Objective To open the reset common bone and open ordinary osteosynthesis(MIPPO)(in effect in the treatment of high energy tibial fracture.Methods High energy tibial fracture in 42 cases of patients,according to the condition of the patient and the treatment were divided into two groups,using open reduction and bone treatment (open group,22 cases),treated with MIPPO technique(MIPPO group,20 cases).The indicators of operation,postop-erative complications and clinical efficacy of the two groups were observed.Results The operation time,intraopera-tive bleeding volume,fracture healing time of the MIPPO group were (75.2 ±9.7)min,(107.3 ±11.3)mL,(13.1 ± 3)weeks,which of the open group were (73.4 ±10)min,(208.5 ±16.3)mL,(18.2 ±4.7)weeks,the two groups had no statistically significant differences in operative time(P >0.05),two groups of blood loss,fracture healing time, the differences were statistically significant(t =23.153,4.143,all P <0.05);the complication rate in the MIPPO group was 10.0%,tibial shaft fracture healing function excellent rate was 95.0%.The complication rate of the open groupwas healing function excellent rate was 72.7%,36.4% tibial shaft fracture,there were significant differences between the two groups(χ2 =12.316,22.964,all P <0.01).Conclusion MIPPO technology in the treatment of high energy tibial shaft fractures,with less bleeding,fracture healing fast,and the characteristics of a significant effect, which is worth promoting.

Objective To evaluate the value of color Doppler flow imaging(CDFI) in the diagonosis of placental site trophoblastic tumor(PSTT). Methods After being examined by transvaginal CDFI, four of six patients underwent curettage and two of them had hysterectomy and attached by chemical treatment. All the patients were verified to have a PSTT by pathology. Results The image of PSTT in CDFI included different size at different site, low resistence index (RI) of vessel around the lesion, and absence of vessel in the lesion. Conclusions The characteristic image in CDFI is helpful to the diagnosis of PSTT.

Objective　To establish the normal growth velocity of fetal liver length and compare them with those of intrauterine growth retardation, pregnant diabetes and maternal-fetal blood types imcopatible. Method　Three hundred and five normal pregnant women and 24, 10, 16 pathological pregnant women of intrauterine growth retardation (IUGR), gestational diabetes and maternal-fetal blood types incompatible respectively had ultrasonographic measurement of fetal liver length at 18 to 42 weeks′ gestation. Results　Normal fetal liver length has a linear relation to gestational age, and showed a significantly rapid increase after 28th week with a growth rate of 1.76 mm per week, and 1.00 mm per week before 28th week (P<0.05). The growth rate of IUGR group before and after therapy were 1.19 mm and 1.23 mm per week, significantly lower than those of normal group (P<0.05). The growth rate of pregnant diabetes group before and after therapy were 1.63 mm and 1.63 mm per week, no statistical significance with normal group (P>0.05). The growth rate of maternal-fetal blood types incompatible group before therapy was 1.98 mm, showed no difference with normal group (P>0.05), but after therapy, the growth rate of fetal liver was 1.38 mm per week, significantly lower than normal group (P<0.05). Conclusion　Dynamic measurement of fetal liver length can help us to understand whether the fetus grow well in uterus and whether the treatments are effective.

Objective To investigate the value of transvaginal ultrasound in the diagnosis of endometrial polyps. Methods One hundred and ten patients diagnosed as endometrial polyps by transvaginal ultrasound and undergone operative hysteroscopy and histologic examination, were analyzed retrospectively.Results Among 110 cases 75 cases (68.2%) were accurately diagnosed by transvaginal ultrasound,while 35 cases (31.8%) were misdiagnosed.The diseases misdiagnosed included endometrium hyperplasia,intrauterine adhesions and submucousmyoma.Conclusions Combining clinical symptoms with ultrasonogram characters and optimal time of detection can reduce the misdiagnostic rate of endometrial polyps.

Treatment and the clinical outcome of patients with head and neck cancer are determined by accurate staging and assessment of the cervical lymph nodes for metastases is an important step of this process. Ultrasonography, ultrasonography-guided fine needle aspiration (FNA), CT, MRI and PET/CT are used in the assessment of cervical lymph nodes. Ultrasonography guided FNA is advantageous in ease of application, minimumal invasiveness to patients, and less contraindications. Combined with cell block and molecular biology, FNA can be an effective tool for the diagnosis. The present article reviewed the diagnostic value of ultrasonography guided FNA in cervical lymph node assessment in patients with head and neck cancer.

