Objective:To compare the perioperative outcomes between robotic pancreaticoduodenectomy(RPD)and laparoscopic pancreaticoduode-nectomy(LPD)in patients aged ≥65 years. Methods:The clinical data of 130 patients aged ≥65 years who received minimally invasive pancreaticoduodenectomy(MIPD)at Department of Gastrointestinal and Pancreatic Surgery,Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital from January 2019 to December 2022 were retrospectively analyzed.The patients were divided into the RPD group(n=66)and the LPD group(n=64)according to the operation method,and the perioperative clinical data were compared between the 2 groups. Results:Compared with the LPD group,the average age of patients in the RPD group was higher than that of the LPD group[(71.95±4.73)years vs(70.39±3.9)years,P＜0.05];the RPD group had more patients with diabetes(39.4％vs 18.8％,P＜0.05)and cardiopulmonary diseases(37.9％vs 17.2％,P＜0.05);the RPD group had shorter operation time[(272.91± 68.38)min vs(362.81±78.24)min,P＜0.05]and less intraoperative blood loss[median(range):1 00 mL(50-200 mL)vs 1 50 mL(1 00-200 mL),P＜0.05)];the RPD group had higher incidence of chylous fistula(1 2.1％vs 1.6％,P＜0.05)but lower incidence of surgical morbidity(37.9％vs 46.9％),serious complications(19.7％vs 34.4％),postoperative pancreatic fistula(12.1％vs 17.2％),biliary fistula(3.0％vs 3.1％),abdominal infection(10.6％vs 14.1％),postoperative bleeding(4.5％vs 4.5％),and postoperative cardiopulmonary complications(1 2.1％vs 20.3％)with no statistically significant difference(P＞0.05);the RPD group waited shorter time before restarting diet[(3.97±1.59)d vs(5.34±2.56)d,P＜0.05]. Conclusion:MIPD is safe and feasible in patients aged ≥65 years.The incidence of perioperative complications is similar between the 2 groups.Compared with LPD,RPD has shorter operation time,less intraoperative blood loss,and shorter duration before restarting diet after operation,which has certain clinical advantages.

Objective:To investigate the effects of anterolateral wide pedicled double dynamic flap of the calf in repair of soft tissue defects of mid-and forefoot.Methods:From September 2015 to Septemler 2020, 15 cases with severe soft tissue defects of mid-and forefoot were repaired with the anterolateral wide pedicled double dynamic flap of the calf. There were 11 males and 4 females with an average age of 37(range, 22-53)years old. Of the 15 cases, the defects were caused by traffic accident in 6 cases and objects smash in 9 cases. Three cases were simple soft tissue defect, and 12 cases combined with fracture or dislocation and bone defect. The size of soft tissue defects ranged from 4 cm×5 cm to 7 cm×12 cm. All wounds of donor sites were repaired by skin grafting. All patients entered follow-ups at the outpatient clinic or through WeChat. The appearance of flaps and limb recovery were recorded after surgery.Results:All cases followed-up for 6-24 (mean, 16) months. Two days after surgery, 1 case had flap swelling and cyanosis, which was improved after pedicle suture removal and surface bloodletting. The pedicle of the flap was slightly bloated in 4 cases, and the texture and appearance were good in 11 cases. The ankle function of all cases recovered satisfactorily. The ranges of ankle motion were 15°-20° for dorsiflexion and 30°-40° for plantar flexion. The donor site healed well and all the skin grafts survived.Conclusion:The anterolateral wide pedicled double dynamic flap of the calf is one of the ideal flaps for repairing the soft tissue defects of the mid-and forefoot with reliable blood supply, sufficient venous return, simple operation and no require a vascular anastomosis.

