Objective To study the application and efficacy of hemihepatie vascular occlusion in HCC resection. Methods 90 ca-ses of HCC patients were roiled in and divided into two groups. Liver resection was performed with Pringle maneuver or hemihepatic vascular occhusion. Ischemia time, operative time, blood loss, postoperative liver function, the occurrence of complications and the recovery of gastro-intestinal function were recorded. The efficacy of the two occlusions was compared. Results There is no significant difference between hemibepatic vascular occlusion and Pringle maneuver in ischemia time, operative time, blood loss (P>0.05). However, there is signifi-cant difference in postoperative liver function, the occurrence of complications and intestinal function recovery time. The former is significant-ly superior to the latter (P<0.05). Conclusions The bemihepatic vascular occlusion and Pringle maneuver occlusion have no difference in ischemia time, operative time and blood loss. But bemihepatic vascular occlusion has less impact on liver function, lower rate of occur-rence of complications and faster recovery speed. Therefore, hemibepatie vascular occlusion is better than Pfingle maneuver occlusion in be-parle inflow occlusion in HCC surgery.

Objective The experiences of peri-operative management in senile acute abdominal patients were summarized in order to raise the successful rate.Method We analysed retrospectively 575 cases who were senile acute abdominal patients from 1990 to 2000.Results Among 575 cases,540 cases(93.9%)were cured.423 cases(73.5%) were with other chronic diseases and dysfunctions before operation.Various complications occurred in 168 cases(29.2%)and 35 cases(6.1%) died.The death causes mainly were correlated with accompanied chronic diseases.Conclusion Strengthen peri operative care,active management of other chronic diseases and adequate operation time are important significantly for senile acute abdomen to get satisfied outcome.

Objective To investigate the pathogentic factor of severe acute pancreatitis(SAP)-associated lung injury and the protective function of octreotide combined with alinastatin on SAP-associated lung injury in rats.Methods Eighty SD rats were randomly divided into 5 groups.Sham operative(S)group,SAP group,(octreotide)(O)group,ulinastatin(U)group and octreotide + ulinastatin (O+U)group,and each group was divided into 6h,12h sub-groups.After AP models were induced,the serum concentration of amylase(AMY),tumor necrosis factor?(TNF-?),malondiadehyde(MDA),and the concentration of(myeloperoxidase)(MPO) in lung tissue were determined;and the pancreas and lung pathology were graded,the changes of the above-mentioned indexes after using octreotide and ulinastatin were compared.Results(1)Compared to SAP group,AMY,TNF-?,MDA,MPO,and pancreas pathology score were decreased significantly in each of the 3 therapy groups during the same period;and at 12h,in O+U sub-group,lung pathology score also decreased compared to SAP group(P

0.05),but,serum AST and ALT were significantly decreased on the 12th hour in arterialization group(P

Objective To develop a new severe but sublethal acute pancreatitis mice model. Methods The animals were divided into two groups: the bile acid injection group and the control group. In the bile acid injection group, acute necrotizing pancreatitis was induced by intraductal administration of 0.1 ml of 1.0 % bile acid under 30 cm H 2O pressure, while the controls underwent the sham operation. The structural and functional features of the pancreas were examined at 24 hours after surgery. Results Pancreatic edema, bleeding, acinar cell necrosis and inflammation accompanied with increased serum amylase and MPO were found in the bile acid injection animals. Conclusions The sublethal acute pancreatitis mice model is ideal for pathogenetic and therapeutic study of acute necrotizing pancreatitis.

