Objective To explore the feasibility and clinical result in reconstructing of femoral artery defects with external jugular vein graft. Methods Sixteen cases of femoral artery defects caused by pseudoaneurgsm resected were reconstructed with external jugular vein graft from June 2002 to August 2005. Results The limbs of all the patients were salvaged successfully.Thirteen patients were followed up from 1 to 24 months. Their dorsal arteries of foot pulsated well, and there was no pseudoaneurgsm broken or defect recurred. Femoral nerve injury was found in one case. Femoral artery continuity was detected under the color ultrasound Doppler in 6 cases. Conclusion Reconstructing of femoral artery defects with external jugular vein graft is feasible, the effect of which is sure. The shortcoming is that the scar on the neck affects appearance after resect of external jugular vein.

Objective To study the pathogens associated with infectious keratitis for early diagnosis and treatment.Methods This study was conducted with the patients with confirmed diagnosis of infectious keratitis in our hospital during the period from January 2011 through December 2015.The specimens from corneal ulcer were subject to bacterial and fungal culture.The pathogens and associated risk factors of infectious keratitis were analyzed retrospectively.Results Of the 1 046 corneal specimens,369 (35.3％) were positive for microorganisms.The most frequently isolated microorganism was fungal species (53.1％),followed by grampositive cocci (31.2％),gram-negative bacilli (11.1％),and gram-positive bacilli (4.6％).Of the fungal strains,most were Fusarium (69.4％),followed by Aspergillus species (21.9％).Coagulase negative Staphylococcus accounted for more than half (50.4％) of the gram positive cocci.Conclusions Infectious keratitis is primarily associated with fungal infection,especially filamentous fungus such as Fusarium.
