Objective To compare the effects of rib internal fixation and thoracic external fixation in treatment of traumatic flail chest. Methods Eighty six cases of traumatic flail chest with multiple injuries,admitted to hospital from January 2006 to June 2009 ,were recruited into the study and divided into rib internal fixation and thoracic external fixation groups randomly. The clinical data were analyzed retrospectively. Rib internal fixations with Ti-Ni shape memory alloy embracing connector were performed in internal-fixation group(n = 45) and thoracic external fixations were performed in external-fixation group(n = 41). The outcomes were compared between the two groups. Results No patient in internal-fixation group developed chest wall deformity,while 19 patients in external-fixation group had chest wall deformity left. The mean times of hospital stay([ 15. 1 ± 1.8]d vs [22. 9 ±2. 8]d,t = - 15. 724,P ＜0. 01) ,ICU stay([5.7 ± 1.5]d vs [ 14. 4 ±2. 9]d,t =- 17.711, P ＜ 0. 01), and mechanical ventilation([ 3.9 ± 1.5 ] d vs [ 1 1.6 ± 2. 3 ] d, t = - 17. 256, P ＜ 0. 01),in internal-fixation group were significantly shorter than those in external-fixation group. The occurrence rate of respiratory complications (including pulmonary inflammation and (or) atelectasis and (or) respiratory failure)in internal-fixation group was significantly lower than those in external-fixation group(35.6% vs. 70. 7% ,x2 =10.641,P ＜ 0.01). Followed-up data of three months after discharge showed that the pulmonary function parameters, such as total lung capacity([ 89. 5 ± 3. 1 ] % vs. [ 79. 1 ± 5. 1 ] %, t = 11. 705, P ＜ 0. 01), forced vital capacity([ 80. 2 ± 2. 8 ] % vs. [ 69. 8 ± 3. 8 ] % ,t = 14. 241 ,P ＜0. 01) ,forced expiratory volume in the 1st second ([74.8 ±4.4]% vs. [71.9 ±3.6]% ,t =3.201,P ＜0.01),peak expiratory flow ([82.8 ±4.4]%vs. [79. 8 ±4. 9]% ,t =2. 885,P ＜0. 01) and forced expiratory flows at 75% of the vital capacity( [68.2 ±2. 2] % vs. [61.9 ± 2. 9 ]%, t = 11. 286; P ＜ 0. 01) were significantly higher in internal-fixation group than those in external-fixation group. Conclusion Rib internal fixation for traumatic flail chest can quickly correct chest wall deformity, stabilize thoracis and eliminate paradoxical chest wall movement. Patients accepted this treatment have a shorter therapy process during the intensive care unit and hospital stay, less pulmonary complications. They also show less long-term restrictive pulmonary functions impairment, when compared to the patients in the thoracic external fixation group. Rib internal fixation with Ti-Ni shape memory alloy embracing connector is a simple and effective therapy.

Objective To evaluate the effects of simvastatin on the vascular elasticitv in fat-fed rabbits by echo-tracking(ET)technique.Methods Twenty seven rabbits were divided randomly into 3 groups:normal control group(group A),high fat diet group(group B),simvastatin group(group C:high fat diet for the 1st 4 weeks and high fat diet+simvastatin for the 2nd 4 weeks).β,EP,AC,and PWVβof abdominal aorta (AO) and femoral artery(FA)of rabbits in group A、B、C were measured by ET technique at the end of 4th week and 8th week respectively.The expression of iNOS was measured at the end of 8th week.Results At the end of the 4th week,β,Ep,and PWVβ of FA were significantly inereased and AC was significantly decreased in group B compared to those in group A(P＜0.05).At the end of the 8th week,β,Ep,PWVβof AO were significantly increased and AC was significantly decreased in group B compared to those in group A(P＜0.05);β,Ep,PWVβ of FA were statistically decreased and AC was statistically increased in group C compared to those in group B(P＜0.05),however there was no significant difference of AO between groups B and C.Conclusions Short-term administration of simvastatin can improve the elasticity of some muscular arteries such as FA but not AO.

Iatrogenic traumatic biliary stricture is one of the difficult points in the biliary surgery,and operation is the only definitive treatment. The operative opportunity,surgical procedure and techniques are important for the prognosis.From January 1998 to December 2011,173 patients with iatrogenic traumatic stricture were admitted to the Eastern Hepatobiliary Surgery Hospital. According to the Bismuth classification of traumatic biliary stricture,10 patients were in type Ⅰ,22 in type Ⅱ,87 in type Ⅲ,38 in type Ⅳ and 16 in type Ⅴ.Excision of the traumatic stricture with end-to-end anastomosis was performed on 19 patients.Of the 173 patients,154 were treated by Roux-en-Y duodenojejunostomy, and 8 of them received additional hemihepatectomy or partial hepatectomy.A total of 155patients were followed up,with a median time of 74 months,the total excellent and good rate was 94.8％ ( 147/155 ).Surgery is the most effective therapy for iatrogenic traumatic biliary stricture. Optimal timing, reasonable surgical methods, strictly following the principle of biliary surgery and perfect operative skills are key points for a better prognosis.
