Our study aimed to determine the hospital frequency of hemorrhoidal disease, to identify the contributing factors, describe the clinical and therapeutic aspects and analyze the surgical consequences. We collected 73 patients with an average age of 37.8 years (range: 19 years and 77 years) with a sex ratio of 2.5 in favor of men. We operated on 49 patients or 67.1% of cases. 71.2% of our patients were married and lived in Bamako. Schoolchildren and middle managers made up 39.8% of cases. 82.2% of patients were seen in ordinary consultation and 69.9% complained of progressive anal pain in 66.7% of cases. This pain was triggered by defecation in 88.2% of our patients. The contributing factors were dominated by constipation (53.4%), working in a seated position (41.1%) and a sedentary lifestyle (16.4%) of cases. Stage IV external hemorrhoids and hemorrhoidal thrombosis represented 53.8% of surgical indications. The most used surgical technique was that of Milligan-Morgan, i.e. 51.9% of cases and 45.2% of patients treated medically received a combination of transit regulator, venotonics and analgesics. The surgical aftermath was marked by hemorrhage (3 cases), delayed healing (5 cases), urinary retention (1 case) and scarring anal stenosis (1 case). The morbidity rate was 5.48% of cases and a zero mortality rate. The average length of hospitalization was 2 days with extremes of 1 and 5 days.展开更多

The aim of this work was to identify the typology and management of abdominal trauma cases in our surgery department. Overall, abdominal trauma represented 3.54% (62/1751) of all surgeries during the study period. Among the 62 cases, men accounted for 59 and women for 3. The sex ratio was 19.67. The mean age was 24 ± 15 years. Road accidents were the most represented with 43.5% of cases. The couple of signs, hypovolemic shock and abdominal pain and decrease on blood pressure were the prominent clinical symptoms with 100.0%, and 50.0% of cases, respectively. Abdominal ultrasound and abdominal x-ray without contrast were performed in 67.0% and 18.0% of cases, respectively. Abdominal trauma was divided into two entities: contusion 68% and wounds 32%. Medical treatment was sufficient in 23.00% of cases. Laparotomy as a surgical approach was performed in 77.0% of cases. Local hemostasis plus drainage (27.08%), splenectomy (25.00%), suture (14.58%), hemostasis by tamponade (8.33%) and colostomy (2.08%) were undertaken as surgical procedures when it came to deal with contusions. Debridement of wounds plus suture and hemostasis by tamponade was performed in 18.73% and 4.16 cases, respectively. The most observed lesions were those of the spleen with 27.42% and those of the small bowel with 24.19%. The postoperative follow-up was straightforward in 83.33% of cases. The overall mortality was 4.17%.展开更多

Methodology: This was a retrospective, descriptive study lasting two years (January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2022), carried out in the general surgery and gyneco-obstetrics departments of the Ignace Deen national hospital, Conakry University Hospital. We included all patients with a ruptured ectopic pregnancy who received surgical treatment during the study period. Results: We collected 13,524 cases of surgical interventions in the two services, among them, we recorded 89 cases or 0.66% GEUR. The average age of the patients was 24.26 years. Brides were the most represented with 80.96% of cases. Women practicing a liberal profession were 51.69% (n = 46) and housewives 26.97% (n = 24). Clinically, amenorrhea was noted in all patients, i.e. 100%, abdominal-pelvic pain in 95.2% (n = 85) of cases, metrorrhagia in 94.08% (n = 84), abdominal-pelvic sensitivity in 97.44% (n = 87) of cases and anemia in 85.39% of cases. The GEUR was ampullary in 69.66% (n = 62) cases. Salpingectomy was performed in 90.72% (n = 81). The surgical outcomes were satisfactory in 98.87% (n = 88) of cases. We recorded one case of surgical site infection. We have not recorded any deaths. The average length of hospitalization was 4 days. Conclusion: GEUR is relatively high in our context. A good understanding of the prognostic factors of GEUR, awareness and family planning could reduce GEUR.展开更多

Our objectives were to determine the hospital frequency, the risk factors, the involved germs as well as the cost generated by the operating site infections. Method: Our three months prospective survey run from September the 1st to November the 30th 2013 has included all department patients being operated on and hospitalized. The criteria have been set by CDC d’Atlanta. Results: 374 files were involved, among them 229 (61.2%) were emergencies and 145 (38.8%) were scheduled. The average age was 41 (extremes 7 and 95 standard deviation 17.46), the sex ratio 1.67. The infective risk according to Altmeier has found 17.5% type 1, 25.1% type 2, 11.2% type 3 and 46.3% type 4;according to NNISS, 96 (25.7) were NNISS 0;94 (51.9%) NNISS 1;80 (21.4%) NNISS 2;and 4 (1.1%) NNISS. In the Altmeier class I have not got antibiotic before infection signs appearances. Our overall rate of operating site infections was 7.9% (29 cases), with 24 (82.8%) emergency cases. According to Altmeier’s class of infective risk, the rate of operating site infections was 1.54% making 1 out of 65 type I patients;4.3% making 4 out of 93 type II patients;11.9% making 5 out of 42 type III patients;10.9% making 19 out of 174 type IV patients. According to NNISS, the infective risk has been assessed and was 2.08% for score 0, we have got 8.25% score 1, and 12.5% for score 2, and 25% for score 3. The bacteriology has been dominated by Escherichia colii(51.7), Proteus mirabilisi(13.8), and Klebsiella pneumoniaei(10.34). The germs have been resistant to the combination Amoxicillin-clavulanic Acid between 50% and 87% of cases. The most active antibiotics on the germs have been Cephalosporin, Polypeptides, and aminoglycosides. The hospital stay has been delayed to 12 days on average by operating site infections, making 2.5 times greater than those uninfected. The infection has increased the cost of management around 600 Euro.展开更多

