[Objective]To investigate the key points of treatment and effect of schmannomas in brachial plexus and peripheral nerves.[Method] Thirty-eight cases of schwannomas in brachial plexus and peripheral nerves were verified with pathology and clinical from 1999 to 2007.There were one case in accessory nerve,2 cases in cervical plexus cutaneous nerve,6 cases in brachial plexus,2 cases in lumbar plexus,17 cases in upper extremity,10 cases in lower extremity.Microsurgical removal of the tumors was done in 37 cases.They were monitored with negro-electro phsiology in operation.The other one case was repaired for nerve grafting after the tumor was cut off.The complexed parts were all examined with MRI before surgery,and all tumors were verified for schwannoma with pathyology.[Result]In 38 cases,there were no function deficit and recurrence over a period of follow up from 6 months to 7 years in 36 cases.The partial intrinsic muscle palsy was present postoperatively in one case of the schwannomas in ulnar nerve with microsurgery of tumor,and recovered after 10 days.After the schwannoma in L4 nerves were cut off and the nerves was grafted,the myodynamia of quadriceps femoris were decreased two degree below,the treatment effect of nerve grafting were being followed up. [Conclusion](1)The technique of microsurgery was used under the microscopic operating,the tumors should be cut off for the most degree to decrease the recurrence possibility,remain the normal neuro-function.(2) The MRI examination should be carried out before the schwannoma operating in the complex pares of the crans,brachial plxus,lumbar plexus and etc.(3) All the schwannoma should be verified by pathyology after surgery.

Objective To investigate the process of apoptosis in lungs and liver induced by crushing hindlimbs of rat, and study the mechanismof crush injury. Methods The rat experimental model of hindlimbs crush injury was established. The cell apoptosis in lungs and liver was detected by TUNEL assay, and the expression of Bax, Bcl-2 and caspase-3 apoptin was examined by immunohistochemistry. Results C ompared with the control group, the partial muscle injury of rat’s hindlimbs was more serious with more apoptosis observed in lungs and liver (P<0.05). The expression of Bax was up-regulated and Bcl-2 was down-regulated, whereas caspase-3 expression was activated (P<0.05). Conclusion The cell apoptosis has increased significantly in lungs and liver after crush injury of hindlimbs in rat. The corre-lation factor released during tissue injury may mediate apoptosis process.

Objective:To investigate the surgical therapeutic efficacy of uterine tumors patients underwent Cf-252 neutron intra-cavity and external radiotherapy, and evaluate the application value of Cf-252 neutron radiotherapy.Methods:Thirteen cases of uterine tumor with local suspicious lesions or poor prognostic factors after CF-252 neutron intracavity and external radiotherapy were treated with surgery. Among them, 12 cases underwent extrafascial hysterectomy, 1 case underwent extensive hysterectomy and lymphadenectomy. The postoperative pathology and follow-up results were used to evaluate the efficacy.Results:Nine cases showed severe response to radiotherapy in postoperative cervical pathological tissues without residual tumor, and survived for more than 3-14 years, the median survival time was 8 years. All of 4 cases with residual tumor died within 1 year. Delayed healing of vaginal wounds occurred in 3 of the 12 cases.Conclusions:Cf-252 is a good brachytherapy source. The cervical tissue shows severe response to radiotherapy and prolonged healing time of vaginal wound is observed in some cases after CF-252 radiotherapy. To those uterine tumor patients with local suspicious lesions or poor prognostic factors after CF-252 neutron intracavity and external radiotherapy, extrafascial hysterectomy is a safe and feasible treatment method.
