  • When to treat with vitrectomy and the outcomes of open-globe injured eyes

    Open-globe injuries (OGI) result in complicated and diverse conditions with different mechanisms and anatomical locations, which lead to completely different outcomes based on when to perform pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) after trauma. The PPV operation time points are generally divided into early (0 - 3 days), delayed (4 - 14 days), and late (> 2 weeks). There are still some controversies about the PPV time points after OGI. Injuries with intraocular foreign bodies or high risk of infection usually need early surgery to reduce the occurrence of endophthalmitis. However corneal edema and vitreous hemorrhage can increase the difficulties for early diagnosis and surgery. If there is choroidal hemorrhage or severe trauma in the back part of the eye, delayed intervention can allow the blood clots to be liquefied and removed easily. But there is higher incidence of postoperative complications. Late surgery can reduce the difficulty of PPV, but the increased incidence of proliferative vitreoretinopathy may lead to severe retinal traction, tears and postoperative scar formation.

  • Microincision vitrectomy surgery and intravitreal injection of ranibizumab to treat severe proliferative diabetic retinopathy

    ObjectiveTo observe the clinical effect of microincision vitreoretinal surgery (VRS) assisted with intravitreal injection of ranibizumab (IVR) in severe proliferative diabetic retinopathy (PDR) treatment. MethodsThis is a prospective non-randomized controlled clinical study. A total of 60 patients (70 eyes) with severe PDR diagnosed were enrolled and divided into IVR group (31 patients, 35 eyes) and control group (29 patients, 35 eyes). IVR group patients received an intravitreal injection of 0.05 ml ranibizumab solution (10 mg/ml) first, and 3 or 4 days later they received 23G microincision VRS. Control group patients only received 23G microincision VRS. The follow-up time was 3 to 12 months with an average of (4.5±1.8) months. The logarithm of the minimal angle of resolution (logMAR) best corrected visual acuity (BCVA), intraocular pressure, the central retinal thickness (CRT) and retinal reattachment, and the incidence of postoperative complications were comparatively analyzed. ResultsThere was no topical and systemic adverse reactions associated with the drug after injection in IVR group. The incidence of post-operative vitreous hemorrhage (VH) in IVR group and control group was 8.6% and 28.6% at 1 week after surgery, 0.0% and 17.1% at 1 month after surgery, 0.0% and 8.6% at 3 month after surgery respectively. The differences were statistically significant for 1 week (χ2=4.63, P < 0.05) and 1 month (χ2=4.56, P < 0.05), but was not statistically significant for 3 months (χ2=0.24, P > 0.05). The mean post-operative logMAR BCVA of IVR group (0.81±0.40) and control group (1.05±0.42) have all improved than their pre-operative BCVA, the difference was statistically significant (t=12.78, 4.39; P < 0.05). The mean logMAR BCVA of IVR group is higher than BCVA of control group, the difference was statistically significant (t=-2.36, P < 0.05). The average post-operative CRT in IVR group was thinner than that of control group, the difference was statistically significant (t=-2.53, P < 0.05). The incidence of a transient high intraocular pressure in IVR group (14.3%) was lower than that in control group (34.3%), the difference was statistically significant (t=4.79, P < 0.05). The incidence of retinal reattachment (t=0.35), epiretinal membrane (χ2=0.97), neovascular glaucoma (χ2=0.51) was no difference between these two groups (P > 0.05). ConclusionThe minimally invasive VRS assisted by IVR treatment for severe PDR can effectively prevent postoperative VH, reduce CRT and improve visual acuity.

  • The clinical application of tubeless video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery in the treatment of spontaneous pneumothorax

    ObjectiveTo explore the safety, feasibility and superiority of tubeless video-assisted thoracoscopic surgery (VATS) in the treatment of spontaneous pneumothorax.MethodsWe retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 38 patients with primary spontaneous pneumothorax treated in our hospital from February 2017 to July 2018. Tubeless bullectomy was performed in 18 patients, including 11 males and 7 females, aged 14.3±1.5 years. Twenty patients underwent conventional thoracoscopic bullae resection, including 12 males and 8 females, aged 14.5±1.7 years. The clinical effectiveness was compared.ResultsAll the 38 patients completed the operation successfully under the single-port thoracoscopy, without the transfer of intubation and secondary surgery. Operation time (67.3±13.3 min vs. 81.4±13.4 min, P=0.002), preoperative anesthesia time (14.2±2.6 min vs. 18.5±2.6 min, P=0.000), postoperative anesthesia recovery time (17.1±2.6 min vs. 26.5±5.0 min, P=0.000), visual simulation score of postoperative pain (2.3±0.9 vs. 5.2±1.0, P=0.000), postoperative activity time (1.3±0.4 d vs. 2.9±0.6 d, P=0.000), postoperative hospitalization time (2.9±0.8 d vs. 5.6±1.3 d, P=0.000), hospitalization cost (35.0±6.0 kyuan vs. 59.0±10.0 kyuan, P=0.000) were better in the control group. There was no significant difference in intraoperative blood loss (73.2±4.6 mL vs. 73.9±4.1 mL) and postoperative lung revascularization time (29.3±2.4 h vs. 29.7±2.5 h) between the two groups (P>0.05).ConclusionCompared with traditional thoracoscopic bullectomy, tubeless VATS technique is safe and reliable in the treatment of spontaneous pneumothorax, with mild pain and quick recovery, in line with the concept of fast track surgery and worthy of clinical promotion.

  • Perioperative outcomes of uniportal versus three-port video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy for 2 112 lung cancer patients: A propensity score matching study

    Objective To analyze the perioperative outcomes of uniportal thoracoscopic lobectomy compared with three-port thoracoscopic lobectomy. Methods Data were extracted from the Western China Lung Cancer Database, a prospectively maintained database at the Department of Thoracic Surgery, West China Hospital, Sichuan University. Perioperative outcomes of the patients who underwent uniportal or three-port thoracoscopic lobectomy for lung cancer during January 2014 through April 2021 were analyzed by using propensity score matching. Altogether 5 817 lung cancer patients were enrolled who underwent thoracoscopic lobectomy (uniportal: 530 patients; three-port: 5 287 patients). After matching, 529 patients of uniportal and 1 583 patients of three-port were included. There were 529 patients with 320 males and 209 females at median age of 58 (51, 65) years in the uniportal group and 1 583 patients with 915 males and 668 females at median age of 58 (51, 65) years in the three-port group. Results Uniportal thoracoscopic lobectomy was associated with less intraoperative blood loss (20 mL vs. 30 mL, P<0.001), longer operative time (115 min vs. 105 min, P<0.001) than three-port thoracoscopic lobectomy. No significant difference was found between the two groups regarding the number of lymph node dissected, rate of conversion to thoracotomy, incidence of postoperative complication, postoperative pain score within 3 postoperative days, length of hospital stay, or hospitalization expenses. Conclusion Uniportal video-assisted thoracoscopic lobectomy is safe and effective, and the overall perioperative outcomes are comparable between uniportal and three-port strategies, although the two groups show differences in intraoperative blood loss.
