肝动脉化疗栓塞对肝癌细胞黏附分子CD44v6和ICAM-1表达的影响

目的:研究肝细胞癌(hepatocellular carcinoma,HCC)经导管肝动脉化疗栓塞(transcatheter arterial chemoemboli-zation,TACE)后残癌组织细胞黏附分子CD44v6和ICAM-1(intercelluar adhesion molecule-1,ICAM-1)的表达情况。方法:经病理证实的HCC 50例,包括单纯手术切除30例(对照组),TACE术后行Ⅱ期手术切除20例(TACE组)。TACE组患者术前接受1~2次不等的TACE治疗,均按统一规范标准给予化疗药物灌注+栓塞治疗。对标本行免疫组织化学PV-9000染色,其中TACE组取病灶边缘残存肿瘤部分,检测肿瘤组织CD44v6和ICAM-1的表达,将两组结果进行对照分析。结果:对照组和TACE组CD44v6和ICAM-1均有不同程度的表达。对照组CD44v6表达阳性22例(22/30,73.33%),TACE组CD44v6表达阳性13例(13/20,65%),两者间无显著性差异(P>0.05);对照组ICAM-1表达阳性19例(19/30,63.33%),TACE组ICAM-1表达阳性12例(12/20,60%),两者间亦无显著性差异(P>0.05)。对照组和TACE组中CD44v6和ICAM-1表达间均呈正相关(P<0.05)。结论:TACE术后残癌组织CD44v6和ICAM-1仍有较高的表达,TACE并不能有效降低肝癌组织CD44v6和ICAM-1的表达;两者表达呈正相关。     

多臂环抱型锁式接骨器治疗股骨假体周围骨折

随着社会人口的老龄化和人工关节置换年龄的年轻化,假体周围骨折的发生率在不断增高。由于假体的存在,使得再次手术固定较为困难。既往常采用非手术治疗或钢丝钢缆环扎、异体皮质骨板等材料固定,手术较为复杂,骨折不愈合或再移位的发生率高。我院自2001年12月～2005年3月采用多臂环抱型锁式接骨器治疗7例股骨假体周围骨折患者,取得了较为满意的效果。     

应当重视复杂危重胸外伤救治的临床研究

众所周知,在所有的外伤中,胸外伤死亡率位居前列.可是,大多数严重的胸伤患者都死在院前,在和平年代的医疗实践中,严重的胸伤并不多见.常见的肋骨骨折不需特殊处理,卧床、止痛、必要时胸壁固定即可.     

The relation of infectious and hemagglutination titers to the adaptation of influenza virus to mice

The non-pathogenic (unadapted) line of the Rhodes strain of influenza virus multiplied readily in the mouse lung, but its rate of multiplication was slower and its hemagglutination titer attained at the peak of growth was much lower than that of the adapted line of the same virus. The implication of these findings to mouse adaptability of the virus is discussed.

The tuberous breast revisited.

BACKGROUND: The tuberous breast presents a problem for which many surgical solutions have been described. Current teaching describes how the tuberous breast deformity is the result of skin shortage as well as herniation of breast tissue through the nipple-areola complex. However, through careful clinical observation we now believe that the only abnormality present is herniation of breast tissue through the nipple-areola complex. METHODS: Using this principle, we have refined a one-stage surgical procedure that can be used to correct any type of tuberous breast deformity. Since 2001 we have performed our technique on a series of 13 tuberous breasts of widely varying appearances in eight patients (age 17-24 years) with a follow up varying between 3 and 56 months. Our new understanding of the tuberous breast deformity has also made it possible to develop an objective, reproducible method for defining the tuberous breast based on the degree of areola herniation. RESULTS: All patients reported high levels of satisfaction with the procedure. Assessment of the results by an independent panel of attending surgeons showed all results to be good/excellent. Moreover, the results have improved with time and no revisions have been needed. Our method of defining the tuberous breast (based on the ratio of areola herniation:areola diameter) enabled us to identify a cut-off to decide (objectively) when a breast was tuberous. This allowed us to anticipate when an areola reduction/tightening procedure would be necessary to avoid a 'double-bubble' deformity. CONCLUSION: We propose a one-stage surgical procedure which is applicable to all degrees of tuberous breast deformity. The results appear to confirm our theory that the only abnormality present in the tuberous breast is herniation of breast tissue through the nipple-areola complex. In patients with small breasts and a tuberous deformity, correction of the herniation changes the tuberous breast into a simple hypoplastic breast. The volume deficit can then be corrected by augmentation (if desired by the patient). In patients with sufficient breast volume, correction of the herniation alone will correct the deformity.     

Treatment of congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation-does resection in the early postnatal period increase surgical risk?

OBJECTIVE: The recent development of fetal ultrasonography has allowed for an increasing number of prenatal diagnoses for congenital cystic adenomatoid malformation (CCAM). However, the appropriate surgical timing of these patients has not been studied as of yet. The aim of this study is to suggest a safe strategy for the treatment of CCAM by identifying the relationship between the timing of surgery and postoperative outcome. METHODS: Between 1987 and 2003, 40 patients (28 males, 12 females) underwent surgical resection for CCAM. The mean age was 38.6+/-9.1 (2 days-13 years) months. CCAM was diagnosed by prenatal ultrasonography in eight patients. Early operations were performed in four out of the eight. Operation was deferred until 2-12 months of age for the remaining four patients. RESULTS: Type I CCAM was found in 20 patients, type II in 20 and no patient exhibited type III. Five patients had associated pectus excavatum anomaly. There were no cases of operative mortality. Seventeen minor postoperative complications developed in 16 patients (40.0%): prolonged chest tube drain in 10, wound infection in 4, and 1 case of pneumonia, empyema and pleural space, respectively. The average hospital stay was 11.8 (6-29) days. During the mean follow-up period of 67.5 months, one patient died of accidental aspiration 7 months after operation during the postoperative recovery course of Ravich operation for pectus excavatum. The remaining patients reported doing well with normal physical activity. All five patients who underwent surgery at the age of under 1 month did not exhibit increased postoperative morbidity. CONCLUSIONS: We concluded that surgery for CCAM could be safely performed in all age groups with satisfactory long-term outcomes. It is suggested that early elective surgical correction can be recommended for a patient whose diagnosis was made in utero.
