ObjectiveTo compare the clinical outcomes of laparoscopic magnetic compression cholangiojejunostomy (LMCCJ) with laparoscopic hand-sutured cholangiojejunostomy (LHSCJ). MethodsA retrospective case-control study was performed. From January 2019 to May 2022, 37 patients, who underwent laparoscopic treatment in this hospital, were enrolled in this study. There were 16 cases in the LMCCJ group and 21 cases in the LHSCJ group. The demographic information, procedure time to complete bilioenteric reconstruction, postoperative hospital stay, operative complications, magnets expulsion time, and follow-up results were collected and analyzed. ResultsThere were no statistical differences in the baseline data such as the gender, age, composition of primary diseases, preoperative total bilirubin, and preoperative common bile duct diameter between the two groups (P＞0.05). The outer diameter of the magnets was (10.50±0.97) mm, the expulsion time of the magnets was (49.69±37.58) d, and the expulsion rate of the magnets was 100% (16/16). There was no intestinal obstruction or gastrointestinal perforation caused by the retention of the magnets. The procedure time to complete bilioenteric reconstruction in the LMCCJ group was statistically shorter than that in the LHSCJ group [(11.31±3.40) min vs. (24.81±3.40) min, t=11.96, P＜0.01]. There was no statistical difference in the total bilirubin level at the first week after surgery between the two groups (U=142.0, P=0.80). The postoperative hospital stay in the LMCCJ group was longer than that in the LHSCJ group [(28.31±14.11) d vs. (16.19±7.56) d, t=3.36, P＜0.01]. During the perioperative period, there was no bleeding or biliary infection in the two groups, but one case of biliary leak in the LHSCJ group. In all 37 patients were followed-up for (548.8±259.2) d. During the follow-up period, the incidence rates of biliary intestinal anastomosis stenosis, tumor recurrence, and mortality had no statistical differences between the two groups (P＞0.05). ConclusionFrom the results of comparative analysis in this study, it can be concluded that LMCCJ is not only safe equally, but also easier and less time-consuming as compared with LHSCJ.
ObjectiveTo investigate the potential role of caudal type homeobox transcription factor-2 (CDX-2) and liverintestine cadherin (LI-cadherin) in the development and progression of gastric tumor by detecting their expressions in gastric cancer and benign lesions. MethodsThe expressions of CDX-2 and LI-cadherin protein were detected by immunohistochemistry in normal gastric mucosa (n=28), chronic superficial gastritis (n=30), chronic atrophic gastritis (n=42), intestinal metaplasia (n=58), gastric adenocarcinoma (n=46), vicinity cancerous tissue (n=30), and gastric stromal tumor (n=10)．Then, the relationship between expression of CDX-2 or LI-cadherin protein and clinicopathologic features was analyzed． Results①The expressions of CDX-2 and LI-cadherin were all negative in normal gastric mucosa, chronic superficial gastritis, vicinity cancerous tissue, and gastric stromal tumor. The positive rates of CDX-2 protein expression in intestinal metaplasia and gastric adenocarcinoma were 91.4% (53/58) and 80.4% (37/46), respectively, and the positive rates of LI-cadherin protein expression were 82.8% (48/58) in intestinal metaplasia and 65.2% (30/46) in gastric adenocarcinoma. The positive rates of CDX-2 and LI-cadherin protein expression in intestinal type gastric adenocarcinoma 〔90.6% (29/32) and 78.1% (25/32)〕 were higher than those in diffuse type gastric adenocarcinoma 〔57.1% (8/14) and 35.7% (5/14)〕, Plt;0.05． ② CDX-2 protein expression was associated with degree of differentiation (P=0.007), and LI-cadherin protein expression was associated with lymph node metastasis (P=0.007) and cancer staging (P=0.013). ③ In the mucosa of intestinal metaplasia, the coexpression positive rate of CDX-2 protein expression in nucleus with LI-cadherin protein in cytoplasm or membrane was 83.0% (44/53), while the coexpression positive rate was 67.6% (25/37) in gastric adenocarcinoma. Although b tendency between CDX-2 and LI-cadherin protein expression was showed, it was not confirmed by the correlation analysis (r=238， P=0.115). ConclusionsThe abnormal expressions of CDX-2 and LI-cadherin may be involved in the development and progress of intestinal metaplasia and gastric adenocarcinoma, respectively, and further studies are needed to determine if they have synergistic effect.
