Combined thoracic paravertebral block and interscalene brachial plexus block for modified radical mastectomy:A case report

BACKGROUND Modified radical mastectomy(MRM)is the most common surgical treatment for breast cancer.General anesthesia poses a challenge in fragile MRM patients,including cardiovascular instability,insufficient postoperative pain control,nausea and vomiting.Thoracic paravertebral block(TPVB)is adequate for simple mastectomy,but its combination with interscalene brachial plexus block(IBPB)has not yet been proved to be an effective anesthesia method for MRM.CASE SUMMARY We describe our experience of anesthesia and pain management in 10 patients with multiple comorbidities.An ultrasound-guided TPVB was placed at T2-T3 and T5-T6,and combined with IBPB,with administration of 10,15 and 5 mL of 0.5%ropivacaine,respectively.A satisfactory anesthetic effect was proved by the absence of ipsilateral tactile sensation within 30 min.Propofol 3 mg/kg/h and oxygen supplementation via a nasal cannula were administered during surgery.None of the patients required additional narcotics,vasopressors,or conversion to general anesthesia.The maximum pain score was 2 on an 11-point numerical rating scale.Two patients required one dose of celecoxib 8 h postoperatively and none reported nausea or emesis.CONCLUSION This case series demonstrated that combined two-site TPVB and small-volume IBPB with sedation can be used as an alternative anesthetic modality for MRM,providing good postoperative analgesia.

Effects of ultrasound-guided thoracic paravertebral block combined with general anesthesia on the secretion of pain-related mediators after modified radical mastectomy

Objective: To investigate the effects of ultrasound-guided thoracic paravertebral block combined with general anesthesia on the secretion of pain-related mediators after modified radical mastectomy. Methods: A total of 108 patients with breast cancer who were treated with modified radical mastectomy in this hospital between July 2015 and February 2017 were divided into the control group (n=54) and paravertebral block group (n=54) by random number table. Control group received routine general anesthesia, and paravertebral block group received ultrasound-guided thoracic paravertebral block combined with general anesthesia. The differences in serum levels of pain mediators, inflammatory factors and stress hormones were compared between the two groups of patients immediately after surgery (T0), 6h after surgery (T1), 12h after surgery (T2) and 24h after surgery (T3). Results: At T0, there was no statistically significant difference in serum levels of pain mediators, inflammatory factors and stress hormones between the two groups. At T1, T2 and T3, serum pain mediators NPY, PGE2 and 5-HT levels of paravertebral block group were lower than those of control group;serum inflammatory factors IL-1, IL-6, TNF-α and MCP-1 levels were lower than those of control group;serum stress hormones ACTH, Cor, AngⅠ and AngⅡ levels were lower than those of control group. Conclusion: ultrasound-guided thoracic paravertebral block combined with general anesthesia can effectively reduce the release of pain mediators and relieve the systemic inflammatory stress response after modified radical mastectomy.

Effect of Breast Conserving Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy(SLNB)and Modified Radical Mastectomy on Patients with Early Breast Cancer

Objective:To study the clinical effect of breast conserving combined with sentinel lymph node biopsy and modified radical mastectomy in patients with early breast cancer.Methods:Female patients with early breast cancer in clinical stage I and II were selected as the main objects of this study,the study period started from July 2017 to July 2020.In the breast conserving and sentinel lymph node biopsy patients,50 cases were randomly selected as the experimental group;50 cases in the modified radical mastectomy patients were randomly selected as the control group.The clinical intervention effect of the two groups was analyzed.Results:the perioperative indexes of the experimental group were shorter than those of the control group,the patients recovered faster,the incidence of complications in the experimental group was lower,and the quality of life scores of the experimental group were significantly higher than those of the control group,and the difference was statistically significant,the intervention effect of the experimental group was also better.Conclusion:The application of breast conserving and sentinel lymph node biopsy in the treatment of early breast cancer can promote the recovery of patients,shorten the operation time and reduce the rate of complications,which has significant clinical significance.

