Objective To review the experience of 162 cases of coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) via a lower median ministernotomy. Methods CABG through a lower median ministernotomy was conducted in 162 cases from April 1998 to June 2003, including 77 cases of CABG under extracorporeal circulation, 13 cases of CABG concomitant with intracardiac surgery, and 72 cases of off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG). Results There were 1 case of surgery-related death (0.6%) and 1 case of re-operation (0.6%). Postoperative complications occurred in 9 patients (5.6%). In conventional CABGs, the aortic cross-clamp time, cardiopulmonary bypass time, and operation time were 74.8?23.1 min, 113.6?31.3 min, and 255.5?54.5 min, respectively. The operation time of OPCABG was 195.6?50.6 min. The number of anastomoses ranged 1~5 (2.4?0.7). The length of postoperative tracheal intubation was 0~364 h (median, 11 h). The length of postanesthesia care unit (PACU) stay and hospital stay were 1~28 d (median, 3 d) and 5~60 d (median, 10 d), respectively. The chest drainage volume was 607.2?443.0 ml, or 8.6?6.0 ml/kg. A blood transfusion was required in 38 cases, with a transfusion amount of 1161.3?741.2 ml. Conclusions A less invasive approach is possible in coronary artery bypass grafting via a lower median ministernotomy. This procedure provides satisfactory outcomes and good cosmetic results, during which a complete revascularization for multiple vessels and concomitant intracardiac operations are available.

Objective To review the experience of 460 cases of cardiac operations through a lower median ministernotomy. Methods A total of 460 cardiac operations via a lower median ministernotomy route were carried out between January 1997 and August 2003 in this hospital, involving 100 operations for congenital heart diseases, 178 valve operations, 168 coronary operations, 12 operations for aneurysms, and 2 other operations. On operation no special instruments were required. Results Within the hospitalization period 4 patients died (0.9%) and 3 underwent a re-operation (0.7%). Postoperative complications occurred in 29 patients (6.3%). Off-pump operations were employed in 73 patients, while in the remaining 387 patients the cardiopulmonary bypass time was 25~1 115 min (median, 80 min) and the aortic cross-clamp time was 0~164 min (55.8?31.9 min). Of the 460 patients, the length of postoperative tracheal intubation was 0~364 h (median, 10 h), and the postoperative chest drainage was 20~3 290 ml (median, 350 ml), or 0.3~42.2 ml/kg (median, 5.8 ml/kg). Blood transfusion were required after surgery in 280 patients with an amount of 951.1?644.6 ml. The postoperative ICU and hospital stay were 1~28 d (median, 2 d) and 1~60 d (11.6?6.0 d), respectively. A follow-up for 7~80 months (59.2?29.6 months) in 371 patients was conducted. No long-term deaths were noted and symptoms were significantly improved. Heart function was classified as grade Ⅰ in 169 patients, grade Ⅱ in 135 patients, and grade Ⅲ in 67 patients, respectively, with significant difference as compared with that in pre-operation ( Z =-12.57 , P =0.000). No significant difference was observed in the cardiothoracic ratio (0.50?0.11, 0.41~0.67) between postoperative and preoperative period ( t =-1.63, P =0.104). The left ventricular ejection fraction was significantly higher postoperatively (0.36~0.71, 0.606?0.113) than preoperatively ( t =3.43, P =0.001). Conclusions In properly selected cases, heart operations through a lower median ministernotomy provides many advantages including mini-invasion, high reliability, excellent cosmetic results, simplicity to performance, and good surgical outcomes.

Objective:To investigate the changes of hyoid position and pharyngeal airway before and after sagittal split ramus osteotomy (SSRO) of skeletal mandibular prognathism. Methods:Sixteen severe skeletal mandibular prognathism cases(Class Ⅲ, 5 males and 11 females) were chosen. Pre and post operation lateral cephalograms analysis reflecting pharyngeal airway and position of the hyoid bone was performed. Results: ① After SSRO, the width of airway decreased significantly. ② The distance between the mandible and the hyoid bone was also decreased significantly. No significant differences were found regarding measurements of the hyoid bone to the cranial base in male patients. Conclusion: The distance from the mandible to the hyoid bone and the width of airway were decreased significantly after SSRO. It suggests that the tongue and airway might be reformed functionally to new environments following SSRO surgical treatment.

Purpose To investigate the imaging characteristics and accuracy of diagnosing pilocytic astrocytoma (PA) with perfusion weighted imaging (PWI), diffusion weighted imaging (DWI), magnetic resonance sprectroscopy, susceptibility weighted imaging (SWI) and diffusion tensor imaging. Material and Methods MRI imaging of 11 patients with PA was retrospectively analyzed for functional imaging features. Results In 11 patients with PA, there were 9 mixed cystic and solid lesions, 1 case of cystic lesion and 1 case with solid lesion. Ten lesions showed mixed hypointensity on T1WI, and mixed hyperintensity on T2WI and FLAIR. One case was hypointense on T1WI, and hyperintense on T2WI and FLAIR. Prominent contrast enhancement was seen in the solid portion, capsular wall and mural nodules. On SWI 3 cases showed patchy low signal, 2 cases of dot-like low signal and 2 cases without low signal, with average intratumoral susceptibility signal intensity classification of 1.57. PWI findings were characterized by high perfusion with relative cerebral blood volume averaging 2.64±1.22. There was elevated choline component in the solid portion with significantly decreased NAA with average Cho/NAA ratio of 5.13±4.72 (1.46-15.26). Lactate peak was increased in 5 cases. On DWI there was limited diffusion in 1 case. 7 cases did not demonstrate limited diffusion with average relative apparent diffusion coefficient of 1.60±0.58. Conclusion Most MRI features of pilocystic astrocytoma are consistent with low grade glioma. There are characteristic functional imaging findings with higher perfusion than other gliomas. Functional MRI can evaluate tumor metabolism and prognosis.

Objective To explore the clinical features of nephrotic syndrome combined with H1N1 influenza. Methods The clinical manifestations, laboratory and image examinations, treatment, and prognosis of nephrotic syndrome combined H1N1 influenza were retrospectively analyzed in 15 children with. Results All of 15 children with nephrotic syndrome met the diagnostic criteria of H1N1 influenza. The median age of all children was 4-year-8-month old (2-year-2-month to 6-year-9-month). All children were treated with hormone alone or combined with other immunosuppressive drugs. Three cases were severe and another 5 cases were critically ill. Four cases were complicated with recurrence of nephrotic syndrome, 2 of which suffered from acute renal insufficiency. All children were given oseltamivir as antiviral treatment at admission. Four cases took oseltamivir within 48 hours of onset and showed mild symptoms. Fourteen children with H1N1I influenza were cured, their urinary proteins were significantly decreased or converted to negative, and the median hospital stay was 8 days (1 to 25 days). One child died of acute necrotizing encephalopathy and brain herniation. Conclusions Children with nephrotic syndrome are susceptible to severe or critical H1N1 influenza infections. During the epidemic of H1N1 influenza, the clinical preventive measures should be taken in children with nephrotic syndrome.
