Objective To study the possibility and value of double-catheter-balloon technique for embolization of high-flow carotid cavernous fistula (CCF).Methods Three high-flow CCFs, which can't be completely occluded by 1 detachable balloon, were treated with the technique. By the way of bilateral femoral arteries approach, 2 detachable balloons were advanced to the internal carotid artery (ICA). After passing through the fistula, both balloons were inflated on the venous side in order to occlude the fistula. Results All CCFs were occluded completely and the ICAs remained patent. This procedure was easy and safe without increasing the risk of interventional therapy.Conclusions The application of double-catheter-balloon technique for high-flow CCF should be an effective method of choice during failure of 1 balloon procedure and simultaneously maintainning the patency of ICAs completely.

Objective To observe the expression of FcRIIa and FcRIIb on the surface of several immune cells.Methods The expression of FcRIIa and FcRIIb on the surface of several immune cells were detected by RT-PCR and Western blot before and after IVIG incubation. The difference of Fc?RIIb expression on U937 and human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBM) after IVIG induction. was also analyze by FACS.Results Under normal conditions Fc?RIIa was mainly detected in macrophages/monocytes and B lymphocyte cells, while Fc?RIIb could not be detected. After IVIG administration, the expression of FcRIIb on the surface of U937 cells was quickly up-regulated (RT-PCR). FACS analysis revealed that the Fc?RIIb expression on U937 and human peripheral blood mononuclear cells (PBM) after IVIG induction was also increased. Conclusion The effect of immunoregulation of IVIG was partly achieved by up-regulation of the expression of FcRIIb on the surface of some immune cells.

BACKGROUND: Absorbable materials for internal fixation have some advantages such as simple surgery, rapid recovery and no need to second surgery, and have been accepted in the circle of orthopaedics, and had been applied in the clinic. However, the system experiment evidences are not reliable.OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether the absorbable material (the absorbable tension band, absorbable stick or screw) is an acceptable alternative to stainless steel wire with Kirschner wire by comparing their biomechanical properties in the fixation of patella transverse fractures.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: The randomized controlled study of biomechanical analysis was performed at the Laboratory of Institute of Biomechanics, Shanghai University from March 2007 to January 2008.MATERIALS: Eight fresh patellae specimens were collected, with the complete patella, articular capsule and patellar ligament (3.0-4.0 cm) and quadriceps femoris (4.0-5.0 cm), and then divided into two groups at random, AO steel wire group (n = 2) and absorbable tension band group (n = 6).METHODS: Eight fresh patellae specimens were divided into two groups at random, AO steel wire group (n = 2) and absorbable tension band group (n = 6) to create models of transverse fractures, which were separately fixed by absorbable tension band,steel wire tension band + Kirschner wire to measure their biomechanics function. If fracture gap reached 1.0 mm, the fixation failed.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: The changes in patellar ligament tensile force, quadriceps femoris tensile force, patellar displacement, quadriceps femoris displacement, patellar ligament displacement and patella tensile strain were measured under external load.RESULTS: Under external load, no significant difference was determined in total displacement between the absorbable tension band group and AO steel wire group (9%-10% difference). No significant difference was detected in patellar strain between absorbable tension band group and AO steel wire group (9%-10% difference). The patellofemoral joint force was similar between the absorbable tension band group and AO steel wire group. When internal fixation displaced 1 mm, the load was 587 N in the absorbable tension band group, and 650 N in the AO steel wire group (P > 0.05).CONCLUSION: The absorbable material is an acceptable alternative to stainless steel wire with Kirschner wire in the fixation of patella transverse fractures, with the advantages of good biological function and good stability at the broken ends of fractured bone.

Objective To summarize the clinical characteristics,diagnosis and treatment of malignant tumor after renal transplantation.Methods The clinical data of 2106 renal transplants in 1945 patients undertaken in our hospital from September 1978 to December 2009 was retrospectively studied.Results Of these 1945 patients, 39 cases were diagnosed as having malignant tumor (incidence: 2.0 ％).The interval between transplantation and clinical diagnosis ranged from 8 to 124 months with a median of 57.0 months.Among the 39 cases of malignancy, there were 22 urinary system carcinomas, 8 digestive system carcinomas,2 lung cancers,2 breast cancers,2 lymphomas,1 dura small cell carcinoma,1 pleura poorly differentiated carcinoma and 1 metastatic carcinoma of liver with unknown primary tumor. Surgery was conducted in 28 patients,of which 16 were survived but the other 12 patients died of metastasis ranged from 3 months to 96 months (median,33 months) after operation.11 cases without operation died within from 3 d to 36 months (median,5 months) after diagnosis.Conclusions The incidence of malignant tumors in renal transplant recipients increased markedly.The most common type of the malignant tumors is urinary system carcinoma.The key measure of success in treating malignancy after renal transplantation is early diagnosis and surgical resection.

Objective: To investigate the effect of intravenous immunoglobulin in highly sensitized patients awaiting organ transplantation. Methods: IVIG was used to reduce donor specific anti HLA alloantibodies in vitro and in vivo . Fifteen patients received IVIG′s suppressive experiment in vitro by random panel lymphocytotoxicity test. The serum of patients were divided into 2 groups: one was diluted with equal volume of IVIG and the other was diluted with PBS solution, and then reacted with lymphocytes from healthy donors randomly. Of them 5 patients received the treatment by IVIG. Four patients were administrated with 0.5 g/kg. Period of treatment was 4 weeks. One patient received 8 weeks infusion in same dose, 2 patients resulted in PRA drop to 10% had received kidney and pancreas kidney transplantation. Results: The percentage of RPLT in experimental group was lower than that in control group. After large dose of infusion of IVIG, the patients showed a reduction in absolute PRA of 2% 51% (mean decrease: 23%). Two patients had undergone subsequent transplantation and no serious rejection occurred. Conclusion: Treatment with IVIG is a valuable tool for the transplantation of immunized patients. The effect of IVIG is dose dependent and can be achieved in 3 weeks.
