Methods: From May 1985 to December 2002, 2 240 esophageal and stomach cardia cancer patients treated by intrathoracic esophagogastric "layer-to-layer" anastomosis with esophageal mucosa extended varied in plane were retrospectively analyzed. Results: There was no anastomotic leaking and severe stricture in all above cases. Conclusion: Intrathoracic esophagogastric "layer-to-layer" anastomosis with esophageal mucosal extended varied in plane is an effective method to prevent anastomotic leaking and stricture postoperatively.展开更多

MEHTODS: Three hundred and fifty-eight patients were divided into POPC group and COPD group. We performed a retrospective review of the 358 consecutive patients after esophagectomy for esophageal cancer with or without COPD to assess the possible influence of COPD on postoperative pulmonary complications. We classified COPD into four grades according to percent-predicted forced expiratory volume in 1 s (FEV1) and analyzed the incidence rate of complications among the four grades. Perioperative arterial blood gases were tested in patients with or without pulmonary complications in COPD group and compared with POP(: group. RESULTS: Patients with COPD (29/86, 33.7%)had more pulmonary complications than those without COPD (36/272, 13.2%) (P〈0.001). Pneumonia (15/29, 51.7%), atelectasis (13/29, 44.8%), prolonged 02 supplement (10/29, 34.5%), and prolonged mechanical ventilation (8/29, 27.6%) were the major complications in COPD group. Moreover, patients with severe COPD (grade Ⅱ B, FEV1 〈 50% of predicted) had more POPCs than those with moderate(gradeⅡA,50%-80% of predicted) and mild (grade Ⅰ≥80% of predicted) COPD (P〈0.05). PaO2 was decreased and PaCO2 was increased in patients with pulmonary complications in COPD group in the first postoperative week.CONCLUSION: The criteria of COPD are the critical predictor for pulmonary complications in esophageal cancer patients undergoing esophagectomy. Severity of COPD affects the incidence rate of the pulmonary complication,and percent-predicted FEV1 is a good predictive variable for pulmonary complication in patients-with COPD.Arterial blood gases are helpful in directing perioperative management.展开更多

Authors aim to design a system that will be operated in some extent by the Internet users, and so it will be easier to be accepted by Western democracies willing to implement a fair Internet regulation policy. Last, the authors state the importance of using well-designed surveys prior to the implementation of FIRS, announce the launch of an online tool (WebObserver.net) and invite researchers to be part of this international effort.展开更多
