  • SURGICAL CORRECTION OF CONCEALED PENIS

    Objective To discuss the severity grading and procedure design of concealed penis. Methods Between June 2004 and April 2008, 196 cases of concealed penis were surgically corrected. The age ranged from 1 year and 4 months to 44 years, with a median of 9 years. They presented with inconspicuous penis and abnormal cavernosa development. Four cases compl icated by glanular hypospadias and 3 cases by penile epispadias. They were classified as mild in 49 cases, moderate in 109, and severe in 38 according to severity. Surgical procedures were selected based on varied anatomical changes in different categories. Results All the patients got satisfactory appearance immediately after surgery. No voiding problem, wound infection, and skin necrosis were found. With 6 months to 48 months (mean 16 months) follow-up, most patients achieved good results and the penile appearance resembled that after circumcision. Mild penile retraction was noted in 1 moderate case and 1 severe case; and recurrence occurred in another one, the result was satisfactory after reoperation. Conclusion Various surgical procedures can be adopted for concealed penis. The key point is to design procedures according to the anatomical abnormalities.

    ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion on the prognosis of patients with non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).MethodsThe databases including PubMed, The Cochrane Library, EMbase, CNKI, Wanfang Data, VIP and CBM were searched for literature about the effects of perioperative allogeneic blood transfusion on the prognosis of patients with NSCLC from the inception to May 2020. Two authors independently screened the literature, extracted and cross-checked data, and negotiated to resolve differences in opinions. Review Manager V5.3 (Cochrane Collaboration, Oxford, UK) software was used for data analysis.ResultsA total of 15 articles were included, including 5 897 patients. There were 1 649 patients in the trial group and 4 248 patients in the control group. The results of meta-analysis showed that the overall survival of the control group was significantly higher than that of the trial group (OR=0.58, 95%CI 0.47-0.70, P<0.000 01). The disease-free survival of the control group was significantly higher than that of the trial group (OR=0.43, 95%CI 0.36-0.52, P<0.000 01). The recurrence rate of the control group was significantly lower than that of the trial group (OR=1.85, 95%CI 1.34-2.55, P=0.000 2).ConclusionPerioperative allogeneic blood transfusion has adverse effects on the recurrence and survival of patients with NSCLC.

    Abstract:  Objective To observe the combined protective effects of U50 488H and hypothermia preservation on isolated rabbit hearts preconditioned.  Methods Forty rabbits were randomly divided into five groups, 8 rabbits in each group. The perfusion model of isolated rabbit hearts was established by the Langendorff device. In the control group: the isolated rabbit hearts were preserved with the University of Wissconsin solution (UW ) for six hours; groupI : the isolated rabbit hearts were preconditioned with St. ThomasII cardioplegic solution containing U50 488H (1. 6mmo l/L ) and then preserved with hypothermic preservation for four hours; groupII ; the precondition was the same as group II , hypothermic preservat ion fo r six hours; group III : the precondit ion was the same as group I , hypothermic preservation for eight hours; group IV : the precondit on was the same as group I , hypothermic preservation for ten hours. The cardiac function, myocardial sarcoplasmic reticulum calcium ion adenosine triphosphatase (SRCa2+ -ATPase) act ivity and calcium ion concentrations in mitochondria were determined at thirty minutes after reperfusion.  Results As the hypothermic preservation time increased from four to ten hours, the recovery rate of each index of cardiac function, coronary artery flow (Cf) and SRCa2+ -ATPase activity also decreased, but the calcium ion concentrations in the mitochondria increased. Cardiac function index recovery rates in group I and group II w ere higher than those in group III and groupIV respectively (P lt; 0. 05, 0. 01) ,meanwhile recovery rates of cardiac function index in group III were higher than that in group IV (P lt; 0. 05). Recovery rate of Cf in groupII ( 84. 56%±10. 38%)were higher than those in group III (79. 45%±9. 67% ) and group IV (68. 31%±6. 84% , P lt;0.01) , meanwhile the recovery rate of Cf in group III was higher than that in group IV (P lt; 0. 05). SRCa2+ -A Tpase activity in group II (4. 43±0. 41μmo l/m g?h)were higher than those in control group (3. 04±0. 22Lmo l/mg?h ) , group III (3. 26±0. 29Lmo l/m g?h) and group IV (2. 57±0. 63Lmo l/m g?h, P lt; 0. 05) , SRCa2+ -ATPase activity in group III was higher than that in group IV (P lt; 0. 01). The calcium ion concentrations in mitochondria in group II (38176±4. 30μmo l/g ?dw ) and in the control group (40. 23±3. 75μmol/g ?dw )were less than those in group III (43125±5116μmol/g?dw ) and groupIV (45. 78±3. 26μmol/g?dw , P lt; 0. 05, 0. 01) respect ively. Conclusion The hypothermic preservation time for isolated dono r’s hearts p re-treated with St. Thomas II cardioplegic solution containing U 50 488H should the kep tunder 8h. The myocardial protection effects of both UW solution and U50 488H- containing St. Thomas II cardioplegic solution on isolated dono r’s hearts appear to be the same at 6 hours.