ObjectiveTo study the expression of ABCG2, SFRP2, BRMS1 and HPA and detect their clinicopathologicalsignificancesinthebenignandmalignatntlesionsofthegallbladder.MethodsEnVisiom immunohistochemical method for determining the expressions of ABCG2, SFRP2,BRMS1 and HPA was used in paraffin-embedded sections of surgical resected specimens from gallbladder adenocarcinoma (n =108), peritumoral tissues (n =46 ), adenomatous polyp (n =15 ), and chronic cholecystitis ( n =35 ).ResultsThe positive rates of ABCG2 and HPA expression were significantly higher in gallbladder adenocarcinoma than that in peritumoral tissues, adenomatous polyp and chronic cholecystitis (P ＜ 0. 05 or P ＜ 0. 01 ) ; The positive rates of SFRP2 and BRMS1 expression were significantly lower in gallbladder adenocarcinoma than that in peritumoral tissues, adenomatous polyp and chronic cholecystitis(P ＜0. 05 or P ＜0. 01 ). The positive cases of ABCG2 and/or HPA as well as negative ones of SFRP2 and/or BRMS1in the benign lesions showed moderately-or severely-atypical hyperplasia of gallbladder epithelium. The frequency of samples with positive staining for ABCG2 and/or HPA in cases with small tumor volume (diameter ＜ 2 cm), no lymph node metastasis, and no invasion into surrounding tissues was significantly lower than that in cases with larger tumor volume (diameter＞ 2 cm ), lymph node metastasis, and invasion into surrounding tissues ( P ＜ 0.05 or P ＜ 0. 01 ). However, compared with ABCG2 and/or HPA, the expression of SFRP2 and/or BRMS1 showed an opposite correlation in these cases ( P ＜ 0. 05 or P ＜0. 01 ). Unitivariate Kaplan-Meier analysis showed that increased expressions of ABCG2 (P =0. 019) and HPA ( P =0. 016) or decreased expression of SFRP2 ( P =0. 019) and BRMS1 ( P =0. 008 )were associated with poorer overall survival, respectively. Multivariate Cox regression analysis showed that increased expression of ABCG2 (P =0. 018 ) and HPA ( P =0. 019) and/or decreased expression of SFRP2 (P =0. 015 ) and BRMS1 ( P =0. 011 ) were independently poor-prognostic predictors in gallbladder adenocarcinoma.ConclusionsThe expression of ABCG2, SFRP2, BRMS1 or HPA might be closely related to the carcinogenesis, clinical biological behaviors, and prognosis of gallbladder adenocarcinoma.

Objective To establish a model of pancreatic cancer induced by 7,12-dimethylbenzathracene (DMBA) in SD rats, and to detect the expression levels of RAD51 and Myc-associated factor X (MAX) and their effect on carcinogenesis of rat pancreas. Methods Ninety SD rats were randomly divided into 3 groups: a model group, an intervention group, and a control group. DMBA was directly implanted into the parenchyma of rat pancreas (the model group and the intervention group). Rats in the intervention group were treated with 1 mL trichostatin A (TSA) saline solution (1 μg/mL) via ip weekly. Rats within 3～5 months in the model group and the intervention group were executed and observed by macrograph and under microscope. Meanwhile, the rats in the control group were executed at 5th month. The EnVision~(TM) immunohistochemistry to assay the expression levels of RAD51 and MAX was used in conventional paraffin-embedded sections from the above pancreatic specimens.Results The incidence of pancreatic cancer in the model group within 3-5 months was 48.7% (18/37), including 17 ductal adenocarcinomas and 1 fibrosarcoma. The incidence of pancreatic cancer in the intervention group within 3-5 months was 33.3%(12/36), including 11 ductal adenocarcinomas and 1 fibrosarcoma. The maximal diameter of mass in the model group was significantly higher than that in the intervention group (P＜0.05). No pathological changes were found in pancreas of the control group and other extra-pancreatic main organs of the model group and the intervention group (such as the liver, biliary tract, gastrointestine tract, kidney, and lung). The positive rate of RAD51 was significantly higher in ductal adenocarcinoma in the model group, the intervention group, and the model group +the intervention group than those in corresponding groups of non-cancerous pancreatic tissues (P＜0.01), but the positive rate of MAX expression was opposite to RAD51 expression(P＜0.01). The positive tissues of RAD51 expression and/or negative tissues of MAX expression in non-cancerous tissues showed atypical-hyperplasia of ductal epitheli. Pacncreas of the control group showed the negative expression of RAD51 and positive expression of MAX. Two cases of fibrosarcoma showed the negative expression of RAD51 and MAX.Conclusion DMBA directly implanted into the parenchyma of pancreas can obtain an ideal pancreatic cancer model with high incidence in a short time. The TSA might have an inhibitive effect on carcinogenesis and growth of rat pancreas. The over-expression of RAD51 and/or lose-expression might have important effect on carcinogenesis induced DMBA in rat pancreas.