Objective The serum S100B level reflects brain injury after stroke .This study was to explore the features of ser-um S100 B in post-stroke depression patients and its change after anti-depression treatment . Methods Totally 52 of the 95 post-stroke depression inpatients were included in this study .All the patients were treated with escitalopram for 8 weeks followed evaluation of their depression status and the therapeutic effects with Hamilton Depression Scale -17.The serum S100B concentration was detected before and after the treatment .Thirty-six post-stroke patients without depression and another 36 normal controls were recruited for com-parison of the serum S100B concentration.Response is defined as the reduction rate of HAMD-17≥50% after the treatment . Results The serum S100 B levels of the post-stroke depression patients , non-depression post-stroke patients, and normal controls were ([0.44 ± 0.14] vs [0.36 ±0.09] vs [0.21 ±0.10] μg /L, F=41.88, P=0.000), those of the male and female post-stroke depression patients at the baseline were ([0.46 ±0.16] vs [0.43 ±0.14] μg /L, t=0.7062, P=0.4833), and those of the ischemic stroke and hem-orrhagic stroke patients at the baseline were ([0.42 ±0.12] vs [0.47 ±0.15] μg /L, t=1.3097, P=0.1963).The reductions of the S100B level in the response and non-response groups were ([0.13 ±0.03] vs [0.04 ±0.01] μg /L, t=11.6595, P=0.0000). Conclusion The serum S100 B level in post-stroke depression patients is higher than in non-depression post-stroke patients and normal controls, which is not associated with gender or stroke types .The decrease of serum S100B predicts the efficacy of anti-depression treatment.

Objective　To investigate the characteristics of fetal growth in uterus. Methods　A total of 695 term singleton infant were studied. Various ultrasound measurements (including Biparietal diameter BPD, Transverse abdomen-diameter AD, femur length FL) obtained from 26 weeks' gestation to term. 147 cases were macrosomia. 48 cases were intra-uterine growth retardation (IUGR). 500 cases were normal weight. We assessed the tendency of BPD/AD and AD/FL of fetal. Results　BPD/AD ratio of macrosomia was lowest, and BPD/AD ratio of IUGR was highest of them. The tendency of BPD/AD ratio were declined in gestation. AD/FL ratio of macrosomia were highest, and AD/FL ratio of IUGR was lowest of them. The tendency of AD/FL ratios were smooth in gestation. Conclusion　The tendency of fetal growth in uterus showed that the add of abdominal diameter contributed to gain in weight.

Objective To investigate ultrasonography imaging feature of intravenous leiomyomatosis (IVL).Methods Analysing 34 cases of IVL retrospectively,which had been treated and diagnosed in the hospital from Jan,1998 to Dec,2003.Results Among 34 cases,2 cases were diagnosed as IVL,20 cases were diagnosed as uterine leiomyoma or uterine leiomyoma with degeneration and 12 cases as uterine leiomyoma with adenomyosis.Conclusions Knowledge shortage on the clinical feature of IVL causes the low rate of accurate diagnosis of IVL by ultrasonography imaging.

Objective To explore the Csx/Nkx 2.5 gene expression in the heart during the embryonic period and its mutation in subjects with congenital heart disease(CHD). Methods Immunohistochemistry was used to reveal the Csx/Nkx 2.5 gene expression, and PCR-SSCP-silver staining and DNA sequencing for mutation. Sixty-three embryos or fetus, 126 children with congenital heart diseases and 30 normal controls were included in the study. Results Elevated expression of Csx/Nkx 2.5 gene was found in atrium and trabecular of ventricle. After 16 weeks of gestation, the expression in atrium was stable, while slightly reduced in the trabecular. The expression in the ventricle was lower than that in the atrium in early embryonic stage followed by continuous increase which was most remarkable in 13~16 weeks and kept stable after 16 weeks. No expression of Csx/Nkx 2.5 was detected in epicardium. Three different kinds of gene polymorphisms in the third base of the 21st amino acid codon were found in all subjects:A,G,A/G. Conclusions Gene Csx/Nkx 2.5 plays an important role during the fetal heart development and its expression varies in different parts of the heart during different period in fetal development. Neither the sporadic nor the CHD cases showed any mutations in this study.

Objective To investigate the value of transvaginal contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS)in the diagnosis of adnexal masses.Methods Thirty patients with adnexal mass were examined by conventional 2D imaging and contrast tuned imaging(CnTI)technology.The results were compared with pathological results and the CEUS features wet concluded.Results There were 21 cases of benign adnexal masses and 9 cases of ovarian malignancies among 30 patients.The CnTI technology can distinguish between solid and cystic parts in masses.CEUS showed that malignant tumor had the high microvessel density and these vessels were irregular in shape.Partial malignant masses had the characteristic in-out phases in CnTI imagine.Conclusions Transvaginal CEUS is benefit to improve the accuracy of diagnosis of pelvic adnexal masses.
