Objective To evaluate clinical outcomes of complete video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) lobectomy for patients with peripheral lung cancer.?Methods?We retrospectively analyzed clinical data of 90 consecutive patients with peripheral lung cancer who underwent complete VATS lobectomy from July 2009 to December 2011 in Provincial Hospital Affiliated to Anhui Medical University. There were 55 male patients and 35 female patients with their age of 33-79 (62.5 ±11.5) years. Lymph node dissection group and number, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, length of postoperative chest drainage, length of postoperative hospitalization, postoperative morbidity and pain score were analyzed.?Results?There was no hospital death in this group. Operation time was 135.0±32.5 min, intraoperative blood loss was 230.0±80.4 ml, length of postoperative chest drainage was 4.8±2.1 days, and pain score on the third postoperative day was 5.3±1.2. A total of 520 groups and 1 568 lymph nodes were dissected during the operation, with 5.8 groups and 17.4 lymph nodes dissected in each patient. There were 71 groups with lymph node metastasis, a positive rate of 13.7% (71/520). Postoperatively, 2 patients had hoarseness and 3 patients had chylothorax, who were all cured after proper treatment. Ninety patients were followed up for 1-24 months. During follow-up, 4 patients died of tumor metastasis, and other patients were all alive with good quality of life.?Conclusion?Complete VATS lobectomy is a minimally invasive technique for patients with peripheral lung cancer with better postoperative recovery and reduced pain level. The safety and degree of radical resection of complete VATS lobectomy is similar to those of routine thoracotomy lobectomy. Complete VATS lobectomy can be recommended as a surgical treatment for patients with peripheral lung cancer.
目的 探讨肝门部胆管癌2种手术方法的疗效。方法 回顾性分析我院1998~2006年期间收治的37例肝门部胆管癌患者的临床资料。结果 37例患者中13例行根治性手术切除, 其1年与3年的生存率分别为100%(13/13)和76.92%(10/13),中位生存期为22.43个月; 另24例行姑息性手术(均为肝内胆管内引流术),其1年与3年生存率分别为54.55%(12/22)和9.09%(2/22),中位生存期为15.42个月。结论 根治性手术是治疗肝门部胆管癌的主要手段; 姑息性手术,如合理的肝内胆管内引流能改善患者的生存质量。