Observation on the Therapeutic Effects of Qingre Shengji Ointment(清热生肌膏)on Acute Radiation Dermatitis After Modified Radical Mastectomy

Objective:To observe the curative effect of Qingre Shengji Ointment(清热生肌膏)on acute radiation dermatitis caused by radiotherapy after modified radical mastectomy.Methods:100 patients with radiotherapy after modified radical mastectomy in our hospital from June 2019 to December 2020 were randomly divided into treatment group and control group,with 50 cases in each group.The treatment group was given Qingre Shengji Ointment(清热生肌膏)on the basis of routine nursing,and the intervention began until one week after radiotherapy,while the control group was given routine nursing.Observe and record the occurrence time of acute radiation dermatitis,the degree of acute radiation dermatitis,changes of skin erythema,pruritus,pain,changes of interleukin-6(IL-6)and curative effect were evaluated.The degree of dermatitis was evaluated by RTOG grading standard,the erythema was evaluated by TCM symptom score,and pruritus and pain were evaluated by visual analogue scale(VAS).Blood routine,liver and kidney function,electrocardiogram and other safety indicators and adverse reactions were recorded before and after the study.Results:The time of acute radiation dermatitis was 6-11 days(median 8 days)in the treatment group and 8-14 days(median 10 days)in the control group(P<0.01).The degree and probability of acute radiation dermatitis in the treatment group were 82%(41/50)in grade I,16%(8/50)in grade II and 2%(1/50)in grade III.The degree and probability of acute radiation dermatitis in the control group were 54%(27/50)in grade I,40%(20/50)in grade II and 6%(3/50)in grade III(P<0.05).The highest TCM symptom score of skin erythema in the treatment group was lower than that in the control group(P<0.01).The results of generalized estimation equation show that,The VAS scores of pruritus and pain were(1.34±0.01)and(2.08±0.02)(Waldχ^(2)=1198.123,P<0.01)in the treatment group and(2.08±1.74)(Wald^(2)=1547.804,P<0.01)in the control group,respectively.Compared with the control group,the VAS scores of pruritus and pain were(1.14±0.01)and(2.08±1.74)(Wald^(2)=1547.804,P<0.01)in the treatment group.After observation,the curative effect of the treatment group was better than that of the control group(P<0.05),and the subjective symptoms of patients were obviously improved.After treatment,the level of IL-6 in the treatment group was significantly lower than that before treatment,and was lower than that in the control group(P<0.01).Conclusion:Qingre Shengji Ointment(清热生肌膏)can prevent and treat acute radiation dermatitis to some extent,and its mechanism may be to inhibit the release of inflammatory cytokines,reduce the degree of dermatitis,improve the quality of life of patients,and its safety is good.VAS score can subjectively evaluate the changes of itching and pain,and it is easy to use,so it is worthy of clinical application.

Fifty-Year-Follow-up Results Compared with Shorter Follow-up of Breast Cancer Patients Undergoing Radical Mastectomy with or without Adjuvant Radiotherapy

Background: To evaluate the effect of follow-up length on the outcome of breast cancer patients, we compared the 50- and 25-year follow-up results in terms of cure rate, overall mortality and mortalities from breast cancer, second cancer, and benign diseases. Methods: 763 patients treated for breast cancer between February 1953 and September 1976, were followed up until December 2014. They were divided into two cohorts;earlier cohort exclusively underwent radical mastectomy plus adjuvant radiotherapy, while later cohort had radical mastectomy alone. Assuming that in all patients follow-up was terminated at 50 or 25 years after diagnosis, likelihood ratio test and stratified Log-rank tests were performed to evaluate the differences in cure rate and overall survival between the two cohorts. Results: During the 50 years, radical mastectomy alone compared with radical mastectomy plus adjuvant radiotherapy is associated with a significantly higher cure rate, and higher survivals regardless of whether the death was from breast cancer, second cancer, benign causes or any causes. However, if follow-up information is limited to 25 years, the advantage of radical mastectomy alone is partly offset and the survival difference between the two cohorts becomes less significant. Conclusion: Radiotherapy to breast cancer may adversely affect not only mortality from breast cancer, but mortalities unrelated to breast cancer. Since such deaths occur later, they may fail to be detected unless follow-up is long enough. Thus, deleterious effects of radiotherapy may be underestimated. Exceedingly long follow-up is required to accurately estimate the cure rate and the long-term effect of radiotherapy.

