Objective To investigate the clinical value of emergent perspective stent implantation for leftside obstructive colonic cancer.Methods The clinical data of 26 patients with obstructive colonic cancer who received emergent perspective stent implantation at the Affiliated Xuzhou Hospital of Southeast University from October 2011 to February 2014 were retrospectively analyzed.A soft and a hard guidewire and a catheter were applied in the operation.The guidewires were put through the hole of the intestinal tumor,and then the metal stent and the conveyor were guided by the guidewires and were pulled through the hole of the intestinal tumor,finally the stent was released and the conveyor was adjusted to ensure that the stent was at the right position.Patients were followed-up through outpatient examination till 4 weeks after tumor resection.Results Of the 26 patients,9 were with rectal cancer,10 with sigmoid colonic cancer,6 with descending colonic cancer,1 with splenic flexure cancer.The median length of stenosis was 4.6 cm (range,2.0-8.0 cm).The surgery of the 26 patients was successful.The mean operation time was 35.2 minutes (range,15.2-72.0 minutes),and the mean time of stent implantation was 5.6 minutes (range,2.6-26.9 minutes).Patients had watery or loose stool for 4-8 times after stent implantation.Ten hours after the operation,all the patients were given liquid diet.The remission rate of clinical symptoms was 100.0% (26/26).No colonic perforation was detected during the operation.Two patients were complicated with slight bleeding,and was alleviated by medication.Twenty-six patients received stage Ⅰ tumor resection procedure within 7-10 days after the symptoms of intestinal obstruction were remised.The success rate of surgery was 100.0% (26/26).No infection and other drainage were detected after tumor resection through follow-up.Conclusion Emergent perspective stent implantation for left-side obstructive colonic cancer is safe and effective.

Objective To investigate the application value of fluoroscopy-guided placement of transanal decompression tube as a bridge measure in laparoscopic surgery of sigmoid volvulus.Methods The data of 21 patients with sigmoid volvulus without intestinal necrosis,who were admitted to the Xuzhou Municipal Central Hospital of China from January 2014 to October 2023,were retrospectively analyzed.The patients received fluoroscopy-guided placement of transanal decompression tube first.After the clinical symptoms disappeared,laparoscopic sigmoid resection was carried out.The success rate of interventional operation,time spent for interventional procedure,postoperative 24-hour remission rate of clinical symptoms,incidence of interventional complications,frequency of transferring to emergency surgery,time from tube placement to laparoscopic surgery,intraoperative intestinal conditions,incidence of postoperative anastomotic fistula and anastomotic infection,and perioperative mortality were calculated.Results The success rate of interventional operation in 21 patients was 100%,the mean time spent for interventional procedure was(9.9±2.5)min,and the postoperative 24-hour remission rate of clinical symptoms was 100%.No interventional complications such as intestinal perforation or intestinal bleeding occurred in all the 21 patients.None of the patients was transferred to emergency surgery.The mean time from tube placement to laparoscopic surgery was(9.0±2.8)days.During the operation,the restoration of sigmoid volvulus was accomplished in all patients.No obvious congestion or oedema of the intestinal wall was observed.Postoperative anastomotic infection occurred in one patient,which was cured after symptomatic treatment,and no anastomotic fistula occurred in all patients.No perioperative death occurred.Conclusion For the treatment of sigmoid volvulus,fluoroscopy-guided placement of transanal decompression tube is technically-simple,clinically safe and effective,and the emergency surgery can be replaced by selective laparoscopic sigmoid resection surgery with one-stage intestinal anastomosis.The incidences of postoperative complications and perioperative mortality are very low.
