Objective To explore the etiology,clinical characteristics,diagnosis and treatment of the bile duct perforation in children.Methods The clinical data of 7 children with the bile duct perforation were retrospectively summarized in Wuhan Children's Hospital from April of 2009 to April of 2014.Results There were 7 cases of the children with perforation of the bile duct,1 male and 6 female,the average age was 2.05 years.The most common presenting symptoms were abdominal distension in 7 cases(100.0％),nausea and vomiting in 6 cases(85.7％),abdominal pain in 5 cases(71.4％),jaundice in 1 case(14.3％) and diarrhea in 1 case(14.3％).Six cases experienced preoperative abdominal paracentesis,which all gained bilious ascites.Both abdominal ultrasound and computed tomography(CT) showed ascites in 5 cases.On exploration,sites of perforation were seen in 3 cases(42.8％) at the junction of the common hepatic duct and cystic duct,1 case(14.3％) at common hepatic duct,and 1 case(14.3％) at common bile duct,while sites of perforation in other 2 cases(28.6％) were not localized.In the cases(case 1,2,5 and 7) whose site of perforation was large,the T-tube drainage and peritoneal drainage through laparotomy or laparoscopic surgery was performed.In case 4 whose site of perforation was very small,and case 3 and 6 whose site of perforation was not localized,the cholysystostomy and peritoneal drainage was performed through laparotomy or laparoscopic surgery.Simple closure of the perforation was performed in case 4.Case 4 and 5 showed recurrent abdominal pain after operation and abdominal CT revealed biliary tract dilatation,and then biliary reconstruction was performed.Both of the patients recovered well postoperatively.The other 5 children recovered well and had an uneventful postoperative period from the 7 months to 5 years follow-up.Conclusions Early diagnosis of perforation of the bile duct can be made based on clinical manifestations,abdominal ultrasound and CT and abdominal paracentesis.Active surgical treatment should be performed once diagnosis was made.Depending on the size of perforation of the bile duct,appropriate surgical drainage scheme is made.The children with recurrent abdominal pain and biliary tract dilatation should receive biliary reconstruction.

This study is to investigate the anti-tumor activities of a novel cyclophosphamide derivate 4, 6-diphenyl cyclophosphamide (9b) in vivo and in vitro, and its possible mechanism of action. The inhibitory effects of 9b on human hepatoma cell line HepG2, human breast carcinoma cell line MCF-7 and human myeloid leukemia cell line K562 were measured by MTT assay in vitro. Cell cycle distribution and apoptotic rate were evaluated by flow cytometry. To evaluate the anti-tumor effect of 9b in vivo, mouse model bearing inoculated H22 tumor was established. The results indicated that 9b could inhibit the proliferation of HepG2, MCF-7 and K562 cells in a dose and time dependent manner. The ICo50 values of 9b were 32.34 micromol.L-1 to HepG2 cells, 87.07 micromol.L-1 to MCF-7 cells and 149.10 micromol.L-1 to K562 cells after incubation for 48 h. The results of flow cytometry indicated that after being treated for 48 h with different concentrations of 9b, the ratios of HepG2, MCF-7 cells at the Go/G1 phase and K562 cells at the G0/Gl phase and G2/M phase increased significantly compared with control group, and the apoptotic rate increased with the increase of the concentration of 9b. 9b could significantly reduce tumor weight of H22 solid tumor mouse model in vivo. To summarize, 9b showed significantly anti-tumor activity in vivo and in vitro, of which the mechanism might be associated with the change of cell cycle distribution and induction of tumor cell apoptosis.
