Objective To investigate the efifcacy and adverse effect of ultrasound-guided injection of different dosage of thrombin in the treatment of femoral artery pseudoaneurysm formed after vascular intervention. Methods 48 cases of femoral artery pseudoaneurysm after vascular interventional operation in our hospital were randomly divided into two groups according to the dosage thrombin given.Under ultrasound guidance, patients in the observation group (n=24) received injection thrombin 100U/ml while patients in the control group received injection of thrombin 500U/ml.All the operational procedures were identical between the 2 groups. Results No statistical differences were found in clinical characteristics, total number injection needed and operation time between two groups.Recurrence pseudoaneurysm was noted in 1 cases in the observation group. 2 cases of superifcial femoral arteries thrombin and 1 case of fever were recorded in control group. There was no difference in adverse event rates between the 2 group. Conclusions Ultrasound-guided injection with low dose thrombin in the treatment of post interventional femoral artery pseudoaneurysm is equally effective as higher dose.

BACKGROUND:Vascularization is essential for wound healing and functional recovery during soft tissue repair.Adipose tissue is believed to be the body's largest source of stem cells,and a number of different fat complexes have been developed for research and treatment.Its ability to promote angiogenesis and soft tissue repair has been extensively studied. OBJECTIVE:To review the progress of vascularization in soft tissue repair,and to summarize the preparation methods of adipose tissue and its derivative and their applications in vascularization and soft tissue repair.It is proven that adipose tissue and its derivative have excellent research value and clinical application prospects in vascular and soft tissue engineering. METHODS:PubMed,Web of Science and CNKI databases were used to search the related articles published from January 2010 to February 2023.The search terms were"soft tissue repair,wound healing,vascularization,angiogenesis,adipose tissue,stromal vascular fraction,adipose tissue-derived microvascular fragment,nanofat,adipose extracellular matrix/stromal vascular fraction gel"in Chinese and English.A small number of old classic literature was also included.An initial screening was performed by reading the titles and abstracts to exclude literature that was not relevant to the topic of the article,and 69 papers were finally included for the analysis of the result. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Wound healing is an important physiological process,which mainly occurs when tissue is damaged,such as injury,surgery,burn,tumor,infection and vascular disease caused by tissue damage and defects.(2)Adequate vascularization of the wound site is essential for tissue repair,reconstruction of local homeostasis and functional recovery.(3)Adipose tissue is believed to be the body's largest pool of stem cells and a number of different fat components have been used for research and treatment.(4)Due to its inherent composition and preparation advantages,adipose tissue will continue to play an important role in tissue engineering research and therapy.

A 68-year-old male was admitted due to fatigue and poor appetite and diagnosed pathologically as pancreatic adenocarcinoma with liver metastasis. The tumor marker carbohydrate antigen 199 (CA199) level was 2003.4 U/mL. The patient received two cycles of modified FOLFIRINOX plus immune checkpoint inhibitor (penpulimab). However, the tumor did not shrink and CA199 level was even higher. Anlotinib was added from the 3rd cycle, and the size of primary tumor and metastatic lesions were significantly reduced. Laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy and splenectomy as well as liver metastasis resection was performed. Three cycles of combined therapy were adopted after surgery followed by maintenance therapy with anlotinib plus penpulimab. There was no evidence of tumor recurrence during the follow-up (nearly 19 months since diagnosis).
