Objective To evaluate vagina reconstruction with the use of sigmoid colon. Methods 21 cases underwent vagina reconstruction with the use of sigmoid colon were reviewed of which 13 were male pseudohermaphrodism and 8 congenital devoid of vagina. Results The appearence of the reconstructed vagina has been good in all the 21 patients.15 of the 21 have been followed up for 3～24 months with no overproduction of mucus and no need of routine dilatation. Conclusions Vagina reconstruction with the use of an isolated sigmoid loop is an ideal procedure for juveniles and adults.

Objective: To study the anti-inflammatory, analgesic and immunosuppressive action of Niuhuang Qianjin San (NQS). M ethods: The anti-inflammatory action of NQS was studied by the methods of rat pa w swelling and mouse ear swelling and the analgesic action by mouse body torsion method and K+ subcutaneous penetration method in rats.Immunosuppressive effec t was evaluated by peripheral T lymphocyte percentage, splenic lymphocyte transfor mation ratio, phagocytic function of intraperitoneal magocytes, the activity of delayed hypersensitivity, serum hemolysin level and the function of antibody-yie lding cells in mice. Results: NQS could obviously alleviate inflammation, increa se codeine's analgesic action and suppress immunity. The difference were signif icant (P<0.01) as compared with normal saline contr ol group.Conclusion:NQS exerts certain anti-inflammatory,analagisic and immunosu ppressive action.

Purpose To construct a recombined antitumor peptide and to analyze its bioactivity. Methods Constructing a recombined gene and inserting the pGEX-4T-3 vector. The recombined protein was expressed in E. coli BL21 and purified with Amylose Resin. Then, citrostatin was subjected to the following tests separately: inhibition of endothelial cell proliferation, MTT test of cytotoxicity and inhibition of endothelial cell tube formation on ECMatrix. Results Citrostatin significantly inhibited the proliferation of human endothelial cell ECV304(IC_(50) = 2.28 μmol/L) .It also significantly inhibited the proliferation of human tumor cell 1990 and NCI-H64O(IC_(50) = 9.24,2.74 μmol/L) ,and the inhibitory effect became more marked with the increase of citrostatin concentration. The inhibitory effects of citrostatin on endothelial cell tube formation was also confirmed . Conclusion An antitumor peptide, citrostatin, has been successfully constructed and purified, which showed anti-angiogenesis effect and direct cytotoxic effect on tumor cells.

Objective To analyze CT features of retroperitoneal tumors or tumor-like lesion and to evaluate CT in localizating and qualitative diagnosis of diseases.Methods CT findings in 45 cases with pathologically-proved retroperitoneal tumor were retrospectively analyzed and compared with pathological results.Results There were 25 cases of benign tumors and 20 cases of malignant tumors.The CT features of benign tumors were homogeneous density,smooth peripheria with clear border,while mixed density,large and irregular in malignant tumors.The accuracy of localizating lesions was 89%,the accuracy of qualitative diagnosis was 78%,the accuracy of histologic evaluation was 49%.Conclusion CT imaging is valuable in diagnosing retroperitoneal tumors.CT can make accurate localization of tumors and identify the nature of tumors,but is limited in evaluating histologic types.

Objective To study the CT findings of dermoid cyst of the orbit.Methods Four cases of dermoid cyst of the orbit proved by operation and pathology were presented. There were three cases of male, one case of female, age 6～21 years. Transverse CT scans(3 mm slice) and coronal CT scans(5 mm slice) were obtained, in which enhancement study was done in two cases.Results Among four cases, lesion was located in the right on three cases, in the left on one case. All lesions were located outside the muscle of upper-lateral guarter. One lesion was showed a multi-lobular shape, with widening of the frontozygomatic fissure and protruding to outside of the orbit. Three lesions were found anoval shape, in which one lesion was showed a bony sclerosis and thickening, another two cases were showed no bony change. On all cases, the edge of the lesions were demonstrated clearly, in which three cases were low-density(-140～-80 HU) similar to fat density, and one case with heterogeneous density. The lesion was showed more clearly on enhancement study on two cases.Conclusion CT findings of dermoid cyst of the orbit is characteristic and the diagnosis can be made before operation.

