Objective To explore the method of repairing foot soft tissue defects by using island skin flaps pedicled with sural nerves and vessels. Methods 24 patients with foot soft tissue defects were treated surgically. The defects were repaired with island skin flaps pedicled with ipsilateral sural nerves and vessels. Results Of all the 24 flaps, 21 flaps survived at the first intention. Partial necrosis appeared in 3 flaps but were cured at the second intention. The follow ups of 1 to 2 years showed that the appearance and function were satisfactory in all the cases except 4 in which the skin appeared swollen. Conclusion To repair foot soft tissue defects, this flap has the advantages of strong anti infection ability and good texture so that healing at the first intention and early functional recovery can be obtained.

Artificial ureter has been studied for nearly 60 years, however it is still in experimental stage. So far there are no commercially available products for clinical use except autologous intestines loop even though many progresses have been made. Each approach for making artificial ureter has its own inherent advantages, disadvantages and limitations. But some approaches have shown great potential to be used as ureteral substitutes. Preventing the conduit from salt depositing and ensuring a watertight anastomoses with native tissues are the key factors in designing and manufacturing the prosthetic ureter. Along with scientific and technical improvement, artificial ureter will be successfully used in clinical therapeuticsin in the very near future.

The effect of hyperestrogenemia induced by intramuscular injectied estradiol (E_2) on myocardial contractility and relaxation was observed in female rats with myocardial infarction (MI). The results showed that: (1) In MI group, the plasma estradiol level increased slyghtly and then droped, while the level of estradiol increased markedly in rats treated by E_2 in MI (MIE_2) group. (2) Diameter of myofibril in MIE_2 grows more than that of control sham operation(CS) and MI (10.65?0.59 VS 7.65?0.40 and 10.15?0.54?m, P

Objective To investigate the effects of emulsified isoflurane preconditioning on lung ischemia-reperfusion (Ⅰ/R) injury in rats.Methods Thirty-two male Sprague-Dawley rats,weighing 250-320 g,were randomly divided into 4 groups (n =8 each) using a random number table:sham operation group (group S),group Ⅰ/R,intralipid group (group IL),and emulsified isoflurane preconditioning group (group EI).Lung Ⅰ/R was produced by clamping the left hilum of lungs for 1 h followed by 2 h of reperfusion in anesthetized rats.In group S,intraperitoneal normal saline 10.5 ml/kg was injected,but the hilum was only exposed 24 h later.In groups Ⅰ/R,IL and EI,intraperitoneal normal saline 10.5 ml/kg,30％ intralipid 10.5 ml/kg and 8％ emulsified isoflurane 10.5 ml/kg were injected intraperitoneally,respectively,and then the model was established 24 h later.At the end of reperfusion,blood samples were collected from the left ventricle for measurement of PaO2,PaCO2,plasma malondialdehyde (MDA) concentration (by ELISA).The rats were then sacrificed,and left lungs were removed immediately for microscopic examination and for determination of myleoperoxidase (MPO) activity (using colorimetric method) in pulmonary specimens.Wet/dry lung weight ratio (W/D ratio) was calculated.Results Compared with group S,W/D ratio,MPO activity,plasma MDA concentration and PaCO2 were significantly increased,and PaO2 was decreased in the other three groups.Compared with group Ⅰ/R,W/D ratio,MPO activity,plasma MDA concentration and PaCO2 were significantly decreased,and PaO2 was increased in IL and EI groups.W/D ratio,MPO activity,plasma MDA concentration and PaCO2 were significantly lower,and PaO2 was higher in group EI than in group IL.The pathological changes of the lung were significantly attenuated in group EI compared with group Ⅰ/R.Conclusion Emulsified isoflurane preconditioning can reduce lung Ⅰ/R injury in rats,and inhibition of pulmonary inflammatory responses and of production of oxygen free radicals are involved in the mechanism.

Objective To determine the clinical value of intraoperative cholangiography in mini-cholecystectomy. Methods The clinical data of 506 patients receiving intraoperative cholangiography in minicholecystectomy from 1992 to 2006 in our hospital were analyzed retrospectively. Results Intr-aoperative cholangiography was successfully completed in 403 patients. The success rate was 97.4%.Stones in the bile duct in 49 patients,abnormal bite duet in 4 patients and bile duct injury in 4 patient were found. The cuts were extended in 16 patients. Conclusion Intraoperative cholangiography is of great value in inducing postoperative complications and improving the quality of MC. Therefore, it can be used to prevent residual stone after operation, avoid bile duct exploration or injury, decrease the chance of extending the cut and make sure of abnormal bile duct.

The idea and methods of study on proteomics have many similarities to the whole view and the dialectical view of TCM,so it confirms with own characteristics of syndromes to introduce proteomics into studies of essence of syndromes.Appling the idea and methods of proteomics to study TCM differentiation of syndromes of hepatic disease and medicines for treatment and prevention of hepatic disease will comprehensively reveal the essence of generation,development and transformation of TCM hepatic disease,providing the most essential theoretical basis for TCM prevention and treatment of hepatic disease.To establish transform mode concept of correlation of proteomics with TCM hepatic disease will enrich greatly theory of TCM treatment of hepatic disease based on differentiation of syndromes,and also will provide a new thinking model for study on TCM syndrome types,and accelerate the process of TCM modernization.

To observe repair of dental defect and its curative effect of the vertical root split of molar in the seniors, every affected section of 36 cases (40 teeth) of the senior's root split was extracted by hemisection, the other sections of them were repaired by either complete crown restoration (15 cases) or fixed bridge restoration (21 cases). The results showed that after 6～12 months, excellent curative effect was achieved in 32 cases, good curative effect in 3 cases, poor curative effect in 1 case. Significant difference was found between the two repair methods( P

[Objective]To observe the clinical effect of the treatment of hyperplastic nonunion of the tibia with interlocking intramedullary nailing,fascia pedicled callus flap and bone grafting.[Method]Twelve cases of nonunion of the tibia were treated with intramedullary interlocking nailing,fascia pedicled callus flap and bone grafting,and there were 8 males and 4 females.The patients age ranged from 26 to 64 years,with an average of 45 years.[Result]All cases were followed-up for an average of 48 months and achieved a solid union within 4～6 months.[Conclusion]Intramedullary interlocking nailing,fascia pedicled callus flap and bone grafting have the design of the reasonable biomechanics,the function of untispinning and unticurtailing,less partial blood decompose.The fascia pedicled callus flap and iliac bone grafting could result in solid union and it is a recomment method for promoting bone-healing up after grafting and forming.

Objective To evaluate intravesical instillation of epirubicin plus BCG to prevent recurrence of transitional cell cancer of bladder after surgical management. Methods A total of 44 cases of bladder cancer who underwent TURBT or partial cystectomy were divided into 2 groups.①Group 1 received intravesical instillation of epirubicin plus BCG (24 cases).Within 1 week following operation single dose of intravesical epirubicin instillation was given and from the second week regular intravesical BCG was instilled afterwards.②Group 2 received BCG alone (20 cases).Within 1 week after surgical management regular intravesical BCG instillation was given. All the patients were followed up for 24 months. Results In Group 2,3 cases had recurrence at 5,9,12 months individually,the incidence rate being 15% (3/20).No recurrence developed in Group 1.The recurrence rate was significantly different between the 2 groups (?2 test,P
