ObjectiveTo review the progress of treatment and prevention of breast cancer related lymphedema. MethodsThe recent literature concerning treatment and prevention of breast cancer related lymphedema was extensively consulted and reviewed. ResultsThe treatment of lymphedema is now based on complete decongestive therapy, supplemented with medicine and surgery. Those procedures have been proved to be safe and effective. Sentinel lymph node biopsy, axillary reverse mapping, and lymphaticovenous anastomoses have been used to decrease the incidence of lymphedema. They show promising effectiveness in short term, but the long-term effectiveness needs further tests. ConclusionIn clinical practice, many treatment methods are used to decrease lymphedema, and lymphedema prevention is playing an increasingly important role. Lymphaticovenous anastomoses shows a promising effectiveness in reducing lymphedema.
ObjectiveTo investigate the application of imbedding pancreaticojejunostomy in pure laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy. MethodsEighty-five cases of laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy in our hospital from May 2014 to December 2015 were analyzed retrospectively. According with inclusion criteria and exclusion criteria, 78 cases were investigated. They were divided into pancreatic duct-to-jejunum mucosa pancreaticojejunostomy group as controlled group (n=42) and imbedding pancreaticojejunostomy (technique of duct-to-mucosa PJ with transpancreatic interlocking mattress sutures) group as modified group (n=36). The rates of pancreatic fistula, abdominal infection/abscess, bile leakage, delayed gastric emptying, gastrointestinal/intraabdominal hemorrhage, pulmonary infection, and incision infection were investigated as well as hospital stays and pancreaticojejunostomy time in two groups were compared. ResultsThe rate of pancreatic fistula especially B to C grade pancreatic fistula in the modified group was obviously lower compared with which in the controlled group (8.3% vs. 31.0%, P < 0.05), pancreaticojejunostomy time ofmodified group was significantly shortened [(35.6±12.4) min vs. (52.8±24.6) min, P < 0.05] and total operative time also shortened [(322.4±23.6) min vs. (384.2±30.2) min, P < 0.05). There were no significant difference of the rates of abdominal infection/abscess, bile leakage, delayed gastric emptying, gastrointestinal/intraabdominal hemorrhage, pulmonary infection, ?incision infection, and hospital stays (P > 0.05)]. Conciusions The type of pancreaticojejunostomy has a significant impact on the rate of pancreatic fistula after laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy. Imbedding pancreaticojejunostomy can decrease the rate of pancreatic fistula after operation, and shorten the pancreaticojejunostomy time and total operative time.
Objective To systematically review the effectiveness of endoscopic dacryocystorhinostomy (En-DCR) with versus without Mitomycin C (MMC) for nasolacrimal obstruction. Methods Databases such as PubMed, EMbase, CENTRAL (Issue 12, 2012), VIP, WanFang Data, CBM and CNKI were electronically searched to collect the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) which investigated the comparison between En-DCR with and without MMC for nasolacrimal obstruction. The searched data was updated to December 31st, 2012. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, literature was screened, data were extracted, and the methodological quality of the included studies was also assessed. Then, meta-analysis was performed using RevMan 5.2.0 software and the quality of evidences was graded using GRADEpro 3.6 software. Results A total of 9 RCTs were included in the meta-analysis. The results of meta-analysis showed that, the recovery rate in the MMC group was significantly elevated (RR=1.13, 95%CI 1.04 to 1.22, P=0.003), the area of ostium in the MMC group was bigger at 1, 6 and 12 months than in the control group, postoperatively (MD=6.68 mm2, 95% 5.43 to 7.94, Plt;0.000 01; MD=11.61 mm2, 95%CI 4.67 to 18.55, P=0.001; MD=15.65 mm2, 95%CI 2.95 to 28.34, P=0.02), respectively, but the area of ostium in the MMC group at the third month was bigger than that in the control group (MD=8.20 mm2, 95%CI –6.67 to 23.08, P=0.28). The operative time was significantly prolonged in the MMC group (MD=10.1 min, 95%CI 8.00 to 12.20, Plt;0.000 01). Conclusion En-DCR combined with MMC could improve the recovery rate and prevent the over shrinkage of ostium area effectively due to nasolacrimal obstruction.
