BACKGROUND:Traumatic soft tissue defects of the limbs are usual y accompanied with the exposure of tendon, joint capsule, bone or internal fixator, which can be reconstructed by skin flap. Previous research has shown that it is an important method to repair traumatic tissue defects with flaps. However, rarely research reports perioperative management about flap bed so far. OBJECTIVE:To explore the perioperative strategy for repairing traumatic soft tissue defects with revascularized flaps. METHODS:Total y 94 cases undergoing secondary skin flap repair were enrol ed. Intraoperative debridement using tourniquet was performed, and the wound was washed with mass of physiological saline. Whether the tissues, including bone, tendon, joint capsule and internal fixator, were reserved or not depended on their viability, and then the flaps were harvested to repair defects, and drainage was placed properly at last. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The flaps survived in al cases. Exudation occurred in 5 cases with the exposure of bone, and 28 cases with the exposure of tendon or joint capsule healed normal y. No complications were associated with the reservation of the internal fixators, but delayed-union occurred in three cases and nonunion in one case. These findings indicate that the perioperative treatment of the application of skin flap is worthy of attention. Careful debridement, advisable choice of the flap, efficient drainage and using antibiotic normatively are al keys. Treatment of the bone, tendon, joint capsule and internal fixator which are exposed should not only weigh the advantage and disadvantage, but also relax the indication of reserving them.

Objective To study the causes, diagnosis and treatment of the spontaneous perforation of sigmoid colon(SPSC). Methods The clinical data of 11 patients with SPSC admitted into our hospital from January. 1984 to September. 2000 were analyzed retrospectively. Results All the 11 cases of SPSC were proved by operation. Among them, 4 cases had chronic constipation history, 1 case complicated with mild proctoptoma before operation and the other 6 cases had no special records. 9 cases were misdiagnosed as perforation of acute appendicitis, perforation of upper gastroenteric tract, perforation of colon carcinoma, inflammatory perforation or fecal mass perforation. 2 cases recovered after repairing operation; of 9 cases underwent colostomy and other procedure, 7 cases recovered and colostomy closure was done 2-3 months after operation. 2 cases died after operation. Conclusions The occurrence of SPSC is closely related to the configuration and position of the patient's sigmoid colon. Increase of intra-abdominal pressure and intra-intestinal pressure are the predisposing causes of the disease. This disease has no special clinical manifestation. The key to diagnosis is a full knwledge of the disease before operation. The main treatment is operation. The mode of operation is determined according to patient's age, general condition, severity of abdominal pollution, attacking time. The best mode of operation is to repair and close the perforation or to resect and anastomose the bowel and colostomy.

Objective To investigate the effect of gavaged yAGA2-sCT, a recombinant Saccharomyces cerevisiae which expressed salmon calcitonin on its surface, on serum calcium concentration of rats. Methods The sCT gene was artificially synthesized in advance and cloned into the pYD1 vector, a kind of surface displaying plasmid, to yield pYD1-sCT. The recombinant plasmid pYD1-sCT was transformed into S. cerevisiae EBY100 by LiAC method and achieved yAGA2-sCT. The sCT protein, which was expressed on the surface of recombinant S. cerevisiae yAGA2-sCT, was indirectly labeled with FITC. Labeled yeast was immediately detected under the fluorescent microscope. Before being gavaged to rats, recombinant yeast was frozen and vacuum-dried. Lyophilized yeast yAGA2-sCT was administered to rats in dosage of 0.1g/kg, 0.5g/kg and 5.0g/kg, respectively, with 6 rats in each group. Positive drug group (200mU/kg calcitonin via hypodermic injection) and two conditional control groups (being gavaged 5g/kg yAGA2-sCT and 30?g/kg calcitonin, respectively) were acted as controls. The serum was collected from canthus venous plexus and the calcium concentration was immediately measured by automatic biochemical analyzer. Results The sCT protein was successfully expressed on the surface of recombinant yAGA2-sCT, and FITC-labeled yAGA2-sCT was observed under the fluorescent microscope. The recombinant S. cerevisiae yAGA2-sCT was able to reduce the serum calcium concentration of rats in a dose-dependent manner. In the three subgroups, the hypocalcemic effect of high-dosage subgroup, with 5g/kg lyophilized yAGA2-sCT, was the highest (P
