Complications such as pancreatic leakage,biliary leakage and abdominal infection may occur after pancreaticoduodenectomy.Previous surgeons have recommended routine preventive drainage for early detection and treatment of complications.In recent years,with the rise of the idea of accelerated rehabilitation,this view has been questioned and disputed.In this paper,five aspects of drainage tube placement after pancreaticoduodenectomy,drainage mode,drainage placement area,when to remove the drainage tube,and re-catheter drainage after surgery are reviewed.

Gallbladder cancer(GBC)is a relatively rare malignant tumor with poor prognosis,which is usually diagnosed in the late stage due to the lack of obvious early symptoms and specific clinical manifestations.Surgery is the only possible cure for gallbladder cancer,but the choice of surgical approach and scope is still controversial.In recent years,the application of targeted therapy and immunotherapy in advanced gallbladder cancer has brought new hope to patients.This article reviews the epidemiologic features,risk factors,pathologic characteristics,and current diagnostic and therapeutic strategies of gallbladder cancer,and discusses several controversial topics,aiming to provide a reference for clinical management.

Objective:To analyze the APR triangle formed when the right hepatic vein (RHV) passed through the right anterior hepatic pedicle (RAHP) and the right posterior hepatic pedicle (RPHP) by 3D visualization technique.Methods:Clinical data of 100 subjects undergoing liver contrast-enhanced CT scan in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University from September 2019 to September 2022 were retrospectively analyzed, including 57 males and 43 females, aged (53.2±13.0) years. The CT data were imported into a system for 3D image reconstruction of the liver. The intrahepatic vascular structure was observed, including the portal vein, APR triangle, the angle between the RAHP and RPHP, the distance between RHV and the vertex of angle when it crosses the angle plane of the RAHP and RPHP, the structure and branches of the right posterior branch of portal vein, and the number of branches into the APR triangle from the main trunk of the right anterior and right posterior portal vein.Results:The main type of portal vein was type A (the main portal vein was divided into left and right branches, and the right branch was further divided into right anterior branch and right posterior branch), in 86 cases (86.0%). The APR triangle was observed in 81 cases (81.0%), and the distance between the right hepatic vein and the vertex of the right anterior and right posterior hepatic pedicle was (1.70±0.36) cm, 1.00-2.00 cm was 82.7%(61/81). The angle between right anterior and right posterior hepatic pedicle was 45°-90° in 77 cases (77.0%, 77/100). In 100 subjects, the main branch of the right posterior portal vein accounted for 42.0% (42/100) of typeⅠ (bifurcation type) and 53.0% (arch type) of type Ⅱ (53/100). In 16 cases (19.8%, 16/81), the main right anterior portal vein branched into the APR triangle, with a total of 22 branches. In 9 cases (11.1%, 9/81), the main branch of the right posterior portal vein (branching type) branched into the triangle, with a total of 11 branches. There were 33 cases (40.7%, 33/81) of right posterior portal vein (arch type) main branch branching into the triangle, a total of 41 branches.Conclusion:The APR triangle, composed of the RAHP, RPHP and RHV, has an objective anatomical basis and is affected by the variants of portal vein and RHV. It is more common for the RHV to be within 1.00-2.00 cm of the vertex of the angle between the RAHP and RPHP, and the main trunk of the right anterior and right posterior branches of portal vein are less divided into the triangle, so it is relatively safe to dissect within this area.
