Laparoscopic treatment of nonparasitic cysts of the liver with omental transposition flap

Background: Between 1991 and November 1994, 18 patients with large, solitary, nonparasitic liver cysts underwent laparoscopic deroofing; the last 13 of them also received an omental transposition flap in addition. Methods: Using three to four trocars, the cystic contents were first aspirated, and the cyst derooted widely using diathermia. An omental transposition flap was fashioned and stapled into the cyst cavity itself. Results: Postoperative complications included one case of pulmonary atelectasis. Another patient developed a subhepatic bile collection which was aspirated percutaneously. On average, patients were discharged on the 4th (2–14) postoperative day. Follow-up was performed with abdominal ultrasound for 2–43 months (mean 19 months). There were two early cyst recurrences, both in cases without an omental transposition flap (overall recurrence rate, 11%; in patients with omental flap, 0). Conclusions: Deroofing in combination with an omental transposition flap is a safe and effective therapy for symptomatic solitary liver cysts and can be performed using minimal-access surgical techniques.

B超,CT与DSA对肝癌介入治疗的指导价值

对１２６列原发性肝癌与３７例转移性肝癌介入治疗前均进行了Ｂ超、ＣＴ与数字减影血管造影（ＤＳＡ）检查。ＤＳＡ显示原发性肝癌多数血供丰富，而转移性肝癌以少血供者为主；ＣＴ显示小病灶的敏感性稍差，病灶的密度和均匀性与血供多少有一定关系，但特异性不高，而病灶的增强次应与血供关系密切，多血供者中９５％有显示的增强效应，少血供者仅占４．７％；Ｂ超所示病灶的回声高低与血供亦有一定关系，但特异性稍差。结果表明，Ｄ

Effect of various stabilizing agents on Imperata cylindrica grass pollen allergen extract

BACKGROUND: Allergen extracts are unstable, heat labile or susceptible to proteases. Stability of allergen extracts is important for proper diagnosis and therapy of allergic disorders. OBJECTIVE: The present study was undertaken to determine the preservation and stabilization conditions of Imperata cylindrica (Ic) grass pollen extract. METHODS: The Ic extract was kept with 0.1 mepsilon-aminocaproic acid (EACA), 0.75 m sucrose, 5% glycerol, 0.03% human serum albumin (HSA) or 0.4% phenol for different time periods. The extracts were stored for 3, 6 and 12 months each at 4 degrees C, 4 degrees C with daily exposure to room temperature (RT) for 1 h, and RT. The quality of extracts was analysed by SDS-PAGE, Western blot, ELISA, ELISA inhibition and skin test. RESULTS: Extracts kept with EACA and sucrose retained most of the protein bands followed by glycerol as determined by SDS-PAGE and Western blot during all storage periods and conditions in comparison with standard extracts. The extracts kept with HSA, phenol and without preservative (WP) showed protein degradation below 33 kDa after 3 months storage at all conditions. However, a 67-kDa allergen was stable in these extracts. EACA extract required 75 to 120 ng of protein for 50% inhibition in IgE binding under different conditions, whereas standard extract required 70 ng for the same. ELISA also demonstrated high allergenic reactivity of EACA extract. ID test on allergy patients with EACA extract demonstrated same allergenic potency as that of standard extract. CONCLUSION: EACA is the best preservative/stabilizing agent of Ic pollen extract, followed by sucrose and glycerol. Ic extract kept with phenol, HSA and without preservative showed degradation within 3 months. EACA preserved extract is equally potent as that of standard extract up to 1 year's storage.     

肝腺瘤的影像学诊断

目的探讨影像学(US、CT、MRI及DSA)诊断肝腺瘤的价值。方法回顾性分析经手术、病理证实的11例肝腺瘤的影像学表现,其中11例行US和CT检查(有1例行CT灌注成像,CTP),5例行MRI扫描,4例行DSA检查,并与手术病理所见对照。结果11例肝腺瘤均为单发肿块,无肝硬化背景,直径2.0～10.0cm。影像学表现:US检查,10例呈稍低或不均匀稍强回声,边界清晰,6例见低回声晕,彩色多普勒显示肿块内有较丰富的血流;CT检查,10例为稍低或等密度,8/10例动脉期全瘤明显强化,门脉期轻度强化,延迟期呈等密度,1例平扫和延迟期呈等密度,动脉期中度强化,门脉期轻度强化,误诊为血管瘤。1/11例CT灌注成像(CTP)检查,肝动脉灌注量(HAP)=1.08ml/(min.ml),门静脉灌注量(PVP)=0.19ml/(min.ml),肝动脉灌注指数(HPI)=0.85,各参数值与肝癌均有明显不同;MRI检查,5例肝腺瘤均能显示完整包膜,T1WI上2例稍高于肝脏信号,1例呈等信号,2例为稍低信号,T2WI上5例均表现为以稍高信号为主的混杂信号,脂肪抑制像(STIR)1例呈略低信号,4例信号与T2WI相似,行增强扫描的4例病灶动脉期显著强化,门脉期强化减退,平衡期呈等信号。DSA检查,3/4例病灶见粗细不均的异常血管影,实质期可见肿瘤染色表现。结论肝腺瘤的US和DSA表现均缺乏特异性,CT、MRI则具有一定的特点。CTP对肝腺瘤可能具有诊断和鉴别诊断价值。

The predictive value of specific immunoglobulin E levels for the first diagnosis of cow''s milk allergy. A critical analysis of pediatric literature

Investigators have tried to identify a level of seric specific immunoglobulin E (IgE) that had a sufficient predictive value to diagnose a food allergy without having will resort to the food challenge. To search in literature, all the studies that have estimated the possibility to identify a level of seric specific cow milk IgE with a positive predictive value (PPV) of 95% for the first diagnosis of cow's milk allergy (CMA) in pediatric age. We have identified six studies, nearly all studies suffer from relevant methodological bias. Proposed cut-off are all different. The studied pediatric populations were highly selected. Also neglecting the methodological bias of the studies and the great difference of value between the proposed cut-off, it always remains to consider that the pre-test probability of having a CMA between the children enrolled in the six studies included in this review is particularly high. The likelihood ratio helps to transfer the results of a study on a diagnostic test just to our population, and it is more realistic rather than to entrust itself to the PPV or the negative predictive value, that are much influenced from the prevalence of the disease in the studied population.