  • Application of indocyanine green-based fluorescent angiography in autologous tissue breast reconstruction

    ObjectiveTo investigate the effect of indocyanine green (ICG)-based fluorescent angiography in autologous tissue breast reconstruction.MethodsBetween June 2016 and June 2017, 14 female patients were treated with the autologous tissue breast reconstruction. The age ranged from 27 to 64 years with the median age of 46.5 years. There were 11 patients of one-stage reconstruction, including 9 with invasive ductal carcinoma of breast, 1 with recurrence tumor on chest wall, and 1 with angiosatcoma in the breast. The disease duration ranged from 9 days to 48 months (mean, 6.8 months). There were 3 patients of second-stage breast reconstruction, who underwent mastectomy 3-4 years ago. During operation, the first ICG-based fluorescent angiography was done before cutting off the flap pedicle. According to the results, 13 patients were adjusted the strategy of operation or cut part of flap, only 1 patient kept the original design. Then, the infusion of flaps were confirmed by the second ICG-based fluorescent angiography after transplanted to the recipient site. The area of flap ranged from 24 cm×11 cm to 36 cm×15 cm. All incisions of recipient site were closed by primary suture.ResultsThe fat liquefaction of incision occurred in 1 patient with type 2 diabetes, and the incision healed after debridement operation. The other flaps survived with no flap perfusion related complication. Both donor sites and recipient sites healed by first intention. All patients were followed up 1-14 months (mean, 4 months) with satisfied result of reconstruction. There was no tumor recurrence.ConclusionICG-based fluorescent angiography can reveal the perfusion of the flap in operation instantly and accurately. It should be very helpful to adjusting the strategy in reconstructive operation, especially in the large tissue demanded kinds such as breast reconstruction.

  • Prevention and treatment of lymphatic leak following transoral endoscopic thyroid cancer lateral neck lymph node dissection: a report of 47 cases

