In tracheal resection and reconstruction, a technically demanding, complex, and high-risk procedure, management of the anastomotic site significantly impacts postoperative outcomes and long-term quality of life. However, comprehensive studies detailing perioperative anastomotic management strategies in tracheal reconstruction remain scarce. This review summarizes perioperative management strategies for tracheal reconstruction, covering preoperative assessment, surgical techniques, and other key aspects. It also highlights future research directions and challenges, aiming to provide clinicians with a systematic guide to perioperative management in tracheal reconstruction.

OBJECTIVE Exploring the TNC gene mutations in a family with hereditary hearing loss and their relationship with clinical phenotypes.METHODS Draw the family pedigree chart,analyze the inheritance pattern,and assess the clinical phenotypes of family members using audiologic,imaging,and vestibular function tests.Perform whole exome sequencing on six members of the family to identify candidate mutations potentially related to hearing loss,and validate the distribution of these candidate mutations within the family and in normal controls using Sanger sequencing.RESULTS A heterozygous mutation c.5110G>T(p.Ala1704Ser)in exon 17 of the TNC gene on chromosome 9 was identified in the family.This mutation is associated with hereditary hearing loss.Carriers of this gene mutation all presented with normal hearing at birth and hearing decline during childhood;imaging examinations showed no abnormalities in the middle ear or inner ear structures.CONCLUSION This study reports for the first time the association between the heterozygous mutation c.5110G>T(p.Ala1704Ser)in the TNC gene and hereditary hearing loss,providing new evidence for molecular diagnosis and genetic counseling in cases of hereditary hearing loss.

【Objective】 To construct an adipose derived stem cell-based alphastatin peptide glioma targeting vector and detect its anti-angiogenesis effect in vitro. 【Methods】 The adipose derived stem cell-based alphastatin peptide glioma targeting vector (Al-ADSCs) was constructed by transfecting the alphastatin peptide lentivirus vector into adipose derived stem cells (ADSCs). The expressions of stem cell markers on the surface of targeted vector were detected by flow cytometry. The expression of alphastatin peptide in the targeted vector and in the cell culture supernatant of the targeted vector were detected by Western blotting and ELISA, respectively. Cell migration assay was used to detect the tendency of the targeted vector toward CD133+ glioma stem cells, and lumen formation assay was used to detect the effect of the targeted vector on endothelial cell angiogenesis in vitro. 【Results】 After transfection, the surface markers of stem cells expressed by targeted vector did not significantly change compared with ordinary adipose derived stem cells. Western blotting showed that the targeted vector could successfully express alphastatin peptide. ELISA showed that the alphastatin peptide was detected in the cell culture supernatant of targeted vector \mg/L]. Cell migration test showed no significant difference in the tendency of CD133+ glioma stem cells between the targeted vector and ordinary adipose derived stem cells \. Lumen formation experiment showed that the targeted vector could inhibit endothelial cell-mediated angiogenesis in vitro [Lumen count: Control group (13.33±0.76)/HPF, ADSCs group (19.40±1.71)/HPF, Al-ADSCs group (7.27±0.31)/HPF, P<0.01]. 【Conclusion】 In the process of constructing the adipose derived stem cell-based alphastatin peptide glioma targeting vector, the stem cell biological characteristics and tumor tendency of targeted vector have no significant changes. This targeted vector can stably express and secrete alphastatin peptide and inhibit endothelial cell-mediated angiogenesis in vitro.

Objective:To discussed the diagnostic value of magnetic resonance cholangiopancreatography (MRCP), and the use of laparoscopic surgery in management of patients with choledochal cyst with extrahepatic bile duct anomaly.Methods:Of 330 consecutive patients who underwent laparoscopic choledochectomy at Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center from January 2010 to September 2018, there were 23 patients with extrahepatic bile duct anomaly. The data of these patients were retrospectively analyzed. There were 4 males and 19 females, with an average age of 3.2 (range 0.3~9.0) years. According to whether the extrahepatic bile duct anomaly was diagnosed by preoperative MRCP, these patients were divided into the preoperative MRCP diagnosis group and the preoperative MRCP undiagnosed group. The impact of MRCP in diagnosing bile duct anomaly to prevent bile duct injury, on operation time, hospital stay and the types of extrahepatic bile duct anomaly on outcomes of laparoscopic treatment were analyzed.Results:All the 23 patients with choledochal cysts complicated by extrahepatic bile duct anomaly were confirmed at surgery. The incidence of extrahepatic bile duct anomaly was 6.97% (23/330). There were 47.8% of type II AHD (11/23); 36.8% of type III AHD (7/23); 4.3% of type IV AHD (1/23); 17.4% (4/23) of the type with communication with accessory bile duct (CABD). The preoperative MRCP diagnosis group consisted of 14 patients, while the preoperative MRCP non-diagnosis group consisted of 9 patients, including 2 patients without MRCP. The diagnostic rate of MRCP in preoperative diagnosis of extrahepatic bile duct anomaly was 66.7%(14/21). The preoperative MRCP undiagnosed group, when compared with the preoperatives MRCP undiagnosed group, had a significantly higher bile duct injury rate [preoperative MRCP diagnosis group 7.1%(1/14), preoperative MRCP non-diagnosis group 55.6%(5/9)], and a significantly longer operation time [preoperative MRCP diagnosis group(232.6±10.0) min, preoperative MRCP undiagnosed group (278.9±22.45)min], (all P<0.05). Laparoscopic surgery was completed in 22 of 23 patients. One patient was converted to open surgery. AHD reconstruction was needed in 11 patients with type II AHD and 1 patient with type IV AHD. Seven patients with type III AHD did not require any surgical intervention for the anomaly. The 4 patients with CABD underwent simple ligation. Postoperative chyloperitoneum developed in 1 patient, who successfully responded to conservative treatment. Postoperative recovery was uneventful in the remaining patients. At a median follow-up of 2 years (range 1 to 5 years), no further complications, including intrahepatic bile duct dilatation and hepatic atrophy were detected. Conclusions:MRCP was effective in preoperative diagnosis of choledochal cysts with extrahepatic bile duct anomaly. It helped to decrease intraoperation injuries to bile duct anomalies. MRCP was also useful in classifying patients with extrahepatic bile duct anomaly to better preoperatively planning of surgical treatment strategies. Laparoscopic surgery could be completed in the majority of these patients with good postoperative results.

The aim of the present study was to investigate the effects and mechanisms of lidocaine on lipopolysaccharide(LPS)-induced matrix metalloproteinase(MMP)-9 and MMP-2 activity in plasma, and the effects of lidocaine on LPS-induced acute lung injury(ALI). Mice were pretreated with lidocaine(2, 4, 8 mg/kg )for 30 minutes, and then treated with 10 mg/kg LPS(ip)for 12 h to induce ALI. The 7-day survival rate and lung wet/dry weight ratio of mice were monitored. Phosphorylation level of p38 was measured by western blot. The activity of MMP-9 and MMP-2 in plasma was evaluated by gelatin zymography. The results showed that pretreatment with lidocaine could significantly reduce the death rate of ALI mice as well as the lung wet/dry weight ratio in a dose-dependent manner and suppress the activity of MMP-9 and MMP-2 in plasma. Moreover, lidocaine also markedly inhibited LPS-induced upregulation of p-p38 in a dose-dependent manner. In conclusion, lidocaine alleviated LPS-induced acute lung injury by suppressing MMP-9 and MMP-2 activity.
