Objective:To compare the benefits and prognostic risks of unilateral lobectomy (with or without isthmusectomy) or total (or near-total) thyroidectomy for primary foci of unilateral papillary thyroid cancer (PTC) patients with ipsilateral lateral cervical lymph node metastasis (LLNM) , so as to find out the optimal surgery for these patients.Methods:A total of 505 unilateral PTC patients with ipsilateral LLNM who underwent initial surgical treatment at the Thyroid Surgery Department of Zhejiang Cancer Hospital from Feb. 2012 to Jan. 2020 were retrospectively reviewed. The patients were divided into unilateral lobectomy group ( n=314) and total thyroidectomy group ( n=191) according to the extent of resection of primary foci. Then 177 pairs of cases were screened out after eliminating the potential confounding bias between the two groups by using propensity score matching (PSM) , analyzing the differences in clinical outcomes such as recurrence-free survival (RFS) , overall survival (OS) , hospitalization costs, and postoperative complications between the two groups. Results:After PSM, the postoperative complication rate was 37.3% ( n=66) in the total thyroidectomy group and 3.4% ( n=6) in the unilateral lobectomy group. The complication was mainly characterized by temporary hypoparathyroidism (HP) . Although the difference in length of hospitalization between the two groups was not statistically significant ( P=0.792) , patients in the unilateral lobectomy group used less surgical time ( P<0.001) , had lower hospitalization and surgical costs ( P<0.0001) , and took a relatively smaller dose of levothyroxine (L-T4) one month after the operation ( P<0.0001) , as compared with the total thyroidectomy group. Univariate analysis showed that the number of LLNM total lymph node metastasis (LNM) rate, LLNM rate, and T stage were significant risk factors for relapse. Multi-factor regression analysis indicated that T-staging was a risk factor for recurrence. After a median follow-up of 60 (3-138) months, 19 patients (10.7%) in the unilateral lobectomy group and 11 patients (6.2%) in the total thyroidectomy group recurred, with no statistical difference between the two groups ( P=0.133) . The OS curve displayed no significant difference between the unilateral lobectomy and total thyroidectomy groups ( P=0.740) . Conclusion:For unilateral PTC patients with ipsilateral LLNM without other high-risk features, unilateral lobectomy could be a better option.

With the extended survival period of breast cancer patients and the increasing health demands, the concomitant diseases of breast cancer have gradually attracted the attention of both doctors and patients, and it is imperative to conduct comprehensive management of these diseases, in which the general practitioners, as the more comprehensive and complex medical talents, have not yet played their due roles. In this article, we report two cases of comprehensive management of concomitant diseases of breast cancer through collaboration of general practitioners and specialists (integrated general and specialist care). The role and function of general practitioners in this process were deeply analyzed, and the establishment of a consultation-liaison general practice model to further promote the role of integrated general and specialist care in integrated oncology care was advocated.

Background:Esophageal non-variceal hemorrhage is relatively uncommon in clinical,however,it can be life-threatening in severe cases. Thus,retrospective analysis of esophageal non-variceal hemorrhage could provide important evidence for its diagnosis and treatment. Aims:To analyze the clinical characteristics of esophageal non-variceal hemorrhage. Methods:A total of 175 cases of esophageal non-variceal hemorrhage from January 2006 to December 2016 at Daping Hospital were enrolled. Gender,age,cause of bleeding,location of bleeding,season of onset,treatment and prognosis were retrospectively analyzed. Results:The ratio of male to female was 3. 5: 1 in 175 patients with esophageal non-variceal hemorrhage,73. 1％ of patients were middle-aged and elderly. The main cause of bleeding of esophageal non-variceal hemorrhage were cardiac mucosal laceration syndrome (46. 9％),esophageal cancer (23. 4％),esophageal ulcer (12. 6％)and esophageal foreign body (12. 0％). The most common site of bleeding was lower esophagus (70. 9％). Fifty-one patients accepted endoscopic treatment or surgery. After treatment,142 patients (81. 1％)were cured or improved,and death was occurred in 27 patients (15. 4％). Conclusions:The incidence of esophageal non-variceal hemorrhage is higher in male than in female,and is commonly seen in middle-aged and elderly patients. The most common cause of bleeding of esophageal non-variceal hemorrhage is cardiac mucosal laceration syndrome,and the most common site of bleeding is lower esophagus. Medicine combined with endoscopic treatment is effective for most of the patients.

