The prognosis remains dismal due partly to late presentation, with associated low resectability rates, and the aggressive biological nature of these tumors. The median survival time from diagnosis in unresectable tumors remains only 4 6 months.For those patients amenable to surgical resection over the last 20 years have seen marked improvements in postoperative mortality and morbidity, especially in specialist pancreatic centres 23. Despite these changes long-term survival remains low. with a total 5-year survival rate remaining less than 5%.Patients with ampullary cancer have a better 5-year survival of 40°%-60°%.展开更多

The early stage lesions (Tis, Tl) were assigned as a separate group. The results of these groups were compared.Results The resectability for esophageal and gastric cardiac carcinoma was 94.0% and 84.4% respectively, and the overall resectability was 91.3% . The resectabih'ty for groups A, B, C and the early stage group was 82.1% , 85.1% , 90.2% and 100% , respectively. The overall operative mortality was 1.8%, it was 4.4% for group A, 1.6% for group B, and 0.5% for group C. The overall 5-year survival was 31.6% . The 5-year survival for groups A, B, C and the early stage group was 27.0% , 29.1%, 32.0% and 92.6%, respectively . Among the 3 temporal groups, differences were observed in terms of lesion stage, location and size, surgery with or without combined therapy and postoperative complications.Conclusion Best results were achieved in the early cases, with a resectability of 100% and a 5-year survival of 92.6% . The indications for surgical treatment were extended with increased resectability and decreased mortality. Subtotal esophagectomy combined with cervical esophagogastrostomy was advocated as the procedure of first choice for esophageal carcinoma in attempt to diminish the chance of recurrence, and to achieve better outcomes by using combined therapy for patients with e" stage b! lesion.展开更多

Methods: Thirty patients, with breast cancer of a diameter≤3 cm and a distance≥3 cm from the mammary areola were treated by mastoscopic from November 2003 to August 2006. After the lipoly- sis and suction of axillary fat, mastoscopic axillary lymph node dissection was performed. Results: The average operation time was 128.9 min (120–156 min), the intraoperative blood loss was 56 mL (30–100 mL). The mean lymph nodes harvested by endoscopy were 16 (6–34). Excellent cosmetic outcomes were obtained with symmetrical breast development and all the patients were satisfied with the treatment. Postoperative follow-up for 2–29 months (mean, 16.6 months) found no local recur-rence. Conclusion:This model of operation can protect the upper limb function and has value of aesthetics of the brisket. What’s more, improve the quality of survive of the patients.展开更多

Methods： forty-five patients with cancer of the cardia and esophagogastric junction underwent surgical resection. Of them, 29 were treated using proximal gastrectomy and 16 total gastrectomy. The 3-year and 5-year survival rate and the postoperative complication rate and mortality rate were followed up and compared between the two groups. Results： The 3-year and 5-year survival rates of group PG were 44.8% and 20.7%, of group TG were 37.5% and 18.8%, respectively, and the differences were not statistically significant （X^2= 3.84, P 〉 0.05; X^2= 3.89, P 〉 0.05）. The postoperative complication and mortality rate of group PG were 13.7% and 6.8%, of group TG was all 6%, respectively. Conclusion： Proximal and total gastrectomy treatment effects can not significantly influence the prognosis of patients in progressive stage of cancer of cardia and esophagogastric junction.展开更多

Methods： The data of 600 cases of PRPT in General Hospital of PLA were reviewed retrospectively. Results： Of 600 cases of PRPT, 546 were surgically treated. Among theme 369 were malignant and 177 benign. 366 cases were followed up for 1 month to 15 years. The 1-years 3-year, and 5-year survival rate in the patients subject to complete resection was 90.5%, 73.2% and 53.6%, respectively, and that in incomplete resection patients was 70.6%, 32.0%, 5.7% respectively （P〈0.01）. The Cox multi-various regression analysis revealed showed completeness of tumor resection, sex and histologic type were associated closely with local recurrence. Conclusion： Sufficient preoperative preparation and complete tumor resection play important roles for reducing recurrence and improving survival.展开更多

Methods: To collect the patients' data (102 cases) in our hospital from 2001 to 2009, who were found lymph node metastasis confirmed by pathologic in a certain period of time after esophageal cancer surgery. The factors affected the lymph node metastasis in esophageal cancer were analysed by single logistic regression and Logistic Regression Method. To analyze the rule of post-operative lymph node metastasis in different regions, according to the lymph node partition, in accordance with paragraphs of esophageal cancer in different groups. Results: Of the 102 patients after esophageal cancer surgery, who were confirmed by pathological examination, 50 cases had positive lymph node metastasis and 52 cases had negative, the lymph node metastasis rate was 49.0%. Lymph node metastasis rates of different depth, length and paragraph of tumor invasion had statistical difference (P < 0.05). The impact on lymph node metastasis rates of the different age and degree of differentiation had no statistical difference (P > 0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that the lesion length, depth of invasion and paragraph of tumor were meaningful factors affecting the lymph node metastasis. Of the 102 patients, 132 sites node metastasis were found by imaging study and histopathology with lower neck and supraclavicular node 59 (44.70%), upper mediastinum node 51 (38.64%), A-P windows node 1 (0.76%), anterior mediastinum node 1 (0.76%), Subcarinal node 5 (3.79%), paraesopha- geal node 3 (2.27%), hilar node 3 (2.27%), abdominal node 9 (6.82%). Conclusion: The length and depth of invasion, and paragraph of esophageal cancer are meaningful factors that affect the lymph node metastasis. The longer of lesion, deeper of infiltration and lower of paragraph, the easier to get independently lymph node metastasis. The postoperative lymph node metastasis was mainly distributed in the lower neck and supraclavicular region and upper mediastinal region, which is the focus of postoperative radiotherapy.展开更多
