Objective To investigate the clinical application value of ultrasound-guided catheter drainage and vacuum-assisted Mammotome system in the treatment of lactational breast abscess. Methods The clinical data of 46 patients with lactational breast abscesses were analyzed retrospectively. All patients were divided into control group (28 patients) and treatment group (18 patients). Homemade irrigation and drainage tube was used in control group,and vacuum-assisted Mammotome system was used in treatment group. The curative effect of 2 groups was compared. Results All patients were cured. The mean healing time in treatment group was (9.5 ± 1.3) d,in control group was (12.5 ± 2.2) d, and there was significant difference (P < 0.01). The rate of breast-feeding in control group was 57.1% (16/28), in treatment group was 13/18,and there was no significant difference (χ2=1.069, P>0.05). All patients recovered well without recurrence. Conclusions Ultrasound-guided catheter drainage should be employed as first line treatment of breast abscess with diameter greater than the 3 cm. If patient′s economic conditions are good and have high requirement on the beauty outcome, vacuum-assisted Mammotome system can be applied as treatment option.

Objective To investigate the changes in gastric intramucosal pH (pHi) and the effect of propofol on microcirculatory perfusion after myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in rabbits. Methods Twenty healthy adult rabbits of both sexes, weighing 2.0-2.7kg were randomly divided into two groups: A control group (n=10) and B propofol group (n = 10) . The animals were anesthetized with 2% sodium pentothal iv. Anesthesia was maintained with intermittent iv boluses of fentanyl and vecuronium. The animals were tracheotomized and mechanically ventilated during fluid and propofol infusion. PaCO2 was maintained at 35-40 mm Hg. Right internal jugular vein was cannulated for fluid and propofol infusion. Left carotid artery was cannulated for BP and HR monitoring and blood sampling. TRIP tonometry catheter (14F) was placed in the stomach. Lactated Ringer's solution was infused at 6-8 ml-kg-1 h-1 during experiment. In group B propofol was infused at 5mg-kg-1-h-1 when BP and HR were stabilized for 10 min, chest was opened and heart exposed. Left anterior descending artery (LAD) was tied for 60 min and then released for reperfusion. Hemodynamics and pHi were measured before myocardial ischemia (T0) , 60 min after myocardial ischemia (T1), 60 min (T2), 90min (T3) and 180min (T4) after reperfusion was started. Results There was no significant difference in BP and HR from T0 to T4 between the two groups. pHi decreased significantly after myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury in both groups. pHi was significantly lower at T3 in propofol group than that in control group (P

Kaino-sinus syndrome is one new complication of endoscopic sinus surgery. The patient had an operation of endoscopic surgery, because he was suffered from an illness of frontal nasal inverted papilloma again. After operation he was suffering pain in left epicanthal folds and frontal part, and had dry scab in nasal cavity when he breathed cold air. The symptoms could relieve by blocking prenaris. We found he had a big aperture of frontal sinus and dry scab in nasal endoscopic examination. His symptoms disappeared after cleaning and washing accessory nasal cavity by salt water.

Objective To evaluate the clinical application of enhancement scan and angiography of dual-source computed tomography (CT) in purulent meningitis.Methods The clinical data,imaging data of enhancement scan and angiography of dual-source CT of 8 cases with purulent meningitis were analyzed retrospectively.Results There was linear or bead-like high intensity enhancement of different degree around the cistern,groove or the cerebral vessels in 6 cases,especially around the basal cistern and ambient cistern; a ring-like enhancement was shown in the temporal lobe in 1 case; fusiform change of the cerebral arteries was shown in angiography of dual-source CT in 2 cases.Conclusion Enhancement scan and angiography of dual-source CT is valuable for early diagnosis of purulent meningitis and improve the diagnosis rate.

OBJECTIVE To study the clinical and radiological characteristics of jugular foramen tumors.METHODS The clinical data of 32 patients with tumors of jugular foramen region treated from May 2006 to December 2009 were retrospectively reviewed.All patients were referred to systematic imaging examination of the temporal bone,such as CT(X-ray computed tomography) and MRI(magnetic resonance).Twenty two patients were further examined by angiography and embo1ized 24 hours before operation.Thirty one patients underwent different operations via different approaches, while one patient with glomus jugular tumor didn't receive operation because of fever caused by sigmoid sinus thrombophlebitis.According to pathologic examination, 21 cases were glomus jugular tumors, 10 cranial nerve neurilemmomas.RESULTS In the 32 cases, the major initial clinical symptoms of jugular foramen tumors were tinnitus,hearing loss and facial palsy.Bone erosion and the "salt and pepper" sign were the characteristic appearance of glomus jugular tumor.Neurilemmoma showed compressive bone change, cystic area and moderate enhancement on CT.CONCLUSION The combination of CT and MRI examination is benefit for both diagnosis and the choice of surgical plan.

Objective:To investigate the surgical treatment of adult Hirschsprung's disease (AHD). Methods: A retrospective clinical analysis was proceeded in 7 cases of AHD treated in our hospital from January 2003 to May 2008. There were 3 males and 4 females with an age ranged from 18 to 53 years,including three cases with general segment type,two cases with short segment type,one case with long segment type and one case with whole segment type. All cases were received the modified Duhamel operation. Results: All cases had satisfactory outcome without serious complications,such as soiling, blind pouch syndrome, fecal incontinence and sexual disorder in male patients. Pelvic hydrops occurred in one case and anastomotic inflammation occurred in another case,and both were cured by intensive therapy. Conclusion: The Modified Duhamel Operation is an effective and safe procedure for AHD. Through this procedure the postoperative recurrence rate is reduced, as well the sexual function and the defecate function are remained .

OBJECTIVE To investigate the feasibility of determining the maximum comfortabl level by using the acoustically evoked stapedius reflex threshold via cochlear implant. METHODS Eleve cases of Nucleus C124 cochlear implant recipients operated in our hospital were selected(8-39 years old, who can decide TIC value by themselves with the postoperative time ranging from device initiation to 1 year after operation),of those four cases were diagnosed as bilateral large vestibular aqueduct syndrome,1 case as common cavity dysplasia,.neural response telemetry of these five patients with inner ear dysplasia were very high or barely measurable.Real-MCL level and acoustically evoked stapedius reflex threshold under activated condition were measured respectively. The stimulating sound was 110dB of white noise.RESULTS The two group values of ASRT and real-MCL were found to be consistant .There is no significant difference statistically (P＞0.05). The thresholds of ASR increase with the increasing of real-MCL at the beginning of device initiation. CONCLUSION The acoustically evoked stapedius reflex threshold may reflect (ASRT) the maximum comfortable stimulation level under activated conditions in patients with cochlear implants.it is simple, reliable and may be used to determine the MCL of child cochlear implanted patients.
