Objective To summarize the clinical experiences and efficacy of laparoscopic total extraperitoneal repair(TEP) for inguinal hernia.Methods From April 2004 to August 2006,294 TEP operations was performed on 269 patients with inguinal hernia by using laparoscopy under epidural or general anesthesia.Among the patients,175 had indirect hernia,40 direct hernias,25 bilateral hernias,and 29 recurrent hernias.Results The operation was completed without converting to open surgeries in all the cases.The mean operation time was(63.1?37.5) min,blood loss(12.3 ?8.2) ml,and hospital stay(3.7 ?1.4) d.Of the patients,24 had peritoneal tearing(8.2%,24/269),4 had groin hematoma(2.4%,4/269),and 2 had foreign body sensation(0.7%,2/269).The patients were followed up for 6-12 months(median,9 months),the recurrence rate was 1.0%(3/294). Conclusion Laparoscopic TEP is safe and effective for patients with inguinal hernia.

Objective To summarize our experience on laparoscopic splenectomy with amputation of the secondary spleen pedicle. Methods From September 2006 to May 2007, laparoscopic splenectomy with amputation of the secondary spleen pedicle was performed on 13 patients, including 5 cases of traumatic spleen rupture, 2 idiopathic thrombocytopenic purpura, and 6 hypersplenism. Results All the operations were completed under a laparoscope without using hand-assisted procedures. The intraoperative blood loss was 50-800 ml (mean, 350 ml), and the operation time was 150-300 min (mean, 210 min). No complications occurred during and after the operation. The average postoperative hospital stay was 5-9 d (mean, 7.5 d). The patients were followed up for 1-6 months, during which all the patients had normal platelet count. Conclusions Laparoscopic splenectomy with amputation of the secondary spleen pedicle is a feasible, minimally invasive, safe and low-cost procedure.

Objective To investigate the effect of Xingnaojing injection solution in treating severe burn patients with sepsis. Methods 41 cases of burn patients with sepsis were randomly divided into experimental group and control group. The experimental group were intravenously injected 40ml/day Xingnaojing injection solution for 7 days. The control group received routine therapy. Bacteria counts in burn wound, the survival rate of the patients and the positive rate of blood culture in the both groups were determined and compared. Results The experimental group had significantly lower bacteria counts in burn wound compared with the control group, and the negative blood culture rate and patient's survival rate in the experimental group were also obviously higher than those in the control group (P

To systematically evaluate the importance of protein synthesis in ischemic preconditioning (PC)-induced ischemic tolerance (IT), temporary middle cerebral artery occlusion (MCAO) by Longa (20 min) was used for PC (ischemic precondioning). Twenty-four hours of reperfusion was allowed after PC and before permanent MCAO to establish ischemic tolerance (IT) to compare with non-PC (sham-operated) rats (n = 5 for each group). Infarct size and neurological deficits were measured 24 h after PMCAO. Samples of brain were taken for the determination of HSP70 expression by Western blot analysis. The effects of the protein synthesis inhibitor cycloheximide administered just before PC or administered long after PC but just before PMCAO on IT were also determined (n = 5 for each group). Our results showed that hemispheric infarct was significantly reduced (P < 0.01) only if PC was performed after 24 h, and PC significantly (P < 0.05) reduced neurological deficits (similar to reductions in infarct size). Cycloheximide eliminated ischemic PC-induced IT effects on bothbrain injury and neurological deficits if administered before PC but not if administered long after PC but before PMCAO. PC produced no brain injury but did increase HSP70 protein 24 h after PC. Cycloheximide eliminated that effect. The results suggest that PC is a powerful inducer of ischemic brain tolerance as reflected by the preservation of brain tissue and motor function. PC induces IT that is dependent on de novo protein synthesis.

Objective To explore the short-term and long-term effects ofapplication of Percutaneous Transhepatic Cholangioscopic Lithotripsy on the treatment of hepatolithiasis. Methods Eighty-threecases of hepatolithiasis were treated with the PTCSL and the other 87cases were treated with the Laparoscopic exploration lithotomy.The general clinical parameters , curative effect in the near future and long-term curative effect were anlyzed. Results No significant differences were found between the two groups in the general clinical parameters (P>0.05). The operation time,intraoperative blood transfusion volume and intraoperatve blood soss in group A were significantly shorter than those in group B(P<0.05, respectively). The original calculi residual rate was 2.4%, the eventually calculi residual rate was 4.8%and the recurrent cholangitis was4.8%in the model of PTCSL (Group A). The original calculi residual rate was 18.4%, the eventually calculi residual rate was 23.0% and the recurrent cholangitis was 23.0%in the model of Laparoscopic exploration lithotomy (Group B), with significant difference between these two groups (P<0.05). The calculi recurrence rate of group A was 12.0%,the calculi recurrence rate of group B was 22.9%,withno significant difference between these two group (P>0.05). No patients died in each group. The results of complications showed thatthe incidence of residual calculi of group A was significantly lower than that of group B (P<0.01). Conclusions Compared with the model of Laparoscopic exploration lithotomy, the PTCSL was more safe, minimally invasive and effective. The short-term efficacy of the model of PTCSL was better than that of the model of Laparoscopic exploration lithotomy.
