Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of laparoscopic hepatectomy.Methods The clinical data of 258 patients who received laparoscopic hepatectomy at the First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University from March 2010 to January 2013 were retrospectively analyzed.There were 196 patients with primary hepatic cancer,45 with hepatic hemangioma,13 with hepatic focal nodular hyperplasia,2 with hepatic metastatic cancer,1 with carcinoma of gallbladder and 1 with hepatic hamartoma.All patients were followed up via phone call or out-patient examination till March 2013.Results A total of 142 patients received single hepatic segmentectomy,98 received multiple hepatic segmentectomy,18 received multiple lesions resection.Fifty-one patients received hepatic tumorectomy + cholecystectomy.All the operations were successfully done under laparoscope without conversion to the open surgery.The mean tumor diameter and the operation time were (5 ± 3) cm (range,1.0-11.5 cm) and (113 ± 56) minutes (range,50-310 minutes),respectively.Intraoperative hepatic portal occlusion was performed on 122 patients,and the time for hepatic portal occlusion was (15 ± 7)minutes.The volume of intraoperative blood loss was (211 ± 195)mL (range,10-650 mL),and blood transfusion was not needed.The capsule of the tumor was complete.The distance between the resection margin and the malignant tumor was above 1.5 cm,and there was no residual tumor in the resection margin.The hepatic function was back to the normal level in 1 week after the operation,and no patient had hepatic failure.The duration of postoperative hospital stay was (7.2 ± 1.3)days (range,5-10 days).One patient was complicated with bile leakage,6 with slight peritoneal effusion,and other patients had no postoperative complications.The rate of follow-up was 91.47％ (236/258),and the time of follow-up was (16 ± 10) months.A total of 199 patients with malignant hepatic tumors were followed up.During the follow-up,180 patients had tumor-free survival; 18 patients had postoperative tumor recurrence; 1 patient had omental metastasis and received surgical resection.Thirty-seven patients with benign hepatic tumor survived without complication during the follow-up.Conclusion Laparoscopic hepatectomy is effective for the treatment of hepatic tumors.Multiple hepatic inflow occlusion under laparoscope in a short time may improve the safety of surgery,without prolonging the recovery time of patients.

Objective To investigate the correlated factors of pulmonary metastasis of hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC),so as to provide theoretical evidences for the prevention and treatment.Methods The clinical data of 862 patients with HCC who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University from January 2008 to March 2012 were retrospectively analyzed.There were 107 patients with pulmonary metastasis.Factors including serum alpha fetoprotein (AFP) level,serum gamma-glutamyl transpeptidase (GGT) level,hepatitis B virus (HBV) infection,presence and treatment of intrahepatic tumor were analyzed to screen out relevant factors of pulmonary infection of HCC.Univariate and multivariate COX regression model analysis were performed for data analysis.Results The results of univariate analysis showed that high level of AFP (≥400 μg/L),ultra-high level of GGT (≥ 150 U/L),presence of HBV infection,the number of intrahepatic tumors ≥2,no radical resection (or radiofrequency ablation) for intrahepatic tumors,combining with tumor thrombi in the vessels,lymph node metastasis were risk factors of pulmonary metastasis of HCC (RR =1.986,3.653,0.365,3.675,0.252,0.379,0.352,P ＜ 0.05).The results of multivariate analysis showed that high level of AFP (≥400 μg/L),HBV infection,the number of intrahepatic tumors ≥2,no radical resection (or radiofrequency ablation) for intrahepatic tumors,combining with tumor thrombi in the vessels were risk factors of pulmonary metastasis of HCC (RR =2.391,3.462,3.425,3.396,2.418,0.638,P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions AFP ≥400 μg/L,HBV infection,the number of intrahepatic tumors ≥ 2,no radical resection (or radiofrequency ablation),tumor thrombi in the vessels and lymph node metastasis are risk factors of pulmonary metastasis of HCC.Anti-hepatitis virus treatment and early treatment are helpful for the prevention and treatment.

