目的 探讨Ⅰ型先天性胆总管囊肿的手术治疗。方法 回顾性分析笔者所在医院1987年3月至2011年6月期间收治的42例Ⅰ型先天性胆总管囊肿患者手术治疗后的效果。结果 本组中2例因并发腹膜炎先行囊肿外引流术后4周再行囊肿空肠吻合术;3例直接行囊肿空肠吻合术;35例行囊肿切除肝总管空肠Roux-en-Y吻合术;2例行囊肿切除间置空肠肝总管十二指肠吻合术。手术成功率为100%。5例内引流术(囊肿空肠吻合术)后均有不同程度的胆道感染症状。37例行囊肿根治术(即囊肿切除肝总管空肠Roux-en-Y吻合或间置空肠肝总管十二指肠吻合术)中有2例囊肿切除肝总管空肠Roux-en-Y吻合术后患者偶有右上腹隐痛不适,经X线钡餐检查,诊断为胆管逆行性感染,抗炎治疗有效;其余病例无腹痛、黄疸、发热、再生结石、吻合口狭窄、癌变及其他手术并发症。结论 囊肿外引流术仅作为急诊手术,待患者一般情况改善后再行第二次手术;囊肿根治术是治疗Ⅰ型先天性胆总管囊肿理想的手术方式。
Objective To study the expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS),endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS) and vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) in human gastric cancer and their relationship with tumor angiogenesis and to investigate the interaction of NOS and VEGF in gastric cancer. Methods The expression and distribution of VEGF, iNOS and eNOS in 34 gastric cancer specimens were detected with immunohistochemistry. Microvessel density (MVD) was counted with FⅧRAg immune specific staining. Results The expression rates of iNOS, eNOS and VEGF in 34 gastric cancers were 73.5%, 82.4% and 91.2% respectively. The expression of VEGF had a significant positive relation with iNOS, but not with eNOS. The MVDs of VEGF or iNOS positive gastric cancers were obviously higher than those of VEGF or iNOS negative gastric cancers. There was no significant difference between the MVDs of eNOS positive gastric cancers and eNOS negative ones. Conclusion MVD increases with increase of expression of VEGF and iNOS in gastric cancer. It is indicated that VEGF and iNOS can promote gastric cancer angiogenesis. VEGF and iNOS have a significant positive correlation, which suggests that in human gastric cancer, iNOS plays an important role in the production and action of VEGF.
The success of staged Fontan palliation for patients with single ventricle is related to low pulmonary vascular resistance (PVR). The complications of high PVR in Fontan physiology are numerous, such as low exercise tolerance, low cardiac output, ventricular function failure and protein-losing enteropathy; eventually it leads to failing Fontan. Therefore, a low PVR is crucial in Fontan patients. Now, targeted therapies decreasing PVR has been an advanced research hotspot in Fontan patients. In this review we present an overview of the safety and efficacy of the therapy with bosentan or sildenafil on elevated pulmonary artery pressure and pulmonary vascular resistance in Fontan patients.
Objective To explore risk factors related to acute kidney injury (AKI) in children who underwent corrective surgery for tetralogy of Fallot (TOF). Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 726 children with corrective procedures for TOF aged less than 3 years in our hospital from March 1st 2010 to March 1st 2013. Children with AKI were picked using Acute Kidney Injury Network criteria. Demographic and perioperative variables of the remaining patients were reviewed. Univariate analysis was performed to compare the AKI group (240 patients) with the non-AKI group (486 patients). Multivariable analysis was carried out to identify significant determinants of AKI. Results A total of 240 children were with AKI. The result of univariate analysis showed that there was a statistical difference in age, Nakata index, McGoon ratio, left ventricular end-diastolic volume index (LVEDVI), transannular right ventricular outflow tract (RVOT) patch, or fresh frozen plasma (FFP) in prime solution between the AKI group and the non-AKI group. Multivariable logistic regression showed that in older children (OR=1.425, 95% CI 1.071 to 1.983, P=0.011) with more transfusion of FFP in the priming solution (OR=1.486, 95% CI 1.325 to 2.674, P<0.001) led to higher morbidity of mild AKI. In addition, there was an increase in morbidity related to AKI when children had less Nakata index (OR=0.282, 95% CI 0.092 to 0.869, P=0.013). Conclusion Postoperative AKI increases in older children group. Infusion of more FFP in priming solution increases morbidity of AKI. The less Nakata index is significantly associated with severe AKI.
