Objective To investigate the diagnosis and treatment of injury in choledocho-pancreatico-duodenal junction. Methods The clinical data of 6 patients with injury in choledocho-pancreatico-duodenal junction who had been admitted to Beijing Hospital from January 2000 to January 2008 were retrospectively analyzed. Results Of the 6 patients, 4 were diagnosed according to the intraoperative findings, cholangiography and fiber cholangioscopy. The 4 patients were cured after suture of the perforation in the choledocho-pancreatico-duodenal junction, T-tube drainage and abdominal drainage. Two patients developed severe abdominal and retroperitoneal infection and other complications after operation, and were diagnosed by cholangiography and fiber cholangioscopy. Of the 2 patients, 1 was cured and 1 died after multiple drainage procedures and debridement. Conclusions Diagnosis and treatment in the early stage are crucial for the curative purpose. Cholangingraphy and fiber cholangioscopy are effective in the diagnosis of injury in choledocho-pancreatico-duodenal junction. The suture of the perforation in the choledocho-pancreatico-duodenal junction, T-tube drainage and abdominal drainage should be chosen for patients who are diagnosed during primary operation. For patients with abdominal and retroperitoneal abscess and cellulitis, drainage and debridement should be performed, and biliopancreatic diversion and duodenal diverticularizatian are applied to patients when necessary.

Objective To study the effect of inosine monophosphate dehydrogenase inhibitor (IMPDHI) on maturation, migration, endocytosis and allostimulatory properties of human peripheral myeloid dendritic cell (MDC). Methods PBMC from healthy donors were isolated. MDC were cocultured with PBMC and exposed to mycophenolic acid (MPA) for 48 h. The expression of co-stimulatory and adhesion molecules as well as chemokine receptors on MDC was analyzed by flow cytometry. In separate experiments,MDC were cultured with or without MPA, and their endocytosis function was estimated by means of FITC dextran uptake. MDC migration experiments were performed in Transwell chambers. Inflammatory chemo kines were added to the lower chambers and MDC numbers were analyzed by flow cytometry. MPA treated (48 h) BDCA-1 + DC served as stimulator cells in MLR. Allogenic healthy CD4 T responder cells were labeled with fluorescent dye CFSE and measured by flow cytometry. Results Maturation: compared to the control group, the expression of CD40, CD62L, HLA-DR, CD54, CD80, CD83 and CD86 on MDC in study group were significantly down-regulated ( P < 0.05 ). Chemokine receptor and migration: compared to control group, the expression of CCR1 on MDC in study group was up-regulated significantly (17.02 ±3.23 vs 30.63 ± 9.13, P < 0.05 ), the expression of CCR3 ( 10.26 ± 2.25 vs 5.81 ± 0.97, P < 0.05 ) and CCR7(9.56 ± 1.84 vs 5.18 ±0.60, P <0. 05) on MDC were down-regulated significantly in the study group.MDC in study group showed enchanced migratory response to inflammatory chemokine CCL2, CCL3, CCL4,CCL7, CXCL12 (P<0.05). Endocytotic capacity: the capacity of endocytosis in study group was signifi cantly higher than that in control group( P < 0.05 ). Llostimulatory capacity: MPA-treated MDC exhibited a markedly reduced ability to stimulate allogenic CD4+ T cell proliferation. Conclusion Treatment of MDC with MPA exhibited an immature phenotype, a propensity to migrate in response to inflammatory chemokines, increased endocytotic capacity and impaired allogenic ability of MDC.
