Objective To find out a new treatment method for advanced pancreatic carcinoma. Methods Twenty-nine patients with advanced pancreatic carcinoma and liver metastases were randomly divided into 2 groups.Group A (n=11) underwent bilio-enterostomy and/or gastro-enterostomy combined with systemic chemotherapy after operation;Group B(n=18) underwent bilio-enterostomy and/or gastro-enterostomy combined with peripancreatic arterial ligation and arterial infusion regional chemotherapy.The alleviation of clinical symptom,the change of carcinoma volume by BUS and CT scan,survival period and serum CEA were observed in two groups. Results The symptoms were alleviated apparently in most cases in Group B;BUS and CT scan showed that the tumor volume decreased apparently in Group B;The response rate was 67.7% in Group B,and 18.2% in Group A,respectively(P＜0.01);the mean survival period was (4.8±0.6) months in Group A,and (12.5±1.2) months in Group B,respectively(P＜0.01),there was significant difference between the two groups.The decrease of serum CEA was 54% in Group A and 60% in Group B,but the difference was not significant(P＞0.05). Conclusion Peripancreatic arterial ligation combined with arterial infusion regional chmotherapy is believed to be effective against both pancreatic carcinoma and liver metastases,and it can alleviate the clinical symptoms,postpone the growth speed of tumor,and prolong the survival period.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of the transverse rectus abdominismuscle (TRAM) on reconstruction of the breast.Methods:The clinical data of 23 patients receiving TRAM breast reconstruction in our department from Jan. 2018 to Dec. 2019 were retrospectively analyzed.Results:The operation time of 23 patients ranged from 240 to 360 mins, andthe average time was about 300 mins. Intraoperative bleeding was about 120 to 200 ml, with an average of 170 ml. All the flaps survived successfully, but 2 cases were complicated with local fat necrosis. The postoperative period was between 6 and 12 months. No local tumor recurrence or metastasis was found inall patients during postoperative follow-up, and the breast shape was maintained in good condition.Conclusion:TRAM can make up for the regret of breast loss caused by breast cancer in female patients. It can bring confidence in life and work to female patients, and the technology is safe and reliable, which is worthy of promotion.
