ObjectiveTo investigate clinical efficacy and advantages and disadvantages of primary closure with two endoscopes (1aparoscope+choledochoscope) or three endoscopes (laparoscope+choledochoscope+duodenoscope) through the cystic duct for treatment of gallbladder stone with secondary common bile duct (CBD) stones.MethodsThe clinical data of 83 patients with gallbladder stones with secondary CBD stones treated by two or three endoscopes combined with CBD exploration and lithotomy and primary closure through cystic duct from January 2017 to December 2018 in the Chengdu Second People’s Hospital were collected retrospectively. Among them, 41 patients were treated by two endoscopes mode (two endoscopes group), 42 cases were treated by three endoscopes mode (three endoscopes group).ResultsThere were no significant differences in the general conditions such as the gender, age, preoperative diameter of CBD, chronic diseases, etc. between the two and three endoscopes group (P>0.05). All 83 cases underwent the operations successfully and recovered well. The success rate of operation, stone clearance rate, drainage volume of abdominal drainage tube on day 1 after the operation, time of abdominal drainage tube removal after the operation, and hospitalization time had no significant differences between these two groups (P>0.05). The time of operation, intraoperative bleeding volume, and the postoperative pancreatitis rate in the three endoscopes group were significantly more (or higher) than those in the two endoscopes group (P<0.05), but the condition of liver function recovered after the operation was better than that in the two endoscopes group (P<0.05).ConclusionsWith the strict control of the operation indications, it is safe and feasible to use two or three endoscopes through the cystic duct pathway and primary closure of CBD for treatment of gallbladder stone with secondary CBD stones. However, the choice of operative methods of two or three endoscopes should be based on the general situation of the patients before and during the operation.
From the March of 1993 to the May of 1994, we had performed laparoscopic cholecystectomy (LC) for 200 patients of the age ranged 19-77 years. In these cases, 12 had previous abdominal surgery; 3 cases had hepatic cysts; 11 cases had stones in the neck of gall bladders. We had successfully performed LC for 190 cases (95%). But we also had some unsuccesful experiences, including accidental injury to the stomach or duodenum, and bleeding from cystic arteris of the gallbladder. Operation (LC) was abandoned in one patient because of severe cardiac arrhyshmia developed during operation, and billiary tract injury was found postoperatively in three patients with no postoperative death. The operative indications and technical problems of LC are discussed in detail and measures in avoiding injury to billiary or GI tract from LC are introduced.
Objective To investigate the rule of the morphological changes of the detrusor muscle and its neuromuscular junction after the medullary cone injury in rats. Methods Forty-eight SDadult rats were divided into 6 groups randomly, each of which was 8. There werenormal control group(group A), 4 weeks group(group B), 6 weeks group(group C), 8 weeks group(group D), 10 weeks group(group E) and 12 weeks group(group F) after the medullary cone injury respectively. The medullary cone injury was completed in the level of L4,5 with a sharp and transsectional way. The HE dyeing of the detrusor muscle was performed firstly to observe the changes of the section areas of muscle fibers. And the electron microscopic samples of the detrusor muscle were made to investigate the rules of the ultrastructructral changes in the detrusor muscle and its neuromuscular junction. Finally, the Masson trichromatic dyeing of the detrusor muscles was performed to calculate the percentages of the smooth muscle and the connective tissue.Results The HE dyeing of the detrusor muscle indicated the section areas of muscle fibers in groups E, F was significantly less than that in group A (P＜0.05). The gradually aggravated ultrastructructral changes of detrusor cells in groups B-F were observed in atonic bladders，such as various shape and size，malalignment, wide separation between musclecells, abundant collagen fibrils and irregular dense structures between individual cells, obvious rough endoplasmic reticulum widen and mitochondrial edema were noted．And the ultrastructructral changes of the neuromuscular junctions manifested that the similar structures in group A and the reduction of the mitochondria and synaptic vesicles was seen in groups B, C and D, the conspicuous degenerative neuromuscular junction and the obvious reduction of the synaptic vesiclesand the mitochondria was observed in group E,and the deteriorative degenerativeneuromuscular junction and the obvious reduction or disappearance of the synaptic vesicles and the mitochondria even to the degenerative corpuscle was noted in group F. The Masson trichromatic dyeing in the detrusor muscles indicated that there were significant differences in the percentage of the connective tissue in the detrusor muscles between groups E,F and group A, and between group E and group F respectively (P＜0.05). Conclusion The irreversible changes of the detrusor muscle and its neuromuscular junction canbe seen in the 10th week after medullary cone injury in rat. And the nerverepairing procedures should be performed before this.
