Objective:To explore the application value of real-time virtual sonography (RVS) combined with intraductal biliary contrast-enhanced ultrasound (IB-CEUS) in percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage (PTCD).Methods:This retrospective cohort study included data from 71 patients who underwent PTCD at the Department of Hepatobiliary and Pancreatic Surgery in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University between May 2021 and August 2022. There were 36 male and 35 female patients,aged 35 to 94 years. Based on the guidance modality used,patients were divided into two groups: the RVS combined with IB-CEUS group ( n=36) and the digital subtraction angiography (DSA) group ( n=35). PTCD was performed under the guidance of RVS combined with IB-CEUS in the RVS+IB-CEUS group,and under conventional DSA fluoroscopic guidance in the DSA group. Two clinicians classified the biliary conditions as either simple or complex based on preoperative ultrasound and CT (or MRI) imaging. Statistical analyses were conducted using independent sample t-tests,rank-sum tests, χ2 tests,or Fisher′s exact tests,as appropriate. Results:Significant differences were observed between the RVS+IB-CEUS group and the DSA group in terms of the number of punctures (1.0±0.2 vs. 2.2±1.4, t=-5.148, P<0.01) and postoperative complication rate(2.8% (1/35) vs. 17.1% (6/36), P=0.049). There were 9 patients with complex biliary conditions in the DSA group and 12 in the RVS+IB-CEUS group. The number of punctures in both the simple and complex subgroups of the RVS+IB-CEUS group(1.0±0.2 and 1.0±0.0) remained lower than that in the corresponding DSA subgroups(2.2±1.6 and 2.4±0.4) ( t=-3.606, P<0.01; t=-3.959, P=0.002). Moreover,the complication rate in the simple biliary subgroup of the RVS+IB-CEUS group was significantly lower than that of the DSA group(0 (0/24) vs. 19.2% (5/26), P=0.031),whereas no significant difference was found in the complex biliary subgroup (1/12 vs. 1/9, P=0.686). Conclusion:Guided by RVS and IB-CEUS, PTCD can help reduce the number of punctures during surgery and postoperative complications, and patients with complex bile duct conditions can still benefit from PTCD.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of middle-preserving pancreatectomy (MPP).Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of two patients who underwent MPP in Fujian Provincial Hospital from July 2019 to October 2019 were collected. Case 1 was a 52-year-old woman with multiple serous cystic neoplasms of the pancreatic head and tail. Case 2 was a 20-year-old man with chronic pancreatitis and multiple pancreatic duct stones. After comprehensive evaluation, two patients were performed laparoscopic pancreatic head tumor resection+ pancreatic tail resection+ splenectomy+ pancreaticojejunostomy and duodenum-preserving pancreatic head resection+ pancreatic tail resection+ lithotomy by longitudinal pancreatic duct incision+ side-to-side pancreaticojejunostomy, respectively. Observation indicators: surgery, operation time, volume of intraoperative blood loss, blood transfusion, postoperative fasting blood glucose, postoperative complications, duration of postoperative hospital stay, postoperative pathological examination, and follow-up. Follow-up was performed using outpatient examination and telephone interview to detect new-onset diabetes mellitus, pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy and disease recurrence up to March 2020.Results:Two patients successfully underwent MPP. The operation time of case 1 and case 2 were 470 minutes and 400 minutes, the volume of intraoperative blood loss were 200 mL and 100 mL, respectively. No blood transfusion was performed in either patient. The postoperative fasting blood glucose fluctuated between 5.4 and 11.8 mmol/L in case 1, and fluctuated between 5.9 and 11.3 mmol/L in case 2. Case 1 developed abdominal infection after operation, and was discharged after anti-infective treatment. Case 2 had good recovery with no complication. No pancreatic fistula or perioperative death occurred in two patients. The duration of postoperative hospital stay were 12 days and 8 days of case 1 and case 2, respectively. The pathological examination of case 1 showed serous cystadenoma of the pancreatic head and pancreatic tail. The pathological examination of case 2 showed that slightly dilated pancreatic ducts of the pancreatic head and tail with multiple stones and chronic inflammatory cells infiltration around the pancreatic ducts. The length of pancreas preserved was 8.5 cm and 8.3 cm of case 1 and case 2 on postoperative computed tomography (CT) reexamination. Two patients were followed up for 5 months and 7 months, respectively. During the follow-up, both patients had no new-onset diabetes and they didn′t require pancreatic enzyme replacement therapy. Both patients underwent upper abdominal CT examination at postoperative 5 months, which showed good blood supply in middle pancreas and no signs of recurrence of cystadenoma or stones.Conclusions:MPP is a safe and feasible procedure for the treatment of multifocal pancreatic lesions. The procedure can eradicate the lesions and ensure good control of blood glucose in patients.