Objective:To explore the clinical effects of combined surgical and high-frequency electro-acupuncture treatment for aesthetic restoration in children with eyelid split nevus.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on the medical records of children treated for eyelid split nevus in the Plastic Surgery Department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Army Medical University from January 2019 to December 2023. All cases underwent combined surgical excision and high-frequency electro-acupuncture vaporization. Surgical removal was used for nevi with significant pigmentation and deep involvement, and high-frequency electro-acupuncture was simultaneously applied to vaporize residual superficial pigmentation layer by layer based on the depth of the pigmentation. The wounds were repaired using either direct suturing or local flap transfer. Postoperative management included the application of growth factors and anti-scar treatments. Postoperative healing, adverse effects, and pigment clearance rate (categorized as healed, significant effect, improved, or ineffective) were observed by comparsons of the pre-treatment and the last follow-up photographs. Eyelid function, appearance, and scar hypertrophy were assessed during follow-up, and family satisfaction (categorized as very satisfied, satisfied, or dissatisfied) was surveyed via telephone.Results:Five children were included, with one male and four females aged between 2 and 10 years (average 7 years). Pigment areas ranged from 0.3 cm × 0.5 cm to 1.7 cm × 1.1 cm, with surgical excision areas from 0.3 cm × 0.4 cm to 1.5 cm × 1.1 cm. All children had good wound healing without complications such as infection, flap ischemic necrosis, wound dehiscence or bleeding. The pigment clearance rate was over 90%, achieving a healed effect. During the follow-up of 14 to 48 months (average 24.2 months), all patients had normal eyelid function without difficulties in opening or closing the eyes, or epiphora. The eyelid appearance was satisfactory without asymmetry, ptosis, ectropion or hypertrophic scars. The aesthetic outcomes and functionality of the eyelids were ideal, and satisfaction was generally rated as very satisfied.Conclusion:Surgical removal combined with high-frequency electro-acupuncture is beneficial for preserving aesthetic appearance while pigmentation in children with eyelid split nevus is removed, offering a new treatment option.

Background and aim:Hepatic ischemia-reperfusion injury(IRI)is a significant challenge in liver trans-plantation,trauma,hypovolemic shock,and hepatectomy,with limited effective interventions available.This study aimed to investigate the role of leukocyte cell-derived chemotaxin 2(LECT2)in hepatic IRI and assess the therapeutic potential of Lect2-short hairpin RNA(shRNA)delivered through adeno-associated virus(AAV)vectors. Materials and methods:This study analyzed human liver and serum samples from five patients under-going the Pringle maneuver.Lect2-knockout and C57BL/6J mice were used.Hepatic IRI was induced by clamping the hepatic pedicle.Treatments included recombinant human LECT2(rLECT2)and AAV-Lect2-shRNA.LECT2 expression levels and serum biomarkers including alanine aminotransferase(ALT),aspartate aminotransferase(AST),creatinine,and blood urea nitrogen(BUN)were measured.Histological analysis of liver necrosis and quantitative reverse-transcription polymerase chain reaction were performed. Results:Serum and liver LECT2 levels were elevated during hepatic IRI.Serum LECT2 protein and mRNA levels increased post reperfusion.Lect2-knockout mice had reduced weight loss;hepatic necrosis;and serum ALT,AST,creatinine,and BUN levels.rLECT2 treatment exacerbated weight loss,hepatic necrosis,and serum biomarkers(ALT,AST,creatinine,and BUN).AAV-Lect2-shRNA treatment significantly reduced weight loss,hepatic necrosis,and serum biomarkers(ALT,AST,creatinine,and BUN),indicating thera-peutic potential. Conclusions:Elevated LECT2 levels during hepatic IRI increased liver damage.Genetic knockout or shRNA-mediated knockdown of Lect2 reduced liver damage,indicating its therapeutic potential.AAV-mediated Lect2-shRNA delivery mitigated hepatic IRI,offering a potential new treatment strategy to enhance clinical outcomes for patients undergoing liver-related surgeries or trauma.
