To observe the curative effect of treating small -incision cataract extraction by intraocular lens implantation combined with trabeculectomy for primary angle-closure glaucoma with cataract.
●METHODS: Totally 44 cases (52 eyes) of primary angle-closure glaucoma combined with cataract were selected to undergo the combined surgery, in order to observe the patients' pre - and postoperative eyesights, intraocular pressures and the postoperative complications.
●RESULTS: The postoperative eyesight was improved significantly as compared with the preoperative eyesight. The intraocular pressure was declined dramatically. The result was of statistical significance (P<0. 05). All the 52 cases' surgeries were performed by the same surgeon. The surgeries were processed smoothly, with 6 postoperative eyes of anterior chamber inflammation cell response, 3 eyes of anterior chamber fibrinoid exudate, 2 eyes of shallow anterior chamber through mydriasis and treatment with glucocorticoids and non - steroidal eyedrops before absorption, and no complications like malignant glaucoma, cyclodialysis, etc. were reported through mydriasis and pressure bandaging before recovery.
● CONCLUSlON: Treating the primary angle - closure glaucoma combined with cataract through the combined surgery has high reliability and desirable curative effect. The surgical method is simple to learn and applicable for promotion on the basic level.

OBJECTIVETo observe the spores germinating process of Cibotium barometz, and understand the growth principle provided for experience for indoor culturing and further research.

METHODThe spores of C. barometz were cultured both in inorganic medium and in the soil from original habitat, and the whole process of spores germination and the development of gametophytic were observed under microscope.

RESULTThe spores germinated about 1-2 weeks after being sowed, and the type of germination belonged to Vittaria-type. The prothallial plates formed in 25 days after being sowed, while hairs developed after the formation of the prothallial plate. The gametophyte formed about 40 days after being sowed. But the type of mature prothalli was cordate. The antheridia formed in 60 days after inoculation, while the archegonia developed in 10 days after the formation of antheridia.

CONCLUSIONSoil based indoor culturing of C. barometz spores is practical and can be used for cultivation of C. barometz.

Objective To explore the establishment of a rat model of acute radiation-induced liver injury and sig-nificance of the dynamic changes of TGF-β1 expression.Methods Forty healthy 6-week old male SD rats were randomly divided into model group (n=30) and control group (n=10).The right liver of rats in the model group was given a single dose of 25 Gy 6 MV X-ray irradiation.Histopathological examination using HE staining and transmission electron microsco-py were conducted to observe the liver pathological changes in rats at 3, 5, and 10 days after irradiation, serum TGF-β1 was detected, and relevant indicators of liver function ( ALT, AST, ALP) were determined.Statistical analysis was per-formed using SPSS 17.0 software.Results At 3, 5 and 10 days after irradiation, early pathological changes in the liver cells were observed by electron microscopy, the expression of TGF-β1 was gradually increased with the time prolongation, and significant differences were found between the model group and the control group at different time points (P<0.05). The light microscopic observation of liver tissues did not show significant differences between the control group and model group.The liver ALT, AST, ALP at different time points did not show significant differences between the two groups ( P>0.05).Conclusion Electron microscopy can be used to evaluate the early changes of radiation-induced liver injury, pri-or to the alterations visible by routine light microscopy.TGF-β1 can be used to predict the degree of radiation-induced liver injury, and may be used as a sensitive serum cytokine in predicting the degree of radiation-induced acute liver injury.

The fused tooth is the union of two dental enamel or dentin formed together. In the maxillary, the fusion usually occurred within the lateral incisor and canine and very rarely occurred in the upper third molar and supernumerary tooth. This paper reported a fused tooth occurred in the left maxillary impacted third molar with supernumerary tooth.

OBJECTIVETo present a batch of data of transected pancreatic neck injuries and to sum up the experience in surgical interventions for the injuries.

METHODSWe analysed 13 patients with a transected injury to the pancreatic neck from Jan. 1995 to Dec. 2000. External drainage was performed in all patients. Pancreatoduodenectomy was conducted in 2 patients with a transected injury to the pancreatic neck associated with duodenal ruptures, and TPN was administered immediately after operation. Proximal closure of the transected margin and distal pancreaticojejunostomy was performed in 4 patients. Proximal closure of the transected margin and distal pancreaticojejunostomy plus splenectomy was performed in 7 patients associated with contusion of pancreatic body or tail plus spleen rupture.

RESULTS12 patients healed and one patient died of anesthetic accident during the course of restoration of the dislocation of his right hip joint. Complications occurred in 7 patients.

CONCLUSIONSThe operation should be performed according to the degree of the injuries and associated duodenal injuries. Routine drainage and nutrient support should be recommended.

