International Journal of Laboratory Medicine 2008;29(10):875-877
Objective To study the drug resistance and production status of highly producing AmpC enzymes, extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) and drug resistance in Acinetobacter bau-mannii. Methods Drug sensitivity test was performed with Kirby-Bauer method. ESBLs were detected with phenotype confirmatory test (double-disk synergy test), and highly producing AmpC enzymes were measured with phenotype screening method. Results 93 strains of Acinetobacter baumannii were mainly obtained from respiratory department and neurosurgery, and isolated from sputum/pharyngeal stab, raw surface/wound secretion and urine samples. 15 strains (16.1%) of highly producing AmpCenzyme-producing Acinetobacter baumannii were detected, so were 10 strains (10. 8%) of ESBLs-pro-ducing isolates. All enzymes-producing strains displayed multi-resistant, and their resistant rates to the third cephalosporin, penicillins and aztreonam were much higher than enzymes non-producing ones. None was detected resistant to imipenem. Conclusion Occurrence of highly producing AmpC en-zymes and extended-spectrum β-lactamases (ESBLs) is one of causes for Acinetobacter baumannii multi-resistance. It suggests that detection of ESBLs-producing isolates should be strengthened so as to prevent their outbreak and spread.

Objective To explore a novel operative management for irreducible atlantoaxial dislocation. Methods Fifty-four patients, which as 32 males and 22 females aged from 7 to 63 years old with a mean of 32 years, were diagnosed with irreducible atlantoaxial dislocation, including 18 patients with os odontoideum, 22 occipitalization, 5 malunion of odontoid fracture and 9 relaxation of transverse ligament of atlas. Forty patients presented signs and symptoms of myelopathy or spinal cord injury. All of the patients underwent the operation of open reduction and release by transoral approach. The longus collies muscles, longus capitis muscles, anterior longitudinal ligament, atlantoaxial articular capsules, the apical odontoid ligament and alar odontoid ligaments may be included, were transected, followed by arthrodesis via posterior approach in one stage. Different methods of posterior arthrodesis were conducted as followed: C1,2 transarticular screw fixation in 5 cases, occipitocervical fixation using pedicle screws of axis and occipitocervical plate in 37 cases, and C1,2 joint fixation with plates and screws in the lateral masses of the atlas and axis in 12 cases. Results A complete reduction was achieved in 41 cases, and the other 13 patients obtained partial reduction. Forty-eight patients were followed up from 4 to 40 months, 15.7 months at the average. All of them achieved solid arthrodesis. According to Odom's scoring system, among the 38 patients with preoperative upper cervical myelopathy, 15 patients were assessed as excellent, 14 good, 8 fair and 1 poor. During the operation, cerebral spinal fluid leakage occurred in 1 case, and pedicle screwing failed in 1 case. After the operation, respiratory failure was found in 1 case, nasal sound in 3 cases, dysphagia in 1 case. One patient became quadriplegia due to myelitis caused by septicemia at two weeks after the operation. The internal fixation loosened in 1 case at 2 months postoperatively. Conclusion Transorally surgical release for reduction and posterior arthrodeses could achieve satisfactory outcomes in patients with irreducible atlantoaxial dislocation.

Objective To analyze the multi-slices spiral CT (MSCT) findings of hepatic alveolar echinococcosis(HAE), and to evaluate the value of MSCT for diagnosis of HAE. Methods Twenty-six cases with HAE were scanning by MSCT. The raw data were transmitted to advanced workstation for reconstruction imaging. Correlated studies were made between the CT features and pathology or other imaging results. Results Altogether 28 lesions were detected. They all revealed as heterogeneous hypodense mass with ill-defined boundary in plain CT but were easily being distinguished from surrounding parenchyma after contrast medium injection.Characteristics of the lesions include different amount of calcification (26/26), liquefied necrosis in center area (20/26), peripheral lacunae or alveolar signs (15/26), compensatory hypertrophy of healthy hepatic part (18/26) and the retraction in the involved hepatic lobe or segment (12/26). The lesions that located at or extended to hepatic hilum caused dilatation of intra-hepatic biliary ducts(9/26), splenomegaly (12/26), and ascites (1/26). MSCT angiography (CTA) depicted signs of abnormalities of hepatic vessels such as compression, displacement, encasement and occlusion. Compared with findings of operation, the sensitivity, specificity and positive prediction value of CTA for evaluating the hepatic artery system disorders were 88%, 96% and 93%, respectively; and for portal venous system were 95%, 100% and 95%, respectively; while for hepatic venous system were 96%, 86% and 96%, respectively. Conclusion MSCT is able to comprehensive display the CT features and vessels complication of HAE. It provides reliable imaging for both accuracy diagnosis and proper treatment of the disease.
