Objective To investigate the safety and feasibility of the interventional therapy on hemobilia induced by hepatic artery pseudoaneurysm(PsAn).Methods The clinical data of 28 patients with hemobilia in our department was analyzed retrospectively.All the patients were firstly treated with internal medicine,and then treated by interventional therapy.The angiography clearly displayed the shape,size and location of the PsAn,and superselective embolism was performed during the operation.The symptomatic treatment and the bile duct drainage were performed after operation.Postoperative follow-up time was 1-3 6 months,and the follow-up endpoint was the death of patient.Results 28 patients were diagnosed as hepatic artery PsAn.The interventional embolization therapy on hemobilia was completely effective.A total of 110 spring coils were applicated in the study,there was no complication related to interventional therapy.One patient with hilar cholangiocarcinoma was dead due to infection and liver failure after four weeks of operation.Two patients with choledochal carcinoma died of tumor progression after 11.5 and 14.2 months of interventional therapy,respectively.In addition,2 patients with gastric carcinoma died of tumor progression after 4 and 6.5 months of operation,respectively,and 1 patient with common bile duct stones who underwent laparoscopic surgery died of complications of coronary heart disease after 5 months of interventional therapy. The other patients all had satisfactory therapeutic effect and recovered well.Conclusion The interventional therapy has definite therapeutic effect on hemobilia induced by hepatic artery PsAn.The technique is worthy of popularized clinically due to its features of simplicity,safety and reliablity.

Objective:
To explore the therapeutic value of interventional methods for hemorrhage caused by mandibular arteriovenous malformations.
Methods:
The clinical data of 7 patients (3 males and 4 females) with mandibular arteriovenous malformations treated by interventional therapy from January 2012 to January 2018 in the First Affiliated Hospital, Zhengzhou University were retrospectively analyzed. Of all patients, 4 patients suffered from sudden massive hemorrhage and 3 patients suffered from spontaneous repeated bleeding. The age ranged from 8.0 to 13.0 (10.6±1.7) years. Of the 7 patients, 3 underwent interventional embolization via arteries and veins, and 4 underwent embolization only via arteries. The embolic materials were polyvinyl alcohol granules and coils. The follow-up period was 9—18 months and the curative effect was observed.
Results:
Among the 7 patients, 4 cases of acute massive hemorrhage were effectively controlled after interventional operation, 3 cases of chronic bleeding disappeared after interventional operation. No recurrence of bleeding occurred during the follow-up period, only 1 patient presented with oral infection and gingival swelling and hyperplasia. The symptoms were effectively controlled after anti-infection and debridement. No severe complications occurred in all patients.
Conclusion
Interventional therapy for ateriovenous malformation with hemorrhage is effective, safe and feasible, which is worthy of clinical application.

Objective To observe the clinical effect of "palace bone-setting" Dieda-Wanying cream combined with Yuan Shu Zhi Pai Zi fixation in the treatment of acute ankle sprain.Methods A total of 60 patients with acute ankle sprain were collected and randomly divided into observation group and control group according to the random number table method,with 30 cases in each group.The observation group was treated with "Palace Bone-setting" Dieda-Wanying cream combined with Yuan Shu Zhi Pai Zi for fixation.The control group was treated with external application of diclofenac diethylamine emulsion and fixation of elastic bandage.Two groups were treated for 14 days.The patients pain disappeared time and the swelling subsided,the VAS scale for assessment of ankle pain observed.The American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) Ankle-after scoring system was used to assess the Ankle function,evaluation of clinical curative effect.Results The pain disappear time (9.7 ± 1.6 d vs.13.4 ± 3.5 d,t=5.638),regression and time (3.5 ± 1.3 d vs.6.7 ± 1.1 d,t=10.292) in the observation group were significantly earlier than those in the control group (P<0.01).After treatment,VAS score (1.9 ± 1.1 vs.3.3 ± 1.3,t=4.503) of the observation group significantly lower than that of the control group (P<0.01);AOFAS score (93.6 ± 3.9 vs.84.2 ± 5.1,t=8.019) significantly higher than the control group (P<0.01).Total effective rate in the observation group was 96.7% (29/30),and the control group was 80.0% (24/30),which the difference was statistically significant (x2=4.043,P=0.044).Conclusions The "Palace Bone-setting" Dieda-Wanying cream combined with Yuan Shu Zhi Pai Zi fixation has definite curative effect on acute ankle sprain,relieve pain,swelling and promote the ankle function.

With the development of detection methods, various biomarkers of liver cancer have been detected constantly, which is of great significance for the early diagnosis and real-time monitoring of liver cancer after treatment. Based on the differences in the sensitivity and specificity of different biomarkers, exploration of the value of diverse biomarkers in the diagnosis and prognosis assessment of liver cancer can provide an important reference for clinicians to scientific and rational application of distinct biomarkers.
