Objective To establish a carotid artery stenosis model by endovascular technique suitable for neuro-interventional therapy.Methods Twelve dogs were anesthetized, the unilateral segments of the carotid arteries' tunica media and intima were damaged by a corneous guiding wire of home made. Twenty-four carotid artery stenosis models were thus created. DSA examination were performed on postprocedural weeks 2, 4, 8, 10 to estimate the changes of those stenotic carotid arteries. Results Twenty-four carotid artery stenosis models were successfully created in twelve dogs. Conclusions Canine carotid artery stenosis models can be created with the endovascular method having variation of pathologic characters and hemodynamic changes similar to human being. It is useful for further research involving the new technique and new material for interventional treatment.

Objective To investigate the clinical value of peri-interventional procedure serum bile acid(TBA)detection in patients with primary liver cancer. Methods The serum TBA was examined peri-operatively in 160 patients with primary liver cancer for testing the correlations between TBA, liver function, the degree of hepatocirrhosis, interventional therapy method and hepatic failure. Results The preoperative mean value of serum TBA incseased significantly in comparing with that of the control group (P

Objective To evaluate the usefulness of bilateral internal iliac arterial embolization in the treatment of hemorrhagic cystitis after bone marrow transplantation. Methods Among 28 patients with hemorrhagic cystitis, 7 patients experienced bilateral internal iliac artery embolization because of serious hemorrhage that couldn′t be controlled by conservative treatments,including CML (n = 3) , AML(n = 2) , ALL (n = 1),acute myelomonocytic leukemia(M4, n = 1). Embolization of the target vessels was performed by using gelfoam particleas for bilateral internal iliac arterial visceral branches. Results Gross hematuria disappeared in 4 cases after embolization by gelfoam particles. The time of bleeding controlled continued 2-10 d(mean 6 d). No rebleeding was observed in all of the cases during the 12 - 82 days follow up.Gross hematuria markedly reduced in another 3 cases after embolization. But failure occurred in other two patients. No definite complication related to the procedure was noted. Conclusion Bilateral internal iliac arterial embolization is an effective, less invasive, and safe method for serious hemorrhagic cystitis after bone marrow transplantation.

Intracranial aneurysm is a common disorder. With the ongoing improvement of medical imaging technique, the chance of finding an unruptured intracranial aneurysm in clinical practice has steadily increased. The rupture of aneurysms can result in subarachnoid hemorrhage and even in life-threatening conditions. Recent researches have indicated that the rupture risk of intracranial aneurysms bears a close relationship to the aneurysm's features, such as the size, site, shape, number, growth orientation, growth rate, etc. A further understanding of the features of unruptured intracranial aneurysm is very valuable for the effective prevention of its rupture.

0.05). In 30 eyes of diabetics with phacoemulsification, 11 eyes had new macula edema after surgery and 3 eyes had significant retinal thickening. In 6 eyes with macular edema before surgery, the macular edema were aggravated in 3 eyes after surgery. The macular structural changes were not found in two control groups. Conclusion The thickness of retina is inreased after phacoemulsification in deabetics,and morbidity and its severity of postopevative macular edema are increased as well.

Objective To observe the changes of macula in patients with high myopia after phacoemulsification. Methods In 20 patients with high myopia with ocular axial length≥27 mm, optical coherence tomography (OCT) was performed on the operative and contralateral eyes 1 week before and after monocular phacoemulsification, respectively, and the OCT images of macula of the operative eyes were observed and compared. Results One week before and after phacoemulsification, the mean macular fovea thickness of the patients with high myopia was (131.6?16.37) ?m and (189.75?45.69) ?m, respectively, with a significant difference (t=2.805, P=0.01). Simultaneously, the mean macular fovea thickness of the contralateral eyes was (133.5?15.12) ?m and (133.5?14.63) ?m, respectively, with a non-significant difference (t=1.367, P=0.853). In 20 operative eyes 1 week after phacoemulsification, 3 had vitreous strand around the macula with retinal thickening, 1 had retinoschisis in macular area, and 2 had obvious retinal thickening with slight retinal edema. Conclusion Retinal thickening occurs in the patients with high myopia after phacoemulsification. Traction of retina by vitreous strand or subclinical retinoschisis may occur in some patients.