Objective:To study the feasibility and safety of redo laparoscopic operations for choledochojejunostomy stenosis after minimally invasive pancreaticoduodenectomy.Methods:The clinical data of 7 patients with choledochojejunostomy stenosis which developed after minimally invasive pancreaticoduodenectomy who were treated with redo laparoscopic surgery from August 2019 to July 2021 at the Division of Gastrointestinal and Pancreatic Surgery, Zhejiang Provincial People's Hospital were retrospectively studied. There were 3 males and 4 females, with the age of (41.7±4.3) (ranged 27 to 54) years. The timing of reoperation, intraoperative blood loss, and postoperative complications were analyzed. An anastomotic restenosis was looked for on followed-up by outpatient interviews or phone calls.Results:The time interval of between diagnosis of the first postoperative anastomotic stenosis and surgery was 3-20 months, with a median of 9 months. Of the 7 patients, 5 patients underwent laparoscopic biliary anastomotic resection and reconstruction, and the remaining 2 patients underwent laparoscopic exploration of the anastomosis, removal of intrahepatic bile duct stones, and re-anastomosis. The median operative time was 180 (150-350) minutes. The median postoperative hospital stay was 6 (ranged 5 to 21) days. The intraoperative blood loss was 50 (ranged 20 to 300) ml. There was no intraoperative blood transfusion. One patient developed grade B biliary leakage after the surgery, improved with puncture and drainage. The remaining patients had no serious complications. There was no mortality. The median follow-up was 8 (ranged 1 to 23) months, during which no recurrence of biliary anastomotic stenosis occurred in all these patients.Conclusion:For patients with biliary anastomotic stenosis after minimally invasive pancreaticoduodenectomy, redo laparoscopic operations offered an alternative treatment option with satisfactory outcomes.

This review focused on the progress in laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy(LPD) in the past six years.With the appropriate approaches under laparoscopy, including the resection and reconstruction, LPD has been proved to be safe and feasible. In some centers, LPD has been routine with rapid growth of numbers, it not only benefit the patients with fast recovery, but also benefit the trainees with similar sights as the primary surgeon and good videos of the procedures. However, LPD is still controversial as the more complications in some centers and inconclusive oncologic outcomes. Thus, in the further, a long-time outcome monitoring of LPD is essential. A registry of a prospectively maintained database may be a need for LPD to evaluate its outcomes by multicenter randomized control trials, and real world research may be of value. Structured LPD training programs are valuable for the new surgeons.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of multidimensional model of laparoscopic suture training in spread of laparoscopic pancreatic surgery.Methods:The surgeons who took advanced training in Department of Gastroenterology and Pancreatic Surgery in Zhejiang Provincial People’s Hospital from September 2018 to March 2020 were enrolled. Theoretical presentation, simulation training and assessment, clinical practices were included in the multidimensional training model. The " mattress suture" module (2 mattress sutures) in the LAP Mentor laparoscopic advanced simulator was used as the initial assessment and post-training assessment. The average needle loading time, time to form a knot, total time, accuracy rate of precise needle passage through the entrance and exit dots, and total aggressive tissue handing provided in the LAP Mentor were analyzed pre- and post-training. The trained surgeons were followed up for their clinical work in own hospitals.Results:A total of 13 surgeons were trained, including 4 deputy chief physicians, 7 attending physicians over 3 years, and 2 attending physicians under 3 years. The trainees had only primary laparoscopic surgery experience and no laparoscopic pancreatic surgery experience. After training in the above scheme, the average needle loading time was shortened from (93.6±31.6) s to (45.7±13.6) s, and the time to form a knot was reduced from (138.9±46.2) s to (62.1±22.9) s, and total time to accomplish the suture shortened from (15.9±3.8) min to (6.7±3.5) min. The accuracy rate of precise needle passage through the entrance and exit dots increased from (63.7±10.3)% to (89.6±9.8)%. The total aggressive tissue handing decreased from (18.2±12.5) to (6.7±4.9). All those data showed statistical differences ( P<0.05). During follow-up, all traineescan operate the laparoscopic pancreatic surgery proficiently. One trainee completed his first laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenctomy as the primary surgeon, and one trainee complete the splenic vein branch suture to stop hemostasis during laparoscopic pancreatectomy with spleen-preserving spleen, and 3 trainees completed laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenctomy as the first assistant surgeons with good outcomes. Conclusion:Multidimensional model of laparoscopic suture training can improve the trainee's suture skill and help perform complex laparoscopic pancreatic surgery with self-confidence.

