Objective To systematically review the efficacy and safety of laparoscopic hepatectomy (LH) and open hepatectomy (OH) for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). Methods PubMed, EMbase, The Cochrane Library, CBM, WanFang Data, CNKI databases were electronically searched to collect the case-control studies about LH vs. OH for patients with HCC from inception to December, 2015. Two reviewers independently screened literature, extracted data and assessed the risk of bias of included studies, then meta-analysis was performed by using RevMan 5.3 software. Results A total of 28 studies involving 1 908 patients were included. The results of meta-analysis showed that: the LH group was superior to OH group on complications (OR=0.35, 95%CI 0.26 to 0.48, P<0.000 01), hospital stay (MD=–4.18, 95%CI (–5.08, –3.29),P<0.000 01), and five years overall survival rate (OR=1.65, 95%CI 1.23 to 2.19,P=0.000 7) and disease-free survival rate (OR=1.51, 95%CI 1.12 to 2.03, P=0.006). However, no significant differences were found in one year and three years overall survival rate, disease-free survival rate, and postoperative recurrence rate. Conclusion Current evidence shows that the LH is superior to OH for the treatment of HCC, and may be amenable to surgery because of its safety and longtime efficacy. Due to limited quality and quantity of the included studies, more high quality studies are needed to verify above conclusion.

The comparative study was done between the LC and the traditional opened cholocystectomy (OC). The conclusion suggests that this therapy would have evry important significance to improve the efficiency of utility of medical resources and the benefit of health care and the quality of life of the patient. Some information had been furnished in this study to extend laparoscopic operation appropriately in our country.
Day surgery has been developed in China for over 30 years. However, the admission decisions for day surgery patients are still mainly based on expert experience, brainstorming, and institutional recommendation, and lack scientific admission criteria and universality. West China Hospital of Sichuan University has implemented methods such as semi-supervised learning based on heterogeneous data, to construct a more objective and accurate patient admission model based on large amounts of diagnosis and treatment data. This initiative aims to assist the country and hospital in reducing medical costs and alleviating the acute problem of the current contradiction between supply and demand of medical resources. It also seeks to optimize the utilization and allocation of bed resources, reduce the cost of patient management, enhance the theoretical research on patient admission methods in day surgery in China, and provide reference and inspiration for other hospitals in the day surgery industry in China.
Objective To explore the prevention and treatment of injury to brangches of the middle hepatic vein in laparoecopic cholecystectomy. Methods The clinical data of 27 hemorrhage cases of injury to brangches of the middle hepatic vein in laparoscopic cholecystectomy from January 2008 to January 2010 were analyzed retrospectively. Results All 27 hemorrhage cases were successfully stopped bleeding under laparoscopy by the way of packing hemostasis （n=17）, clamping hemostasis （n=6）, and suturing hemostasis （n=4）. In the 3 hemostasis methods, the operating time and amout of bleeding in the cases with packing hemostasis was the shortest and the least, respectively, which was （90.26±12.46） min and （240.32±80.15）ml, respectively, but the differences of the 3 methods were not statistical significance （P＞0.05）. Conclusions During laparoscopic cholecystectomy, gallbladder bed should be seperated in the correct plane to avoid injury to brangches of the middle hepatic vein. The most important to ensure surgery safety is applying the right surgical hemostasis method to stop bleeding quickly, and the open surgery will be the first choice in the right time when the difficult hemostasis occurs under laparoscopy.
Objective To explore the application effects of innovative health education on patients undergoing ambulatory laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). Methods A total of 139 patients undergoing ambulatory LC from November to December 2016 were selected as the control group, receiving the traditional health education; and other 141 patients undergoing ambulatory LC from February to March 2017 were selected as the observation group, receiving the innovative health education. The two groups were followed up and observed 1 day, 2, and 28 days after the discharge, and the incidence rates of adverse reactions such as postoperative pain, bleeding and incision infection were measured, and the disease knowledge mastery, self-care skills, medication compliance and satisfaction to nursing and hospital were evaluated. Results The total incidence rate of adverse reactions was 7.8% in the observation group and 25.2% in the control group (P<0.001). Medication compliance from high to low was 90, 46 and 5 cases in the observation group and 59, 64 and 16 cases in the control group (P<0.001). In the observation group, the scores of disease knowledge mastery, self-care cognition, nursing satisfaction and hospital satisfaction were 93.4±5.5, 91.4±4.5, 96.4±3.7 and 98.1±3.7, respectively, which were higher than those in the control group (83.8±8.7, 83.2±9.1, 91.5±9.2 and 94.8±7.3, respectively) with statistical significance (P<0.001). Conclusion Innovative health education has certain application effects on ambulatory LC, and it can significantly improve disease knowledge mastery and self-care cognition, and help to ensure the medical quality and safety during perioperative period, and improve the patients’ satisfaction.
Objective To observe the effects of epidural anaesthesia (EA) and general anaesthesia (GA) on the changes of plasma epinephrine (E) and norepinephrine (NE) during laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC). Methods Thirty patients undergoing elective LC were randomly divided into GA group (n＝15) and EA group (n＝15). The concentrations of plasma NE and E were measured at the following phases: before anaesthesia, before introducing pneumoperitoneum, during pneumoperitoneum, and at the end of operation. Results In EA group, the concentrations of NE weren′t significantly different at each phase, the concentrations of E significantly increased before and during pneumoperitoneum (Ｐ＜0.05) and returned to the baseline at the end of operation (Ｐ＞0.05). In GA group, the concentrations of NE and E didn′t change significantly before pneumoperitoneum, but increased during pneumoperitoneum (Ｐ＜0.05) and E didn′t return to the baseline at the end of operation (Ｐ＜0.05). The E concentrations of EA group was higher than that of GA group before pneumoperitoneum, but the NE concentration of EA group was lower than that of GA group during pneumoperitoneum (Ｐ＜0.05). Conclusion Both groups has significant stress reaction, but the stress reaction of EA group is weaker than that of GA group during LC.
