Results 5 babies underwent the total cyst excision and hepato-cholangio-jejunostomy successfully and quickly recovered.Only a girl transferred to open operation because of previous operative history. Conclusions Laparoscopic treatment of choledochal cyst is feasible and satisfied outcome.

Objective The aim of this study was to discuss the technical details on laparoscopic total cyst excision with Roux Y hepatoenterostomy for the treatment of choledochal cyst in children.Methods Eight patients with type Ⅰ choledochal cyst (median age 3 6 years) underwent laparoscopic cyst excision with Roux Y hepatoenterostomy from July 2001 to April 2002.Under laparoscopic guidance, intraoperative cholangiogram was performed, the gallbladder and the dilated bile duct were completely excised. Roux en Y jejunojejunostomy was performed extracorporeally through umbilical incision (2 cm), and an end to side anastomosis was carried out intracorporeally.Results Median duration of operation was 4 8 hours (3 6 to 6 0 hours), intraoperative bleeding was between 10 to 50 ml. Hospital stay after the operation ranged from 3 to 8 days. There was no intra or postoperative complication.ConclusionLaparoscopic total cyst excision with Roux Y hepatoenterostomy was effective and safe procedure for children with choledochal cyst.

Objective To explore the distribution of alkane, alcohol and ketone in indoor air of some apartments in Hangzhou. Methods 55 air samples were randomly collected from 31 apartments in Hangzhou by Carbotrap 300 air-sampling tube, during October-December, 2002, and April-May, 2003, then the volatile organic compounds in air samples were determined by heat-desorption GC-MS. Results 41 kinds of alkane, 11 kinds of alcohol and 9 kinds of ketone were found in air samples collected from 31 apartments in Hangzhou, average concentration of total alkane was 24.096 7 ?g/m3, average concentration of total alcohol was 3.670 7 ?g/m3, and average concentration of total ketone was 33.492 4 ?g/m3 respectively. The dominant indoor air pollutants were hexane, heptane, octane, nonane, decane, undecane, dimethylbutane, methylhexane, n-butanol, cyclohexanone, propanone, 2-butanone. The concentrations of alkane, alcohol and ketone in indoor air of apartments decreased with the time went on after the house decoration finished on the whole. 10 of 14 alkanes showed positive correlation to the temperature, 6 of them to the relative humidity at the sampling points. 2 of 11 alcohols and 3 of 9 ketones showed positive correlation to the relative humidity at sampling points. Conclusion The increasing temperature is the important factor for the release of alkanes in indoor air. The increasing relative humidity is the influence factor for the release of alcohols, ketones, and some alkanes in indoor air.
