The records of 10 consecutive cases that sustaining traumatic CCF were retrospectively reviewed.The age of cases ranged from 18 to 55 years old, and all of them were complicated with fracture of orbit and base of skull.The causes of injuries, the characteristics of ocular manifestations,the findings in CT or cerebral angiography, and methods of treatment of CCF were analysed. The results showed that 9 cases were cured by operation (90%). The cavernous sinus fistulae were closed. The ocular signs such as exophthalmos, vascular murmur in eyelid and conjunctival swelling disappeared.One case had remaining exophthalmos.Nine patients who were cured were followed up for 6 months to 10 years.No ocular signs recurred in all cases. In 2 cases there were mild complications.It suggested that the pulsating exophthalmos,vessel murmur in eyelid and marked conjunctival vessel dilatation were the characteristics of ocular manifestations in CCF. Endovascular embolization with detachable balloon or spring coil is currently the treatment of choice and it is efficacious and safe in traumatic CCF.

Objective To determine the conversion equation for X(copies/ml, lg) quantity values of domestic HCV RNA quantitative fluorescence amplification assays approved by SFDA and Y( IU/ml, lg)reference values of standard substance. Methods The second generation WHO International Standard (NIBSC code:96/798) was mixed with human AB blood type serum to create 7 different dilutions which included 100 000, 50 000, 25 000, 10 000, 5 000, 2 500 and 1 000 IU/ml. Two different batches of each three domestic hepatitis C virus RNA real-time fluorescence quantitative PCR assays and 2 different batches of each assay were employed to detect the 7 different concentration samples with real-time PCR. Each test was performed 4 times repeatedly. Results The correlations between X( copies/ml,lg) values of domestic HCV RNA assays and Y(IU/ml,lg) reference values of standard substance were as follow,Assay A:Y =0. 902 0 X+0.284 9,R2 =0.953 3,P<0. 01,n =56;Assay B: Y=0. 875 7 X +0.562 4,R2 =0.956 5,P<0.01,n =56; Assay C: Y = 0. 843 8 X + 0. 560 5, R2 = 0. 945 8, P < 0. 01, n = 56. Conclusions All the conversion equations are different among the quantity value of three assays and the reference values of standard substance, that suggests it is necessary to perform more stringent traceability analysis for the quantity values of 3 assays. Through standardizing the quantity values preliminarily, the conversion equation can enhance the comparability between the quantity values of different assays, and provide a standard of HCV RNA virus load detection for clinical diagnosis and treatment monitoring of HCV infection.
