Objective To investigate the safety and clinical effect of laparoscopic radical parametrectomy in the treatment of unexpected cervical cancer . Methods A retrospective analysis was made on clinical characteristics of 15 patients who were diagnosed as unexpected cervical cancer from January 2008 to December 2014.The age of the patients was between 29 and 67 years old, with an average of 43.9 years old.The indications for hysterectomy were cervical intraepithelial neoplasia (CIN) grade 2-3 in 7 cases, uterine myoma in 3 cases, dysfunctional uterine bleeding in 2 cases, uterine prolapse in 2 cases and adenomyosis in 1 case. Pathological results after the hysterectomy included 13 cases of cervical squamous carcinoma and 2 cases of adenocarcinoma .The lesions were all confined to the cervix , with 4 cases of stage ⅠA2 disease and 11 cases of stage ⅠB1 .The lymph-vascular space invasion was found in 4 cases.The operation interval between the two operations was 3-7 d (mean, 4.6 d).They were all given laparoscopic radical parametrectomy . Results The operation time was 212-285 min (mean, 249.6 min), and the blood loss was 250-500 ml ( mean, 376 ml) .Postoperative pathological findings showed no residual disease .Only one patient had left pelvic lymph node mestastasis .Two patients had intraoperative complications , including 1 bladder injury and 1 ureteral injury .There were 3 cases of postoperative complications , including 2 cases of uroschesis and 1 case of lymphocyst .The follow-up time was 6-84 months ( median, 48 months).No recurrence was seen.The 1-, 3-, 5-year survival rates were 100%, 93.3%, 86.7%, respectively. Conclusions Laparoscopic radical parametrectomy in the treatment of unexpected cervical cancer is difficult to perform and has more complications . This surgical method is applicable to those who refused postoperation radiotherapy or required retaining ovarian function .

Objective To probe the etiology and management of restenosis after artificially grafting bypass for chronic ischemia of the lower extremities. Methods In this study 52 cases suffering from postoperative restenosis and obliteration were compared with 32 cases whose artificial grafts remain patent during the same postoperative follow-up period of 3~62 months.Possible risk factors that lead to restenosis were evaluated.Resuits FIB(4.48±1.68)g/L,CRP(9.5±2.6)mg/L and LDL(4.5±1.7)mmol/L were significantly higher in the restenosis group than FIB(3.50±0.72)g/L,CRP(4.0±3.2)mg/L and LDL(2.8±0.9)mmol/L in the patent group(P<0.01).There were no significant difference between HDL(1.02±0.32)mmol/L in the restenosis group and HDL(1.12±0.28)mmol/L in the patent group (P>0.05).Reoperation in these 52 cases found severe intima hyperplasia and secondary thrombosis within anastomosis in 42 cases and the remaining 10 cases were found with artificial vessel primary thrombosis.After reoperation,artificial graft remain patent in 28 cases,limb amputation was performed in 10 cases,the grafted bypass were removed due to infection in 3 cases. Five patients died postoperatively.Conclusion The main reason for restenosis after artificially grafting bypass is intima hyperplasia in vascular anastomosis.Higher levels of FIB,CRP and LDL maybe the major high risk factors that lead to intima hyperplasia and artificial graft obliteration.

BACKGROUND: Autophagy of osteocytes has been found to be implicated in the pathogenesis of steroid-induced necrosis of the femoral head and closely related to apoptosis.OBJECTIVE: To summarize the research progress of autophagy in the pathogenesis of steroid-induced necrosis of the femoral head by studying the interaction between cell autophagy and cell apoptosis as well as osteocytes.METHODS: A computer-based online retrieval of PubMed, Embase and CNKI databases was performed for relevant literatures published from October 1996 to October 2016 with the keywords of steroid, necrosis of the femoral head, cell apoptosis, cell autophagy, osteocyte in Chinese and English, respectively. The articles concerning steroid-induced necrosis of femoral head and cell autophagy were collected, and the redundant and old researches or Meta analysis were removed.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Mammalian target of rapamycin, Beclin-1, microtubule-associated protein 1 light chain 3, bone morphogenetic proteins, fork box protein and transcription gene family and transcription factor 4 are closely related to autophagy. The interaction between autophagy and osteocytes is correlated with steroid dose: the autophagy shows protective factor under the low dose corticosteroids; however, with the increase of the dosage, a large number of apoptotic cells, and the phenomenon of bone loss can been observed. Furthermore, the relationship of cell autophagy with apoptosis and bone mass maintenance is still controversial, which needs to be explored in depth via a series of rational experiments.