Objective To observe the effects of hepatic artery reconstruction in rat with orthotopic liver transplantation(OLT)on ultrastructure changes of intrahepatic biliary epithelial cells after ischemia reperfusion iniury and postoperative biliary complications. Methods Male SD rats were divided into sham operation group (SO),OLT with hepatic artery reconstruction group(HA)and OLT without hepatic artery reconstruction group (NA).The liver tissue samples were collected at 0.5,3,6,12,24,36,48 hours after ischemia reperfusion in both HA grouD and NA group.The uhrastructure of intrahepatic biliary epithelial cells was observed by transmission electron microscope,and the morphometric analysis by the computer image analysis system.The postoperative biliary complications were also observed.Results In HA group and NA group,the injury of intrahepatic biliary epithelial cells aggravated gradually along with the reperfusion.The uhrastructure changes,such as enlarged mitochondria,blurred or disappeared cristae and decreased number of microvilli,were most significant at 24 hours and then recovered gradually.The mitochondrial average area and average perimeter were increased and the mitochondrial numerical densitv was decreased gradually along with the reperfusion.At 24,36,48 hours,the mitochondrial average area and average perimeter in NA group were significantly greater than those in HA group(t=-3.566,-7.780,-4.730,-4.610,-2.599,-5.730,P＜0.05).The average numerial density of mitochondia in NA group was significantly less than that in HA group at 36,48 hours(t=-4.619,4.000,P＜0.05).The incidence rate of biliary complications in HA group is significantly lower than that in NA group(x2=4.286,P＜0.05).Conclusions Hepatic artery reconstruction in rat with OLT has an protective effect on the uhrastructure of intrahepatic biliary epithelial cells after ischemia reperfusion.It is beneficial to the recovery of intrahepatic bile duct epithelial cells and can reduce the incidence rate of biliary complications.

Objective To explore the effect of bellybutton exposure on premature navel nursing effect.Method Three hundred and ninety-three premature infants were randomly divided into experiment group(n=195)and control group(198). Bellybutton fasciation and bellybutton exposure were used in the control group and the experiment group respectively. The two groups were compared in terms of umbilical shedding,time of umbilical healing,umbilical swelling,bleeding and breathing.Result The umbilical healing time in the experiment group was significantly shorter than that of the control group(P<0.05). The incidences of omphalitis,umbilical swelling and bleeding, changed breathing in the experiment group were significantly lower than those of the control group(all P<0.05).Conclusion The bellybutton exposure is effective in promoting the umbilical shedding in premature infants and reducing the incidence rate of premature navel infection.

Objective To explore the effects of combined infusion of Treg cells from recipient rats and imDCs from donor rats prolonging the survival time of rats undergoing allogeneic orthotopic liver transplantation.Methods One hundred cases of rat allogeneic orthotopic liver transplantation were performed by using modified two-cuff method: DA rats served as donors,and Lewis rats as recipients,which were divided into 5 groups: acute rejection group,mDC group,imDC group,Treg group,co-infusion group (imDC-Treg group).2 × 106 imDC,2 × 106 mDC and 1 × 107 Treg cells were respectively injected to Lewis rats in every group via caudal vein before transplantation.Four Lewis rats from each group were randomly sacrificed on the day 3,7 and 10 after transplantation.Liver function (ALT and TBIL) and changes of cytokines (IL-10,IL-2 and TGF-β) were evaluated in peripheral blood.The pathological changes of the liver graft were observed.The DNA fragmentation characteristics of apoptosis in the liver were detected by using TUNEL staining.Survival analysis was performed on remnant rats.Results The liver function in imDC-Treg group had reverted to normal faster than that in the control groups.ELISA revealed that at day 7,the serum levels of IL-10 and TGF-β were higher,and the serum levels of IL-2 were lower in imDC-Treg group.Liver pathology demonstrated that there was only a slight number of mononuclear cell infiltration in hepatic graft afterorthotopic liver transplantation in co-infusion group (imDC-Treg group),which belonged to a nonidentified or slight type of acute rejection,and the liver graft showed regeneration of hepatocytes along with a small number of neutrophile granulocyte infiltration at the day 10.TUNEL staining indicated that the number of apoptotic T cells was much less in control groups than in imDC-Treg groups.The survival time of recipients in Treg-imDC group was 37 days,significantly longer than in irnDC group (23 days) and Treg group (15 days).Conclusion Infusion of imDC from donor rats or Treg from recipient rats alone couldn't induce long-term allograft survival of recipients after allogeneic rat liver transplantation.The co-infusion of Treg and imDC significantly prolonged the survival time of rats subject to allogeneic liver transplantation.

