ObjectiveTo study the treament of arterial occlusion of lower extrimities. MethodsSeventy-three cases(78 limbs) of chronic ischemia o f lower extremities were diagnosed as artroial occlusion by color u ltrasounography, DSA or MRA. Arterial bypass using grafting,endarterectomy and percuteneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) were used for the artery segmental occlusion in 44 limbs. Venous arterialization and reconstruc tion of profunda femoris were performed for extensive occlusion in 29 limbs. ResultsAll the cases showed satisfactory r esults 6 months to 8 years after operation except 8 limbs (segmenta l occlusion in 3 limbs and extensive occlusion in 5 limbs) were amputated. ConclusionsThe key points of improvement of the therapeu tic effects of the arteral occlusion of lowe extremity lie on the cho ice of the therapeutic methods accoding to the results of DSA or MRA.

Objective To evaluate a thrombolytic system of portal vein port-catheter kit (PC) in the treatment of portal vein thrombosis (PVT). Methods In this study, 42 PVT patients with liver cirrhosis and portal hypertension after splenectomy from 2005 to 2007 were divided into two groups. In group A (20 eases) thrombolysis was administered through the PC device. Urokinase at the dosage of 1000 U?kg-1?h-1 was given for a consecutive 3 -6 days through the PC, and then the therapy was converted to 100 AxaIU/kg of low molecular heparin twice a day for 7 days subcutaneously. In group B, the thrombolysis was performed on 22 patients through peripheral veins. The therapy was same as in group A except for that the urokinase dosage was doubled. The complete thrombolysis rate, the effective thrombolysis rate, the time of thrombolysis, the long-term recurrence rate and the incidence of complication were compared between the two groups. Results The complete thrombolysis rate and the effective thrombolysis rate in group A were 75%, 90% respectively, compared with that of 41%, 59% respectively in group B. The significant differences in the complete thrombolysis rate, the effective thrombolysis rate, the time of thrombolysis and the incidence of complication were found between the two groups, while the thrombolysis recurrence rate had no significant difference between the two groups. Conclusion PC regime is an effective and safe method for the treatment of portal vein thrombosis.

AIM: To investigate the effect of Chinese herbs, Ganxianfang(GXF), on rat hepatic stellate cells (HSC) proliferation and collagen synthesis. METHODS: Two types of herb serum, portal venous serum and circumferential venous serum, were prepared from rats infused intragastrically with 16,8,4 times adult dose of GXF decoction. HSC isolated from rat liver were processed with the above sera in vitro . Then we mensurated the radioactivity of HSC admixed with [ 3H]proline and [ 3H]thymine to judge the effect on proliferation and collagen synthesis of HSC. RESULTS: Both two types of serum collected 0 5, 1, 2 h after intragastrical infusion inhibited HSC proliferation ( P 0 05). CONCLUSION: Inhibition of HSC proliferation and decrease of collagen synthesis may contribute to the GXF antifibrotic action.
