BACKGROUND:Titanium materials have high mechanical strength, stable physical properties, good biocompatibility, and excelent corrosion resistance, which can be safely used in humans. OBJECTIVE:To compare the safety of mesh-like titanium aloy steel plateversus wire mesh in the repair of chest wal defects. METHODS:Eighteen patients with chest wal defects, 11 males and 7 females, with an age range of 19-65 years, were enroled. The 9 of 18 patients were subjected to repair with mesh-like titanium aloy steel plate, and the other 9 patients underwent wire mesh repair. At 1 week after repair, visual analog scale scores were measured in the two groups, and patient’s satisfaction on the thoracic appearance and incidence of complications were surveyed during the folow-up. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Al patients were folowed up for 1-7 years. During the folow-up, X-ray review displayed good thoracic stability and no fracture of titanium plate and wire mesh. Patients recovered wel from respiratory dysfunction, with unapparent chest wal deformity and high satisfaction rate of the thoracic appearance. Moreover, compared with the wire mesh group, the satisfaction rate of the thoracic appearance was significantly higher (P< 0.05), but the incidence of complications was significantly lower in the titanium plate group (P < 0.05). At 1 week after repair, the visual analog scale scores had no difference between the two groups (P> 0.05). These findings indicate that the mesh-like titanium plate has good biocompatibility and safety to effectively maintain the stability of the chest wal.

Mouse AtlasTM cDNA Arrays were used for comparative studies of gene expression in mouse embryonic fibroblasts (MEF) before and after in vitro cultivation and 24 types of differentially expressed genes were identified. To screen and identify the differentially expressed new genes of MEF, cDNA suppression subtractive hybridization (SSH) technique was used. The cDNAs derived from cultured MEF after SSH were subcloned into pGEM T easy vectors to set up the subtractive library, transfected into E. coli strain JM109, sequenced and analyzed with bio informatics methods after PCR amplification.Altogether 42 types differentially expressed genes and 3 novel ESTs were identified and categorized from total 128 ESTs derived from cultured MEF after SSH. It is suggested that the genes expressed by MEF were the important molecular basis supporting the survival, proliferation and self renewal capacities of embryonic stem cells.

Objective To study the molecular mechanism of the apoptosis in rat tubular epithelial cells induced by albumin in vitro.Methods The cultured rat renal tubular epithelial cells were incubated with 20 mg/ml delipidated and endotoxin-free bovine serum albumin(BSA) for 2,6,12 and 24 h respectively.The NF-?B activity was assessed by electrophonetic mobility shift assay(EMSA) and the osteopontin(OPN) mRNA expression was analyzed by reverse transcription-polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR).The cell apoptosis was evaluated by flow cytometry.Results The rate of apoptosis was increased when the cultured rat renal tubular epithelial cells were incubated with 20 mg/ml BSA for 2,6,12 and 24 h respectively.The NF-?B activity and expression of OPN were up-regulated in the cultured rat renal tubular epithelial cells with the treatment of BSA,with significant difference compared with those of the control group(P

Objective To improve the diagnosis and treatment of adenocarcinoma of bladder. Methods The data of 20 cases of adenocarcinoma of bladder from 1986 to 2004 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients underwent operation and the diagnosis was proven by histopathologic examination. Results Eighteen cases were primary adenocarcinoma of bladder,8 cases applied to radical cystectomy and 10 cases partial cystectomy. Two cases were urachal adenocarcinoma,and received extended partial cystectomy.Seventeen patients were followed up for 3 months to 5 years. The one-year survival rate was 52.9% (9/17),two-year survival rate 41.2% (7/17),and five-year survival rate 29.4% (5/17). Conclusion Radical total cystectomy is the best choice for primary adenocarcinoma of bladder and extended partial cystectomy for urachal adenocarcinoma. Radiotherapy and chemotherapy after operation can improve the treatment effect.

