Objective:To report the long-term outcomes of Chinese rectal cancer patients after adopting a Watch and Wait (W&W) strategy following neoadjuvant therapy (NAT).Methods:This multicenter, cross-sectional study was based on real-world data. The study cohort comprised rectal cancer patients who had achieved complete or near complete clinical responses (cCRs, near-cCRs) after NAT and were thereafter managed by a W&W approach, as well as a few patients who had achieved good responses after NAT and had then undergone local excision for confirmation of pathological complete response. All participants had been followed up for ≥2 years. Patients with distant metastases at baseline or who opted for observation while living with the tumor were excluded. Data of eligible patients were retrospectively collected from the Chinese Wait-and-Watch Data Collaboration Group database. These included baseline characteristics, type of NAT, pre-treatment imaging results, evaluation of post-NAT efficacy, salvage measures, and treatment outcomes. We herein report the long-term outcomes of Chinese rectal cancer patients after NAT and W&W and the differences between the cCR and near-cCR groups.Results:Clinical data of 318 rectal cancer patients who had undergone W&W for over 2 years and been followed up were collected from eight medical centers (Peking University Cancer Hospital, Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center, Sun Yat-sen University Cancer Center, Shanghai Changhai Hospital, Peking Union Medical College Hospital, Liaoning Cancer Hospital, the First Hospital of Jilin University, and Yunnan Cancer Hospital.) The participants comprised 221 men (69.4%) and 107 women (30.6%) of median age 60 (26-86) years. The median distance between tumor and anal verge was 3.4 (0-10.4) cm. Of these patients, 291 and 27 had achieved cCR or near-cCR, respectively, after NAT. The median duration of follow-up was 48.4 (10.2-110.3) months. The 5-year cumulative overall survival rate was 92.4% (95%CI: 86.8%-95.7%), 5-year cumulative disease-specific survival (CSS) rate 96.6% (95%CI: 92.2%-98.5%), 5-year cumulative organ-preserving disease-free survival rate 86.6% (95%CI: 81.0%-90.7%), and 5-year organ preservation rate 85.3% (95%CI: 80.3%-89.1%). The overall 5-year local recurrence and distant metastasis rates were 18.5% (95%CI: 14.9%-20.8%) and 8.2% (95%CI: 5.4%-12.5%), respectively. Most local recurrences (82.1%, 46/56) occurred within 2 years, and 91.0% (51/56) occurred within 3 years, the median time to recurrence being 11.7 (2.5-66.6) months. Most (91.1%, 51/56) local recurrences occurred within the intestinal lumen. Distant metastases developed in 23 patients; 60.9% (14/23) occurred within 2 years and 73.9% (17/23) within 3 years, the median time to distant metastasis being 21.9 (2.6-90.3) months. Common sites included lung (15/23, 65.2%), liver (6/23, 26.1%), and bone (7/23, 30.4%) The metastases involved single organs in 17 patients and multiple organs in six. There were no significant differences in overall, cumulative disease-specific, or organ-preserving disease-free survival or rate of metastases between the two groups (all P>0.05). The 5-year local recurrence rate was higher in the near-cCR than in the cCR group (41.6% vs. 16.4%, P<0.01), with a lower organ preservation rate (69.2% vs. 88.0%, P<0.001). The success rates of salvage after local recurrence and distant metastasis were 82.1% (46/56) and 13.0% (3/23), respectively. Conclusion:Rectal cancer patients who achieve cCR or near-cCR after NAT and undergo W&W have favorable oncological outcomes and a high rate of organ preservation. Local recurrence and distant metastasis during W&W follow certain patterns, with a relatively high salvage rate for local recurrence. Our findings highlight the importance of close follow-up and timely intervention during the W&W process.