Objective To evaluate the usefulness of narrow-band imaging with magnification in differentiating colorectal lesions, and assess for a learning curve, to gave help for the clinician, who want to carry out the technique. Method We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 289 patients who underwent NBI combined with magnification by four endoscopic physician, from June, 2015 to June, 2016, all the lesions were biopsied, endoscopic treatment or postoperative pathology and pathological examination, and the Sano classification control. All lesions were divided into three groups according to the NBI combined with magnifying endoscopy, these three sets included both lesions requiring endoscopic treatment (e.g. target lesions) and lesions that were not, or could not be, treated by endoscopy (e.g. nontarget lesions). Each physician examined the target or non-target lesion reached 15 cases as a group. By assessing the diagnostic accuracy of the four physicians for each group of lesions, an associated learning curve of NBI combined with magnifying endoscopy was developed. Result In 289 patients, 372 lesions were found by colonoscopy. NBI combined with magnifying endoscopy was 95.1%, 98.0% and 92.0%, respectively, in the identification of tumor and non-neoplastic lesions. The accuracy of the diagnosis of target and non-target lesions was significantly higher in group 2 than in group 1 [81.7% vs 95.1% (P = 0.010) and 71.7% vs 93.4% (P = 0.000)]. There was no significant difference in the diagnostic accuracy between group 2 and group 3 (P = 0.984 and P = 0.117). Conclusion It is very useful to use narrow-band imaging and Sano CP analysis in the differential diagnosis of colorectal lesions. The endoscopists who had never used NBI or no knowledge of NBI can have effective and stable diagnostic accuracy after using NBI with magnification to diagnose 15 target and non-target lesions respectively.

Hereditary hemochromatosis is a rare autosomal genetic disorder that can cause multi-organ dysfunction in the liver,pancreas,spleen,heart and pituitary gland,with diverse clinical manifestations,make the diagnosis difficult.In recent years,with the deepening of clinical understanding and the development of genetic diagnosis tools,the diagnostic rate of this disease has increased significantly.In this paper,we report a case of hereditary hemochromatosis type 3 involving multiple organs and complicated by severe heart failure,aiming to improve the clinicians'understanding of this disease and reduce the leakage and misdiagnosis.

OBJECTIVETo explore the role of extrahepatic control on blood flow of hepatic vein and inferior vena cava in hepatectomy, and observe its effect on minimizing hemorrhage.

METHODSFrom 2001 to April 2003, 33 patients who had liver tumors involving segment IV, VII, VIII or half liver underwent major hepatectomies that required exposure of the inferior vena cava and main trunks of hepatic veins, during which the major hepatic veins and inferior vena cava were isolated and taped to control blood flow when necessary.

RESULTSIn 33 attempts, 32 were successful and all tumors were resected successfully. The placement of occlusion tape was unsuccessful in 1 case. 7 cases did not need blood transfusion during operation. The amount of blood transfusion for other cases were form 0 to 1 600 ml. there was no operative mortality.

CONCLUSIONSAppropriate control of main truck of hepatic vein and inferior vena cava is effective in reducing blood loss during hepatectomies. It is also very helpful for performing difficult hepatectomies.

Objective:To make the early clinical antibiotic regimen by finding out the infection of corynebacterium in the pus of patients with granulomatous mastitis in the early stage.Methods:A total of 42 patients who were diagnosed and treated in the Breast Center of Guangdong Maternal and Child Health Hospital from Jun. 2016 to Mar. 2017 with complete follow-up data were retrospectively analyzed. PCR method was used to detect corynebacterium in the patients’ pus. Patients in the positive group were treated with antibiotics alone, antibiotics + hormones and hormones alone, while patients in the negative group were treated with antibiotics + hormones and hormones alone. The postoperative recurrence rate and cure rate of different groups of patients were observed.Results:The antibiotic regimen for granulomatous mastitis in patients with corynebacterium infection included a combination of short-acting levofloxacin and azithromycin and long-acting anti-mycobacterium drugs. Among the 42 patients in the subgroup, 21 patients were confirmed positive for corynebacterium by PCR detection of pus, and the postoperative recurrence rate was 23.5%. There was a statistically significant difference between the antibiotic group, the antibiotic + hormone group and the hormone group in treatment of granulomatous mastitis infected with corynebacterium ( χ2=5.494, P=0.036) . PCR detection shouwed corynebacterium negative in 21 cases, and postoperative recurrence rate of 16.7%. No statistically significant difference in efficacy was found between antibiotic + hormone group and hormone only group for GM patients without bacterial infection ( χ2=1.129, P=0.719) . Conclusion:Early detection of corynebacterium infection in GM patients is significant for clinical guidance of the application of lipophilic antibiotics.
