Objective To evaluate the safety and feasibility of Wingspan stent for patients with symptomatic M1 stenosis of middle cerebral artery (MCA). Methods Thirty-two cases with recurrent symptomatic MCA stenosis resistant to medical therapy treated by self-expanding stent were reviewed retrospectively [average (49±19) years old, 13 women]. All patients underwent angioplasty and stenting with the Gateway balloon-Wingspan stent system. After 6 months, all patients were followed up by telephone or clinic, and advised followed up with DSA or TCD. Results Thirty-two patients were successfully stented during the first treatment session. The mean degree of stenosis reduced from (76.5±15.4)% to (19.3±9.2)%. The number of complicating subarachnoid hemorrhage was one, and occlusion occurred on one patients related to balloon angioplasty. During a follow-up of 6 months, there was no recurrence of transient ischemic attack or stroke in 32 available patients. Cerebral hemodynamics using transcranial Doppler monitoring were normal in 19 follow-up patients. Six-month angiographic follow-up was obtained in 5 patients, demonstrating good patency in 5 stenting vessels. The other patients refused to perform TCD or DSA. Conclusions Wingspan stent for symptomatic stenosis of middle cerebral artery appears to be a safe and feasible under strict control of periperformeral project. However further study is needed to evaluate the long-term effect.

Objective To analyze the plasty of the tip framework and the nasal tip in insufficient-lining cases with auricular and septal cartilage.Methods The tip framework was formed by using septal extension graft (SEG) and columellar strut (CS) to construct the main framework of nasal tip,and then according to the size of the graft the next processes were chosen for supporting structure.When the graft size met the tip position,the caudal margin of the framework could be beyond the maximum stretch position of the lower lateral cartilage and reached or was close to the expected tip position.When the graft size was insufficient,auricular cartilage was used to hold the caudal margin of the framework to extend or to heighten the framework further.Refined plasty of nasal tip was as follows:when the end of framework was higher than or equal to the dome above 3 mm,auricular cartilage strip was used to reconstruct the dome;when less than 3 mm,multilayer onlay grafts were used to heighten the dome.Results From May 2013 to May 2015,42 cases were followed up from 6 months to 18 months.18 cases belonged to the type 1,including 13 cases using ear cartilage to reconstruct dome,5 cases using onlay graft;24 cases belonged to the type 2,including 14 cases using onlay graft and 10 cases using ear cartilage to reconstruct the dome.They all got good results.Conclusions To the insufficient lining cases,the appropriate method can be chosen to form stable tip framework according to the preoperative design and the graft size.Then onlay grafts or dome reconstruction technique is used to form the tip.Most of the insufficient-lining cases can get satisfactory results.

Objective To discuss the application of Chaperon guiding catheter system in endovascular treatment of intracranial aneurysms. Methods A total of 20 patients with intracranial aneurysms were enrolled in this study. The patients hadⅡorⅢtype of aortic arch (n=11) or sclerotic plague at the orifice of internal carotid or vertebral artery (n = 9). Endovascular embolization of the intracranial aneurysm was carried out in all patients. By using Cordis guiding catheter system the catheter was placed into the target artery. Chaperon guiding catheter system was used during the procedure in order to determine whether the Chaperon guiding catheter could be smoothly placed into the target artery or not. Results When the Chaperon guiding catheter system was employed in the endovascular procedure, the difficulties of catheterization caused by the distortion of the aorta or by the plagues on the walls of arteries could be basically overcome. The Guiding catheter could be smoothly placed into the target arteries. Conclusion The Chaperon guiding catheter system can be successfully used in the endovascular treatment for the intracranial aneurysms, especially when the patient has tortuous aorta or there is sclerotic plague on the artery wall.

Background:Oryz-Aspergillus Enzyme and Pancreatin Tablet is a double-deck digestive enzyme pellet containing Oryz-Aspergillus enzyme and pancreatin that has been widely used for treatment of functional dyspepsia (FD)in clinical practice. However,there is no randomized controlled trial focusing on the efficacy of this agent versus other drugs used for treatment of FD such as prokinetics and proton pump inhibitors (PPI). Aims:To compare the efficacy and safety among Oryz-Aspergillus Enzyme and Pancreatin Tablet,Domperidone Tablet and Esomeprazole Magnesium Enteric-coated Tablet, three drugs with different mechanisms of action on FD,in Chinese population. Methods:A total of 82 Helicobacter pylori-negative outpatients fulfilling the diagnostic criteria of FD in Rome Ⅲ were recruited from Nov. 2015 to Jun. 2016 at the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhejiang Chinese Medical University. These patients were randomly allocated into 3 groups,and received Oryz-Aspergillus Enzyme and Pancreatin Tablet (group A),Domperidone Tablet (group B)and Esomeprazole Magnesium Enteric-coated Tablet (group C)orally for 4 weeks,respectively. The improvement of dyspeptic symptoms and adverse events were observed and recorded. Results:After 4 weeks treatment,the overall efficacies for global symptoms in group A,group B and group C were 93. 1%,88. 9% and 69. 2%,respectively,statistically significant difference was existed among the three groups (P < 0. 05). Domperidone Tablet was effective for postprandial fullness and early satiety;Esomeprazole Magnesium Enteric-coated Tablet was sensitive for epigastric pain,epigastric burning,and belching and regurgitation;the efficacies of Oryz-Aspergillus Enzyme and Pancreatin Tablet for all five dyspeptic symptoms were in between. No adverse events were observed during treatment course. Conclusions:Digestive enzymes,prokinetics and PPI have different sensitive symptoms and optimal indications for treatment of FD. The overall efficacy of Oryz-Aspergillus Enzyme and Pancreatin Tablet is superior to that of prokinetics and PPI.
