Objective: To investigate the effects of treatment of hernia sac stump in laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal inguinal hernia repair (TAPP) on postoperative seroma. Methods: The prospective study was conducted. The clinical data of 128 male patients with primary indirect inguinal hernia who were admitted to Fujian Medical University Union Hospital from October 2017 to March 2019 were selected. Patients were divided into two groups by random number method. Patients in experimental group had hernia sac stump sutured and fixed at the lower margin of rectus abdominis after transection of hernia sac in TAPP, and patients in control group had hernia sac stump free in the abdominal cavity after dissection and transection of hernia sac in TAPP. Observation indicators: (1) surgical situations; (2) follow-up. Follow-up using outpatient examination and telephone interview was conducted to detect the incidence of postoperative seroma, incision infection, chronic pain, and hernia recurrence up to June 2019. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean±SD, and comparison between groups was done using the t test. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M (range), and comparison between groups was done using the Mann-Whitney U test. Count data were described as absolute numbers and percentages, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the chi-square test. Results: A total of 128 male patients were screened for eligibility, including 60 patients in the experimental group and 68 patients in the control group. The 128 patients were aged from 47 to 74 years, with an average age of 61 years. (1) Surgical situations: operation time and hospital expenses were (102±34)minutes and (12 813±2 390)yuan for the experimental group, and (97±30)minutes and (12 125±2 205)yuan for the control group, respectively, showing no significant difference between the two groups (t=0.907, 1.685, P>0.05). (2) Follow-up: all the 128 patients received follow-up. There were 8 cases of seroma in both the experimental group and the control group, with no significant difference between the two groups (χ²=0.072, P>0.05). The extraction volume of patients with seroma was 20 mL (range, 4-31 mL) in the experimental group, and 43 mL (range, 23-98 mL) in the control group, showing a significant difference between the two groups (Z=-2.013, P<0.05). There was no incision infection, chronic pain or hernia recurrence in 3 months after operation in patients with seroma of either experimental group or control group. Conclusions During TAPP, suture and fixation of the hernia sac stump to the lower edge of rectus abdominis and free hernia sac stump in the abdominal cavity after dissection and transection of hernia sac can effectively repair indirect inguinal hernia. The former method can reduce the extraction volume of seroma after operation.

