Briefly, after the pancreatic transaction, a stent tube was inserted into the lumen of the pancreatic duct and ligated with it by a fast-absorbable suture. Another tip of the stent tube was introduced into the intestinal lumen at the jejunal limb, where a purse-string suture was made by another fast-absorbable suture to roughly fix the tube. The pancreaticojejunostomy was completed by ligating two fast-absorbable sutures to approximate the ductal end and the jejunal mucosa, and by adding a rough anastomosis between the pancreatic parenchyma and the seromuscular layer of the jejunum. The initial surgical results with this method were retrospectively compared with those of the 28 patients treated with conventional duct-to-mucosa anastomosis.RESULTS: The incidences of postoperative morbidity including pancreatic fistula were comparable between the two groups (new; 3%-17% vs conventional; 7%-14% according to the definitions). There was no mortality and re-admission. Late complications were also rarely seen.CONCLUSION: A pancreaticojejunostomy using an irradiated polyglactin 910 suture material and a temporary stent is easy to perform and is feasible even in cases with a narrow pancreatic duct and a normal soft pancreas.展开更多

The incidence of DGE was investigated and the influence of some operative techniques on the prevention of DGE was analyzed.RESULTS： During the operative process of PPPD, the methods of detached drainage of pancreatic fluid and bile and gastric fistulization were used. Postoperatively, six patients suffered DGE among the 186 cases; the incidence was 3.23% （6/186）. One of them was complicated with intraabdominal infection at the same time, and two with pancreatic leakage.CONCLUSION： Appropriate maneuvers during operation are essential to avoid postoperative DGE in PPPD. The occurrence of DGE is avoidable. It should not be used as an argument to advocate hemigastrectomy in PPPD.展开更多

Methods A prospective controlled trial was conducted with 165 cases receiving pancreati- coduodenectomy in the Department of Hepatopancreatobiliary Surgery from January 2010 to May 2012. The patients were divided into Group A （end-to-end/end-to-side invaginated anastomosis, n=52）, Group B （end-to-side mucosal anastomosis, n=48）, and Group C （SPDJCS, n=65）. The preoperative data, intra- operative data, and operative outcomes （incidence of pancreatic fistula, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, peritoneal drainage, peritoneal hemorrhage, peritoneal abscess, delayed gastric emptying, pulmonary infection, postoperative infection, blood transfusion, and perioperative mortality） were com- pared among the 3 groups. Results The total incidence of pancreatic fistula was 13.9% （23/165） in all the 165 patients. The inci- dence in Group A and Group B was 23.1% （12/52） and 18.8% （9/48）, both higher than that in Group C [3.1% （2/65）, both P〈0.05]. Group C showed significantly better outcomes than group A and B in terms of the opera- tion time （5.5±1.2 hours vs. 6.1±1.1 hours, 5.5±1.2 hours vs. 6.3±1.5 hours）, volume of blood loss （412.0±205.0 mL vs. 525.0±217.0 mL, 412.0±205.0 mL vs. 514.0±217.0 mL）, and postoperative drainage amount of plasma tubes （175.0±65.0 mE vs. 275.0±80.0 mL, 175.0±65.0 mL vs. 255.0±75.0 mL） （all P〈0.05）, while Group A and Group B displayed no difference in these aspects （P〉0.05）. As complications other than pancreatic fistula were concerned, the three groups were not different from each other （P〉0.05）. Conclusions SPDJCS may have the effect of reducing the incidence of pancreatic fistula after pan- creaticoduodenectomy. It could be safe, practical and convenient technique of anastomosis for pancreaticoje- junostomy.展开更多

Pancreatic fistula occurred in 14 patients （11%） among the interrupted suture cases and in 10 （6%） among the continuous suture cases （P = 0.102）. Major pancreatic leakage developed in three interrupted suture patients （2%） and zero continuous suture patients （P = 0.026）. In multivariate analysis, soft pancreatic consistency （odds ratio, 5.5; 95% confidence interval 2.3-13.1） and common bile duct cancer （odds ratio, 3.7; 95%CI 1.6-8.5） were＇predictive of pancreatic leakage.CONCLUSION： Pancreatic texture and pathology are the most important factors in determining the fate of pancreaticojejunal anastomosis and our continuous suture method was performed with significantly decreased occurrence of major pancreatic fistula. In conclusion, the continuous suture method is more feasible and safer in performing duct-to-mucosa pancreaticojejunostomy.展开更多

METHODS: A pig model of pancreatic ductal dilation was made by ligating the main pancreatic duct. After 4 wk ligation, a total of 36 piglets were divided randomly into four groups. The piglets in the control group underwent laparotomy only; the others were treated by three anastomoses: (1) end-to-end pancreaticojejunostomy invagination (EEPJ); (2) end-to-side duct-to- mucosa sutured anastomosis (ESPJ); or (3) binding pancreaticojejunostomy (BPJ). Anastomotic patency was assessed after 8 wk by body weight gain, intrapancreatic ductal pressure, pancreatic exocrine function secretin test, pancreatography, and macroscopic and histologic features of the anastomotic site. RESULTS: The EEPJ group had significantly slower weight gain than the ESPJ and BPJ groups on postoperative weeks 6 and 8 (P < 0.05). The animals in both the ESPJ and BPJ groups had a similar body weight gain.Intrapancreatic ductal pressure was similar in ESPJ and BPJ. However, pressure in EEPJ was significantly higher than that in ESPJ and BPJ (P < 0.05). All three functional parameters, the secretory volume, the flow rate of pancreatic juice, and bicarbonate concentration, were significantly higher in ESPJ and BPJ as compared to EEPJ (P < 0.05). However, the three parameters were similar in ESPJ and BPJ. Pancreatography performed after EEPJ revealed dilation and meandering of the main pancreatic duct, and the anastomotic site exhibited a variable degree of occlusion, and even blockage. Pancreatography of ESPJ and BPJ, however, showed normal ductal patency. Histopathology showed that the intestinal mucosa had fused with that of the pancreatic duct, with a gradual and continuous change from one to the other. For EEPJ, the portion of the pancreatic stump protruding into the jejunal lumen was largely replaced by cicatricial fibrous tissue. CONCLUSION: A mucosa-to-mucosa pancreatico- jejunostomy is the best choice for anastomotic patency when compared with EEPJ. BPJ can effectively maintain anastomotic patency and preserve pancreatic exocrine function as well as ESPJ.展开更多

