To study the effect of intraperitoneal hyperthermic double distiled water and cis-diamminedichloro-platinum(DDP) perfusion to the peritoneal cancerous ascites,intraperitoneal injection of H22 cancer cells (2×107 tumor cell,each mouse) were performed in LACA mice. Five days after cancer cells injection, intraperitoneal perfusion of simple hypertherrnic (43℃) double distiled water(group Ⅰ) isotonic fluid (group Ⅱ ). DDP (group Ⅲ ), and hypertherrnic double distiles water perfusion combined with DDP (guoup Ⅳ ) were performed .The results showed that cancer cells in the peritoneal cavity of LACA mice were seriously damaged, the production of ascites was markedly inhibited and the survival days of LACA mice were prolonged in all groups . .The intraperitoneal hyperthermic double distilled water perfusion with DDP group showed more effective result as compared with the other groups,Only 1 peritoneal implanted dissemination was found after treatment in this group,Basing on the experimental from September 1991 through September 1993,intraperitoneal hyperthermic double distiled water perfusion with DDP was used to treat 32 advanced gastric cancer patients after radical gastrectomy with satisfactory results.
ObjectiveTo investigate healing of rat colonic anastomoses after early postoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy (EPIC).MethodsFortyfive Wistar rats with colonic anastomoses were divided randomly into 3 groups (15 rats each). From postoperative 1 day to 5 day, rats were injected with normal saline (NS) to the peritoneal cavity with 20 ml/(kg·d) for the NS group; 5Fu with 20 mg/(kg·d) for the 5Fu group; 5Fu with 20 mg/(kg·d) and leucovorin with 10 mg/(kg·d) for the 5Fu+LV group. On the 7th postoperative day, rats were killed and the anastomoses were evaluated whether anastomotic complications (leakage or dehiscence) occurred, the anastomotic bursting pressure (ABP) and hydroxypoline content (HPC) were measured. ResultsIn the NS group, 1 rat had incision dehiscence, another one had anastomostic leakage with but no death. In the 5Fu+LV group, 2 rats showed anastomotic leakage and 1 death. On the 7th postoperative day, the ABP in NS, 5Fu and 5Fu+LV groups were (169.1±32.6) mm Hg, (116.8±25.5) mm Hg and (154.9±31.2) mm Hg respectively; the HPC was (1.54±0.28) μg/mg, (0.9±0.33) μg/mg and (1.24±0.29) μg/mg respectively. Both the ABP and HPC, in the NS group were much significantly higher than in 5Fu group (P＜0.01). Both the ABP and HPC in the 5Fu+LV group were significantly higher than which in the 5Fu group (P＜0.05).ConclusionEPIC with 5Fu significantly impairs healing of the colonic anastomosis. 5Fu combined with LV for EPIC might reduce this inhibition to the process of the anastomotic healing.
ObjectiveAdopting poly-L-lactic/glycolic acid (PLGA) and polyethylene glycol (PEG) as the material to fabricate PLGA/PEG electrospun polymer membrane by electrospinning technology. And to study its preventive effect on postoperative intraperitoneal adhesion of rat.MethodsPLGA and PEG were mixed at the ratio of 19∶1(M/M), then dissolved in organic solvent. The PLGA/PEG electrospun polymer membrane was prepared by electrospinning technology, and then the gross observation and scanning electron microscope observation were taken. Fifty-four Sprague Dawley rats (weighing, 180-200 g), were randomly divided into 3 groups. The rats in control group (n=6) were left intact. The rats in model group (n=24) and PLGA/PEG group (n=24) were treated with the method of mechanical injury of the cecal serosa in order to establish the intraperitoneal adhesion models; then the PLGA/PEG electrospun polymer membrane was used to cover the wound in PLGA/PEG group, but was not in the model group. The intraperitoneal adhesion in PLGA/PEG group and model group were observed at 3 days, 1 week, 2 weeks, and 8 weeks after operation, and the adhesion degree was assessed according to the self-generated standard. The degradation of PLGA/PEG electrospun polymer membrane was also observed in PLGA/PEG group. At each time point, the rats were harvested for histological observation. All the above indexes were compared with the control group.ResultsUsing the electrospinning technology, PLGA/PEG electrospun polymer membrane was prepared successfully. PLGA/PEG electrospun polymer membrane was white and opaque, with soft texture. Scanning electron microscopy observation showed that PLGA/PEG electrospun polymer membrane was mainly composed of disorderly staggered fibers, with microporous structure. All rats survived to the end of the experiment. Gross observation showed that PLGA/PEG electrospun polymer membrane gradually degraded after implantation in vivo, and the adhesion degree in PLGA/PEG group was significantly lower than that in model group (P<0.05), but it had not yet reached to the level of the control group (P<0.05). Histological observation showed that the proliferation of cecal fibrous connective tissue was slower in PLGA/PEG group than in model group, and adhesion severity significantly decreased, only with a small amount of inflammatory cell infiltration. Nevertheless, it was not up to the level of the control group.ConclusionPLGA/PEG electrospun polymer membrane can effectively prevent postoperative intraperitoneal adhesion of rat, and has good biodegradability.
