Objective To evaluate the surgical treatment of splitting right hepatic duct with hepatolithiasis and stenosis. Methods The clinical data of 38 patients with splitting right hepatic duct and hepatolithiasis treated by operation were analyzed retrospectively. Results All the patients underwent operation. operative procedures were as follows: (1) in situ cholangioplasty of splitting right hepatic duct in 7 cases;(2) fenestration of splitting right hepatic with adjacent hepatic duct in 9 cases; (3) bilioplasty of splitting right hepatic duct with adjacent bile duct in 8 cases; (4) hepatic lobectomy or segmentectomy of splitting right hepatic duct in 14 cases. Postoperative complications developed in 6 cases, which were cured conservatively. There was no perioperative mortality. All patients were followed up for 5～16 years(averaged 9.2 years). Excellent rate was 78.9%,and residual stones were found in 26.3% of the patients . Conclusions Accurate localization and appropriate operation may get satisfactory result in treating patients with splitting right hepatic duct with hepatolithiasis and stenosis.

Objective To investigate the diagnosis,treatment and prognosis of ankle fractures combined with rupture of lateral collateral ligaments.Methods A continuous series of 5 cases of ankle fracture combined with lateral collateral ligament injury were reviewed who had been treated by the authors from January 2014 through December 2014.They were one man and 4 women,33 to 47 years of age (average,39 years).All the patients were suspected of lateral clear space of the ankle in preoperative X-ray examination,and MRI indicated rupture of lateral collateral ligament in 3 of them.Lateral collateral ligament injury was confirmed in all of them by direct intro-operative findings.After anatomical reduction and osteosynthesis of lateral and medial malleoli,the ankle joints were checked under the varus stress and drawer test.After the ruptured lateral collateral ligaments were explored directly,they were repaired with suture anchor in 4 cases and with drilling holes in the lateral malleolus in one.The ankles were immobilized for 3 weeks postoperatively.The outcomes were evaluated by Philips and Schwartz clinical scoring system and American Orthopaedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) Ankle-Hindfoot Scale.Results All the 5 patients were followed up for an average of 9.6 months (range,from 8 to 12 months).All the fractures healed without pain.No instability was complained of.The mean degree of plantar flexion was 50.0°,with 2° (from 0° to 10°) less than the normal side;the mean degree of dorsiflexion was 17°,with 6° (from 0° to 20°) less than the normal side.The mean Philips & Schwartz score was 93.4 points (from 80 to 100 points).The mean AOFAS score was 95.2 points (from 88 to 100 points).Conclusions The ankle fractures in which the lateral malleolus is involved can be combined with lateral collateral ligament injury.X-ray stress view and MRI are useful in early diagnosis.It is highly recommended to repair the injured lateral collateral ligament simultaneously with reduction and osteosynthesis of lateral and medial malleoli.

Photodynamic therapy (PDT), because of its good targeting, minimal invasion, and safety, is becoming a very active area in cancer prevention and treatment, in which the photosensitizers have proved to be the core element for PDT. We developed a new HPLC method for analyzing porphyrin photosensitizers using Shiseido Capcell PAK C18 (150 mm x 4.6 mm, 5 µm) as the column at 30 °C, methanol-1% aqueous solution of acetic acid as the mobile phase in a flow rate of 1.0 mL · min(-1) in a gradient elution mode, and the detection wavelength at 380 nm. This method, showing good specificity, precision, accuracy and robusty via methodology validations, can be applied to the purity test and assay of porphyrin photosensitizers, and has played a key guide role in the R&D of the new porphyrin photosensitizer--sinoporphyrin sodium.

Objective To investigate the effects of drainage tube placement after fracture internal fixation.Methods A prospective cohort study was conducted of the 235 patients who were to undergo open reduction and internal fixation for tibia fracture,distal radial fracture or ankle joint fracture at Department of Orthopaedic Trauma,Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from March to August,2016.Of them,123 were assigned into an experimental group who were subjected to adequate hemostasis after releasing the tourniquet without drainage following surgery while 112 into a control group who were subjected to conventional hemostasis without relaxing the tourniquet and placement of drainage tubes.The 2 groups were compared in terms of postoperative hospital stay,wound condition,body temperature 3 days postoperatively,counts of hemoglobins,white blood cells and neutrophils,and postoperative visual analogue scale (VAS).Results High fever was not observed in all the patients postoperatively.There were no significant differences between the 2 groups in postoperative hospital stay[(3.3 ± 1.6) d versus (3.7 ± 1.7) d],wound reddening,wound swelling,hemoglobins,white blood cells,neutrophils,or VAS scores postoperatively (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion Drainage tube placement is not routinely necessary after internal fixation of simple fractures if surgical invasion is limited and hemostasis is adequate after intraoperative release of the tourniquet.

OBJECTIVE:To compare the effects of dezocine and nalbuphine on patient-controlled intravenous analgesia(PCIA) in patients undergoing cesarean section. METHODS:A total of 97 patients undergoing selective cesarean section were selected from our hospital during Jun. 2015 to Mar. 2017. They were divided into dezocine group(52 cases)and nalbuphine group(45 cases) according to lottery. Both groups received cesarean section under combined spinal-epidural anesthesia,and then given PCIA pump immediately after surgery. The pump of dezocine group was Dezocine injection 0.5 mg/kg+Tropisetron hydrochloride injection 10 mg;that of nalbuphine group was Nalbuphine hydrochloride injection 2 mg/kg+Tropisetron hydrochloride injection 10 mg. Both groups of analgesic drugs were diluted 100 mL with 0.9% sodium chloride injection,constant infusion of liquid medicine at rate of 2 mL/h,adding 0.5 mL additionally each time,for consecutive 48 h. VAS score and Ramsay sedation score of resting pain, dynamic pain and uterine contraction pain were performed in 2 groups 4,8,12,24,48 h after surgery. The serum levels of PRL were determined 30 min before surgery and 24,48 h after surgery. The initial time of lactation and ADR were recorded in 2 groups. RESULTS:VAS score of resting pain and uterine contraction pain at 4,8,12 h after operation and that of dynamic pain at 4,8,12, 24 h after operation were significantly lower in dezocine group than nalbuphine group,with statistical significance (P＜0.05). There was no statistical significance in VAS score between 2 groups at other time points(P＞0.05). As time went on,the VAS scores of the two groups decreased significantly at each time point,and the difference was statistically significant(P＜0.05). The serum levels of PRL in 2 groups 24 and 48 h after operation were significantly higher than 30 min before operation,with statistical significance(P＜0.05). There was no statistical significance in serum level of PRL between 2 groups at same time point(P＞0.05). There was no statistical significance in Ramsay score, initial time of lactation or the incidence of ADR between dezocine group and nalbuphine group (P＞0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Both dezocine and nalbuphine are effective analgesia drugs of PCIA in patients undergoing cesarean section. Early postoperative analgesic effect of dezocine is superior to nalbuphine. They have similar effects on long-term analgesia and postoperative sedative,serum level of PRL,initial time of lactation,as well as safety.
