Objective To discuss the surgical techniques and results of internal fixation supplemented with soft tissue repair of triad injury of the elbow via the combined anterior-lateral approach.Methods A retrospective analysis was done on 15 patients with triad injury of the elbow treated from January 2011 to August 2014.There were 10 males and 5 females,aged 38.4 years (range,20-61 years).Injury resulted from traffic accidents in nine patients,high-level falls in three and groundlevel falls in three.Radial head fractures were Mason type Ⅰ in five patients,type Ⅱ in eight,and type Ⅲ in two.Fractures of the coronoid process of the ulna were Regan-Morrey type Ⅰ in four patients,type Ⅱ in ten and type Ⅲ in one.Time interval between injury and operation was 8.5 d.All patients were firstly operated on through the anterior approach to have Herbert screw fixation or anterior capsule suture lasso fixation of the coronoid fracture as well as Herbert screw fixation of the radial head fracture.And then,elbow lateral incision was made to repair lateral collateral ligament complex and common extensor tendon by 2-0 Ethibon suture.Elbow flexion-extension,forearm pronation-supination and Mayo elbow performance score (MEPS) were used to evaluate the clinical elbow functions.Complications were recorded after operation.Results All patients were followed up for mean 19.6 months (range,12-30 months).All coronoid fractures healed.Radial head fractures in 14 patients healed.Comparison of preoperative to final follow-up variables presented significant differences in elbow flexion-extension [(45.1 ± 5.6) °:(129.5 ± 9.3) °],forearm pronation-supination [(55.4 ±.8.7) °:(140.5 ± 10.3) °] and MEPS [(25.1 ± 9.6) points:(91.2 ± 5.2) points] (P ＜ 0.01).Complications included heterotopic ossification in one patient and nonunion of radial head fracture in one patient.No neurovascular injury of the elbow,elbow residual instability,dislocation,elbow stiffness and active pain occurred.Conclusion Combined anterior-lateral approach with internal fixation and soft tissue repair is a simple and safe method that effectively restore the elbow joint function.

Objective To distinguish residual tumor from inflammation after radiofrequency ablation (RA) for hepatic VX2 carcinoma in rabbits according to the comparative study between CT and pathological findings.Methods CT and pathologic examination were performed in different stages of RFA for rabbits hepatic VX2 models,and their different performances were observed.Results Marginal enhancement band was showed with enhanced CT of both residual tumor and inflammation.Moreover,liver tissues peripheral to enhancement band were in gradual weaken pattern.The enhancement band of inflammation was most obvious on the 2~(nd) day after RFA,but weakened gradually and disappeared two weeks later.Conclusion The residual tumor and inflammation could not be distinguished through enhanced CT scanning within 1 week after RFA.Low intensity lesions with peripheral enhancement 2 weeks after RFA should be recognized as residual tumor.

Objective To investigate the clinical distribution and antimicrobial resistance of Streptococcus agalactiae(S.agalactiae) in neonatal intensive care unit(NICU), and provide reference for antimicrobial use and intervention measures.Methods Specimens from neonates in the NICU of a hospital in 2010-2014 were collected, the department sources and antimicrobial susceptibility testing results of 62 strains of S.agalactiae isolated from children were analyzed.Results 62 strains of S.agalactiae were mainly distributed at full-term NICU, accounting for 64.52％;the main source of specimens was blood, accounting for 90.33％, followed, by cerebrospinal fluid (6.45％), sputum, and secretion(both were 1.61％).S.agalactiae had the highest resistance rate to tetracycline(79.03％);resistance rates to erythromycin and clindamycin were both 74.19％, resistance rate to levofloxacin was 40.32％, susceptibility rates to penicillin and ampicillin were both 100％.Conclusion S.agalactiae infection mainly occurred in neonates in full-term NICU, and has high resistance rate to multiple antimicrobial agents, penicillin and ampicillin can be used as the preferred antimicrobial agents for the treatment of S.agalactiae infection.

