急性重症胰腺炎手术治疗效果观察

目的:探讨研究重症急性胰腺炎手术的临床手术的治疗效果,把手术和非手术治疗急性重症胰腺炎的临床治疗效果,为治疗急性中毒胰腺炎找到好的临床治疗方法。方法:收治急性重症胰腺炎患者100例,分为非手术组、早期手术组和中转手术组,非手术治疗组33例进行禁食、胃肠减压、吸氧等基础上给与患者大量激素联合抗生素进行治疗,在治疗时同时采用奥曲肽治疗,0.6mg/24小时持续滴注,病情有所缓解后改为0.1mg/8小时进行肌肉注射,把乌司他丁10万U溶于250ml10%的葡萄糖中进行静滴,12小时/次,连续用1周左右,密切观察患者的生命体征和心肺状态,一旦手术加重或者恶化立即进行手术治疗。早期手术治疗33人,中转手术治疗34例。结果:在本组当中,总有效率57%,其中,早期手术患者有效率48%,中转手术组的有效率54%,非手术治疗组有效率67%。早期手术治疗组的死亡率比非手术组的死亡率明显偏高,两组间进行比较发现差异有显著性(P<0.05)。中转手术组的死亡率略高于非手术治疗组,但是两组进行比较差异无显著性(P>0.05)。结论:对于急性重症胰腺炎患者的治疗没有进行过手术的患者应当积极进行非手术的治疗,做过手术的患者应当为患者及时进行有效的手术治疗[1]。

手术治疗慢性前列腺炎并前列腺增生症的疗效分析

目的:总结34例前列腺增生症(BPH)并慢性前列腺炎(CP)手术治疗经验。方法:对34例BPH合并CP患者行耻骨上经膀胱前列腺摘除术,并与单纯性BPH比较其术中、术后手术情况和并发症发生情况。结果:BPH合并CP患者与单纯性BPH比较手术疗效差,并发症多,其原因是术中腺体剥离较困难,易破碎,术后常发生腺体残留、膀胱痉挛、膀胱颈狭窄等并发症。结论:BPH患者多合并前列腺增生,腺体增生体积与CP发生呈正相关。所以要严格掌握手术的适应证,在术中、术后要采取相应的预防措施,避免术中、术后可能发生的并发症。

Recent results of laparoscopic surgery in inflammatory bowel disease

Inflammatory bowel diseases are an ideal indication for the laparoscopic surgical approach as they are basically benign diseases not requiring lymphadenectomy and extended mesenteric excision;well-established surgical procedures are available for the conventional approach.Inflammatory alterations and fragility of the bowel and mesentery,however,may demand a high level of laparoscopic experience.A broad spectrum of operations from the rather easy enterostomy formation for anal Crohn’s disease(CD)to restorative proctocolectomies for ulcerative colitis(UC)may be managed laparoscopically.The current evidence base for the use of laparoscopic techniques in the surgical therapy of inflammatory bowel diseases is presented.CD limited to the terminal ileum has become a common indication for laparoscopic surgical therapy.In severe anal CD, laparoscopic stoma formation is a standard procedure with low morbidity and short operative time.Studies comparing conventional and laparoscopic bowel resections,have found shorter times to first postoperative bowel movements and shorter hospital stays as well as lower complication rates in favour of the laparoscopic approach.Even complicated cases with previous surgery,abscess formation and enteric fistulas may be op-erated on laparoscopically with a low morbidity.In UC, restorative proctocolectomy is the standard procedure in elective surgery.The demanding laparoscopic approach is increasingly used,however,mainly in major centers; its feasibility has been proven in various studies.An increased body mass index and acute inflammation of the bowel may be relative contraindications.Short and longterm outcomes like quality of life seem to be equivalent for open and laparoscopic surgery.Multiple studies have proven that the laparoscopic approach to CD and UC is a safe and successful alternative for selected patients. The appropriate selection criteria are still under investigation.Technical considerations are playing an important role for the complexity of both diseases.

Laparoscopic versus open appendectomy: Which way to go?

