Hydrops Fetalis Caused by Fetal Kasabach-Merritt Syndrome

There have been only 2 previous reports of nonimmunologic hydrops fetalis (NIHF) caused by fetal Kasabach-Merritt syndrome, both of which were pathological studies. This is the first clinical case report of NIHF due to fetal Kasabach-Merritt syndrome that was prenatally diagnosed by sonography, computerized tomography, and percutaneous umbilical blood sampling.     

Endoscopically controlled sinus floor augmentation. A preliminary report.

Sinus augmentation has been advocated to be a surgical technique with predictable results in peri‐implant surgery. Endoscopic surgery of the maxillary sinus so far has been used as diagnostic procedure. In this paper, the use of endoscopy is described as a low invasive adjunctive technique in sinus floor augmentation. After preparation of the mucoperiosteum, bone grafts can be placed under endoscopic control between sinus floor and mucoperiosteum. A laterobasal approach via a small osteotomy and a transalveolar approach are possible for mucosal elevation and graft placement. First clinical results are reported. Endoscopic sinus lift may contribute to a reduction of perioperative morbidity, reduction of oroantal fistulae and control of graft position. The less invasive technique may allow to extend the indication for sinus augmentation.     

经皮弧式椎间盘切除器械治疗腰5骶1椎间盘突出症初步报告

采用经皮弧式椎间盘切除器械治疗Ｌ_５～Ｓ_１椎间盘突出症２２例，２１例成功。术后优良率为８６．４％。该器械能够避开髂嵴阻挡进入Ｌ_５～Ｓ_１椎间隙，并增加椎间盘切除量，提高经皮Ｌ_５～Ｓ_１椎间盘切除成功率。定位正确是成功的关键。     

双氯灭痛药膜体外透皮速率的实验研究

作者选择乙基纤维素、聚乙烯醇等高分子材料制成涂膜剂，用大鼠皮进行双氯灭痛药膜的体外透皮速率测定。结果表明，氮酮与丙二醇可以促进药物渗透。不同的高分子材料可影响药物的扩散与释放，从而影响其透皮速率。与无膜无促透剂处方相比，药物在乙基纤维素中的透皮速率没有增加，在聚乙烯醇膜中的透皮速率有显著增加。     

A Clinical Study for the Durability of Oxygenators on Cardiopulmonary Support

Abstract: Cardiopulmonary support (CPS) requires durability of the oxygenator. The life span of the oxygenator is affected by various clinical factors, including patient condition, perfusion condition, and equipment usage. Predictors for the durability of oxygenators were evaluated clinically in this study. Thirty-two patients, who had undergone CPS during the last 3 years in our institute were assigned to this study. Fifty oxygenators had been used (Capiox SX in 19, CB Maxima in 23, and AL-6000 in 8). Significant predictors for the durability of oxygenators were evaluated by nonparametric survival analysis and proportional hazards regression analysis. Univariate regression analysis revealed 6 significant predictors for the life span of oxygenators. These were the oxygenator type, type of centrifugal pump, acidosis with blood pH less than 7.35, base excess less than -5, blood glutamic-oxaloacetic transaminase (GOT) levels greater than 1,000 IU, and blood lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) levels greater than 3,000 IU. After multivariate analysis, there remained only 2 significant predictors. An oxygenator used with a noncoated CPS system (Capiox SX with Capiox EBS) proved to have a significantly shorter life span than one used with a heparin-coated system (CB Maxima or AL-6000 with CB BP-80) (hazards ratio, 3.588, p = 0.0065). Patient conditions, which revealed acidosis with less than -5 of base excess, significantly shortened the life of the oxygenator (hazards ratio, 3.595, p = 0.0188).     

The postoperative recurrence of crohn's disease: An analysis of 37 patients with crohn's disease who underwent endoscopy during initial surgery

A total 37 patients with Crohn's disease who underwent intraoperative endoscopy during resection of the affected intestine were evaluated in this study. The average age of the patients at surgery was 23.2 years. The residual lesions in the remaining intestine identified by intraoperative endoscopy were classified according to their pathologic profiles into three groups: A, B and C. In group A, comprising patients with longitudinal ulcers and/or a cobblestone appearance, 10 of 12 patients had recurrence. In 5 of these 10, the residual lesions were exacerbated and 2 required a further operation. The remaining 5 patients showed recurrence at the site of previous anastomosis and 2 of these 5 required additional surgery.In group B, comprising patients with small ulcers, aphthoid ulcers, or scars, and group C, comprising patients with no residual lesions, recurrence was observed in 13 of 16, and 3 of 9 patients, respectively. The recurrent lesions were all found proximal to, or at the site of previous anastomosis. Additional operations were performed on 3 of the group B patients. The findings of this study revealed that recurrence requiring additional surgery is more frequent at the site of anastomosis, regardless of the endoscopic appearance of the residual lesions.
