Objective To investigate the CT imaging features of pancreatic fatty replacement and its clinical significance. Methods Three patients with pancreatic fatty replacement detected by CT were retrospectively analyzed. CT examination included plain scan and contrast-enhanced scanning at the arterial and portal venous phases. The shape, size, density, pancreatic lobulation and interlobular spaces, course of the pancreatic duct were carefully observed. The clinic and laboratory data were also analyzed to determine the clinical significance of pancreatic fatty replacement. Results ①Imaging features: Two patients had complete fatty replacement involving the entire pancreas, another one had most fatty replacement sparing the posterior aspect of head and tail. Two patients had regular configuration of pancreas. The size of pancreas was slightly enlarged in 2 patients. Lobular atrophy and widening of interlobular spaces were present in all 3 patients. The pancreatic duct was normal in 3 patients. ②Clinic findings: Chronic diarrhea was present in 3 patients. Two patiens had diabetes (one had chronic cholangitis with choledochal lithiasis), another one had small stone in the common bile duct. Serum lipase was low in 3 patients, of which one had low serum amylase. Conclusion Pancreatic fatty replacement demonstrates certain characteristic CT appearances, and is usually associated with disturbances of both the endocrine and exocrine functions of the pancreas.

BACKGROUND: Compound antitumor coral hydroxyapatite (CCHA) has a good delayed-release and anti-tumor effect. However, whether the high-dose drug contained in the CCHA influences normal induction, conduction and growth of bone tissues at the implant site is unclear.OBJECTIVE: To establish an osteogenesis model of CCHA and to investigate the osteogensis effect and rule of self-made CCHA in vivo. METHODS: Implants of CCHA (20%CDDP-CHA w/w) and CHA(control, 0% CDDP w/w) were implanted into the metaphyseal holes of rabbit femur. X-rays and decalcified histological section of rabbit femoral bone with hematoxylin and eosin staining were used regularly to investigate the degradation of CCHA and CHA, and how bone tissues grow at the implant site. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: After implantation, CHA crystals were faster than CCHA in connecting with surrounding bone tissues and forming bone bridges. The borderlines of implanted CHA became obscure in 4 weeks. Loose connective tissues were found in pores of the CHA and osteoblasts were growing on the surface. Bone tissues of the surrounding gradually grew into the CHA, finally repaired the bone defects. At the beginning of implantation, CCHA mainly inhibited the growth of surrounding tissues until 6-12 weeks later, normal bone tissues gradually grew into pores of CCHAs, and healed bone defects at 26 weeks. CCHA can inhibit the osteogenesis effects at early stage; however, it can achieve bone healing with surrounding bone defect ultimately.

Objective To evaluate the outcome of surgical approaches in patients of gastric cancer with portal hypertension.Methods The clinical data of 80 patients with portal hypertension undergoing curative surgery for gastric cancer or simultaneous surgery for portal hypertension were retrospectively analyzed.Results The radical gastrectomy alone had no tremendous impact on postoperative liver function.But simultaneous surgery for portal hypertension affected patients' liver function dramatically (P =0.018).For those who underwent surgery for portal hypertension simultaneously,the incidence of complications in Child B patients was much higher than that in Child A patients (P =0.018).However,the incidence of complications did not differ between Child A and B patients who underwent radical gastrectomy alone.In addition,patients undergoing simultaneous surgery for portal hypertension had more severe complications than those who underwent radical gastrectomy only (P =0.042).Age > 50 (P =0.012),tumor stage (P =0.015),and simultaneous surgery for portal hypertension (P =0.007) were the independent risk factors for postoperative liver dysfunction.The survival time of patients undergoing simultaneous surgery for portal hypertension was significantly shorter than that of patients undergoing radical gastrectomy only (in Child A patients,P =0.009,in Child B patients,P =0.000).Conclusions Individualized surgical approaches for the treatment of gastric cancer with portal hypertension should be decided by preoperative liver function.Simultaneous management of portal hypertension was not recommended.