Objective To summarize the therapeutic experiences of abdominal wall bulge repair with compound patch intraperitoneal placement. Methods From October 2005 to October 2008, intraperitoneal onlay mesh with compound patch applied in 7 patients with abdominal wall bulge, whose clinical data were analyzed retrospectively. Results All the procedures were performed successfully, including 5 open operation and 2 laparoscopic repair. The mean operation time was 85 min (ranged 68 to 130 min). After operation, 1 seroma formation and 1 hemorrhage in the thoracic cavity developed and were cured with the conservative therapy. Mean postoperative hospital stay was 9.5 d (ranged 8 to 16 d). There was no recurrence, infection, or prolonged pain during 1－4 years follow-up. Conclusion Abdominal wall bulge is caused by the weakness of abdominal wall muscle, and the intraperitoneal onlay mesh repair with compound patch is an appropriate therapy.
To evaluate the effect of intraperitoneal hyperthermo-chemotherapy (IPHC) on immunologic function of patients with gastrointestinal malignant tumor (GMT). The authors determined the serum T-lymphocyte subsets (T-LS) and interleukin-2 receptor (sIL-2R) of 32 patients with GMT after IPHC, and compared the two indexes with 20 healthy control group. Results: Before IPHC the serum CD＋3, CD＋4, CD＋8 and CD＋4/CD＋8 were higher and sIL-2R were lower than control group, after IPHC, CD＋3, CD＋4, CD＋8 and CD＋4/CD＋8 increased obviously (Ｐ＜0.01) and the serum sIL-2R decreased significantly (Ｐ＜0.01). Conclusion: The IPHC can improve the patients immunologic function.
Objective To explore the feasibility, safety, efficacy and mechanism of intraoperative regional chemotherapy of advanced gastric cancer.Methods The related literatures were reviewed and analyzed. Results Compared with systemic chemotherapy, intraoperative regional chemotherapy of advanced gastric cancer could increase blood drug concentration of cancerous tissue, reduce the systemic toxic side effects, increase survival rate and improve the quality of life. Conclusion Intraoperative regional chemotherapy, as an adjuvant treatment of advanced gastric cancer, has been gradually applied to clinic because of the definite curative effect, which is worth popularizing. However, it needs systemic researches and accumulation of cases.
