ObjectiveTo explore the contrast-enhanced ultrasonography features of postpartum placenta implantation and its clinical value in diagnosis of postpartum placenta implantation.MethodsBetween April 2009 and May 2013, twelve patients with clinically suspected placenta implantation underwent contrast-enhanced ultrasonography in Hubei Maternal and Child Health Hospital. The location and extent of intrauterine lesions and perfusion features of contrast agent were observed. The contrast-enhanced ultrasonography features of postpartum placenta implantation were analyzed and compared with postoperative pathological diagnosis.ResultsIn twelve patients with placenta implantation, eleven showed enhancement. Only one lesion showed no enhancement, which was diagnosed as placental degeneration and calcification on postoperative pathology. One case was placenta adhesions conifrmed by postoperative pathological diagnosis, which presented with a hyperenhanced lesion in uterine cavity with a clear boundary to myometrium. Six cases were placenta implantation confirmed by postoperative pathological diagnosis, which presented with a residual placenta surrounded with extremely thin or evendiscontinuous uterine serosa. Five cases were placenta penetration confirmed by postoperative pathological diagnosis, which presented with a residual placenta penetrating the uterine serosa and contrast agent spilling out. All cases in this study were cured by operation.ConclusionsContrast-enhanced ultrasound could diagnose placenta implantation via the difference of tissue perfusion. The lesion of placenta implantation showed enhancement after injection of contrast agent. If discontinuous uterine serosa and contrast agent spilling was observed, placenta penetrating uterine serosa should be considered. Contrast-enhanced ultrasound has important clinical value in diagnosing postpartum placenta implantation and observing postoperative recovery processes of uterine rupture.

This study was aimed to observe the effect of gold buckwheat fermented tea on both acute and chronic inflammation in mice. Ear swelling was induced by xylene. Toe swelling was induced by carrageenan. The acute inflammation model was induced by the increasing of capillary permeability in the abdomen of mice by acetic acid. The chronic inflammation model of granuloma was used in the evaluation of anti-inflammatory function of gold buckwheat fermented tea. The results showed that the gold buckwheat fermented tea can obviously decrease the rate of xylene-induced ear swelling and the degree of carrageenan-induced toe swelling in mice. And the gold buckwheat fermented tea had antagonism effect on acute inflammation caused by acetic acid through the increasing of capillary permeability in abdomen of mice. Furthermore, the gold buckwheat fermented tea had obvious inhibition effects on proliferation of granuloma in chronic inflammation. It was concluded that the gold buckwheat fermented tea had the prevention and treatment effect on both acute and chronic inflammation.
