Objective To assess the ultrasonographic detection of nuchal translucency or nuchal edema in identifying chromosomally abnormal fetuses.Methods Fetal nuchal translucency thickness was measured between 10～14 weeks of gestation,or nuchal fold thickness after 14 weeks,with serial follow-up ultrasound examinations.Results In a 2-year period,12 aneuploid fetuses had been identified,together with 5 fetuses of normal karyotype but fatal prognosis.Compared with the fetuses of increased nuchal translucency but normal karyotype and normal follow-up,they had a much thicker nuchal translucency in the first trimester (average 6.1 mm vs 3.6 mm),and in most cases the nuchal translucency evolved into nuchal edema in the second trimester,with other abnormalities detected by ultrasound.Conclusions Detection of increased nuchal translucency by ultrasound is effective in detecting chromosomally abnormal fetuses or fetuses with other abnomalities,and the changes of nuchal translucency observed by follow-up ultrasound may play an important role in differential diagnosis and predicting the prognosis.

0.6. Conclusions Ultrasonography plays an important role in the diagnosis and conservative therapy of pregnancy within a cesarean delivery scar with placenta increta.

50%,0-patent lumen.Those legs with dominant crural arterial lesion (gradeⅠ,Ⅱor Ⅲ) on at least one segments and without femoropopliteal arterial obstructions were selected.Results Totally 75 legs were involved.There were 53 legs( 70.7%) with only 1 main artery damaged,14 legs( 18.7%) with 2 main arteries damaged,and 8 legs( 10.6%) with all 3 main arteries damaged.Among the 5 arterial segments,the anterior tibial arterial lesions were found most frequently ( 73.3%,55/75),in which the segmental occlusion (gradeⅡ) was the most common type.The peroneal arterial lesions appeared least ( 20.0%,15/75).In the damaged main arteries,1/3 anterior tibial-dorsal arteries and 1/5 posterior tibial arteries had greatly improved distal vascularity compared with their proximal and middle portion,owing to the collateral arteries around the ankle.Statistical analysis showed that there was close relationship between the blood flow damage of the distal portion of the posterior tibial arterial segments (medial trans-ankle flow) and the peroneal artery with the clinical ischemic manifestations.Conclusions The dominant occlusive crural arterial lesions and the collateral arteries can be well imaged and diagnosed by color Doppler ultrasonography,which is helpful in providing accurate information of the blood supply of the distal part of the lower extremity.

Objective:To explore the Immunoprotection of gastric mucosa in newborn mice after oral immunization with inactived H.pylori.Methods:Thirty-two BALB/c mice were randomly divided into four groups, including PBS control group ( groupⅠ) ,the group of inactivated H.pylori ( groupⅡ) , the group of inactivated H.pylori and Escherichia cole heat-labile enterotoxin B subunit( LTB) ( groupⅢ) ,and normal group( groupⅣ).Newborn BLAB/c mice within 24 hours were immunized through oral gavage with corresponding antigen,Two weeks after final immunization,the mice were challenged with 1×108CFU live H.pylori strain SS1, twice once day,for 2 days.The twenty-eighth day post-challenge,all of mice were sacrificed and stomachs were removed for grades of in-flammation and The counting of H.pylori colonizing.Results:The mean scores of stomach tissue inflammation of groupⅠ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ andⅣwere 2.25±0.46,2.12±0.35,1.5±0.53,0.25±0.46,respectively,and the score of inflammatory activity of the above four groups were 2.12±0.35,2.12±0.35,1.37±0.52,0.25±0.46.Among these four groups,the results were statistically significant between any two groups except the result between groupⅠand groupⅡ.Finally,H.pylori colonization quantity in the stomachs of groupⅢwas lower than groupⅠand group Ⅱ( P<0.05 ) , as expected, the H.pylori colonization was undetectable in group Ⅳ.Conclusion: The oral gavage with inactived H.pylori plus LTB to newborn mice may be associate with the lightening of inflammation and the decrease of H.pylori colonizing number.

Objective To investigate the correlation of ultrasonographic characteristics and pathologic features for malignant mullerian mixed tumor(MMMT)and determine the diagnostic value of ultrasonography.Methods The uItrasonographic features of 10 MMMTs were analyzed retrospectively and the sonographic findings were compared with histological results and discussed the correlation.Results The morphologic features of US and histology were well associated.Large,solitary lesion,ill-defined irregular shape,honeycombed heterogenous echo-pattern,scattered cystic areas and increased irregular peripheral/internal color flow were typical US findings.Logistic regression analysis showed the type of tumor liquefaction to be the most significant independent predictor of vascularity.Conclusions Ultrasonography is helpful for the diagnosis of MMMT,the uhrasonographic characteristics of MMMT are well correlated to its pathologic features.

Objective To assess the value of intraoperative ultrasonography during the uterus septum resection under a hysteroscope.MethodsThe uterus septum resection was performed under the guidance of transabdominal ultrasonography by using a hysteroscope in 30 patients.The operative procedure and the position of the hysteroscope were monitored,and the depth of the dissection and thickness of the myometrium in the fundus uteri were measured with transabdominal ultrasound during the operation.ResultsThe thickness between the incisal surface and serosal layer in the fundus uteri was within the normal limits in 28 cases.In 2 cases,the tissue was over-ectomized.The position of the urethral catheter balloon was correct in all of the 30 cases.Three months after the procedure,reexamination by transvaginal ultrasonography showed that the uterine cavity was normal in the patients.ConclusionsIntraoperative ultrasonography is quick,safe and precise for monitoring uterus septum resection.It is valuable for establishing surgical strategy and reducing operative complications.

Objective To evaluate the treatment of traumatic posterior urethral atresia in boys via a modified transperineal approach. Methods The transperineal approach was adepted in 11 cases with transecting the central perineal teadon, excising the ligaments of arcuate pubis and the traumatic scar, so that end-to-end anastomosis of urethra could be achieved with good exposure. Results 10 cases were cured after the first operation, where as one patient needed the procedure for 3 times. Conclusions The modified transperineal approach provide a good exposure for the anastomosis of urethra in boys.
