Objective:To investigate feasibility, efficiency and safety of kissing pancreatojejunostomy after pancreatoduodenectomy.Methods:From Jan 2006 to Sep 2020, the clinical data of 267 patients undergoing pancreatoduodenectomy and kissing pancreatojejunostomy were retrospectively analyzed.Results:Grade B postoperative pancreatic fistula (POPF) occurred in 6.37%, Grade C POPF in 2.25% of patients. There was no mortality within 30 days postoperatively as to pancreatic fistula, by cut-off of pancreatic duct diameter at 3mm, there was no significant difference between two subgroups (15/140 vs. 8/127, P=0.20). also, when grouped by texture of the pancreas, no there was significant difference (20/194 vs. 3/73, P=0.11). Conclusions:Kissing pancreatojejunostomy is feasible and easy to perform. It also does not increase the POPF rate when applied to the pancreatojejunostomy with thin pancreatic duct and soft texture.

Objective:To investigate the cognition of terminal stage patients'dignity therapy,attitude towards its concept and scheme,willingness of its promotion in college students and to gain some recommendations for improvement.Methods:Combined quantitative and qualitative methods,an anonymous questionnaire survey was conducted in a convenience sample of 220 college students,of which 20 students were selected for in-depth interviews.Results:Only 17.73% of students had a correct understanding of dignity therapy,94.98% of them accepted its concept,92.96% of them held a positive attitude,74.38% of them were willing to promote dignity therapy,in which female students were dominated (P =0.041).Interview results showed that the contents of dignity therapy were to some extent stiff and not fit for Chinese patients,which might impede its promotion.Conclusion:College students lack the cognition of dignity therapy.But they hold a positive attitude and are willing to promote dignity therapy when they get to know its concept and contents.As seen,dignity therapy has a good future but there are still some obstructions in the promotion,and need to be localized.
