To investigate retrospectively the complications and associated factors of gynecological laparoscopies. Methods. 1 769 laparoscopic surgeries were carried out from January 1994 to October 1999 at our department. The procedures included 1421 surgeries of ovary and tube, 52 myomectomies and 296 cases of laproscopic-assisted vaginal hysterectomy (LAVH). A total of 312 patients had a history of prior laparotomy (176%). Results. Complications occured in 34 cases, the overall complication rate was 192%. Unintended laparotomies occured in 6 cases(034%). 12 complications were associated with insertion of Veress needle or trocar and creation of pneumoperitoneum, including 5 severe emphysema and 7 vascular injuries, this figure represents 353% of all complications of this series. Five intraoperative complications (147%) occured during the laparoscopic surgery (3 severe bleedings, one bladder injury and one skin burn of leg caused by damaged electrode plate), laparotomy was required in four of these cases. Seventeen complications occured during postoperative stage: 2 intraperitoneal hemorrhages needing laparotomy, 2 bowel injuries, 4 nerve paresis and 9 febrile morbidities. Conlusions. Operative gynecologic laparoscopy is associated with acceptable morbidity rate, but can not be overlooked. Complication rate seems to be higher in advanced procedures such as LAVH.展开更多

Arnong the 38. 12 had low-malignancy tracheal tumors, 11 had benign tracheal tumors, 14 had low malignancy bronchial tumors and 1 had a benign bronchial tumor. Fifteen operations were perforrned on 12 patients with low-malignancy tracheal tumors, including local resection of the tumor and tracheal wall in 4 and curettage of the tumor plus electrical cauterization in 10. Postoperative radiotherapy was used as an adjuvant treatment in 8 patients with adenocystic carcinoma. Eight patients have survived for more than 5 years and 3 patients have survived for longer than 10 years postoperatively. All 11 patients with benign tumors received curettage of the tumor and were followed up for an average of 6. 5 years. Among them, 9 are still alive. Of the 14 patients with low malignancy bronchial tumors, 5 underwent curettage of the tumor plus electrical cauterization through incision of the main bronchus or intermedial bronchus, and 7 underwent lobectomy or pneumonectomy. The authors conclude that the correct diagnosis rate can be increased by enhancing recognition of this disease and applying tracheal tomography and bronchoscopy.展开更多

The mean time from the discovery of the shadow in the right upper lobe tothe confirmation of the diagnosis was 2 months. All patients underwent the resection of the right upperlobe with the dissection of the right mediastinal lymph nodes, among them, 4 patients had sleeve lobectomy of the right upper lobe. P-TNM staging: 23 cases were in stage- Ⅲ a, 21 cases in stage- Ⅲ b. The fre-quency of the postoperative complications was 20- 4 % (9/44 cases). The 1-year survival rate of all patientswas 61 % (27/44 cases). None of stage - Ⅲ b patients lived longer than 3 years. The postoperative 3-and 5-year survival rates of stage- Ⅲ a cases were 65. 2 % (15/23cases) and 21. 7 % (5/23 cases) respectively. Inthis article, the patients clinical features, the causes of delayed-diagnosis, the operative and postoperativemanagement were discussed. We suggest that the stage- Ⅲ a patients should be given surgical treatment,whereas, for the patients of stage- Ⅲ b, palliative operation was given just for the purpose of reliving thesymptoms.展开更多

The residual foreign bodies often occur during surgical removal. The clinical manifestations, imaging features and treatment of intraorbital wooden foreign bodies were discussed in this study. Method: We retrospectively analyzed 14 cases of intraorbital wooden foreign bodies managed at our hospital between January 2007 and May 2015. All patients underwent orbital CT examination before surgery, and surgery was performed under general anesthesia with orbital wound debridement and suture, as well as exploration and removal of wooden foreign bodies. Results: At first, 11 cases underwent removal of foreign bodies, including 1 case with incomplete removal and then receiving a secondary surgery. Foreign bodies were not found in three cases with preoperative misdiagnosis and orbital MRI found residual foreign bodies in the orbit. Operations were performed via primary wound approach in eight cases, conjunctival approach in two cases, and anterior orbitotomy in four cases. Postoperatively, one case was complicated with eye injuries, three cases with ocular muscle injuries, eight cases with visual loss, and eight cases with orbital abscess. The length of foreign bodies ranged from 1.8 cm to 11.0 cm. The maximum of four foreign bodies were removed at the same time. Conclusion: Because the imaging of orbital wooden foreign bodies is complex and varied, MRI should be combined when they are invisible on CT scan. At the same time injuries trajectory and clinical manifestations of patients should be taken into account. Surgical exploration should be extensive and thorough, and foreign bodies and orbital abscess must be cleared.展开更多
