The HBsAg and AFP in liver tissues were studied by the immunohistochemical method in 65 patients with hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC). The results showed that both HBsAg and AFP in the tissues of HCC existed mainly in the cytoplasm. This result indicated that HBV DNA might express HBsAg and made liver cell to produce AFP, and might promote the occurrance of HCC. The AFP expressed in HCC tissues might reflect the differentiation of HCC and be a more specific marker of HCC than that in serum.

Objective To investigate the relationship between the osteopontin ( OPN ) expression of colorectal cancer tissues with the clinical characteristics and prognosis. Methods The expressions of OPN in colorectal cancer tissues and their corresponding para-cancerous tissues from 112 cases of colorectal cancer patients were detccted by immunohistochemistry . The relationship between the expressions of OPN and the clinicopathological features in pait-ients with colorectal cancer were analyzed. Results The OPN expression of colorectal cancer tissues was signifi-cantly higher than their corresponding adjacent normal tissues, the difference was statistically significant ( P <0. 05). Its expression was significantly associated with tumor size, histological differentiation, TNM stage, tumor status. Disease-free survival, and overall survival time of OPN protein positive expression group were lower than that of the negative group, respectively, the differences were statistically significant(P<0. 05). The expression of OPN in colorectal cancer tissues was an independent prognostic factor. Conclusion The expression of OPN is sig-nificantly increased in colorectal cancer tissues, and the positive expression of OPN is associated with the prognostic of patients with colorectal cancer.

Objective To investigate the strategy and announcements of surgery in primary retroperitoneal. tumor for improving the rescetable rate and decreasing the surgical risk.Methods Clinical data of 50 cases undergoing surgery of retroperitoneal tumor in our hospital from January 2004 to December 2008 were retrospectively analyzed.Results Tumors were benign in 20 cases and malignant in 30 cages.Complete resection was achieved in 39 cases(78%).in which combined organ resection carried out in 10 cases(20%),3 cases(6%)underwent partial resection.non-resection and had biopsy only were performed in 8 cases(16%),so the rescetable rate of this clinical weTe 84%(42/50).Conclusions Abundant preoperative preparation,wide open operation field and distinct anatomical dissection were the essential condition of the resecting primary retroperitoneal tumor.The relevant surgical skill should decrease the surgical risk.The tumor should be completely reaeeted in principle,and invaded neighboring organs should be resected with the discretion at the gane time.Completely resected was the key 10 improving the surviral rate and the strategy to decreasing the reeurence rate for recurrent retroperitoneal tumor.

Objective To investigate the expression and clinical significance of migration inhibitory factor ( MIF) and matrix metalloproteinase-9(MMP-9) in human gastric cancer tissue and corresponding adjacent normal tissue. Methods Selected surgery and pathologically confirmed 80 cases of gastric cancer as the experimental group, took another 80 cases of corresponding adjacent tissues as a control group. The expressions of MIF and MMP-9 were de-tected in 80 cases of gastric cancer patients cancer tissue and corresponding adjacent normal tissue by immunohisto-chemical SP method. Results ①The expression of MIF and MMP-9 of gastric cancer in varying degrees:The pos-itive rates of MIF and MMP-9 were 68. 8% and 67. 5%,which were higher than that in adjacent normal tissues, 32. 5% and 37.5% (P <0.05);② The expression of MIF was significantly associated with the clinical stage, depth of invasion,degree of differentiation,lymph node metastasis and TNM staging (P<0.05), nothing to do with other clinicopathological parameters;the expression of MMP-9 was significantly associated with the depth of inva-sion,degree of differentiation, lymph node metastasis and TNM staging (P<0.05), nothing to do with other clini-copathological parameters;③ There was positive correlation between the expression of MIF and MMP-9 in gastric cancer tissue (χ2 =9. 154, P<0. 01,r=0.338). Conclusion The expressions of MIF and MMP-9 show a posi-tive expression in gastric carcinoma, there maybe have a positive correlation between MIF and MMP-9. Their ex-pressions of varying degrees are closely related with the occurrence and development of gastric cancer, guidance gastric diagnosis, treatment and prognosis.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the distribution of nosocomial infection(NI) in patients after surgical procedures and antimicrobial resistant change of pathogens. METHODS A total of 195 strains of pathogenic bacteria isolated from the samples after surgical procedures from Jan 2006 to Dec 2006 were analyzed by WalkAway-40 system with NC31 system. RESULTS Among the 195 strains of pathogenic bacteria,there were Gram-negative bacilli(74.4%) and Gram-positive cocci(25.6%).The dominating microorganisms were Escherichia coli,Klebsiella pneumoniae,Pseudomonas aeruginosa and Staphylococcus aureus.The result showed that vancomycin and imipenem still had better activities to the bacteria. CONCLUSIONS Surgical incision infection should be monitored by some effective measures,and it is very important to prevent surgical infection and use antibiotics reasonably.

ObjectiveTo investigate rational surgical therapy for patients aged at 70 and up suffering from cardiac cancer. Methods 79 cases admitted from 1991 to 2000 were treated by transabdominal total gastrectomy with a radical resection rate of 73% and palliative resection rate of 19%. Results The average age was 74 6 years with a ratio of male to female of 4 6∶1. The average course of the disease was 3 1 months, and only 1 (2%) case got early diagnosis,while the misdiagnosis rate was 54%. Postoperative complication rate was 38%, mortality rate was 3%. Conclusions With the preoperative concurrent disease properly managed and the operation appropriately performed senile patients with cardiac cancer could also be managed successfuly as young patients .

Regenerative surgery is an emerging multidisciplinary field that has the potential to transform the surgical treatment for diseases and injuries. This article provides a brief overview of the history of surgery and regenerative medicine, introduces the new concept of regenerative surgery, describes the surgical procedures, and discusses the role of surgeons in developing and implementing these technologies. Insights gained from recent clinical research of regenerative medicine are beginning to yield three strategies for regenerative therapies for surgical diseases, and this review also provides the challenges and translational perspectives of these different strategies.
