Objective To discuss the feasibility of the lung transplantation as an effective treatment for end-stage pulmonary diseases domestically and to compare the major issues involving the practice of lung transplantation domestically and overseas.Methods After the foundation of group of lung transplantation in May 2002, lung transplantation models of porcine were set up. From September 2002 to April 2005, in the 18 cases undergoing lung transplantation, there were subjected to single-lung transplantion (SLT, 83.3%) and 3 bilateral sequential single lung transplants without CPB (DSSLT, 16.7%). Indications for SLT (n=15) included emphysema (n=9), pulmonary fibrosis (n=3), pneumosilicosis (n=1), lymphangioleiomyomatosis (n=1) and ventricular septal defect (VSD) induced Eisenmenger's syndrome (n=1); for DSSLT (n=3) bronchiectasis (n=1) and pulmonary emphysema (n=2). Among the 15 SLTs, there were 9 cases of left SLT and 6 right SLT. Among them, 2 cases shared one same donor's lung block, one case received contralateral lung transplantation―a left donor lung implanted in the recipient’s right thorax, and one case simultaneous right SLT and VSD repair. Results In hospital mortality (HM) was 3/18 ( 16.7%). Among SLTs, early death was due to severe rejection on the 30th postoperative day in one patient and acute rejection on the 15th postoperative day in other patients, and another patient died due to pulmonary vein embolism on the 36th day. There were 3 and 2 patients with the survival time longer than 1 and 2 years respectively. The median overall survival was 10 (2 to 32) months. Conclusions Our LT program shows similar results to those reported by the International Society for Heart and Lung Transplantation for developed countries. The key of successful operation depends on the establishment of group of lung transplantation and cooperation of multi-department. Ischemic-reperfusion injury, acute-rejection and infection are the major reasons of deaths shortly after the operations.

Objective To investigate the impact of pancreatic duct stenting as a preventive measure for post-ERCP pancreatitis in patients with repeatedly non-selective pancreatic duct cannulation.Methods Clinical data of 64 patients with biliary tract disease from January 2008 to December 2015 was prospective analyzed. All the patients were randomly divided into observation group and control group. Patients in observation group received pancreatic stent placement, while patients in control group was not received pancreatic stent placement and nasal duct. Postoperative monitoring items included abdominal pain, blood amylase. Then record and compare the incidence of acute pancreatitis, pancreatitis severity rating, abdominal pain score, Ranson score, amylase recovery time between the two groups.Results Observation group had ifve cases of PEP, the rate was 15.6 %, including mild four cases (12.5 %), medium one case (3.1 %); the control group had 13 cases of PEP, the rate was 40.6 %, including mild six cases (18.8 %), medium four cases (12.5 %), severe three cases (9.4 %). PEP observation group was signiifcantly lower than the control group (P < 0.05). Mild, medium and severe PEP were lower than the control group, in which the severe PEP was signiifcantly lower than the control group (P < 0.05). Ranson score of the observation group was (1.2 ± 0.4), significantly lower than the control group (2.5 ± 1.2) (P < 0.05); the observation group amylase average recovery time was (3.0 ± 0.6) d, it is also signiifcantly lower than the control group (5.8 ± 1.4) d (P < 0.01). No bleeding and perforation complications occurred.Conclusion Pancreatic stenting can effectively prevent the incidence of PEP, reduce postoperative pain, improve patient recovery.

Objective To study the imaging features and the cause of the cystic meningiomas so as to avoid the misdiagnosis and improve the understanding and knowledge. Methods CT and MRI features in 27 pathologically proved cystic meningiomas were analyzed. There were 10 men and 17 women, and the age ranged from 16 to 80 years with the average age of 49 years. Twenty-six patients were examined by using MRI (24 with enhanced scan), and 15 patients by CT (seven with enhanced scan). 15 patients were examined by both CT and MRI. The image features were analyzed according to Nauta and were compared with operative and pathological findings. Results The cystic meningiomas were mostly epithelial type, but fibrous type, angiomatous type, or papillary type may also be seen. Mostly, the locations were cerebral convexity, but tumors of the tentorium, alisphenoid, olfactory groove, and skull base were also seen. And all were sessile. On imaging, most tumors were parenchymatous with cystic parts, and marked enhancement of the parenchymatous part could be seen. Some were entirely cystic with parenchymatous nodule, the nodule enhanced markedly and the wall of the cyst may be or not be enhanced. Of the 27 cases, four cases were NautaⅠ, seven cases were NautaⅡ, one case was Nauta Ⅲ, and ten cases were Nauta Ⅳ. Three were both Nauta Ⅱand Ⅲ in 3 cases, Nauta Ⅱ, Ⅲ, and Ⅳ in 1 and both Nauta Ⅲ and Ⅳ in 1, respectively. Conclusion The cystic meningiomas have characteristic imaging features. CT and MRI, especially MRI, are valuable in the diagnosis.

Objective To observe the clinical efficacy and safety of Chushi Huowei Decoction in treating inflammation of gastric relict of spleen-stomach damp heat type. Methods Totally 62 patients with inflammation of gastric relict were divided into treatment group and control group with random number table, 31 patients in each group. The control group was given hydrotalcite and the treatment group was treated by adding of Chushi Huowei Decoction. After eight-week treatment, the clinical efficacy, gastric mucosal lesions efficacy, and gastric mucosal pathology efficacy of the two groups were compared. Results Eight-weeks later, traditional Chinese medicine symptom scores of both groups were obviously lower than those before treatment (P<0.01). And the decrease in the treatment group was more obvious than that in the control group (P<0.01). Curative effects of gastric mucosal lesions and pathologic condition in treatment group were better than those in the control group (P<0.05, P<0.01). Neither groups had any adverse reaction. Conclusion Chushi Huowei Decoction has reliable therapeutic effect and safety in treating inflammation of gastric relict of spleen-stomach damp heat type.
