Objective To evaluate the value of CT scan in diagnosing non-intestinal lesions on the right lower abdomen.Methods CT scan was performed in 70 patients with clinically supected non-intestinal lesions in the right lower abdomen.The diagnosis was confirmed by surgery or biospy in all cases,except 1 case of nephroptosis.Results 41 cases were benign lesions,which appeared as cystic or solid masses with definite bound on plain CT scans and were slight or middle enhanced on contrast enhanced CT scans,but abscess and tuberculosis were showed peripheral or multilocular enhancement with indistinct bound.The remaining 29 cases were malignant masses which presented as large irregular soft tissue mass and inhomogenous enhancement.Conclusion CT scan of certain is value in diagnosis and differential diagnosis of non-intestinal lesions of right lower abdomen.

Objective To study the diagnosis,treatment and therapeutic results of 11 patients who suffered from mucinous tumor of the bile duct.Methods Eleven patients who were diagnosed to suffer from mucinous tumor of the bile duct were retrospectively studied.Three patients who presented with obstructive jaundice were diagnosed on ERCP,and 8 patients who had extra-and intrahepatic cholangiolithiasis were diagnosed by biopsy during choledochoscopy.Results One of the 3 patients who underwent ERCP died from obstructive jaundice after failed drainage of bile using endoscopic nasobiliary drainage (ENBD).The remaining two patients underwent laparoscopic common bile duct exploration and T tube drainage.The eight patients who had extra-and intrahepatic cholangiolithiasis were diagnosed by biopsy during choledochoscopy.Conclusions The clinical presentation of mucinous tumor of bile duct is non-specific and the preoperative misdiagnosis rate is high.Common bile duct exploration,T tube drainage and long-term T tube drainage is a good way to treat mucinous tumor of the bile duct.

Objectives:To observe the effect of eukaryotic expression vectors coding IL-2 and IL-12 on immune responses induced by DNA immunization of HBV surface antigen(pCR3.1-S)in BABL/c(H-2d) and the protection against P815 mastocytoma cells stable expressing HBV surface antigen in mice after immunized with HBV gene vaccine.Methods:The immunization was performed by intramuscular injection,three weeks later,we directly inoculated P815-HBV-S into mice by subcutaneous injection .Tumor growth was measured every five days.Anti-HBs in serum was detected by ELISA and HBsAg specific cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTLs) activity was measured by 51 Chromium release assay.Results:Eight weeks after immunization,the A value of mice serum in 450 nm and CTLs activity of mice codiog IL-2 and IL-12 eukaryotic expression vectors were significant higher(P<0.05) than that of mice intramuscular injected HBV-S DNA vaccine,these values are significant higher than that of mice injected pCR3.1(P<0.05).The spleen cells CTLs activity have decreased obviously after treated with anti-CD8+ monoclonal antibody and have no significant change after treated with anti-CD4+ monoclonal antibody.The HBV-S gene vaccine could evidently inhibit the tumor growth,prolong the survival period (>38.2 days) and improve the survival rate in mice.Conclusions:The DNA vaccine of HBV ( pCR3.1-S) had strong antigenicity in cellular and humoral immunity and had marked killing effect on HBV infected cells in vivo,which could be promoted by vector coding murine IL-2 or IL-12.CTLs activity was performed by CD8+ cells.

ObjectiveTo investigate the effects of exogenous transforming growth factor β1 on the apoptosis of nerve cells and its functions following spinal cord injury in rats.MethodsNinety-six male Wistar rats were randomly divided into 4 groups:group A(control group),group B(spinal cord injured group),group C (spinal cord injuried +TGF-β1 treated group),group D (spinal cord injuried +anti-TGF-β1 treated group).The rat model of spinal cord injury was found by the Allen's method.In group C and D,drugs were injected into subarachnoid cavity continuously by minipump.The changes of spinal cord were observed by HE staining.Nerve cells apoptosis was detected by transferase-medi-ated dUTP nick end labeling (TNUEL) method and the expression of cell apoptosis factor Fas by immunohistochemistry staining.Functional recovery of hind limbs was measured by Basso-Beattie-Bresnahan locomotor open field behavioral rating test.ResultsThe expression of TGF-β1and Fas increased following spinal cord injury.The amount of TGF-β1and Fas reached the peak 7days and 1day after injury.The apoptosis of neuron had increased and peaked 8 hours after injury.The apoptosis of neuroglia cells had increased and peaked 7 dayss after injury.The slight changes was found in spinal cord in group C.Both of the number of apoptosis of nerve cells and expression of the apoptosis factor (Fas) decreased significantly; compare with group B and D.The BBB score was higher in group C than that in group B and D.ConclusionTGF-β1 can improve the functional recovery of spinal cord by inhibiting the nerve cell apoptosis after the spinal cord injury.

The clinical data of 143 patients with type Ⅱ a hepatolithiasis with normal function of the sphincter of Oddi were analyzed.The patients were divided into two groups at random.The data of the 2 groups of patients were compared on the operating time,hospitalization,rates of complication,residual stone rates and recurrence rates.The A group patients underwent laparoscopic video choledochoscopic hepaticocholangiolithotomy,T-tube drainage and choledochoscopic lithotomy.The B group patients underwent laparoscopic video hepatectomy and choledochoscopic lithotomy.For most of the patients in the A group,the treatment had the advantages of less trauma,less complications and quicker recovery.There was no significant differences in residual stone rates and recurrence rates between the two groups.As it was difficult to remove stones in the caudate lobes of Ⅱ a type patients in A group due to the sharp angle between the hepatic duct and bile ducts of the caudate lobe,individualized programs should be adopted according to the location of stones on individual patients.

Objective:To investigate the effect of posterior nasal neurectomy(PNN) with pharyngeal neurectomy (PN) on chronic sinusitis with nasal polyps (CRSwNP)complicated with perennial allergic rhinitis (PAR). Methods:83 patients with perennial allergic rhinitis combined with chronic group-wide sinusitis with nasal polyps who attended our hospital from July 2020 to July 2021 were selected. All patients underwent conventional functional endoscopic sinusitis surgery(FESS)+ nasal polypectomy. Patients were divided according to whether they underwent PNN+PN. 38 cases in the experimental group underwent FESS combined with PNN+PN; 44 cases in the control group underwent conventional FESS alone. All patients underwent the VAS, RQLQ, and MLK before treatment, and at 6 months and 1 year after surgery. Meanwhile, other relevant data were collected and the preoperative and postoperative follow-up data were collected and analyzed to assess the differences between the two groups. Results:The total postoperative follow-up period was 1 year. The recurrence rate of nasal polyps at 1 year postoperatively and the nasal congestion VAS score at 6 months postoperatively were not statistically significant in the two groups(P>0.05). However, the patients in the experimental group had statistically significantly lower effusion and sneezing VAS scores, MLK endoscopy scores and RQLQ scores at 6 months and 1 year postoperatively, and nasal congestion VAS scores at 1 year postoperatively compared to the control group(P<0.05). Conclusion:For patients with perennial AR complicated with CRSwNP, the combination of the PNN+PN in FESS can significantly improve the short-term curative effect, and PNN+PN is a safe and effective surgical treatment.