This study was to build a canine portal hypertension model by intra-portal administration of high polymer material polyurethane and organic solvent tetrahydrofuran mixed solutions in order to evaluate the effectiveness of the model. Twelve local crossbreed dogs were selected randomly, with intra-portal administration of 8% (weight/volume) polyurethane-tetrahydrofuran solutions through an incision in the upper abdomen to build the portal hypertension model. We measured the portal vein pressure before modeling, during modeling, and four-, eight-, and twelve-weeks after modeling, respectively. Then we evaluated the effectiveness of the model comparing values of data with those data obtained before modeling started, which were regarded as the normal values. The results showed that the portal vein pressure rose by 2.5 times after the solution administrated instantly as much as that before modeling, and maintained at 1.5 times after 4 weeks. This method presents an easy operation, low animal mortality and reliable model of portal hypertension. Its less abdominal adhesions and its ability in keeping normal anatomic structure specially make it suit for surgical research of portal hypertension.

Some core issues are presented in this review in order to provide references for propelling secure application of liver transplantation based on donation after cardiac death.
ObjectiveTo investigate the survival of liver cancer cells in hypotonic solution, and provide a theoretical basis for the clinical application of warm distilled water to kill free intraperitoneal liver cancer cells. MethodsThe hepatocellular carcinoma cell line Hep3B were cultured by using different osmotic HEPES buffered solution (148 mOsmol/kg, 90 mOsmol/kg, and 0 mOsmol/kg) in vitro, and then the activity and status of the cells were observed by using the MTT assay and flow cytometry. ResultsOne hundred and forty-eight mOsmol/kg and 90 mOsmol/kg osmotic pressure solution had no obvious killing effect for hepatocellular carcinoma cell line Hep3B, the cells still had strong activity after 30 min. The 0 mOsmol/kg osmotic pressure distilled water had particular killing effect for hepatocellular carcinoma cells, with the prolongation of time and the killing effect was enhanced. It needs 10 min to destruct free cancer cells. ConclusionApplication of warm distilled water lavage in liver cancer surgery requires the continuing role of 10 min to kill the intraperitoneal free cancer cells, thereby preventing the occurrence of postoperative peritoneal metastasis.
ObjectiveTo verify the feasibility of a self-designed magnetic anchoring and traction device (MATD) for assisting two-port video-assisted thoracoscopic esophagectomy.MethodsThree Beagle dogs were selected as animal models with age ranging from 1-6 years and weight ranging from 8-12 kg, and they underwent two-port video-assisted thoracoscopic esophagectomy after general anesthesia. We used the MATD to retract the esophagus to different directions, which assisted mobilizing esophagus, detecting the nerves along esophagus and dissecting paraesophagus lymph nodes. The operation time, blood loss and feasibility of the MATD were recorded.ResultsWith the aid of the MATD, we successfully retracted and mobilized the esophagus, detected the nerves and dissected the lymph nodes in three Beagle dog models. During the operation, the MATD provided sufficient and steady traction of esophagus to achieve a good exposure of the operative field, effectively decreasing the interference between working instruments. The MATD worked well. The mean operation time was 30 min, and the mean intraoperative blood loss was about 10 mL.ConclusionIt is effective to use the MATD to assist retracting esophagus during video-assisted thoracoscopic esophagectomy. The magnetic anchoring and traction technique can assist to expose the surgical field, decrease the interference between the working instruments and have the potential clinical application.
The magnamosis device for stage-one repair of the rectovaginal fistula consists of two arc magnets. Drawing the interrupting thread along the fistula margin via the vaginal side, and pulling the string to arrange the magnets at the fistula base along the long axis of the vagina, we made the magnamosis device automatically clipped to seal the fistula. After removing the threads we kept the device for 2~4 weeks till the natural detachment of it when the compressed tissue in between healed after vascular necrosis. This device utilizing the unique ability of magnamosis to fulfill anastomosis under inflammatory infected state reduces the current high relapse rate and colostomy drawbacks of the conventional rectovaginal neoplasty.
ObjectiveTo summarize the recent development of the magnetic compression anastomosis in surgery. MethodsThe abroad and domestic relevant literature about magnetic compression anastomosis was extensively reviewed, and comprehensive analyzed. ResultsMagnetic compression anastomosis in the reconstruction of the body lumen is a simple and effective way; laparoscopy combined with magnetic compression anastomosis has the advantages of small wound and quick recovery. Magnetic compression anastomosis has been increasingly used in cl inical practice. But its mechanism has not been fully revealed, and it is difficulty in expelling out of the magnet for the gastrointestinal and certain large-size lumen, so further research and optimization are still needed. ConclusionRelative to the traditional manual suture, magnetic anastomosis has great advantage, especially a combination of magnetic compression anastomosis and minimally invasive surgery has bright prospects for development.