The objectives of this work were to study post-operative complications in the general surgery department of the Cs ref of commune I in Mali, to determine the frequency of post-operative complications, to identify the factors of occurrence, to describe the clinical aspects, diagnostic and therapeutic in order to assess the additional cost linked to post-operative complications. This study was prospective, carried out in the general surgery department on 300 cases of surgical interventions. It covered all patients aged at least 15 years, operated on and hospitalized or not, and who presented complications during the 30 days postoperatively. Patients under the age of 15 were not included (our general surgery department is not a pediatric surgery department). We collected 300 patients among whom 199 (66.33%) were men and 101 (33.66%) women, i.e. a sex ratio = 1.9. The average age was 38 years with extremes of 15 and 87 years. The main initial diagnoses were: acute appendicitis, peritonitis, occlusions, wall hernias, hemorrhoids, uterine prolapse, uterine myomas, ovarian cysts and acute cholecystitis. Emergencies represented 43% (N = 129) of interventions with 6.98% post-operative complications (POC). Postoperative complications were dominated by surgical site infections, 75% of cases (N = 20), wall hemorrhage 5% (N = 1), testicular necrosis 5% (N = 1) and testicular calcification 5% (N = 1), wire rejection 5% (N = 1) and death 5% (N = 1). The management of postoperative complications was surgical in 95% and medical in 100%. Their occurrence extended the hospital stay by 3.65 days and increased the average cost of care by 60541.85 CFA francs. The mortality index lowered by efficient management of complications (IMAGE) calculated in relation to deaths was 95% of cases. Anemia, ASA score ≥ III, Alteimeir II and IV classes, duration of surgery and post-operative hospitalization were factors contributing to post-operative complications.展开更多

In sub-Saharan Africa, few writings are interested in this pathology, which remains common and constitutes a public health problem in highly endemic countries [1] [2]. We report the observation of a 61-year-old hypertensive patient owner of a dog admitted for abdominal pain without abdominal mass. In whom ultrasound and computed tomography have made it possible to make the diagnosis of hydatid cyst of the liver (KHF). The patient underwent surgery. We performed an associated conservative treatment post-operative albendazole. The post-operative follow-up was simple. In our patient the evolution was good after a setback of more than 2 months. Through this observation and a review of the literature, we insist on the contribution of imaging in diagnosis and treatment, which is essentially surgical.展开更多

It occurs in a segment of the digestive tract located between the pylorus and the colorectal junction. We report an observational study which aims to describe the epidemiological, clinical and therapeutic aspects of small bowel obstruction. This study was carried out in the General Surgery Department of H<span style="white-space:nowrap;">ô</span>pital Sominé DOLO de Mopti from October 1, 2016 to October 1, 2018. A total of 114 patients were recorded for whom the diagnosis was related to an occlusion. The median age was 37 years with extremes ranging from 6 months to 90 years. Male sex was predominant with a sex-ratio of 1.8. The frequency of small bowel occlusions over all occlusions was 74.03%. The most encountered clinical signs were as followed: abdominal pain (100%), vomiting (88.6%), cessation of materials and gas (79.9%) and meteorism (62.3%). All patients underwent medical imaging, the most common of which was an abdomen without preparation X-ray (AWP). On the etiological level, the main causes found postoperatively were: flanges and adhesion (55.2%), strangulated hernias (28.0%), acute intussusception (6.1%), small bowel volvulus (3.5%) and small bowel tumor (1.6%). Releasing the bridles was the most common surgery process (28.0%). The morbidity of the immediate follow-up was (13.1%) and the mortality was (7.0%). This high mortality is due to ignorance of the signs of seriousness and the socio-cultural barrier (decision of the patriarch to agree to a surgical intervention), the late use of hospital facility and the limited financial capability of the patients.展开更多

This work aimed to study inguinal hernia in children in the general surgery department of the Reference Health Center of Commune I of the Bamako District;to determine the frequency of inguinal hernia;describe the epidemiological, clinical and therapeutic aspects of inguinal hernias and in order to evaluate the cost of treatment. This was a prospective study from April 2017 to March 2018 during which 60 children with an inguinal hernia were collected. Inguinal hernias in children represented 9.23% of patients operated on in the department. The average age was 59.23 months with extremes of one month and 180 months and a standard deviation of 49.23 years. The male sex was dominant with a sex ratio equal to 9:1. The notion of prematurity was found in 11.7% and was associated with a testicle not in place in 1.7% of cases. 41.7% of our patients were referred by a doctor and 66.7% of patients presented with painless, intermittent inguino-scrotal swelling (83.3% of cases). The hernia was discovered before one week of life in 50% of cases. Inguinal swelling was absent in 11.7% but observed intraoperatively. The inguinal hernia was unilateral in 91.7% of cases and 70% of hernias were discovered by the parents during pushing efforts. The inguinal hernia was located on the right in 61.7% of cases. The hernia swelling was soft, painless, impulsive and reducible in 78.3% of cases. The swelling was inguino-scrotal in 58.3% of cases. The hernia was simple in 95% of patients and hernial strangulation was observed in 3 cases or 5% of cases. 98.3% of patients were ASA I. The treatment was carried out openly in all our patients including closure of the vaginal peritoneal canal in 95% of cases under general anesthesia in 98.3% of cases. The morbidity rate was 8.4% (surgical site infection: 6.7% of cases and hematoma: 1.7%). The immediate consequences were simple in 96.6% of cases. No cases of recurrence occurred during the 6 months after the intervention. The average cost of care was estimated at 69,743 FCFA.展开更多

Materials and Methods: This was a retrospective descriptive study, conducted over a period of five (05) years from January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2022, in the general surgery department of Ignace Deen Hospital, CHU Conakry. We included in our study all patient records in whom vulvectomy was performed. Results: We recorded 15 cases of vulvectomy out of 453 perineal surgeries, i.e. 3.31%, with a mean age of 43.56 years and extremes of 35 and 69 years. Vulvar cancer was the most common diagnosis (46.67%), followed by Buschke-Lowenstein (33.33%) and anal canal cancer extending to the vulva (20%). Six patients had undergone biopsy (40%). Vulvectomy with lymph node dissection was performed in only 9 patients (60%), and all surgical specimens were sent to anatomical pathology (100%). Conclusion: Vulvectomy is a surgical technique most often indicated for the treatment of vulvar cancer.展开更多

