Laparoscopic repair/peritoneal toilet of perforated duodenal ulcer

Summary Laparoscopic techniques have been refined to the point where exposure, haemostasis and tissue approximation by suture approach those obtained at open access surgery. We report a patient with acute perforation of an ulcer in the first part of the duodenum who was successfully treated by laparoscopic oversewing and omental patching. The clinical indications for contemplating use of laparoscopic surgery for acute ulcer perforation, techniques employed and the areas for potential improvement of instruments, needles and sutures are discussed.     

Isolated oculomotor nerve paralysis in Lyme disease: MRI

Lyme disease is a cause of illness involving multiple organ systems, including, in 10–15 % of cases, the nervous system. Peripheral radiculoneuritis, cranial neuritis, encephalitis and myelitis are among the neurological manifestations found in the second and third stages. We present the MRI findings in isolated oculomotor nerve involvement by Lyme disease and discuss the differential diagnosis. Received: 14 June 1995 Accepted: 16 January 1996     

狗脊髓截除自体隐神经大网膜移植的初步观察

实验用6只狗于T13处切除脊髓8mm，局部用隐神经、大网膜移植。对照组6只狗单纯切除脊髓8mm。术后3个月、6个月实验组动物全部恢复到C／Ⅲ级功能，组织学切片见移植神经有不同程度存活，可记录到股四头肌、胫前肌电位。对照组动物仅达到0／0～A／I织功能，组织学切片见脊髓缺损处为结缔组织，诱电位波形消失。分析了影响脊髓神经功能恢复的原因。     

神经移位修复臂丛神经根性撕脱伤

１９８７年７月～１９９４年６月，对２１例臂丛神经根性撕脱伤采用神经移位修复。其中复合移位４组神经（膈神经、副神经、颈丛运动支、肋间神经）者１例，３组（膈神经、副神经、颈丛运动支）者６例，２组（膈神经、副神经）者９例，１组（膈神经或颈丛运动支或肋间神经）者５例。术中发现臂丛神经变异１例，对４例合并锁骨下动脉损伤者，在神经移位的同时进行血管修复，促进患肢的血液循环，有利于神经的康复。随访到１９例，随访时间为８个月～６年２个月，优良率达７３．７％。认为，神经移位术是修复神经根性撕裂伤的常规方法，合并血管损伤者也应同时修复，对促进神经功能恢复有利     

血管植入神经移植段修复神经缺损的实验研究

54只大白鼠随机分三组，用不同方法修复坐骨神经缺损，术后60天和90天取材，作电生理、组织学和电镜观察的比较，结果表明：游离神经移植＋血管植入方法和带血管蒂神经移植效果同样好，二者均显著优于单纯游离神经移植。     

乙酰胆硷和电刺激迷走神经对HC1引起的大鼠胃粘膜损伤的保护作用

本工作观察了乙酰胆硷(Ach)和电刺激迷走神经对0.6N HCl引起的胃粘膜出血性损伤的保护作用,发现皮下注射50μg/kg的氯化Ach和电刺激膈下迷走神经5min,可明显降低HCl引起的胃粘膜出血量,这一作用可被消炎痛及阿托品所阻断。提示这种保护作用是通过依赖于M-受体的内源性前列腺素。     

Study of nerve regeneration in centrocentral anastomosis

Summary Nerve regeneration was studied in a model of centrocentral anastomosis (CCA) performed on the sciatic nerve of the rat. Experimental CCA was made by suturing the proximal end of the peroneal branch on the proximal end of the sural branch, placing between them a peroneal nerve graft (Group I, 20 rats) or a silicone chamber (Group II, 12 rats). Nerve grafts had a length of 5mm and silicone chambers 7 mm. In six silicone chambers an 1 mm nerve graft was placed in the centre of the tube. In group I animals anterograde degeneration was studied by cutting the graft 60 days after surgery. In group II, nerve regeneration was studied 2, 4 and 8 weeks after surgery. Results indicate that in CCA: 1) regenerated axons coming from one nerve end grow into the graft but do not cross the contralateral suture line; 2) regeneration is poorer in silicone chambers than in nerve grafts; and, 3) in silicone chambers regeneration is related to time. The reduction in the regenerative capability in CCA seems to be related to the alteration of nerve sprouts aiming for the peripheral targets.     

雪旺细胞源运动神经营养蛋白对周围神经再生的影响

目的：研究雪旺细胞源运动神经营养蛋白对周围神经再生的影响。方法：６０只ＳＤ大鼠均分为３组，Ａ和Ｂ组分别在桥接于大鼠右侧坐骨神经断端之间的硅胶管内加入２６ＫＤ和５０ＫＤ的雪旺细胞源运动神经营养蛋白，Ｃ组加ＰＢＳ液作为对照。术后１～６月每隔半月测定实验侧坐骨神经功能指数，术后３月测定实验侧坐骨神经的电生理和形态学指标。结果：Ａ和Ｂ组实验侧坐骨神经的功能指数、电生理和形态学指标与Ｃ组比较，差别有非常显著性。结论：２６ＫＤ和５０ＫＤ雪旺细胞源运动神经营养蛋白对周围神经再生有促进作用。     

VASOCONSTRICTION IN THE RENAL VASCULAR BED DURING EXERCISE: STUDIES IN CONTROL AND HEART FAILURE RABBITS

1. The effects of graded treadmill exercise on renal blood flow (RBF) were examined in seven rabbits, in which congestive heart failure (CHF) was produced by the administration of doxorubicin, 1 mg/kg, twice weekly for 8 weeks, and in seven controls. A third group of five rabbits underwent doxorubicin treatment with the addition of surgical section of the left renal sympathetic nerve. 2. During submaximal exercise, there was a small reduction in RBF in controls, which was greatly exaggerated in CHF. 3. In both control and heart failure rabbits, there was a precipitous fall in RBF as exercise fatigue developed. 4. Renal sympathectomy ablated these changes in RBF during exercise. 5. It is concluded that in heart failure there is an exaggerated, sympathetically mediated, diversion of blood flow away from the kidney. The onset of exercise fatigue in both normal and heart failure rabbits is accompanied by a marked intensification of this process.
