Objective:To compare the therapeutic effects between immediate breast reconstruction (IBR) after skin-sparing mastecto-my and modified radical mastectomy (MRM) in young breast cancer patients (≤35 years), as well as to analyze the prognostic factors of IBR in these patients. Methods:The clinicopathological data of young breast cancer patients who had undergone IBR after skin-spar-ing mastectomy (60 cases) and MRM (68 cases) in Liuzhou People's Hospital from July 2008 to June 2014 were retrospectively ana-lyzed. Local recurrence, disease-free survival, and overall survival of the patients between the two groups were compared. The influ-encing factors for survival of the IBR group patients, such as age, tumor size, and nipple-areolar complex preservation, were analyzed. Results:All patients were followed-up for a period ranging from 15 to 88 months with a median of 51. In the IBR group, local recur-rence, distant metastasis, and death occurred in 3, 8, and 5 cases, respectively. The 3-and 5-year disease-free survival rates (DFSR) were 91.7%and 81.7%, respectively, whereas the overall survival rate (OSR) was 91.7%. In the MRM group, local recurrence, distant metastasis, and death occurred in 2, 9, and 5 cases, respectively. The 3-and 5-year DFSRs were 94.1%and 83.8%, respectively, where-as the OSR was 92.6%. No statistical difference was noted between the two groups (P>0.05). The analysis of prognostic correlation fac-tors in the IBR group patients shows that lymph node metastasis and estrogen and progesterone receptor-negative correlated with the tumor-free survival and overall survival rates (P<0.05). Conclusion:No apparent statistical difference in the comparison of the local re-currence and long-term survival rate was observed between the two groups' young breast cancer patients who underwent IBR after skin-sparing mastectomy and MRM. IBR after skin-sparing mastectomy is safe for young breast cancer patients with early-stage, and nipple-areolar complex preservation does not increase the risk of recurrence in the IBR group patients. Lymph node metastasis and es-trogen and progesterone receptor-negative are the major prognostic factors of IBR after skin-sparing mastectomy in young breast can-cer patients.

Objective To investigate the surgical method and therapeutic effects of immediate breast reconstruction with extended latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap after nipple-sparing mastectomy.Methods From January 2008 to July 2014,61 patients with breast cancer were given immediate breast reconstruction with extended latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap after nipple-sparing mastectomy.Results All of the 61 patients obtained successful breast reconstruction without flap necrosis and serious complications.Followed-up from 12 to 78 months,all patients were no local recurrence,but distant metastasis was occurred in 4 cases and death in 1 case.The morphology of reconstructed breast was excellent in 93.4 % (57/61) cases.Conclusion Immediate breast reconstruction with extended latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap after nipplesparing mastectomy is safe,easy to master and has few serious complications.The reconstructed breast has a natural and beautiful appearance and improves the quality of life.It does not affect postoperative adjuvant therapy.Most Chinese patients can obtain breast reconstruction without implant.This method is worth to spread.

Objective To investigate the safety and efficacy of nephron-sparing surgery (NSS)for selective T2 stage renal tumor.Methods The surgical database of 26 patients treated with NSS for clinical T2 stage renal cell carcinomas between March 2010 and May 2013 were collected and analyzed retrospectively.There were 17 males and 9 females,with a mean age of 52 years (39-74 years),mean tumor size of 10.3 cm(7.2-16.5 cm),and mean R.E.N.A.L score of 7.5 (6-10).Patients'demographics,clinical characteristics,oncologic outcomes,renal function were reviewed.Results The renal masses were removed successfully and the surgical margins were negative.There were 21 (80.8%) cases of clear cell carcinoma,4 (15.4%) papillary carcinoma and 1 (3.8%) chromophobe carcinoma.The mean ischemia time was (28.3 ± 12.5) minutes (7 patients were clamp-free).Three patients needed transfusion,one experienced urine fistula and cured by conservative treatment,and one patient's renal function got progressive worsening and required long-term hemodialysis.The average serum creatinine was 121 μ mol/L before and 136 μmol/L after surgery (P =0.06).After a period of 22-47 months' follow-up,no patient had local recurrence or metastasis.Conclusions NSS can be safely performed and provide effective oncologic outcomes for selective patients with clinical T2 stage renal cell carcinomas.R.E.N.A.L nephrometry is an important factor and should be used to evaluate the feasibility of NSS.