AIM: To compare the outcome of laparoscopic versus open appendectomy. METHODS: Prospectively collected data from 293 consecutive patients with acute appendicitis were studied. These comprised of 165 patients who underwent conventional appendectomy and 128 patients treated laparoscopically. The two groups were compared with respect to operative time, length of hospital stay, postoperative pain, complication rate and cost. RESULTS: There were no statistical differences regarding patient characteristics between the two groups. Conversion to laparotomy was necessary in 2 patients (1.5%). Laparoscopic appendectomy was associated with a shorter hospital stay (2.2 d vs 3.1 d, P = 0.04), and lower incidence of wound infection (5.3% vs 12.8%, P = 0.03). However, in patients with complicated disease, intra-abdominal abscess formation was more common after laparoscopic appendectomy (5.3% vs 2.1%, P = 0.002). The operative time and analgesia requirements were similar in the two groups. The cost of treatment was higher by 370 € in the laparoscopic group. CONCLUSION: Laparoscopic appendectomy is as safe and effi cient as open appendectomy, provided surgical experience and equipment are available.

Hemobilia secondary to hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm: An unusual complication of bile leakage in a patient with a history of a resected Ⅲb Klatskin tumor

We report a case of a 74-year-old woman with a 16-year history of a double bilo-enteric anastomosis due to resected hilar cholangiocarcinoma [Type IIIb Klatskin tumor]. The patient presented with cholangitis secondary to benign anastomotic stenosis which resulted in a large intrahepatic biloma. In order to restore the patency of the anastomosis and overcome cholangitis, several attempts took place, including endobiliary stenting, balloon-assisted biloplasty and transhepatic billiary drainage. Anastomotic patency was achieved, complicated, however, by persistent upper gastro-intestinal bleeding, presented as hemobilia. A biloma-induced pseudoaneurysm of the left hepatic artery was diagnosed. This had ruptured into the biliary tract, and presented the actual cause of the hemobilia. Selective embolism of the pseudoaneurysm resulted in control of the hemorrhage, and was successfully combined with transhepatic dilatation of the anastomosis and percutaneous drainage of the biloma. The patient was ultimately cured and seems to be in excellent condition, 5 mo after treatment.

Metastatic melanoma of the gallbladder: An unusual clinical presentation of acute cholecystitis

Metastatic disease from cutaneous melanoma can af-fect all organs of the body, and varies in its biological behavior and clinical presentation. We present the case of a 58-year-old man who arrived at our clinic with acute abdominal pain, which, after investigation, was diagnosed as acute cholecystitis. The patient under-went laparotomy and cholecystectomy. Two years ago, he underwent surgical removal of a primary cutaneous melanoma on his right upper back. Pathological exami-nation revealed the presence of malignant melanoma with a metastatic lesion of the gallbladder.

Acute pancreatitis at the beginning of the 21st century: The state of the art

Acute pancreatitis is an acute inflammatory disease of the pancreas which can lead to a systemic inflammatory response syndrome with significant morbidity and mortality in 20% of patients. Gallstones and alcohol consumption are the most frequent causes of pancreatitis in adults. The treatment of mild acute pancreatitis is conservative and supportive; however severe episodes characterized by necrosis of the pancreatic tissue may require surgical intervention. Advanced understanding of the pathology, and increased interest in assessment of disease severity are the cornerstones of future management strategies of this complex and heterogeneous disease in the 21st century.

Isolated segmental,sectoral and right hepatic bile duct injuries

The treatment of isolated segmental, sectoral and right hepatic bile duct injuries is controversial. Nineteen patients were treated over a 26-year period. Group one was comprised of 4 patients in whom the injury was primarily repaired during the original surgery; 3 over a T-tube, 1 with a Roux-en-Y. These patients had an uneventful recovery. The second group consisted of 5 patients in whom the duct was ligated; 4 developed infection, 3 of which required drainage and biliary repair. Two patients had good long-term outcomes; the third developed a late anastomotic stricture requiring further surgery. The fourth patient developed a small bile leak and pain which resolved spontaneously. The fifth patient developed complications from which he died. The third group was comprised of 4 patients referred with biliary peritonitis; all underwent drainage and lavage, and developed biliary fistulae, 3 of which resolved spontaneously, 1 required Roux-en-γ repair, with favorable outcomes. The fourth group consisted of 6 patients with biliary fistulae. Two patients, both with an 8-wk history of a fistula, underwent Roux-en-γ repair. Two others also underwent a Roux-en-γ repair, as their fistulae showed no signs of closure. The remaining 2 patients had spontaneous closure of their biliary fistulae. A primary repair is a reasonable alternative to ligature of injured duct. Patients with ligated ducts may develop complications. Infected ducts require further surgery. Patients with biliary peritonitis must be treated with drainage and lavage. There is a 50% chance that a biliary fistula will close spontaneously. In cases where the biliary fistula does not close within 6 to 8 wk, a Roux-en-γ anastomosis should be considered.

