Objective To discuss the CT diagnosis and differential diagnosis of lumbar posterior marginal intraosseous cartilaginous nodes(LPMN)and the possible pathogenesis.Methods CT manifestations of LPMN in 29 cases hospitalized in the last three years were analysed retrospectively.Results The mainly CT features of LPMN included:(1)Osseous defect with sclerotic margin in the posterior-superior or posterior-inferior margins of centrum;(2)Behind the defect area,bone fragments protrude into the spinal canal,totally dislocated or partially joined with centrum;(3)The dural sac and nerve root compressed accompanied by lumbar disc herniation and spinal canal stenosis.Conclusion LPMN can be definitively diagnosed by CT scan,which provides reliable basis for the treatment project.

Purpose:To investigate the feasibility of Gemci tabine with Lipiodol Emulsion for treatment of advanced liver cancer and its si de-effects.Methods:31 advanced liver cancer cases were treated with Gemcit abine with Lipiodol Emulsion for arterial embolijation some were treated with ar terial infusion chemotherapy.Early therapeutic effect and side-effects were eva luated after the first initial therapy. Results:In 31 patients ,4 patients were liver metastases from l ung carcinoma,8 patients were liver metastases from pancreatic carcinoma ,7 pati ents were liver metastases from colorectal carcinoma,12 patients were primary ma ssive liver cancer After the first treatment,the symptoms of gastrc pain and app etite were ameliorated,more over,the side-effects (omit,heart toxicity ,myelosu ppression) was slight. Conclusions:treatment using gemcitabine with lipiodol emulsion for arterial emboliyation and arterial infusion for chemtherapy in advanced live r cancer is not only safe but also improves the patients' quality of life.The r esults suggested that the treatment is mild in toxicity.

Objective: To design and synthesize a novel vector for rhBMP2 delivery system in tissue engineering. Methods:Dextran glycidol methacrylate(dex-GMA) was synthesized with dextran(dex) and glycidol methacrylate(GMA).Dex-GMA microspheres were prepared by suspension polymerization. The swelling behavior of the microspheres was evaluated by the swelling equilibrium parameter Q. The biodegradation properties of the dextran-based hydrogel microspheres were assessed by the surface morphology before and after biodegradation. Results:Microspheres of dex-GMA in the size(diameter) of 20 to 80 ?m with good configuration were produced. Q value of the microspheres with the diameter of 20-30 ?m was 10.9?3.3,that of those with 70-80 ?m 8.9?6.4.Stirring speed, span-80(emulsifer) quantity and the proportion of dex-GMA affected the size of the microspheres. rhBMP2 was enveloped into the microspheres. Complete degradation of the microspheres was observed during 20 to 40 days at 37 ℃ in normal saline. Conclusion: Dex-GMA hydrogel microspheres may be a release controlling system for rhBMP2 delivery.

Objective To explore the methods in repairing the thenar wounds by microsurgical technique Methods Since 1989, thenar wounds were restored with transfer of superficial or deep palmar arch, recombine of thenar muscle flap Patch of nerve and transplantation of flap on 21 cases Results The thumb and flap were survived The two point discrimination was 5 to 10 mm The thenar muscle streugth reached MRC 4 with satisfactory oppones fuction Conclusion The thenal wounds cna be obtained good effect being repaired by microsurgical technique

Objective To study the possibility of fetal cardiac rhabdomyoma diagnosed by ultrasonography,and the relationship between the fetal cardiac rhabdomyoma and family tuberous sclerosis. Methods High resolution ultrasonic equipment with fetal cardiac software was used. The main cross section of four chamber view was studied mainly. The location, the number of the tumor and the outflow tract of left and right ventricular cordis were scanned carefully, the maternal abdominal scan was performed as well. Results Five cases of fetal cardiac rhabdomyoma were found by routine prenatal ultrasonography, and were confirmed by autopsy. Among them, one case were associated with maternal tuberous sclerosis. Conclusions Fetal cardiac rhabdomyoma associated with tuberous sclerosis. Fetus with cardiac rhabdomyoma frequently die of cardiac failure; since the prognosis of the tuberous sclerosis with neural sclerosis was very poor, when the fetal cardiac rhabdomyoma was detected prenatally, the possibility of tuberous sclerosis should be considered, also relative examination must be performed to the mother to decrease the perinatal mortality.

ObjectiveTo evaluate the effect of ultrasound guided radiofrequency ablation (RFA) on malignant liver tumors.Methods82 patients of primary liver cancer and 49 patients of metastatic liver cancer with a total of 226 cancer foci underwent percutaneous ultrasound guided RFA.ResultsCT performed 1 day～1 month post treatment showed a complete ablation in 203(90%) nodules. One hundred and six patients were followed up for 3～26 months, the survival rate of 3, 6 months and 1 year was 98 1%(104/106), 85 7%(72/84) and 73 7%(42/57), respectively. The major post RFA complications occurred in 6 cases(4 6%) including hemorrhage, hepatic abscess, bile leak, and cholecystitis with no mortality.ConclusionUltrasound guided RFA for the treatment of malignant hepatic tumors has the advantage of good palliative results, easy compliance by the patients, and enabling repeated therapy.

Objective To study the morphological changes, human bitemarks were made on the living and dead canine skin. Method The changing patterns of the human bitemarks were recorded with morphological parameters measured. The relationships among the patterns of the bitemark, tooth area, time, ocdusal force, tooth width and thickness were analyzed by multiple progressive regression. Results The multiple progressive regression equations of the morphological changes of human bitemark were established: S=-6.96-1.68?10 2T-0.11F +2.21W+3.75H(Live dog test,T

Objective Digital analysis of human bitemarks by blind method was assessed for its accura-cy. Method Digital analysis was used in double-blind method for identification of human bitemarks with control samples from 8 suspects. Photoshop 5.5 generates an overlay from bitemarks scanned and various coefficients were submitted for analysis by AutoCAD R14 engineering software to compare bitemarks with denture of suspects. Results Digital analysis shows that bitemarks tally with cast of denture from "suspects" in every coefficient. Conclusion Digital analysis is feasible for identification of experimental bitemarks and promises sound prospects in future forensic practice.
