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 study the feasibility and efficacy of laparoscopic operation for choledochal cyst. Methods Under laparoscopy,intraoperative cholangiography was performed.The dilated commom bile duct and the gallbladder were excised,a Roux-en-Y cholangio-jejunostomy was constructed outside the abdominal cavity. 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 To study the characteristics of ocular trauma inside of the tank after being bit by the antitank bombs to provide experimental evidences for defense- and-treatment of ocular trauma. Methods A total of 48 health sheep were divided into 3 groups and put into a tank separately. The three different caliber antitank bombs were used to shot the tank forearmor: large high-energy bomb for Group I, intermediate armor-piercing explosive fire bomb for Group Ⅱ, small armor-piercing fire bomb for Group Ⅲ. After the hit, the harmful gases, temperature, blast overpressure within the cabin and the injury situations of eyes were checked. Results After fire, harmful gases and blast overpressure were increased, but the temperature was not obviously changed. Each bomb explosion caused obvious reaction in blood vessel of uvea and retina, edema and degeneration as well as the changes of ultrastructure in retina. Conclusion The ocular trauma inside of the tank are complex and serious and related to the weapon calibre, class, and wounding effect. Closed ocular trauma has the characteristics of slight wound outside and serious wound inside as well as obvious reaction in blood vessels of uvea and retina.

Objective: To observe the effects of propofol on lipid peroxides(LPO)and superoxide diomutase(SOD) during open heart surgery. Method: Twenty patients undergoing cardiac valve replacement, were diviced into two groups: propofol group and etomidate group. The serum samples were taken to measure LPO and SOD lerels before and after ischemic reperfusion,and recorded ECG and MAP. Result: The serum LPO level decreased sign ficantly during aortic cannulation,and increased after aortic cross-release in propofol group(P

Objective　To study the effect of acute serious smoke inhalation injury to unilateral lung on contralateral lung and the therapeutic efficacy of massive bronchoscopic lavage with saline to the primary injured bronchoalveolus at early stage after smoke inhalation on mitigating the secondary damage of the other lung and so as to confirm the therapeutic validity of lung lavage to smoke inhalation injury. Methods　Fifteen mongrel dogs were insufflated with sawdust smoke into left lung and then randomized into 2 groups. The dogs in group A were maintained intravenous glucose saline transfusion and breathed air freely for 24 h after injury. Those in group B received a massive bronchoscopic lavage with 250 ml of saline to injured lung at 1 hour after injury and then were administrated similarly to those in group A. Gas exchange function of bilateral lungs in the process were observed and pathologic and phyiopathologic changes of the lung specimen were examined after the process. Results　While the total lavaging volume was kept to 250 ml, the liquid volume remained in left lung after each operating was from 90 ml to 140 ml. All animals had a significant decline in pulmonary function after smoke inhalation injury. PaO2 in group B decreased significantly soon after the lavage and then increased gradually to exceeding that in group A. The left lung showed serious edema similarly in two groups but in right lung the water content was less, dynamic and static compliance was more in group B than in group A. Conclusion　Bronchoalveolar massive lavage at early post-injury stage to injured lung after unilateral lung smoke inhalation injury can mitigate secondary damage of the non-injured lung. Lung lavage can decrease the intensity of secondary systemic inflammatory reaction and show a therapeutic validity to smoke inhalation injury.

Objective　To review the experience in the management of burned patients inflicted by inhalation injury in our institute in the past 42 years. Methods　Patients with inhalation injury were analyzed chronically in three different periods as 1958 to 1980, 1981 to 1990, and 1991 to 2000. Results　The mortality rates in general and in terms of different degrees decreased obviously with the elapse of time. In other words, the rates were 48.93%, 26.60% and 8.53 for the above three periods. Conclusion　The mortality of inhalation injury was decreased dramatically during the last decade in our institute. Five main measures consisting of inhalation of high concentration or pure oxygen, preventive tracheotomy, frequent tracheal lavage with small amount of lavage fluid at early stage of postburn, mechanical ventilation with PEEP and humidification as early as possible, and application of exogenous pulmonary surfactant contribute greatly to the decrement of death rate in the patients with inhalation injury.

Objective: According to heparanase’s gene sequence of gene bank, to construct heparanase gene-targeted small interfering RNA (siRNA)and its expression vector and to observe its interfering effect on the expression of heparanase gene in human malignant breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells. Methods: Heparanase gene-targeted hairpin siRNA was designed, two complementary oligonucleotide strand was synthesized and inserted into pGPU6/GFP/Neo vector,which was identified by sequence identify. Human malignant breast cancer MDA-MB-231 cells were transfected with the constructed vector with lipofectamine method. Western blot was per-formed to evaluate the expression of heparanase protein. Results: Four kinds of heparanase gene-targeted hairpin siRNA were designed, and were inserted into pGPU6/GFP/Neo vector after annealing. The vector containing siRNA was proved to be right by sequencing. The result of Western blot indicated that the expression of heparanase could be degraded by siRNA. Conclusion: The expression of heparanase can be degraded by siRNA method, and HPSE-A and HPSE-B showed the best results.

Objective To investigate the status of Cryptosporidium infection in the population in the local area of Anhui Prov?ince,and discuss the risk factors of the infection,so as to provide the evidence for the prevention and treatment of cryptosporidi?osis. Methods Qianshan County and Lingbi County of Anhui Province were selected as investigation spots,and the oocysts of Cryptosporidium in the feces of the investigation objects and the specific IgG antibody against Cryptosporidium in the serum were checked by using the pathogenic modified acid fast staining method and ELISA,respectively,so as to determine the status of Cryptosporidium infection in these investigation objects. At the same time,the questionnaire surveys were conducted in the inves?tigation objects so as to know about the risk factors of Cryptosporidium infection. Results A total of 668 people were investigat?ed in the two counties,635 people received etiological examinations,and 15 people were positive with the positive rate of 2.36%;642 people received serological examinations,and 140 people were positive with the positive rate of 21.81%;628 peo?ple received pathogenic and serological examinations at the same time,and the examination results of the both methods showed that 12 people were positive(there were 4 people in Qianshan County and 8 people in Lingbi County),and the positive rate was 1.94%. The rates of Cryptosporidium infection in the population of Qianshan County and Lingbi County were 1.24%(4/322)and 2.71%(8/295)respectively,and the difference had no statistical significance(P>0.05). The single factor analysis found that the rate of Cryptosporidium infection was higher in the children and diarrhea patients;the multivariate logistics regression analy?sis indicated that the rate of Cryptosporidium infection was higher in the people who bred poultry and the diarrhea patients. Con?clusions The positive rate of serum antibody of Cryptosporidium in the population of the local area of Anhui Province is higher, which indicates that the previous infection is serious,and the rate of Cryptosporidium infection in human is relative to the age, diarrhea and whether there are poultries to be bred in the family,which is worthy of attention in the future prevention and treat?ment.