Role of surgery in severe ulcerative colitis in the era of medical rescue therapy

Despite the growing use of medical salvage therapy,colectomy has remained a cornerstone in managing acute severe ulcerative colitis(ASC) both in children and in adults.Colectomy should be regarded as a life saving procedure in ASC,and must be seriously considered in any steroid-refractory patient.However,colectomy is not a cure for the disease but rather the substitution of a large problem with smaller problems,including fecal incontinence,pouchitis,irritable pouch syndrome,cuffitis,anastomotic ulcer and stenosis,missed or de-novo Crohn's disease and,in young females,reduced fecundity.This notion has led to the widespread practice of offering medical salvage therapy before colectomy in most patients without surgical abdomen or toxic megacolon.Medical salvage therapies which have proved effective in the clinical trial setting include cyclosporine,tacrolimus and infliximab,which seem equally effective in the short term.Validated predictive rules can identify a subset of patients who will eventually fail corticosteroid therapy after only 3-5 d of steroid therapy with an accuracy of 85%-95%.This accuracy is sufficiently high for initiat-ing medical therapy,but usually not colectomy,early in the admission without delaying colectomy if required.This approach has reduced the colectomy rate in ASC from 30%-70% in the past to 10%-20% nowadays,and the mortality rate from over 70% in the 1930s to about 1%.In general,restorative proctocolectomy(ileoanal pouch or ileal pouch-anal anastomosis),especially the J-pouch,is preferred over straight pullthrough(ileo-anal) or ileo-rectal anastomosis,which may still be considered in young females concerned about infertility.Colectomy in the acute severe colitis setting,is usually performed in three steps due to the severity of the inflammation,concurrent steroid treatment and the generally reduced clinical condition.The first surgical step involves colectomy and constructing an ileal stoma,the second-constructing the pouch and the third-closing the stoma.This review focuses on the role of surgical treatment in ulcerative colitis in the era of medical rescue therapy.

Techniques for restoring bowel continuity and function after rectal cancer surgery

A very low local recurrence rate of 3%-6% (associated with improved 5 year survival) is possible when proper oncological surgery is performed of mid and distal rectal adenocarcinoma. Restoration of bowel continuity is possible in most cases, without compromise of cancer clearance. Re-anastomosis can be performed with stapled, transabdominal hand-sewn or coloanal pull- through techniques. However after a direct (straight) anastomosis of the colon to the distal rectum/anus, up to 33% of patients have 3 or more bowel movements/ d; some can be troubled with up to 14 stools a day. Construction of a 6-cm colonic J-pouch is likely to cause some reversed peristalsis which improves postoperative bowel frequency without causing neo-rectum evacuation problems. Colonic J-pouch-anal anastomosis patients have a median of 3 bowel movements a day compared with a median of 6 a day for straight anastomoses, at 1 year after surgery. In the longer term, bowel adaptation may enable the function after a straight anastomosis to approximate that of a colonic J-pouch-anal anastomosis. This probably depends in the former, upon whether the more rigid sigmoid colon or more distensible descending colon is used. An additional advantage of the colonic J-pouch-anal anastomosis is the lower risk of anastomotic complications. A more vascularized side-to- end (colonic J-pouch-anal) anastomosis is likely to heal better than an end-to-end (straight) anastomosis. Where the pelvis is too narrow for a bulky colonic J-pouch anal anastomosis, a coloplasty-anal-anastomosis is an option. The latter results in postoperative bowel function comparable with the colonic J-pouch. However, the risk of anastomotic complications is higher possibly related to its end-to-end anastomotic configuration. Laparoscopic techniques for accomplishing all the above are being proven to be effective. Restorative surgery for rectal cancer can be safely and effectively performed withmethods to improve bowel function very acceptably; the future advances are likely in laparoscopy.