Objective To explore the clinical effects of laparoscopic combined with open mesh repair for abdominal wall incisional hernia.Methods The retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted.The clinical data of 41 patients with abdominal incisional hernia who were admitted to the Fujian Medical University Union Hospital between September 2011 and June 2017 were collected.All the patients underwent laparoscopic combined with open mesh repair,with the sequence from laparoscopic surgery to open surgery and then to laparoscopic surgery.Observation indicators:(1) intra-and post-operative situations;(2) follow-up situation.Follow-up using outpatient examination and telephone interview was performed to detect postoperative long-term complications and hernia recurrence up to November 2017.Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as (x)±s.Results (1) Intra-and post-operative situations:forty-one patients underwent successful laparoscopic combined with open mesh repair for abdominal wall incisional hernia.Diameter of hernia ring and defect area of abdominal wall were respectively (10±3)cm and (75±34)cm2.Among 41 patients,25 underwent laparoscopic combined with open mesh repair due to tight intestinal adhesion induced difficult laparoscopic separation;16 underwent laparoscopic combined with open mesh repair due to the larger diameter of the hernia ring induced difficulty of closing hernia ring under laparoscope.Operation time,cases with indwelling drainage-tube,time of drainage-tube removal and duration of postoperative hospital stay were respectively (188±71)minutes,33,(14±3)days and (4.5±2.6)days.Of 41 patients,2 with postoperative incomplete intestinal obstruction were cured by symptomatic treatment;2 with incisional infection were cured by antibiotic therapy,irrigation and dressing change.(2) Follow-up situation:41 patients were followed up for (29±17)months.The postoperative chronic pain of 2 patients was occasional and cannot affect the normal life.There was no occurrence of seroma,mesh infection,intestinal fistula,abdominal compartment syndrome and hernia recurrence during the follow-up.Conclusion The laparoscopic combined with open mesh repair has a better clinical effect for patients of incisional hernia with large hernia ring and tight intestinal adhesion,and surgical methods should be chosen seriously according to the condition of the patients in clinical application.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of laparoscopic resection for retroperitoneal tumor via transabdominal approach.Methods The retrospective cross-sectional study was conducted.The clinicopathological data of 37 patients with retroperitoneal tumor who underwent laparoscopic resection via transabdominal approach at Fujian Medical University Union Hospital between January 2011 and August 2017 were collected.The surgical approach of resection for retroperitoneal tumor at the left hypochondriac region,left iliac region,right hypochondriac region and right iliac region referred to laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy,laparoscopic left hemicolectomy,laparoscopic pancreatoduodenectomy and laparoscopic right hemicolectomy respectively.Observation indicators:(1) intra-and post-operative recovery situations;(2) follow-up and survival situations.Follow-up using outpatient examination and telephone interview was performed to detect postoperative tumor recurrence,metastasis and survival of patients up to November 2017.Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as (x)±s.Measurement data with skewed distribution were described as M (range).Results (1) Intra-and post-operative recovery situations:37 patients underwent successfully laparoscopic resection for retroperitoneal tumor via transabdominal approach.Among 37 patients,4 were converted to open surgery,4 were completed surgery with assisted small incision,4 were combined with adjacent organ resection and other 25 underwent totally laparoscopic resection for retroperitoneal tumor.The operation time,volume of intraoperative blood loss,postoperative gastrointestinal recovery time,postoperative drainage-tube removal time and duration of postoperative hospital stay were respectively (181±73) minutes,(160±87) mL,(3.0± 1.0) days,(3.0±2.0) days and (7± 4)days.Of 37 patients,3 with postoperative complications including 2 of chylous fistula and 1 of delayed gastric emptying were improved by symptomatic treatment.There was no perioperative death.(2) Follow-up and survival situations:37 patients were followed up for 3-82 months,with a median time of 30 months.During the follow-up,1 patient with inflammatory myofibroblastic tumor had recurrence at 15 months postoperatively and underwent surgical resection,however,the patient had liver metastasis at 9 months after the second operation and underwent interventional therapy repeatly.One patient with Castleman and 5 with lymphoma underwent regular chemotherapy and achieved disease-free survival.The other patients had disease-free survival.Conclusion Laparoscopic resection for retroperitoneal tumor via transabdominal approach is safe and feasible.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of total pancreaticoduodenectomy for the pancreatic head adenocarcinoma with positive neck margin.Methods The clinical data of 15 patients with pancreatic head adenocarcinoma and had positive neck margin who received total pancreaticoduodenectomy at the Union Hospital of Fujian Medical University from August 2009 to May 2014 were retrospectively analyzed.Patients were followed up by out-patient examination or telephone interview till August 2014.Results Total pancreaticoduodenectomy was successfully carried out on the 15 patients.The operation time was 4.0-10.0 hours (mean,6.5 hours),and the volume of blood loss was 300-2 000 mL (mean,800 mL).The duration of postoperative hospital stay was 13.0-35.0 days (mean,22.3 days).The main postoperative complications included pulmonary infection (3 cases),abdominal infection (2 cases)and low blood glucose (2 cases).No interoperative death,bile leakage or gastrointestinal anastomotic fistula occurred.The blood glucose of most of the patients was controlled by insulin or pancreatin.No stomachache,steatorrhea or malnutrition occurred in all the patients.The mean time of postoperative follow-up was 21 months (range,3 months to 5 years).Three patients survived within 1 year,2 survived for 1-2 years,5 survived for more than 2 years and 1 survived for more than 5 years.Four patients with follow-up time under 6 months survived till now.Five patients had liver metastasis at postoperative month 6.Conclusion Total pancreaticoduodenectomy might be necessary for the pancreatic head adenocarcinoma with positive neck margin to achieve R0 resection.

Objective To investigate the correlation between disease severity and pleural effu sion in patients with acute pancreatitis(AP).Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on a prospectively collected database.The demographic,clinical,and laboratory data of 246 consecutive cases of AP in patients admitted to the Affiliated Union Hospital of Fujian Medical University between January 2008 to December 2012 were reviewed.Acute physiology and chronic health evaluation Ⅱ (APACHE Ⅱ) score and computed tomography severity index (CTSI) were used to evaluate the disease severity of AP.The relationship between the severity and pleural effusion was analyzed.Receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curve was used to compare the values of APACHE Ⅱ score and CTSI in predicting the prognosis of patients with pleural effusion.Results Among the 246 patients,there were 184 patients with pleural effusion and 62 patients without pleural effusion.The incidence of pleu ral effusion in AP was 74.8％.Further study showed that the difference in the incidences of pleural effusion between the severe group and the mild group was significant (P＜0.01).There was a trend that the more serious the patient's condition,the more the pleural effusion.Moreover,the levels of pleural effusion were significantly and positively correlated with the APACHE Ⅱ score (r=0.775,P＜0.01) and CTSI (r=0.525,P＜0.05).Logistic regression analysis showed that the factors significantly associated with pleural effusion formation were a high APACHE Ⅱ score and a high CTSI.Areas under the ROC curve of the APACHE Ⅱ score,CTSI and combined assessment were 0.798,0.687 and 0.812 for predicting mortality of the patients with pleural effusion.Through comparison of the areas under the ROC curve,there was a significant difference between the APACHE Ⅱ score and CTSI as well as combined assessment and CTSI (P＜0.05).Conclusions The disease severity was closely related to pleural effusion in patients with AP.Combining the two scoring systems to evaluate the disease severity and providing active treatment were important to improve the prognosis of patients with pleural effusion.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical application of Kugel hernioplasty via anterior approach for inguinal hernia repair.MethodsA retrospective study was made to analyze the clinical data of 851 cases(956 hernias) treated with Kugel hernioplasty via anterior approach for inguinal hernias from November 2005 to May 2011.ResultsOperative duration was(42 ± 11) minutes.The postoperative complications were detected on 21 hernias of seroma,8 hernias of hematoma,12 hernias of sub dermal ecchymosis,26 hernias of foreign body sensation and 5 hernias of recurrence.No incision infection occurred.Conclusions Kugel hernioplasty via anterior approach can repair and strengthen the whole anatomy area of myopectineal orifice.It is available for various kinds of inguinal hernias.

