2.Acute massive thromboembolism after pulmonary wedge resection treated with open embolectomy:a case report
Journal of Peking University(Health Sciences) 2004;0(02):-
Acute massive pulmonary thromboembolism after pneumonectomy usually results in death if not diagnosed early and treated aggressively.It was a case of acute embolism in the main pulmonary ar-tery with thrombus following right pulmonary wedge resection.Diagnosis was made clinically and with computerized tomography before emergency surgery.Thromboembolectomy was successfully performed on cardiopulmonary bypass and the patient was subsequently discharged home after uneventful recovery.Al-though the patient had no previous history of thrombosis,he took high dose of warfarin for anticoagulating postoperatively,which suggested that the patient with pulmonary embolism attack may be associated with the hypercoagulable state of his own.

Chinese Journal of Minimally Invasive Surgery 2001;0(01):-
Objective To evaluate the efficacy of endovascular stent-graft placement for the treatment of Debakey Ⅲ type aortic dissection. Methods From June 2001 to July 2006, 31 patients with Debakey Ⅲ type aortic dissection were diagnosed by contrast-enhanced CT scan. Vascular access was obtained through the right or left femoral artery after arteriotomy and stent-graft was deployed into the true lumen to occlude the primary entry tear. Immediate aortography was performed after the procedure and the follow-up data of CT scan were evaluated. Results Stent-graft deployment was successfully performed in all the patients. Immediate aortography after the procedure showed no leakage in 27 patients and minor leakage in 4. After the operation, one patient showed paraplegia, and one developed left arm ischemia. No stent movement or organ ischemia was found at the early postoperative stage in the other patients. Six months after the operation, in all the 31 patients, contrast-enhanced CT scan showed the disappearance of the false lumen and thrombosis at the level of the stent; and the minor leakage of was improved in the 4 patients. Four years after the operation, one patient developed severe internal leakage at the approximal end of the stent, and was treated by thoracotomy. Conclusions Endovascular stent-graft placement is effective for the treatment of Debakey Ⅲ type aortic dissection. However, further studies are needed to evaluate its long-term outcomes.

The paper was aimed to review the modeling methods of spleen-yang deficiency, which can be classified into imitating traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) etiology methods and modern medicine methods. At present, methods of modeling were not generally accepted and the main presented problems were as follows. Modern medicine methods did not conformed to the rules of TCM etiology and pathogenesis. The evaluation of yang deficiency models was not accurate. Some modeling methods can lead to other diseases at the same time. The names of spleen deficiency model were not unified. It was difficult to distinguish the modeling methods of spleen-yang deficiency and spleen-qi deficiency, and etc. Model evaluation of spleen-yang deficiency was various. However, the domestic standard evaluation system had not been formed. The main model evaluation problems were as follows. Macro symptoms of the model lacked of objective and quantitative evaluation. It lacked of evaluation indexes of pulse and tongue with TCM characteristics. The disproof of prescription selection was not unified. Similar syndromes had not been ruled out. The microscopic indexes were fragmented, and etc. This paper reviewed on animal modeling methods of spleen-yang deficiency.

This paper introduces the development and application of health-related quality of life (HRQOL) scales in research on coronary heart disease (CHD). Currently, the scales for CHD patients have been more systematically developed and widely used in foreign countries, while domestically in China, they are developed successfully but problematically; research in this field has started later and the scales introduced are limited and not suitable for the entire range of domestic CHD patients. Thus, this paper introduces 26 HRQOL scales in research on CHD, including five generic scales, ten disease-specific scales from abroad and eleven scales originating from China. With the deficiency of HRQOL scales, especially that in traditional Chinese medicine and specific scales, this paper analyzes and summarizes the problems existing in development of scales. The authors also provide solutions in order to help the development and application of scales in further studies.

