Tianjin Medical Journal 2009;37(7):568-570
Objective: To observe the clinical outcome of surgical treatment for malignant thymoma,and evaluate the prognostic factors thereof. Mothods:All patients (63 eases)were operated and followed by radiotherapy. The Logistie regression analysis was used for the relationship between the prognosis, Masaoka staging,L/B pathology ,and the differences of the operation given.Rosults:Patients with early Masaoka stage and who received radical resection of thymoma had higher 3 and 5 year survival rates (P<0.05).The radiotherapy after surgery was related to 3 and 5 year survival rates. The differences of L/B pathology was not related to 3 and 5 year survival rates.Conclusion :The survival rate is enhanced for patients with malignant thymoma when both surgical and radiotherapy intervention axe given as early as possible.The Masaoka staging, not L/B pathology, is closely related to the prognosis.

Objective To investigate the association between drainage volume and removal of chest tube after video-as?sisted thoracoscopic surgery(VATS) lobectomy. Methods Patients with VATS were randomly divided into three groups:the drainage volume was less than 100 mL/24 h (group A), the drainage volume was more than 100 mL/24 h but less than 200 mL/24 h(group B) and the drainage volume was more than 200 mL/24 h but less than 300 mL/24 h (group C). According to in?clusion criteria and exclusion criteria, finally there were 90 patients in group A, 87 patients in group B and 83 patients in group C. The duration of chest-tube drainage, the occurrence of pulmonary infection, pulmonary atelectasis, pneumothorax, hydrothorax, seepage or delayed union after removal of chest tube, the dosage of analgesic and the length of hospital stay af?ter surgery were recorded. Data were analyzed statistically. Results The average durations of chest-tube drainage were (91.76±15.59)h, (84.17±18.33)h and (56.14±12.25)h, the average morphine consumptions were (236.82±67.20)mg, (187.36± 76.64)mg and (139.29±52.74)mg, and the average lengths of hospital stay after surgery were (11.47±1.90)d, (10.68±2.50)d and (10.23 ± 2.14)d for three groups of patients, respectively. And the indexes in group C were distinctly lower than those in group A and group B (P<0.05). There were no significant differences in pulmonary atelectasis, the occurrence of postopera?tive pulmonary infection, pneumothorax, hydrothorax, seepage or delayed union after removal of chest tubes between three groups of patients (P > 0.05). Conclusion It is safe and acceptable that the removal of chest tube after VATS when the drainage volume reaches 300 mL within 24 h.

The stereoscopic orientation of the lumbar zygapophyseal joints and the stability triangle of the motion segments were studied on 56 sets of adult lumbosacral skeletons. The orientation of the lumbar zygapophyseal joints changed gradually from about sagittal plane in upper segment to about coronal in lower. The gravity center of the stability triangle of the motion segments moved backward from upper to ower progressively. Therefore, the stability of lumbar spine decreases and the mobility increases successively from upper downward.

The architecture of the specialized myocardial fibers of the atrioventricular junction area(AVJ) were observed under microscope on serial sections. It was found that the human A-V node extend backward divergently to form two posterior extensions (left and right, LPE, RPE). The A-V node can be divided into a superficial layer and a deep layer, and the deep layer further divided into a upper part and a lower part. The fibers in the superficial layer are vertical, and join with the lower part of the deep layer at the anterior extremity of the node. The lower part of the deep layer is the main axis of the node. The fibers in the lower part of the deep layer are longitudinal, and join with the RPE at the posterior extremity of the node. The fibers in the upper part of the deep layer are oblique and join with the LPE at the posterior extremity of the node, and mix with the lower part at the anterior extremity. The longitudinal dissociation of the anterior part of the His bundle is more distinct than that of the posterior part. The lower-left part of the bifurcating part of the bundle extend to form the posterior left branch, the upper-left and upper-middle parts of the bifurcating part extend to form the anterior left branch, and the right part and lower-middle part of the bifurcating part extend to form the right bundle branch. The morphological evidence of the dual or multiple conducting pathways, the longitudinal dissociation and the reentry pathways in the AVJ were discussed.
