Chinese Journal of Minimally Invasive Surgery 2005;0(12):-
Objective To investigate the clinical effectiveness of interventional therapy for deep venous thrombosis(DVT) in the lower limbs.Methods A total of 38 patients with DVT were treated by intravenous thrombolysis;12 of them received percutaneous transluminal balloon angioplasty and intravascular stenting after the thrombolysis.According the evaluation criteria of our hospital,the outcomes of the patients were classified as cure(angiography showed complete lysis of the thrombus and smooth venous wall),markedly improved(the deep vein was patent with intravascular mural thrombi,the inner radius was reduced by less than 1/3),improved(angiography showed residual thrombi in the deep vein,and the inner radius was reduced by more than 1/3),and failure(the vein was still obstructed).Results After the treatments,cure was achieved in 22 patients,markedly improved in 14,and improved in 2.No severe complications occurred during the operations.Thirty-four of the patients were followed up for 3-24 months(3-6 months in 7 cases,7-12 months in 12,and 13-24 months in 15).Two patients had recurrence during the follow-up and were cured by intravenous thrombolysis.Conclusion Interventional therapy is continent,effective,and safe for DVT.

In order to study and appraise the application of artificial dermis in repairing skin defect or organization damage, 20 patients underwent artificial dermis transplantation at the Department of Burn and Plastic Surgery, Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from January 2008 to April 2009 were collected. Patients with skin damage or depth portion organization (tendon, joint and bone appears externally) was perform debridement and artificial dermis transplantation, followed by split thickness autoskin transplantation. The survival of artificial dermis and split thickness autoskin was observed. After transplantation, the depth portion organization of patients were covered efficiently, all grafts survived without obvious scar proliferation. The results demonstrated that the prompt application of artificial dermis can reduce the surgery risk, relieve the surgery to damage, and reduce the scar production in repairing organization damage or depth portion organization expose.

Objective To investigate the outcomes of infection mauagement after patellar fracture surgery using vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) combined with closed irrigation-suction within the articular cavity.Methods We treated 7 patients who had been inflicted by infection after patellar fracture surgery from June 2008 to March 2012.They were 5 men and 2 women,aged from 19 to 52 years (average,40.5years).There were one open aud 6 close patellar fractures.Their infections occurred 14 to 21 days (average,17.7 days) after internal fixation.One infection was superficial and 6 were deep,resulting in pyogenous arthritis of the knee.All cases were given debridement and VSD treatment and immobilized with braces.The 6 cases of deep infection were irrigated continuously with 4000 mL 0.9% NaCl every day within the articular cavity.Direct skin suture or transplantation of local skin graft was performed after growth of fresh granulation tissue.Neer system was used to evaluate the knee functions at the last follow-up.Results After the VSD was applied for 7 to 12 days,the wound surface and knee cavity were very clean and fresh granulation tissue emerged.The wound was closed by direct suture for one superficial and one deep infection.Local skin grafts were transplanted for 5 deep infections.The infections were effectively controlled without pain,swelling or local fistula.The patients were followed up from 3 to 48 months (average,21 months).The functional outcome according to Neer' s criteria at the last follow-up was excellent in 2 cases,good in 3 and fair in 2.Conclusion In management of infection after patellar fracture surgery,VSD combined with closed irrigation-suction within the articular cavity can drain sufficiently,control infection effectively and stimulate fresh granulation growth,facilitating wound closure by direct suture or transplantation of a local skin flap.

