The shape and position of the central fibrous body (CFB) and the relation between the CFB and the conduction system were observed in 30 human hearts (children: 25 cases, adult: 5 cases) in serial sections.The shape of the CFB was wedge-shaped. The CFB of each child was horizontal in position, but the CFB of each adult was nearly sagittal in position.A-V node was a long sagittal flat structure. Its left surface contacted with the CFB and the left surface of A-V node often extended processes into the CFB in the children. The processes were called archipelagos. About 80 percent of the children with superficial archipelagos, and 16 percent with deep archipelagos. The superficial archipelagos in the adults was only found in one case, but the deep archipelagos were not seen.His bundle more permanently penetrated into the right inferior part of the CFB.

Using the angiography and the corrosion methods we studied the arterial distribution of the papillary muscles of the left ventricle in llo dog hearts, according to the peculiarities of vasculature, disscused the influence of obstruction of coronary artery upon the papillary muscle.The anterior and posterior papillary muscles in dog all are tethered type. The average length and width of anterior papillary muscle are 1.96 cm. and 1.10cm, respectively, while those in the posterior papillary muscle are 2.04 cm. and 1.20 cm. respectively.The origins of arterial blood supply of anterior papillary muscle may be classiffied into 4 types, type Ⅰ, in which the arterial branehes are from the anterior descending artery, is in leading position(71%); type Ⅱ, in which branches are both from the anterior descending and left circumflex arteries, is in the next place(18%). Origins of arterial branches of posterior papillary muscle are classed under 2 types: type Ⅰ, in which all arterial branches are from the left circumflex artery, is the most, 91%, among them 65% from the posterior branch of the left ventricle.The peculiarities of arterial distribution in papillary muscles are as follows: 1. All artery branch entering the papillary muscle are of Class B. 2. All are segmental distribution in papillary muscles. Each muscle recieyes 2-9 branches, mostly 5 or 6 branches. 3. Each half of one papillary muscle recieves several branches symmetrically. 4. The arrangement of hrauches may be classiffied into several types; mixed type is the most, then comes the transverse type. 5. The branches anastomose each other to form the subendocardial plexus, which is most evident in the middle and upper third of the papillary muscle.

This thesis is the study of the morphology and arterial supply of the papillary musclcs of the left ventricle of 104 human hearts. The maim me-thod used is angiography and corrosion. The commonest number of the anteri-or and posterior papillary muscles is one. In 72 hearts there are musculartrabeculae by which the papillary muscle is attached to the wall of the leftventricle. The projection of the auterior papillary muscle of the left ven-tricle on the heart surface lies most frequently on the middle third regionof a supposed "#"-form region. There are three types of attachment of thepapillary muscle: the free, the attached and the intermidiate, among whichthe largest number is the first type. The arteries supplying the anteriorpapillary muscle are the branches of the anterior descending artery, theleft circumflex artery or these two. Each of the three types amounts to30% or so; the posterior papillary muscle is mostly supplied by the leftventricular posterior branches of the right circumflex artery 9.6 % ). The blood vessels in the papillary muscle belong to class B, each of the papillarymuscles containing 1--3 major vessels measured 0. 1--1 mm in diameter.The three vascular distribution types in the papillary muscle are of axis,segment and mixtnre, and the axial type is most commonly seen of all. Thevascular distribution type j? of certain relation to the attachment type ofthe papillary muscle. The axial distribution is frequently found in the freetype of the papillary muscle. The arteries distributes on either side of thepapillary muscle.

The morphology and position of the AV node and AV bundle were observed in 13 human hearts with serial sections. 1.the AV node is a long sagittal flatt ened structure, its transverse section is triangular in shape with a right convex surface, sometimes the cross section is fusiform or half oval in shape. Its size is 3.5x3.3x1.1 mm in adult. In 5 cases the endocardium lying on the right surface of the AV node is elevated.2.The AV node is situated in the upper border of the atrioventricular septum (between the levels of the attachment lines of the mitral and tricuspid valves). The adult AV node is 1.8-5.8 mm anterior to the coronary sinus orifice, 0.3-0.7 mm from the endocardium of the right atrium, 3.3-7.5 mm above the upper border of the septal leaflet of the tricuspid valve. The left surface of the AV node contacts with the central fibrous body.3.The AV node can be divided in 2 parts: superficial and deep, the fibers of the super ficial part are longitudinal in sections and end in the lower border of the AV node. In one case, the deep part is subdivided in an upper part and a lower part. In the specimens in which the right atrial endocardium lying on the right surface of the AV node is elevated, the overlaying fibers end in the endocardium. At the upper border, right surface, and posterior margin of the AV node, there are atrial fibers ending to the AV node. 4. The adult AV bundle is 5.7-7.9 mm long, 1.1-1.5 mm in diameter. Its anterior part is on top of the muscular interventricular septum in 7 specimens, on its left surface in 3 specimens, and in the substance of the muscular interventricular septum in 2 specimens. In one case its course is very special, at first on the top of muscular interventricular septum, then at its left surface, finally in the substance of the right part of the muscular interventricular septum.

Objective To evaluate the role of preoperative serological indexes in predicting long-term survival and tumor recurrence of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) patients after liver transplantation, aiming to explore its significance in expanding the Milan criteria. Methods Clinical data of 669 recipients undergoing liver transplantation for HCC were retrospectively analyzed. The optimal cut-off value was calculated by the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. The risk factors affecting the overall survival and recurrence-free survival rates of HCC patients after liver transplantation were identified by univariate and multivariate regression analyses. The correlation between preoperative serum liver enzymes and pathological characteristics in HCC patients was analyzed. The predictive values of alpha-fetoprotein (AFP) combined with γ -glutamyl transferase (GGT) and different liver transplant criteria for the survival and recurrence of HCC patients after liver transplantation were compared. Results Exceeded Milan criteria, total tumor diameter (TTD) > 8 cm, AFP > 200 ng/mL and GGT > 84 U/L were the independent risk factors for the overall survival and recurrence-free survival rates of HCC patients after liver transplantation (all
