BACKGROUND:Some scholars believe that for primary spontaneous pneumothorax thoracoscopic surgery and intraoperative pleurodesis can effectively reduce the recurrence rate. ＜br> OBJECTIVE:To study the reliability and validity of video-assisted thoracoscopic entoiodine pleurodesis for treatment of primary spontaneous pneumothorax. ＜br> METHODS:Videothoracoscopy procedures were performed on 64 patients with primary spontaneous pneumothorax, including 46 males and 18 females, with an age ranging from 15 to 30 years. According to the use of pleurodesis, the patients were randomly divided into two groups:experimental group and control group. In the control group, no entoiodine was used;while in the experimental group, entoiodine dipped gauze was used on the visceral pleura. The operation time, intraoperative bleeding, postoperative drainage, postoperative leakage time, postoperative extubation time, postoperative complications and the recurrence rate of pneumothorax within 1 year after operation were compared between two groups. ＜br> RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:No significance was found in the operation time, intraoperative bleeding, postoperative leakage time, postoperative extubation time and postoperative complications between the two groups (P>0.05). Although the experimental group had significantly more postoperative drainage volume than the control group (P＜0.05), there were no consequences of medical intervention. Video-assisted thoracoscopic entoiodine pleurodesis could significantly reduce the recurrence rate of pneumothorax in 1 year after operation (P＜0.05). The results show that video-assisted thoracoscopic operation with entoiodine is a reliable and effective method to reduce the recurrence of pneumothorax after operation in patients with primary spontaneous pneumothorax.

BACKGROUND:Although thoracoscopy with pleurodesis is regarded as a positive and effective way for the treatment of malignant pleural effusion, the merit and demerit of sclerosants are directly related to postoperative recovery and the success of pleurodesis. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the therapeutic effect of talc pleurodesisvia thoracoscopy in the treatment of refractory malignant pleural effusions METHODS:There were 14 male and 15 female patients in this study, age ranging from 38 to 79 years. Al patients with refractory malignant pleural effusion underwent talc pleurodesis under thoracoscopy. The postoperative adverse reactions, chest CT scan 1 month after operation and the fluid drainage were observed. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Twenty-nine patients with chest pain were observed in this study. Eighteen patients could relieve the pain itself without medications, eight patients required oral Tramadol and three patients took Demerol or morphine oraly to ease the pain. Fever occurred in three cases at 3 days after operation. Neither pneumonedema, acute respiratory failure, nor death ocurred postoperatively. One month later, complete successful pleurodesis was achieved in 24 cases, and partial successful in 3 cases, and unsuccessful in 2 cases. The results indicate that thoracoscopy with talc pleurodesis can be regarded as a positive and effective way for the treatment of malignant pleural effusion.

Objective: To study the osteoinductive activity of chimeric molecule of bone morphogenetic protein(BMP)2 and BMP7 expressed in mammalian cells. Methods: Sequences encoding mature peptides of BMP2 and BMP7 were separately amplified by PCR and then linked by overlap-extension PCR with a DNA sequence encoding a flexible peptide (Gly_4Ser)_3 between them. The chimeric DNA sequence was cloned into secretory expression plasmid pcDNA3/sec and then the recombinant plasmid pcDNA3 -BMP2/7 was transfected into CHO-K1 cells. In the presence of G418,cells that stably expressed BMP2/7 were screened out. Thereafter, the conditioned culture medium of the transfected cells was collected and used to treat C3H10T1/2 cells. RT-PCR was employed to study the activity of the recombinant product in inducing osteoblast differentiation. Results: The expression products of chimeric BMP2/7 significantly enhanced the mRNA expression levels of osteoblast phenotype genes, such as alkaline phosphatase, osteocalcin and osteoblast specific transcription factor runt-related transcription factor 2 in C3H10T1/2 cells(P < 0.01). Conclusion: The chimeric expression products of BMP2/7 are capable of forming heterodimers and thus effectively induce non-bone derived cells to differentiate into osteoblasts.