Objective To investigate the protective effects of isovolemic hemodilution with 6% hetastarch (HAES) and ligustrazine on myocardium against ischemia/reperfusion injury. Methods Thirty-two healthy male rabbits were anesthetized with 3% pentobarbital 30 mg?kg-1 , tracheotomized and mechanically ventilated. Left femoral artery and vein were cannulated for direct BP monitoring, blood collection and fluid infusion. Chest was opened and myocardial ischemia was produced by temporary ligation of the anterior descending branch of left coronary artery. Myocardial ischemia was confirmed by elevation or depression of S-T segment and /or high T-wave. The animals were randomly divided into 4 equal groups with 8 animals in each group: Ⅰ control group was subjected to 45 min myocardial ischemia followed by 180 min reperfusion without any treatment; Ⅱ hemodilution group in which 9 ml Ⅲ kg-1 blood was removed and blood volume was maintained by simultaneous infusion of equal volume of 6% HAES at 20 min after myocardial ischemia was started; Ⅳ ligustrazine group received ligustrazine injectio 20 mg?kg-1 iv 20 min before and 40 min after myocardial ischemia was started; Ⅱ hemodilution + ligustrazine group in which hemodilution was performed as in group Ⅲ and ligustrazine injectio was given iv as in group Ⅲ . BP and HR were recorded before during and at the end of myocardial ischemia, and at 30, 60, 120, 180 min of reperfusion. Hct was measured before and after hemodilution. Blood samples were taken for determination of plasma CPK and LDH activities before ischemia (T0), at the end of 45 min ischemia (T1) and at the end of 180 min reperfusion (T2 ) . At the end of the experiment, myocardial tissue 0.2 g was obtained from ischemic and non-ischemic area for determination of myocardial CPK and LDH activities and election microscopic examination. Results (1) In all four groups plasma CPK and LDH activities were significantly increased after ischemia (T1 ) and were increased further after reperfusion (T2) (P

Objective To investigate the roles of hemopoietic stem cells (HSCs) in the pathogenesis of psoriasis. Methods HSCs were isolated from the bone marrow of a patient with psoriasis vulgaris and a normal human control. Forward- and reverse-subtracted cDNA libraries were constructed by using suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) technique between HSCs from the patient and control. Bacterial PCR and dot hybridization were performed to screen for positive clones followed by gene sequencing, identification and functional analysis. Real time quantitative PCR was carried out to measure the mRNA expression of interferon-γ and thymosin 10 (TMSB10). Results Nine genes were screened from the forward-subtracted cDNA library which encoded interferon-γ, tyrosine phosphatase, SUMO1 activase, etc, and 8 genes including the TMSB10-encoding gene were screened from the reverse-subtracted cDNA library. The relative expression level of interferon-γ in HSCs from the patient was 47.5 times that in HSCs from the control, while the level of TMSB10 from the control was 22.6 times that from the patient. Conclusion The abnormal expression of 17 genes which encode interferon-γ, thyrosin, and so on, may be involved in the development of psoriasis.

Objective To compare the effectiveness of enteral nutritional emulsion (TPF-D) and enteral nutritional emulsion (TP) in patients with chronic wound and diabetes (CWD). Methods Totally 20 CWD patients in Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from June 2008 to June 2010 were enrolled in this study. Enteral nutritional emulsion (TP) was used for the first 5 days ( TP group) and enteral nutritional emulsion (TPF-D) was used for the second 5 days (TPF-D group). Changes of mean amplitude of glycemic excursions (MAGE), insulin dosage, and prealbumin (PA) were compared between TPF-D group and TP group. The adverse effects and post-operational complications were also observed. Results The every-day MAGE was (2. 56 ±0. 35) mmol/L in TPF-D group, which was significantly lower than that in TP group [ (3.23 ± 0. 42) mmol/L] ( P = 0. 01 ). The mean insulin dosage was (9.6 ± 1.7) U in TPF-D group, which was significantly lower than that in TP group [ ( 12. 2 ± 2. 5 ) U ] ( P =0.03 ). The increase of PA showed no significant difference between TPF-D group [ ( 12.7 ± 3. 3) mg/L] and TP group [ ( 13.4 ± 2. 8 ) mg/L ] ( P = 0. 08 ). No enteral nutrition-related adverse effect or post-operation complication was noted. Conclusion Compared with TP, TPF-D is more suitable for the CWD patients.
