Most pelvic fractures were commonly seen in polytrauma caused by violent forces,and often complicated with hemorrhagic shock,with mortality being 25%～39%.Anti-shock and control of bleeding are th e philosophy of treatment of this critical condition.Since 1985,hundred s of pelvic fracture victims have bee n sal-vaged in my hospital by VIP procedure which means ventilation(V),infusion(I),and pulsation(P).First,V was to establish an airway,then I was to manage hypovolumic shock,and fin ally,P was to improve the impaired heart function to maintain normal hemodynamics and tissue perfusion.It was necessary for antishock therapy to infuse rapidly and sufficiently in o rder to gain diluted blood.Pneumatic antishock garment,angiography an d em-bolism,and retroperitoneal tampon aded bleeding could control most hem orrhage associated with pelvic fractures.[

AIM:To put forward three-level design(Box-Behnken design) for fitting response surfaces to optimize the extraction technology of total flavonoids from Hypericum ascyron L.METHODS:Four factors,including temperature,reflux time,concentration of ethanol,ratio of solvent to raw material were used to examine the yield of total flavonoids.Prediction was carried out through comparing the observed and predicted values.RESULTS:The results suggested that ethanol concentration and extraction temperature were two statistically significant factors.The optimum conditions of extraction process consisted of the ratio(mL:g)of solvent to material(13.3:1),ethanol concentration(53.2%),extraction temperature(78.7℃)and extraction time(2.3h).Regression coefficient of bino-mial fitting complex model was as high as 0.984 6.Bias between observed and predicted values was -4.01%.CONCLUSION:Box-Behnken design is success in optimizing the extaction in close agreement with the predicted values of the mathematic model.

ObjectiveThis paper reported our experience with thoracoscopic management of isolated atrial fibrillation to define the efficacy and safety of this approach.MethodsThirtytwo patients ( 17 mem,15 women) with isolated atrial fibrillation underwent thoracoscopic surgery.All procedures were finished under 3 port incisions on left posterior chest.Among them 18 cases are paroxysmal and 8 persistent.ResultsThere was no operative death or major perioperative complications.One case was converted to limited thoracotomy because of bleeding.Operation time was 87 - 238 min.Paroxysmal atrial fibrillation occurred in 9 cases in hospital and all the cases were sinus rhythm after discharge.Followup 4 to 20 months,One persistent case was converted paroxysmal.ConclusionPatients with isolated atrial fibrillation can benefited by Videoassisted thoracoscopic left posterior approach with better exposure of left atrial and resection of the left atrial appendage,with decreased operative trauma and better results.

To investigate the electrophysiologic characteristics of f-wave amplitude and to evaluate its role in development and persistence of chronic atrial fibrillation (AF) associated with rheumatic heart disease (RHD). Methods: Epicardial mapping was performed in 44 patients with chronic AF of RHD who underwent heart valve surgery. Ten patients with supraventricular tachycardia served as the control group. Results:The f-wave amplitude of left atrium (LA) and middle and low LA posterior regions were significantly lower than those of the control group. The f-wave amplitudes of the upper, middle and low sections in LA posterior region were significantly lower than those in right atrium (RA) (P<0.05). The f-wave amplitudes were compared before and after electrocardioversion in 14 patients with chronic AF. The mean atrial electrogram amplitude during sinus rhythm was significantly higher than that during AF (P<0.01).The f-wave amplitude in left appendage was higher than that in LA posterior region (the upper,middle and the lower part),P<0.05.The f-wave amplitude in the upper section of LA was significantly higher than that in the middle section. The f-wave amplitude in AF group was not correlated to the diameter or volume of both atria. Conclusion: There are amplitudes differences between the upper, middle and lower LA,suggesting that the middle and lower sections of LA posterior wall may be the region producing anisotropy and reentrant circle.

In subclinical diabetic nephropathy with glomerular hyperfiltration,the renal size parameters are increased significantly,and this change sets in as early as before the appearance of microalbuminuria.The average kidney length discriminator value for glomerular hyperfiltration by receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve analysis is 10.53 cm,with the best sensitivity,higher specificity and total coincidence rate,and can be a clinical indicator for screening early diabetic nephropathy with glomerular hyperfiltration.