METHODS： We studied 39 patients who underwent DHP for a peri-ampullary mass. Twenty-three patients received total parental nutrition and then started to have an oral intake of nutrition between postoperative day （POD） 7 and 14 [late postoperative enteral nutrition （LPEN） group]. Sixteen patients started to have enteral feeding through a jejunostomy catheter the day after the operation [early postoperative enteral nutrition （EPEN） group]. The incidence of complications and laboratory data at the early postoperative stage were studied in comparison between LPEN and EPEN groups. RESULTS： Serum levels of albumin and total protein in the EPEN group were significantly higher than those in the LPEN group. The loss of body mass index was significantly suppressed in the EPEN group as compared to the LPEN group. The lymphocyte count decreased immediately after the operation was restored significantly faster in the EPEN group than in the LPEN group. The EPEN group showed significantly fewer incidences of postoperative pancreatic fistulas, as well as a significantly shorter length of hospitalization than the LPEN group. There were no significant differences in the incidences of other postoperative complications between the two groups, such as delayed gastric emptying, surgical site infection, cholangitis, and small bowel obstruction.CONCLUSION： EPEN is a safe and beneficiaopportunity for patients who have undergone DHP for a peri-ampullary mass.展开更多

We describe a 62-year-old man with jejunal ectopic pancreas that led to jejunojejunal intussusception and ileus. The patient was admitted to our hospital because of intermittent abdominal pain. Plain abdominal radiography showed some intestinal gas and fluid levels. Abdominal CT scan demonstrated a target sign suggesting bowel intussusception. Jejunography using a naso-jejunal tube showed an oval-shaped mass about 15 mm in diameter with a smooth surface in the jejunum, which suggested a submucosal tumor (SMT), and edematous mucosa around the mass. Partial jejunal resection was carried out and the resected oval-shaped tumor, 14 mm×11 mm in size, was found to be covered with normal jejunal mucosa. The tumor was histologically diagnosed as type ectopic pancreas according to the classification proposed by Heinrich.Abdominal pain resolved postoperatively.This case reminds us that jejunal ectopic pancreas should be included in the differential diagnosis of intussusception caused by an SMT in the intestine.展开更多

文摘Intussusception is rare in adults. We describe a 62-year-old man with jejunal ectopic pancreas that led to jejunojejunal intussusception and ileus. The patient was admitted to our hospital because of intermittent abdominal pain. Plain abdominal radiography showed some intestinal gas and fluid levels. Abdominal CT scan demonstrated a target sign suggesting bowel intussusception. Jejunography using a naso-jejunal tube showed an oval-shaped mass about 15 mm in diameter with a smooth surface in the jejunum, which suggested a submucosal tumor (SMT), and edematous mucosa around the mass. Partial jejunal resection was carried out and the resected oval-shaped tumor, 14 mm×11 mm in size, was found to be covered with normal jejunal mucosa. The tumor was histologically diagnosed as type ectopic pancreas according to the classification proposed by Heinrich.Abdominal pain resolved postoperatively.This case reminds us that jejunal ectopic pancreas should be included in the differential diagnosis of intussusception caused by an SMT in the intestine.
文摘Background:Many studies have confirmed that ileal transposition can improve type 2 diabetes mellitus(T2DM),accompanied by increased glucagon-like peptide-1(GLP-1).We performed the experiment on diabetic rats to evaluate the effects and mechanisms of ileal transposition on the glycemic metabolism.Methods:Twenty Goto-Kakizaki(GK)rats were randomly divided into the ileal transposition group(IT group)and the sham operation group(Shamgroup).Weight,food intake,fasting plasma glucose(FPG),fasting insulin(F-ins),oral glucose tolerance test(OGTT)and GLP-1 were determined at baseline and 1,4,8,16 and 24weeks post-operatively.The homeostasis model assessment-insulin resistance(HOMA-IR)index and the area under the curve(AUC)during OGTT were measured.Histological determination of the GLP-1 receptor(GLP-1R)was performed on the pancreas and ileum24weeks post-operatively.Results:In comparison with the Sham group,the IT group showed a higher GLP-1 level and lower AUC at 4,8,16 and 24 weeks post-operatively(all P<0.05)and a lower FPG,F-ins levels and HOMA-IR at 8,16 and 24 weeks post-operatively(all P<0.05).Compared with baseline levels,the plasma GLP-1,AUC and FPG levels decreased significantly at each postoperative time point in the IT group(all P<0.05),but not in the Sham group(all P>0.05);F-ins and HOMA-IR significantly decreased at 8,16 and 24 weeks post-operatively in the IT group(all P<0.05).GLP-1R expression in the IT group was significantly higher than that of the Sham group in both the pancreas and the ileum at 24 weeks post-operatively(P<0.05).Conclusions:Ileal transposition ameliorated glucose metabolism without reduction in weight or food intake in GK rats,which may be induced by the increased GLP-1 expression.However,the delayed improvement of insulin resistance,accompanied by decreased plasma insulin levels,might not directly result from the increased GLP-1.
