Objective To investigate the value of MRCP in conjunction with CT or MRI contrast-enhanced scan in locating and qualitative diagnosis of biliary obstruction.Methods 954 patients with biliary obstruction confirmed by surgical pathology and clini-cal follow up underwent MRCP scans in our hospital.Contrast-enhanced CT scans in 87 patients,contrast-enhanced MRI scans in 52 and both CT and MRI enhancement in 37 were performed.Results The accuracy of location of biliary obstruction with MRCP was 100%,the accuracy of quality of biliary obstruction with MRCP combined with CT or MRI dynamic contrast-enhanced scan was 96%.Conclusion MRCP combined with CT or MRI dynamic contrast-enhanced scans has an important clinical value for the locali-zation and qualitative diagnosis of biliary obstruction.

Objective:To summarize the perioperative nursing points of percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) in elderly patients with osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures assisted by robots, so as to provide reference for orthopedic nursing.Methods:From July 2019 to February 2021, the data of 72 patients undergoing robot-assisted PKP in the spinal surgery of the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University were retrospectively analyzed. The perioperative nursing points were summarized, and the nursing experience was summarized. The nursing under the new measures of precise minimally invasive treatment was analyzed and discussed. The length of hospital stay, postoperative ambulation time, complications and satisfaction survey results of patients were collected and recorded. The Numerical Rating Scale(NRS) score, Self-rating Anxiety Scale(SAS) score and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) score before and after surgery were compared. The correlation analysis of the scores of various factors was combined to comprehensively evaluate the surgical and nursing effects.Results:All patients had no complications related to machine use during and after operation, and their symptoms were improved to varying degrees. Fifty-seven cases of indwelling catheter, catheter time (19.00±14.24) h. The preoperative hospitalization time was (6.16±2.22) d, and the postoperative hospitalization time was (1.94±0.99) d. Postoperative bed time was (16.34±6.81) h. Postoperative nursing satisfaction was (98.55±2.44)%.The postoperative NRS and SAS scores were (1.00±0.55) and (32.06±5.33) points, respectively, which were lower than those before operation (3.51 ± 0.71) and (39.08±8.86) points, and the differences were statistically significant ( t values were 33.976, 8.184, P<0.01). There were statistically significant differences in six indicators of ODI scores before and after surgery, including low back pain, walking, standing, sitting, sleep and self-care ( P<0.01). Correlation analysis showed that there was a strong correlation between the six ODI score factors and the NRS score. The four factors of sitting, walking, low back pain and standing were highly correlated with SAS. Conclusions:The implementation of good perioperative nursing management for patients with PKP assisted by robot can effectively promote the rehabilitation of patients, reduce the incidence of complications and improve patient satisfaction.

Objective:To evaluate the safety and short-term outcomes of transfemoral transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) with domestic prostheses in patients with pure native aortic valve regurgitation (AR).Methods:A total of 16 patients with pure native AR who underwent transfemoral TAVR in the Renmin Hospital of Wuhan University from June 2019 to January 2022 were consecutively included in our study, and 24 patients with aortic stenosis (AS) who underwent transfemoral TAVR in the same period were selected as the control group. This study compared the baseline characteristics, baseline echocardiography, morphological characteristics of the aortic root, safety of the procedure and short-term outcomes between the two groups.Results:Compared with the AS group, the pure native AR group had a higher prevalence of baseline NYHA class Ⅲ or Ⅳ, a larger left ventricular end-diastolic diameter (LVEDD), a smaller relative ventricular wall thickness (RWT) (all P<0.05), a lower aortic root calcification score, and a larger sinus junction diameter, and cardiac angle (all P<0.05). During TAVR operation, the pure native AR group was treated with larger prostheses size, with a larger percentage in relation to the native annulus size and outflow tract (all P<0.05). There were 7 cases (43.8%) treated with 'valve in valve’, 2 cases (12.5%) with moderate paravalvular leak(PVL), and 2 cases (12.5%) with prostheses-migration to ascending aorta.However, no cases of death, transfer to surgery, coronary obstruction or annular rupture were observed in the pure native AR group. There were no statistical differences between the pure native AR group and AS group in device success rate (56.3% vs 62.5%, P>0.05) and 1-month all-cause mortality[0 (0/16) vs 4.2% (1/24), P>0.05]. The 6MWT, NT-proBNP, and NYHA were significantly improved at 1-month post TAVR compared with those before the procedure in the two groups (all P<0.05). Echocardiography showed significant reverse cardiac remodeling and improved left ventricular function compared with those before the procedure in the two groups. Conclusions:Transfemoral TAVR is a feasible and safe method for patients with pure native AR, and its short-term prognosis is similar to that in AS patients with well-established TAVR.
