Objective To evaluate the method and result of thyroid artery embolization as a new therapy for hyperthyroidism. Methods Twenty two patients with hyperthyroidism underwent selective thyroid artery embolization. Totally 52 thyroid arteries were embolized with microspheres. The indications to this therapy were following: hyperthyroid patients having indications to surgical and 131 I therapy, clinically being difficult to complete the preparation for subtotal thyroidectomy and having high risk for surgical process because of their huge thyroid gland. Results Serum level of thyroid hormones dropped significantly [median T3 from 8 8 nmol/L(4 3~ 43 0 nmol/L) to 4 0 nmol/L(1 1~9 2 nmol/L), median T4 from 206 4 nmol/L(77 4~748 2 nmol/L) to 144 5 nmol/L(25 8~279 9 nmol/L), P
3.Retrospective Analysis of 17 Family Homicide Cases.
Journal of Forensic Medicine 2016;32(6):431-433
OBJECTIVES:
To summarize the characteristics of family homicide cases and to provide reference for the analysis and prevention of such cases.
METHODS:
Seventeen solved family homicide cases in Liyang from 2004 to 2014 were investigated. The original registration information, record of scene investigation, corpse inspection report and case situation were analyzed statistically.
RESULTS:
The characteristics of the 17 family homicides cases showed that most victims were female and most suspects were male, and spouse infidelity and suspected spouse infidelity have higher proportion in the motives for the killings. Murders by patients with psychosis, camouflage murders and murder-suicides occupied a certain proportion in the family homicide cases.
CONCLUSIONS
The family homicide cases are correlated with the family factors such as extramarital sexual intercourse and murder by patients with psychosis. Some suspects suicided after murder. The tools for committing crimes have the features of simplicity, randomness and easy source availability.

Objective To investigate the value of percutaneous transsplenic varices embolization (PTSVE) for treatment of upper gastrointestinal bleeding. Methods Twenty cases with liver cirrhosis and portal hypertension suffered upper gastrointestinal bleeding. PTSVE was administered to them with hardener and coils. Among them, 8 cases had massive hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) in right lobe; 10 cases with hepatocellular carcinoma had portal vein tumor thrombus and occlusion; the other two cases with liver cirrhosis had portal vein thrombosis. All of these cases were not suitable for percutaneous transhepatic varices embolization (PTHVE) . PTSVE was performed under the guidance of fluoroscopy. Results Technical success was achieved in 18 patients. A total of 35 gastric coronary veins were embolized. In all these cases, upper gastrointestinal bleeding stopped after PTSVE. There was no recurrence within 1 month follow-up. No serious complication occurred. Conclusion PTSVE is a safe and efficient alternative treatment for upper gastrointestinal bleeding, especially for cases with portal vein occlusion or with massive HCC in right lobe of liver.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of DSA for micro hepatocelluar carcinoma(MHCC)in patients with hepatic cirrhosis. Methods Three hundred and fourty cases of hepatic cirrhosis who were going to receive bone marrow stem cells transplantation via hepatic artery underwent hepatic arterial DSA. No definite evidence of hepatoma had been found during the former CT scan and ultrasound test in these patients. Multi-angle projection DSA was performed to display the characteristics of MHCC and super-selective TACE treatment was given in cases of the diagnosed MHCC. Results MHCC were found by DSA in 20 cases who were all of post-hepatitis B cirrhosis and with single-lesion of sized 0.4 - 1.0 cm. DSA showed the characteristics of nodular stains in early or middle arterial phase in angiography. 18 lesions were in the right lobe and 2 in the left lobe. AFP were negative in 16 cases and positive in 4 cases. Super-selective segmental TACE were performed with micro catheter system for the treatment. Conclusions DSA is more sensitive to detect MHCC in the patients with hepatic cirrhosis, comparing with regular contrasted CT scan or ultrasound.

Objective To evaluate interventional techniques for the treatment of visceral aneurysms. Methods A total of 11 aneurysms were found in 9 patients with visceral aneurysms who received interventional treatment. Of the 9 patients, single aneurysm at both superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and right colonic artery was seen in one, 2 aneurysms at same splenic artery in one, one aneurysm at splenic artery in 5, aneurysm at right gastric artery in one and pseudoaneurysm at hepatic artery in one. In 9 patients the transcatheter endovascular coil embolization was successfully carried out for 10 aneurysms, including splenic (n = 7), right colonic artery (n = 1), right gastric artery (n = 1) and hepatic pseudoaneurysm (n = 1). One stent-graft was used for the SMA aneurysm. Results Technical success was achieved in all cases without any serious complications. Conclusion Interventional embolization with coils can successfully occlude most visceral aneurysms, while stent-graft should be used when the aneurysm is difficult to be occluded with coil.

Objective To explore the feasibility and proper technique of subintimal racanalization in treating chronic aorto-iliac artery occlusion. Methods Subintimal racanalization via right brachial artery access was performed in a 57-years-old man with chronic total occlusion of aorto-iliac artery. Subintimal pathways were created with two hydrophilic guidwires (Teromo), which were inserted into the subintimal space from the occluded end of the abdominal aorta and got into the right and left external iliac arteries separately. Subintimal arterial flossing with antegrade-retrograde intervention was employed in left side to overcome the difficulty in reentering the true lumen. The exchange guidwires were conducted out of the femoral artery puncture sites on both sides in sequence, in this way the bilateral femoral pathways were established. Aorto-iliac artery balloon angioplasty and retrograde stent implantation, including one aortal and 5 iliac stents, were carried out by kissing technique from the femoral site. Results The aorto-iliac artery lumen was successfully reopened after the procedure. The internal lumen shape of the stents was satisfactory and the blood flow was unobstructed. The ischemic symptoms of the lower extremities disappeared completely. The ankle brachial index (ABI) rose from 0.32 to 0.96, and the condition remained stable in a follow-up period of 10 months. Conclusion Subintimal racanalization therapy is practical and safe for treating total aorto-iliac artery occlusion, especially for the patients with chronic arterial sclerosis.