Objective To calculate the residoal liver volume using a virtaal liver surgery planning system,and to investigate the value of standardized estimated liver remnant volume ratio (STELR) in prcdicting hepatic dysfunction after hepatectomy.MethodsThe clinical data of 76 patients with primary liver cancer who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University from April 2007 to October 2011 were retrospectivcly analyzed.The virtual resection and residual liver volume measurements were carried out using Liv 1.0 software.The value of STELR in predicting hepatic dysfunction was assessed using receiver operator characteristic (ROC) curves.Effects of different risk factors on postoperative hepatic dysfunction were analyzed using univariate analysis of variance and multivariate Logistic regression models. Results The mean residual liver volumes predicted by the software and resected during operation were (489 ± 206)ml and (459 ± 199 )ml,respectively,with a positive correlation between predicted and actual resection volumes (r =0.916,P ＜ 0.05).Of the 76 patients,48 had mild hepatic dysfunction,19 had moderate hepatic dysfunction and 9 had severe hepatic dysfunction.A critical STELR of 53％ was associated with severe hepatic dysfunction.Severe hepatic dysfunction was detected in 2 out of 59 (3％) patients with STELR ≥ 53％ and 7 out of 17 (41％) patients with STELR ＜ 53％,which represented a significant difference ( x2 =5.085,P ＜ 0.05 ).The result of univariate analysis revealed that STEL,R,operating time,intraoperative blood loss were significant prognostic indicators for severe hepatic dysfunction ( F =7.227,8.630,13.809,P ＜0.05).Multivariate Logistic regession revealed that STELR was a significant independent predictor of severe hepatic dysfunction ( Wald =6.675,P ＜ 0.05 ).Conclusion The likelihood of severe hepatic dysfunction after hepatectomy can be predicted by STELR.

Objective To investigate the character of real-time gray-scale contrast-enhanced ultrasonography (CEUS) and its clinical value in diagnosing hepatic focal lesion. Methods One hundred and three patients with 142 focal hepatic lesions were examined by CEUS after an intravenous administration of the contrast agent, then the characters of the images were analyzed. Results The initial contrast-enhanced signal patterns were classified into 5 modes, peak contrast-enhanced signal patterns into 4 modes, and contrast agent perfusion patterns into 7 modes. Different lesions had different characters of contrast-enhanced phases. The accuracy rate of the CEUS in diagnosing focal hepatic lesion was 93.0%. which was significantly higher than that of conventional ultrasound and contrast-enhanced CT (X2=47.430, P<0.05). Conclusions The characteristic initial contrast-enhanced pattern and contrast agent perfusion pattern are helpful in the differential diagnosis of hepatic focal lesion, while peak contrast-enhanced signal pattern is relatively unreliable. Compared with conventional ultrasound and contrast-enhanced CT, CEUS can dramatically improve the accuracy of qualitative diagnosis of hepatic focal lesion.

Aim To investigate the preventive effect of Polygonum Multiflorum (PM)on the deteriorated mi-cro-structure and biomechanical properties induced by prednisone.Methods Ninety 6-month-old male Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly divided into nine groups,which were control,prednisone,CAL,30%ethanol eluent of the PM(H,M,L),PM(H,M,L). Prednisone was gavaged to rat for 21 weeks as model group of osteoporosis.Meanwhile,tested herbal ab-stract were orally administrated to the modeled rats in-duced by prednisone.At the end of the experiment, the right femur was collected for micro-CT scanning, three-dimensional reconstruction and biomechanical test.Results Compared with the control group,mod-el group showed destruction of bone microarchitecture, BV /TV fell 28.6%(P <0.05),bone biomechanical parameters decreases,and stiffness fell 29.7%(P <0.01 ). Compared with the model group, positive group had significantly improved effect on bone micro-architecture,and biomechanical parameters,BV /TV increased 46.7%(P <0.01 ),and stiffness increased 25.9%(P <0.01 ).30% ethanol eluent of the PM (M,L)dose may improve bone microstructure by in-creasing BV /TV 46.7% (P <0.01 ),40.0% (P <0.05)respectively,PM(H)may improve the biome-chanical parameters by increasing stiffness 24.7%(P<0.05),and 30% ethanol eluent of the PM(H)and PMhigh-dose may improve the biomechanical parame-ters,but not as positive group.Conclusions Predni-sone reduces biomechanical properties of rat femur and deteriorates femoral microstructure.30% ethanol eluent of the PM(M,L)and PM(H)plays a preventive role in the changes of micro-structural and biomechanical properties by prednisone,and increases BMD,whereas other groups have no significant preventive effect.
