Femoral and iliac vein stenoses after prolonged femoral vein catheter insertion.

BACKGROUND/AIMS: Catheterization of the femoral vein is a safe and recommended method of temporary access for haemodialysis. In some patients, however, because of the lack of other possibilities, it is necessary to maintain long-term femoral cannulation. The aim of the study was to evaluate the frequency of stenosis after prolonged femoral cannulation. METHODS: The 24 patients incorporated in the study were divided into two groups. Group 1 consisted of 10 end-stage kidney failure patients (four females and six males, aged 32-75 years, average 55.6+/-13.6 years) in whom femoral catheters were maintained for less than 2 weeks (5-14 days, average 9.3+/-3.6 days). Group 2 included 14 chronic haemodialysis patients (six females and eight males aged 23-65 years, average 49.5+/-13.27 years). The time of catheter maintenance ranged from 2 to 16 weeks (average 6.4+/-4.2 weeks). Femoral and iliac vein status was evaluated using magnetic resonance imaging. RESULTS: A feature of venous stenosis of both the femoral and iliac veins was disclosed in four patients in whom femoral cannulation lasted more than 4 weeks. There were no stenoses in group 1. CONCLUSION: Long-term femoral cannulation for more than 4 weeks may be associated with a significant risk of stenosis in the femoral and/or external iliac veins.     

三氧化二砷对人脐静脉内皮细胞中蛋白激酶C活性和白细胞介素-15分泌、表达的影响及其临床意义

目的 通过研究三氧化二砷(As2O3)对人脐静脉内皮细胞(HUVEC)中蛋白激酶C(PKC)活性和白细胞介素(IL)-15表达和分泌的影响,探讨内皮细胞在As2O3抑制白血病或肿瘤中的作用。方法用不同浓度的As2O3作用于培养的HUVEC细胞,测定其生长情况、胞膜和胞浆PKC活性以及对IL-15基因表达和分泌的影响。结果0.25 μmol／L~50 μmol／L的.As2O3均抑制HUVEC细胞的增殖(P<0.01),随着药物浓度或作用时间的增加,细胞逐渐死亡。在As2O3作用细胞4 h测定胞浆和胞膜的PKC活性,两者在不同浓度作用下活性水平均得到提升(P<0.01),但胞膜的活性上升幅度更大。在As2O3的测定浓度范围内,PKC的活性水平与As2O3的浓度呈正相关。1、5、16 μmol／L的As2O3导致IL-15基因表达和分泌水平的增加(P<0.01),并呈浓度依赖性关系。结论As2O3可能是通过激活内皮细胞的PKC活性,促进IL-15或其他细胞因子的分泌,来抑制白血病或肿瘤发展的。     

USEFULNESS OF EUS IN PORTAL HYPERTENSION WITH ESOPHAGEAL VARICES

We investigated the relationship between esophageal varices and the collaterals by endoscopy and endoscopic ultrasound (20 MHz ultrasonic miniprobe; UMP). Moreover, we investigated the correlation between the collaterals around the esophagus and recurrence of esophageal varices in patients with portal hypertension who had undergone EIS. The collaterals were divided into two groups: peri‐esophageal collateral veins (peri‐ECVs) and para‐esophageal collateral veins (para‐ECVs). These were scored as mild or severe according to the stage of development. According to endoscopy, the varix form was significantly larger in severe the peri‐ECVs group than in mild the peri‐ECVs group. The prevalence of perforating veins increased according to the varix form. With regard to variceal recurrence, in patients with variceal recurrences, UMP findings included a significantly higher incidence of severe peri‐ECVs, a significantly larger diameter of perforating veins compared with patients without recurrence. In conclusion, the presence of severe peri‐ECVs and large perforating veins in the esophageal wall strongly correlates with occurrence and recurrence of esophageal varices in patients with portal hypertension. An understanding of these UMP abnormalities on the basis of hemodynamics around the esophagus is thought to be important for management of esophageal varices in patients with portal hypertension.     

TH胶胃冠状静脉栓塞术治疗门脉高压症

11例TH胶胃冠状静脉栓塞术临床治疗结果表明:(1)11例中的4例急性上消化道大出血患者均在12h左右出血基本停止,随访近一年未再发生出血现象。(2)10例半年后复查肝功能均有不同程度改善。(3)一年后复查食道钡餐透视X线平片发现8例患者食道静脉曲张有不同程度减轻。(4)11例中1例因术中急性肝功能衰竭死亡。因此我们认为此术式操作简便,手术创伤小、较易推广,是治疗门脉高压症合并食管胃底静脉曲张出血的一种有效方法。     

Percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty in a patient with paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria

Paroxysmal nocturnal hemoglobinuria (PNH) is an acquired chronic hemolytic anemia associated with an unusual susceptibility to hemolytic crisis, infection, and venous thrombosis which would be aggravated by a number of factors including surgery. We report a case of PNH undergoing percutaneous transluminal coronary angioplasty and discuss the corresponding perioperative management.     

MRI visualization of the aortic nipple

The aortic nipple, a small “pseudotumor” adjacent to the aortic arch, is the left superior intercostal vein. In our series of 40 patients it was demonstrated in six; all had a right upper thoracic mass and four had a superior vena caval syndrome. Coronal magnetic resonance, images (MRI) of the thorax were superior to all other imaging methods in demonstrating the nipple. It is concluded that in patients with masses in the right upper chest, coronal MR chest examinations are valuable in demonstrating an aortic nipple, a sign of impending present superior vena caval or innominate, vein obstruction.     

粉防己碱与牛磺酸合用对血小板聚集与血栓形成的影响
