Estudio de las infecciones relacionadas con la asistencia sanitaria tras la realización de cistectomía radical

Introduction and objectiveRadical cystectomy is a complex surgery with a high rate of complications including infections, which lead to increased morbidity and mortality, longer hospital stay and higher costs. The aim of this work is to evaluate health care-associated infections (HAIs) in these patients, as well as associated microorganisms, antibiotic resistance profiles and risk factors.Material and methodsProspective study from 2012 to 2017. Epidemiologic variables, comorbidities and surgical variables are collected. The microorganisms involved and antibiotic susceptibility patterns are analyzed.Results122 patients. Mean age 67 (SD:18,42). Mean hospital stay 23.5 days (18.42). HAIs rate of 45%, with predominant urinary tract infections (43%) and surgical wound infections (31%). Positive cultures in 78.6% of cases. Increased isolation of Enterococcus (18%) and Escherichia coli (13%). Forty-three percent of microorganisms were resistant to amoxicillin/ampicillin, 23% to beta-lactamases and 36% to quinolones. Empirical treatment was adequate in 87.5%. Hospital stay is increased (17 days, p< 0.05) due to HAIs. Lower rate of infectious complications in the laparoscopic vs. open approach (p< 0.001) and in orthotopic vs. ileal conduit diversion (p = 0.04)ConclusionsWe found a high rate of HAIs in our radical cystectomy series, with predominant urinary tract and surgical wound infections. E.coli and Enterococcus spp. are the most frequently isolated microorganisms, with high rates of resistance to some commonly used antibiotics.     

68Ga-PSMA PET/CT在前列腺癌术前诊断及手术策略制订中的应用

目的评估⁶⁸Ga标记的前列腺特异性膜抗原(⁶⁸Ga-PSMA)PET/CT对前列腺癌的诊断效能,并探讨⁶⁸Ga-PSMA PET/CT对术前制订保留血管神经束(NVB)和淋巴结清扫策略的指导作用。方法回顾性分析2018年6月至2019年10月中国医学科学院肿瘤医院行⁶⁸Ga-PSMA PET/CT检查的46例初诊疑似前列腺癌患者的临床资料。中位年龄66.50(60.00,69.25)岁,中位前列腺特异性抗原(PSA)值15.97(8.58,33.10)ng/ml。46例中,41例⁶⁸Ga-PSMA PET/CT检查诊断为肿瘤,6例诊断有淋巴结转移;5例诊断为前列腺增生或前列腺炎。46例中40例同期行mpMRI检查,33例诊断为肿瘤,6例诊断有淋巴结转移;46例中17例同期行^11C-胆碱PET/CT检查,12例诊断为肿瘤,4例诊断有淋巴结转移。41例PSMA-PET/CT诊断为前列腺癌的患者中,高危22例,中危19例;其中37例行mpMRI检查,15例行^11C-胆碱PET/CT检查。41例均行根治性前列腺切除术。根据⁶⁸Ga-PSMA PET/CT显示的肿瘤位置,术前制订NVB处理策略:若肿瘤邻近前列腺单侧包膜,则保留健侧的NVB;若肿瘤局限于前列腺内,则保留双侧NVB。共16例保留了NVB(单侧6例,双侧10例)。对中高危组患者常规行淋巴结清扫。采用配对χ²检验或Fisher精确检验比较⁶⁸Ga-PSMA PET/CT、mpMRI、^11C-胆碱PET/CT对病灶检出的敏感性和特异性。采用Spearman相关分析检测⁶⁸Ga-PSMA PET/CT的SUV_max值与Gleason评分和治疗前PSA值的相关性。结果 41例行根治术患者术后病理确诊为前列腺癌,手术切缘均未见癌组织;中位Gleason评分8(7,9)分;病理分期20例≤pT_2c期,21例≥pT₃期;7例淋巴结阳性(11枚阳性淋巴结)。术后30 d内7例(17.1%)发生并发症,Clavien-Dindo分级均≤2级。41例术后随访中位时间16(12,20)个月,术后1、6、12个月分别有19例(46.3%)、39例(95.1%)、41例(100.0%)恢复控尿。5例未行手术的患者中,4例行抗生素治疗后PSA下降;1例PSA未下降者行穿刺活检,病理未见癌。⁶⁸Ga-PSMA PET/CT诊断前列腺癌的敏感性为100.0%(41/41),显著优于^11C-胆碱PET/CT[80.0%(12/15),P=0.016]和mpMRI[83.7%(31/37),P=0.009];特异性为100.0%(5/5),与^11C-胆碱PET/CT[100.0%(2/2),P=1.000]和mpMRI [33.3%(1/3),P=0.107]的差异均无统计学意义。41例中,⁶⁸Ga-PSMA PET/CT诊断淋巴结转移的敏感性[71.4%(5/7)]与^11C-胆碱PET/CT的差异无统计学意义[75.0%(3/4),P=1.000],与mpMRI的差异有统计学意义[16.7%(1/6),P=0.016]。Gleason评分≥8分与<8分患者⁶⁸Ga-PSMA PET/CT的原发灶SUV_max值分别为19.60(9.58,24.38)与8.55(5.18,12.88);治疗前PSA值≥20 ng/ml与<20 ng/ml患者的SUV_max值分别为19.40(13.00,23.5)与8.40(5.35,13.95),差异均有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论 ⁶⁸Ga-PSMA PET/CT对前列腺癌原发病灶诊断的敏感性高、特异性高,术前可根据PSMA PET/CT显示的肿瘤位置,制订是否保留NVB的处理策略;但其对淋巴结转移灶诊断的敏感性还不足以指导术前制订淋巴结清扫策略。     

