Objective To study the value of laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) for treating gallbladder benign diseases in aged patients. Methods Laparoscopy cholecystectomy (3-port or 4-port) was performed in 2335 senile patients with gallbladder benign diseases from December 1992 to May 2005. Results Five patients were found as having the Mirizzi syndrome and were given a subtotal cholecystectomy. In 18 patients with a frozen Callot’s triangle, the anterior wall of the gallbladder was resected and the mucous membrane on the posterior wall was electrocauterized. LC was completed smoothly in the remaining 2312 patients. No conversions to open surgery were needed. The operation time was 8~55 min (mean, 19 min), and the intraoperative blood loss was 1~ 50 ml (mean, 8 ml). An abdominal drainage tube was placed in 213 patients, including double-cannula lavage in 56 patients. The length of hospital stay was 4~16 d (mean, 6 d). Follow-up examinations for 10 days ~13 years in 1859 patients showed no biliary stenosis, gallbladder pouch, or residual stones. Conclusions Laparoscopic cholecystectomy is safe and feasible in aged patients, being the first choice of operative method. Proper perioperative management, careful prevention co-morbidities, and control of operation time as short as possible are important for senile patients.

Objective To examine the expressions of glyoxalase Ⅰ (GLO-Ⅰ ) in endometrial cancer tissues and cell lines and to investigate the roles of GLO-Ⅰ on proliferation and apoptosis in endometrial cancer cells. Methods Immunohistochemistry, western blot and RT-PCR were used to investigate the expressions of GLO-Ⅰ protein and mRNA in endometrial cancer tissues and Ishikawa cell lines ;enzyme activity of GLO-Ⅰ in normal endometrium, endometrial cancer and paraneoplastic tissue samples was detected with spectrophotometer; proliferation and apoptosis of Ishikawa cell before and after RNA interference (RNAi) procedure were detected by the methyl thiazolyl tetrazolium (MTT) and flow cytometry, respectively. Results (1)There were significant differences of GLO-Ⅰ expression between normal endometrium (0/19) and endometrial cancer tissues ( 76%, 22/29 ); these were also significant differences of enzyme activity of GLO-Ⅰ among normal endometrium, paraneoplastic and endometrial cancer tissues( 1.1,0.8 vs 92.3 IU/mg; P <0.01 ). Enzyme activity of GLO-Ⅰ in fresh normal endometrium and paraneoplastic tissues was weak, while that of fresh endometrial cancer tissues was as high as 92. 3 IU/mg in average. (2)The expression of GLO-Ⅰ mRNA in Ishikawa cell transfected with GLO-Ⅰ siRNA was significantly lower than that in negative group (0.25 ± 0.06 vs 0.93 ± 0.10, P < 0.0l ), and the similar results that in the expression of GLO-Ⅰ protein (0.38 ±0.06 vs 0.94 ±0.13, P <0.01 ). (3) Proliferation in Ishikawa cell was significantly inhibited after silencing RNA expression of GLO-Ⅰ ( P = 0.028 ). The apoptosis rate of cells transfected with GLO- Ⅰ siRNA was significantly higher than that of negative control group and blank control group [ ( 6.7 ± 0.8 ) % vs ( 1.2 ± 0.4) %, ( 1.4 ± 0.4 ) %; P < 0.01 ]. Conclusion The expression and enzyme activity of GLO- Ⅰ is significantly increased in endometrial cancer, which could promote abnormal proliferation and inhibit apoptosis in endometrial cancer cells.