The aim was to describe the indications and prognostic factors for intestinal resections at the surgical department of Kankan Regional Hospital. Patients and Methods: This was a retrospective descriptive study covering the files of patients who had undergone intestinal resections in the surgery department of the Kankan regional hospital over a period of 4 years from 1st January 2019 to December 31, 2022. Results: We collected 164 cases of intestinal resection representing 4.19% of all surgical procedures. (N = 3909). The average age of our patients was 37.78 years with extremes of 1 and 90 years. The male gender was predominant (64.6%) and the sex ratio was 1.8. The majority of patients consulted after 72 hours. Acute intestinal obstruction was the pathology motivating the most intestinal resection 42.90% followed by acute peritonitis 33%, digestive fistula 4.3%, tumors 3.6% and wounds 2.4%. Intestinal necrosis with 91 cases (56.5%) constituted the first indication for resection in our study followed by intestinal perforations 41 cases (24.9%). We performed an anastomotic resection of the small intestine in 70 cases (42.9%), an ileostomy in 4 cases (2.4%), a right hemi colectomy in 26 cases (15.9%), a left hemi colectomy in 2 cases (1.2%), segmental colectomy plus immediate anastomosis in 57 cases (34.2%) and 5 cases of colostomy. We recorded 48 deaths (29.3%). Conclusion: Intestinal resection is a common procedure in our context. These indications are multiple. An improvement in the prognosis should be achieved by reducing the diagnostic and treatment time associated with the training of surgical staff.展开更多

They are on guard duty day and night. To carry out this work we have set ourselves the following objectives: Study digestive surgical emergencies in the general surgery department of the Cs ref CI of Bamako;Determine the frequency of digestive surgical emergencies;Describe the clinical and therapeutic aspects, and Analyze the results of treatment. From January 2016 to December 2016, the general surgery department of the Cs ref CI of Bamako carried out 200 digestive surgical emergencies whose files were usable;119 men and 81 women, a sex ratio of 1.5. The average age was 32.67 years;66% medical evacuation. Abdominal pain was the main reason for consultation. In the majority of cases, the physical examination made it possible to make the diagnosis. Faced with certain doubtful cases, we requested paraclinical examinations (ultrasound, ASP and the rhesus group). The main etiology was acute appendicitis with 59% of cases. The frequency of digestive surgical emergencies was 35.1% of all activities of the general surgery department of the Cs ref CI of Bamako. The postoperative course was complicated in 4% of cases. Surgical site infections were the most common postoperative complications, accounting for 3% of our patients. One death was noted, i.e. 0.5% of our sample. Acute peritonitis was the cause of death in 100% of cases.展开更多
The development of pancreatic surgery in China has progressed remarkably over 7 decades.China initiated its pancreatic surgery journey in the 1950s,marked by the first pancreaticoduodenectomy performed by Zeng Xianjiu...The development of pancreatic surgery in China has progressed remarkably over 7 decades.China initiated its pancreatic surgery journey in the 1950s,marked by the first pancreaticoduodenectomy performed by Zeng Xianjiu in 1951.Early progress was hindered by technological limitations and fragmented practices,but the establishment of academic platforms such as the National Pancreatic Disease Symposia in the 1980s catalyzed standardized research and interdisciplinary collaboration.In 2006,Zhang Shengdao spearheaded China’s first Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Severe Acute Pancreatitis.The 21st century has seen remarkable progress in pancreatic surgery,marked by the China-specific treatment guidelines,technological breakthroughs in laparoscopic and robotic surgical systems,and the increasing centralization of pancreatic surgery in high-volume medical centers.These synergistic advancements have collectively propelled a paradigm shift in contemporary cancer care.By 2022,China Pancreas Data Center reported a postoperative mortality rate of 0.4% and 3-year survival rates of 43% for resected pancreatic cancer,rivaling global benchmarks.China has also emerged as a leader in minimally invasive pancreatic surgery,with advancements in laparoscopic and robotic pancreatic surgery.Academic growth paralleled clinical progress:the Chinese Pancreatic Association,established in 2022,fosters global collaboration,evidenced by its 2024 annual conference attracting over 10,000 participants.Through technological innovation,centralized care models,and international partnerships,China continues to redefine its role in advancing pancreatic surgery.展开更多
文摘This work was a retrospective prospective study carried out in the general surgery department of the Cs ref of commune I from January 2009 to December 2012. Our study aimed to determine the hospital frequency of hemorrhoidal disease, to identify the contributing factors, describe the clinical and therapeutic aspects and analyze the surgical consequences. We collected 73 patients with an average age of 37.8 years (range: 19 years and 77 years) with a sex ratio of 2.5 in favor of men. We operated on 49 patients or 67.1% of cases. 71.2% of our patients were married and lived in Bamako. Schoolchildren and middle managers made up 39.8% of cases. 82.2% of patients were seen in ordinary consultation and 69.9% complained of progressive anal pain in 66.7% of cases. This pain was triggered by defecation in 88.2% of our patients. The contributing factors were dominated by constipation (53.4%), working in a seated position (41.1%) and a sedentary lifestyle (16.4%) of cases. Stage IV external hemorrhoids and hemorrhoidal thrombosis represented 53.8% of surgical indications. The most used surgical technique was that of Milligan-Morgan, i.e. 51.9% of cases and 45.2% of patients treated medically received a combination of transit regulator, venotonics and analgesics. The surgical aftermath was marked by hemorrhage (3 cases), delayed healing (5 cases), urinary retention (1 case) and scarring anal stenosis (1 case). The morbidity rate was 5.48% of cases and a zero mortality rate. The average length of hospitalization was 2 days with extremes of 1 and 5 days.
