Utilisation of organs proceeding from donors with heart failure: review of the pathogenesis of organic damage and the possible mechanisms of prevention

There is an evident imbalance between the number of patients awaiting a kidney transplant and the availability of organs proceeding from donors with brain death. A high number of patients die each day from heart failure, whose organs could be used for transplants if specific care is employed. Although centres do exist where these methods of extraction are established, the problems of organic damage have yet to be resolved, since one third of the organs are still lost, besides the increase in the need for early dialysis, and the number of dysfunctioning grafts two years after the transplant, when this type or organ is employed. There is increasingly detailed knowledge of the pathogenesis of organic damage following heart failure and reanimation, as well as of the damage following the conservation and reimplantation of the kidney. Knowledge of the maximum time of hot ischemic that an organ can withstand is of crucial importance if organs are not to be unduly discarded. Besides, the increasing understanding of the physiopathology of oxidative stress could make it possible for us, through the use of antioxidants, to attempt to improve the utilisation of the organs and diminish the incidence of dysfunctions and rejections.

Esthetic management of his cosmetic problem which included fixed appliance therapy followed by light cure restorations is discussed.KEY WORDS: Impaction, Transposition     

‘Hybrid’ Bariatric Surgery: Bilio-pancreatic Diversion and Duodenal Switch - Preliminary Experience

Background: Hybrid, combined or mixed bariatric surgery is the combination of a degree of ‘malabsorption’ (as achieved by the intestinal bypass) with a ‘rrestriction’ (as achieved by gastric bypass or gastroplasty), thereby simultaneously reducing the absorption of fats in the small bowel and decreasing the intake of food. Methods: A modification of the bilio-pancreatic diversion (BPD) with a duodenal switch procedure, vertical lineal gastrectomy and preservation of the pylorus, has been used in 23 patients. The antropyloric pump and 4 cm of the duodenum are left intact to preserve physiologic gastric emptying and to prevent anastomotic ulcer. The use of staplers and continuous running sutures reduces surgical risks and operative time. Results: One patient, converted from a vertical gastroplasty, had an intrathoracic esophageal perforation and died of multisystemic organ failure, a mortality rate of 4.5%. One patient had a partial dehiscence of the laparotomy wound. Three patients developed subcutaneous seromas. Mean weight losses during the first 4 months were 13, 11, 6 and 5 kg, with a loss of 70% of excess weight in patients approaching 1 year. No patient needs treatment for diarrhea. No serious secondary side-effects have been detected. Conclusion: This operation appears to result in very satisfactory weight loss, improved quality of life, and a low incidence of complications.     

温血心停跳液与冷晶体心停跳液对狗心率变异性的影响

为探讨体外循环（ＣＰＢ）导致心脏植物神经系统（ＣＡＳ）损伤的机理,了解温血心停跳液能否防止ＣＰＢ后心率变异性（ＨＲＶ）的降低,采用对照方法观察了温血心停跳液与冷晶体心停跳液对狗ＨＲＶ的影响。结果显示：ＣＰＢ后温血心停跳液组（ＷＢ组）和冷晶体心停跳液组（ＣＣ组）的全频谱（ＴＰ）、低频（ＬＦ）和高频（ＨＦ）均较术前明显降低（Ｐ＜０．０５）,而且ＣＣ组比ＷＢ组降低更明显（Ｐ＜０．０５）,但ＬＦ／ＨＦ在组内及组间均无明显变化（Ｐ＞０．０５）。ＣＰＢ后２４小时平均心率（ＭＨＲ）明显增加（Ｐ＜０．０５）,且ＣＣ组高于ＷＢ组（Ｐ＜０．０５）。本研究表明：采用温血心停跳液或冷晶体心停跳液的ＣＰＢ不会干扰ＣＡＳ平衡,但均能使ＨＲＶ降低,温血心停跳液不能防止ＨＲＶ损害。     

Adult-derived neural precursors transplanted into multiple regions in the adult brain

