Hepatic pseudotumor in long-standing biliary atresia patients undergoing liver transplantation.

A pseudotumor, giant regenerative nodule, or macroregenerative nodule is an unusual benign hepatic lesion in biliary atresia (BA) patients. This tumor may mimic malignant transformation and may preclude liver transplantation (LT). The clinical and imaging surveillance of patients after the Kasai procedure is therefore an important aspect of management of BA patients. Our objective is to report our experience and describe the incidence, imaging, and pathologic features of pseudotumors in BA patients awaiting LT. From August 1990 to December 2006, 133 LTs for BA were performed. Five (3.8%; 4 female, 1 male) patients were diagnosed with pseudotumor. The patients' records were reviewed. The diagnostic imaging modalities used were abdominal ultrasound (US), computed tomography (CT) scan, and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI). Histologic confirmation of the lesions was obtained in all cases. All underwent the Kasai operation in early infancy. Six of 7 lesions in 4 of 5 patients were demonstrated by pretransplant imaging. Two of 7 tumors were detected by US. Five of 7 lesions were detected by CT, and 5 of 7 lesions were demonstrated by MRI. In 1 patient, the lesion was not seen in the US, CT, or MRI but was found during surgery and confirmed by histology. An additional tumor was found incidentally during histologic examination in a patient previously diagnosed to have 2 tumors by CT and MRI. In another patient diagnosed to have 2 tumors on imaging, pathology revealed only a single tumor. In conclusion, although unusual, pseudotumor should be included in the differential diagnosis of liver masses in BA children.     

体外循环浅低温心脏不停跳心内直视手术的临床研究

目的:探讨体外循环浅低温心脏不停跳心内直视手术的方法、疗效评价及其对心肌保护作用。方法:总结2004年3月～2008年12月间12例施行浅低温心脏不停跳心内直视手术病例,并行循环不阻断主动脉,鼻咽温维持在32～35℃,阻断上、下腔静脉,完成心内直视手术。结果:全组无围手术期死亡,心脏手术结束能顺利停机,术后血流动力学平稳,无严重心律失常,血尿发生率0%,无1例发生空气栓塞。1例心房切口缝合针眼渗血,行再次开胸止血,1例术后第32h发生急性肺梗塞,均经治疗痊愈。结论:浅低温心脏不停跳心内直视手术技术安全可行,是一种接近生理状态的心肌保护方法,可避免再灌注损伤,有较理想的心肌保护效果。     

拉萨地区冠心病与幽门螺杆菌感染相关性研究

目的探讨西藏拉萨地区幽门螺杆菌（Helicobacter pyloric，Hp）感染与冠心病及多种危险因素的关系。为该地区冠心病的防治提供依据。方法分为冠心病组46例和非冠心病组51例，应用检测血抗HpIgG及-C-尿素呼气试验方法检测Hp感染情况，并分别测定各组血脂、血糖、餐后2h血糖、C反应蛋白、纤维蛋白原、白细胞总数。结果冠心病组患者血清抗HpIgG阳性率为50．0％（23／46），明显高于非冠心病组的23．5％（12／51），P〈0．05；冠心病患者Hp现症感染率为54．3％（25／46），明显高于非冠心病组的31．3％（27／51），P〈0．05；冠心病组Hp感染患者血脂、空腹及餐后2h血糖、C反应蛋白、纤维蛋白原较非感染患者明显升高（P〈0．05）。结论Hp感染与冠心病相关，可能是拉萨地区冠心病发病的独立危险因素。

Astrocytic induction of matrix metalloproteinase-9 and edema in brain hemorrhage.

We tested the hypothesis that astrocytic matrix metalloproteinase-9 (MMP-9) mediates hemorrhagic brain edema. In a clinical case of hemorrhagic stroke, MMP-9 co-localized with astrocytes and neurons in peri-hematoma areas. In a mouse model where blood was injected into striatum, MMP-9 was colocalized with astrocytes surrounding the hemorrhagic lesion. Because MMP-9 is present in blood as well as brain, we compared four groups of wild type (WT) and MMP-9 knockout (KO) mice: WT blood injected into WT brain, KO blood into KO brain, WT blood into KO brain, and KO blood into WT brain. Gel zymography showed that MMP-9 was elevated in WT hemorrhagic brain tissue but absent from KO hemorrhagic brain tissue. Edematous water content was elevated when WT blood was injected into WT brain. However, edema was ameliorated when MMP-9 was absent in either blood or brain or both. To further assess the mechanisms involved in astrocytic induction of MMP-9, we next examined primary mouse astrocyte cultures. Exposure to hemoglobin rapidly upregulated MMP-9 in conditioned media within 1 to 24 h. Hemoglobin-induced MMP-9 was reduced by the free radical scavenger U83836E. Taken together, these data suggest that although there are large amounts of MMP-9 in blood, hemoglobin-induced oxidative stress can trigger MMP-9 in astrocytes and these parenchymal sources of matrix degradation may also be an important factor in the pathogenesis of hemorrhagic brain edema.