文摘We undertook a prospective and descriptive observational study on abdominal trauma from February 1, 2016 to August 31, 2017. The aim of this work was to identify the typology and management of abdominal trauma cases in our surgery department. Overall, abdominal trauma represented 3.54% (62/1751) of all surgeries during the study period. Among the 62 cases, men accounted for 59 and women for 3. The sex ratio was 19.67. The mean age was 24 ± 15 years. Road accidents were the most represented with 43.5% of cases. The couple of signs, hypovolemic shock and abdominal pain and decrease on blood pressure were the prominent clinical symptoms with 100.0%, and 50.0% of cases, respectively. Abdominal ultrasound and abdominal x-ray without contrast were performed in 67.0% and 18.0% of cases, respectively. Abdominal trauma was divided into two entities: contusion 68% and wounds 32%. Medical treatment was sufficient in 23.00% of cases. Laparotomy as a surgical approach was performed in 77.0% of cases. Local hemostasis plus drainage (27.08%), splenectomy (25.00%), suture (14.58%), hemostasis by tamponade (8.33%) and colostomy (2.08%) were undertaken as surgical procedures when it came to deal with contusions. Debridement of wounds plus suture and hemostasis by tamponade was performed in 18.73% and 4.16 cases, respectively. The most observed lesions were those of the spleen with 27.42% and those of the small bowel with 24.19%. The postoperative follow-up was straightforward in 83.33% of cases. The overall mortality was 4.17%.

文摘BACKGROUND Laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy(LSG)can lead to complete resolution of hypertension in most patients with obesity within one year.However,the preoperative factors related to this resolution are still unclear.AIM To clarify the impact of relevant factors,particularly perirenal fat,on postoperative hypertension resolution.METHODS In this retrospective single-center study,a total of 138 patients with obesity and hypertension were included,all of whom underwent LSG in the hospital and were followed up for one year.Multivariate logistic regression models were used to identify independent risk factors for postoperative hypertension resolution.Generalized additive models were employed to clarify the nonlinear relationships between these factors and hypertension resolution,and their predictive values were compared using fivefold cross-validation.RESULTS After LSG,107 patients(77.5%)experienced hypertension resolution,while 31 patients(22.5%)did not achieve resolution.Both the preoperative perirenal fat area(PrFA)and perirenal fat thickness were independent risk factors for postoperative hypertension resolution(P<0.001 vs P=0.002).These factors are curvilinearly correlated with the hypertension resolution rate,but PrFA has a better predictive value than perirenal fat thickness dose(area under the curve=0.846 vs 0.809).Compared with those with PrFA≥18 cm2,patients with PrFA<18 cm2 had a higher hypertension resolution rate[87%vs 68.1%;odds ratio(95%confidence interval)=3.513(1.367-9.902),P=0.012].CONCLUSION PrFA is a preoperative predictor of postoperative hypertension resolution.It is curvilinearly associated with the resolution rate,and patients with PrFA<18 cm²have better hypertension resolution outcomes after LSG.
文摘Introduction: The aim of this study was to contribute to improving the quality of GEUR management in the general surgery department and in the maternity ward of the Ignace Deen national hospital, Conakry University Hospital. Methodology: This was a retrospective, descriptive study lasting two years (January 1, 2020 to December 31, 2022), carried out in the general surgery and gyneco-obstetrics departments of the Ignace Deen national hospital, Conakry University Hospital. We included all patients with a ruptured ectopic pregnancy who received surgical treatment during the study period. Results: We collected 13,524 cases of surgical interventions in the two services, among them, we recorded 89 cases or 0.66% GEUR. The average age of the patients was 24.26 years. Brides were the most represented with 80.96% of cases. Women practicing a liberal profession were 51.69% (n = 46) and housewives 26.97% (n = 24). Clinically, amenorrhea was noted in all patients, i.e. 100%, abdominal-pelvic pain in 95.2% (n = 85) of cases, metrorrhagia in 94.08% (n = 84), abdominal-pelvic sensitivity in 97.44% (n = 87) of cases and anemia in 85.39% of cases. The GEUR was ampullary in 69.66% (n = 62) cases. Salpingectomy was performed in 90.72% (n = 81). The surgical outcomes were satisfactory in 98.87% (n = 88) of cases. We recorded one case of surgical site infection. We have not recorded any deaths. The average length of hospitalization was 4 days. Conclusion: GEUR is relatively high in our context. A good understanding of the prognostic factors of GEUR, awareness and family planning could reduce GEUR.
