Objective To study diagnosis, treatment and rebuilding of scrotum gangrene. Methods From January 1992 to September 2004, 15 patients with scrotum gangrene were treated and their clinical data were analysed.Their ages ranged from 23 to80 years. The results of bacterial culture were positive for wound sample in 14 cases and for blood in 1 case. All the patients underwent surgical treatment including incision,aggressive debridement,drainage,irrigation and antibiotic therapy. Two patients accepted hyperbaric oxygen therapy. All the patients received scrotum rebuilding by transfer of skin flap, skin grafting and suturation and orchectomy was given in 2 elder patients. Results All the patients received healing by first intention after 21 to 34 days.There was no death. Aftera follow-up of 1 to 3 years, the appearance of scotum was satisfactory and no orchiatrophy occurred. Thirteen patients with testicles had normal sexual function. Conclusion After a definite diagnosis,early aggressive debridement,broad-spectrum antibiotics and sufficient local drainage should be used. If available,hyperbaric oxygen therapy may be used to promote healing of tissue wound. Scrotum should be rebuilt based on different conditions.
Objective To explore the method of surgical treatment and endoluminal repairs of infrarenal abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA)so as to improve the safety of surgical treatment. Methods The information of surgical treatment was analysed restrospectively in 195 cases of infrarenal AAA treated from January 1981 to December 2004. Of the patients, 155 were males, 40 were females with a mean age of 56.5 years. The diametersof the aneurysm were larger than 5 cm in 183 patients (93.8%) and 4 to 5 cm in12 patients (6.2%). Of the 175 patients who underwent selective operation, graft replacements were performed in 139 and endovascular aneurysmal repairs in 36. Twenty patients (10.3%) suffering from aneurysm rupture were given emergency operation. Results There were 6 deaths in the patients underdingselective operation(6/175, 4.3%) and in those undergoing emergengcy surgery (6/20, 30%) respectively within 30 days. The other patients were followed up from 1 month to 21 years ( 8.7 years on average), and there were 16 deaths (8.9%) during the follow-up. Nodeath was found in the endoluminal repaired group. Endoleak occurred in 8 patients, including 5 cases of type Ⅰand 3cases of type Ⅱ. After 6 months, CT scan showed that endoleak disappeared in 6 and rernained in 2. Late type Ⅱ endoleak occurred in 1 and endoleak disappearedafter endoluminal embolization. Conclusion With improvement of vascular surgical technique and development of endogafting, the safety of AAA both on surgicaland interventional means would be improved.
ObjectiveTo explore the feasibility of decompression without gastric tube after minimally invasive esophageal cancer surgery.MethodsSeventy-two patients who underwent minimally invasive esophageal cancer resection at the Department of Thoracic Surgery, The Second Affiliated Hospital of Harbin Medical University from 2016 to 2018 were selected as a trial group including 68 males and 4 females with an average age of 58.5±7.9 years, who did not use gastric tube for gastrointestinal decompression after surgery. Seventy patients who underwent the same operation from 2013 to 2015 were selected as the control group, including 68 males and 2 females, with an average age of 59.1±6.9 years, who were indwelled with gastric tube for decompression after surgery. We observed and compared the intraoperative and postoperative indicators and complications of the two groups.ResultsThere were no significant differences between the two groups in operation time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative level of serum albumin, postoperative nasal jejunal nutrition, whether to enter the ICU postoperatively, death within 30 days after surgery, anastomotic leakage, lung infection, vomiting, bloating or hoarseness (P>0.05). No gastroparesis occurred in either group. Compared with the control group, the recovery time of the bowel sounds and the first exhaust time after the indwelling in the trial group were significantly shorter, and the total hospitalization cost, the incidence of nausea, sore throat, cough, foreign body sensation and sputum difficulty were significantly lower (P<0.05).ConclusionIt is feasible to remove the gastric tube for gastrointestinal decompression after minimally invasive esophageal cancer surgery, which will not increase the incidence of postoperative complications, instead, accelerate the postoperative recovery of patients.
【摘要】 目的 观察运用涎腺镜对慢性下颌下腺炎诊断和治疗的临床效果。 方法 应用涎腺镜观察32例慢性下颌下腺炎患者导管,根据不同病因给予相应治疗。分别于手术前当天,手术后2、7 d,4周,6、12个月观察治疗效果。 结果 32例慢性下颌下腺炎患者中,28例存在导管结石。手术后2 d大部分患者胀痛症状明显缓解,之后1个月内呈逐渐缓慢缓解趋势,手术后6~12个月胀痛感略有回升表现。结论 运用涎腺镜治疗慢性下颌下腺炎是微创、有效的。【Abstract】 Objective To observe the clinical effect of chronic inflammation of submandibular gland treated by sialoendoscopy. Methods The conduit of 32 patients with chronic inflammtion of submandibular gland under sialoendoscopy, and to observe the curative effect after two, seven days, four weeks, six and 12 months. Results Of the all of 32 patients, 28 had stones in duck. Two days after surgery, the most patients has bursting pain palliation, and then relieved gradually; from six to 12 months after surgery, bursting pain rebounded slightly. Conclusions Use of sialoendoscopy on chronic inflammtion of submandibular gland is minimally invasive and effective treatment.
Objective To observe the efficacy of glucocorticoid and Mecobalamin in the treatment of optic neuritis. Methods Seventy-four patients (118 eyes) with optic neuritis were enrolled in this study. There were 38 patients (55 eyes) with optic nerve papillitis, 36 patients (63 eyes) with retrobulbar neuritis. The patients were divided into treatment and control group, 37 patients (59 eyes) in each group. The treatment group received semiretrobulbar injection of 500 μg Mecobalamin per day, 10 times for one course; after two to three courses changed oral 500 μg Mecobalamin, three times per day. Systemic intravenous injection of 15 dexamethasone mg per day for one week, then prednisolone 30 mg per day orally, the dosage was reduced every five days for 5 mg; oral administration of vitamin B1, 10 mg three times per day, use of energy mixture, vasodilators. Control group underwent the same therapy as the treatment group without Mecobalamin. The efficacy differences between two groups were comparatively analyzed. Results Among 59 eyes in the treatment group, 42 eyes (71.19%) were markedly effective, 15 eyes (25.42%) were valid and two eyes (3.39%) were invalid. The total effective rate was 96.61%. Among 59 eyes in the control group, 30 eyes (50.85%) were markedly effective, 26 eyes (44.07%) were valid and three eyes (5.08%) were invalid. The total effective rate was 94.92%. The difference of total effective rate between two groups was not statistically significant (χ2=1.10, P>0.05); but there was a difference in markedly effective rate between two groups (χ2=5.65, P<0.05). Conclusion Mecobalamin combined with glucocorticoids was effective in the treatment of optic neuritis.