Effects of dezocine on cardiovascular response, stress response and cellular immune function before anesthesia induction in radical mastectomy for breast cancer

Objective: To investigate the effects of dezocine on cardiovascular response, stress response and cellular immune function before anesthesia induction in radical mastectomy for breast cancer. Methods: From January 2014 to January 2018, 220 patients with breast cancer undergoing modified radical mastectomy were randomly divided into observation group (110 cases) and control group (110 cases). The observation group was given dezocine before induction of anesthesia, while the control group was given the same amount of Sodium Chloride Injection. Heart rate (HR), mean arterial pressure (MAP), blood oxygen saturation (SpO2), aldosterone (ALD), renin (REN), cortisol (Cor), angiotensin Ⅱ (Ang-Ⅱ) and the level of T cell subsets at 5 time points before anesthesia (T1), 2 h after operation (T2), 10 hours (T3), 24 h (T4) and 48 h (T5) after operation were compared between the two groups. Results:There was no significant difference in HR and MAP between the two groups before anesthesia (30 min). HR and MAP of the two groups were higher at 2 h after operation and 10 h after operation than before, and the HR and MAP of the control group were higher than those of the observation group. There was no significant difference in ALD, REN, Cor and Ang-Ⅱ between the two groups at 30 min before anesthesia and 48 h after operation. ALD, REN, Cor and Ang-Ⅱ in the two groups at 2 h after operation and 10 h, 24 h after operation were higher than those at the 30 min before anesthesia, and ALD, REN, Cor and Ang-Ⅱ in the control group were higher than those in the observation group. There was no significant difference in CD3+, CD4+, CD4+/ CD8+ between the two groups at 30 min before anesthesia and 48 h after operation. CD3+, CD4+, CD4+/CD8+ in the two groups at 2 h after operation and 10 h, 24 h after operation were lower than those at the 30 min before anesthesia, and CD3+, CD4+, CD4+/CD8+ in the control group were lower than those in the observation group. Conclusion: Dezocine before anesthesia induction in radical mastectomy can effectively reduce cardiovascular response and stress response, and play a protective role in cellular immune function.

Comparison of remifentanil and fentanyl in patients undergoing modified radical mastectomy or total hysterectomy

Objective To compare the efficacy and safety of remifentanil and fentanyl in patients undergoing a modified radical mastectomy or total hysterectomy.Methods Fifty-four patients were evenly randomised into remifentanil group and fentanyl group. Anesthesia was induced by propofol (1-2 mg/kg) and either remifentanil (2μg/kg) or fentanyl (2. 5 μg/kg), and was maintained with inhalation of nitrous oxide in oxygen (2:1) and continuous infusion of either remifentanil (0. 2μg·kg-1·min-1) or fentanyl (0. 03μg·kg-1·min-1).Results The number of patients exhibiting light anesthesia responses in the remifentanil group during intubation and the maintenance of anesthesia was significantly less than that in the fentanyl group. Both systolic and diastolic blood pressures in the fentanyl group were significantly higher than those in the remifentanil group during intubation, skin incision, maintenance of anesthesia and extubation. The time to opening eyes on command and the time for extubation after surgery was comparable between the two groups. More patients in the remifentanil group (25 patients) required bolus injection of morphine for postoperative pain relief than those in the fentanyl group (5 patients, P<0. 05). There was no significant difference between the two groups in terms of side effects.Conclusions Under the condition of this study protocol, the anesthetic and analgesic effects of remifentanil are more potent than those of fentanyl. Remifentanil can offer superior intraoperative hemodynamic stability in comparison with fentanyl, and has no compromising recovery from anesthesia.

