MI is often associated with cardiac arrhythmias,and ventricular arrhythmia is the most common.MRI is a powerful tool for the assessment of myocardial viability,DE-MRI detection of myocardial scar is the gold standard for diagnosis myocardial infarction,Now we summarized the detection of myocardial infarction scar by DE-MRI and the relationship between myocardial infarction scar and ventricular arrhythmia.

ObjectiveTo identify the pathogens causing complicated skin and soft tissue infection and their susceptibility to antibiotics.MethodsThe clinical data on and aetiological examination findings in 99 cases of complicated skin and soft tissue infection were retrospectively analyzed.ResultsTotally,99 bacterial strains were isolated,including 51 Gram-positive bacteria(29 community-associated,22 hospital-acquired)and 48 Gram-negative bacteria ( 13 community-associated,35 hospital-acquired).Of the Gram-positive bacteria,staphylococci were the most common bacteria,which showed a high resistance rate to erythromycin (95.45％),penicillin G(72.73％),clindamycin,oxacillin and levofloxacin,but a high sensitivity to teicoplanin,vancomycin,linezolid,fusidic acid and moxifloxacin.Besides,the community-associated staphylococci possessed a higher sensitivity to trimethoprim + sulfamethoxazole,tetracycline and ciprofloxacin than the hospital-acquired staphylococci did(all P ＜ 0.05).Notably,11 of the 99 isolates were identified as methicillin-resistant staphylococcus aureus(MRSA).The four predominant Gram-negative bacteria were Pseudomonas aeruginosa,Klebsiella pneumonia,Escherichia coliand Acinetobacter baumannii.These Gram-negative bacteria,especially the hospital-acquired Gram-negative bacteria,exhibited high resistance to levofloxacin,trimethoprim + sulfamethox azole and gentamicin but favorable sensitivity to carbapenems,tobramycin,piperacillin and tazobactam.ConclusionsComplicated skin and soft tissue infection is caused by various species of bacteria with high resistance to common antibiotics.Therefore,the results of drug sensitive tests should serve as the basis for proper use of antibiotics in the treatment of complicated skin and soft tissue infection.

OBJECTIVE: To repair the postoperative tissue detect of the base of tongue cancer in advanced patients. METHOD: There were 30 patients of medium-high differentiation squamous cell carcinoma(SCC) included in this study. According to the TNM staging of AJCC 2002, there were 4 cases of T2N1M0, 7 of T3N1M0, 10 of T3N2M0, 4 of T4N1M0 and 5 of T4N2M0. Surgical approach of the primary lesion: 12 with transhyoidpharyngotomy approach and 18 with mandibulotomy approach. All cases accepted radiotherapy 4-6 weeks after surgery. RESULT: Twenty-five cases were reconstructed with pedicle pectoralis major myocutaneous flaps, and all them survived. Among them, 1 flap was partial split with surrounding tissue spontaneously, and another flap had partial tissue necrosis, however, both flaps grew well with dressing and other local treatment. Other 5 cases were reconstructed with free anterolateral myocutaneous flaps. Among them, 1 flap had partial tissue necrosis, but had a secondary healing after removing necrotic tissue via mouth approach. All 18 patients of larynx-preservation had tracheal tube pulled out. The 3-year survival rate was 68% and the local control rate was 87%. CONCLUSION Pedicle pectoralis major myocutaneous flaps and free anterolateral myocutaneous flaps were alternative donor area for repairing postoperative tissue defect of the base of tongue; The former was preferred, and the latter was concealed so as to be a kind of effective method, which need adept technique of microsurgery.

Objective: To assess the safety and curative effect of gasless endoscopic selective lateral neck dissection (GESLND) via an anterior chest approach for papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC). Methods: Eighteen patients with PTC(T1-2N1bM0, size<3.0 cm), having GESLND via an anterior chest approach, were included from November 2008 to December 2016. Results: GESLND via an anterior chest approach was successfully performed in all 18 PTC patients (seven male and eleven female) with 83.3% of T1 and 16.7% of T2. The mean operative time of selective lateral neck dissection was 73 min (range 51-92 min). The mean of intraoperative bleeding was 61.1 ml (range 30-120 ml). No major complications occurred except one transient hypoparathyroidism. No residual thyroid glands were detected on ultrasonography and thyroglobulin was(0.73±0.16)ng/ml three months postoperatively. The median of follow-up was 54.5 months (range 6-104 months). No recurrence disease was observed in any patient on ultrasonography, computer tomography, thyroglobulin or selective iodine-131 scan during the follow-up period. The cosmetic result and functional preservation was excellent, when the assessments were performed three months postoperatively. Conclusion GESLND via an anterior chest approach is feasible and safe for selected PTCs, with superior appearance.
