Objective To evaluate the impact of pancreatic duct hanging and continuous suturing maneuver in end-to-side pancreaticojejunostomy on the incidence of pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD),and to study the feasibility,safety and efficacy.Method 165 patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy were randomly selected and the incidences of pancreatic fistula for the different types of pancreaticojejunostomy were analyzed.Results The overall rate of pancreatic fistula was 13.9％ (23/165).The incidences of pancreatic fistula after pancreatic duct hanging and continuous suturing maneuver in end-to-side anastomosis (3.1％,2/65,group C) was significantly lower than the traditional intussusception anastomosis (23.1％,12/52,group A,P＜0.05) and the mucosa mucosa anastomosis (18.8％,9/48,group B).There was no significant difference between the traditional intussusception anastomosis and the mucosa mucosa anastomosis (P＞0.05).In group C,the average operative time,intraoperative blood loss,and postoperative drainage was obviously superior to the A and B group (P＜0.05).There was no significant difference between the A and B group (P＞0.05).The other complications showed no significant differences among the three groups (P＞0.05).Conclusion Pancreatic-duct hanging and continuous suturing maneuver in end-to-side anastomosis significantly reduced the rate of pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduedenectomy.It was feasible,safe,convenient to use and should be popularized.

Objective: To investigate the application value of thrombelastography(TEG) in coagulation monitoring for ACS patients.Methods: Totally 255 ACS patients were selected with coagulation monitoring by TEG.The patients were divided into none ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (NSTEMI) group and ST-segment elevation myocardial infarction (STEMI) group.The clotting characteristics in different types of ACS patients were compared and analyzed.Results: The ACS patients had higher intensity of thrombosis (MA) and Angle value.D-dimer and MA were significantly different between NSTEMI group and STEMI group(P＜0.01).The drug utilization in STEMI group was closer to the requirements of the guidelines.Conclusion: TEG shows high application value in coagulation monitoring for ACS patients.MA value and Angle value are more sensitive in evaluating hypercoaguable state.

OBJECTIVETo explore the clinical outcomes of multi-ligaments reconstruction with single tendon in treating acute joint dislocation of the first carpometacarpal.

METHODSFrom December 2008 to October 2012, 4 patients with acute dislocation of the first carpometacarpal were treated with single carpi radialis longus tendon to reconstruct periarticular four ligaments, which included dorsal ligament, palmar ligament, dorsal radiocarpal ligament, and intermetacarpal ligament between the first and second. There were 3 males and 1 female aged from 22 to 63 years old with an average of 38.7. X-ray, JAMAR grid strength testing, range of motion of carpometacarpal joint and VAS score were used to evaluate clinical outcomes.

RESULTSAll patients were followed up from 6 to 40 months with an average of 19 months. The wound were healed well at stage I. No dislocation of the first carpometacarpal joint and signs of joints degeneration occurred on X-ray at 1, 3 and 6 months after operation. JAMAR grip strength recovered from 60 percent to 90 percent of health wide. The results of ROM showed 3 cases recovered flexion and extension of joints and 1 case limited adduction. VAS score was 0 to 1.

CONCLUSIONFor acute dislocation of the first carpometacarpal joint, reconstruction four ligaments with single carpi radialis longus tendon can be considered the selected treatment,which can restores joint stability and improve joint function.

Objective To evaluate the cause of ischemia related to myocardial bridge (MB) by using SPECT/CT MPI and CTCA.Methods A total of 294 patients with chest pain,tightness or palpitation undergoing both CTCA and MPI were retrospectively enrolled in this study from March 2008 to March 2013.Among them,49 patients (26 males,23 females,age:32-85 (55.4± 16.6) years) had MB.Locations of MB and myocardial ischemia were recorded.Fused MPI/CTCA was analyzed.If there was no mural atherosclerotic plaque-related stenosis on CAG at the same location of coronary artery where ischemic myocardium was found,then MB was considered as the ischemic cause.Myocardial ischemia rates of different MB locations were compared by x2 test.Results Among 49 patients with MB,3 cases had MB in proximal segment of LAD,34 in mid LAD,4 in distal LAD,3 in septal branch,2 in distal LCX,1 in intermedius,and 2 in mid RCA.There were 41 cases with myocardial ischemia.Myocardial ischemia in 32 cases was caused by MB,including 23 caused by MB in mid LAD.The myocardial ischemia rates of the most common MB location (mid LAD,n =34) and other locations (n =15) were not significantly different (67.6％ (23/34) vs 60.0％ (9/15),x2 =0.27,P＞0.05).Conclusions MB is commonly found in the mid LAD.The myocardial ischemia rates caused by MB is not related the MB location.Hybrid MPI/CTCA could evaluate the sites of coronary MB and myocardial ischemia simultaneously and therefore may be useful to evaluate the relationship between MB and myocardial ischemia.