ObjectiveTo investigate the efficacy and toxicity of postoperative radiochemotherapy compared with chemotherapy alone in the treatment of locally advanced gastric cancer.MethodsA total of 83 patients with resected adenocarcinoma of the stomach were randomly assigned to postoperative radiochemotherapy group (RCT) ( n =43 ) or chemotherapy alone group (CT) ( n =40 ).Patients in RCT group received radiotherapy concurrent with capecitabine chemotherapy then followed by 4 - 6 cycles of FOLFOX4 chemotherapy.The total dose of radiation was 45 Gy.The dose of capecitabine was 1600 mg/m2per day.In the CT group,patients received 6 - 8 cycles FOLFOX4 chemotherapy.Survival was analyzed using Kaplan-Meier method and Logrank test. Results The follow-up rate was 96%. The number of patients who had a minimum of 2-,3-year follow-up time were 37,12 in the RCT group and 31,10 in the CT group.The 1-,2-,3-year local control rates for RCT and CT groups were 100%,97%,94% and 95%,87%,73% (x2 =4.54,P =0.033),respectively.The 1-,2-,3-year survival rates were 98%,86%,81% in the RCT group,with 93%,80%,64% in the CT group ( x2 =3.96,P =0.047 ).The incidence of grade 3hematological toxicity in the RCT and CT group was 23% vs 15% ( x2 =0.93,P =0.630 ),and grade 3gastrointestinal toxicity was 16% vs 10% ( x2 =0.95,P =0.624 ). Conclusions Compared with chemotherapy alone,postoperative radiochemotherapy can improve survival of locally advanced gastric cancer patients with acceptable toxicities.

Objective To analyze the natural development of the residual subluxation after early close reduction for developmental dislocation of the hip,and to seek the early surgical timing and indication.Methods The research included 36 patients (48 hips) born before January 2000 who showed residual subluxation after close reduction in one year.All of patients had serial X-ray radiographs at every follow-up point.The radiographs were assessed using acetabular index (AI),Reimers index,center edge (CE) angle and the orientation of the sourcil of the acetabulum.The last follow-up results were evaluated according to the Severin classification,and Severin grade Ⅰ and Ⅱ were defined as satisfactory group and Severin grade Ⅲ and Ⅳ as unsatisfactory group.Then we compared and analyzed the serial radiological parameters between satisfactory and unsatisfactory groups.Results The mean age at close reduction was 1.6 years.At the last follow-up,the mean age was 13.8 years.The satisfactory group comprised 18 hips (37%),whereas the unsatisfactory group comprised 30 hips (63%).At the age of three to four years,there was a significant difference between the two groups in the Reimers index (34.4%±4.5% vs.43.0%±4.6%,P < 0.05).And at four to five years old,there were significant differences for both Reimers index and CE angle (29.3% ±7.2% vs.40.0%±6.2%,P < 0.05; 21.0°±5.5° vs.10.6°±5.2°,P < 0.05).When the Reimers index >38% at the age of three to four years,18 of 18 hips fell into the unsatisfactory group.And when Reimers index >33% at the age of four to five years,26 of 30 hips had unsatisfactory result,and in addition to that the sourcil orientation was upward,26 of 26 hips fell into the unsatisfactory group.Conclusion To avoid early osteoarthritis,surgical correction for residual subluxation was recommended if the Reimers index >38% at the age of three to four years or the Reimers index >33% with the sourcil upward at the age of four to five years.

Objective To retrospectively review long?term results of developmental dislocation of the hip patients treated with open reduction and Salter pelvic osteotomy, and to analyze the potential risk factors. Methods Sixty?eight developmental dislocation of the hip cases (81 hips) were treated with open reduction and Salter pelvic osteotomy from September 1992 to Octo?ber 2002, 45 cases (52 hips) were followed up to skeletal maturity. None had undergone other treatment before the key surgery. Some cases received skeleton traction before surgery. The radiographic and functional results were assessed at last follow?up. The possible relevant factors for unsatisfactory outcome were analyzed. The correlation between type ⅡAVN and the coverage rate of the femoral head were evaluated. Results The mean age at surgery was 2.5 years (ranged from 1.4 to 5.3 years). At last follow?up, 44 hips (84.6%) had excellent or good functional results. 23 hips (44.2%) had avascular necrosis of varying severity, of which 16 hips were typeⅡ. There was significant relevance between the AVN severity and the Severin classification result (P=0.018). Theover correctionhips, that were overcorrected during surgery, were more likely to get severe type AVN ( P=0.037). There was no correlation between TypeⅡAVN with uncoverage according to CE angle and Reimers index (P=0.457, 0.308 respectively). Con?clusion 1) Satisfactory functional and radiographic results could be expected in developmental dislocation of the hip cases with?out AVN;2) High risk of AVN existed in the late diagnosised hips that underwent open reduction and Salter pelvic osteotomy, typeⅡwas the most common type;3) TypeⅡAVN was not a predictor for progressive femoral head coverage deficiency;4)Over cor?rectionin Salter pelvic osteotomy was related with severe type AVN which should be avoided.