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of laparoscopic spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy (Kimura method and Warshaw method) for benign lesions of pancreatic body and tail.Methods The retrospective cohort study was conducted.The clinicopathological data of 39 patients with benign lesions of pancreatic body and tail who underwent laparoscopic spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University between March 2008 and January 2018 were collected.Of 39 patients,28 undergoing Kimura method (splenic artery and vein-preserving distal pancreatectomy) were allocated into the Kimura group,and 11 undergoing Warshaw method (cutting splenic vessels and preserving short gastric vessels)due to serious adhesion between pancreatic body and tail and splenic hilum were allocated into the Warshaw group.Observation indicators:(1) operation situations;(2) postoperative situations;(3) follow-up situations.Followup using outpatient examination and telephone interview was performed to detect blood glucose level and tumor recurrence of patients up to March 2018.Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as (x)±s and comparison between groups was analyzed using the t test.Measurement data with skewed distribution were described as M (range) and comparison between groups was done using nonparametric rank-sum test.Comparisons of count data were analyzed using chi-square test or Fisher exact probability.Results (1) Operation situations:39 patients received laparoscopic spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy,operation time and volume of intraoperative blood loss of 39 patients were respectively (194 ±58)minutes and 100 mL (range,30-800 mL).The operation time and volume of intraoperative blood loss were respectively (197±56)minutes,100 mL (range,30-800 mL) in the Kimura group and (186±63)minutes,150 mL (range,30-450 mL) in the Warshaw group,with no statistically significant difference between groups (t =0.494,Z =-0.597,P＞ 0.05).(2) Postoperative situations:time to anal exsufflation and duration of hospital stay were respectively (2.6±0.8)days,(9.2±7.3)days in 39 patients and (2.4±0.6)days,(7.5±4.2)days in the Kimura group and (2.8±1.3)days,(13.5±11.1)days in the Warshaw group,with no statistically significant difference between groups (t=-0.720,-1.736,P＞0.05).Seven patients had postoperative complications.The incidence of complication was 2/28 in the Kimura group,1 patient with pancreatic leakage at 5 days postoperatively was cured by 15-day B ultrasound guided catheter drainage,and 1 who was diagnosed as pulmonary infection by chest CT examination at 5 days postoperatively was discharged from hospital after 8-day anti-infection and sputum-inductive treatments.The incidence of complication was 5/11 in the Warshaw group,3 patients with sustained fever at 5 and 7 days postoperatively who were diagnosed as grade 1 splenic infarction by epigastric enhanced CT examination were improved and discharged from hospital by antibiotic and low molecular weight heparin treatments,and then epigastric enhanced CT re-examination at 3 months postoperatively showed recovery of splenic perfusion;1 with pancreatic leakage at 7 days postoperatively was cured by 18-day conservative treatment;1 who was diagnosed as delayed gastric emptying by upper gastrointestinal contrast at 16 days postoperatively was improved and then discharged from hospital by 15-day placement of intestinal feeding tube and nutrition support therapy.There were statistically significant differences in the incidences of overall complication and splenic infarction between groups (x2 =5.485,4.878,P＜0.05) and no statistically significant difference in the incidence of other complications between groups (P＞0.05).(3) Follow-up situations:39 patients were followed up for 12 months (range,2-64 months).During the follow-up,six patients had normal blood glucose level,and all patients had good quality of life,without recurrence.Conclusions Laparoscopic spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy for the benign lesions of pancreatic body and tail is satisfactory in short-and long-term curative effects.The incidences of complication and splenic infarction of Kimura method are lower than that of Warshaw method.
