Objective To evaluate the efficacy of Grosse Kempf interlocking intramedullary nailing (Grosse Kempf IIN) and AO plate in the treatment of tibial fractures. Methods A retrospective analysis was done on the recovery of 55 cases with tibial fractures treated with the Grosse Kempf IIN (Group A) and 40 treated with AO plate (Group B) from 1994. Results The 10 26 months follow up showed that the healing rate and the infection rate were 98.2% (54/55) and 1.8% (1/55) respectively in the Group A with a mean healing time for 5.6 months and 90.0% (36/40) and 12.5% (5/40) respectively in the Group B with a mean healing time for 7.5 months. Conclusions The Grosse Kempf IIN has obvious advantage of excellent biodynamics, reliable fixation, simple operation, less trauma on regional blood supply and is more effective in the treatment of tibial fractures than the AO plate. Nevertheless, I IN itself has limitation for further application.

Objective To determine the impact of exogenous vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) on rat liver function after partial liver transplantation. Methods Male SD rats which had undergone 30% partial liver transplantation were divided into VEGF treatment group (n=60) and control group (n=60). Animals in each group were injected with solution of VEGF or saline, respectively. Serum ALT, AST, and hyaluronic acid (HA) levels were assessed at 0, 12, 24, 72, 168 hours after operation. Results Serum ALT, AST and HA levels were significantly decreased at 72 hours after transplantation in VEGF treatment group compared with controls (t =4.681, 4.252, 2.853, P<0.05). In accordance with liver function, treatment with VEGF minimized the damage to the liver sinusoidal endothelial cells and decreased the infiltration of inflamatory cells. Conclusion Administration of VEGF may improve the liver function of rats after partial liver transplantation by maintaining the integrality of the sinusoidal structure and reducing the inflamation reaction.

Objective To investigate the clinical effects of liver transplantation including living related liver transplantation for Caroli's disease (CD). Methods Seven consecutive patients with diffused type of Caroli's disease had undergone liver transplantation (LT) from September 1999 to February 2007 in our single center. The clinical characteristics and survival of these patients were retrospectively reviewed. Results All 7 patients were diagnosed as Caroli's disease with diffused type which manifested recurrent cholangitis in clinical symptoms. Among them, 4 were female and 3 male.The mean age was 16 years old (ranging from 10 to 31 years old). Six patients were subjected to conservative therapy and only one patient had previously undergone cholecystectomy and T tube drainage before transplantation. In types of surgery, 4 patients accepted split liver transplantation with right liver lobe, two got whole liver transplantation and only one underwent living related liver transplantation. In two patients venovenous bypass was done during the operation. The mean duration of surgery was 9. 1 h. Post-transplant complications included pulmonary infection (3 cases), acute rejection (2 cases), pleural effusion (2 cases) and biliary leakage in the split section of donor liver (1 case). One patient died within 19 days caused by acute renal failure and multiple organs dysfunction.The rest six patients are alive without any signs of recurrence of protopathy and the longest survival time is 7 years. Conclusion Liver transplantation is a valuable treatment to Caroli's disease with diffused type. Due to the organ shortage, living related liver transplantation may own identical effects on LT.

Objective To explore the association of Crohn's disease (CD) with T cell immunoglobulin and mucin domain 3 (Tim-3) gene polymorphisms in patients of Zhejiang Han population in China.Methods A total of 308 CD patients and 573 age-and sex-matched healthy controls were enrolled in our study.Two single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) of Tim-3 (rs1036199 and rs10515746) were examined by the improved multiple ligase detection reaction technique (iMLDR).Analyses of linkage disequilibrium and haplotype were also performed by Haploview 4.2 software in all study subjects.Results In general,the allele and genotype frequencies of Tim-3 (rs1036199 and rs10515746) were not statistically different between CD patients and the controls (all P >0.05).According to the Montreal Classification,CD patients were divided into different subgroups.The variant allele (C) and genotype (AC + CC) of rs1036199 were more frequent in CD patients with penetrating diseases than in the controls (10.4% vs 1.7%,P =0.002;20.8% vs 3.5%,P =0.023).Similar conclusions were also drawn for the variant allele (A) and genotype (CA + AA) of rs10515746 in patients with penetrating diseases when compared with the controls (10.4% vs 2.2%,P =0.000;20.8% vs 4.2%,P =0.033,respectively).The two SNPs of Tim-3 were in strong linkage disequilibrium (D'=1.0,r2 =0.928).The haplotype (AC) formed by their wild-type alleles (A) and (C) was decreased in patients with penetrating CD compared with the controls (89.6% vs 98.3%,P =0.000).However,the haplotype (CA) formed by their variant alleles was more frequent in patients with penetrating CD than in the controls (10.4% vs 1.6%,P =0.000).Conclusions Tim-3 (rs1036199 and rs10515746) variations might be correlated with the enhanced risk of penetrating diseases in CD patients.Furthermore,the haplotype (AC) and (CA) formed by the two SNPs might be a protective and a risky factor for penetrating CD respectively.