文摘The operating site infections constitute the major postoperative issue in surgery. Our objectives were to determine the hospital frequency, the risk factors, the involved germs as well as the cost generated by the operating site infections. Method: Our three months prospective survey run from September the 1st to November the 30th 2013 has included all department patients being operated on and hospitalized. The criteria have been set by CDC d’Atlanta. Results: 374 files were involved, among them 229 (61.2%) were emergencies and 145 (38.8%) were scheduled. The average age was 41 (extremes 7 and 95 standard deviation 17.46), the sex ratio 1.67. The infective risk according to Altmeier has found 17.5% type 1, 25.1% type 2, 11.2% type 3 and 46.3% type 4;according to NNISS, 96 (25.7) were NNISS 0;94 (51.9%) NNISS 1;80 (21.4%) NNISS 2;and 4 (1.1%) NNISS. In the Altmeier class I have not got antibiotic before infection signs appearances. Our overall rate of operating site infections was 7.9% (29 cases), with 24 (82.8%) emergency cases. According to Altmeier’s class of infective risk, the rate of operating site infections was 1.54% making 1 out of 65 type I patients;4.3% making 4 out of 93 type II patients;11.9% making 5 out of 42 type III patients;10.9% making 19 out of 174 type IV patients. According to NNISS, the infective risk has been assessed and was 2.08% for score 0, we have got 8.25% score 1, and 12.5% for score 2, and 25% for score 3. The bacteriology has been dominated by Escherichia colii(51.7), Proteus mirabilisi(13.8), and Klebsiella pneumoniaei(10.34). The germs have been resistant to the combination Amoxicillin-clavulanic Acid between 50% and 87% of cases. The most active antibiotics on the germs have been Cephalosporin, Polypeptides, and aminoglycosides. The hospital stay has been delayed to 12 days on average by operating site infections, making 2.5 times greater than those uninfected. The infection has increased the cost of management around 600 Euro.

文摘It is well known that aluminum and copper exhibit structural phase transformations in quasi-static and dynamic measurements,including shock wave loading.However,the dependence of phase transformations in a wide range of crystallographic directions of shock loading has not been revealed.In this work,we calculated the shock Hugoniot for aluminum and copper in different crystallographic directions([100],[110],[111],[112],[102],[114],[123],[134],[221]and[401])of shock compression using molecular dynamics(MD)simulations.The results showed a high pressure(>160 GPa for Cu and>40 GPa for Al)of the FCC-to-BCC transition.In copper,different characteristics of the phase transition are observed depending on the loading direction with the[100]compression direction being the weakest.The FCC-to-BCC transition for copper is in the range of 150–220 GPa,which is consistent with the existing experimental data.Due to the high transition pressure,the BCC phase transition in copper competes with melting.In aluminum,the FCC-to-BCC transition is observed for all studied directions at pressures between 40 and 50 GPa far beyond the melting.In all considered cases we observe the coexistence of HCP and BCC phases during the FCC-to-BCC transition,which is consistent with the experimental data and atomistic calculations;this HCP phase forms in the course of accompanying plastic deformation with dislocation activity in the parent FCC phase.The plasticity incipience is also anisotropic in bothmetals,which is due to the difference in the projections of stress on the slip plane for different orientations of the FCC crystal.MD modeling results demonstrate a strong dependence of the FCC-to-BCC transition on the crystallographic direction,in which the material is loaded in the copper crystals.However,MD simulations data can only be obtained for specific points in the stereographic direction space;therefore,for more comprehensive understanding of the phase transition process,a feed-forward neural network was trained using MD modeling data.The trained machine learning model allowed us to construct continuous stereographic maps of phase transitions as a function of stress in the shock-compressed state of metal.Due to appearance and growth of multiple centers of new phase,the FCC-to-BCC transition leads to formation of a polycrystalline structure from the parent single crystal.

文摘Previous investigations into gut microbiota dysbiosis in patients with Parkinson’s disease have relied on 16S rRNA amplicon sequencing and assembly-free metagenomic approaches.However,there is an urgent need to study the function of the gut microbiome at the genome level using metagenome-assembled genomes.Here,we conducted single-sample metagenomic binning analysis using shotgun metagenomic sequencing data and retrieved 2837 metagenome-assembled genomes to explore the gut microbiota profile at the genome level.Reconstructing microbial genomes from metagenomic sequences greatly enriched the diversity and number of microbial genomes,especially those of uncultivable strains.By integrating the analysis of metagenome-assembled genomes with clinical parameters,we observed higherα-diversity indexes and a very different composition of microbial communities in patients with Parkinson’s disease.We also identified microbial species and metagenome-assembled genomes that were significantly associated with clinical characteristics,including disease severity,medication,motor complications,and non-motor symptoms.The genes of Parkinson’s disease severity-associated metagenome-assembled genomes were distributed across multiple pathways,such as carbon metabolism,phosphonate metabolism,carbohydrate metabolism,amino acid metabolism,fatty acid metabolism,bile acid metabolism,metabolism of cofactors and vitamins,neuroprotective molecules,immunogenic components,toxic metabolites,translation,and bacterial secretion.Our work provides a comprehensive resource for investigating the gut microbiota-Parkinson’s disease relationship at the genome level,which may enhance our comprehension of the underlying mechanisms of this disease.