Objective To evaluate the outcome of surgical treatment of tricuspid valve regurgitation after valve replacement.Methods Twenty one patients with tricuspid valve insufficiency after valve replacement were performed surgical treatment.Tricuspid valve-plasty was performed in 17 patients and tricuspid valve replacement was done in 4 patients.Three patients underwent edge-to-edge tricuspid valveplasty.DeVega procedure was performed in 5 patients.Cosgrove-Edward annuloplasty ring was used in 15 patients.Four patients' valve were replaced by SJM bileallet mechanical prostheses.Results There was 3 patients dead early after operation with a mortality of 14.3％(3/21).The causes of death including multiple organ failure,cardiac arrest and low cardiac output syndrome.The rate of early postoperative complications was 33.3％ (7/21),including pulmonary edema,arrhythmia,acute renal failure and low cardiac output syndrome.The patients were followed up 9-60 months.The rate of readmission was 23.8％ (5/21).Two patients went to hospital again for pleural effusion,1 patient for left ventricular dysfunction and 2 patients for right ventricular dysfunction.The other patients recovered well.Conclusions Surgical therapy is effective on severe tricuspid valve regurgitation after valve replacement.Preoperative aggressive treatment of heart failure,a reasonable grasp of surgical indications and timing of surgery,strict perioperative management are the keys to guarantee patients a smooth recovery.

Objective To observe the phosphorylation of Smad3 in hyperplastic scar fibroblasts (HSFs) induced by hematoporphyrin monomerthyl ether (HMME) followed by photodynamic therapy (PDT).Methods Fibroblasts were isolated from the hypertrophic scar tissues of 10 patients and subjected to culture in vitro.After 3-5 passages,the HSFs were divided into 4 groups:control group receiving no treatment,PDT group pretreated with HMME of 4 μg/ml followed by PDT,HMME group induced by HMME alone,and laser group irradiated with laser alone.Fluorescence microscopy was used to observe the expression of Smad3 after immunofluorescent staining with anti-Smad3 antibody,and Western blot to detect the expression of Smad3 and phosphorylated Smad3 in these HSFs.Paired t test was conducted to compare the difference in Smad3 and phosphorylated Smad3 expression between these groups.Results The total fluorescence intensity of Smad3 was similar between these groups,but the intranuclear fluorescence signal was significantly weaker in the PDT group than in the control group.The level of phosphorylated Smad3 was statistically decreased in the PDT group compared with the control group (0.20 ± 0.02 vs.0.92 ± 0.15,P ＜ 0.05),but no significant difference was observed between the HMME group and laser group (P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion PDT may inhibit the proliferation of HSFs via attenuating the phosphorylation of Smad3.

Objective To observe the variations in intraocular pressure(IOP)in vocal cord polyp resections supported by pedestal Iaryngoscope with Tono-Pen tonometer.Methods The IOP of patients (grade Ⅰ-Ⅱby ASA)who underwent vocal cord polyp resections supported by pedestal laryngoscope were detected by Tono-Pen tonometer 5 minutes later on supine position before the operation(T1),5 minutes later on cervical hyperextension position before the operation(T2),5 minutes later on cervical hyperextension position after the operation(T3),5 minutes lateron supine position after the operation(T4),20 minutes later on supine position after the operation(T5)after general anesthesia respectively.At each point the changes of mean arterial pressure(MAP),heart mte(HR),end-tidal carbon dioxide partial pressure(PETCO2),and airway pressure(PAW)were observed as well.Results There were no differences in MAP,HR,RETCO2,PAW at each point statistically.The IOP increased significantly at T2,T3,T4 compared with IOP at T1[(19.0±1.8),(25.7±1.9),(17.8±1.9)mm Hg(1 mm Hg=0.133 kPa)vs(11.9±1.7)mm Hg](P＜0.05).The differences between IOP at T2 and T3 were manifest(P＜0.05).So it Was the situation when the IOP at T3 and T4,T4 and T5 were compared(P＜0.05).The IOP at T5 was(12.1±1.5)mm Hg,there was no difference compared with T1.Conclusion The IOP increases gradually from the point when the patient put on cervical hyperextension position before the operation after general anesthesia and achieves the summit when the patient put on cervical hyperextension position after the operation,finally,decreases back to the preoperative level when the patient put on supine position after the operation.