Early-rectal Cancer Treatment: A Decision-tree Making Based on Systematic Review and Meta-analysis

Local excision (LE) has arisen as an alternative to total mesorectal excision for the treatment of early rectal cancer. Despite a decreased morbidity, there are still concerns about LE outcomes.This systematic-review and meta-analysis design is based on the “PICO” process, aiming to answer to three questions related to LE as primary treatment for early-rectal cancer, the optimal method for LE, and the potential role for completion treatment in high-risk histology tumors and outcomes of salvage surgery.The results revealed that reported overall survival (OS) and disease-specific survival (DSS) were 71%–91.7% and 80%–94% for LE, in contrast to 92.3%–94.3% and 94.4%–97% for radical surgery. Additional analysis of National Database studies revealed lower OS with LE (HR: 1.26; 95%CI, 1.09–1.45) and DSS (HR: 1.19; 95%CI, 1.01–1.41) after LE. Furthermore, patients receiving LE were significantly more prone develop local recurrence (RR: 3.44, 95%CI, 2.50–4.74). Analysis of available transanal surgical platforms was performed, finding no significant differences among them but reduced local recurrence compared to traditional transanal LE (OR:0.24;95%CI, 0.15–0.4). Finally, we found poor survival outcomes for patients undergoing salvage surgery, favoring completion treatment (chemoradiotherapy or surgery) when high-risk histology is present.In conclusion, LE could be considered adequate provided a full-thickness specimen can be achieved that the patient is informed about risk for potential requirement of completion treatment. Early-rectal cancer cases should be discussed in a multidisciplinary team, and patient's preferences must be considered in the decision-making process.     

早中期结直肠癌根治术后中西结合心理康复干预指南解读及典型病例

我国癌症患者普遍存在着心理康复需求,中医药对其有良好的干预效果。目前已有肿瘤相关西医心理指南及标准治疗方案发表,然而中西医结合及中医干预方案仍有待规范。结直肠癌作为中国高发病率、长生存期的肿瘤,其根治术后的时期作为中西医结合心理康复的良好切入点,前期已有一定基础的研究发表。为规范该类疾病的诊疗及随访,提高中西医结合治疗早中期结直肠癌根治术后心理问题的效果,2022年中华中医药学会发布《早中期结直肠癌根治术后中西医结合心理康复干预指南》,包含12条推荐意见。该指南为结直肠癌领域首个中西医结合心理干预指南,但受限于相关研究的数量与质量,未来尚需要更多高质量研究结果的发表以促进其更新完善。     

