This paper summarized perioperative nursing care of three patients undergoing surgical tumor resection and anterolateral femoral skin flap repair,with tumors involving intra-and extra-cranial regions from scalp squamous cell carcinoma breaking through the skull directly into the brain. Three surgical procedures were successfully per-formed by cooperation between two surgical departments and the average duration was 7 hours. The effective preop-erative infection control,perfect surgical plan,intraoperative team collaboration,effective aseptic technique and tumor-free technique were key points for the success of the operations. Close postoperative observation and positive psy-chological nursing also guaranteed operation success.

Objective To evaluate the common traditional Chinese medicine syndrome types, therapies and formulas of the wind of four fossae. This will provide reference for the formulation of the guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of traditional Chinese medicine in the wind of four fossae. Methods Delphi method using questionnaires were developed based on literature about TCM syndromes and treatment of the wind of four fossae. The questionnaire were sent to 25 experts nationwide for 2 rounds. The database of the collected data was established. The mean, full score ratio, rank sum and coefficient of variation were described and by SAS 6.12 statistical software. Results A total of 21 valid questionnaires were recovered in the first round and 23 valid questionnaires in the second round. The active coefficient of the experts was 84% and 92%, respectively. The results showed that syndromes of newborn heat, damp heat retention, spleen deficiency and blood dryness, wind dampness accumulating skin, blood deficiency and wind dryness demonstrated high concensus. The consistency scores' mean of 5 syndromes were 1.67, 1.90, 1.83, 1.71 and 1.90. The sum of degrees of 5 syndromes were 37, 40, 42, 36 and 40. The ratio of full scores of 5 syndromes were 0.81, 0.90, 0.87, 0.71 and 0.90. The coefficient of variations of 5 syndromes were 0.32, 0.16, 0.27, 0.27 and 0.16. The therapy of syndrome of newborn heat was clearing away the heart-fire and inducing diuresis by the sanxin daochi decoction; The therapy of syndrome of damp heat retention was clearing heat and removing dampness by longdan xiegan decoction; The therapy of syndrome of wind dampness accumulating skin was dispelling wind and eliminating dampness by xiaofeng san; The therapy of syndrome of spleen deficiency and blood dryness was enriching blood and moistening dryness by danggui decoction; The therapy of syndrome of blood deficiency and wind dryness was replenishing qi to invigorate the spleen and enriching blood to calm endogenous wind by shenling baizhu power and danggui decoction. Conclusion Questionnaire survey could quantify the opinions of experts, and provide reference for the establishment of guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of traditional Chinese medicine in the wind of four fossae.

Objective To explore the safety of the left anterior pararenal space approach in laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy with splenic preservation.Methods 30 patients operated between August 2008 and September 2013 were retrospectively reviewed.Results Of the 30 patients,28 underwent laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy with preservation of splenic artery and vein,2 underwent laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy with division of the splenic artery and vein and preservation of the short gastric vessels.All the 30 patients had their operations carried out successfully with an average operative time of (55 ± 38) min,blood loss (100 ± 48) ml and duration of hospitalization 7.8 d.Pancreatic fistula occurred in 2 patients and it healed spontaneously on drainage.Partial splenic infarction occurred in 1 patient.The pathological lesions were serous cystadenoma in 6 patients,mucinous cystadenoma in 6 patients,insulinoma in 5 patients,solid pseudopapillary tumor in 6 patients,chronic pancreatitis presenting as a mass in 3 patients,and pancreatic cyst in 4 patients.Conclusions The left anterior pararenal space approach was safe and efficacious in distal pancreatectomy with splenic preservation.If the pancreatic lesion was big and compressed the splenic artery and vein,laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy with division of the splenic artery and vein and preservation of the short gastric vessels was the procedure of choice.
