Objective: To compare the inhibitory effect of carmustine(BCNU) and bleomycin on craniopharyngiomas in vitro. Methods: Cells were successfully cultured in vitro from the fresh specimens, then the culture medium with bleomycin or BCNU at different concentration was added. The tumor inhibitory curve-line was drawn based on the cell number at different time points. After cultured for 144 h, ATP-luminescence assay was applied to test the antitumor effect. Results: The cell number decreased rapidly when the medium was added. The decreasing speed was faster in BCNU medium than that in bleomycin medium at the same concentration. The bleomycin medium showed no significant inhibitory effect except for the one at 1.00 g/L. However, regardless of the concentration, BCNU medium inhibited the cells effectively. Conclusion: BCNU has stronger inhibitory effect on craniopharyngiomas cells than bleomycin, it can be used to treat this tumor

Objective To describe the hemodynamic characteristics of normal pancreas and pancreatic tumors by 64 slices helical CT perfusion imaging, to evaluate the role of CT perfusion in the diagnosis of pancreatic tumors. Methods Perfusion CT scan was performed in 149 patients, including 36 patients with normal pancreas, 105 patients with pancreatic tumors and 8 patients with duodenal papillary carcinoma. The parameters including blood flow (BF) ,blood volume (BV) and permeability surface area product (PS) were measured. Results The mean value of BF, BV and PS of normal pancreas were (135.24±48.36) ml· min-1·kg-1, (200.55±54.96)ml/kg and (49.75±24.27) ml·min-1·kg-1, respectively. Pancreatic carcinoma has a lower BF, BV and PS,whieh were 31.77±19.36 ml·min-1· kg-1, (66.84±39.49)ml/kg and (37.64±27.14) ml·min-1·kg-1, respectively. The aforementioned parameters in pancreatic cysts were close to zero. The parameters in pancreatic carcinoma were significantly lower than those in normal pancreas(P<0.05); the BF and BV in duodenal papillary carcinoma were significantly lower than those in normal pancreas(P<0.05), while the value of PS was not significantly different from that in normal pancreas; the aforementioned parameters in pancreatic cysts were significantly different from those in normal pancreas(P <0.01). Conclusions In perfu sion CT, normal pancreas was an organ with symmetrical BF,BV and PS. Pancreatic carcinoma was a tumor with low perfusion and decreased PS. Duodenal papillary carcinoma had decreased BF and BV with no significant change in PS. Pancreatic cyst had no blood perfusion. The 64 slice helical CT peffusion imaging was invaluable in differential diagnosis of pancreatic tumors.

Objective: To explore the effect of applying the digital technology in the reconstruction of congenital microtia. Methods: CT data of 40 patients with congenital microtia were collected by using software (Mimics 17.01) and three-dimensional printing. And the three-dimensional reconstruction of costal cartilage and ear model was performed. The effectiveness and feasibility of the digital assisted technology in the reconstruction of congenital microtia could be established, by contrasting the pre-three-dimensional reconstruction and the morphology of the costal cartilage harvested during surgery and comparing the imaging data of the auricles before and after surgery. Results: 40 patients were satisfied with the appearance of the auricle after the restoration. The rib cartilage obtained during the operation was consistent with the preoperative data simulation. The trauma of the operation and the operation time were reduced. There was no statistically significant difference between both auricle length and width for the reconstructed ear and those of the normal ear, auricle length mean (62.10±6.82)mm vs (60.31±6.18)mm, auricle width mean (26.10±2.26)mm vs (25.40±2.32)mm, P>0.05, respectively. Conclusions The application of digital assisted technique in congenital microtia correction could accurately display the tissue structure of the operation area, which was helpful to preoperative design, reduce intraoperative injury and achieve satisfactory surgical result .

Objective: To explore procedure of the one-stage surgery with prolonged tissue expansion in microtia reconstruction and treatment of related complications. Methods: 211 patients had undergone the one-stage surgery of microtia reconstruction with prolonged tissue expansion in Department of Aesthetic Plastic and Maxillofacial Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi′an Jiaotong University from June 2016 to June 2017.