A Postimplant Cholesteatoma after Modified Radical Mastoidectomy

A postimplant cholesteatoma is one of surgical complications of cochlear implantation. Hoffman and Cohen (1995) reported that only one out of 172 (0.58%) patients developed a postimplant cholesteatoma. We experienced a case of postimplant cholesteatoma after the modified radical mastoidectomy. Case: A 61-year-old man underwent left modified radical tympanoplasty with mastoidectomy for middle ear cholesteatoma at another hospital 40 years ago. We performed right open type tympanoplasty for right cholesteatoma, and at that time there was no recurrent cholesteatoma on the left side. He had already lost the sensorineural hearing in both ears. After three-year-observation with no recurrence of cholesteatoma in both ears, the patient underwent a left cochlear implantation with a Nucleus-24 channel device. After 1 year, we found new lesion of cholesteatoma in the left attic, and removed it by transcanal approach. There has been no recurrence of cholesteatoma for 12 years. Conclusion: In long-standing middle ear problems, when we perform cochlear implantation, even though there is good aeration of the middle ear and an intact tympanic membrane, we need to adequately reflect on the area which should be obliterated.

Effect of Ketamine Instillation on Acute and Chronic Post Mastectomy Pain, a Dose Finding Clinical Study

Background: Uncontrolled acute postoperative pain is considered a risk factor for the development of chronic pain afterward. Objectives: To explore the most effective dose of ketamine instillation (1 of 3 doses: 1, 2, or 3 mg/kg) for acute and chronic post mastectomy pain (PMP). Methods: Ninety female patients with cancer breast, aged (18 - 60 yrs), weighted (50 - 90 kg), scheduled for modified radical mastectomy, randomly allocated into 3 groups to receive ketamine instillation after surgical homeostasis before wound closure (1 of 3 doses;1, 2, or 3 mg/kg as A, B or C groups respectively) patients were followed up for 48 h for acute pain (total morphine consumption, the first request of analgesia and visual analog scale at rest and movement (VASR/M), chronic pain by Leeds assessment of neuropathic signs and symptoms (LANSS) for six-months, hemodynamics, and side effects. Results: Median total dose of morphine consumption was 8 mg (5 - 10) versus 6 mg (6 - 7) in A and B groups respectively in the first 48 h postoperatively. Lowest VASR/M was recorded in C then B and lastly A group (P = 0.037). No patients in the C group requested analgesia versus thirty (100%) and nine (30%) patients in the A and B groups respectively with the first request of analgesia was 12 h (5 - 36) in the A group versus 30 h (12 - 36) in the B group respectively (P Conclusion: Ketamine instillation effectively controlled acute post mastectomy pain (PMP) in a dose-dependent manner and reduced the incidence and severity of chronic pain in patients who undergoing a modified radical mastectomy.

Effects of music therapy on depression and duration of hospital stay of breast cancer patients after radical mastectomy