Comparison of integrated Chinese and Western medicine with and without somatostatin supplement in the treatment of severe acute pancreatitis

AIM: To evaluate the therapeutic effect of the combined use of early short-term somatostatin and conventional integrated Chinese and Western medicine in treating severe acute pancreatitis. METHODS: Sixty patients with severe acute pancreatitis were divided at random into a somatostatin group and a basic treatment group. Both groups received integrated traditional Chinese and Western medicine without surgery. For patients in the somatostatin group, somatostatin was infused intravenously 250 μg/h for 72 h; other medications were the same as in the basic treatment group. In both groups, comparisons of therapeutic effectiveness were made in terms of morbidity of organic dysfunction and mortality rate, and severity of the disease according to serum levels of C-reaction protein, scores of acute physiology and chronic health evaluation (APACHE Ⅱ), and scores of Balthazar-CT. RESULTS: The indexes for C-reaction protein levels on the fourth and seventh clays, and APACHE II scores on the seventh day after treatment, were significantly improved in the somatostatin group than in the basic treatment group. The morbidity of organic dysfunction was lower in the somatostatin group than in the basic treatment group, although the difference was not statistically significant. There was no significant difference in mortality between the two groups. CONCLUSION: We conclude that combined traditional Chinese and Western medicines with an early short-term use of somatostatin can improve the condition of patients with severe acute pancreatitis.

Significance of preoperative C-reactive protein as a parameter of the perioperative course and long-term prognosis in squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma of the oesophagus

AIM： C-reactive protein （CRP） is an acute-phase reactant and a known indicator of the malignant potential of the tumour. The aim of this study was to investigate the significance of preoperative CRP as a parameter of the perioperative course and long-term prognosis in patients with squamous cell carcinoma and aclenocarcinoma of the oesophagus. METHODS： Serum CRP was determined preoperatively in 291 of 371 patients undergoing oesophagectomy for cancer from December 1989 to March 2004. Median patient age was 59 （28-79） year, 82.5% of patients were males. Squamous cell carcinoma was diagnosed in 151 （51.9%） and aclenocarcinoma in 122 patients. Transhiatal oesophagectomy was clone in 151 （51.9%） patients and 134 （46.0%） patients underwent the abclominothoracic procedure. RESULTS： In 127 （43.6%） patients the preoperative serum CRP concentration was within the normal range （〈 5 mg/clL）, elevated CRP levels were measured in 164 （56.4%） patients. Tumour extension （P 〈 0.0005） and the number of lymph nodes affected by metastatic spread （P = 0.015） were significantly increased in the group with elevated CRP levels. Among the perioperative parameters both the number of blood transfusions （P = 0.006） and the general complication rate （P = 0.002） were higher in patients with elevated preoperative CRP levels. The long-term survival rate of 13.6 （0-109.8） mo was poorer in the group with elevated CRP levels compared to 18.9 （0-155.4） mo in the group with normal CRP levels （log-rank test： P = 0.107）. Multivariateanalysis with backward variables selection identified preoperative CRP as an independent prognostic factor of the long-term prognosis in patients with oesophageal carcinoma, with a hazard ratio of 1.182 （95% confidence interval： 1.030-1.356）. CONCLUSION： The preoperative serum CRP-level is an easily determined independent prognostic marker in patients with squamous cell carcinoma and adenocarcinoma of the oesophagus.

Factors affecting recurrence after surgery for Crohn's disease

Although in Crohn's disease post-operative recurrence is common, the determinants of disease recurrence remain speculative. The aim of this study was to examine factors affecting post-operative recurrence of Crohn's disease. A Medline-based literature review was carried out. The following factors were investigated: age at onset of disease, sex, family history of Crohn's disease,smoking, duration of Crohn's disease before surgery,prophylactic medical treatment (corticosteroids, 5-amino salicylic acid [5-ASA] and immunosuppressants),anatomical site of involvement, indication for surgery (perforating or non-perforating disease), length of resected bowel, anast-omotic technique, presence of granuloma in the specimen, involvement of disease at the resection margin, blood transfusions and postoperative complications. Smoking significantly increases the risk of recurrence (risk is approximately twice as high), especially in women and heavy smokers. Quitting smoking reduces the post-operative recurrence rate. A number of studies have shown a higher risk when the duration of the disease before surgery was short. There were, however, different definitions of 'short' among the studies. Prophylactic cortic-osteroids therapy is not effective in reducing the post-operative recurrence. A number of randomized controlled trials offered evidence of the efficacy of 5-ASA (mesalazine) in reducing post-operative recurrence. Recently, the thera-peutic efficacy of immunosuppressive drugs (azathioprine and 6-mercaptopurine) in the prevention of post-operative recurrence has been investigated and several studies have reported that these drugs might help prevent the recurrence. Further clinical trials would be necessary to evaluate the prophylactic efficacy of immunosuppressants.Several studies showed a higher recurrence rate in patients with perforating disease than in those with non-perforating disease. However, evidence for differing recurrence rates in perforating and non-perforating diseases is inconclusive.A number of retrospective studies reported that a stapled functional end-to-end anastomosis was associated with a lower recurrence rate compared with other types of anastomosis. However, prospective randomized studies would be necessary to draw a definite conclusion. Many studies found no difference in the recurrence rates between patients with radical resection and non-radical resection. Therefore, minimal surgery including strictureplasty has been justified in the management of Crohn's disease. In this review, the following factors do not seem to be predictive of post-operative recurrence:age at onset of disease, sex, family history of Crohn's disease, anatomical site of disease, length of resected bowel, presence of granuloma in the specimen, blood transfusions and post-operative complications. The most significant factor affecting post-operative recurrence of Crohn's disease is smoking. Smoking significantly increases the risk of recurrence. A short disease duration before surgery seems, albeit to a very minor degree, to be associated with a higher recurrence rate. 5-ASA has been shown with some degree of confidence to lead to a lower recurrence rate. The prophylactic efficacy of immunosuppressive drugs should be assessed in future.A wider anastomotic technique after resection may reduce the post-operative recurrence rate, though this should be investigated with prospective randomized controlled trials.

