Vague preoperative localization and ectopic parathyroid often lead to the failure of operation in primary hyperparathyroidism. From Jun 1989 to March 1998, 11 cases of primary hyperparathyroidism had been treated surgically in the general surgery department of our hospital. Of them, 10 cases were operated successfully with the pathological diagnosis of adenoma and one parathyroid removed was reported normal. Preoperative localization, the knowledge of ectopic parathyroids, careful exploration during operation and the postoperative medical treatment are important for the perioperative management. Postoperative followup has emphasized to benefit the treatment in primary hyperparathyroidism.
Perioperative management of 58 hypertensive patients suffering from surgical disease is reported. We emphasize that before operation the blood pressure should be adequately controlled, and heart function promoted. It is safer that the diastolic pressure is controlled under 14 kPa before operation. During operation we strictly observe the change of the blood pressure and manage it in time. Analgesic and antihypertensive agents are used after operation.
Abstract: Due to complicated procedures and severe trauma, esophagectomy still remains an operation with high mortality and morbidity. With the advancement of anesthetic and surgical technique, as well as perioperative management, the mortality and morbidity after esophagectomy decreased significantly in recent years. The optimal perioperative management, normalized and individualized treatment was of importance in preventing postoperative complications and decreasing mortality after esophagectomy. This review summarizes the current state of perioperative management for esophagectomy.
Objective To introduce the results and strategy of perioperative management undergo coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) for patients older than 70. Methods One hundred and twenty one patients, 93.4%(113/121) of whom was complicated with other diseases, were retrospectively studied. Off-pump CABG (OPCAB) was used in 80 cases (66.1%). For the rest patients with severely compromised heart function or small target vessel with diffuse lesion, conventional CABG (CCABG) was selected. Left internal mammary artery (LIMA) was harvested leaving pleural cavity intact and grafted to left anterior descending artery (LAD). Saphenous vein(SV) was utilized for other anastomoses. Transit-time flowmeter (TTFM) was utilized to make sure that grafts were patent with satisfactory blood flow. Procedure of sternotomy and chest closure was carefully performed to decrease the complication of mediastinitis. Adequate nutrition and gradually increased physical activity were encouraged for "fast-track". Results Grafts were 3.08±0.75 for CCABG and 2.24±0.82 for OPCAB . LIMA was used in 90.9%(110/121) patients. One patient receiving emergency operation died of multiple organ failure syndrome resulting in mortality of 0.8%. The incidence of complication was 3.3%(4/121). The others recovered smoothly without any complication. Intubation time of OPCAB(10.04±5.68 h) was significantly shorter than that of CCABG(21.46±14.54 h). Patients were discharged within 12.22±5.56 days after operation. Conclusion Good short term result, namely low incidence of mortality and complication, could be obtained in patients older than 70 who underwent CABG through meticulous perioperative management.
Objective To explore perioperative management and postoperative effectiveness of hemophilia induced lesions of the foot and ankle. Methods Between June 1998 and February 2012, 10 cases (12 feet) of hemophilia induced lesions of the foot and ankle were treated with surgery, including 9 cases (11 feet) of hemophilia A and 1 case (1 foot) of hemophilia B. Single foot was involved in 8 cases and both feet in 2 cases, including 3 left feet and 9 right feet. All were males, aged from 13-41 years (mean, 22.6 years). Disease duration was 5-84 months (mean, 32.2 months). Preoperative American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score was 43.2 ± 21.1. Short Form 36 Health Survey Scale (SF-36) score was 45.4 ± 20.0. All patients were given clotting factors (2 000-3 500 U) for pre-experiment and clotting factors substitution therapy was performed perioperatively. Four cases (4 feet) underwent arthrodesis, and 7 cases (8 feet) underwent Achilles tendon lengthening/tendon transposition (1 patient underwent tendon lengthening on the left foot and arthrodesis on the right foot). Results The operation time was 65-265 minutes (mean, 141.1 minutes); 1 case had 400 mL blood loss and 200 mL autogenous blood transfusion, the other cases had less than 50 mL blood loss and no blood transfusion. Wounds healed by first intention in all patients, no postoperative infection, deep vein thrombosis, or other complications occurred. All cases were followed up 6 months to 14 years and 3 months (median, 22 months). The X-ray films at last follow-up showed the patients undergoing arthrodesis obtained complete joint fusion. AOFAS scores at postoperative 6 months and last follow-up were 78.8 ± 14.7 and 75.8 ± 14.5, respectively; SF-36 scores were 76.6 ± 13.1 and 75.5 ± 13.2, respectively; and significant differences were found when compared with preoperative scores (P lt; 0.05), but no significant difference between postoperative 6 months and last follow-up (P gt; 0.05). Conclusion For patients with hemophilia induced lesions of the foot and ankle, surgical treatment could relieve foot and ankle pain and improve the function. Clotting factors pre-experiment at preoperation and substitution therapy at perioperation can reduce the risk of severe postoperative hemorrhage.
