Objective To compare the efficacy and the side-effect of three different ways in treating the patients with malignant pleural effusion. Methods 98 patients histologically proved malignant pleural effusion were randomly divided into three groups, bleomycin group(BLM), bleomycin with mycobacterium group( BLM + UTL) and blemycin with intertleukino2 ( BLM +IL). 31 patients were treated with bleomycin intrapleural injection in BLM group,32 patients were treated with bleomycin and Utilin's(mycobacterium) intrapleural injection in BLM + ULL group and 35 patients were treated with bleomycin and intertleukin-2 intrapleural injection in BLM + IL group. The therapeutic efficacy, change of performance and side effects were compared among the three groups after one period of treatment. The changes of CEA and TNF in the pleural effusion were examined before and after treatment. Results The therapeutic efficacy and performance improvement were higher in BLM+UTL and BLM+IL group than that of BLM group(P<0. 05) ,the pleural CEA of post-treatment in three groups were lower than that of pre-treatment(P<0.01) ,the CEA after treatment in BLM+UTL group and BLM+IL group was lower than that of BLM group(P<0. 01,respectively). The pleural TNF of post-treatment in BLM+UTL and BLM+IL groups was higher than that of pre-treatment(P<0. 01 ) in BLM group. The pleural TNF of post-treatment in BLM+UTL and BLM+IL group was higher than that of BLM group ( P<0. 01 ). Conclusion Intrapleural injection of mycobacterium with bleomycin or interlekin-2 with bleomycin has better efficacy than using bleomycin only in treating malignant pleural effusion.

Objective To investigate the safety and effectiveness of ultrasound-guided paravertebral anaes-thesia combined with propofol in the thoracoscopic sympathectomy. Methods Total 63 male and 59 female patients with hyperhidrosis were recruited. The patients were equally divided into two groups:group A and C. Patients in group A received ultrasound-guided paravertebral anaesthesia combined with propofol. Patients in group C received general intravenous anesthesia with endotracheal intubation. The heart rate (HR),mean arterial pres-sure(MAP)and the oxygen saturation(SpO2)at the time of entering the operating room(T0),completing anesthe-sia(T1),incising the skin(T2),cutting the T4 sympathetic trunk(T3),completing the operation were record-ed. The awake time after operation ,VAS score after operation and postoperative throat discomfort were also record-ed. Results The two groups successfully completed the surgery. There were no significant differences of the HR , MAP and SpO2 at T0-T4 between the two groups. There were significant differences of the awake time after opera-tion,postoperative feeding time and hospitalization expenses. The VAS score after operation of group A were better than group C(P<0.05)at T2 h,T4 h,T8 h,and T12 h. There was no significant difference of VAS score at T24 h between the two groups. Conclusion Ultrasound-guided paravertebral anaesthesia combined with propofol can pro-vide a safe and effective approach for patients receiving the thoracoscopic sympathectomy.