In February, 2019, a patient with a defect of open dorsal cartilage and bone in the first metatarsal head, including the defects of soft tissue, tendon and joint capsule, was treated in our department. After multiple debridement, the vascularised medial femoral condyle osteochondral chimeric tissue flap was transferred to repair the composite tissue defect in the metatarsal head at the second stage. After 18 months of follow-up, the patient felt no pain in the foot and walking, and there was no sign of lameness and discomfort at donor sites. The postoperative functional recovery was satisfactory.

Objective To summarize surgical experience of eight patients with pentalogy of Cantrell. Methods Six male and two female patients with pentalogy of Cantrell,aged from 4 months to 26 years old, average 7.35 years old, underwent surgical therapy for intracardiac anomalies and extracardiac anomalies from July 2007 to June 2009. Eight case with intracardiac anomalies include one case with only VSD, one case with only ASD, two cases with DORV, four cases with VSD and ASD or PTO. Experts majoring in cardiovascular surgery cooperated with doctors majoring in thoracic surgery and general surgery for satisfactory correction of intracardiac anomalies and extracardiac anomalies and repositioning heart to thoracic cavity. Results Ectopic heart of the first patient was simply repositioned into thoracic cavity following surgery of double outlet of right ventricle in another hospital two years before. Correction of introcardiac anomaly and reposition of ectopic heart finished at one time in 7 cases. Eight patients got full recovery except that residual shunt occurred in the second case which also got full recovery after transcatheter therapy. Ventricular diverticulum was removed in the fourth case because of difficult reposition of ectopic heart.With the help of general surgeon and thoracic surgeon, partial coronary ligament of liver and falciform ligament of liver in the left was cut in the first case and the left half lobe of liver was pushed downward. Bilateral pleural and marginal costal costochondral was cut and make thoracic wall upward so that ectopic heart can reset into thoracic cavity. And then, defect of diaphragm and abdominal wall were repaired with Proceed patch. In the other seven cases, bilateral pericardium and mediastinal pleura was cut and the 7th and 8th cartilage was transected and bilateral costal arch was closed so for complete thoracic angioplasty.Left ventricular dysfunction occurred in the fifth case with DORV and also got full recovery after symptomatic treatment. Full recovery was got in all cases after followingup from 1 to 23 months. No adverse complications occurred and every case live a wonderful life. Conclusion Pentalogy of Cantrell can be cured at one time by accurate correction of cardiac anomalies, cutting of bilateral pleural and marginal costal costochondral to make thoracic wall upward and enlarge thoracic space for repositinning of ectopic heart and using artificial patch to repair defect of diaphragm when necessary.

Objective    To summarize the experience of totally thoracoscopic cardiac surgery for ventricular septal defect. Methods    Clinical data of 449 patients undergoing totally thoracoscopic cardiac surgery for ventricular septal defect from May 2008 to December 2018 in Shanghai Yodak Cardiothoracic Hospital were analyzed retrospectively. There were 232 male and 217 female patients, aged from 3 to 55 years with a mean age of 17.3±11.2 years. Results    All the operations were completed successfully. Mean operative time was 2.4±0.3 h. The mean extracorporeal circulation time and aortic cross-clamp time was 64.2±11.6 min and 28.4±10.7 min, respectively. Mechanical ventilation time and intensive care unit stay was 6.9±3.8 h and 20.5±5.6 h, respectively. Postoperation drainage quantity was 213.1±117.2 mL. The hospital stay was 6.9±1.3 d. Intraoperative and postoperative complications occurred in 11 patients (2.4%), including 1 patient of intraoperative reoperation, 3 patients of reoperation for bleeding, 3 patients of the incision infection, 2 patients of small residual shunt, 1 patient of right femoral artery incision stenosis complicated by thromboembolism and 1 patient of right pleural cavity pneumothorax. The mean follow-up time was 72.2±33.9 months. During the period, there was no reoperation, but 2 patients of ventricular septal defect small residual shunt, 1 patient of mild-moderate mitral valve and 1 patient of mild-moderate aortic valve incompetence, respectively. During the period, heart function of the patients was NYHAⅠ-Ⅱ. Conclusion    Totally thoracoscopic cardiac surgery for ventricular septal defect is a safe and effective treatment, with few serious complications, fast recovery for patients and good short to medium-term outcomes.