Surgical treatment of ulcerative colitis in the biologic therapy era

Recently introduced in the treatment algorithms and guidelines for the treatment of ulcerative colitis,biological therapy is an effective treatment option for patients with an acute severe flare not responsive to conventional treatments and for patients with steroid dependent disease.The reduction in hospitalization and surgical intervention for patients affected by ulcerative colitis after the introduction of biologic treatment remains to be proven.Furthermore,these agents seem to be associated with increase in cost of treatment and risk for serious postoperative complications.Restorative proctocolectomy with ileal pouch-anal anastomosis is the surgical treatment of choice in ulcerative colitis patients.Surgery is traditionally recommended as salvage therapy when medical management fails,and,despite advances in medical therapy,colectomy rates remain unchanged between 20% and 30%.To overcome the reported increase in postoperative complications in patients on biologic therapies,several surgical strategies have been developed to maintain long-term pouch failure rate around 10%,as previously reported.Surgical staging along with the development of minimally invasive surgery are among the most promising advances in this field.

Factors associated with time to laparoscopic cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis

AIM: To determine patient and process of care factors associated with performance of timely laparoscopic cholecystectomy for acute cholecystitis. METHODS: A retrospective medical record review of 88 consecutive patients with acute cholecystitis was conducted. Data collected included demographic data, co-morbidities, symptoms and physical findings at presentation, laboratory and radiological investigations, length of stay, complications, and admission service (medical or surgical). Patients not undergoing cholecystectomy during this hospitalization were excluded from analysis. Hierarchical generalized linear models were constructed to assess the association of pre-operative diagnostic procedures, presenting signs, and admitting service with time to surgery.RESULTS: Seventy cases met inclusion and exclusion criteria, among which 12 were admitted to the medical service and 58 to the surgical service. Mean ± SD time to surgery was 39.3 ± 43 h, with 87% of operations performed within 72 h of hospital arrival. In the adjusted models, longer time to surgery was associated with number of diagnostic studies and endoscopic retrograde cholangio-pancreatography (ERCP, P = 0.01) as well with admission to medical service without adjustment for ERCP (P < 0.05). Patients undergoing both magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP) and computed tomography (CT) scans experienced the longest waits for surgery. Patients admitted to the surgical versus medical service underwent surgery earlier (30.4 ± 34.9 vs 82.7 ± 55.1 h, P < 0.01), had less post-operative complications (12% vs 58%, P < 0.01), and shorter length of stay (4.3 ± 3.4 vs 8.1 ± 5.2 d, P < 0.01).CONCLUSION: Admission to the medical service and performance of numerous diagnostic procedures, ERCP, or MRCP combined with CT scan were associated with longer time to surgery. Expeditious performance of ERCP and MRCP and admission of medically stable patients with suspected cholecystitis to the surgical service to speed up time to surgery should be considered.

Modification of end-loop ileostomy for the treatment of ischemic or radiation enteritis

AIM: To evaluate a new technique of temporary ileal anastomotic stoma, following small bowel resection, in patients where the anastomosis is anticipated to have borderline margins with dubious viability. METHODS: Five patients underwent enterectomy and partially anastomosed end-loop ileostomy at the University Hospital of Larissa between 2000 and 2006. Enterectomy was performed because of conditions such as mesenteric vascular occlusive disease, radiation entritis and small bowel injury. RESULTS: Postoperatively, none of the patients developed any stoma-related or anastomotic complications. There were no major complications. All patients were discharged between the 8th and 15th day after the procedure, and the stoma was closed 3 wk to 4 wk later. CONCLUSION: We believe that our proposed modification of end-loop ileostomy is a simple, quick and safe technique with minimal stoma-related morbidity, and with simple and safe reversion. This technique can be considered as a useful option in the treatment of ischemic or radiation-induced enteritis, and in the management of severe intestinal trauma.