文摘Postoperative complications represent important indicators for the quality of surgical care. The objectives of this work were to study post-operative complications in the general surgery department of the Cs ref of commune I in Mali, to determine the frequency of post-operative complications, to identify the factors of occurrence, to describe the clinical aspects, diagnostic and therapeutic in order to assess the additional cost linked to post-operative complications. This study was prospective, carried out in the general surgery department on 300 cases of surgical interventions. It covered all patients aged at least 15 years, operated on and hospitalized or not, and who presented complications during the 30 days postoperatively. Patients under the age of 15 were not included (our general surgery department is not a pediatric surgery department). We collected 300 patients among whom 199 (66.33%) were men and 101 (33.66%) women, i.e. a sex ratio = 1.9. The average age was 38 years with extremes of 15 and 87 years. The main initial diagnoses were: acute appendicitis, peritonitis, occlusions, wall hernias, hemorrhoids, uterine prolapse, uterine myomas, ovarian cysts and acute cholecystitis. Emergencies represented 43% (N = 129) of interventions with 6.98% post-operative complications (POC). Postoperative complications were dominated by surgical site infections, 75% of cases (N = 20), wall hemorrhage 5% (N = 1), testicular necrosis 5% (N = 1) and testicular calcification 5% (N = 1), wire rejection 5% (N = 1) and death 5% (N = 1). The management of postoperative complications was surgical in 95% and medical in 100%. Their occurrence extended the hospital stay by 3.65 days and increased the average cost of care by 60541.85 CFA francs. The mortality index lowered by efficient management of complications (IMAGE) calculated in relation to deaths was 95% of cases. Anemia, ASA score ≥ III, Alteimeir II and IV classes, duration of surgery and post-operative hospitalization were factors contributing to post-operative complications.
文摘Within contemporary healthcare systems, professional identity among specialized nurses serves as a pivotal intrinsic factor influencing the development of their core competencies. This review synthesizes existing research, revealing that professional identity positively impacts the development of core competencies through multiple pathways, including psychological drive, behavioral facilitation, teamwork, and career stability. Building on this analysis, this paper proposes systematic enhancement strategies from four dimensions: education and training, organizational environment, cultural development, and individual growth, aiming to provide a reference for nursing practice and professional development.
文摘Based on the Bismuth-Corlette classification of hilar cholangiocarcinoma,the patients with types I,II,and III can undergo radical resection in the absence of extensive intrahepatic metastasis and vascular invasion[1].Depending on the scope of tumor invasion in bile duct,a combined resection of parts of the liver,hepatic ducts,common bile ducts,regional lymph nodes,and even parts of the duodenum and pancreas is necessary,along with biliary and gastrointestinal reconstructions[2].The surgical plan is complex,involving a large resection area and significant trauma.In recent years,laparoscopic or robot assisted radical resection of hilar cholangiocarcinoma has been applied clinically[3,4].With the advanced laparoscopic equipment,many patients undergo hepatopancreatoduodenectomy successfully[5].The limitations of traditional laparoscopic techniques restrict their wide application in clinical practice.However,the Da Vinci robot has been widely applied due to its clear field of vision and flexible manipulation.However,its utilization in hepato-pancreatoduodenectomy for hilar cholangiocarcinoma is still relatively rare.Here,we report a case with hilar cholangiocarcinoma at clinical stage IIIb who underwent robot-assisted hepato-pancreatoduodenectomy.

文摘Background:Laparoscopic anatomic hepatectomy of segment 7(LAH-S7)is a challenging surgery.In this study we aimed to investigate surgical and oncological outcomes of various approaches of LAH-S7 in patients with hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC).A particular focus was placed on identifying the Glissonean pedicle of segment 7(G7)and the intersegmental plane.Given the scarcity of comprehensive reviews or comparative studies on clinical outcomes,we also sought to analyze the experiences and advantages associated with different approaches in relation to the anatomic variations of G7.Methods:The clinical data of 124 patients who underwent LAH-S7 for HCC across seven tertiary referral medical centers in China were retrospectively analyzed.Three surgical approaches were categorized based on the procedures used for G7 identification:the indocyanine green(ICG)fluorescence positive staining approach(IFPA),the Glissonean approach(GA),and the hepatic vein-guided approach(HVGA).Subsequently,the postoperative short-term results and oncological outcomes of the three different approaches were compared.Results:The distribution of surgical approaches among the patients was as follows:IFPA in 16(12.9%),GA in 62(50.0%),and HVGA in 46(37.1%)patients.Complications were observed in 27(21.8%)patients.The 1-,3-,and 5-year overall survival(OS)rates were 99.1%,89.2%,and 84.7%,respectively.The 1-,3-,and 5-year recurrence-free survival(RFS)rates were 99.0%,84.7%,and 69.3%,respectively.The OS and RFS rates were comparable across the three approaches.Conclusions:Following a standardized surgical procedure,LAH-S7 is demonstrated to be safe and yields favorable oncological outcomes.Surgeons performing LAH-S7 should select the appropriate surgical approach based on the anatomical characteristics and variations of G7.
文摘Hydatid cyst of the liver (KHF) is a parasitic condition caused by the development of the larval form of the dog tapenia Echinococcus granulosus. In sub-Saharan Africa, few writings are interested in this pathology, which remains common and constitutes a public health problem in highly endemic countries [1] [2]. We report the observation of a 61-year-old hypertensive patient owner of a dog admitted for abdominal pain without abdominal mass. In whom ultrasound and computed tomography have made it possible to make the diagnosis of hydatid cyst of the liver (KHF). The patient underwent surgery. We performed an associated conservative treatment post-operative albendazole. The post-operative follow-up was simple. In our patient the evolution was good after a setback of more than 2 months. Through this observation and a review of the literature, we insist on the contribution of imaging in diagnosis and treatment, which is essentially surgical.
