Chinese Journal of Hepatobiliary Surgery 2012;(12):916-918
Objective To evaluate the role of computer-assisted surgical planning system in liver resection for patients with hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods Between January 2010 and January 2012,21 patients with HCC who underwent liver resection were included in this study.Computer assisted operative planning was performed before surgery.Results Computer-assisted surgical planning was performed successfully in all the 21 patients.The three dimensional anatomic evaluation was precise and quantitative.The predicted liver resection volume showed a significant correlation with the actual volume,with a mean difference of 3.5%.The types of liver resection included anatomic liver resection (15 patients) and local resection (6 patients).There was a 0% mortality and a 14.3% morbidity (3/21).Conclusions The computer-assisted surgical planning system reliably analyzed the 3D vascular structures and predicted accurately liver resection volumes.It can help to promote precise and safe liver resection.
2.Surgical treatment of congenital bile duct dilatation with involvement of the intrahepatic bile duct: advances, difficulties, and controversy
Journal of Clinical Hepatology 2017;33(2):263-267
Congenital bile duct dilatation may occur in any part of the biliary tree,and the diagnosis and treatment of lesions involving the intrahepatic bile duct is the most challenging issue.Surgical operation plays a dominant role in the management of congenital bile duct dilatation,with the purposes of relieving symptoms and preventing disease progression and malignant transformation.Surgical principles are radical resection of lesions and reconstruction of unobstructed bile drainage.Hepatectomy is the main surgical procedure for congenital bile duct dilatation with involvement of the intrahepatic bile duct,and liver transplantation can be used for diffuse lesions.Therefore,we believe that hepatectomy and early intervention will maximize patients' benefits.

Objective To investigate the effects of 1% ropivacaine injected epineurally or intraneurally on the recovery of sciatic nerve from acute injury in rats. Methods Seventy-two healthy male Wistar rats weighing 220-250 g were xandomly assigned into 4 groups ( n = 18 each): group Ⅰ epineural injection of normal saline(NS)(group C1); group Ⅱ intraneural injection of NS (group C2); group Ⅲ epineural injection of 1% ropivacaine (group Epi-R) and group Ⅳ intraneural injection of 1% ropivacaine (group Intra-R). The animals were anesthetized with intraperitoneal 3% pentobarbital 60 mg/kg. The sciatic nerve was exposed and crushed with blood vessel clamp for 2 min. NS or 1% ropivacaine 0.2 ml was injected epineurally or intraneurally after release of the clamp.Sciatic nerve function was measured and sciatic nerve function index (SFI) was calculated at day 1, 3, 7, 14, 21and 28 after operation. Six animals in each group were anesthetized on the 14th and 28th day after operation and the nerve conduction velocity (NCV) of the sciatic nerve was measured. The sciatic nerve was then removed for histologic examination. Results There was no significant difference in SFI and NCV at all time points among group C1 , C2 and Epi-R. SFI was almost normal on the 28th day after operation in the 3 groups. The NCV was significantly slower at day 14 and 28 after operation in intra-R group than in the other 3 groups. Conclusion Intra-neural injection of ropivacaine can significantly delay the recovery of sciatic nerve from acute injury.

For unresectable advanced hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC),besides sorafenib,alternative drugs and treatment modalities are required.Clinical studies of hepatic arterial infusion chemotherapy (HAIC),transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE),and system chemotherapy have shown favorable efficacy and tolerance in advanced HCC patients.In addition,the potential efficacy of sorafenib combined with focal treatment is also an interesting issue.As more therapies become available,decision-making for treating advanced HCC becomes increasingly complex.In our opinion,diverse treatment modalities should be utilized for the best interest of patients.Based on predictive biomarkers,we should develop a precise patient stratification system to select suitable candidates for each treatment modality in future studies,as is useful for improving prognosis of patients with advanced HCC.

Objective To observe the effect of fasudil on cytoskeleton reconstruction in mouse podocytes induced by angiotensin Ⅱ (Ang Ⅱ),as well as to study the protective mechanism of fasudil in the pathological changes of podocytes.Methods Conditionally immortalized mouse podocytes were treated with Ang Ⅱ (10-7 mol/L).The podocytes were pre-incubated for 30 min or 60 min with various concentrations of fasudil (10-8,10-7,10-5 mol/L),then Ang Ⅱ (10-7 mol/L) were added and furtherincubated for 24 hours.The cytoskeleton distribution of podocyte as indicated by F-actin and synaptopodin was observed by fluorescence microscopy and Western blotting.At the same time,the activity of Rho signal pathway that mediates actin filament polymerization was analyzed by measuring the extent of Rho-associated coiled-coil-containing protein kinase 1 (ROCK-1) and myosin phosphatase-1 (MYPT1).Results Compared to the control group,AngⅡ disrupted the podocyte actin cytoskeleton and significantly decreased the expression of synaptopodin (P < 0.05),while fasudil stabilized the actin filaments,and improved the synaptopodin expression (P < 0.05).The expression enhancement of ROCK-1 and MYPT1 by Ang Ⅱ were reduced significantly by fasudil (P<0.05).Conclusion The cytoskeleton reconstruction of podocytes can be induced by Ang Ⅱ and inhibited by fasudil,which suggests that the protective effect of fasudil may be partially contributed to the Rho/ROCK signaling pathway.

Objective To study the effect of chronic poisoning of ketamine on brain cell apoptosis in adult mouse under different duration and doses. Methods The mouse model of chronic poisoning of ketamine was established on adult mouse by tail vein injection of ketamine twice every week with different doses (4, 10, 20 and 30 m g/kg). The mice were sacrificed after continuous injection of ketamine of 1, 2, 4, 8 and 12 weeks. The qualitative assessment of apoptosis was made by transmission electron microscope and the quantitative assessment was made by Caspase-3 im m umofluorescence staining method and terminal deoxynucleotidyl transferase-mediated dU TP nick end labeling (TUNEL ) to estimate the time point of apoptosis. All the experimental results were statistically analyzed. Results The neuron apoptosis was ob-served in hippocam pus and corpus striatum by transmission electron microscope one week after adminis-tration, and continued for eight weeks. High level of Caspase-3 expression was observed one week after administration, but with a lowlevel expression after 4 weeks. The num ber of TUNEL positive cells ob-viously increased one week after administration and maintained in ahigh num ber at 4 weeks. Conclu-sion Ketamine by tail vein injection could induce neuron apoptosis in adult mouse.
