Objective To investigate the application of transverse fascia in inguinal hernia repair. Methods In this study, 617 patients underwent inguinal hernia repair between January 1990 and December 2005 in our hospital were included, which were divided into two groups according to different operative ways: transverse fascia method group (n=337) and Bassini method group (n=280). Then intraoperative results, postoperative complications, and rehabilitated results of patients in two groups were compared. Results Compared with Bassini method group, the patients in transverse fascia method group did not show significant difference in operative time and blood loss during operation (Pgt;0.05). The differences of severe postoperative pain, testicular swelling, the time of the body’s restore for normal activities, and recurrence rate of patients between two groups were significant (Plt;0.05), while the difference of hematoma of scrotum and infection of incisional wound (Pgt;0.05). Conclusion The strengthening of posterior wall by transverse fascia and reconstruction of inner ring is a simple and effective method for inguinal hernia repair.
ObjectiveTo systematically evaluate the influence of posterior mediastinal and retrosternal route on the incidence of complications in patients with esophageal carcinoma after esophagectomy. MethodsA systematic literature search for studies which were published on PubMed, EMbase, CBM, VIP was performed from database establishment to April 2014. We included randomized controlled trials and case control studies related to the influence of two routes on the incidence of complications of patients with esophagectomy. We assessed the methodology quality of included researches, and extracted data. RevMan 5.2 was used for meta-analysis. ResultsA total of 23 studies including 7 randomized controlled trials and 16 case control studies were included in this study. Meta-analysis showed that there was statistically significant difference in case control studies related to anastomotic leakage between two groups[OR=0.39, 95%CI (0.30, 0.50), P < 0.01]. However, no statistical difference in anastomotic stricture was observed between the two groups[randomized controlled trials:RR=0.80, 95%CI (0.49, 1.30), P=0.36; case control studies:OR=0.64, 95%CI (0.40, 1.03), P=0.07]. And there was no statistical difference in cardiac complications[randomized controlled trials:RR=0.70, 95%CI (0.46, 1.06), P=0.09; case control studies:OR=1.13, 95%CI (0.70, 1.81), P=0.62]. There was also no statistical difference in pulmonary complications[randomized controlled trials:RR=1.27, 95%CI(0.92, 1.75), P=0.14; case control studies:OR=0.91, 95%CI (0.66, 1.27), P=0.59]. Besides, there was also no statistical difference in postoperative mortality[randomized controlled trials:RR=0.47, 95%CI (0.19, 1.16), P=0.10; case control studies:OR=0.18, 95%CI (0.03, 1.01), P=0.05]. ConclusionFor patients with esophageal carcinoma undergoing esophagectomy and reconstruction, the incidence of anastomotic leakage was significantly lower with posterior mediastinal route than that of retrosternal route.
【 Abstract 】 Objective To investigate the features and risk factors of bacterial infection after orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT) and summarize the experiences for prevention and treatment of infection. Methods The clinical materials of 79 patients underwent OLT from December 2004 to January 2007 were reviewed. The incidence and sites of postoperative bacterial infections as well as species of bacteria and the situation of drug resistance were retrospectively analyzed. Results Thirty-two (40.5%) out of 79 patients developed bacterial infections. Infection mainly occurred in lung, abdominal cavity and blood, which were mainly caused by Escherichia coli, staphylococcus aureus, klebsiella pneumoniae, staphylococcus epidermidis and enterococcus bacteria. The main risk factors included delayed restoration of gastrointestinal function (gt;5 d), poorly preoperative liver function (Child C grade), hypoproteinemia and persistent postoperative hyperglycemia (gt;11.0 mmol/L). Perioperative decontamination in digestive tract was a protective factor in the prevention of bacterial infection. Conclusion Bacterial infection is one of the most severe complications after OLT. Therefore, it is very important to remove those risk factors, make early diagnosis and take effective treatment ．
ObjectiveTo comparatively analyze the effect of one-stage nonstented tubularized incised plate urethroplasty (TIP) on operative pain and compl ication by comparing with urethral catheter and urethral stent drainages. MethodsBetween March 2010 and June 2013, 214 cases of distal and mid-shaft hypospadias underwent TIP, and the cl inical data were analyzed retrospectively. The patients were divided into 3 groups based on different urinary drainage techniques: indwell ing urethral catheter was used in 68 cases (group A), indwell ing urethral stent in 70 cases (group B), and nonstented drainage in 76 cases (group C). There was no significant difference in age, hypospadias type, and accompany malformation among 3 groups (P>0.05). At 2 days after operation, Wong-Banker facial scale (WBS) and Children's Hospital of Eastern Ontario Pain Scale (CHEOPS) were used for pain and praxiology assessment. The complications after operation also were observed and compared among 3 groups. ResultsAll patients were followed up 6-25 months (median, 11.8 months). At 2 days after operation, the median WBS scores were 4.0 (0-10), 3.5 (0-10), and 3.0 (0-10) in groups A, B, and C, respectively; median CHEOPS pain scores were 6.0 (1-13), 6.0 (1-13), and 4.0 (1-11), respectively. The WBS pain score and CHEOPS pain score in group C were significantly lower than those in groups A and B (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between group A and group B (P>0.05). The postoperative complication occurred in 27 cases (39.7%) of group A, 29 cases (41.4%) of group B, and 13 cases (17.1%) of group C; two or more than two complications occurred in 14, 15, and 9 cases, respectively. There was significant difference in total incidence of postoperative complication among 3 groups (P<0.05). The incidences of postoperative overactive bladder, bladder spasms, urinary tract infection, and fistula in group C were significantly lower than those in groups A and B (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in incision infection, acute urinary retention, urinary extravasation, meatal stenosis, and urethral stricture among 3 groups (P>0.05). ConclusionOne-stage nonstented TIP is suitable for distal and mid-shaft hypospadias and could reduce postoperative pain and complications compared with the traditional postoperative indwell ing urethral catheter and indwell ing urethral stent.
Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of poly tetrahydrofurfuryl co-lactic acid(copolymer C4) as the biodegradable vitreous substitutes on rhegmatogenous retinal detachment.Methods Vitreoretinal surgery with copolymer C4 tamponades was performed on 32 pigmented rabbits (64eyes) with rhegmatogenous retinal detachment. The rate of reattached retina and the post operative cornplications were observed.Results Three months after the operation, reattached retina was found in 96. 4%, glaucoma in 5.5%, cataract in 10.9%, and copolymer emulsion in 10.2% of all the eyes.Conclusion copolymer C4 may withstand the retinal tear effectively for 3 months, and can be a valuable vitreous substitutes.

Objective To evaluate the clinical treatment methods of deep infection after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) and its effectiveness. Methods Between January 2004 and January 2010, 32 cases (32 knees) of deep infection after TKA were treated, including 13 males and 19 females with an average age of 64.6 years (range, 52-79 years). The time from primary TKA to infection was 3 weeks to 10 years. The preoperative knee society score (KSS) was 104.6 ± 9.1, and the visual analogue scale (VAS) score was 7.8 ± 1.4. Open debridement and continuous irrigation were perfomed in 3 cases of acute infection, arthroscopic debridement and irrigation in 3 cases of acute haematogenous infection; in 26 cases of chronic deep infection, 9 cases underwent open debridement, 4 cases underwent antibiotics impregnated bone cement spacer, 12 cases received two-stage revision, and 1 case underwent conservative treatment by intravenous antibiotics. Results All cases of acute infection failed to control deep infection; 1 case of acute haematogenous infection failed to treat; 7 cases of chronic infection undergoing debridement and 1 case of conservative treatment failed to treat; and all the failure cases were cured after symptomatic treatment. Thirty-two cases were followed up 2-8 years (mean, 4.6 years). At last follow-up, the KSS score and VAS score were 158.4 ± 8.3 and 4.1 ± 0.8, respectively, all showing significant differences when compared with preoperative scores (P lt; 0.05). Re-infection occurred in 3 patients who received two-stage revision during follow-up. Conclusion In patients with acute infection of methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus after TKA, open debridement and liner change have low success rate; arthroscopic debridement can be performed to control acute haematogenous infection; and two-stage revision is an effective method to control chronic infection and restore the knee function, but two-stage revision has a potential risk of re-infection.
Objective To discuss the criteria of recipient selection，surgical approach，and complications and its theray by using of pediatric donation after cardiac death liver graft in adult recipient. Methods The clinical data of one case of pediatric donation after cardiac death liver to adult recipient was analyzed retrospectively and the literatures were reviewed. Results A 6-year-old girl pronounced brain death due to drowning and on the basis of cardiopulmonary criteria donated the organ．The liver graft weight was 598 g and the warm ischemic time was 10 min. The liver donor was transplanted to a 64-year-old woman，the graft to recipient weight ratio was 1.09%，the graft volume/estimated standard liver volume was 61.8%．The classic orthotopic liver transplantation without bypass was underwent，the postoperative recovery was smooth after the liver transplantation．The CT scan showed that the liver graft volume was 1 003cm3 on day 14 after operation．The patient was discharged on 45 d after orthotopic liver transplantation and the liver function was normal when followed-up 3 months after the operation. Conclusions Pediatric donation after cardiac death liver graft can be successfully utilized to adult recipient．Recipient selection and surgical approach should be decided by conditions of both donor and graft．
ObjectiveTo analyze the effect and incidence rate of major postoperative complications of pericardial devascularization in treatment of portal hypertension. MethodsEnglish and Chinese literatures about pericardial deva-scularization in treatment of portal hypertension were searched through Medline, Elsevier, PubMed, CNKI, and WanFang database, and meta analysis was taken in the process by using R-2.15 software. ResultsIn total of 671 literatures were searched and 23 were selected finally according to inclusion criteria and exclusion criteria.The results of meta analysis showed that, the effect of pericardial devascularization in treatment of portal hypertension were as follows:the incidence rate of rebleeding was 21%(95% CI: 0.18-0.24), the incidence rate of hepatic encephalopathy was 4%(95% CI: 0.02-0.06), the incidence rate of ascites was 29%(95% CI: 0.14-0.47), mortality of operation was 3%(95% CI: 0.02-0.04), mortality was 23%(95% CI: 0.15-0.33). ConclusionsThere is a certain incidence rate of complications of pericardial devascularization, of which the most common complication is rebleeding.So, it is necessary to do further improvement and development of pericardial devascularization.
Objective To approach the clinical characters and therapeutic methods of retinal detachment(RD) after extracapsular catarat extraction(ECCE)with posterior chamber intraocular lens(PCIOL). Methods Sixty eight cases(68 eyes) of RD after ECCE with PCIOL were treated with sclerel buckling,microvitreo retinal surgery and intraocular gas,silicone oil injection and were reviewed. Results The retinas were totally reattached in 65 eyes(95.59%) which dropped to 94.12% in 6-60 months postoperatively.The resultant rate of visual acuity of the eyes with 0.1 or better was 79.41%,with 0.3 or better was 26.47%. Conclusion The main causes of RD after ECCE with PCIOL are similar to those of general RD,and most cases of RD after ECCE with PCIOL can be cured by surgical treatment.