Objective:To examine the clinical efficiency of laparoscopic gastroduodenostomy with BillrothⅠanastomosis with manual suture.Methods:The clinic data of 36 patients with gastric cancer who underwent laparoscopic gastroduodenostomy with Billroth Ⅰ anastomosis from November 2017 to September 2019 in Department of Gastrointestinal and Pancreatic Surgery, Zhejiang Provincial People′s Hospital were analyzed retrospectively.There were 22 males and 14 females, aged (64.3±9.3) years(range: 43 to 80 years), underwent complete laparoscopic gastroduodenostomy. The laparoscopic manual suture was used for Billroth Ⅰ anastomosis.Results:All the laparoscopic radical gastrectomy and manual suturing gastroduodenostomy were successfully performed. The operation time was (226.7±40.4) minutes (range: 180 to 320 minutes), including (24.8±7.1) minutes (range: 15 to 48 minutes) for gastroduodenostomy.There was (3.8±0.9) days (range: 2 to 6 days) for anal exhaust, (5.7±2.0) days (range: 3 to 13 days) for extubation of gastric tube, and (10.3±3.1) days (range: 7 to 19 days) for hospitalization. There was no death in perioperative period. Postoperative pathological report showed 3 cases of highly differentiated adenocarcinoma, 5 cases of moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma, 22 cases of poorly differentiated adenocarcinoma and 6 cases of signet ring cell carcinoma, including 27 cases in T1 stage and 9 cases in T2 stage. The number of lymph nodes harvested was 36.4±8.9 (range: 23 to 60). Lymph node metastasis was positive in 7 cases and negative in 29 cases. TNM stage included 24 cases in ⅠA stage, 8 cases in ⅠB stage and 4 cases in Ⅱ stage. After the operation, the upper digestive tract radiography showed that the anastomosis opening was unobstructed without complications such as anastomotic stenosis.Conclusion:Laparoscopic gastroduodenostomy with Billroth Ⅰ anastomosis with manual suture is safe and feasible, has a good short-term effect.

Objective:To summarize the characteristics and difficulties of minimal invasive surgery for adolescent with pancreatic head tumor.Methods:The data of adolescent younger than 28 years old with pancreatic head tumor treated at Department of Gastroenterology and Pancreatic Surgery, Zhejiang Province People′s Hospital from January 2014 to December 2019 were analyzed retrospectively. Fifteen cases were enrolled, included 5 males and 10 females. The median age was 20 years(range: 11 to 27 years) and the body mass index was (19.8±2.3)kg/m 2(range: 17.3 to 21.6 kg/m 2). Results:Standard pancreaticoduodenectomy was performed in 12 cases, including 9 cases of laparoscopic surgery and 3 cases of robotic-assisted surgery, and laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy with resection of hepatic flexure of colon was performed on 1 case, and robotic-assisted duodenum-preserving pancreatic head resection with pancreatogastrostomy was performed on other 2 cases. The operative time was (269.0±65.1)minutes(range: 150 to 410 minutes), and the blood loss was (135.6±52.7)ml(range: 50 to 400 ml). Six patients got postoperative complications with gastrointestinal bleeding biochemical leakage and intestinal obstruction( n=1), pancreatic biochemical leakage( n=1), bile leakage( n=1), chylous leakage( n=1), wound infection( n=1), hepatic injury( n=1). The median postoperative hospital stay was 13 days(range: 9 to 22 days).The pathologic findings were solid pseudopapillary neoplasms( n=8), neuroendocrine neoplasms( n=3), introductal papillary mucinous neoplasm( n=1), cystic fibroma( n=1), serous cystadenoma( n=1), Ewing sarcoma( n=1).The median follow-up was 37 months(range: 2 to 75 months).The patient with Ewing sarcoma was diagnosed as liver metastasis at 41 months after surgery and died at 63 months after surgery.All the other patients survived without tumor.Three patients got the long-term complication of bile duct. Conclusions:Most of pancreatic head tumors for adolescent are benign or low malignant. Minimally invasive surgery be the first choice, and function-preserving surgery should be taken into account as much as possible.Perioperative management and communication is essential as the parents pay much attention to the quality of life after surgery.