Objective To explore the imaging characteristics of the ovarian thecoma-fibroma.Methods The clinical imaging characteristics of 25 patients with thecoma-fibroma were retrospectively analyzed. Results A total of 27 lesions were seen in 25 patients, and the maximum diameter of the tumors was 1.2 - 15.0 cm, with an average diameter of 6.9 cm. The tumors whose maximum diameter larger than 6 cm were mainly as cysticsolid. Twenty-six lesions were well-defined margin, and 14 lesions were round and oval masses, 9 lesions were lobulated masses, 3 lesions were irregular masses, and 1 lesion presented with unclear boundary. A total of 10 lesions in 9 cases were performed with CT scan, and the density was similar to uterine muscle density. In MRI scan of a total of 17 lesions of 16 cases, all lesions showed hypointensity on T1WI. On T2WI, 8 lesions showed slightly hyperintensity, 7 lesions appeared slight hypointensity, and 2 lesions appeared significantly hypointense. Eight lesions showed slit hyperintensity. Enhancement scanning was performed in seven cases. Five cases showed mild to moderate enhancement, 1 case was enhanced obviously, and 1 case was not strengthened. Conclusions The imaging findings of the ovarian thecoma-fibroma have somewhat features and can indirectly reflect pathology of tumor. Combined with the clinical data, imaging characteristics are is helpful to the diagnosis and differential diagnosis of the disease.

M ethods Thirty adult healthy rabbits (30 right eyes) were divided into 3 groups. Group Ⅰ: fresh retinal tissue; group Ⅱ: routine culture medium; group Ⅲ: culture medium of amniotic cells. The retinal tissues in group Ⅱ and Ⅲ we re cultured in the corresponding culture medium for 1 week. The content of NO an d NOS in retinal tissues in the 3 groups were determined. Results Compared with group I, the content of NO and NOS of group Ⅱ increased obvio usly (t=3.821, 3.854; P0.05) . Conclusion Culture medium of amniotic cells may remove free r adicals and enhance the ability of antioxidation.

AIM: To investigate the expression of connective tissue growth factor (CTGF) and α-SMA in human lens epithelium cell (HLEC) line B3 after transfection by liposome-coated siRNA targeting CTGF.METHODS: HLECs were transfected with small interfering RNA (siRNA) targeting CTGF,labeled with 5`-fluorescein isothiocyanate (5`-FITC) and coated with lipofectamine.The transfection ratio was evaluated via fluorescence intensity.Cell counting kit-8 (CCK-8) assay was performed to assess cytoviability of both non-transfected and transfected HLECs.Quantitative RT-PCR,cell immunochemistry and Western blot analysis were conducted to detect the expression changes of CTGF and α-SMA after transfection.RESULTS: A highly effective transfection ratio was observed in siRNA co-transfected with lipofectamine.The transfection ratio reached 95% at 24h.The proliferation of HLECs was inhibited by siRNA after 72h transfection.The expression of CTGF and α-SMA significantly decreased in HLECs after transfected by CTGF siRNA for 24h.This effect was not found in negative control siRNA.CONCLUSIONS: SiRNA targeting CTGF decreased CTGF and α-SMA expression in HLECs,which is a potential therapeutic strategy for posterior capsular opacification.

OBJECTIVETo study the techniques and therapeutic effects of endovascular stent-graft exclusion in aortic dissection and dissecting aneurysm.

METHODSThe clinical data of 20 cases with aortic dissection and(or) dissecting aneurysm were analysed. Stanford A dissection was found in 2 cases, in which one had a tear entry on ascending aorta. Stanford B dissection was found in 18 cases. Five patients had two or more tear entries in different sites. Endovascular polyester-covered stent-graft exclusion was performed in all cases, of which, one case was also given fenestration and graft replacement and one subjected to Y graft bypass from ascending aorta to the left common carotid artery and left subclavian artery before endovascular stent-graft exclusion.

RESULTSNo one died in operation. One patient died of heart infarction on the third day after operation. During the followup of 1 - 20 months, 19 patients were alive well (95%). The aortic dissections and(or) dissecting aneurysms of all the patients disappeared without endoleaks and organ or limb ischemia.

CONCLUSIONEndovascular stent-graft exclusion with high successful rate, low mortality and high survival rate, is simple, safe and effective in treating aortic dissection and dissecting aneurysm.
