Objective To study the results of an improved method of laparoscopic treatment of inguinal hernia in children. Methods Between January 1999and October 2003,94 inguinal hernias in 86 children between 2～14 years of age were treated by laparoscopic surgery using a single trocar hole. 54 children showed a right inguinal hernia, 32 a left hernia,and 8 cases presented bilateral hernias. Of the unitaleral hernias, 10 were occult hernias. All the patients were treated by purse-string suture around the internal ring under direct vision with laparoscopy. Results Operative time was from 10-30(average 16) minutes. There were no intra-or post-operative complications. All were followed up for 4-60 months, with no recurrences . Conclusions This method of laparoscopic hernia repair is less traumatic, postoperative recovery is fast and stitch removal is not necessary. It can also be used for the treatment of occult and bilateral inguinal hernias.

Objective To study the advantages and summerize the practice of laparoscopic appendectomy (LA) for elderly patients. Methods Forty one elderly patients with appendicitis aged from 60 to 76 were treated with LA. The operative procedure, surgical indications, recovery, postoperative pain, and complications, as well as the period and the cost for hospitalizing were studied. Results All 41 patients were comfirmed appendicitis through LA. Thirty nine patients undergone LA were operated smoothly. Only two patients were cured with exploratory laparotomy. The preoperative diagnosis was confirmed in 6 patients and the complication of other diseases were found in 5 cases by LA. Two cases were operated by abdominal incision during LA. Postoperative complications, such as infection of the incision and pain were less occurred. The concurred diseases with appendicitis need simple treating. The hospitalizing period was 4 days on the average and the cost was 20%～30% higher than other procedures. Conclusions Most of elderly patients can be early diagnosed and timely treated by LA. LA could be a more popular choice for the elderly patients with appendicitis since its advantages of safe and minimal invasion. It has been an outstandihg method in treating appendicitis compared to other traditional methods.

Objective To investigate the ultrastructural changes of retinal pigment epithelium (RPE) and its permeability in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and explore the relation between these changes and hypertensive retinopathy. Methods The ultrastructure of RPE cells in the SHR aged five、six、seven months was observed with transmission electronmicroscope and compared to its normotensive control strain(WKY) with the same age.Then, lanthanum tracer procedures were carried out to investigate pathological changes of the blood retinal barrier. Results ①In SHR the main pathological changes involved swelling of mitochondria, enlargement of endoplasmic reticula,decrease of RPE cell infolding, and sparseness of microvilli. These degenerations were more serious in older rats with higher blood pressure.②The breakdown of outer blood retinal barrier with permeation of lanthanum tracers were evident in SHR aged six or seven month, however, in WKY and five month SHR the traces were preven ted from passing by tight junctions. Conclusion The degeneration of RPE owing to ischemia and anoxia arises in early period of hypertensive retinopathy. The pathological changes of ultrastructure and permeability might interact with the damage of visual cells and play a main role in the hypertensive retinopathy.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the therapeutic mechanism of tetromethylpyrazine and aminoguanidine on diabetic nephropathy. METHODS: Diabetic rats were induced by streptozotocin. They were divided into 5 groups: normal control group (group C), untreated diabetic group (group DM), tetromethylpyrazine treated group (group TMP), aminoguanidine treated group (group AG) and tetromethylpyrazine and aminoguanidine treated group (group TMP+AG). The expression of vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in renal cortex of the rats in each group was observed by immunohistochemical staining after 12 weeks. RESULTS: The expression of VEGF in renal cortex of the rats in group TMP+AG and group C was alike. The expression of VEGF in renal cortex of group TMP and group AG decreased significantly as compared with that of group C, but was still above normal level. CONCLUSION: The therapeutic mechanism of tetromethylpyrazine and aminoguanidine on diabetic nephropathy may be inhibiting the over-expression of VEGF in kidney of diabetic rats.

Objective To investigate the efficacy and toxicity of low dose of docetaxel and cisplatin (TP) combined with radiotherapy in the treatment of elderly patients with esophageal cancer.Methods The data of 65 elderly patients with esophageal cancer were studied retrospectively, including 33 patients treated by TP combined with radiotherapy (chemoradiotherapy group) and 32 patients by radiotherapy only (radiotherapy group).Patients in both groups received 3D conventional radiotherapy (3D-CRT).In chemoradiotherapy group, 40 mg/1f docetaxel and 40 mg/1f cisplatin were administered once a week on the 1st, 8th, 15th, 22th, 36th day of five successive weeks.Results In chemoradiotherapy group and radiotherapy group, the response (CR+RR) rates were 87.8 ％ (29/33) and 65.6 ％ (21/32), respectively (P ＜ 0.05), the median TTPs were 5.5 months and 4.3 months, and the difference had statistically significant (P ＜ 0.05).The 1-year survival rate was 69.6 ％ and 59.3 ％ in chemoradiotherapy group and radiotherapy group, respectively, and there was no statistically significant difference between both groups (P ＞ 0.05).The incidences of esophagitis and gastrointestinal tract were slightly higher in chemoradiotherapy group than those in radiotherapy group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Concurrent radiotherapy and chemotherapy with low dose TP can treat effectively esophageal cancer in elderly patients with the tolerable toxic reactions.