Objective To explore the clinical characters,treatment and prognosis of gastrointestinal Dieulafoy lesion in China.Methods Dieulafoy was used as search term,the literatures about Chinese patients with Dieulafoy lesions from January 1998 to October 2016 were retrieved in the Chinese literature library including China National Knowledge Infrastructure,VIP network,Wanfang database and China Biology Medicine disc,and a total of 515 literatures,5 145 patients were enrolled and analyzed.The gender,age,geographical distribution,location of the lesion,treatment and prognosis of the disease were summarized.Results Among the 5 145 patients (male 3 959,female 1 186) with Dieulafoy disease,the ratio of male to female was 3.34∶1.00.The age was from 3 to 95 years,and mean age was 51 years.The lesion location was mainly in stomach (88.82％,4 570/5 145) and second was small intestine (8.28％,426/5 145).In stomach,the lesions were mainly located in gastric corpus,fundus and cardia.The small intestinal Dieulafoy lesions were mainly located in duodenum.The main manifests were sudden hematemesis,melena,and hematochezia.The treatments mainly was endoscopic treatment (72.56％,3 733/5 145),and second was surgery (25.27％,1 300/5 145).Among the5 145 patients withDieulafoy disease,5 099 patients (99.11％) were cured and 46 patients (0.89％) died.The proportions of endoscopic treatment,interventional therapy and first endoscopic treatment within 24 hours in tertiary hospitals were all higher than those of nontertiary (all P＜0.01).The cure rate of tertiary hospitals (99.22％,3 674/3 793) was significantly higher than that of nontertiary hosptials (98.54％,1 421/1 442) (x2 =0.89,P＜0.05) and the mortality was significantly lower than that of nontertiary hospitals (P＜ 0.05).Conclusions The male is more susceptible to Dieulafoy lesion which occurred at any age than the female in China.The predilection sites of Dieulafoy lesion were stomach and duodenum.The primary treatments were endoscopic treatment and surgery,and the disease usually had a good prognosis.

Objective Retrospectively analyzed the data of patients with delayed bleeding after colorectal polypectomy,summarized the risk factors and treatment methods of bleeding patients,and provided the basis for further prevention and treatment of postoperative delayed bleeding.Methods Collected the clinical data of 1 243 patients who were admitted into the department of gastroenterology of third affiliated hospital of the third military medical university and accepted polypectomy with colonoscopy from January 2014 to December 2016.Divided these patients into the bleeding group and the non-bleeding group according to whether there was delayed bleeding after surgery.The age,size of polypus,location of polypus,postoperative pathology of the two groups were compared and the postoperative treatment of bleeding was evaluated.Results Among the 1 243 patients underwent colorectal polypectomy,there were 14 cases of delayed bleeding,and the incidence was 1.13%.In the bleeding group,there was 1 case of secondary delayed bleeding and 2 cases of bloody stool after hemostasis for the delayed bleeding.Delayed bleeding occurred at (4.73±2.49)days after surgery.The predilection site of of polypus was rectum in the bleeding group (7/14,50%), and the diameter of polypus was (16.65±4.91)mm in the bleeding group,which was lager than (8.07±4.23)mm in the non-bleeding group with statistical difference (P<0.05).The proportion of hypertensive and diabetic patients in the bleeding group was significantly higher than that in the non-bleeding group (P<0.05).Juvenile polyps and tubular adenoma with high grade intraepithelial neoplasia were more common in the bleeding group(P<0.05).The bleeding group achieved good hemostatic effect by purse suture,hemostatic clip,electrocautery or injection hemostasis.Conclusion Older age,hypertension and diabetes,lager size of polypus,rectum polypus,juvenile polyps and tubular adenoma with high grade intraepithelial neoplasia were risk factor for delayed bleeding.In the event of delayed bleeding,different choice of purse suture,hemostatic clip,electrocautery or injection hemostasis according to different wounds can achieve the desired effect.