Objective To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of postoperative intraperitoneal hyperthermic perfusion chemotherapy (IHPC) for advanced gastric cancer, so as to provide references for clinical practice and study. Methods The following databases including The Cochrane Library, PubMed, EMbase, CBM, CNKI, VIP and WanFang were searched on computer, and other searches were also performed to collect all relevant randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on postoperative IHPC versus intravenous chemotherapy alone (IC) for advanced gastric cancer. The quality of the included studies was assessed according to Cochrane Handbook 5.1 for Systematic Review, and Meta-analysis was conducted by using RevMan 5.1 software. Results A total of 18 RCTs involving 2299 patients were included. The results of meta-analyses showed that: a) Efficacy evaluation: There were significant differences between the IHPC group and the IC group in 1-, 2-, 3-, and 5-year survival rate, 3- and 5-year recurrence rate, and 3- and 5-year distant metastasis rate; the OR value and 95%CI were 1.88 (1.49, 2.39), 2.45 (1.64, 3.67), 2.29 (1.92, 2.73), 2.17 (1.70, 2.76), 0.39 (0.29, 0.52), 0.54 (0.40, 0.72), 0.55 (0.38, 0.78), 0.58 (0.42, 0.81), respectively; b) Safety evaluation: There were significant differences between the IHPC group and the IC group in the incidence of abdominal pain, abdominal distension, nausea and vomiting; the OR value and 95%CI were 2.20 (1.58, 3.07), 7.00 (2.67, 18.36), 0.65 (0.45, 0.95), respectively. But there were no significant differences between the IHPC group and the IC group in the incidence of alopecia, ileus, bone marrow inhibition, and hepatic lesion. Conclusion Compared with IC, postoperative IHPC+IC can improve survival rate and reduce the recurrence and distant metastasis rate; additionally, it is safe and feasible, so it is recommended that the detailed condition of patients should be taken into consideration when the postoperative IHPC+IC therapy is applied to clinic.
Objective To compare three approaches of lipopolysaccharides ( LPS) administration for inducing acute lung injury ( ALI) in mice. Methods LPS ( 5 mg/kg) was intratracheally aerosol administered ( ITA group) , intratracheally instilled ( ITI group) , or intraperitoneally injected ( IPI group) to induce ALI in BLAB/ c mice. Evans Blue instead of LPS was intratracheally administered to observe the liquid distribution in the lungs. Two hours after LPS administration, the mice were sacrificed and the lungs were removed to determine wet-to-dry lung weight ratio ( W/D) , and the histological changes were evaluated by HE staining. Phosphorylation level of IκB-αand NF-κB p65 in lung tissue were investigated by Western blot. Transcription intensity of TNF-α and IL-1β mRNA in lung tissue were detected by real-time quantitative PCR. Results Evans Blue distributed more uniformly in the ITA group than the ITI group. The lung W/D ratio and histological changes score in three LPS administration groups were all significantly higher than the normal control group ( P lt;0. 01) , with the ITA group being the highest. The phosphorylation levels of IκB-αand NF-κB p65 were significantly higher in the ITA group than the ITI group ( P lt;0. 05) , and were significantly higher in the ITI group than the IPI group ( P lt; 0. 05) . Transcription intensity of TNF-αand IL-1βmRNA was significantly higher in the ITA group than the ITI group ( P lt;0. 05) , and were significantly higher in the ITI group than the IPI group ( P lt;0. 05) . Conclusion Being non-invasive and convenient,intratracheal LPS aerosol inhalation is an optimal method to induce ALI in mice because it induces more extensive and uniformly distributed injuries in lung.
Objective To study the value of intraperitoneal chemotherapy in the treatment of gastrointestinal malignancies. Methods The current literature on intraperitoneal chemotherapy was reviewed. Results Following intraperitoneal injection, the concentration of drugs in the peritoneum and in the portal vein was high, lasting and sustained. Early postoperative chemotherapy showed better results. Port-A-Cath provides a safe and suitable drug delivery system. Complications were mild. Conclusion Intraperitoneal chemotherapy presents significant pharmacokinetic and clinical potentials in the treatment of gastrointestinal malignancies, as well as in the prevention and treatment of postoperative metastasis.
Pre-and postoperative perfusion of thermochemotherapy was used in 25 cases of advanced malignant tumors of digestive tract.There were on significant changes in hepatic and renal functions after perfusions.The erythrocyte,leukocyte and platelet counts reduced in the second and third week after the beginningof perfusion,but rose up in the 4th week.A 2-year follow-up revealed that 23 patients were still alive without recurrence or metastases except 2cases died in the 6th and the 9th month after treatment.We claim that intraperitoneal thermochemotherapy is a simple and safe method. A prospective study is still necessaryin deciding the dose and course.
