which was significantly higher than that in control group (39.7%, 23/58) (χ2=5.923, P=0.015). Among patients with middle stage of acute-on-chronic liver failure, the surviral rate in treatment group was 63.0% (17/27), which was significantly higher than that in control group (35.1%, 13/37) (χ2=4.854, P=0.028). Among patients with late stage of acute-on-chronic liver failure, four out of eight cases survived in treatment group, while one out of four cases survived in control group. In patients with serum total hilirubin (TBil) level > 342 μmol/L, the survival rate was 56.0% in treatment group, which was significantly higher than that in control group (26.8%) (χ2=9.351,P=0.002). At week 4 of the treatment, the HBV DNA reduction in treatment group was 3. 95 lg copy/mL, which was higher than that in control group (1.78 lg copy/mL) (t=5.847, P=0.001). Conclusions Entecavir treatment could improve the survival rate of hepatitis B patients with early or middle stage of acute-on-chronic liver failure. And the further study with larger population is needed in patients with late stage of liver failure. In addition, entecavir therapy could also improve the survival rate of patients with TBil >342 μmol/L.

Objective To investigate the influence of hepatectomy combined with splenectomy on curative effect of primary hepatocellular carcinoma patients associated with hypersplenism.Methods Twenty three cases of primary hepatocellular carcinoma associated with hypersplenism were analyzed retrospectively and divided into hepatectomy combined with splenectomy group (n=10) and hepatectomy combined with ligation of splenic artery (n=13). Peripheral blood samples were collected 1 week before operation and 3 monthes after operation respectively. The levels of CD4, CD8, CD16, CD4/CD8, WBC and PLT in the blood were detected. Survival rate between the two groups was compared. Results There were not significant differences in the expressional levels of CD4, CD8, CD16, CD4/CD8,WBC and PLT before operation, bleeding quantity during the operation and rate of severe complications after operation in the two groups. The expressional levels of CD4, CD16, CD4/CD8, WBC and PLT of hepatectomy combined with splenectomy group were much higher in 3 months after operation than those in 1 week before operation and in hepatectomy combined with ligation of splenic artery group (P

Objective To investigate the clinical feasibility of robotic-assisted laparoscopic radical cystectomy (RARC) by da Vinci surgical system and to summarize the operative technique and outcomes.Methods From December 2007 to March 2012,22 patients (20 males and 2 females) with the bladder urothelial carcinomas were enrolled.Patient age was from 37 -72 years (rnean 62 years) ; the body mass index was 22.5 - 30.1 kg/m2 ( mean 26.1 kg/m2 ) ; and the American Society of Anesthesiologists score was 1 -2. All patients were diagnosed preoperatively with muscle -invasive or high-risk non-muscle-invasive bladder urothelial carcinomas in cystoscopic biopsy.There were no adjacent organ infiltration,pelvic lymph node involvement or dístant metastasis found on preoperative examinations.The clinical stage of all cases was under T2 N0 M0.Patients were under general anesthesia for RARC with urinary diversion.Extracorporeal urinary diversions (orthotopic ileal neobladder for 2 patients and ileal conduit urinary diversion for 13 patients)were performed on 15 patients and intracorporeal urinary diversions ( ileal conduit urinary diversion for 2 patientsand orthotopic ileal neobladder for 5 patients) were performed on 7 patients. Results All RARC procedure were completed on patients as planned.The operative time was 300 - 667 min ( mean 480 min)with estimated blood loss of 100 - 1200 ml (mean 550 ml),and the number of removed lymph nodes was 6 -25 (mean 15). All patients resumed ambulation on the 2nd to 3rd day postoperatively,and bowel function recovered on the 3rd or 4th day postoperatively.The length of hospital stay was 8 - 35 days ( mean 16 days).For patients underwent orthotopic ileal neobladder,the ileoureteral stents and the urethral catheter were removed 1 month after a cystogram confirming watertight healing.During the follow up of 4 -49 months (mean 32 months),2 patients had disease recurrence and 1 patient died of disease development and 2 patients had developed hydronephrosis.The other patients were with good urinary continence and normal renal functions. Conclusions RARC with urinary diversion are feasible and safe treatment option for bladder urothelial carcinoma.This technique will be more popular with more extensive surgical experiences and large randomized clinical trials.

Retroperitoneal laparoscopic live donor nephrectomy offers an intrinsic advantage over conventional transperitoneal laparoscopic nephrectomy because of the potentially lower risk for early and late donor intraperitoneal complications. Herein we presented our experience performing retroperitoneal laparoscopic live donor nephrectomy in 105 donors. All donor nephrectomy was successful. There were no donor deaths and no conversion to open surgery. Mean operation time was 112 min (range, 70-200 min). Intraoperative blood loss was 10-150 mL with an average of 30 mL. Warm ischemia time was 1.3 to 6 min with an average of 3.1 min. Postoperative retroperitoneal hematoma occurred in only one case and there were no other surgical complications. Donors were discharged from the hospital 5 to 10 days postoperation. Average postoperative hospital stay was 6.4 days. One graft was removed due to acute rejection. Delayed graft function occurred in two recipients but renal function returned to normal within four weeks. The other recipients had normal renal function in two weeks except three recipients in four weeks. We believe that retroperitoneal laparoscopic live donor nephrectomy is safe, reliable, and less invasive.