Neural stem cells persist in the adult brain subventricular zone (SVZ). These cells generate a large number of new neurons that migrate to the olfactory bulb, where they complete their differentiation. Here, we transplanted cells carrying beta-galactosidase under the control of neuron-specific enolase promoter (NSE::LacZ) from the SVZ of adult mice into the striatum cortex and olfactory bulb, with or without an excitotoxin lesion. Between 2 and 8 weeks after transplantation, grafted cells were present in the recipient regions, but extensive migration and differentiation into mature neurons of grafted cells were only observed in the olfactory bulb. Clusters of graft-derived neuroblasts forming chain-like structures were observed within or close to the grated sites in the cortex and striatum; electron microscopy confirmed that graft-derived cells in the olfactory bulb and a small number in the striatum were neurons. Surprisingly, most of the cells expressing NSE::LacZ outside the olfactory bulb were astrocytes. We conclude that primary precursors from the SVZ migrate and differentiate effectively only within the environment of the olfactory bulb. Only limited survival and differentiation were observed in other brain regions studied.     

Laparoscopic versus open adrenalectomy in Cushing's syndrome and disease

BACKGROUND: Adrenalectomy in Cushing's syndrome and disease involves particular risks and complications. The aim of the study was to compare the open posterior and the flank laparoscopic approaches in this group of patients. METHODS: Forty patients who underwent unilateral or bilateral adrenalectomy for hypercortisolism between 1991 and 1999 were studied. Patients were divided as follows: adenoma--5 laparoscopic and 6 open; hyperplasia--17 laparoscopic and 12 open. Demographics, surgical details, outcome, and complications were comparatively analyzed. RESULTS: Patients undergoing laparoscopic or open adrenalectomy were comparable in terms of age, sex distribution, body mass index, respiratory status, and anesthetic risk. Operative time was longer in the laparoscopic group. One patient in the laparoscopic group died of upper gastrointestinal tract bleeding on postoperative day 17. Two patients in the open group and one in the laparoscopic group experienced postoperative complications. Cure of the disease occurred in all patients. Mild abdominal wall pain developed in one patient in each group. No abdominal wall weakness was identified in either group. CONCLUSIONS: Cure rate and operative and long-term morbidity were similar for laparoscopic and open adrenalectomies in this series. However, it is important to emphasize that late complications in our patients who underwent the posterior open procedure were rather infrequent.     

The role of pancreatic venous sampling in the localization of occult insulinomas

The palpation and enucleation of occult insulinomas (less than 15 mm) can be a difficult surgical problem even with good arteriographic localization. In the authors' limited experience, confirmation of arteriographic findings by pancreatic venous sampling provided little additional localizing information. However, if arteriography is negative or equivocal, venous sampling can indicate the segment of pancreas to be "blindly" resected if the adenoma is not palpable. Venous sampling may be misleading in polyendocrine syndromes because of the frequency of multiple adenomas and variable hormone production.     

Hürthle cell (oxyphilic) papillary thyroid carcinoma: a variant with more aggressive biologic behavior.

The latest World Health Organization International Classification defines papillary thyroid carcinoma by its "follicular cell differentiation...as well as characteristic nuclear changes". However the oxyphilic (Hürthle cell) papillary carcinoma have nuclei which generally resemble the nuclei seen in oxyphilic follicular carcinomas, and such oxyphilic papillary tumors may behave more aggressively than typical papillary cancers. To further characterize these rare tumors, we identified during a 32-year period 22 patients with oxyphilic papillary cancer and compared them with 1,084 patients with typical papillary cancers and 57 patients with oxyphilic follicular cancers treated by the Mayo surgical group during the same time period. Although typical papillary and oxyphilic papillary cancers were comparable with regards to patient age, tumor size and extent, TNM stage, and prognostic score (AGES), there were significant differences. Compared to typical papillary tumors, oxyphilic papillary cancers had fewer neck nodal metastases at primary diagnosis (5% vs 40%, p less than 0.0001), were more often DNA non-diploid (71% vs 21%, p less than 0.001), and after 10 postoperative years had higher rates of both tumor recurrence (28% vs 11%, p less than 0.0001) and cause-specific mortality (1.7% vs 4%, p less than 0.0005). In these four important respects the oxyphilic papillary cancers more resembled the oxyphilic follicular cancers. For oxyphilic follicular cancers, the frequency of initial neck nodal metastases was 7% (cf 5%); 83% of the oxyphilic follicular tumors were non-diploid (cf 71%), and at 10 years postoperatively the tumor recurrence and cause-specific mortality rates were 28% and 18%, insignificantly different from 28% and 17% seen with the oxyphilic papillary cancers.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)
