Objective To compare the clinical effect of VATS and thoracotomy pulmonary wedge resection in treatment of pulmonary inflammatory pseudotumor. Methods 46 patients with pulmonary inflammatory pseudotumor were randomly divided into the observation group(24 cases) and the control group(22 cases) ,the control group were treated by thoracotomy pulmonary wedge resection and the observation group were treated by VATS wedge resection,the intraoperative blood loss,hospital stay, prognosis and complications were compared. Results All patients of two groups were cured and discharged. The intraoperative blood loss of observation group[(46. 0±12. 3 ) ml] was significantly less than the control group [(95.2 ± 18. 6) ml] ( t = 3. 19, P < 0. 05 ), and the hospital stay was significantly shorter than the control group( t = 3.01,P < 0. 05 ), the difference of the incidence of complications of two groups was not statistically significant( P > 0. 05 ). Conclusion VATS wedge resection of pulmonary inflammatory pseudotumor had features of less bleeding and quicker healing characteristics,could be worthy of clinical application.

Aim To study the effect of Radix Tetrastig-ma Hemsleyani Flavone ( RTHF ) on the proliferation and invasion in lung carcinoma A549 cells as well as the possible mechanisms underlying these processes. Methods A549 cells were treated with different con-centrations of RTHF for different time. MTT assay and colone formation assay were used to detect the ability of cell proliferation. Wound healing methods and tran-swell chamber assay were adopted to determine cell mi-gration and invasion. Western blotting assay was used to detect the expression of metastasis-related proteins MMP-2 , MMP-9 , and TIMP-2 . Results RTHF obvi-ously suppressed the proliferation of A549 cells in a dose-and time-dependent manner. Microscope found an apparent decrease of cells in the denude zone of cell migration and transwell testing results show that the treatment of invasion was significantly lower than the proportion in the control group ( P <0. 01 ) . The pro-tein expressions of MMP-2 and MMP-9 were down-reg-ulated and that of TIMP-2 was up-regulated in a dose-dependent manner. Conclusion RTHF inhibits the growth and invasion of lung carcinoma A549 cells, which might be achieved by down-regulating the ex-pressions of MMP-2 and MMP-9 protein.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of percutaneous CT-guided puncture and steroid injection for the treatment of lumbar intraspinal synovial cysts (LISCs).Methods A patient with clinical symptom of LISCs was undergone percutaneous CT-guided lumbar synovial cyst puncture. After aspiration of the content and steroid injection were accomplished, visual analogue scale was used to evaluate the pain of the patient before and after the treatment.Results Excellent pain relief after aspiration and steroid injection was obtained with the symptom disappearing 4 days after the treatment.Conclusions Aspiration and steroid injection can reduce the pain of the patient with lumbar intraspinal synovial cysts,and it should be the frist choice of non-surgical treatment.

Objective To identify the short and long-term therapeutic benefits of CT-guided transforaminal epidural steroid injections in lumbar spinal stenosis. Methods Thirty six patients with lumbar spinal stenosis shown by CT underwent CT-guided transforaminal epidural steroid injections because of irresponsible to conservative treatment. Patients were evaluated by visual analogue scale (VAS) before the initial injection, at 2 weeks and 1 year after the injection.Results All patients were followed up for 2 weeks and 1 year. 19 ( 52.8%) patients had successful short-term outcome, and 15 ( 41.6%) had long-term outcome. 15 ( 41.6%) patients satisfied with the short-term result and 12 (33.3%) were satisfactory with the long-term result.Conclusions CT-guided transforaminal epidural steroid injection may reduce the pain and improve the quality of life in some patients with lumbar spinal stenosis.

Objective To study the surgical strategies and techniques for the correction of congenital kyphoscoliosis with hemivertebra and evaluate the surgical results. Methods From June 2010 to June 2011,there were 6 congenital kyphoscoliostic patients with fully segmented hemivertebra were undergone hemivertebra resection through posterior approach, which included 4 males and 2 females with an average age of 15.7 years. The average Cobb angle of scoliosis was 73.4° (range, 52°~87°), the average Cobb angle of segmental kyphosis was 67.4° (range, 43°~89°) . The highest level of hemivertebrae was T9 and the lowest was L2. The surgical strategies were designed as followed:For the 2 cases without structural compensative curve, the posterior hemiverte-brae resection and short segmental internal fixation were performed. For the 4 cases with structural compensative curve, whose Risser signs were classified into 2-5, the hemivertebrae resection and long segmental internal fixa-tion were performed, and the compensative curve was included in the instrumentation level. Results The opera-tion time was 2.5~4.0 h (average,3.5 hours), the blood loss was 700-2 000 mL (mean,1 367 mL) . Numb-ness happened in one lower extremity postoperatively in 1 patient, and the symptom released in 1 month. The aver-age postoperative Cobb angle in coronal plane was 21.4° (11°~28°) with a correction rate of 67.9%. The aver-age postoperative Cobb angle in sagittal plane was 17.8° (12°~35°) with a correction rate of 75.2%. The fol-low-up period was from 26 months to 36 months (average, 26 months),no pseudoarthrosis,and obvious correc-tion loss either in coronal or sagittal plane was noted. Conclusion Hemivertebra resection and individualized oper-ation way has a good capability of correcting congenital kyphoscoliosis caused by hemivertebra.

Objective To observe the effects of standardized pain management on old patients with hip fracture. Methods From January, 2015 to June, 2016, 75 old patients (more than 58 years old) with hip fracture were randomly divided into control group (n=37) and observa-tion group (n=38). The control group accepted routine pain management, while the observation group accepted standardized pain manage-ment. They were assessed with Visual Analogue Score (VAS) of the most intensive pain, and their scores for satisfaction were compared. Re-sults There was no significant difference in VAS between two groups before operation (Z=0.845, P>0.05). The VAS was significantly lower in the observation group than in the control group postoperatively (Z=5.427, P<0.001). The scores of satisfaction was more in the observa-tion group than in the control group (t=21.346, P<0.001). Conclusion Standardized pain management can significantly reduce perioperative pain in old patients after hip fracture surgery, and improve the satisfaction.
