A modified abstructingpressing therapy done on 14 patients with high or low external intestinal fistulas following postoperative infection after abdominal operations was reported. The results showed that high or low external intestinal fistulas could be cured by the combined method of obstruction and compression. This therapy decreased the mortality rate, saved the patients from the risk period and shortened curing course of treatment. Finally the characteristics, the surgical procedure, precautions and advantages of the method were disscussed.
Venous pressure monitoring is an important indicator for the arteriovenous fistula evaluation. Direct static venous pressure monitoring is recognized as the most accurate way of venous pressure monitoring, which is widely used in the functional monitoring, functional evaluation of arteriovenous fistula, the diagnosis of complications and the evaluation of surgical efficacy. Venous pressure monitoring has obvious advantages and disadvantages, so it is necessary to improve relevant knowledge to correctly guide clinical diagnosis and treatment. In this paper, the study of static venous pressure monitoring of arteriovenous fistula was summarized, in order to improve the understanding of the significance and clinical application of static venous pressure monitoring of arteriovenous fistula.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the various methods in prevention of pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy.MethodsThe literatures over the years related to prevention of pancreatic fistula were reviewed.ResultsManagement of the pancreatic stump following pancreaticoduodenectomy played the most important role in preventing pancreatic fistula. None of the methods of pancreatic stump had proved to be perfect in preventing pancreatic fistula, though pancreaticojejunostomy was the most widely practiced reconstruct strategy in varieties of option. For pancreaticojejunostomy and pancreaticogastrostomy, the rate of this complication was 12.3% and 11.1%,respectively. In recent years, a new procedure, bindingup pancreaticoduodenectomy, had shown a promise and excellent results in prevention of pancreatic fistula, the rate of fistula was 0 for consecutive 100 cases after pancreaticoduodenectomy.ConclusionBindingup pancreaticojejunostomy have a definite effect to avoid pancreatic fistula and be worthy of being recommended
From May 1982 to September 1994, 13 cases patients with acute suppurative thyroiditis were treated. Their ages ranged from 6 to 39 years with a mean of 13. 9 years (nine of them were children). In this group, 8 cases had a pre-existing thyroid mass. Correct diagnosis were made preoperatively in 11 cases and the other two were misdiagnosed before operation. Eleven patients underwent incision and drainge, amony them 6 cases had been followed up with no recurrence. Based on this result and re-viewing literatures, the author draw the conclusion that acute suppurative thyoiditis is related with fistula of pyriform fossa, incision and drainage must be carried out and if there is fistula present, fistulectomy should be performed.