文摘Small bowel obstruction (SBO) is defined as a complete and persistent cessation of the transit of materials and gases. It occurs in a segment of the digestive tract located between the pylorus and the colorectal junction. We report an observational study which aims to describe the epidemiological, clinical and therapeutic aspects of small bowel obstruction. This study was carried out in the General Surgery Department of H<span style="white-space:nowrap;">ô</span>pital Sominé DOLO de Mopti from October 1, 2016 to October 1, 2018. A total of 114 patients were recorded for whom the diagnosis was related to an occlusion. The median age was 37 years with extremes ranging from 6 months to 90 years. Male sex was predominant with a sex-ratio of 1.8. The frequency of small bowel occlusions over all occlusions was 74.03%. The most encountered clinical signs were as followed: abdominal pain (100%), vomiting (88.6%), cessation of materials and gas (79.9%) and meteorism (62.3%). All patients underwent medical imaging, the most common of which was an abdomen without preparation X-ray (AWP). On the etiological level, the main causes found postoperatively were: flanges and adhesion (55.2%), strangulated hernias (28.0%), acute intussusception (6.1%), small bowel volvulus (3.5%) and small bowel tumor (1.6%). Releasing the bridles was the most common surgery process (28.0%). The morbidity of the immediate follow-up was (13.1%) and the mortality was (7.0%). This high mortality is due to ignorance of the signs of seriousness and the socio-cultural barrier (decision of the patriarch to agree to a surgical intervention), the late use of hospital facility and the limited financial capability of the patients.
文摘Inguinal hernia in children is a congenital pathology in children linked to the persistence of the peritoneo-vaginal canal in children and the NüCK canal in girls;persisting into adulthood. This work aimed to study inguinal hernia in children in the general surgery department of the Reference Health Center of Commune I of the Bamako District;to determine the frequency of inguinal hernia;describe the epidemiological, clinical and therapeutic aspects of inguinal hernias and in order to evaluate the cost of treatment. This was a prospective study from April 2017 to March 2018 during which 60 children with an inguinal hernia were collected. Inguinal hernias in children represented 9.23% of patients operated on in the department. The average age was 59.23 months with extremes of one month and 180 months and a standard deviation of 49.23 years. The male sex was dominant with a sex ratio equal to 9:1. The notion of prematurity was found in 11.7% and was associated with a testicle not in place in 1.7% of cases. 41.7% of our patients were referred by a doctor and 66.7% of patients presented with painless, intermittent inguino-scrotal swelling (83.3% of cases). The hernia was discovered before one week of life in 50% of cases. Inguinal swelling was absent in 11.7% but observed intraoperatively. The inguinal hernia was unilateral in 91.7% of cases and 70% of hernias were discovered by the parents during pushing efforts. The inguinal hernia was located on the right in 61.7% of cases. The hernia swelling was soft, painless, impulsive and reducible in 78.3% of cases. The swelling was inguino-scrotal in 58.3% of cases. The hernia was simple in 95% of patients and hernial strangulation was observed in 3 cases or 5% of cases. 98.3% of patients were ASA I. The treatment was carried out openly in all our patients including closure of the vaginal peritoneal canal in 95% of cases under general anesthesia in 98.3% of cases. The morbidity rate was 8.4% (surgical site infection: 6.7% of cases and hematoma: 1.7%). The immediate consequences were simple in 96.6% of cases. No cases of recurrence occurred during the 6 months after the intervention. The average cost of care was estimated at 69,743 FCFA.
文摘Introduction: The aim of this study was to report the indications and evaluate the results of vulvectomy in the general surgery department of Ignace Deen Hospital, CHU Conakry. Materials and Methods: This was a retrospective descriptive study, conducted over a period of five (05) years from January 1, 2018 to December 31, 2022, in the general surgery department of Ignace Deen Hospital, CHU Conakry. We included in our study all patient records in whom vulvectomy was performed. Results: We recorded 15 cases of vulvectomy out of 453 perineal surgeries, i.e. 3.31%, with a mean age of 43.56 years and extremes of 35 and 69 years. Vulvar cancer was the most common diagnosis (46.67%), followed by Buschke-Lowenstein (33.33%) and anal canal cancer extending to the vulva (20%). Six patients had undergone biopsy (40%). Vulvectomy with lymph node dissection was performed in only 9 patients (60%), and all surgical specimens were sent to anatomical pathology (100%). Conclusion: Vulvectomy is a surgical technique most often indicated for the treatment of vulvar cancer.
文摘Background:Continuous care for children with enterostomy and their families has been gaining popularity in China.Objective:To evaluate the feasibility of continuous care for children with enterostomy and their families in China.Methods:The PubMed,Web of Science,Embase,Cochrane Library,EBSCO,CNKI,CBM,VIP,and WanFang were searched for clinical trials until December 30,2025.Two reviewers independently searched articles,evaluated quality and extracted data.This review was conducted in accordance with the Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Reviews and Meta-Analyses(PRISMA).Results:33 studies involving 2774 participants were included.The meta-analysis showed that continuous care strategy can significantly reduce the incidence of complications in children with enterostomy(OR=0.20,95%CI=0.16-0.26,p<0.001,I2=0%),effectively improve the family caregiver ability for enterostomy(MD=-10.34,95%CI=-13.82 to-6.85,p<0.001,I2=99%),shorten the time for family members to replace stoma bags(MD=-13.57,95%CI=-19.66 to-7.49,p<0.001,I2=100%),and alleviate negative emotions such as anxiety(SMD=-1.80,95%CI=-2.36 to-1.23,p<0.001,I2=92%)and depression(SMD=-1.54,95%CI=-2.04 to-1.04,p<0.001,I2=89%)in the families of the affected children.Conclusions:Continuous care can reduce complications of enterostomy in children,improve the family caregiver ability for enterostomy and alleviate negative emotions of family members such as anxiety and depression.
