The experiment on end-to-side anastomosis of inferior superficial epigastric arteriae and femoralarteriae in the cases of 64 rabbits were accomplished. The vessels used in all the instances were less than 1.0 mm in diameter. The rabbits were divided into two groups. 29 of them were used for study of anastomosis angle, and 35 of them for the study anastomosis orifice of side wall. On same one animal both right and left anastomoses were performed at the same time but with different angles of 45? or 90?, and different size of orifice (with side orifice equal to end one, or side one larger than end one) so as to form a contrast.The results revealed no significance in patancy rates either at the angle of 45? or 90?anastomoses, or between the two above-mentional orifice anastomoses. But the average blood flow of the angle of 45? anastomosis and the side orifice equal anastomosis were significantly higher than of the 90? anastomosis and the side orifice larger anastomosis respectively. The advantage at the angle of 45? was shown in chance of thrombosis and the size of thrombus. Therefore, it is suggested we should choose the angle of 45? and the side orifice equal in end-to-side anastomosis.A method of making side wall orifice by "Tactional Suture and Needle" was recommended.In transferring the free skin flaps by using end-to-side anastomosis, four su-c cessful clinical cases were reported in the paper.

Objective To study the injury percentage of fat cells from human bodies by three methods and four suctioned negative pressures. Methods Fat tissue was removed from lower abdomen by excision, aspiration and suction. A pair of sharp scissors was used to cut excisied adipose tissue into 3mm diameter fat particles. A 4 mm diameter pipet and four negative pressures (-25 kPa, -50 kPa, -76 kPa and -101 kPa) were used to suction fat tissue. The samples were fixed in 10 % buffered formalin, stained with hematoxylin eosin and Wilder's silver methods. The fat cells were observed under light microscope. Results The injury percentage of fat cells removed by three methods were (8.6? 1.8) %, (15.7?2.4) % and (38.4?4.2) % respectively;all of them had significant differences among them. The injury percents of fat cells suctioned under-25 kPa,-50 kPa, -76 kPa and -101 kPa were (26.3?2.5) %, (27.6? 2.6) %, (36.8?3.5) % and (68.9?7.4) % respectively. There were no significant differences between the first two but there were among other groups. Conclusions The injury extent of fat cells has significant differences among 3 methods, in which the excision is the least and the suction is the most serious. The injury extent of fat cells has no significant differences when the pressure is lower than -25 kPa. But when the pressure is higher than -50 kPa, the higher the pressure, the more serious the injury extent.

Objective To study the dynamic changes of DNA content of the fibroblasts in narrow pedicle subdermal vascular network flap (SVNP) during their surviving. Methods Eighteen pieces of surviving skin in pig back with size of 16 cm?8 cm and pedicle wideness of 4 cm were stained with acridine orange, and their DNA contents were measured with the adherent cell analysis and sorting cytometer 570. The tissue samples were taken at 3, 4 ,5 ,and 7 days after operation from different parts of the flap.Results The DNA content of fibroblast in the proximal part of the flap was slightly changed, those in the middle portion increased from 3rd to 5th day and became normal at 7th day, and in the distal portion progressively increased after operation. The results suggested that the transitional part of the flap and skin graft in the middle portion was most active in function and metabolism, and well survived, but the distal portion of the graft was poor in surviving and had a long repairing period. These indicated that local tissue hypoxia stimulated proliferation of fibroblasts and synthesis of the DNA in a short time, but as time wert by, the proliferative speed and DNA synthesis in the individual cell were heterogeneous, probably because of the degeneration or necrosis of some epidermal cells in the graft. Conclusion The wideness and length of the pedicle as well as its vascular anastomoses should be readjusted to promote the blood circulation of the distal skin graft tissues.

Objective To compare the operation and clinical effects of total hip arthroplasty and hemiarthroplasty in the treatment of fracture of femoral neck in elderly patients.Methods 58 elderly patients( ≥85 ) with femoral neck fracture were divided into observation group(n=39) and control group(n=19).The observation group was treated by hemiarthroplasty and the control group was treated by total hip arthroplasty.The operation time,blood loss,hospital stay,postoperative hip functional score and complications were observed and compared between the two groups.Results The operation time and blood loss of the observation group were(71.6 ±9.3)min and (266.8±113.5) ml respectively,which were significantly less than those of the control group ( t=7.89,3.43,all P ＜ 0.05 ).Therer was no significant difference of the hospital stay,postoperative hip functional score and incidence rate of complications between the two groups.Conclusion Hemiarthroplasty was an ideal rmethod in treating fracture of femoral neck in elderly patients,which was effective and simple.

Objective To introduce a method of comprehension correction for secondary lip-nasal deformities after operation of the completely unilateral cleft lip. Methods The correction consisted of the following procedures: reposition of the columella and nasal alar crus by one tractional suture with nostril base narrowing; modification of flat nostril by a MT-plasty at the edge of naris; arising of the nasal alar and nasal dorsor by ePTFE implantation; reconstruction of the Cupid's bow by M type incision and vermilion advancement; repair of the vermilion deficit with the hinge mucosal flap and bipedicle mucosal flaps of the lower lip. Results Twenty-one cases with secondary lip-nasal deformities were successfully corrected by these comprehensive methods. Ten of them were followed-up for three months to 1 year with satisfactory effects. Conclusion The comprehensive methods can be used to correct satisfactorily the secondary lip-nasal deformities after operation of the completely unilateral cleft lip.

The resected specimens of esophageal adenocarcinoma from 73 patients were studied pathohistologically. The results demonstrated stage I in 1 cases; stage IIA 37; stage HB 8 and stage III 27. The incidence of postoperative complications and operative mortality were 4.1% and 1.4% respectively. The overall 5 year survival rate was 28. 3%. The authors pointed out that patients with primary esophageal adenocarcinoma should be operated on early. Even the late stage patients should also be treated surgically, because the esophageal adenocarcinoma is neither sensative to chemotherapy, nor radiotherapy.

Objective To compare hemostatic effect of bilateral uterine artery superior branch ligation and gauze intrauterine filling two methods for the placenta previa cesarean section bleeding.Methods 100 patients with bleeding in cesarean section were randomly divided into observation group (50 cases) and control group (50 cases).The patients in the observation group were treated with bilateral uterine artery ascending branch,and the control group was treated with gauze.The number of blood transfusion,the time of operation,the amount of bleeding,the time of hemostasis,the number of hysterectomy and the occurrence of complications were compared between the two groups.Results The success rate of hemostasis in the observation group (98.0％) was higher than that in the control group (86.0％),the difference was statistically significant (x2 =4.891,P ＜ 0.05).The bleeding volume and hemostasis time were (577.8 ± 55.9) mL,(19.2 ± 10.2)min,the differences between the two groups were statistically significant (t =2.50,3.25,all P ＜ 0.05).The operation time between the two groups had no significant difference (P ＜ 0.05).The transfusion rate and incidence rate of complications in the observation group were 8.0％ and 6.0％,which were significantly lower than those in the control group (22.0％,20.0％),and the differences were statistically significant (x2 =3.843,4.332,all P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion The use of bilateral uterine artery esophageal branching in the placenta previa is effective in controlling bleeding,it has rapid bleeding and low incidence of complications,and is worthy of clinical application.