Objective To study the expressive levels of galectin-3 (gal-3) and sambucus nigra agglutinin(SNA) and to detect their clinicopathological significances in benign and malignant lesions of the gallbladder. Methods EnVisonTM Immunohistochemistry for assaying gal-3 expressive levels and ABC cytochemistry for determining SNA expressive levels were used in conventional paraffin-embedded sections from the specimens of adenocarcinoma (n = 108) , peritumoral tissues (n=46) . Adenomatous polyp (n=15), and chronic cholecystitis (n = 35). Results The positive rates of gal-3 and SNA were significantly higher in adenocarcinoma (62. 0%, 66. 7%) than in peritumoral tissues (39. 1%,45.6%), adenomatous polyp (26.7%, 33.3%) and chronic cholecystitis (11.4%, 11.4%)(P<0. 05 or P<0. 01). The positive gal-3 and SNA in benign cases showed atypical hyperplasia of the epthelium. The positive rates of gal-3 and SNA expression were significantly lower in well-differentiated adenocarcioma, mass with a maximal diameter of <2 cm, absence of lymph node metastasis,and absence of invasion to adjacent tissues than in poor-differentiated adenocarcinoma, mass with a maximal diameter of ≥2 cm, lymph node metastasis and invasion to adjacent tissues. (P<0. 05 or P<0. 01). There was a significant correlation between the expressive levels of gal-3 and SNA in gallbladder adenocarcinoma (x2=9. 51, P<0. 01). Conclusions The expressive levels of gal-3 and SNA lectins had important effects on carcinogenesis, progression and biologic behaviors of gallbladder cancer. Patients with positive gal-3 and /or SNA expressions had poor prognosis.

Objective To establish a pancreatic cancer model in Sprague Dawley(SD) rats,and to study the distribution and the counts of myofibroblast(MF) in pancreatic cancer and non-cancerous pancreatic tissues.MethodsDirectly implanted DMBA into pancreas parenchyma of SD rats and established TSA intervening group and control group. The carcinogenesis of rats executed within 3～5 months were inspected by HE stain and microscopy for pathomorphological changes.Myofibroblast(MF) was stained by Heidenains method. Results (1)The prevalence of pancreatic cancer in experimental group was 48.7%(18/37), including 17 pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and 1 fibrosarcoma. The prevalence of pancreatic cancer in intervering group was 33.3%(12/36), including 11 pancreatic ductal adenocarcinoma and 1 fibrosarcoma. The maximal diameters of tumor mass of experimental group was higher than that of intervering group (P

Objective To investigate the earlier diagnostic methods and operative procedures of gastric remnant cancer. Methods Clinicopathologic data of 19 cases of gastric remnant cancer were retrospectively analysed,and the diagnostic value of the gastroscopy and barium meal was compared.Influencing the prognosis of gastric remnant cancer treated by different operations according to the situation seen during operation were observed. Results The diagnostic rate of gastroscopy and barium meal was 78.9% and 47.4%, respectively.All the 5 cases who underwent radical remnant gastrectomy sarvived≥3 years postoperatively.Two of the 3 cases who underwent palliative remnant gastrectomy survived 2 years and 1 alived 1.5 years postoperatively. In 6 cases of gastrojejunostomy, 4 cases died within half year, 2 cases died 12.5 and 14 months postoperatively. Conclusions The diagnostic value of gastroscopy takes advantage over barium meal examination. The patients who treated by radical remnant gastrectomy have better prognosis.
