This article reports a diagnostically and therapeutically challenging case of small intestinal marginal zone lymphoma. The patient presented with recurrent abdominal pain as the chief complaint, and imaging revealed multifocal small bowel wall thickening with high uptake, multisegmental luminal stenosis, and proximal dilation. Initial diagnostic workup, including gastroscopy, colonoscopy, and enteroscopy with biopsy, failed to establish a definitive diagnosis. Empirical anti-tuberculosis therapy was ineffective. A repeat enteroscopic biopsy performed over eight months after symptom onset eventually confirmed the diagnosis of mucosa-associated lymphoid tissue (MALT) extranodal marginal zone lymphoma. Despite three different chemotherapy regimens, the patient's intestinal obstruction symptoms persisted, with imaging still showing multifocal bowel wall thickening and hypermetabolic activity. A critical diagnostic dilemma arose regarding whether the PET/CT-positive lesions represented residual lymphoma or fibrotic scarring, whether further chemotherapy adjustments were warranted, and whether surgical resection was necessary. Multidisciplinary discussion concluded that imaging had limited discriminatory value in this scenario and that surgical intervention should be pursued if feasible. The patient successfully underwent partial small bowel resection, with postoperative pathology confirming no residual lymphoma but significant fibrotic changes. The patient has since resumed a normal diet, with body weight nearly restored to pre-illness levels. This case highlights that fibrotic transformation is a common sequela of treated marginal zone lymphoma and that PET/CT may misleadingly suggest residual disease, potentially leading to unnecessary chemotherapy. Timely surgical intervention is crucial in such scenarios.

Objective:To evaluate the efficacy of a modified continuous penetrating-suture pancreaticojejunostomy (PPJ), also known as a continuous PPJ with a U-shaped reinforcement of pancreatic section (U-PPJ), in patients with high risk of clinically relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF).Methods:Clinical data of 33 patients with pancreatic tumors undergoing pancreatic surgery in the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Wannan Medical College from August 2017 to December 2023 were collected, including 22 males and 11 females, aged (64.9±8.6) years old. According to the fashion of pancreaticojejunostomy, patients were divided into two groups: U-PPJ group ( n=11) and PPJ group ( n=22). The general data, incidence of CR-POPF, abdominal bleeding and other clinicopathological data were collected. Results:All patients underwent pancreatic surgery successfully and were discharged from the hospital uneventfully. Intraoperative blood loss in U-PPJ group was 200.00 (100.0, 200.0) ml, postoperative hospitalization was 13.0 (11.0, 18.0) d, and the drain removal time was 17.0 (12.0, 21.0) d, and no CR-POPF occurred. The intraoperative blood loss, postoperative hospitalization days, drain removal time, and incidence of postoperative biochemical leakage were comparable between the groups (all P>0.05). The incidence of CR-POPF in U-PPJ group was lower than that in PPJ group [0 vs. 22.7% (5/22), P<0.05]. Conclusion:U-PPJ is safe and effective in patients with pancreatic tumors and might reduce the incidence of CR-POPF.

With the increasing number of cancer patients in China, the lack of hospice communication between medical staff and cancer patients can easily cause doctor-patient conflicts. Facing the special group of cancer patients, by introducing the concept of hospice communication and comparing the current situation of hospice communication of cancer patients at home and abroad, this paper found the shortcomings of hospice communication between medical staff and cancer patients in China. This paper aimed to analyze the influencing factors of cancer patients’ hospice communication from three aspects of medical staff, cancer patients and social and cultural background, summarized the assessment tools and matters needing attention related to hospice communication, so as to provide reference for domestic medical staff to develop relevant tools for hospice communication with cancer patients, and help medical staff to implement more effective hospice communication with cancer patients in the context of tranquil care. It is also conducive to help patients open the topic of death from the perspective of doctors and build an open hospice communication environment that is more in line with national conditions of China.

Objective:To analyze the risk factors of clinically-relevant postoperative pancreatic fistula (CR-POPF) after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD) and penetrating pancreaticojejunostomy (PPJ).Methods:The clinical data of 108 patients who underwent PD and PPJ in the Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery of the First Affiliated Hospital of Wannan Medical College from January 2017 to October 2022 were analyzed retrospectively, including 65 males and 43 females, aged 65.5 (54.2, 72.0) years. The incidences of POPF, biliary fistula, abdominal bleeding and other related complications were reviewed. The related factors of CR-POPF were analyzed by univariate analysis, and the statistically significant factors were included in multivariate logistic regression analysis.Results:A total of 108 patients were successfully treated with PD, including laparoscopic PD in 76 cases (70.4%) and open PD in 32 cases (29.6%). PPJ was performed in PD, including the continuous fashion in 39 cases (36.1%), intermittent fashion in 49 cases (45.4%) and modified continuous fashion in 20 cases (18.5%). The operation time was 390.0 (314.0, 480.0) min, the intraoperative blood loss was 200.0 (100.0, 384.0) ml, the postoperative hospital stay was 12.0 (10.0, 15.0) d, and the incidence of POPF (grade B + C) was 11.1% (12/108). Body mass index, pancreatic CT value and pancreatic duct size were the significant factors of CR-POPF (all P<0.05). Multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that age ( OR=0.895, 95% CI: 0.822-0.975), pancreatic CT value ( OR=0.812, 95% CI: 0.698-0.946) and pancreatic duct size ( OR=0.457, 95% CI: 0.220-0.952) were risk factors of CR-POPF after PPJ (all P<0.05). Conclusion:PPJ is a safe method of pancreaticoenterostomy, and CR-POPF may be related to younger patients, lower pancreatic CT value and the smaller pancreatic duct size.