Objective:To explore the effects of posterior malleolar fracture fixation on the rotational stability of the ankle joint.Methods:A total of 20 fresh cadaveric specimens of lower limbs were anatomized to measure the area of attachment of the posterior inferior tibiofibular ligament and transverse ligament complex to the posterior surface of the tibia. One healthy volunteer was selected to construct a finite element model for the intact tibiofibular and ankle joints and finite element models for posterior malleolar fracture with different posterior projection areas. A load of 600 N was vertically applied to the inferior calcaneus along the tibial mechanical axis. The contact area and maximum Von Mises stress of the distal tibial articular surface were analyzed to verify the validity of the model for the intact tibiofibular and ankle joints. In the finite element models for the posterior malleolar fracture (S, 1/2S, 1/4S, 1/8S and 1/16S model groups, with S standing for the complete projection area of the ligament complex on the posterior surface of the tibia), the width increase in the tibiofibular clear space was measured when a vertical load of 600 N and external rotation load of 5 N·m were applied to the ankle joint after the reduction and fixation of posterior malleolar fracture. The cutoff value of the posterior projection area of posterior malleolar fracture that could maintain the rotational stability of the ankle joint was assessed.Results:The measurement results of the cadaveric specimens showed that the area of attachment of the posterior inferior tibiofibular ligament and transverse ligament complex to the posterior surface of the tibia was relatively large. It was attached to the posterolateral area of the distal tibia with the highest point located at (45.2±5.6)mm from the articular surface. With the increase in the distance from the joint line, the width of the posterior attachment area of the ligament complex was decreased. Results of the finite element analysis showed that in the finite element model for the intact tibiofibular and ankle joints, the tibiotalar joint contact area was 324.02 mm 2 and the maximum Von Mises stress was 4.495 1 MPa with a vertical load of 600 N. In the finite element models for the posterior malleolar fracture, the distal tibiofibular clear spaces of the S, 1/2S, 1/4S and 1/8S model groups increased by less than 2 mm following loading, while it was increased by 3.445 8 mm in the 1/16S model group. The cutoff value of the posterior tibial projection area that could maintain the rotational stability of the ankle joint was 1/8S. Conclusions:The attachment area of the posterior inferior tibiofibular ligament and transverse ligament complex to the posterior surface of the tibia is large. Both the axial stability and rotational stability of the ankle joint should be considered in the treatment selection for posterior malleolar fracture. Simple posterior malleolar fixation is recommended to restore the rotational stability and axial stability of the ankle joint when tibiofibular syndesmosis is unstable and the cutoff value is larger than or equal to 1/8, while tibiofibular syndesmosis screws must be implanted when tibiofibular syndesmosis is unstable and the cutoff value is less than 1/8.

Objective:A novel anatomic posterior malleolus locking plate for Chinese people was designed, researched, developed, and tested biomechanically.Methods:An anatomic parameter database of posterior malleolus of Chinese people was established by collecting CT images of ankle joints from 100 healthy volunteers in Shanghai Tongji hospital from June 2022 to May 2023. Combined with relevant computer-aided technologies, a novel anatomic posterior malleolus locking plate for Chinese people was designed and produced. In addition, model verification and biomechanical test were carried out on vertical displacements under different fixation modes and different axial loads (500, 1 000, and 1 500 N). Failure loads at a displacement of 2 mm and maximum failure loads at the complete failure of internal fixation were also tested and recorded.Results:Based on the imaging anatomic measurement, the width quartile of posterior malleolus was 19.4, 26.6, 35.0 mm. The 3D reconstruction models of ankle joint CT corresponded to small, medium, and large basic posterior malleolus plates. Height of the screw safety zone was 5.5(5.3, 5.7) mm. The tip-back angle was 153.0°(148.5°, 157.5°) and tip-back height was 20.0(19.7, 20.9) mm. The novel anatomic posterior malleolus locking plate based on tibiofibular and ankle joint CT scan and relevant computer-aided technologies fit well with posterior malleolus of tibia, showing anatomic fitting. Based on the associate biomechanical test, the novel plate fixation had smaller vertical displacements of posterior malleolus fragment under axial loads of 500, 1 000, and 1 500 N compared with the control plate, but greater failure loads when the vertical displacement of the posterior malleolus fragment was 2 mm and greater maximum failure loads at complete failure of the internal fixation. At an axial load of 500 N, the vertical displacements of the posterior malleolus fragment after posterior malleolus fixation with a control plate, a 6-hole anatomical locking plate, and a 5-hole anatomical locking plate were 0.60±0.02, 0.45±0.04, and 0.52±0.04 mm, respectively with significant difference ( F=88.287, P<0.001); at an axial load of 1 000 N, the vertical displacements were 2.22±0.03, 1.10±0.03, and 1.15±0.03 mm for the three fixation modes, respectively, and the difference was statistically significant ( F=10 061.890, P<0.001); At an axial load of 1 500 N, the vertical displacements were 2.81±0.04, 1.50±0.03 and 1.67±0.03 mm for the three fixation modes, respectively with significant difference ( F=9 774.019, P<0.001). When the vertical displacement of the posterior malleolus fragment was 2 mm, the failure loads for the three fixation modes were 0.80(0.73, 0.80)、2.00(1.93, 2.00) and 1.70(1.70, 1.70) kN, respectively with significant differences ( H=54.245, P<0.001). The maximum failure loads at complete failure of the internal fixation for the three fixation modes were 1.90(1.90, 1.98)、4.30(4.30, 4.30) and 3.70(3.63, 3.70) kN, respectively with significant differences ( H=53.863, P<0.001). Conclusions:The novel anatomic posterior malleolus locking plate for Chinese people was well matched to the posterior malleolus with high mechanical strength and good stability, showing a promising future for clinical application.

