回盲部恶性肿瘤的诊治

目的：分析回盲部恶性肿瘤的诊断和治疗过程，总结经验．以期提高早期确诊率和患者生存率。方法：回顾性分析近5年53例住院治疗的回盲部恶性肿瘤患者的临床资料。结果：53例患者中腺癌、黏液腺癌50例，恶性淋巴瘤3例。首次确诊率为75．5％。误诊或延迟诊断的疾病主要为阑尾炎、阑尾脓肿，胆囊炎、胆石症、下消化道出血、贫血待查等。结论：60岁以上的老年患者为回盲部恶性肿瘤的主要人群，肿瘤类型主要为腺癌。尽管首发症状缺乏特异性，但提高警觉性，详细询问病史，通过大便隐血试验、钡灌肠或气钡双重造影、纤维结肠镜检查仍能有效的提高首次确诊率，积极手术冶疗，可显著改善患者的预后。     

合并乙肝的涂阳肺结核病人DOTS中肝损害观察

目的 观察免费板式组合药在DOTS中对合并乙肝的涂阳肺结核病人肝损害情况。方法 比较HBsAg、HBeAg、HBcAb阳性的涂阳肺结核病人与无乙肝的涂阳肺结核病人DOTS前后肝功能损害情况。结果 合并乙肝病人肝损害发生率66．3％，无乙肝者肝损害发生率8．6％，两者相比差异有显著性（P〈0．01）。22．5％病人因肝损害需更改治疗方案。结论 DOTS中合并乙肝的病人采用板式组合药用2H3R3Z3E3／4H3R3方案易发生肝损害，对这类病人应慎用常规方案，并要密切全程观察肝功能，尽可能应用肝损害较小的抗结核药。

Arthroscopic treatment of lateral epicondylitis: Indication, technique and early results

The purpose of this study is to present the results of the arthroscopic treatment of lateral epicondylitis. Twenty patients with lateral epicondylitis (mean age 42 years) were treated arthroscopically. The average duration of symptoms prior to surgery was 14 months. The arthroscopic joint inspection showed an intact capsule in seven patients (type-I lesion), in eight patients a linear capsule tear (type-II lesion) and in six patients a complete rupture of the capsule (type-III lesion). An associated intraarticular pathology was documented in eight patients. Within an average follow-up period of 1.8 years, local pain and function were documented and analyzed. Subjective pain at rest was reduced from 5.0 to 0.5 points, pain at daily living activities from 6.0 to 1.0 points and pain at athletic activities from 7.3 to 1.2 points in the VAS score. Function increased from 5.2 to an average value of 10.9 (max. 12 points). Patients returned back to work after 3.2 weeks. In conclusion, the arthroscopic release in patients with radial epicondylitis is a reproducible method with a marked postoperative increase in function within a short rehabilitation period.     

Urological emergency in neonates with congenital hydronephrosis

OBJECTIVE: It is well described that unilateral pelviureteric junction obstruction (PUJO) is a benign condition, because the dilatation resolves spontaneously and the function does not decrease in most of the kidneys. However, there is exceptional PUJO that requires emergent treatment in neonatal periods. The aim of this article is to report the urological emergency and management in neonates with PUJO. MATERIALS AND METHODS: Nine children (seven boys and two girls) with PUJO who underwent neonatal emergent treatment during the last 13 years were reviewed. Renal function was evaluated according to decay curve of serum creatinine (SCr) levels corresponding to gestational age (GA) at delivery. Physical examination, ultrasonographic monitoring, and chest and abdominal plain radiographs were repeated in each neonate. RESULTS: Eight patients were detected prenatally. In five patients, multicystic dysplastic kidney (MCDK) was demonstrated on the contralateral side. Three patients underwent percutaneous puncture of fetal hydronephrosis. Decrease of amniotic fluid was evident in three fetuses. Indications for emergent treatment included mass effect from hydronephrosis in three patients, renal dysfunction in five, and severe urinary tract infection in one. During neonatal periods, a percutaneous nephrostomy tube was placed in seven, and open nephrostomy in one with anorectal malformation. Repeated punctures of the dilated renal pelvis were done in one patient. Renal function after pyeloplasty was stable in eight patients, while it was moderately decreased in one who was associated with oligohydramnios in utero. CONCLUSION: Indications for emergent treatment in neonates with PUJO included mass effect from giant hydronephrosis, renal dysfunction and severe urinary tract infection. At birth, respiratory and circulatory conditions must first be stabilized. In neonates with hydronephrosis of the solitary kidney or severe bilateral PUJO, serial SCr should be monitored to evaluate renal function. Decrease of amniotic fluid suggested renal functional compromise that would not recover after urological management.     

Open rhinoplasty for treatment of nasal tip haemangioma

Haemangiomas are the most common tumours of infancy. They typically proliferate then involute with considerable variation as regards to their rates of proliferation and involution. Haemangioma of the nasal tip is a lesion of special characteristics. During proliferation, it expands, contracts and deviates the nasal cartilages. Particularly, it regresses slowly and frequently involutes incompletely. That is why excision of the lesion is frequently suggested. The present study was conducted to evaluate open rhinoplasty after initial non-excision treatment modalities namely, intra-lesional corticosteroid injections and laser treatment, as a protocol of treatment for nasal tip haemangiomas. Twelve patients with nasal tip haemangiomas were included in the present study. Patients of both sexes, of different ages, with deep and mixed haemangiomas were studied. Disfigurement was the constant presenting symptom. Initial non-excision treatment reported different responses as denoted by the regression of the lesions’ size. Haemangiomas constantly extended between the medial crura of the alar cartilages as noted by the constant widening of the columella pre-operatively and the obvious separation of the nasal cartilages intra-operatively. This separation was constantly found to require approximation by sutures. The results of the present study concluded that whenever an early presentation with nasal tip haemangioma could be established, initial non-excision treatment followed by open rhinoplasty could be a useful protocol of treatment. Within the limitations of the present study, this protocol could achieve an early, safe and effective treatment for nasal tip haemangiomas with provisionally acceptable cosmetic outcomes so far.     

Spinal arteriography: a primer

Spinal arteriography is an esoteric procedure that is seldom nerformed by peripheral interventionalists. This presentation is intended to outline some of the essential points that the interventionalist performing the procedure should be aware of,especially about spinal dural arierioyenous fistulae (SDAVF).