解剖性保留控尿肌群技术在腹腔镜根治性前列腺切除术中的临床应用价值

目的 探讨腹腔镜前列腺癌根治术（LRP）中解剖性保留控尿肌群技术对术后早期控尿功能恢复的影响,及其肿瘤学安全性。方法 回顾性队列研究。纳入2016年1月—2020年6月浙江大学医学院附属金华医院泌尿外科采用LRP治疗的前列腺癌患者共292例,将其中采用解剖性保留控尿肌群技术的83例纳入观察组;对另外209例接受经典前列腺癌根治术的患者与观察组患者进行1∶1倾向性评分匹配,选择其中83例纳入对照组。全组共166例,年龄45~75（64.0±7.3）岁,BMI 21~31（24.4±2.4）kg/m²。对比分析2组患者手术时间、术中出血量、术后病理TNM分期、Gleason评分、术后留置导尿时间、手术并发症和手术切缘阳性（PSM）率;采用Kaplan-Meier法评估患者3年、5年无生化复发（BCR）累积生存率;根据术后每天使用的尿垫数量进行控尿功能分级评估,分别于拔除导尿管后的当天（第1个24 h）、1周及1、3、6、12个月时,观察并对比2组患者控尿功能恢复情况。结果 2组患者年龄、临床分期、危险分级、膀胱颈和神经保留与否等临床基线特征比较,差异均无统计学意义（P值均>0.05）。全组166例均在腹腔镜下完成手术,术后恢复良好,无围手术期死亡病例。2组患者手术时间、术中出血量、术后病理TNM分期、术后Gleason评分、术后留置导尿时间和手术并发症比较,差异均无统计学意义（P值均>0.05）。观察组PSM率为10.84％（9/83）,低于对照组的13.25%（11/83）,但差异无统计学意义（χ²=0.23, P=0.633）。2组患者术后随访12~71个月,平均33.73个月。随访期间无死亡病例。观察组3年、5年无BCR累积生存率分别为90.2％和73.2%,对照组分别为91.4%和77.8%,2组差异无统计学意义（χ²=0.38, P=0.535）。在拔除导尿管后当天、1周及1、3、6个月,观察组完全控尿率分别为39.76%（33/83）、53.01%（44/83）、66.27%（55/83）、90.36%（75/83）和97.95%（81/83）,对照组为16.87%（14/83）、21.96%（18/83）、38.55%（32/83）、53.01%（44/83）和68.67%（57/83）;观察组控尿功能分级均优于对照组,差异均有统计学意义（Z=-4.24、-4.09、-3.78、-5.61、-4.99,P值均<0.001）;拔管后12个月,2组完全控尿率分别为98.80%（82/83）和93.98%（78/83）,控尿功能分级比较差异无统计学意义（Z=-1.67,P=0.094）。术后3个月,观察组控尿（完全+社交）率达100％（83/83）,高于对照组的73.49%（61/83）,差异有统计学意义（χ²=25.36, P<0.001）。结论 LRP中解剖性保留控尿肌群技术的应用有助于患者术后早期恢复控尿功能,且不影响手术的肿瘤学安全性。     

Learning curve could affect oncologic outcome of minimally invasive radical hysterectomy for cervical cancer

Background/ObjectiveRecent prospective studies have shown poorer oncologic outcomes following minimally invasive surgery, which has led many surgeons to deeply inspect their practices. We reviewed our experience and evaluated the results of radical hysterectomy in patients with early stage cervical cancer.MethodsThis retrospective study included patients with early stage cervical cancer (Ia1 - IIa1) who were treated with radical hysterectomy from May 2006 to Dec 2016. Patients were divided into three groups according to the surgical approach: radical abdominal hysterectomy (RAH), laparoscopic radical hysterectomy (LRH), and robot-assisted radical hysterectomy (RRH).ResultsLearning curves of each type of surgery were obtained using the cumulative sum method. Survival rates were compared using Kaplan–Meier curves. To analyze the learning curve of a single surgeon, 89 patients were selected from the whole population. Learning curves of each group showed two distinct phases. The minimum number of cases required to achieve surgical improvement were 16 in RAH, 13 in LRH, and 21 in RRH. Progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival did not vary between RAH and minimally invasive surgery (MIS) (p = .828 and p = .757, respectively). However, when stratified by the phases of the learning curves, patients included in the early phase of MIS showed a poorer PFS (p = .014).ConclusionsSurgical proficiency could significantly affect the oncologic outcome in MIS. A prospective study regarding sufficient surgical competence is necessary for elaborate analysis of the feasibility of minimally invasive radical hysterectomy.
