We report a case of 46-year-old xanthoderm woman who was diagnosed as malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors of right maxillary sinus, and have a literature review. Histology confirmed a diagnosis of malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumor. The woman had the right total maxillectomy and postoperative adjuvant radiotherapy. There is no local recurrence or metastasis of one year following up. Literature review revealed MPNST in the nasal cavity and para-nasal sinuses were not common with poor prognosis. The main cause of death is local recurrence and metastasis. Surgical resection showed more advantage than adjuvant radiotherapy and chemotherapy.

To explore the possibility of bladder reinnervation and artificial triggering voiding established by Achilles tendon reflex after spinal cord injuries above cone. Bilateral anterior roots of S 1 and main bladder innervating roots (S 2 or S 3) in 8 patients were severed intradurally and then anastomosed to establish artificial reflex arc of "Achilles tendon spinal cord bladder". After followed up for an average of 2 8 years, it was found that the patients were free from nocturnal incontinence, with micturition frequency of 5~6/d, and the urinary volume varied from 250 to 500 ml each time. The results suggested that artificial reflex arc of "Achilles tendon spinal cord bladder" could restore bladder function in patients with spinal cord injuries above cone

Objective To investigate the approaches and clinical value of intra-abdominal fluid monitoring after laparoscopic splenectomy (LS). Methods We collected the data of 63 cases of LS performed in the West China Hospital from November 2005 to August 2008,and analyzed the level of amylase in intra-abdominal fluid,changes of color,volume,and characteristics of the drainage fluid,as well as the results of germiculture and ultrasonography. Results Among the cases,post-LS complications were detected by intra-abdominal fluid monitoring in 4 cases early after the surgery. In the four cases,2 patients showed hemorrhagic fluid (over 40 ml/h),and then was found having postoperative bleeding in the splenogastric ligament by abdominal exploration in 12 hours. In the other 2 patients,ravidous drainage fluid was detected in 6 days after the operation,and increased levels of amylase (15 189 and 9206 U/L,respectively) was revealed while germiculture was negative; pancreatic fistula (PF) was then diagnosed and somatostatin was administered. Of the 2 patients who developed PF,intra-abdominal drainage was patent in 1,and the drainage tube was withdrawn in 20 days; for the other cases who had non-patent drainage,ultrasonography-guided percutaneous puncture catheter drainage was performed,and the drainage tube was taken out in 2 months. Conclusions LS is safe,reliable,and minimally invasive. Postoperative monitoring of intra-abdominal fluid is valuable for early detection of post-LS complications.

Objective To observe and evaluate the expression and significance of Nogo-66 receptor (NgR) mRNA in adult rats′ optic nerve. Methods Optic and sciatic nerves of 8 adult rats were used to make the sections, which were divided into 3 groups: optic-nerve experimental group, sciatic-nerve control group, and optic-nerve negative control group. In situ hybridization was used to observe the expression of NgR mRNA in optic nerve and sciatic nerve. Results The expression of NgR mRNA in the 8 rats was positive in optic nerve and negative in sciatic nerve. The positive signals were arranged along the long axis of optic nerve. Conclusion The expression of NgR mRNA is positive in optic nerve while negative in sciatic nerve in adult rats, which suggests that the positive expression and distribution of NgR may be related to the poor regenerate ability of optic nerves.

Objective To assess the safety of emergent invasive treatment in severe postpartum hemorrhage. Methods Invasive treatment was performed in 18 patients with severe postpartum hemorrhage. The operation time, therapeutic effect, collateral circulation of uterus feeding arteries, pathological changes in uterine muscle after embolization and radiation dose received by the ovary during operation were investigated for safety assessment. Results (1) All eighteen patients who had been failed to conservative treatment were successfully cured with invasive treatment. The duration of hemostasis was 3 to 10 minutes, mean time (6?4) minutes. The operation time was 30 to 50 minutes, mean time (39?5) minutes. (2) Although both sides of internal iliac arteries or uterine arteries were embolized, a small amount of blood supply for uterus remains from ovary arteries, from branches external iliac arteries and from other arteries. (3) Uterine biopsies were performed in 3 patients 5 to 10 days after the invasive treatments for pathological examinations. Pathological findings showed that the necroses of uterine muscles were disconnected and the whole areas were blow 1/4. (4) The mean radiation dose received by the ovary in 5 cases was (17?7) cGy, which was within the safe limit. Conclusions The use of the emergency invasive treatment is safe in severe postpartum hemorrhage.
