Spontaneous subcapsular hepatic hemorrhage associated with pregnancy: Report of a case

We report herein a case of spontaneous subcapsular hepatic hemorrhage which occurred in a 33-year-old woman 1 day after she had been delivered of her second child by cesarean section following an uneventful pregnancy. She complained of right upper quadrant pain on the 1st postoperative day, and computed tomography (CT) showed subcapsular low-density masses in both liver lobes, while extravasation was demonstrated by CO₂ intraarterial digital subtraction angiography (IADSA). The hemorrhage was successfully controlled by transcatheter arterial embolization (TAE). However, on the 3rd day after TAE, an exploratory laparotomy was performed to establish an exact diagnosis to explain the persistent abdominal pain and abnormal liver function tests. Subcapsular hematomas in both lobes were confirmed and no visible laceration was present. The patient recovered gradually by spontaneous absorption of the hematomas and was discharged on the 22nd postoperative day. Spontaneous hepatic hemorrhage associated with pregnancy is a very rare complication, and establishing a correct diagnosis and initiating appropriate therapy are essential for this life-threatening disease.     

Mycotic aneurysm of the aorta: MRI and MRA features

Mycotic aneurysms of the abdominal aorta are potentially fatal but uncommon. We report the MRI and MRA features of an abdominal aortic mycotic aneurysm in a patient who presented with nonspecific low back pain. By delineating the saccular nature of the aneurysm and identifying the coexistence of vertebral enhancement, MRI was crucial for the final diagnosis. A potential pitfall of contrast-enhanced MRA is also demonstrated.     

腰穿放液治疗160例外伤性蛛网膜下腔出血的体会

目的：探讨腰穿放液对外伤性蛛网膜下腔出血的作用。方法：对１６０名外伤性蛛网膜下腔出血的病人行腰穿放液，少则２次，多则７次。结果：所有病人症状均好转，从脑脊液的力学上看脑脊液恢复正常性状的时间缩短，结论：腰穿放液治疗外伤性蛛网膜下腔出血是十分有效的方法，近期内临床症状明显改善，远期并发症减少。     

急性高血压脑出血的治疗体会

本文对62例急性高血压脑出血进行了着重于治疗的分析。脑出血病严重威胁患者生命,死亡率高,病残率高。治疗的关键是绝对卧床,避免搬动;积极治疗及控制脑水肿、降低颅内压;头置冰帽以减低脑耗氧量,减轻脑水肿,促进脑细胞功能的恢复;加强护理,预防及治疗并发症是提高患者生存时间及存活率的重要环节;对出血量多、患者一般情况较好者,作者主张手术治疗,清除颅内血肿,可减轻症状,提高存活率及降低病残率。     

Expectant management of deep cerebral venous thrombosis with intraventricular hemorrhage

Limited randomized clinical trial data favor the use of anticoagulation in patients with cerebral venous thrombosis. We present a patient with deep cerebral venous thrombosis in whom anticoagulation was withheld because of coexistent intraventricular hemorrhage. She had a benign clinical course without anticoagulation, suggesting that close observation may be a management option in these patients.     

脑出血患者血清胃泌素水平测定及意义

目的探讨血清胃泌素水平与脑出血并发应激性溃疡之间的关系.方法用放免法测定脑出血病人发病后24小时内及恢复期血清胃泌素水平,并与正常人作对照.所获数据用t检验.结果脑出血病人发病后24小时血清胃泌素水平较正常对照组明显增高,合并应激性溃疡出血者升高更显著,恢复期病人血清胃泌素水平与正常对照组相比无显著性差异.结论胃泌素在脑出血并发应激性溃疡的发生中起重要作用.     

脑卒中患者下丘脑─垂体─肾上腺皮质轴功能改变及临床意义

观察了１７２例脑卒中患者血清促肾上腺皮质激素（ＡＣＴＨ）、皮质醇的变化，发现ＡＣＴＨ、皮质醇水平明显高于正常对照组，脑出血组高于脑梗塞组；病情轻重与ＡＣＴＨ、皮质醇的变化明显相关。治疗前后ＡＣＴＨ、皮质醇水平明显不同，治疗后明显降低（Ｐ＜０．０１）。说明治疗后可改善下丘脑－垂体－肾上腺皮质轴（Ｈ／Ｐ／Ａ）功能紊乱。     

高血压性脑出血外科治疗体会

报告33例高血压性脑出血施行外科手术治疗的临床体会。结合术前病情分级、血肿类型、血肿量、中线结构移位程度等,对手术治疗的适应症选择、手术方式及入路、提高治疗效果、减少术后并发症等作了讨论。提出了手术治疗重要性。     

胸主动脉夹层动脉瘤腔内隔绝术手术入路的探讨

目的 探讨为胸主动脉夹层动脉瘤(TAD)行腔内隔绝术(EVE)选择合适的导入动脉。方法 以彩超，CTA或MRA为检查手段，评估导入动脉(股动脉、髂总动脉、腹主动脉下段等)的直径大小(≥8mm)、有否硬化斑块、狭窄、是否被夹层累及、有否扭曲及其程度，从而选择具体的手术入路。结果 本组37例TAD行EVE术所选择经股动脉手术入路23例、经髂总动脉手术入路14例。未选择经腹主动脉下段手术入路。即时操作成功率为100％。结论 合理的选择导入动脉作为手术入路，是EVE手术治疗TAD顺利完成的要点。
