Objective:To evaluate the impact of resection margin status within a cut-off 1 mm clearance of cancer on the groove of portal/superior mesenteric vein and/or the top end of the uncinate process bordering on the superior mesenteric artery in pancreatic head adenocarcinoma patients after pancreatoduodenectomy.Methods:The clinical, pathological and followup data of 113 pancreatic head adenocarcinoma patients undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy with or without vascular graft replacement were retrospectively analyzed.Results:Univariate analysis showed that resection margin 1mm clearance, postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy, T staging, N staging, TNM staging (AJCC), gender, and maximum tumor diameter were risk factors for survival . Multivariate analysis showed that surgical margin 1mm clearance, postoperative adjuvant chemotherapy, and gender were independent prognostic factors. In resection margin >1 mm group(83 cases), the mean survival time was 19.04 months, and the 1-year, 2-year, and 3-year survival rates were 78%, 50%, and 25%, respectively. In resection margin ≤1 mm group(30 cases), the mean survival time was 9.42 months, and the 1-year, 2-year and 3-year survival rates were 61%, 20% and 0, respectively. There was statistical significance between the two groups in survival time ( P=0.018). Conclusion:Resection margins 1 mm clearance of cancer off portal vein/superior mesenteric vein and superior mesenteric artery is independent prognostic factors in pancreatic head adenocarcinoma patients undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy.

Objective To study the advantages of laparoscopic primary suturing of common bile duct plus transabdominal nasobiliary drainage in reducing the rate of bile leakage.Methods The clinical data of laparoscopic primary suturing of common bile duct with or without nasal bile duct drainage in Second People's Hospital of Chengdu were analyzed retrospectively.Results During laparoscopic common bile duct exploration,286 patients were treated by primary suturing without nasobiliary drainage (group without drainage),including 32 (11.2％) patients with bile leakage;350 patients were treated by primary suturing with transabdominal nasobihary drainage (group with drainage),including 11 (3.1％) patients with bile leakage.The incidences of bile leakage of the two groups were significantly different (P ＜ 0.05).When the diameter of the common bile duct was less than 11.0 mm,the incidence of bile leakage in the non-drainage group and the drainage group were 18.5％ (20/108) and 2.1％ (3/143),respectively.The incidence in the drainage group was significantly lower than that in the non-drainage group,and the difference was statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).When the diameter of common bile duct was larger than 11.0 mm,there was no significant difference in the incidences of bile leakage between the two groups (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusions The choice after laparoscopic primary suturing of common bile duct between with or without nasobiliary drainage should be determined according to the diameter of common bile duct.When a common bile duct diameter of less than 11.0 mm,nasobiliary drainage is recommended to reduce the rate of bile leakage.
