Objective To assess the role of muhi-detector row CT (MDCT) in preoperative evaluation of living renal donors. Methods The data of 104 potential donors who underwent MDCT were retrospectively analyzed. All the candidates underwent 64-MDCT examination. First,unenhanced scans were performed on the kidneys. After administration of Ⅳ contrast medium,enhanced CT images of the arterial phase, venous phase, and excretory phase were obtained. The enhanced scan scope was from the top of diaphragmatic muscle to pubic symphysis. The scanning data obtained was post-processed for reconstructed images. The anatomy and variations displayed in MDCT images on kidneys, ureters, arteries and veins were recorded. The findings in surgery constituted the standard of reference for imaging findings, and the recorded results from images were compared with the findings in surgery to assess the role of MDCT in evaluation of potential donors. Results MDCT examination was successfully performed on 104 candidates. Anomalies of kidneys and ureters were found in 8 donors before surgery. The prevalence of accessory arteries and early branching in image was 27. 2 % (28/103) and 12. 6 % (13/103) respectively. There were 3 candidates with double veins and 3 with retroaortie left renal vein found in preoperative assessment. Ninety-three candidates underwent successful donor nephreetomy. The anomalies and variations of kidneys and ureters in images were all confirmed surgically. The detection rate of the accessory renal artery (ARA) was 80 %. The ARAs measuring > 1 mm in diameter and early branching were all detected by MDCT.The findings of veins found in performed sides coincided with those of MDCT images. Conclusion MDCT can accurately assess the anatomic information and variations of the donors' kidneys, and facilitate triaging donors and planning operation proposal

objective To compare cardiac function early after cardiac valve replacement with and without atrial fibrillation radiofrequency ablation(RFA).Methods Thirty-eight patients who underwent RFA Cox-Maze Ⅳ procedure combined with rheumatic valve replacement were discharged as cured from March 2007 to August 2009 (RFA group). Their postoperative recovery time, troponin T (cTnT) and ultrasonic cardiogram data were compared with those of 38 patients with atrial fibrillation matchad for age,sex, preoperative NYHA class and types of rheumatic valve replacement (control group). Results Although the cardiopulmonary bypass time and aortic cross-clamping time of RFA group were longer [( 152.8 ± 46.1 ),(91.0 ± 26.1 ) min] than those of control group [( 104.7 ± 40.8), (68.0 ± 30.3) min] (P < 0.01 ), the postoperative recovery time and perioperative changes of LVEF of both groups were similar. Compared with control group, the RFA group's postoperative elevated cTnT was more marked [( 1.8 ± 0.6) μ g/L vs.(0.8 ±0.4) μg/L],their left atrial diameters was generally decreased (P<0.05). Among them who underwent combined aortic and mitral valve replacement had increased posterior wall thickness of left ventricle and decreased fractional shortening. Conclusions Compared to patients having simple valve replacement, those undergoing valve replacement with RFA Cox-Maze Ⅳ procedure have generally better recovery of cardiac function early after operation, may have more potential threaten, and more attention should be paied to their perioperative myocardial preservation and preventive maintenance of cardiac function.

Objective To analyze the causes for diffuse bone marrow uptake of 18F-FDG on PET/CT scans. Methods Sixty-six patients with diffuse bone marrow uptake on whole-body FDG-PET/CT imaging were enrolled for this study. Seventy-nine healthy subjects ( with no history of tumor or recent fever) were selected as normal control. The SUVmax and SUVmean were measured in bone marrow and mediastinum in both groups. The maximum (bone marrow SUVmax/ mediastinum SUVmax) and mean value ratios (bone marrow SUVmean/ mediastinum SUVmean) were calculated. Statistical analysis was performed by one-factor variance analysis. Results With diffuse bone marrow uptake pattern of 18F-FDG, 27 were caused by injection of hematopoietic growth factor, 21 by hematopathy and 18 due to fever. SUVmeanof those three causes were 3.076±1.955, 3.633±2.405 and 2.546±0.791 respectively, each was significantly different from that of the control group (1.026±0.190; F =34.465, P<0.001). Conclusion Diffuse bone marrow uptake on FDG-PET/CT are caused by both benign and malignant reasons.