Objective To investigate the biocompatibility of acellular urinary bladder submucosa (AUBS). Methods The acellular collagen matrix of human urinary bladder submucosa was developed using freeze-thawed enzymatic treatment and freeze-drying technique. Human oral keratinocytes were cultured and seeded on AUBS at a density of 2×106/ml in vitro.The proliferation of the cells were observed. Pockets were created in the abdominal muscle wall of 18 SD rats. AUBS in size 1 cm×1 cm was implanted into the pocket. The grafts were observed by light microscope 3, 6, 10, 14, 21 and 28 days after operation. Results AUBSmainly consisted of collagen fibers with a three-dimensional network structure. After the oral keratinocytes were seeded, continous oral epithelium layer was formed on the surface of AUBS after 10 days in vitro. Histological observation of the grafted AUBS showed progressive cell infiltration at 6 days. New capillaries formed at 14 days. The collagen fibers arranged regularly at 28 days after implantation. Conclusion Freeze-dried AUBS may be used as a suitable scaffold for tissue regeneration, which can induce cell proliferation both in vivo and in vitro and has good biocompatibilty.
Objective To summarize the development of gallbladder carcinoma related resistance genes and targeted therapy. Methods Domestic and international publications online involving resistance genes and targeted therapy of gallbladder carcinoma in recent years were collected and reviewed. Results Recent studies had shown that chemotherapy drug resistance of gallbladder carcinoma mainly involved lysosome protein transmembrane β4 （LAPTM4B） gene， NF-E2-related factor 2 （Nrf2） gene， and cancer stem cells （CSCs）. While the latest gene targets of treatment for gallbladder carcinoma mainly involved LAPTM4B， Nemo-like kinase （NLK）， tissue factor way inhibitor-2 （TFPI-2）， vascular endothelial growth factor-D （VEGF-D）， epidermal growth factor receptor （EGFR）， and melanoma differentiation-associated gene 7/interleukin 24 （mda-7/IL-24） gene. Conclusion The research involving resistance genes and targeted therapy of gallbladder carcinoma has make a certain progress， which broaden the concept of traditional treatment of gallbladder carcinoma.
【Abstract】Objective To investigate the features of gallbladder carcinoma in two-phase spiral CT, and to analysis the values of two-phase spiral CT for the differential diagnosis between gallbladder carcinoma and chronic cholecystitis. Methods The two-phase spiral CT manifestations of 30 cases of gallbladder carcinoma, proved by surgery and pathology, and 30 cases of chronic cholecystitis were analyzed. Results According to the CT findings, the gallbladder carcinoma was categorized into 3 types: intraluminal mass of gallbladder in 6 out of 30 (20.0%）， thickening of the gallbladder wall in 11 (33.7%), and mass replacing the normal gallbladder in 13(43.4%). The most common enhancement patterns of the wall in gallbladder carcinoma were hyperattenuation during the arterial phase, while isoattenuation with the adjacent hepatic parenchyma during the venous phase; or hyperattenuation during both phases. The most common enhancement pattern of the wall in chronic cholecystitis was isoattenuation during both phases, with clear hypoattenuation linear shadow in the gallbladder fossa. Other ancillary features of gallbladder carcinomas included: infiltration of the adjacent parenchyma, local lymphadenopathy and intrahepatic metastasis. Conclusion Two-phase spiral CT scan can identify the features of the gallbladder carcinoma and is helpful for the differential diagnosis of these two different disease entities.
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 investigate the possibility of laparoscopic cholecystectomy （LC） on porcelain gallbladder. Methods Twenty-four cases of porcelain gallbladder， who were operated in China Medical University， including 13 LC cases， from 2006 to 2008 were retrospectively reviewed. Results Of 24 porcelain gallbladder cases (0.48%) in 4964 cholecystectomy patients， calcification of gallbladder in 87.50%(21/24) patients was diagnosed by ultrasonography. Of 13 patients who were cured by LC, one suffered from postoperative leak bile, no metastasis were found by following up 12 or 14 months in two gallbladder carcinoma cases. Conclusion There’s specificity of ultrasonographic image in porcelain gallbladder, in which LC is safe to be performed and routine frozen pathology during operation is necessary.
【Abstract】ObjectiveTo explore the relationship between anomalous pancreaticobiliary ductal junction(APBDJ) and gallbladder carcinoma. MethodsThe current related literatures were reviewed.ResultsAPBDJ was associated with gallbladder carcinoma development. A proposed mechanism was free reflux of pancreatic juice into the gallbladder and molecular alterations of gallbladder epithelial cells.ConclusionAPBDJ is a high risk factor for gallbladder carcinoma. Prophylactic cholecystectomy is recommended for patients with APBDJ.
Objective To study the expression of p16 and Rb gene in primary gallbladder carcinoma (PGC). MethodsFiftysix cases of PGC and 26 of gallbladder benign lesions were observed by immunohistochemistry (SP). ResultsThe positive rates of p16 and Rb protein in PGC were 46.3% and 71.4% respectively. No association of Rb expression with histological grade, histological type, invasion, metastasis and prognosis was found. There were close correlation between p16 expression and invasion, metastasis as well as prognosis. The inverse correlation of p16 and Rb gene expression in PGC was confirmed. Conclusion The loss of p16 or Rb gene protein is an important molecular event in PGC,and closely related to the block in the negative regulatory pathway of all cell cycle. The detection of p16 protein may be useful in evaluating biological characteristics and prognosis in PGC.