Objective To explore therapeutic efficacy of blue-light-filtering intraocular lenses implantation on treating patients with diabetes cataract , and provide a more comfortable choice after phacoemulsification ( PHACO) and intraocularlens ( IOL) implan-tation.Methods A total of 100 cases (100 eyes) of patients with diabetes cataract was collected , and was randomly divided into group I ( n =50, implanted ordinary intraocular lenses ) and group II ( n =50, implanted blue-light-filtering intraocular lenses).Af-ter surgery, the best-corrected vision and postoperative complications were reported .The subjective visual performance was evaluated by questionnaire .Results At 1 week and 1 month after surgery , the best-corrected vision had no significant differences between two groups ( P >0.05 ) .Early complication after surgery was not significantly different between two groups ( P >0.05 ) .The subjective visual performance in the blue-light-filtering intraocular lenses group was significantly better than that in the ordinary intraocular lenses group ( P <0.05 ) .Conclusions When the blood sugar is controlled in certain level , it is possible for the blue-light-filtering in-traocular lenses to provide a better choice for patients with diabetes cataract .

Objective By analysing the relation between the proportion of NBCA and the arteriovenous circulation time will give the optimal proportion of NBCA for embolizing cerebral AVM with microcatheter clinically.Methods (1) The fresh aterial blood fractions from intracranial hemorrhage in vitro of 16 cases were mixed with the 20%、33%、50%、70% and 80% NBCA respectively and evaluated the coagulation times with the different densities of NBCA in the fresh aterial blood in vitro; (2) two cases were performed with superselective embolotherapy to five feeding arteri. Results (1) the correlation index between different densities of NBCA and the fresh areterial blood in vitro , T (c) =e 1.9994-1.487D , (2) about 90% nidus of AVM were occluded after embolization, and the fistulas of AVF were basically closed after embolization.Conclusions There is a mathematical model between the arteriovenous circulation time and the proportion of NBCA, thus providing the theoretical clinical application of the embolotherapy of CAVM with microcatheter.

Objective To construct canine bifurcation aneurysms suitable for evaluating the exploration of endovascular devices for interventional therapy by endovascular technique.Methods The right common carotid artery of six dogs was expanded with a pliable balloon by means of endovascular technique, then embolization with detached balloon was taken at their originations DAS examination were performed on 1,2,3 d after the procedurse. Results 6 aneurysm models were created in six dogs successfully with the mean width and height of the aneurysms decreasing in 3 days.Conclusions This canine aneurysm model presents the virture in the size and shape of human cerebral bifurcation saccular aneurysms on DSA image, suitable for developing the exploration of endovascular devices for aneurismal therapy. The procedure is quick, reliable and reproducible.

Objective To study the clinical appilication of detachable balloon embolization techenique in carotid cavernous fistula. Methods 27 cases consisted of 26 cases of typical TCCF and 1 case of CCF caused by left anterio cerebral artery(A1) aneurysm ruptured . 27 cases were treated by endovascular embolization with detachable balloon. Transcranial Doppler ultrasound(TCD) was used before and after embolization.All the patients were followed-up for more than 6 months. Results 22 cases of TCCF were cured by detachable embolization and their internal carotid artery(ICA) remained patent. The first segement of left anteriol cerebral artery was embolized by two detachable balloons in the patient with CCF caused by ruptured aneurysm. Internal carotid artery was embolized by two balloons in 4 cases. There was no severe complication in this group. Conclusions Detachable balloon embolization is a safe and effective method for internal carotid cavernous fistula.