To evaluate the feasibility and safety of suprapubic three-arm robot-assisted laparoscopic radical prostatectomy (STA-RLRP). Fifteen patients with prostatic cancer underwent STA-RLRP. All the 15 procedures were completed successfully, without the need for ancillary trocars or additional instruments. No patient required conversion to standard laparoscopy or open surgery. STA-RLRP is feasible and safe with good short-term tumor control, satisfactory recovery of urinary control function and good cosmetic outcome, which is worthy of clinical application.

Objective:To evaluate the performance, efficacy and safety of a novel portable endoscopy system for upper gastrointestinal examination.Methods:A multicentered, open-label, randomized, non-inferiority controlled study was conducted in 3 clinical research centers from June 2019 to June 2020, and a total of 90 outpatients admitted to Department of Gastroenterology were randomly assigned to the trial group ( n=44) undergoing portable endoscopy and the control group ( n=46) undergoing Olympus endoscopy. The examination success rate, image quality, performance, overall operation satisfaction rate, biopsy success rate and adverse events of the two groups were compared. Results:The examination success rates of the trial group and the control group were 97.73% (43/44) and 100.00% (46/46) respectively with a difference of -2.27% (95% CI: -6.68%-2.13%), higher than the set non-inferiority margin of -10%. Rates of good and excellent image quality were 100% in both groups, and the difference of 0 was higher than the set non-inferiority margin of -10%. There was no significant difference in the rate of good and excellent performance of the operating system between the two groups [97.67% (42/43) VS 100.00% (46/46), P=0.483]. There was significant difference in the overall satisfactory rate of the operation between the two groups [86.05% (37/43) VS 100.00% (46/46), P=0.011]. A total of 9 cases underwent endoscopic biopsy, including 5 cases in the trial group and 4 cases in the control group. The biopsy channels in both groups were smooth and the biopsy were successfully completed. There was no significant difference in adverse event rate between the two groups [25.00% (11/44) VS 10.87%(5/46), χ2=3.07, P=0.080]. All adverse events disappeared in 48 hours, and no severe adverse events or device defect events occurred. Conclusion:The novel portable endoscopic system is comparable to Olympus endoscopic system in terms of the operating performance, the image quality and safety. Therefore, this system is safe and effective for upper gastrointestinal examination.

Objective:To investigate the application value of three-dimensional (3D) printing technology assisted laparoscopic anatomic liver resection of segment 8 (Lap-S8).Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted.

There were 7 males and 1 female, aged from 49.0 to 80.0 years, with a median age of 56.5 years. Of the 8 patients, 6 cases underwent laparoscopic anatomic liver resection of the entire segment 8, 1 case underwent laparoscopic anatomic liver resection of ventral subsegmental of the segment 8 and 1 case underwent laparoscopic anatomic liver resection of dorsal subsegmental of the segment 8. 3D printing technology was used to assist preoperative evaluation and intraoperative navigation for all 8 patients. Observation indicators: (1) surgical situations; (2) postoperative situations; (3) follow-up. Follow-up was conducted using outpatient examination, internet or telephone interview to detect survival and tumor recurrence of patients after operation up to March 2021. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean±SD, and measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Count data were described as absolute numbers. Results:(1) Surgical situations: all the 8 patients underwent 3D printing technology assisted Lap-S8 successfully, without conversion to open surgery. The operation time, hepatic portal occlusion time and volume of intraoperative blood loss of the 8 patients were (216±41)minutes, (56±11)minutes and 75 mL(range, 50 to 300 mL), respectively. There was no intraoperative blood transfusion in 8 patients, and the surgical margin of the 8 patients was negative. (2) Postoperative situations: the duration of postoperative hospital stay of the 8 patients were (9±3)days. There was no complication such as postoperative hemorrhage, biliary fistula, liver abscess or abdominal infection occurred. (3) Follow-up: all the 8 patients were followed up for 3.0?24.0 months, with a median follow-up time of 12.5 months. During the follow-up, 1 of 8 patients with preoperative diagnosis of recurrent hepatocellular carcinoma developed tumor recurrence at 5 months after operation. The patient underwent laparoscopic surgery followed with the transcatheter arterial chemoembolization and target therapy, and survived with tumor. There was no tumor recurrence in the other 7 patients.Conclusion:3D printing technology assisted Lap-S8 is safe and feasible.