Objective To explore a new method of parapancreatic abscess treatment and establish an idea of minimally invasive technologies for parapancreatic abscess to improve the recovery rate of acute pancreatitis. Methods The patients had experienced percutaneous puncture and placed drainage tube under the ultrasound guidance first, then the sinus tract was expanded gradually to 24F perimeter by Cook's fascia expender. Finally, the necrotic tissue and pyogenic membrane was removed and repeatedly washed under guidance of choledochoscopy. Results The recovery rate was 91.1 %(33/36). The complication incidence was 10.7% (hemorrage:2 cases, external intestinal fistula:3 cases, and fatal MOF: 1 case). Conclusions The viewpoint which parapancreatic abscess only can be cured by drainage operation can be changed by associating debridement by choledochoscope with percutaneous puncture drainage under the ultrasound guidance. It is a simple, safe and effective method. It can be used to reduce the patients' damage, complication and mortality and accomplish the idea of damage control by minimally invasive technologies.

Objective To discuss the imaging features of the localized fibrous tumor of pleura(LFTP).Methods 10 cases of LFTPproved patholgically were underwent CT scanning,while MRI scanning was performed in 3 cases.The imaging findings of LFTP wereanalysed.Results 9 cases were benign tumors and 1 case was malignant tumor.The main CT manifestations were single soft tissue massadhering to the pleural surface,clearly boundary,homogeneous or unhomogeneous density,obvious homogeneous or non-uniformityenhancement."Pleura mass hat"was characteristic appearance located the pleura mass.The mass formed acute angle or obtuse angle with the adjacent pleura,which was related to mass size and shape.MRI manifestations were hypointense or isointense on T_1WI and T_2WI,non-uniformity signal.1 case of giant LFTP showed scattered in disorder and clutter signal on T_2WI.Inside tumor peduncle of the giant LFTP was connected with the pericardium.Conclusion CT is a main imaging diagnostic technique for LFTP,while MRI is commonly superior to CT in localizing the mass and showing inner characteristics for the bigger pleural masses.The appearance of pleuraL tumor peduncle is an important sign in diagnosis of LFTP.

Objective To assess the efficacy and safety of transurethral bipolar plasmakinetic resection of benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH). Methods A total of 45 cases of BPH were treated by transurethral bipolar plasmakinetic resection of prostate (PKRP) and were followed up for 3-10 months.Results The weight of the resected prostate was 28-105 g with an average of (47?16) g, the operation time was 15-120 min with an average of (50?12) min. No case needed blood transfusion during the operation and no transurethral resection syndrome occurred. The mean catheterization time was 4 d and the mean postoperative hospital stay was 7 d. Peak urine flow increased from (7.3?1.5) ml/s to (16.2?4. 4) ml/s and IPSS decreased from (27.6?1.3) to (5.8?1.0) in 3 months postoperatively. Conclusion Transurethral bipolar plasmakinetic resection of prostate is effective and safe with less complications.

Objective To expand the utilization of minimally invasive technologies for parapancreatic abscess,and summarize the application experience of choledochoscope for treatment of parapancreatic abscess.Methods The clinical data and treatment effectiveness of 36 patients with parapancreatic abscess from Dec.2000 to Dec.2008 were analyzed retrospectively.These patients had experienced percutaneous puncture and been placed drainage tube under the ultrasound guidance first,then expanded the sinus tract gradually,and performed debridement by choledochoscope.The flexibility of choledochoscope was used to remove the necrotic tissue and pyogenic membrane repeatedly by clamping,netting and vacuum aspiration in every domain.Results Thirty-six patients were performed percutaneous puncture and placed drainage tube,3 cases were given canalis singularis,7 cases were double tube,26 cases were over three tube.The debridement times were 3-14 by choledochoscope,average 5.6 times.There were 6 cases with improving systemic symptoms,blood routine and temperature recovering normal,and drink and food recovering,then discharged from hospital with tube after 1-2 times of debridement.Length of stay was 25-132 d,average 76 d.The curing rate was 91.7% (33/36).Two cases were turned into open surgery because of broad necrotic tissue range combined with many abdominal cavity abscess with good postoperative recovery and cured.One case was dead of severe multiple organ failure combination.There were 2 patients with hemorrhage,3 patients with external intestinal fistula.Conclusions The debridement of choledochoscope for parapancreatic abscess treatment is a simple,flexible and effective method.It changes the viewpoint that parapancreatic abscess can be cured only by operation drainage,decreases the patients’ trauma and accomplishes the idea of damage control by minimally invasive technologies.