    ObjectiveTo summarize the prevention and treatment strategies and their effects on lymphatic leakage following transoral endoscopic thyroid cancer lateral neck lymph node dissection. MethodsA retrospective review was conducted, we collected clinical data from 47 patients with papillary thyroid carcinoma who underwent transoral endoscopic thyroidectomy and lateral neck lymph node dissection at our hospital from January 2021 to May 2023. A stepwise sequential treatment plan was adopted for patients with postoperative lymphatic leakage: low-fat, low-protein diet, continuous strong negative pressure suction, subcutaneous injection of Group A streptococcus in the surgical cavity, and ligation of the thoracic duct or lymphatic vessels through a small incision. The effectiveness of the sequential treatment plan was summarized. ResultsOut of the 47 patients, lymphatic leakage occurred in 5 cases postoperatively. Patient No.1 was cured of lymphatic leakage after sequential treatments including pectoralis major muscle flap occlusion of the jugular venous angle, low-fat, low-protein diet, continuous strong negative pressure suction postoperatively, subcutaneous injection of Group A streptococcus in the surgical cavity, and finally ligation of the thoracic duct or lymphatic vessels through a small incision. Patient No.20 was conservatively cured of lymphatic leakage with an initial surgical procedure involving pectoralis major muscle flap occlusion of the jugular venous angle, low-fat, low-protein diet, continuous strong negative pressure suction postoperatively, and subcutaneous injection of Group A streptococcus in the surgical cavity. Patient No.28 recovered after only pectoralis major muscle flap occlusion of the jugular venous angle, low-fat, low-protein diet and continuous strong negative pressure suction postoperatively. Treatment process of patient No.30 was the same as Patient No.1, Patient No.36 was the same as Patient No.20. Through the stepwise sequential treatment measures, all 5 patients successfully recovered from lymphatic leakage; the postoperative hospital stay ranged from 3 to 17 days, with an average of 8.6 days. ConclusionsThe stepwise sequential treatment plan used in this study can effectively prevent and treat lymphatic leakage after transoral endoscopic thyroid cancer lateral neck lymph node dissection. Given the small sample size of this study, we believe that it is necessary to conduct long-term studies to confirm the durability and stability of these measures.

  • Clinical application of pedicled chimeric thoracoacromial artery perforator flap for circular hypopharyngeal reconstruction

    Objective To explore the effectiveness of pedicled chimeric thoracoacromial artery perforator (TAAP) flap as a reconstructive option for circular hypopharyngeal defects. Methods Between January 2013 and December 2014, the pedicled chimeric TAAP flap was used to repair oncologic circular hypopharyngeal defects in 8 patients, included 6 males and 2 females, with an average age of 57 years (range, 45-80 years). All patients were treated in other hospitals before and recurrence was noted. The duration between latest treatment and recurrence ranged from 3 to 28 months (mean, 16.5 months). According to Union for International Cancer Control (UICC) TNM staged, 3 cases were T2N1M0, 2 cases were T3N1M0, 1 case was T3N2M0, 2 cases were T4N1M0. After laryngectomy, the size of circular hypopharyngeal defect ranged from 9.0 cm×8.5 cm to 12.0 cm×10.5 cm. The size of TAAP flap ranged from 7.0 cm×4.0 cm to 9.5 cm×6.0 cm.The size of pectoralis major flap ranged from 9.0 cm×5.0 cm to 14.5 cm×6.0 cm.The donor sites were closed directly in all cases. Results Postoperatively all flaps survived smoothly, and all defects healed by first intention. No early complication was noted. The mean hospital stay period ranged from 12 to 22 days (mean, 14.5 days). All patients were followed up 12-45 months (mean, 18.7 months). Patients possessed good appearance of surgical sites. No recurrence, fistulas, stenosis/strictures, dehiscence, or swelling occurred. Only linear scars were left on the donor sites, and the pectoralis major muscle function was completely preserved in all patients. Conclusion Patients with high comorbidities may not be suitable candidates for free flap reconstruction, especially when the recipient vessels are affected from disease or radiotherapy. Pedicled chimeric TAAP flap is a good choice for the reconstruction of hypopharyngeal defects in such conditions.

  • Multivariable analysis for flap-related complications in autologous breast reconstruction and economic analysis of intraoperative indocyanine green angiography

