Objective To study the clinical diagnosis value of the combination application of CT perfusion(CTP) and CT angiography (CTA) in cerebrovascular diseases. Methods 20 patients suspected of cerebrovascular diseases(CVD) were examined with CTP and CTA. All the CTA data were send to 3D post processing card for MIP, SSD and VR reconstruction. Perfusion data were analyzed by CT perfusion package. The absolute TTP, MTT, CBV, CBF values and the relative value between normal and pathological sides were calculated.Results Low perfusion which indicated the prophase of ischemia infarction were detected in 15 cases, 12 cases were located in MCA area, and 10 of them the stenosis of responsible arteries were demonstrated. The degree of the vessel stenosis can be evaluated exactly by CTA source images. Other 5 cases were located in the area of PCA and no positive detection in CTA examination.Conclusion Combined application of CTP and CTA can finish two examinations at the same time in the fast and economic way. Both the hemodynamics changing and the morphology of the vessels were demonstrated which providing omnidirectional pathophysiological information for clinical diagnosis and therapy.

Objective To investigate the progress of pathology of the perihematomal tissue, and to study the relationship between the pathology and the changes of regional cerebral blood flow after intracerebral hemorrhage(ICH) in rats. Methods ICH was produced by microinjection of fresh autologous blood into the right caudatum in rats. CT perfusion imaging and computer-aided mapping in measurements of regional cerebral blood flow adjacent to the hematomas were performed in seventy SD rats at 1h, 3h, 6h, 12h, 24h, 48h and 72h respectively after the ICH. The parameters of regional cerebral blood flow(rCBF), regional cerebral blood volume(rCBV) and mean transit time(MTT) were calculated respectively. After the CT examination, the histopathological examination of TTC, HE and ultrastructure staining were carried out. Results The gradient of perihematomal hypoperfusion was revealed on CT perfusion maps. The rCBF and rCBV around the hematomas reduced pronouncedly, and the MTT delayed. TTC staining did not show infarction around the hematoma. Histopathological study demonstrated the astrocytic swelling and neuronal degeneration in the peri-ICH regions. The inflammory cell infiltration and capillaries hyperplasia were also observed around the ICH. Under the electronic microscope, the pathological changes of ultrastructure were revealed. In the early stage of ICH, there existed swelling of astrocytes, loosing of myelin sheath lamina, but no clear changes occurred in neurons. With the delay of ICH, the cellular injury around hematomas exacerbated progressively, more swelling of astrocytes, slight degeneration of neurons and local fragmentation of myelin sheath lamina were observed.Conclusion The perihemorrhagic and distant ischemic injury can be induced by the pronounced reduction of cerebral blood flow in the early stage of ICH. The cellular injury around hematomas exacerbates progressively in the acute stage of ICH. There is a perihematomal penumbra affecting multiple mechanisms of cellular injury.

Objective To explore the transformation of three-dimensional curve,and to observe effect of three-dimensional remodeling surgery in order to find an ideal method to achieve upper eyelid rejuvenation.Methods Retrospective analysis was conducted after surgical correction for three-dimensional reconstruction in 48 patients with upper eyelid that were female,aged 58 to 76 years;all of them had simultaneous surgery of both eyes.Using double eyelid crease incision to remove loose and redundant skin,we transplanted the herniated fat of the medial orbital septum to the deep surface of the orbicularis oculi muscle in the distinct bony structure of the extra-supraorbital margin,folded and lifted orbital septum fascia;at the same time lifted eyebrow through eyebrow incision,transplanted and filled dermis and muscle fascia flap to remodel the transverse S-shaped stereo curve of the coronal plane of the upper eyelid.Results A lot of 41 cases were followed up more than 6 months from 48 patients,except that one patient had a second surgery due to double eyelid asymmetry after one year,eyelid rejuvenation in 40 patients were improveed.Effect of 33 cases was satisfactory.Satisfaction rate was 80.49%.Less satisfaction were 6 cases,accounting for 14.63%.No satisfaction was 1 case,ac counting for 2.44 %.Conclusions The surgery can reshape the concavity inside,the full crown outside of upper eyelid by the skin removing,fat shifting,leather fat muscle flap filling,and restore the upper eyelid to three-dimensional full round young shape.It is an ideal surgical method for eye anti-aging treatment.

Objective:To explore a new method for correcting the senile blepharochalasis and depression of the upper eyelid.Methods:Fourteen female patients with blepharochalasis and depression of upper eyelid were treated with subcutaneous tissue flap filling during eyebrow lifting. The under-eyebrow incision was used to remove the loose skin and lift the eyebrow, and a subcutaneous tissue flap was made to fill up the upper eyelid depression.Results:All the incisions were healed in one stage without complications such as infection and subcutaneous hematoma. 12 patients were followed up for more than 6 months. In the 3rd month after operation, 1 patient had obvious scar under the eyebrow, 1 patient had skin traction wrinkles at the eyebrow. After 6 months, the incision scar was not obvious in all patients, the appearance of eyebrow ptosis was eliminated, the upper eyelid was smooth and flat, and no absorption and further depression of the upper filler were observed; the effect was satisfactory.Conclusions:The eyebrow lifting combined with the subcutaneous tissue flap filling to correct the senile upper eyelid chalasis and depression is significantly effective with less trauma and complications, and it is worthy to be promoted.
