1.The characteristics of CT images of encephalocele
Journal of Practical Medicine 2003;450(4):22-24
At Bach Mai Hospital, CT of 230 cases of showed the images of encephalocele. In the trauma group, the unilateral damage of hemisphere cerebral was mainly in fronto-temporal lobe, and chronic damage. In the cases of bleeding due to cerebrovascular complications, the occuping volume of blood glott or the cerebral edema volume increased leading to severe encephalocele and ebullient symptoms. Tumor occuping largely leads to difficult immobilging, there fore the image could not be restored and surgical intervention becomes more difficult. Metastasis tumors cause a lorge edema in the brain, encephalocele becomes acute possibly leading to death

30 eyes of 28 patients (18 female, 10 male, aged 45-75) of primary glaucoma (25 eyes with closed angle glaucoma and 5 eyes with opened angle glaucoma) at the National Institute of Ophtalmology were operated. No complications occurred. In postoperative period, there were 4 eyes with low interocular pressure and very shallow vestibule. In discharge, 46.6% eyes got a visual acuity of 4/10 to >6/10, and 13.3% <1/10, interocular pressure was regulated with X=18.20.8 mmHg. All operated eyes had scars. After 1 year, acuity visual had been re-examined on 28 eyes, no change of visual acuity, vision field and scars. Interoculary pressure was normal level of X=19.61.2 mmHg

Background: Hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) is the most common primary hepatic tumor and one of the most common cancers worldwide. HCC is a primary malignancy of hepatocellular origin. Objectives:The aim of study is to combinate therapy of transarterial chemoembolization and percutaneousethanol injection afterward emerging metatasis caused by fine needle aspiration cytology. Subjects and method: A 50 years old male patient with hepatocellular carcinoma having a diameter of tumor more than 5 cm was treated by combination of transarterial chemoembolization and percutaneous ethanol injection from December 2000. Results & Conclusion: Results of study showed that: Transarterial chemoembolization and percutaneous ethanol injection are the two of non-surgical methods for treatment of hepatocellular carcinoma which are most commonly available in applied clinical activities at present. Up to now, the patient's life expectancy after therapy is more than 6 years that means the result of treatment is very good. However, the emerging metatasis into the anterior-right-Iower chest wall that was caused by fine needle aspiration cytology should be reviewed for further evaluating clinical experience, especially in cases with quite clear imaging features of untrasonography and significantly elevated AFP level higher than 200 ng/rnl.