Objective To investigate the effects of rosmarinic acid on the kidney function,urinary protein,serum MDA and SOD in rats with the 5/6 nephrectomy.Methods We established the rat model with chronic renal dysfunction and randomized them into normal control group,model control group and rosmarinic acid treatment group.There were 6 rats in each group.The blood creatinine level was recorded 2 weeks after operation.We detected the effects of rosmarinic acid on urinary protein,urine creatinine,blood creatinine,serum MDA and SOD in rats with the 5/6 nephretomy which was established by Ponseau S method.The treatment group received rosmarinic acid as an intervention.Results ( 1 ) Compared with control group,the creatinine and The creatinine clearance rate ( Ccr ) of rosmarinic acid treatment group increased ( F =38.912,P ＜ 0.01 ;F =19.968,P ＜ 0.05 ) after treatment,; (2) Rosmarinic acid improved the 24 h urine protein in rats with renal dysfunction significantly(F =16.288 P ＜0.01); (3) Rosmarinic acid had no effect on serum MDA and SOD in rats.Conclusion Rosmarinic acid can decrease urine protein and blood creatinine,increase the Ccr and alleviate kidney failure,but has no effects on MDA and SOD in rat model.

Objective To improve the management of blunt pancreatic trauma, and to explore the strategy of preserving the pancreatic endocrine and exocrine function to the full extent. Methods 20 cases of blunt pancreatic trauma were reviewed and analyzed retrospectively. The methods of operative treatment were analysed. Results All patients were cured. Depending on the general condition, abnomial signs and main pancreatic duct(MPD) injuries at the time of admission, patients received immediate operation or nonoperative treatment. Because of severe peritonitis and demonstrated MPD injury, 10 patients underwent immediate operations, including simple drainage in 6 cases, distal pancreatectomy in 1 patient, external drainage of the injured pancreatic duct for the second operation in 3 cases. Without the demonstrated MPD injury or clinical deterioration, 10 patients received nonoperative treatment under strict observation initially. 3 patients completed the nonoperative course and 7 patients underwent delayed operations, including Roux-en-Y pancreatic cyst-jejunostomy in 3 cases, external drainage of pseudocyst in e cases, pancreaticoduodenectomy in 1 patient because of the expanded hematoma in pancreatic head. Conclusions Blunt pancreatic trauma could receive individual pancreas-preserving treatment, which could improve the operational safety, avoid the resection of pancreas and preserve the pancreatic endocrine and exocrine function to the full extent.

Objective To investigate dynamic changes and clinical significance of the high-sensitive Creactive protein(hs-CRP) level in acute cerebral infarction patients with different etiological types.Methods 136 patients with acute cerebral infarction were recruited.These patients were classified into five subtypes based on Trial of Org 10172 in Acute Stroke Treatment(TOAST) criteria.Serum hs-CRP levels on the 1st,3rd,5th,7th,14th day after onset from patients and 42 healthy controls were measured with immunoturbidimetry.The neurologic impairmentscore was determined with NIHSS.Results Serum hs-CRP levels is higher on the 1th,3rd,5th,7th,14th day than that of the control group ( (4.26 ± 1.31 ),( 12.57 ± 6.29 ),( 10.23 ± 4.49 ),(7.54 ± 2.33 ),(4.25 ± 1.77) mg/Land (2.56 ± 0.86) mg/L,t = 7.89,10.26,10.99,13.55,5.97,P ＜ 0.05 ).Among 5 subtypes,serum hs-CRP was the highest in large-artery atherosclerosis group after acute ischemic stroke,and cardioembolism group was the next.Serum hs-CRP reached the highest on three or five days after disease onset and decreased slowly.High levels of hs-CRP in large-artery atherosclerosis group indicated severe neurologic functional impairment and worsen prognosis.Conclusions ACI is closely related to serum hs-CRP level,which can be used as an subjective index for severity and prognosis with the lasting,high levels of hs-CRP levels predict poor prognosis.

Objective To evaluate clinical application of Kngel patch in treating recurrent inguinal her-nia. Methods The clinical data of 65 patients with 77 sides recurrent inguinal hernia performed open preperitoneal inguinal hernia repairs from January 2005 to June 2009 were analyzed retrospectively. Kugel hernia patches were used in the operations. Results The operating time for unilateral hernia expended 40 ～ 150(76.5±20. 4) min. Postoperative pain was minimal and no incision infection appeared. The postopera-tive complications were 4 cases of uroschesis,6 cases of inguinoscrotal seroma, 2 cases of inguinoscrotal he-matoma and 3 cases of serotal hydrops. No serious complications such as sensation of foreign body, inguinal chronic pain and recurrence were observed during the follow-up of 3 to 54 months. Conclusions Open preperitoneal hernia repair with Kngel patch for adult recurrent inguinal hernia reparation is rational and fea-sible.
