METHODS: From January 2002 to September 2007, we performed 75 RHLD, defined as removal of a portion of the liver corresponding to Couinaud segments 5-8, in order to obtain a graft for adult to adult living-related liver transplantation (ALRLT). Surgical complications were stratified according to the most recent version of the Clavien classification of postoperative surgical complications. The perioperative period was defined as within 90 d of surgery. RESULTS: No living donor mortality was present in this series, no donor operation was aborted and no donors received any blood transfusion. Twenty- three (30.6%) living donors presented one or more episodes of complication in the perioperative period. Seven patients (9.33%) out of 75 developed biliary complications, which were the most common complications in our series.CONCLUSION: The need to define, categorize and record complications when healthy individuals, such as living donors, undergo a major surgical procedure, such as a right hepatectomy, reflects the need for prompt and detailed reports of complications arising in this particular category of patient. Perioperative complications and post resection liver regeneration are not influenced by anatomic variations or patient demographic.展开更多

Methods: A retrospective analysis of our hospital from July 2009 to January 2011 Laparoscopic cholecystectomy in 89 cases of nursing data. Results: This group of patients the operation is successful, no serious complications occurred. Through surgery and nursing, has obtained the desired effect .Conclusions: The accuracy of the nursing co-ordination is to ensure the success of laparoscopic cholecystectomy. The most important thing is, with laparoscopic cholecystectomy and intraoperative nursing can improve the quality of life of patients.展开更多

Methods: 230 patients with severe TBI were randomly divided into two groups. 115 patients underwent SLTC (10 cm×12 cm) as an SLTC group, and other 115 patients underwent temporo parietal or fronto temporal craniotomy (6 cm×8 cm) according to the position of hematomas as a routine craniotomy (RC) group. Other treatments were identical in two groups. According to Glasgow outcome scale (GOS), the prognosis of the patients was evaluated and the complications were compared between two groups. Results: 27 patients got good outcome and moderate disability ( 23.5 %), 40 severe disability and vegetative survival ( 34.8 %), and 48 died ( 41.7 %) in SLTC group. 21 patients got good outcome and moderate disability ( 18.3 %), 28 severe disability and vegetative survival ( 24.3 %), and 66 died ( 57.4 %) in RC group. The incidence of incision hernia was lower in SLTC group than in RC group. However, the incidence of operative encephalocele, traumatic epilepsy and intracranial infection were not different in two groups. Conclusions: Standard large trauma craniotomy significantly reduces the mortality of patients with severe TBI without serious complications, but does not improve the life quality of the patients.展开更多

Methods: Retrospective analysis of 68 patients with very severe traumatic brain injuries treated in our hospital from 1997 to 2002 was done. Results: Forty one (60%) patients died. In the 50 patients treated surgically 27 (40%) survived, 8 recovered well, 9 had moderate disability and 10 had sever deficits. The 18 patients treated non operatively all died. Conclusions: Much attention should be given to the observation of the changes of severe brain injuries with cranial base injury. Timely operative decompression, basic life support, keeping effective brain blood perfusion and effective oxygen supply, improving cerebral microcirculation and preventing or controlling complications are the main methods to raise the successful rate of treating very severe brain injuries and the life quality of the patients.展开更多