ObjectiveTo compare effectiveness of single-anastomosis duodenoileal bypass with sleeve gastrectomy (SADI-S) and single anastomosis sleeve ileal (SASI) bypass on weight loss and glucose regulating as well as difference in micronutrient deficiency in obese rats with type 2 diabetes mellitus. MethodsThirty-six Spraque-Dawley rats fed with high fat diet combined with intraperitoneal injection of low-dose streptozotocin (35 mg/kg) for 1 month were used to induce obese rats with type 2 diabetes mellitus, then were randomly averagely divided into 3 groups: SADI-S group, SASI group, and sham operation (SO) group. Eight rats from numbered rats of each group were randomly selected to carry out experimental observation. The rats’ body weight, food intake, and fasting blood glucose (FBG) were measured from before operation to postoperative 1–6 months. Meanwhile blood was collected before surgery, as well as at month 1 and 6 after surgery for oral glucose tolerance testing (OGTT) and insulin resistance testing (ITT). Serum glucagon-like peptide (GLP-1), hemoglobin, and albumin levels, as well as vitamin B12, calcium, and ferrum concentrations were measured before surgery as well as at month 1 and 6 after surgery. Results① The body weight, food intake (except 5–6 months), and FBG level in the SADI-S group and SASI group were lower than the SO group (P<0.05) from 1- to6-month after operation, and all obviously decreased at month 1 after operation (P<0.05), but there was no statistical differences between the SADI-S group and SASI group (P>0.05). ② The postoperative OGTT and ITT blood glucose levels in the SADI-S group and SASI group were lower than those in the SO group (P<0.05) and were lower than those in the preoperative levels (P<0.05), and the SADI-S group had a lower OGTT blood glucose level than the SASI group at month 6 after operation (P<0.05). ③ The GLP-1 levels of the SADI-S group and SASI group were higher than that of the SO group (P<0.05), and higher than before operation at month 6 after operation (P<0.05) , but there was no statistical difference was found between the SADI-S group and SASI group after operation (P>0.05). ④ The postoperative albumin levels of the SADI-S group and SASI groups= were lower than of the SO group (P<0.05) and were lower than before operation, and albumin level of the SADI-S group was lower than of the SASI group at postoperative month 6 (P<0.05); while the hemoglobin had no statistical differences among the 3 groups (P>0.05). ⑤ The ferrum concentration of the SADI-S group was lower than that of the SASI group and SO group at 1 month after operation (all P<0.05), while it increased slightly at month 6 after operation and had no statistical difference between the SADI-S group and SASI group (P>0.05); the calcium concentrations of the SADI-S group and SASI group only at 6 month after operation were lower than those of the SO group (P<0.05), and were lower as compared with before operation (P<0.05) , but no statistical difference was found between the SADI-S group and SASI group (P>0.05); the vitamin B12 had no statistical differences among the 3 groups (P>0.05). ConclusionsFor obese rats with type 2 diabetes mellitus, SADI-S and SASI have similar weight loss effect. Long-term glucose reduction of SADI-S shows a advantage than SASI, but influence of postoperative micronutrients of SASI is inferior to SASI.

Objective To explore the clinical effects of ileus tube in treatment of colonic obstruction caused by colorectal carcinoma. Methods Thirtytwo colorectal carcinoma patients with colonic obstruction admitted to our hospital from December 2005 to December 2008 were given onestage radical excision and anastomosis after transnasal or transanal placement of ileus tube for colonic decompression and drainage. Results Combined placement of transnasal and transanal ileus tube was successfully carried out in 19 cases, while the other 13 cases were treated only with transnasal ileus tube. Abdominal pain and distention of all cases were relieved 12-36 h after tube placement, while those of 26 cases disappeared 48-96 h later. Compared with before tube placement, abdominal circumferences of all cases were significantly reduced after tube placement, the mean reduction rate was (81.3±19.6)% vs. 100% (t=3.586, P=0.02). All cases were successfully treated by onestage radical excision and anastomosis 5-7 d after placement, and no serious complications such as peritoneal infection, anastomotic leakage etc. were found. Conclusion Preoperative intubation of ileus tube can enhance the therapeutic effects of onestage radical excision and anastomosis in patients with colorectal carcinoma combined with colonic obstruction.

Objective To assess the effectiveness and safety of hand-suture vs. stapling anastomosis in esophagogastrostomy. Methods The following databases such as CBM (1978 to February 2012), VIP (1989 to February 2012), CNKI (1994 to February 2012), WanFang Data (1980 to February 2012), The Cochrane Library, PubMed (1966 to February 2012), EMbase (1974 to February 2012), and relevant webs of clinical trials were searched to collect the randomized controlled trials (RCTs) and quasi-RCTs about hand-suture vs. stapling anastomosis in the incidence of anastomotic leakage following esophagogastrostomy. Moreover, relevant references and grey literature were retrieved on web engines including Google Scholar and Medical Martix, and the Chinese periodicals e.g. Chinese Journal of Oncology were also handsearched. According to the inclusion and exclusion criteria, the literature, was screened, the data were extracted, and the quality of the included studies was assessed. Then meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.0 software. Results A total of 9 RCTs involving 2 202 patients were included. The result of meta-analysis was as follows: the incidence of anastomotic leakage in the stapling anastomosis group was lower than that in the hand-suture anastomosis group (OR=0.43, 95%CI 0.26 to 0.71, Plt;0.01). Conclusion Stapling anastomosis is superior to hand-suture anastomosis in reducing the incidence of anastomotic leakage following esophagogastrostomy. For the limited quality and quantity of the included studies, this conclusion has to be further proved by more high-quality studies.
Objective To study the microsurgical anatomy of the facial nerve (FN ) trunk and provide some important morphometric data about facialhypoglossal nerve anastomosis (FHA). Methods Bilateral microsurgical dissection was performed on the heads of 9 cadarers fixed with formalinwith three different methods. In the first method, the posterior belly of the digastric muscle was used as a mark, and the FN trunk was identified on the medial side ofthis muscle. In the second method, dissection was initiated at the parotid gland, the FN trunk was identified at its entrance into the parotid gland. In the third method, the styloid process was identified and traced back to the stylomastoid foramen (SMF). The FN trunk was identified on its emergence from the SMF. In every dissection, the whole FN trunk was exposed; its diameter and depth at the the SMF and its length were measured; its relationship, with other structures was studied. Results The FN invariably emerged from the cranial base through the SMF. Its diameter upon its emergence from the foramen was 2.57±0.60mm. The mean minimal distance of the FN trunk from the skin surface in this area was 22.62±2.88 mm. The length of the FN trunk was 15.71±1.97 mm. The distance between the bifurcation and the mastoidale was 18.20±4.41 mm. The distance between the bifurcation and the mandibular angle was 39.91±8.38 mm. The distance between the mastoidale and the SMF was 17.91±2.68 mm. The branches fromthe FN trunk proximal to its bifurcation were the posterior auricular nerve, the digastric muscle nerve and the stylohyoid muscle nerve.Conclusion The third method to expose the FN trunk on its emergence from the SMFis safe and reliable. It is feasible to use only part of the hypoglossal nerve fibers for anastomosis with the FN trunk.
