Objective To evaluate the therapeutic effect of transarterial chemoembolization (TACE) combined with CT-guided 125I seed implantation in treating hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) complicated by portal vein tumor thrombus(PVTT), and to discuss the technical points. Methods A total of 48 HCC patients with PVTT were enrolled in this study. TACE combined with CT-guided 125I seed implantation was carried out in all 48 patients. Based on the sites of PVTT, the lesions were classified into type A (PVTT within main portal vein), type B(PVTT within level-1 portal branch) and type C(PVTT within level-2 or more distal portal branch). According to whether the 125I seeds were directly implanted into the PVTT or not, the patients were divided into direct in-tumor thrombus implantation group (group A) and around tumor thrombus implantation group (group B; the 125I seeds were implanted in the liver parenchyma or in tumor tissue around the tumor thrombus within 1.7 cm region). The tumor thrombus control rate(TTCR), the disease control rate(DCR), the time to progress(TTP) and the overall survival rate of patients(OS) were determined, and the results were compared among different types and groups. Results TACE combined with CT-guided 125I seed implantation was successfully accomplished in all 48 patients. The median OS of type A, B and C was 8, 11.5 and 15 months respectively(P=0.003);the TTCR of type A, B and C was 61.5%, 70.8%and 72.7%respectively(P=0.548); the DCR of type A, B and C was 69.2%, 75%and 81.8% respectively (P=0.483); the median TTP of type A, B and C was 4.5, 8 and 11 months respectively(P=0.030);the median TTP of intra-hepatic tumor of type A, B and C was 5, 9 and 9.5 months respectively(P=0.012). The median OS in group A and group B was 10 and 11.5 months respectively (P=0.239); the TTCR in group A and group B was 69.2% and 68.2%respectively(P=0.591); the DCR of intra-hepatic tumor in group A and group B was 73.1% and 77.3%respectively(P=0.502); the median TTP of tumor thrombus in group A and group B was 7 and 10 months respectively(P=0.276); and the median TTP of intra-hepatic tumor in group A and group B was 8 and 9.5 months respectively(P=0.089). Conclusion For the treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma complicated by portal vein tumor thrombus, TACE combined with CT-guided 125I seed implantation can effectively control the progress of both the tumor thrombus and the intra- hepatic tumor and prolong patient’s survival time. Implantation of 125I seeds into the portal vein tumor thrombus and implantation of 125I seeds into the liver parenchyma around the tumor thrombus have the same therapeutic results.

Objective To observe the therapeutic effect of Qilin Xintongshu pill for treatment of patients with non-ST segment elevation acute coronary syndromes(NSTE-ACS)accompanied by gastrointestinal bleeding (GIB). Methods A prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted. A total of 67 hospitalized patients in Cardiovascular Department of Qionghai City Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine were divided into therapy group(35 cases)and control group(32 cases). Both groups were given conventional medical treatment(except anti-coagulative agent). In the therapy group,the patients received Qilin Xintongshu pill(the ingredients consisting of panax pseudo-ginsen,dragon's blood,immature orange fruit,etc.)oral administration,once 5 mg and 3 times a day,while in the control group,the patients accepted clopidogrel orally,once 75 g and once a day,the therapeutic course in both groups being 30 days. The major cardiovascular events(such as death,a newly-happened myocardial infarction(MI),MI secondary,obstinately ischemia)and incidence of massive hemorrhage of gastrointestinal tract were compared between the two groups,and the adverse events were observed. Results After treatment,the incidence of cardiovascular events and massive hemorrhage of gastrointestinal tract in the therapy group were decreased significantly compared to those in the control group 〔incidence of cardiovascular events:8.57%(3/35)vs. 28.13%(9/32), incidence of massive hemorrhage of gastrointestinal tract:2.86%(1/35)vs. 21.88%(7/32),both P<0.05〕. Adverse events were not observed in both groups,and the examinations of blood,urine,liver and renal functions were of no abnormalities before and after treatment. Conclusion Qilin Xintongshu pill can effectively reduce the incidences of cardiovascular events and massive hemorrhage of gastrointestinal tract in patients with NSTE-ACS accompanied by GIB in the therapeutic course of 30 days,therefore this traditional Chinese herbal medicine is an ideal agent for treatment of such disease.

Objective:To report a rare type of aortic arch aneurysm. Methods: Three cases of aortic arch aneurysm derived from the fourth aortic arch were retrospectively analyzed. The pathogenesis and treatment of this type of aortic arch aneurysm were investigated. Results:Most of the aneurysm body was located in the Z2 zone, which was the stem from the fourth aortic arch in the embryonic development period. All of the 3 cases could not be explained by common etiology. We speculated that the cause might be developmental anomaly of the fourth aortic arch. All the 3 aortic arch aneurysms were totally ex-cluded with a covered stent. The technical success rate was 100%. Endoleak of typeⅠwas seen in one case, which was resolved in a later open surgery. During the follow-up, no type of complications was found. Conclusion:To the best of our knowledge, this is the first report of this type of aortic arch aneurysm. The cause may be developmental anomaly of the fourth aortic arch. Endovascular treatment of this type of aortic arch aneurysm is feasible.

Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of Qilinxintongshu pill for treatment of critical patients with unstable angina pectoris (UAP) accompanied by upper alimentary tract damage.Methods A prospective randomized controlled trial was conducted. A total of 60 critical outpatients or inpatients with confirmed diagnosis of UAP accompanied by upper alimentary tract damage in Cardiology Department of Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Qionghai City from November 2011 to January 2015 were enrolled in the study, and they were assigned to a therapy group (30 cases) and a control group (30 cases) by table of random number. The conventional medical basic therapy was given to both groups, in addition, the patients in therapy group took Qilinxintongshu pill (made of notoginseng, dragon's blood, fruit of immature citron, etc.) 5 g once, three times a day, and the patients in control group orally administered clopidogrel 75 mg once a day, the therapeutic course being consecutive 30 days. After treatment, the rates of main cardiovascular events [including death, a newly-happened myocardial infarction (MI), and obstinate ischemia] and events of alimentary damage were compared between the two groups, and adverse effects were observed.Results There was no statistically significant difference in incidence of cardiovascular events between the therapy group and control group [6.7% (2/30) vs. 16.7% (5/30),P > 0.05]. The incidence of massive hemorrhage of gastrointestinal tract was significantly lower in therapy group than that in control group [10.0% (3/30) vs. 36.7% (11/30),P < 0.05]. In the treatment process, there was no significant untoward side effect, and no abnormalities in routine blood and urine tests, liver and renal functions were found.Conclusion Qilinxintongshu pill for treatment of critical patients with UAP accompanied by upper alimentary damage is safe and effective, and does not enhance the incidence of massive hemorrhage of gastrointestinal tract.

Objective To establish two types of portal hypertension (PHT) models in mice by using bile duct ligation (BDL) method and carbon tetrachloride (CCl4) induction technique respectively. Methods A total of 24 C57BL/6 mice were randomly and equally divided into the following four groups with 6 mice in each group: group BDL, control group of BDL, group CCl4, and control group of CCI4. After the establishment of PHT, the main portal vein was punctured in all experimental mice to measure the portal vein pressure, and blood sampling was collected to test serum alanine aminotransferase (ALT) and aspartate aminotransferase (AST) levels. Using hematoxylin eosin (HE) and sirius red staining the liver tissues were pathologically examined. Immunohistochemical study of alpha smooth muscle actin (SMA) was adopted to evaluate the liver function, hepatic fibrosis and hepatic stellate cell activation status. Results Both modeling methods could make the portal vein pressure increased in experimental mice. The increasing of portal vein pressure in group CCl4 was more obvious. Compared with their corresponding control groups, the degree of liver damage, hepatic fibrosis and hepatic stellate cell activation in group BDL and group CCl4 were more serious. Conclusion Both BDL method and CCl4 induction technique can successfully establish the mouse model of PHT. All the portal venous pressure, the serum biochemical indices and the changes of liver pathology of the mouse model are well in line with the characteristics of PHT in human.

Objective:To study the use of radioactive I-125 seed implantation in the treatment of transarterial chemoembolization (TACE)-refractory hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on 70 patients with HCC who were initially treated with TACE between July 1, 2016 and August 31, 2019 at the Second Affiliated Hospital of Guangzhou Medical University. After these patients were found to be refractory to TACE, 29 patients were converted to radioactive I-125 seed implantation (the 125I seed group), and 41 patients were continued with TACE (the TACE group). The objective response rate, progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), total overall survival (TOS) of the two groups were compared. Results:There were 59 males and 11 females, aged (60.5±11.9 ) years in this study. At 1, 3, 6 months after treatment, the objective response rates of the 125I seed group were 20.7%, 40.7%, 34.6%, respectively, which were significantly higher than that of the TACE group of 2.6%, 3.3%, 5.0%, respectively. The PFS, OS, TOS in the 125I seed group were 7.6, 21.1, 32.1 months, respectively, which were significantly better when compared with the TACE group (3.5, 8.5, 14.8 months, respectively, all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the embolization syndrome between the two groups [93.1%(27/29) vs 100.0%(41/41), P>0.05]. Child-Pugh B grading ( HR=0.311, 95% CI: 0.160-0.603, P=0.005) and TACE ( HR=0.308, 95% CI: 0.159-0.597, P=0.002) were independent risk prognostic factors for survival. Conclusion:This study showed better treatment efficacy and safety using radioactive I-125 seed implantation in TACE-refractory HCC and this treatment significantly improved survival of patients when compared with TACE alone.