Objective:To compare toally endoscopic thyroidectomy(TET) with open thyroidectomy(OT) in the treatment of differentiated thyroid cancer.Methods:Data of 190 patients at Liuzhou People's Hospital from Jul 2017 to Dec 2019 were analyzed. Patients were divided into endoscopic surgery group ( n=95) and open surgery group ( n=95). Results:The operation time and the hospital stay in endoscopic group were longer than that in open surgery group[(153±25) min vs. (116±17) min, (5.56±1.08) d vs.(5.08±1.04) d, t=11.827,3.083, both P<0.05)]. There was no significant difference in intraoperative blood loss [(33±14) ml vs. (37±16) ml, t=-1.851 P>0.05], recurrent laryngeal nerve paralysis, hypoparathyroidism and wound complications (4% vs. 9%, 9% vs. 15%,1% vs. 3%, all P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the number of central lymph node dissection between the two groups (6.12±3.54 vs. 6.35±4.75, t=-0.404, P<0.05). The length of scar in endoscopic group was shorter [(3.03±0.27) cm vs. (6.47±0.53) cm, t=-56.138, P<0.05), and the postoperative cosmetic score evaluated by the patients was higher (8.76±0.75 vs. 7.39±0.76, P<0.05), than those in open group. There were no tumor recurrence nor metastasis in neither group by short term follow-up. Conclusions:TET is similar to OT on clinical curative effectiveness for differentiated thyroid carcinoma while carries a better cosmetic result .

Objective:To compare the complications between breast-conserving surgery with free dermal fat graft (FDFG) and traditional breast-conserving surgery (TBCS) in breast cancer patients, and to analyze the influencing factors for the incidence of complications of breast-conserving surgery with FDFG.Methods:The clinical data of 120 breast cancer patients who underwent breast-conserving surgery with FDFG (FDFG group, 50 cases) or TBCS (TBCS group, 70 cases) in Liuzhou People's Hospital from June 2015 to September 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. The incidence of overall complications and various complications between the two groups were compared, the influencing factors of complications in the FDFG group were analyzed, and the cosmetic outcome was evaluated.Results:There was no significant difference between the two groups in age, lymph node status, clinical TNM stage, etc (all P > 0.05). In the FDFG group, the proportions of patients with the longest tumor diameter > 3 cm and tumor in upper inner quadrant were significantly higher than those in the TBCS group [52.0% (26/50) vs. 27.1% (19/70), χ2 = 7.69, P = 0.006; 38.0% (19/50) vs. 15.7% (11/70), χ2 = 7.73, P = 0.005]. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative hospital stay and weight of resected tissues in the FDFG group were higher than those in the TBCS group [(251±69) min vs. (213±41) min, (107±29) ml vs. (68±26) ml, (8.8±2.5) d vs. (6.1±1.6) d, (81±26) g vs. (56±20) g], and the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 10.14, 30.58, 22.20, and 14.54, respectively, all P < 0.001). There were no significant differences in the incidence of overall complications, bleeding, infection, or poor wound healing between the two groups (all P > 0.05). The incidence rate fat liquefaction in the FDFG group was higher than that in the TBCS group [14.0% (7/50) vs. 1.4% (1/70), χ2 = 5.53, P = 0.019]. Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that the weight of FDFG ( OR = 14.056, 95.0% CI 1.764-111.985, P = 0.013) and the thickness of FDFG ( OR = 19.599, 95.0% CI 1.743-220.345, P = 0.016) were independent influencing factors for the incidence of complications in the FDFG group. The percentage of 'excellent' or 'good' cosmetic outcome in the FDFG group was 90% (45/50). Conclusions:Breast-conserving surgery with FDFG can extend the resected area for tumor without increasing the incidence of overall complications and could provide patients a superior cosmetic outcome, but the incidence of fat liquefaction is higher than that of TBCS. The weight and thickness of FDFG are the influencing factors for the incidence of complications of breast-conserving surgery with FDFG.
