Objective:To explore the anal function and postoperative complications of 2-stage Turnbull-Cutait pull-through coloanal anastomosis (TCA) for low rectal cancer.Methods:Patients undergoing radical rectal cancer resection from Feb 2023 to Nov 2024 in the First Hospital of Jilin University were divided into the TCA surgery group and the low anterior resection combined with prophylactic stoma (LAR) surgery group.Results:Among the 102 patients, there were 50 cases in the TCA group and 52 cases in the LAR group. In the single-arm analysis of the TCA group, the overall complication rate was 44%. The incidence rates of severe LARS at 1 month, 3 months, and 6 months after surgery were 97%, 77%, and 64% respectively. There was no significant difference in the complication rate within 30 days after surgery between the two groups,(44% vs. 38%, χ2=0.135, P>0.05). There was no significant difference in the incidence rate of severe LARS between the TCA group and the LAR group (77% vs. 69%, χ2=0.202, P>0.05), and there was not significant difference in the incidence rate of severe LARS between the two groups at the 6th month after surgery,(64% vs. 48%, χ2=1.132, P>0.05). Conclusion:In patients who underwent TCA surgery, the LARS symptoms gradually decreased over time. Compared with patients undergoing low anterior resection and stoma reversal, there were no significant differences in complications within 30 days after surgery and LARS symptoms within half a year.

OBJECTIVEThe aim of this study is to discuss the curative effect of introperitoneal hyperthermic perfusion chemotherapy(IHPC) combined with systemic neoadjuvant chemotherapy on the gastric cancer patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis.

METHODSSixty-four patients with gastric cancer and peritoneal carcinomatosis who were hospitalized in the Department of Gastrointestinal Surgery of First Hospital of Jilin University from December 2006 to December 2013. After peritoneal carcinomatosis was confirmed during laparoscopic exploration, FOLFOX6 (oxaliplatin and calcium folinate and 5-Fu) was performed for systemic chemotherapy. One course was 14 days and a complete treatment includes four courses. At the same time, patients underwent peritoneal catheter insertion and received IHPC(5-Fu 1 500 mg/m(2) and Cisplatin 35 mg/m(2) were added into 0.9% NaCl solution 2 000 ml, the infusion velocity was 35-45 ml/min, infusion time was 45-60 minutes, the temperature was controlled to 41°C). A comprehensive evaluation was taken after the fourth course of treatment before operation. Further surgical therapy was performed according to the assessment result.

RESULTSSixty-four patients received IHPC combined with systemic chemotherapy. Thirty-two patients(50.0%) had partial response, 18(28.1%) stable disease, and 14(21.9%) progressive disease after chemotherapy. No severe complications or death occurred during the neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Thirty-two patients(50.0%) received radical resection, 10(15.6%) palliative operation, and another 22 patients(37.4%) didn't comply with inclusion criteria of operation. Patients receiving operation had a median survival time of 678 days, which was significantly longer than patients without operation, with a median survival time of 251(χ(2)=23.34, P=0.02).

CONCLUSIONSIHPC combined with systemic chemotherapy is an effective therapeutic method for gastric cancer patients with peritoneal carcinomatosis in terms of reducing preoperative tumor load and achieving radical resection.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the effect of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acids (PUFA) on postoperative inflammatory response and clinical efficacy in gastric cancer patients with nutritional risk.

METHODSAll patients with gastric cancer in our department from June 2013 to January 2014 undergoing radical gastrectomy were prospectively enrolled in the study. Patients who matched the selection criteria were randomly divided into two groups: trial group (with omega-3 PUFA in parenteral nutrition) and control group (without omega-3 PUFA in parenteral nutrition). Levels of inflammatory factors (serum CRP, TNF-α, IL-1, IL-6, IL-10) and nutrition-related proteins (prealbumin, retinol conjugated protein and transferrin) were compared between the two groups before operation and 2, 4 and 6 days after operation. Incidence of postoperative systemic inflammatory response syndrome (SIRS) and other indicators associated with efficacy were compared between the two groups as well.

RESULTSForty-seven patients were finally included in this study with 21 patients in the trial group and other 26 in the control group. There were no significant differences of inflammatory factors and nutrition-related proteins between the two groups before operation (all P>0.05). In the 6th days after operation, the levels of proinflammatory cytokines, including CRP, IL-1 and IL-6 were significantly lower in the trial group as compared to the control group, while the level of IL-10 (inhibiting inflammatory cytokine) was higher in the trial group, as well as levels of nutrition proteins(all P<0.05). The trial group had significantly lower rate of SIRS than the control group [57.1%(12/21) vs. 84.6% (22/26), P=0.036]. Compared with the control group, patients in the trial group had shorter bowel sound recovery time [(12.3±1.1) d vs. (3.1±1.3) d, P=0.025], earlier passage of flatus [(3.1±1.0) d vs. (3.9±1.2) d, P=0.025] and shorter hospital stay [(9.4±2.1) d vs. (10.9±2.5) d, P=0.038], but there was no difference in postoperative complication rate between the two groups (P=0.678).

CONCLUSIONSOmega-3 PUFA can reduce the release of inflammatory promoters, promote the release of inhibiting inflammatory cytokine IL-10, decrease the incidence of SIRS, improve patients' nutritional state, expedite the recovery of gastrointestinal function and shorten patients' recovery time.
