Objective To analyze MRI findings and its clinical significance in complications of polyamide hydrogel injection for augmentation mammoplasty. Methods The complication findings of MR imaging in 20 cases with polyamide hydrogel injection for augmentation mammoplasty were retrospectively reviewed and analyzed. Results In 20 patients, 26 breasts suffered from complications, including infection (n=5) with pieces of long T_1and long T_2 signals, aseptic inflammation (n=2) with pieces of slight long T_1and moderate T_2 signals, hard nodule (n=10) with long T_1 and long T_2 signals, and rupture (n=5) with pieces and nodes of long T_1 and long T_2 signals on MR images. Conclusion MRI has the great diagnostic value in the detection of complications after polyamide hydrogel injection for augmentation mammoplasty, and it should be taken as the first diagnostic choice.

Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of Achilles tendon rupture by using X-ray plain films and MR images. Methods The plain films and MRI findings in 21 patients with operation proved acute Achilles tendon rupture were analyzed, and every manifestation on MR and operation were compared.Results The Achilles tendon rupture was diagnosed on MRI in all 21 cases. Complete rupture of Achilles tendon was showed in 7 and partial rupture in 14. MRI appearance of the rupture represented as thickening of Achilles tendon, hyperintensity in the tendon, and completely or partly discontinuance of the fibrous bundle. X-ray showed Achilles tendon rupture in 5, suspicious rupture in 12, and normal in 4. Operation showed Achilles tendon complete rupture in 9 and partial rupture in 12.Conclusion MRI can accurately show the degree and location of acute Achilles tendon rupture, which is very helpful for treatment. X-ray is the adminicular method in detecting Achilles tendon rupture and the diagnosis should be depended on MRI to confirm the the acute Achilles tendon rupture.

Objective To explore the embolization technique,embolus choice and preventing complications of transcatheter internal iliac artery embolization in treating pelvis massive hemorrhage.Methods Bilateral selective internal iliac artery embolization utilizing gelfoam was done in 11 patients of pelvis massive hemorrhage (including 3 cases of bladder carcinoma,5 cases of cervix carcinoma,one case of choriocarcinoma and 2 cases of puerperal hemorrhage.Results Prompt hemostasis was obtained immediately after first embolization in all 11 patients,one of them showed recurrent bleeding after 24 hours and underwent treatment again.Patients were followed up for 10~90 days,no hemorrhage or any kind of complication noted in all patients.Conclusion Transcatheter internal iliac artery embolization is a simple,less invasive,safe and effective therapy for pelvis massive hemorrhage,should be taken as the first choice.

Objective To study the methods,therapeutic effect and complications of transcatheter uterine artery embolization(TUAE)for hysteromyoma.Methods There were 82 patients with hysteromyoma confirmed by clinical,color Doppler ultrasound and CT in this study.Among them,5 hysteromyoma located under mucous membrane,72 in the myometrium,5 under serous membrane.15 cases were single hysteromyoma,67 were multiple hysteromyoma.Bilateral uterine arteries were embolized with lipiodol-pingyangmycin emulsion(LPE)and Gelfoam particles using Seldinger technique.All patients were followed up for 3 to 6 months.Results The successful rate of catheterization almost reached 100%.B-mode ultrasound examination 3 months after the procedure showed averagely 51% of decrease in volume of the masses and decrease of blood flow of tumors in all cases,the volume of tumors decreased 43% and 19 hysteromyoma disappeared for 6 months later.Menses returned to regular cycle.In the patients with anemia,the hemoglobin concentration recovered to normal level.The rate of complication was 6%(5/82),and recovered to normal after special treatment.Conclusion TUAE is an effective and less invasive way to treat hysteromyoma,the complications of TUAE are preventable and curable.

Objective To study the clinical value of DSA diagnosis and interventional therapy for non-neoplastic lower digestive tract hemorrhage. Methods Non-neoplastic lower digestive tract hemorrhage were diagnosed in 21 patients. Eight cases underwent embolization with gelfoam and 13 cases with infusion of pitressin. Results Intestinal angiodysplasia was found in 14 cases, colonic diverticulum in 2 and hemorrhage of unknown cause in 5. Hemorrhage in all patients was stopped after the interventional therapy with no serious complications. During the follow-up of 25～74 months, intestinal angiodysplasia bleeding recurred in 4 patients. Conclusions DSA is very helpful in the diagnosis of non-neoplastic lower digestive tract hemorrhage and interventional therapy is safe and effective for the stoppage of the bleeding.

Objective To analyze the diversity of salivary bacteria in patients with nonalcoholic fatty liv-er disease(NAFLD group)and healthy control group(HC group). Methods Saliva samples were collected from 24 patients with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease and 22 healthy control.Genomic DNA of the samples was extracted and extended to 16S rRNA V4-V5 hypervariable region after PCR with Illumina high-throughput sequencing tech-nology.All the data,including operational taxonomic units,diversity indexes and species annotation,etc.was ana-lyzed. Results 39118 optimized sequences in the saliva of each group were obtained,including nonalcoholic fatty liver group clustering OTUs about 308 ± 48 and healthy control group clustering OTUs about 305 ± 53.The diversi-ty analysis of NAFLD group and HC group showed that there was little difference in diversity of the whole salivary bacteria.The data of the species analysis of the saliva bacteria in two group indicate that the composition was simi-lar and the relative abundance was different in phylum and genus.In NAFLD group,the ratio of the abundance of firmicutes(20.42%)increased and the proportion of bacteroides(36.75%)decreased in phylum. Genus of the NAFLD group,the ratio of fusobacterium,porphyromonas and veillonella increased significantly,and the ratio of prevotella and[Prevotella]decreased.Conclusion In the NAFLD group,the abundance of firmicutes increased, and the abundance of the bacteria decreased.It was speculated that the imbalance of the salivary bacteria is associ-ated with nonalcoholic fatty liver disease.