Objective?To approach feasibility, safety, and the application range of pure laparoscopic resection （PLR）, hand-assisted laparoscopic resection （HALR）, and robotic liver resection （RLR） in the minimally invasive liver resection （MILR）. Methods?The clinical data of 128 patients underwent MILR in the Surgical Department of the Shanghai Ruijin Hospital from September 2004 to January 2012 were analyzed retrospectively. According to the different methods, the patients were divided into PLR group, HALR group, and RLR group. The intraoperative findings and postoperative recovery of patients in three groups were compared.?Results?There were 82 cases in PLR group, 3 cases of which were transferred to open surgery；the mean operating time was （145.4±54.4） minutes （range：40-290 minutes）；the mean blood loss was （249.3±255.7） ml （range：30-1 500 ml）；abdominal infection was found in 3 cases and biliary fistula in 5 cases after operation, but all recovered after conservative treatment；the mean length of hospital stay was （7.1±3.8） days （range：2-34 days）. There were 35 cases in HALR group, 3 cases of which were transferred to open surgery；the mean operating time was （182.7±59.2） minutes （range：60-300 minutes）；the mean blood loss was （754.3±785.2） ml （range：50-3 000 ml）；abdominal infection was found in 1 case, biliary fistula in 2 cases, and operative incision infection in 2 cases after operation, but all recovered after conservative treatment；the mean length of hospital stay was （15.4±3.7） days （range：12-30 days）. There were 11 cases in RLR group, 2 cases of which were transferred to open surgery； the mean operating time was （129.5±33.5） minutes （range：120-200 minutes）； the mean blood loss was （424.5±657.5） ml （range：50-5 000 ml）； abdominal infection was found in 1 case and biliary fistula in 1 case after operation, but all recovered after conservative treatment； the mean length of hospital stay was （6.4±1.6） days （range：5-9 days）. The operating time （P=0.001） and length of hospital stay （P=0.000） of the RLR group were shortest and the blood loss （P=0.000） of the PLR group was least among three groups. Conclusions?Minimally invasive resection is a safe and feasible. Different surgical procedures should be chosen according to different cases. The robotic liver resection provides new development for treatment of liver tumor.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the feasibility and surgical techniques of laparoscopic subtotal cholecystectomy （LSC) in treatment for patients with cholecystolithiasis combined with severe gallstone gallbladder inflammation, adhesion, or atrophy. MethodsThe clinical data of 83 patients with cholecystolithiasis combined with severe gallstone gallbladder inflammation, adhesion, or atrophy admitted to this hospital between January 2006 and April 2010 were analyzed retrospectively. ResultsEighty-one patients were performed LSC, 2 patients were converted to laparotomy. In which 39 patients with the part of wall residual of the fundus and (or) body of the gallbladder, 26 patients with residual of part of gallbladder neck, 18 patients with residual of part of gallbladder body and neck. Fifty-one cases were followed-up for 3 months to 4 years, there were 2 patients with the change like “mini gallbladder” by B ultrasound and no obviously clinical symptoms. There was no ostcholecystectomy syndrome in the patients with follow-up. ConclusionsLSC is a safe, effective, feasible procedure for severe gallstone gallbladder inflammation, adhesion, or atrophy, which can effectively prevent bile duct injury, bleeding, or other serious complications. While it can also reduce the rate of conversion to laparotomy.
Objective To systematically evaluate the efficiency of laparoscopic hepatectomy（LH） and conventionalopen hepatectomy （OH）in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma （HCC）. Methods The literatures about the therap-eutic effect of LH and OH on hepatocellular carcinoma were collected from PubMed， Chinese Journal Full-text Database （CJFD）， Wanfang Database， China Doctor/Master Dissertations Full-text Database （CDMD）， and China Proceedings of Conference Full-text Database （CPCD）from 2000 to 2011. RevMan 5.0 software was used for data analysis. Results Eleven controlled clinical trials were included in this analysis. These studies included a total of 781 patients：325 treated with LH and 456 treated with OH. The results of meta-analysis showed that LH group had shorter operation time〔WMD=-20.85， 95% CI （-29.54， -12.16）， P＜0.000 01〕， less operative blood loss 〔SMD=-0.42，95% CI（-0.65，-0.19）， P=0.000 4〕， a lower postoperative morbidity rate 〔OR=0.43，95% CI （0.28，0.65），P＜0.000 1〕， and shorter hospitalization days 〔WMD=-4.32，95％ CI （-6.29，-2.34），P＜0.000 1〕 than OH group. There was no significant difference in postoperative recurrence （P=0.80）， overall survival in 1-year （P=0.98）， 3-year （P=0.41）， and 5-year （P=0.12）， and in disease-free survival in 1-year （P=0.15）， 3-year （P=0.62）， and 5-year （P=0.99）between the two groups. Conclusions For the patients with hepatocellular carcinoma localized to the CouinaudⅡ，Ⅲ，Ⅳ，Ⅴ，and Ⅵ segments with a maximum lesion size of 5cm， as well as the tumor has no effect on the exposure of blood vessel of the first and second hepatic portal， and the liver functions are classified as Child B or A high grade， the laparoscopic liver resection is priority considered in the conditions allow.
Objective To summarize the treatment experience for concomitant diseases of other abdominal organs in laparoscopic cholecystectomy （LC）.