    ObjectiveTo investigate the influencing factors of flap-related complications and the economic benefits of intraoperative indocyanine green (ICG) angiography in the patients undergoing autologous breast reconstruction.MethodsBetween July 2013 and June 2018, the clinical data of 150 patients (152 breasts) who met the selection criteria after autologous breast reconstruction were analyzed retrospectively. Ten factors including age, body mass index, preoperative neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NC), chest radiation history, diabetes, abdominal operation history, chest wall reconstruction, reconstruction timing, flap type, intraoperative ICG angiography were analyzed by univariate analysis. Significant variables found in univariate analysis were used to perform backward multivariate logistic regression of flap related complications and local necrosis. According to the above multi factor analysis results, the patients were divided into 4 groups: ICG+NC group (group A), ICG+non-NC group (group B), non-ICG+NC group (group C), non-ICG+non-NC group (group D). The average extra costs of surgical treatment (including ICG imaging cost+cost of handling flap related complications) of each group was calculated.ResultsAll the 152 flaps survived. There were 33 flap-related complications, including 22 regional necrosis, 9 regional infection, 5 hematoma, 5 simple fat liquefaction, and 2 anasto-motic thrombosis. Univariate analysis showed that preoperative NC, flap type, and intraoperative ICG angiography had significant influence on the incidence of flap-related complications (P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that preoperative NC and non-ICG angiography were the risk factors of flap-related complications (P<0.05), and also the risk factors of regional flap necrosis (P<0.05). For patients who had NC, intraoperative ICG angiography could greatly save the average extra costs. The average extra costs in group A was 1 378 yuan less than that in group C. For the patients without NC, intraoperative ICG angiography would increase the average extra costs, which was 747 yuan in group B more than that in group D.ConclusionIn autologous breast reconstruction, ICG angiography can reduce the incidence of flap-related complications, especially the incidence of regional flap necrosis, while NC is the opposite. For patients without NC, ICG angiography is not cost-effective but still can be used if conditions permit. However, for those with NC, ICG angiography is cost-effective and recommended.

  • Muscle-sparing rectus abdominis myocutaneous flap vascularized with intercostal artery perforator and inferior epigastric artery perforator for breast reconstruction

    ObjectiveTo explore the surgical technique, effectiveness, and safety of muscle-sparing rectus abdominis myocutaneous flap vascularized with intercostal artery perforator and inferior epigastric artery perforator for breast reconstruction.MethodsBetween December 2016 and February 2019, 6 cases of early breast cancer received modified radical surgery, lower abdominal flap was applied for one- or two-staged breast reconstruction. The average age of the patients was 34.6 years (range, 29-56 years). The disease duration ranged from 2 to 16 months, with an average of 9.5 months. The tumor was located in the upper outer quadrant in 4 cases and the lower outer quadrant in 2 cases. Pathological examination showed that they were all invasive ductal carcinoma. Four cases of breast cancer were in stage Ⅰ and 2 cases was in stage Ⅱ. During operation, the inferior epigastric artery perforators were found to be close to the upper edge of the flap and/or near the umbilical cord in 4 cases, the inferior epigastric artery perforator vessels were relatively small (<0.3 mm) in 2 cases; and the breast was reconstructed with muscle-sparing rectus abdominis myocutaneous flap vascularized with intercostal artery perforator and inferior epigastric artery perforator. The length, width, and thickness of the flap were (28.9±0.2), (12.1±0.4), and (4.4±0.3) cm, respectively. The length of the vascular pedicle was (11.5±0.2) cm and the weight of the flap was (420.5±32.7) g.ResultsAll 6 muscle-sparing rectus abdominis myocutaneous flaps were successful, and the breast incisions healed by first intention. There was no vascular crisis, donor site effusion, hematoma, or infection. All 6 patients were followed up 12-36 months (mean, 26.8 months). The reconstructed breast had a good shape, good elasticity, and no flap contracture or deformation; only linear scars left at the donor site of the flap, and the abdominal wall function was not affected. During follow-up, there was no breast cancer recurrence and metastasis.ConclusionWhen the inferior epigastric artery perforators are too close to the upper edge of the flap and/or near the umbilical cord, the vascularity of lower abdominal flap can be ruined, harvested in form of muscle-sparing rectus abdominis myocutaneous flap vascularized with intercostal artery perforator and inferior epigastric artery perforator can efficiently ensure blood supply safety.
