METHODS A total of 110 patients with rectal cancer who underwent laparoscopic surgical resection with preservation of the LCA were retrospectively reviewed. A 3 D vascular reconstruction was performed before each surgical procedure to assess the branches of the IMA. During surgery, the relationship among the IMA, LCA, sigmoid artery(SA) andsuperior rectal artery(SRA) was evaluated, and the length from the origin of the IMA to the point of branching into the LCA or common trunk of LCA and SA was measured. The relationship between inferior mesenteric vein(IMV) and LCA was also evaluated.RESULTS Three vascular types were identified in this study. In type A, LCA arose independently from IMA(46.4%, n = 51); in type B, LCA and SA branched from a common trunk of the IMA(23.6%, n = 26); and in type C, LCA, SA, and SRA branched at the same location(30.0%, n = 33). The difference in the length from the origin of IMA to LCA was not statistically significant among the three types. LCA was located under the IMV in 61 cases and above the IMV in 49 cases. CONCLUSION The vascular anatomy of the IMA and IMV is essential for laparoscopic radical resection with preservation of the LCA for rectal cancer. To recognize different branches of the IMA is necessary for the resection of lymph nodes and dissection of vessels.展开更多

Secondary fistulas occur following operations of the left hemicolon and manifest as abdominal pain, abdominal mass, gastrointestinal bleeding, colonic ischemia and portal hypertension. Symptom intensities are flow-dependent, and can range from minimal symptoms to severe heart failure due to left to right shunt. Diagnosis is usually established by radiological or intraoperative examination. Treatment options include embolization and/or surgical resection. Therapeutic decisions should be adapted to the unique characteristics of the fistula on an individual basis. A new case of a primary arteriovenous fistula is described and discussed along with a complete review of the literature. The patient in this report presented with signs and symptoms of colonic ischemia without portal hypertension. The optimal treatment for this pa-tient required a combination of embolization and surgical operation. The characteristics of these rare inferior mesenteric arteriovenous fistulas are examined and some considerations concerning diagnostic and therapeutic strategies that should be followed are presented.展开更多

Colonic ischemia is a less common and more serious manifestation of AVE We report a case of ischemic colitis secondary to inferior mesentedc AVF in a patient who underwent a previous liver transplantation, subsequently developed portal vein stenosis, and then presented with acute lower gastrointestinal bleeding. He underwent percutaneous transhepatic placement of a portal vein stent and left colectomy.展开更多

However, IMAVF occurs very rarely and there are few reports in patients during chemotherapy. We report a case of a patient who developed IMAVF during treatment with bevacizumab in metastatic colorectal cancer(mCRC) after colon surgery.CASE SUMMARY An 81-year-old man was diagnosed with descending colon cancer and underwent left hemicolectomy without any complications. He was definitely diagnosed with high-risk stage 2 and received tegafur-uracil plus leucovorin as adjuvant chemotherapy. Three years and 6 mo after the operation, the cancer relapsed with peritoneal dissemination. The patient underwent CyberKnife radiosurgery targeting the recurrent tumor and received chemotherapy with S-1 plus bevacizumab. At 1 year after chemotherapy, he complained of severe diarrhea, which is suspected drug-induced colitis. As diarrhea worsened despite the termination of treatment, he underwent colonoscopy and computed tomography (CT) scans that revealed edematous change from sigmoid to rectosigmoid colon. CT scans also revealed an aneurysm adjacent to the inferior mesenteric vein and multidetector CT angiography showed the IMAVF. Elective angiography confirmed the diagnosis of an IMAVF and it was successfully treated by arterial embolization. The patient resumed chemotherapy with only S-1 6 mo after embolization.CONCLUSION Clinicians should keep in mind the probability of severe diarrhea arose from IMAVF in mCRC patients treated with bevacizumab.展开更多

文摘BACKGROUND During laparoscopic resection for colorectal cancer,there is controversy regarding whether the left colic artery(LCA)should be preserved at its origin.AIM To investigate the prognostic significance of preservation of the LCA in colorectal cancer surgery.METHODS Patients were divided into two groups.The high ligation(H-L)technique(refers to ligation performed 1 cm from the beginning of the inferior mesenteric artery)group consisted of 46 patients,and the low ligation(L-L)technique(refers to ligation performed below the initiation of the LCA)group consisted of 148 patients.Operative time,blood loss,lymph nodes with tumor invasion,postoperative complications and recovery time,recurrence rate,and 5-year survival rate were compared between the two groups.RESULTS The average number of lymph nodes detected in postoperative pathological specimens was 17.4/person in the H-L group and 15.9/person in the L-L group.There were 20 patients(43%)with positive lymph nodes(lymph node metastasis)in the H-L group and 60 patients(41%)in the L-L group.No statistical differences were found between the groups.Complications occurred in 12 cases(26%)in the H-L group and in 26 cases(18%)in the L-L group.The incidences of postoperative anastomotic complications and functional urinary complications were significantly lower in the L-L group.The 5-year survival rates in H-L and L-L groups were 81.7%and 81.6%,respectively,and relapse-free survival rates were 74.3%and 77.1%,respectively.The two groups were similar statistically.CONCLUSION Complete mesenteric resection combined with lymph node dissection around the inferior mesenteric artery root while preserving the LCA is a beneficial surgical approach during laparoscopic resection for colorectal cancer.