Risk of post-operative complications associated with anti-TNF therapy in inflammatory bowel disease

There have been increasing concerns regarding the safety of perioperative anti-tumour necrosis factor (anti-TNF) α agents. We performed a literature review to evaluate the post-operative complications associated with perioperative anti-TNF use in patients with inflammatory bowel disease. A comprehensive review was performed with a literature search utilizing Pub Med, Cochrane, OVID and EMBASE databases according to published guidelines. To date, there are only data for infliximab. There are three published studies which have assessed post-operative complications with perioperative infliximab use in patients with Crohn' s disease (CD), four studies in ulcerative colitis (UC) patients, and one study on both CD and UC patients. Two out of the three studies in CD patients showed no increased post-operative complications associated with perioperative infliximab. Two out of four studies in UC patients also did not show an increase in post-operative complications, and the combined study with CD and UC patients did not show an increased risk as well. Studyresults could not be combined secondary to significant differences in study designs, patient population and definition of their endpoints. There appears to be a risk of post-operative complications associated with TNF therapy in some patients. Based on these data, careful patient selection and prospective data collection should be performed.

Stump appendicitis is a rare delayed complication of appendectomy:A case report

Stump appendicitis is an acute inflammation of the residual appendix and one of the rare complications after appendectomy. Paying attention to the possibility of stump appendicitis in patients with right lower abdominal pain after appendectomy can prevent the delay of diagnosis and treatment. In patients with stump appendicitis, CT scan not only assists in making an accurate preoperative diagnosis but also excludes other etiologies. We report a 47-year old man with preoperatively diagnosed stump appendicitis by CT, who underwent an open appendectomy 20 years ago.

Effects of beating-heart and arrested heart intracardiac procedure on the inflammation induced by cardiopulmonary bypass

Objective：To evaluate the effects of beating-heart and arrested heart intracardiac procedure on the expression of tumor necrosis factor alpha （TNF-α mRNA in myocardium. Methods： Thirty congenital ventricular septal defect （VSD） patients aged from 5 to 10 years old were randomly divided into 2 groups equally. Group A underwent traditional arrested heart intracardiac procedures ; group B underwent beating-heart procedures. Specimens of myocardium were obtained at the onset （baseline） and the end of cardiopulmonary bypass （CPB） for the determination of TNF a mRNA. Concentration of TNF-α was respectively measured after anesthetic induction （T1）, 20 min after the beginning of CPB （T2）, at the end of CPB （T3） and 6, 12, 24 h after CPB （T4-6） in all patierits： After separating polymorphonuclear leucocyte （PMN）, we distilled nuclear protein and mensurated the activation of nuclear factor-κB （NF-κB） by elec-trophoretic mobility shift assay （EMSA）. Results ：Compared with baseline, the expression of TNF-κ mRNA significantly increased in both groups （P〈0. 05）. TNF-α mRNA level of group A was significantly higher than that of group B at the end of CPB （P〈0.05）. The plasma concentration of TNF-α and neutrophil NF-κB activity in group A was significantly higher than that of group B at T,4-6（P〈0.05）. Conclusion：Compared with traditional arrested CPB, beating heart intracadiac procedure can effectively reduce the expression and release of TNF-α; it will benefit the protection of pediatric myocardial during CPB.

Secondary pouchitis in a post-operative patient with ulcerative colitis,successfully treated by salvage surgery

We report a case of secondary pouchitis, defined as a mucosal inflammatory lesion in the ileal reservoir provoked by pouch-related complication following total colectomy and pouch anal anastomosis, which was successfully treated by salvage surgery. A 20-year-old woman with ulcerative colitis developed acute severe bloody diarrhea following proctocolectomy, ileal pouchanal anastomosis and diverting ileostomy. She was diagnosed as having a secondary pouchitis mainly caused by a peripouch abscess and partly concerned with the abnormal pouch formation. The remnantrectum and ileal pouch were excised and ileal pouch-anal anastomosis and diverting ileostomy were constructed.The postoperative course was uneventful with no sign of pouchitis. Salvage surgery may be indicated to treat secondary pouchitis when caused by surgery-related complications.
