Abstract: Objective To investigate the cause and treatment of iatrogenic tracheobronchoesophageal fistula and provide experiences for clinic treatment. Methods Between January 1995 to December 2008, 21 patients with tracheobronchoesophageal fistula were treated in Shanghai Chest Hospital and Shanghai 6th Hospital. Among them, iatrogenic fistula happened in 12 patients including 8 males and 4 females whose age ranged from 35 to 74 years old with an average age of 47. Fistula developed 21 d to 5 years after the treatment of the primary diseases which were mainly tumors. Two of them developed tracheoesophageal fistula, 10 bronchoesophageal fistula; 6 right bronchoesophageal fistula, and 4 left bronchoesophageal fistula. Fistula excision and surgical repair of the tracheobronchoesophageal fistula were performed on 2 patients; Lung lobectomy and repair of the esophageal fistula were performed on 5 patients; Tracheal fistula repair and pneumonectomy with reconstruction of the digestive tract were done on the rest 5 patients. Results No operative death occurred. Postoperative complications in 2 cases were cured without recurrence. In the 1year followup to all the 12 patients, no recurrence of fistula occurred. Conclusion Iatrogenic tracheobronchoesophageal fistula is a complex and severe disease for which surgery is the only best treatment.
ObjectiveTo explore the correlation between expression of thyroid transcription factor-1 (TTF-1) and gene mutation of epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR) in patients with resectable lung adenocarcinoma (LAC). Method Sixty-seven LAC patients who underwent surgical resection in the Department of Cardiothoracic Surgery of Shanghai No.6 Hospital and Department of Thoracic Surgery, Renji Hospital, School of Medicine of Shanghai Jiaotong University from June 2009 to December 2012 were enrolled in this study. There were 40 male and 27 female patients with their age of 37-79 (56.7±1.8) years. TTF-1 expression was detected by immunohistochemistry. EGFR gene mutation was examined with mutant-enriched polymerase chain reaction. The correlation between TTF-1 expression and EGFR gene mutation was analyzed with corrected chi-square test. ResultsAmong the 67 LAC samples, 57 samples were TTF-1 positive and 10 samples were TTF-1 negative. There was EGFR gene mutation in 44 samples. EGFR gene mutation rate was 73.7% (42/57) in TTF-1 positive patients and 20.0% (2/10) in TTF-1 negative patients. The sensitivity of TTF-1 expression to predict EGFR mutation was 95.5%, and the specificity was 34.8%. ConclusionEGFR gene mutation rate is higher in LAC patients with positive TTF-1 expression. Positive TTF-1 expression can be used to predict EGFR gene mutation in LAC patients.
目的 探讨胸外伤开胸探查的手术指征及救治策略。 方法 回顾性分析我院自 2006 年 1 月至 2014 年 12 月经开胸探查救治 51 例胸外伤患者的临床资料,其中男 43 例、女 8 例,年龄 24(17~75)岁。 结果 全组损伤严重度评分(ISS)平均 19.4 分。闭合性损伤 16 例,开放性损伤 35 例,治愈 45 例(88.24%),死亡 6 例(11.76%)。死亡原因为心脏破裂、失血性休克、感染性休克、多器官功能障碍综合征(MODS)、弥散性血管内凝血(DIC)。 结论 及时就医、快速诊断、准确把握手术指征、多科室联合诊治是救治胸外伤的关键。
目的探讨可吸收肋骨钉与记忆合金接骨板内固定两种方法治疗多发性肋骨骨折的效果。 方法回顾性分析2009年1月至2014年1月在上海市第六人民医院胸外科行手术内固定的胸部外伤致多根多处肋骨骨折患者321例的临床资料,其中可吸收肋骨钉组70例,其中男62例、女8例,年龄(48.54±9.74)岁;记忆合金接骨板组251例,其中男187例、女64例,年龄(51.44±10.22)岁。分析两组患者疗效差异。 结果两组患者术前疼痛评分(7.74±0.89 vs.7.66±0.92)、术后疼痛评分(3.80±0.79 vs.3.82±0.85),术后胸腔引流时间[(6.00±2.84)d vs.(5.68±2.98)d]差异均无统计学意义(P>0.05)。记忆合金接骨板组住院时间[(20.06±7.39)d vs.(17.77±7.68)d],及手术时间(101.29±30.67)min vs.(71.95±29.50)min]均短于可吸收肋骨钉组,且差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。术后3个月随访复查胸部X线,两组患者骨折再移位差异无统计学意义。 结论可吸收肋骨钉与记忆合金接骨板均是治疗多发性肋骨骨折较理想的术式,记忆合金接骨板手术操作更为简单,可吸收肋骨钉手术无需在体内留置金属内固定装置,但固定强度较接骨板略差,应根据情况选择合适的内固定方法。