文摘Introduction: Intestinal resection is the disconnection or removal of part of the intestine with its meso. The aim was to describe the indications and prognostic factors for intestinal resections at the surgical department of Kankan Regional Hospital. Patients and Methods: This was a retrospective descriptive study covering the files of patients who had undergone intestinal resections in the surgery department of the Kankan regional hospital over a period of 4 years from 1st January 2019 to December 31, 2022. Results: We collected 164 cases of intestinal resection representing 4.19% of all surgical procedures. (N = 3909). The average age of our patients was 37.78 years with extremes of 1 and 90 years. The male gender was predominant (64.6%) and the sex ratio was 1.8. The majority of patients consulted after 72 hours. Acute intestinal obstruction was the pathology motivating the most intestinal resection 42.90% followed by acute peritonitis 33%, digestive fistula 4.3%, tumors 3.6% and wounds 2.4%. Intestinal necrosis with 91 cases (56.5%) constituted the first indication for resection in our study followed by intestinal perforations 41 cases (24.9%). We performed an anastomotic resection of the small intestine in 70 cases (42.9%), an ileostomy in 4 cases (2.4%), a right hemi colectomy in 26 cases (15.9%), a left hemi colectomy in 2 cases (1.2%), segmental colectomy plus immediate anastomosis in 57 cases (34.2%) and 5 cases of colostomy. We recorded 48 deaths (29.3%). Conclusion: Intestinal resection is a common procedure in our context. These indications are multiple. An improvement in the prognosis should be achieved by reducing the diagnostic and treatment time associated with the training of surgical staff.
文摘The metastatic pattern of colon cancer is typically well characterized,with initial dissemination occurring through regional lymphatics,followed by hematogenous spread.The most frequent sites of metastasis in colorectal cancer(CRC)include regional lymph nodes(50%–70%),liver(35%–50%),lungs(21%),peritoneum(15%),and ovaries(13%).1 Isolated distant lymph node metastasis,particularly in the absence of concurrent systemic disease,is exceedingly rare in CRC.To date,only six cases of isolated axillary lymph node metastasis(ALNM)from colorectal primaries have been documented in the literature.1–6 Even more uncommon is the incidental discovery of malignant cells in anastomotic doughnuts following stoma reversal procedures.Herein,we report a rare case involving both the incidental histopathological detection of tumor cells within doughnuts during stoma closure and the subsequent development of isolated ALNM after curative resection of sigmoid colon carcinoma.
文摘Digestive surgical emergencies concern all patients admitted urgently and for whom a decision for surgical intervention may be necessary within 24 hours. They are on guard duty day and night. To carry out this work we have set ourselves the following objectives: Study digestive surgical emergencies in the general surgery department of the Cs ref CI of Bamako;Determine the frequency of digestive surgical emergencies;Describe the clinical and therapeutic aspects, and Analyze the results of treatment. From January 2016 to December 2016, the general surgery department of the Cs ref CI of Bamako carried out 200 digestive surgical emergencies whose files were usable;119 men and 81 women, a sex ratio of 1.5. The average age was 32.67 years;66% medical evacuation. Abdominal pain was the main reason for consultation. In the majority of cases, the physical examination made it possible to make the diagnosis. Faced with certain doubtful cases, we requested paraclinical examinations (ultrasound, ASP and the rhesus group). The main etiology was acute appendicitis with 59% of cases. The frequency of digestive surgical emergencies was 35.1% of all activities of the general surgery department of the Cs ref CI of Bamako. The postoperative course was complicated in 4% of cases. Surgical site infections were the most common postoperative complications, accounting for 3% of our patients. One death was noted, i.e. 0.5% of our sample. Acute peritonitis was the cause of death in 100% of cases.
文摘The development of pancreatic surgery in China has progressed remarkably over 7 decades.China initiated its pancreatic surgery journey in the 1950s,marked by the first pancreaticoduodenectomy performed by Zeng Xianjiu in 1951.Early progress was hindered by technological limitations and fragmented practices,but the establishment of academic platforms such as the National Pancreatic Disease Symposia in the 1980s catalyzed standardized research and interdisciplinary collaboration.In 2006,Zhang Shengdao spearheaded China’s first Guidelines for the Diagnosis and Treatment of Severe Acute Pancreatitis.The 21st century has seen remarkable progress in pancreatic surgery,marked by the China-specific treatment guidelines,technological breakthroughs in laparoscopic and robotic surgical systems,and the increasing centralization of pancreatic surgery in high-volume medical centers.These synergistic advancements have collectively propelled a paradigm shift in contemporary cancer care.By 2022,China Pancreas Data Center reported a postoperative mortality rate of 0.4% and 3-year survival rates of 43% for resected pancreatic cancer,rivaling global benchmarks.China has also emerged as a leader in minimally invasive pancreatic surgery,with advancements in laparoscopic and robotic pancreatic surgery.Academic growth paralleled clinical progress:the Chinese Pancreatic Association,established in 2022,fosters global collaboration,evidenced by its 2024 annual conference attracting over 10,000 participants.Through technological innovation,centralized care models,and international partnerships,China continues to redefine its role in advancing pancreatic surgery.