Objective To discuss the impacts of completion rate of fast track items on postoperative management of colorectal cancer surgery. Methods Between February 2010 and May 2010, 100 patients (Group “Year 2010”) were analyzed retrospectively, who were compared with 76 patients (Group “Year 2008”) from the same period of 2008. Postoperative recovery indexes, complications, and completion rate of fast track items were studied and compared. Results For major fast track items, the completion rates of restrict rehydration, early out-of-bed mobilization, early oral intaking, and management of gastric tube and drains were significantly higher in Group “Year 2010” than those in Group “Year 2008” (Plt;0.05). Meanwhile, the completion rate of urinary catheter management was significantly higher in Group “Year 2008” than that in Group “Year 2010” (Plt;0.05). In early rehabilitation, the first flatus of patients in Group “Year 2010” 〔(3.86±1.05) d〕 was significantly earlier than that in Group “Year 2008” 〔(4.28±1.22) d〕, Plt;0.05; for postoperative hospital stay, though, there was no statistically significant difference between two groups (Pgt;0.05). As to the complications, there was also no statistically significant difference between two groups (Pgt;0.05). Conclusions As the concepts of fast track surgery became increasingly favorable, completion rates of fast track items are increased. As a result, more and more fast track items turn into regular perioperative care. Although enhanced recovery has been achieved, better collaboration and localilzation are still needed to make the full advantage of fast track surgery.
【Abstract】ObjectiveTo investigate the perioperative management in hepatectomy using hepatic energy metabolisom for enhancing safety of and improving the survival in patients with primary liver cancer (PLC).MethodsTwo thousands and one hundred fortythree patients with PLC were treated in this hospital from January 1990 to January 2004. The perioperative data, operative approach, postoperative treatment, postoperative clinical course and follow up data were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were divided into two groups: the early period group and the late period group(from January 1997 to January 2004) and comparison was taken between two groups. The preoperative redox tolerance index (RTI), intraoperative hepatopetal blood occlusion of half liver, and postoperative arterial ketone body ratio (AKBR) were investigated and evaluated.Results①The proportion of small PLC and resection rate increased, the morbidity of complications and mortality after hepatectomy decreased, also the survival rate prolonged in the late period group. ②When using RTI as an indicator for selection of hepatectomy, the morbidity of complications decreased from 21.1% to 11.0%, the mortality form 1.6% to 0.3%. ③Comparising hepatopetal blood occlusion of total liver (n=476) with half liver (n=523),the postoperative morbidity of complications and mortality were 25.8% to 11.9% and 2.3% to 0.6% respectively. ④Postoperative AKBR measurements was a reliable indicator to assess the energy status of the liver and liver failure.ConclusionRTI is of potential value in predicting preoperative hepatic functional reserve, hepatopetal blood occlusion of half liver could protect the residual liver function, and postoperative AKBR measuremeant is a simple and accurate means of determining the immediate state of metabolic dysfunctioning in liver resection. The authors propose that perioperative treatment is an important factor in decreasing operative complications and mortality rate after liver resection.
Objective To illustrate the situation of delayed discharge of patients after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) under fast-track (FT) recovery model, and analyze the reasons. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 152 patients who accepted perioperative management under fast-track model from January to December 2014. The reasons for discharging over 72 hours after hospitalization were analyzed. Results Among the 152 patients, 119 were discharged over 72 hours after surgery, and the rate was 78.2%. The main reasons for delayed discharge were pain (32.8%), limited range of motion (31.9%) and unwillingness to be discharged (27.7%), respectively. Conclusion For patients who have undergone TKA, FT model can shorten hospital stay, save expenses, and accelerate postoperative rehabilitation, but there is still much room for improvement.
Doubly committed sub-arterial ventricular septal defect (VSD) is a unique type of VSD which is located beneath both the aortic and pulmonary valve. Open-heart repair is traumatic especially for pediatric patient while trans-catheter device closure is also not suitable for this type of VSD. Minimally invasive per-ventricular device closure has been introduced as an alternative method in the treatment of doubly committed VSD with encouraging results. In the review, we will illustrate the surgical technique as well as perioperative management strategy as for this technique in treating doubly committed VSD.
ObjectiveTo explore the clinical effect of applying the concept of enhanced recovery after surgery (ERAS) to the perioperative management of elderly patients with intertrochanteric fractures.MethodsThe clinical data of 64 elderly patients with intertrochanteric fractures admitted to West China Hospital of Sichuan University from January 2016 to December 2017 were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 32 patients admitted from January to December in 2017 were in ERAS group, and 32 patients admitted from January to December 2016 were in control group. The control group used conventional orthopedic perioperative management measures, and the ERAS group combined the ERAS concept on the basis of conventional treatment measures for perioperative management. The incidence of perioperative complications, Visual Analogue Scale score, modified Barthel Index score, inpatient satisfaction and length of hospital stay were compared between the two groups.ResultsThere was no significant difference in age, gender, American Society of Anesthesiologists grade, combined disease, modified Barthel Index or Visual Analogue Scale score at admission, or time from injury to surgery between the two groups (P>0.05). The total incidence of perioperative complications (12.5% vs. 37.5%) and length of hospital stay [(8.09±2.33) vs. (10.41±3.63) d] in the ERAS group were lower than those in the control group (P<0.05). The Visual Analogue Scale scores of the two groups of patients before operation, on the first day and the third day after operation were lower than those at admission (P<0.05). The comparison between the two groups at each time point showed that the Visual Analogue Scale scores of patients in the ERAS group were lower than those in the control group before operation, on the first day and the third day after operation, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). The modified Barthel Index scores of the two groups of patients on the third day, and 1 month, 3 months and 6 months after operation showed a rising trend with time. The modified Barthel Index scores of the ERAS group were better than those of the control group on the third day, and 1 month and 3 months after operation (P<0.05). There was no significant difference between the two groups 6 months after operation (P>0.05). The hospitalization satisfaction score of the ERAS group was 95.56±5.12, which was higher than that of the control group (92.84±5.62), and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05).ConclusionsThe implementation of ERAS perioperative management for elderly patients with intertrochanteric fractures may reduce the incidence of perioperative complications, relieve patient pain, promote the short-term recovery of activities of daily living of patients, improve the inpatient satisfaction and shorten the length of hospital stay.