Objective To assess the changes of right atrial size and mechanical function after radiofrequency catheter ablation in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation using real-time threedimensional echocardiography(RT-3DE), and to study the correlation between the changes of left atrial(LA)and right atrial(RA) volume and function. Methods Thirty-five patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation were undergone radiofrequency catheter ablation (RFCA) successfully. Transthoracic echocardiography (TTE),tissue Doppler imaging(TDI) and RT-3DE were performed before, 1 month and 3 months after procedure respectively. Late systolic volume and area of RA and LA,ejection fraction(EF) of RA and LA,late diastolic peak velocity of mitral valve inflow, tricuspid valve inflow and late diastolic peak velocity of mitral annulus and tricuspid annulus were recorded. Results The 3DE images of all patients were satisfied.LA max area and 3DE LA max volume were significantly reduced at 1 months and 3 months after procedure compared with basic stage [ ( 18.8 ± 6.3) cm2 vs (21.5 ± 6.2) cm2 , (38.8 ± 17.0) ml vs (46.1 ± 20.0) ml,P < 0.05]. 3DE LA EF also declined markedly at 1 month after RFCA, and restored at 3 months later compared with baseline [(41.1 ± 13.7) % vs (51.7 ± 15.9) %, (41.1 ± 13.7) % vs (45.6 ± 18.3) %, P <0.05]. The size and mechanical function of the right atrial after procedure were no obvious changes. There were no evidently correlation between the changes of LA and RA volume and function. Conclusions RT3DE can provide a precise method to quantify the value of atrial volume and function. The LA size and volume are significantly reduced after RFCA in patients with paroxysmal atrial fibrillation, however, the RA size and function are no obvious changes.

Objective To summarize our experience on the diagnosis and management of 8 patients with popliteal artery entrapment syndrome (PAES). Methods Clinical data of 8 PAES cases admitted from Jul 2002 to Jul 2010 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 7 males and 1 female with the mean age of (29 ± 14)years (ranging 16 -56 years). In 6 cases posterior "S" shaped incisions in the popliteal fossa were applied and anomalous anatomic structures were verified. Segmental stenosis and post-stenotic popliteal arterial aneurysm was identified in 2 cases, and partial resection of the aneurismal wall and arterioplasty including one with saphenous vein patch were applied; For 4 cases with short segmental occlusion of the popliteal artery, surgical treatment included thromboendarterectomy in 2 cases (with saphenous vein patch plasty in one case), saphenous vein interposition in 1 case, and saphenous vein bypass grafting in 1 case.Medial longitudinal incisions and saphenous vein bypass grafting were applied in 2 cases with long segmental occlusion in popliteal artery without exploration for anatomic anomalies. Results All patients recovered uneventfully without any notable complication. During the follow-up period ranging from 4 to 99 months [average (50± 37) months], no ischemic symptom reoccurred in 7 cases with patent arteries or grafts, and recurrent claudication occurred in 1 case with distal anastomostic stenosis. The stenosis was subsequently treated with balloon angioplasty and vein graft thrombsis occurred one month later. Medicine and exercise were recommended for the patient and now mild claudication still remains without affecting his normal life.Conclusions PAES is a disease of relatively low incidence resulting in lower extremity ischemia, which can be successfully cured with proper management.

Objectives To evaluate the method and short-term result of endovascular repairing for distal tears of Debakey type Ⅲ dissecting aneurysm. Methods In this study the continously existing distal intima tears were repaired using different method in 15 Debakey type Ⅲ dissections after previous successful repair of the proximal entry.All patients have symptoms caused by unclosed distal tears or increased false lumen in abdominal aorta.7 visceral artery tears ( 1 celiac and 6 renal),4 abdominal aorta and 7 iliac artery tears were repaired (3 cases have both viscera and iliac tears).All abdominal aorta entries were repaired by bifurcation stent grafts.Blocking umbrella was used in 1 renal tear,and all other viscera and iliac tears were repaired by small covered stents. Results All endovascular procedures were successfully completed.No any endo-leak occurred in abdominal and iliac entry repairs.One near renal tear was totally blocked by an umbrella which also blocked blood flow from false lumen to right renal artery.One major endo-leak and 2 minor endo-leak occurred in visceral artery tearing repair,all other visceral tears were completely repaired.All patients were followed up from 2 to 10 months (average 5.0 ± 2.0 months).Follow-up CTA revealed false lumen thrombosis in non-endo-leak cases.Three endo-leak cases still have blood flow in false lumen with partly thrombosis. Conclusions In selected patients,salvage endovascular repair for left over distal tears in Debakey Ⅲ dissecting aneurysm after initial repair is feasible and safe.

Objective To explore the relationship between the membranous tissue(MT)and organized thrombus(OT)in membranous obstruction of the inferior vena cava(MOVC),we investigated the related cytokines expression in the membranous tissues in MOVC as well as venous organized thrombi. Methods Using immunohistochemical method the expression of TGFβR,PDGFR,ET-1,FⅧ-rAg, ferritin and α1-antitrypsin were observed in the membranous tissues in 11 cases with MOVC and organized thrombi in 8 cases with deep venous thrombosis(DVT). Results Expression rates of TGFβR,PDGFR,ET-1,FⅧ-rAg, and ferritin in membranous tissues in 11 cases with MOVC and organized thrombi in 8 cases with DVT were as follows: TGFβR:MT 72.3%,OT 50%(P>0.05);PDGFR:MT 45.5%,OT 100%(P<0.05=;ET-1:MT 100%,OT 0(P<0.05=;FⅧ-rAg: MT 90.9%,OT 12.5%(P<0.05=;ferritin: MT 72.3%,OT 100%(P>0.05).α1-antitrypasin was not detected in either membranous tissues of MOVC or organized thrombi of DVT. Conclusions ThrovIgh the investigation of the related cytokines expression, it is possible that membranous tissue formation in MOVC is related to the organized thrombus.