Objective To investigate the diagnostic value of high frequency color Doppler ultrasound combined with gastrointestinal filling in infants with duodenal obstruction . Methods One hundred infants who were suspected with duodenal obstruction underwent both gastrointestinal ultrasound and upper gastrointestinal tract ,put the surgical results as the ?gold standard ,the values of ultrasonic and upper gastrointestinal tract in the diagnosis of pediatric congenital duodenal obstruction were compared . Results The diagnostic accuracy of ultrasound and upper gastrointestinal tract in duodenal obstruction was 100%and 94% respectively ,the difference was statistically significant ( P = 0 .041) . The accuracy rate of obstruction location was 98 .04% and 84 .31% respectively , also was considered to denote statistical significance ( P = 0 .023 ) . The total diagnostic accuracy of congenital disorders caused by duodenal obstruction was 89% and 49% respectively ,and P = 0 .001 implies statistically significant difference . Conclusions There is a high diagnostic accuracy in high frequency ultrasound combined with gastrointestinal filling in children with congenital duodenal obstruction ,and the diagnosis of some diseases is better than that of the upper gastroenterography .

OBJECTIVE To study the risk factors and clinical characteristics of nosocomial infection in senile patients with acute myelogenous leukemia who received chemotherapy.METHODS Ninety-one cases of senile patients with acute myelogenous leukemia received 304 times of chemotherapy with etiological examination,to analyze the relationship between nosocomial infection and absolute neutrophil count in peripheral blood,the cellularity of the marrow and chronic systemic disorder.RESULTS All indicators of senile patients with acute myelogenous leukemia were higher than those of younger patients(P0.05).CONCLUSIONS Age,different stage of chemotherapy,the neutrocytopenia level and prolongation,and hypocellularity of bone marrow are related to the nosocomial infection in senile patients with acute myelogenous leukemia,and the chronic systemic disorder is not a risk factor.

Objective To explore the clinical value of real-time shear wave elastography (SWE) in liver tissue stiffness of normal children.Methods Totally 243 normal children were examined by SWE.The data of liver stiffness measurement (LSM) were recorded and analyzed.The differences of LSM between different genders and hepatic segments were compared.According to the age,243 normal children were divided into pre-school group,school age group and adolescent group;and the differences of LSM between 3 groups were compared.The consistency was analyzed in different operators.Results The mean value of LSM in normal children was (4.21±0.70)kPa,and the 95％ confidence interval was (4.11,4.31)kPa.The success rate of segment S5 was higher than that of segment S4 (100％ [243/ 243] vs 79.83％ [194/243]),and the mean value of LSM in segment S5 was lower than that in segment S4 (P＜0.05).The mean value of LSM increased with age,and the boys' was a slightly higher than the girls',but there were no statistical differences between them (all P＞ 0.05).LSM had good consistency in different operators,the intraclass correlation coefficient was 0.92.Conclusion SWE could be an objective and quantitative assessment in liver stiffness of children.

Objective To explore the MRI features of soft tissue hemangiomas. Methods The size, margin, morphology and signal pattern of the lesions in MRI findings in 18 patients with soft tissue hemangiomas proved pathologically were retrospectively analyzed. Results Of the 18 cases, there were 8 cases of angiocavernoma (1 0-4 0 cm in size) with clear border, homogeneous high signal in the lesion and low signal ring on the border, 5 cases of intramuscular hemangioma, presented as irregular mass with mixed signals mainly composed of high signal on T2WI, 3 cases of angioma arteriale racemosu with tortuous dilation of blood vessel and amyotrophy as its MRI feature, and 2 cases of venous angioma with thick wall of vein but without supplying arteries. Conclusion Soft tissue hemangioma can usually be diagnosed correctly according to MRI characteristics and clinical data.
