Objective To investigate the outcome of the finger reconstruction using one toe transfer to repair the tissue defects of two fingers at the same time. Methods Two fingers joint tissue missing and finger defect of 8 fingers in 4 cases were reconstructed with dissociative transplants harvested from two parts of the same toe at the same time.Using the paratelum of the second toes reconstructed the indicis paratelum or finger tip,and using the proximal interphalangeal joint of the second toes repaired the proximal interphalangeal joint's tissue defects of the middle finger at the same time in 2 cases.Using the distal interphalangeal joint and the proximal interphalangeal joint of one second toe reconstructed the proximal interpha langeal joints of the index finger and the middle finger in 1 case.Using the proximal interphalangeal joint and the metatarsophalangeal joint of one second toe reconstructed the metacarpophalangeal joints of the index finger and the middle finger in 1 case. Results All the transplants survived.The patients were followed-up from 2 months to 46 months postoperatively.The function and shape of 2 resconstruction fingers were excellent as assessed with Criterion on Functional Evaluation on Finger Reconstruction issued by Chinese Society of Hand Surgery.Five resconstruction fingers were good.One resconstruction finger was fire. Conclusion For some appropriate cases with the tissue defects of 2 fingers such as the finger's paratelum,the interphalangeal joint or the metacarpophalangeal joint,this operated technique was a good method.

Objective To discuss the application value of contrast-enhanced uhrasound(CEUS)in diagnosis of hepatic artery thrombosis(HAT)after liver transplantation.Methods Four hundred and seventy-five liver transplantation patients were performed routine exam by color Doppler uhrasound,11patients suspected of HAT were examined by CEUS.Results All cases were confirmed bv DSA or CTA.Of them,6 cases were thrombotic by CEUS,and 3 cases out of the 6 cases HAT were founded infarction.The other 5 cases were nonthrombotic,but the diameter of hepatic artery showed narrow,3 Datients were accompanied by severe fatty liver. Conclusions CEUS is equally effective as DSA or CTA in diagnosing HAT after liver transplantation.

BACKGROUND:The establishment of a standardized clinical liver transplantation specimen bank is the primary condition for scientific research in this field, which can help to provide a qualified sample resource platform for research. OBJECTIVE:To primarily establish biological specimen bank of hepatocelular carcinoma for liver transplantation, to explore the standardized procedures of specimen colection, processing and preservation of hepatocelular carcinoma for liver transplantation, and to establish the sound and comprehensive information management system of clinical information of colected specimens. METHODS: In accordance with standardized procedures to establish biological specimen banks, the operational processes and quality control system were formulated. Liver tissue and blood samples of hepatocelular carcinoma recipients undergoing liver transplantation were regularly colected, managed and stored. Simultaneously, liver tissue and blood samples of benign liver disease in liver transplant recipients and of healthy donor were colected as controls. A systematic management was conducted in colected specimens and corresponding clinical information. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:From August 2009, tissue and blood samples of 501 cases of receipts and donors undergoing liver transplantation with complete clinical information were colected from the specimen bank, including 203 hepatocelular carcinoma specimens, 214 benign liver disease specimens and 84 healthy donor specimens. These specimens included tumor tissue, adjacent tissues and distal non-cancerous tissue specimens, totaly 1 773. A total of 45 specimens were randomly selected for quality monitoring. The colected specimens had a high quality. Specimen information data computer management system was developed. This study initialy established a standardized research-based clinical transplantation specimen bank, which is helpful to elevate sample quality and has a good manipuility.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the clinical feature,diagnosis and treatment of tuberculosis in post-solid organ transplantation patients.METHODS The clinical data of 11 patients with tuberculosis post-solid organ transplantation were analyzed retrospectively,in which eight cases were the patients with post-liver transplantation,two cases were the patients with post-kidney transplantation and one patient with post-liver and kidney transplantation.The diaghosis were based on the case history,pathogenic,image and the consequence of diagnostic therapy against tuberculosis were observed.RESULTS Infection rate of tuberculosis after liver transplantation,kidney transplantation and combined liver and kidney transplantation were 0.92%,1.10% and 7.14%,respectively.The three cases suffered from acute miliary tuberculosis.One case suffered from exudative pulmonary tuberculosis.One case suffered from tuberculosis pleuritis.One case suffered from lymph node tuberculosis.One case suffered from tuberculosis of lumber spine complicating exudative pulmonary tuberculosis.Four cases were not found lesion in their body.Each patient was adopted with individual treatment.The following up were 83 day to 1080 day.One case was died.Ten cases were cured.CONCLUSIONS Tuberculosis patients with post-solid organ transplantation had atypical clinical symptom under immunosuppressive agents.Part of the patients are lacked of evidences from image,bacteriology or immunology.Diagnostic errors are made sometimes.Diagnostic therapy against tuberculosis should be put into practice for the patients with suspicious tuberculosis.

Objective To assess the value of clinical applications of whole-body diffusion-weighted imaging (WB-DWI) in diagnosing patients with malignant tumors compared with positron emission tomography (PET). Methods A total of 22 patients with highly suspected malignant tumors underwent WB-DWI after PET. The differences between the two imaging methods were compared in displaying lesions, and the correlation between ADC and SUV value was analyzed. Results More lesions were showed with WB-DWI than PET. There was no significant difference between the two methods in detecting the lesions of lung, mediastinal septum or abdomen (P>0.05), but more lesions in skeleton were showed with WB-DWI (P<0.05). No significant correlation between ADC and SUV value was found. Conclusion Compared with PET, WB-DWI can detect more tumor lesions. The sensitivity of WB-DWI in detecting metastatic tumors of bone is higher than that of PET.

Objective The aim of this study was to retrospectively review the efficacy and safety of treatment for unresectable locally advanced non-small cell lung cancer (LA-NSCLC).Methods A total of 98 patients treated in our hospital between January 2010 and December 2015 were enrolled in this study.Patients were divided into three groups:the thoracic radiotherapy (TRT) alone,concurrent chemoradiotherapy,and sequential chemoradiotherapy groups.The progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) were analyzed via the Kaplan-Meier method,and compared with the log-rank/Breslow test.The prognostic factors were analyzed using the Kaplan-Meier and Cox multivariate proportional hazards models.Results The median PFS in the concurrent therapy group was longer than that in the TRT alone group (P < 0.05).The median OS was improved in patients treated with concurrent or sequential therapy than in the TRT alone group (P < 0.05).N stage,chemotherapy regimens,and radiotherapy modalities were independent prognostic factors of PFS in all patients (P <0.05).Similarly,N stage was an independent prognostic factor of OS in all patients (P < 0.05).Overall,the treatment was deemed safe.The occurrence of hematotoxicity related to Karnofsky performance score (KPS) and chemotherapy regimens (P < 0.05).Conclusion Patients with a lower N stage who received cisplatin-based double chemoradiotherapy demonstrated improved survival rates.Survival was significantly improved in LA-NSCLC patients treated with concurrent or sequential therapies compared with TRT alone.Overall,the treatment is safe.KPS and chemotherapy combination regimens may increase the occurrence of hematotoxicity.
