In 2014, the new concept of embolic stroke of undetermined source (ESUS) was first proposed by cryptogenic stroke/ESUS International Working Group. In the past 5 years, related clinical researches of ESUS have been deepened, and the results of many large clinical studies have been published. However, the guiding significance of this new concept to clinical practice is still controversial. By reviewing the background, diagnostic criteria, assessment, common emboli sources, anticoagulant therapy research advances and related limitations of ESUS, and analyzing the possible causes of negative anticoagulant therapy results, we explored the clinical value of this new classification.
ObjectiveTo explore the causes of bile duct injury due to laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) and the preventive methods. MethodsA total of 18 patients with bile duct injury (with the occurrence rate of 0.4%) after LC between January 2003 and December 2012 were included. The patients included 5 males and 13 females with the age of 29-63 years old[averaging (42.3±3.6) years old]. The clinical data of the patients were retrospectively analyzed. ResultsIn the 18 cases of bile duct injury, 5 cases occur in emergency operation, 13 cases in selective operation. The operators were attending physician in 13 cases, and senior position in the other 5 cases. The reasons of the injury included misjudgment of the cystic duct in 9, duct aberrance in 3, excessive stretch of cystic duct in 2, 2 Mirizzi syndrome withⅠ-type surgical injury in 2, and right liver duct injury because of inappropriate stripping of gallbladder in 1. ConclusionThe operator's experience, severe conglutination and the bile duct aberrance are the chief causes. Preventive methods include strict system of operation accession, careful selection of candidates, timely laparotomy, and paying attention to the accumulation of operation experience and skills.
ObjectiveTo investigate the reason, prevention, and treatment measures of gastrointestinal unplanned reoperation. MethodsClinical data of 21 patients who carried out gastrointestinal unplanned reoperation for various reasons from Jun. 2012 to Jun. 2013 in our hospital were retrospectively analyzed. ResultsTwenty-one of 2 492 patients with gastrointestinal tract surgery carried out gastrointestinal unplanned reoperation, and the incidence of reoperation was 0.8%. The causes of reoperation were intra-abdominal hemorrhage in 10 cases, gastrointestinal fistula in 7 cases, inflammatory intestinal obstruction with peritonitis in 1 case, and incision dehiscence in 3 cases. After undergoing suture hemostasis, colostomy, anastomotic fistula repair, debridement, and suture,20 cases were cured or improved, and 1 case died. The median of hospitalization expense was 76 000 yuan(46 000-116 000 yuan), and the median of hospital stay was 25-day(16-49 days). ConclusionsGastrointestinal unplanned reoperation can cause more serious economic and emotional burden to patients, standardizing surgical procedure and enhancing perioperative monitoring can reduce the incidence of unplanned reoperation. In addition, grasp legitimately the indications of reoperation, implement timely, and effective reoperation can avoid further deterioration of the disease.
【摘要】 目的 探讨新生儿死亡医疗纠纷中临床及法医病理学特点,启示儿科医护人员在防范此类医疗纠纷时应注意的相关问题。方法 对四川大学华西基础医学与法医学院法医病理教研室1998年1月—2007年12月的60例新生儿死亡尸检案例进行回顾性统计分析。结果 60例中除3例非正常死亡外,57例为自然性疾病死亡。其中出生后24 h死亡32例(56.1%),死亡男婴40例(70.2%)。死亡原因主要为胎粪吸入综合征、肺透明膜病、肺出血等窒息性疾病(49.1%)。其中医疗过失性纠纷21例(36.8%),医疗过失的原因主要为观察不仔细、处理不及时、误诊漏诊、产前检查或助产处理不当、告知不足等。涉及纠纷的医院以市级医院居多(58.7%)。结论 医护人员应严格遵守诊疗常规和操作规范,对新生儿加强监护,及时抢救,同时应积极与家属沟通,以减少医疗纠纷的发生。