Background Breast cancer remains the most important cancer among women worldwide. The disease itself and treatment may have a profound impact on the patients＇ psychological well being and quality of life. Depression is common in breast cancer patients and affects the therapeutic effects as well as prolongs the duration of hospital stay. However, few studies reported the effectiveness of music therapy on depression and duration of hospital stay of female patients with breast cancer after radical mastectomy. Methods One hundred and twenty subjects were recruited to this clinical trial and randomly allocated to two groups. The experimental group （n=60） received music therapy on the basis of routine nursing care, whereas the control group （n=-60） only received the routine nursing care. The whole intervention time was from the first day after radical mastectomy to the third time of admission to hospital for chemotherapy. Data of demographic characteristics and depression were collected by using the General Questionnaire and Chinese version of Zung Self-rating Depression Scale （ZSDS） respectively. One pre-test （the day before radical mastectomy） and three post-tests （the day before discharge from hospital, the second and third admission to hospital for chemotherapy） were utilized. Duration of hospital stay was calculated from the first day after radical mastectomy to the day of discharged from hospital. Results The mean depression score of all subjects was 37.19±6.30. Thirty-six cases （30%） suffered from depression symptoms, with 26 （72.2%） mild depression cases, 9 （25.0%） moderate depression cases, and 1 （2.8%） severe depression case. After music therapy, depression scores of the experimental group were lower than that of the control group in the three post-tests, with significant differences （F=39.13, P 〈0.001; F=82.09, P 〈0.001）. Duration of hospital stay after radical mastectomy of the experimental group （（13.62±2.04） days） was shorter than that of the control group （（15.53±2.75） days） with significant difference （t=-4.34, P 〈0.001）. Conclusions Music therapy has positive effects on improving depression of female patients with breast cancer, and duration of hospital stay after radical mastectomy can be reduced. It is worthy of applying music therapy as an alternative way of nursing intervention in clinical nursing process of caring female patients with breast cancer.

目的分析探讨乳腺癌改良根治术后皮瓣坏死的危险因素。方法选取2021年1月至2022年2月河南科技大学第一附属医院收治的92例拟行乳腺癌改良根治术治疗的乳腺癌患者作为研究对象,收集患者年龄、乳腺癌分期、病灶部位、肿瘤长径、病理分型、皮瓣厚度、皮瓣张力、包扎压力、是否合并糖尿病、术后是否发生皮瓣坏死等临床资料,并依据术后皮瓣坏死发生情况将其分为正常组与坏死组,多因素Logistic回归分析乳腺癌改良根治术后皮瓣坏死的危险因素。结果92例乳腺癌患者中乳腺癌改良根治术后出现皮瓣坏死30例(3261%),设为坏死组;未出现皮瓣坏死62例(6739%),设为正常组。单因素分析结果显示,坏死组皮瓣薄、皮瓣张力高、包扎过紧、合并糖尿病的患者比例均明显高于正常组(χ^(2)=6550、6753、6418、6332,P=0010、0009、0011、0012);多因素Logistic回归分析结果显示,皮瓣薄、皮瓣张力高、包扎过紧以及合并糖尿病是乳腺癌改良根治术后皮瓣坏死的独立危险因素(95%CI为1313~4533、1059~2640、1124~4277、1180~3899,P=0005、0028、0022、0013)。结论皮瓣薄、皮瓣张力高、包扎过紧以及合并糖尿病是乳腺癌改良根治术后皮瓣坏死的独立危险因素。

不同厚度补偿膜对乳腺癌放疗剂量的影响探讨

目的探讨不同厚度补偿膜对乳腺癌放疗剂量的影响。方法选择40例乳腺癌根治术后患者,所有患者均采用三维适形调强放疗技术,靶区包括胸壁和锁骨上区,放疗设计中在胸壁表面先后添加0.5 cm和1.0 cm厚紧贴患者体表的虚拟等效组织补偿膜,比较两种厚度补偿膜时乳腺癌放疗计划中的剂量分布和加速器跳数。结果两种厚度补偿膜时乳腺癌放疗计划中的靶区覆盖率、靶区均匀性指数、靶区最大剂量、靶区最小剂量、靶区平均剂量等剂量参数均无显著差异(P>0.05)。0.5 cm厚度补偿膜时加速器跳数为(113.64±11.73)次,1.0 cm厚度补偿膜时加速器跳数为(125.83±12.52)次,两者比较存在差异(P<0.05)。结论不同厚度补偿膜对乳腺癌放疗计划中的剂量分布无明显影响,但是1.0 cm厚度补偿膜时,可能导致放疗时间和成本增加。因此,在制定放疗计划时,应综合考虑患者情况和资源可用性,选择合适的补偿膜厚度,以达到最佳的放疗效果。
