Objective To study the methods and effects by using thrombolytic catheter in interventional treatment for patients with acute lower limb arterial thrombosis or embolism. Methods One hundred and twelve patients suffered acute lower limb arterial thrombosis or embolism. There were 85 cases of acute lower limb arterial embolism induced by atrial fibrillation in coronary or rheumatic heart disease,other 27 cases of arterial thrombosis caused by different reasons. Interventional treatment by inlying thrombolytic catheter was applied and continuous perfusion was received locally in all patients. Results Complete recanalization was got in 77 cases (68.8%) of 112 cases. Partial re canalization was got in 23 cases (20.5%), and ischemia limbs were saved in spite of chronic limb ischemia(chronic spasmodic limb) occurring in the later follow-up. Nine cases (8.0%) were amputated as a result of irreversible limbs necrosis, 3 cases (2.7%) died from acute renal failure resulting from reperfusion injury or recurrent cerebral embolism.Conclusion Interventional treatment by inlying thrombolytic catheter is a safe and effective method with lower amputation rate for acute lower limb arterial thrombosis or embolism in patients.

Objective To investigate the feasibility and therapeutic effect of stenting therapy by using modified Y-shaped self-expandable metal stent for the stenosis of gastroenteric stoma. Methods According to the particular anatomic structures and the pathological features of the narrowed gastroenteric stoma,the authors designed a modified Y-shaped self-expandable metal stent.

Objective To design a new integrated portable biliary internal-external drainage catheter carrying125 I seeds used for the treatment of malignant biliary obstruction lesions so as to achieve the dual curative effects of biliary drainage and brachytherapy. Methods A total of 15 patients with malignant obstructive jaundice, who were admitted to the First Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University, China, during the period from September 2016 to January 2018, were enrolled in this study. Biliary stent implantation was performed in all patients, which was followed by insertion of a new integrated portable biliary internal-external drainage catheter carrying125 I seeds. The technical success rate, clinical success rate, complications, stent patency time and patient survival rate were evaluated. Results The placement of the drainage tube was simple and smooth, and the technical procedure was successful in all patients. One month after treatment, the bilirubin level was decreased significantly when compared with preoperative one (P<0.01), while the blood indexes and immunological indicators showed no obvious changes (P>0.05) . After treatment, 2 patients (13.3％) developed cholangitis and 2 patients (13.3％) had small amount of biliary bleeding, which returned to normal after symptomatic treatment. No severe complications such as perforation of bile duct, massive bleeding, radiation enteritis and radioactive source leakage, etc., occurred. The patients were followed up for 55-402 days, 6 patients (40.0％) developed biliary re-obstruction. The median patency time of stent was 255 days, and 6-month stent patency rate was 64.5％. Five patients died and 10 patients survived, the 9-month survival rate was 64.3％, the median survival time was 368 days. Conclusion By using the new integrated portable biliary internal-external drainage catheter carrying125 I seeds, the effects of bile drainage and brachytherapy can be simultaneously achieved. Preliminary clinical practice indicates that this new drainage catheter is feasible, safe and effective, although its long-term efficacy needs to be clarified with further follow-up observations and controlled studies.

Objective To design a kind of nasal feeding nutritional tube that can carry 125I particles,to use this tube for the treatment of upper digestive tract malignant occlusive disease in order to achieve double effect of nasal feeding nutrition and brachytherapy.Methods 125I particles were put into a 3F catheter,then both ends of the catheter were sealed off to make 125I particle chain.By using binding technology,the 125I particle chain was fixed on the nasal feeding tube.Under DSA guidance,the nasal feeding tube carrying 125I particle chain was inserted into the esophagus,with the 125I particle chain segment crossing over the section of esophageal stenosis or occlusion to conduct brachytherapy.This technique was employed in 6 patients with advanced esophageal carcinoma.The technical success rate,operation time and complications were recorded.Two months after the treatment,the Karnofsky score,visual analogue scale (VAS) pain score,Neuhaus dysphagia grading,esophagus patency on esophageal radiography,and local tumor control rate were determined.Results The preparation of nasal feeding nutritional tube carrying 125I particle chain was simple.The technical success rate was 100％,the mean operation time was 15.5 min,no serious complications such as bleeding or infection occurred.Two months after the treatment,the Karnofsky score,VAS pain score and Neuhaus dysphagia grading were significantly improved when compared with the preoperative data (P＜0.O1).On esophageal radiography,the contrast agent passed through the narrow area smoothly.Partial remission (PR) of local tumor was obtained in all patients,and the local tumor control rate was 100％.The patients were followed up for 2-6 months,one patient developed recurrent obstruction.Conclusion It is simple and easy to prepare a nasal feeding nutritional tube carrying 125I particle chain,the use of this kind of tube can achieve both parenteral nutrition and brachytherapy at the same time.Therefore,this technique opens a new way for the treatment of esophageal malignant tumor.

Objective:To observe any effect of repeated magnetic stimulation of the spine on lower urinary tract function and the life quality of patients with neurogenic bladder after suprasacral spinal cord injury (SCI).Methods:Fifteen suprasacral SCI patients whose lower urinary tract function was not improving were enrolled. In the first 2 weeks, all received water drinking management and intermittent catheterization, while in the following 4 weeks they were additionally provided with daily transspinal magnetic stimulation at the level of the spinous process of the first lumbar vertebra five times a week. The stimulation frequency was 1Hz. The patients kept voiding diaries. Their urodynamics were quantified using neurogenic bladder symptom scoring (NBSS) and a life quality scale.Results:The frequency of catheterization and the average voided volume, as well as the maximum detrusor pressure during the storage phase, maximum bladder capacity, maximum urethral pressure during the voiding phase and voiding efficiency at the end of the sixth week were significantly different from those at the end of the second week and before the intervention. The average NBSS and life quality scores then showed significant differences from the earlier time points.Conclusion:Repeteitive transspinal magnetic stimulation of the spine can improve lower urinary tract functioning and the life quality of persons with neurogenic bladder after a suprasacral SCI.