To compare the cl inical effect of total hi p arthroplasty (THA) using posterolateral conventional or minimally invasive incision. Methods From January 2007 to November 2007, 38 patients (41 hi ps) were treated with minimally invasive THA (mini-incision group), and 15 patients (15 hi ps) underwent conventional THA (conventional incision group). Mini-incision group: 23 males (25 hi ps) and 15 females (16 hi ps) aged (53.2 ± 15.5) years old; body mass index (BMI) was 23.4 ± 3.3; there were 20 cases (20 hips) of femoral neck fracture, 2 cases (2 hips) of primary osteoarthritis, 14 cases (16 hips) of stage III or IV aseptic necrosis of the femoral head, 2 cases (3 hips) of ankylosing spondyl itis involving hip joint; Harris hip score was 47.7 ± 5.5 and the course of disease was (4.5 ± 4.3) years. Conventional incision group: 7 males (7 hips) and 8 females (8 hips) aged (54.8 ± 10.8) years old; BMI was 26.1 ± 5.1; there were 8 cases (8 hips) of femoralneck fracture, 1 case (1 hip) of primary osteoarthritis, 5 cases (5 hips) of stage III or IV aseptic necrosis of the femoral head, 1 case (1 hip) of ankylosing spondyl itis involving hip joint; Harris hip score was 51.2 ± 4.3 and the course of disease was (3.8 ± 3.7) years. There were no statistically significant differences between two groups in the general information (P gt; 0.05). Results There were statistical differences between two groups in terms of incision length, perioperative blood loss, drainage volume and blood transfusion volume (P lt; 0.05), and no statistical differences were evident in operative time, abduction angle and the anteversion angle of acetabular cup (P gt; 0.05). All incisions healed by first intention and no early postoperative compl ications occurred. Two groups were followed for 12-22 months (average 18.3 months). All patients walked without the crutch at 2-3 months after operation. The Harris score of the mini-incision group and the conventional incision group 6 months after operation was 88.6 ± 3.6 and 85.8 ± 3.3, respectively, indicating there was no significant difference between two groups (P gt; 0.05), but there was significant difference between before and after operation (P lt; 0.05). Conclusion Compared with conventional THA, the minimaly incisive using posteroplateral approach THA has the merits of mini invasion, sl ight hemorrage, short hospital stay, minor compl ication, convenient management of femoral head and accurate prosthesis location. However, strict attention should be paid to operative indications.
Objective Tho evaluate the outcomes of early percutaneous occlusion of these residual major aortopulmonary collateral arteries after heart surgery. Methods This was a retrospective review of children undergoing early percutaneous embolization of major aortopulmonary collateral arteries after cardiac surgery. From January 2013 to February 2017, 52 consecutive patients with postoperative residual major aortopulmonary collateral arteries were treated with percutaneous embolization (38 males, 14 females; median age of 10.0 months, interquartile range 14.0 months; median weight 8.6 kg, interquartile range 4.4 kg). Fifty-one patients were cyanotic and 1 patient was acyanotic. Forty-nine patients underwent corrective surgery and 3 patients underwent B-T shunt. Results Typical symptoms and signs of major aortopulmonary collateral arteries included: elevated left atrial pressure; focal lung infiltration, pink or blood-stained frothy sputum. The median time interval from cardiac surgery to percutaneous occlusion of major aortopulmonary collateral arteries was 5 (9) d, median duration of mechanic ventilation support since occlusion was 72 (159) h, mechanic ventilation support was 239 (480) h and median duration of intensive care unit was 19 (29) d. There was no death in this group. Conclusion Angiocardiography could be able to demonstrate the existence of postoperative major aortopulmonary collateral arteries. The early percutaneous occlusion appears to be simple, safe and effective.
Objective To investigate the iron deficiency (ID) in children with congenital heart disease (CHD) and find high risk factors of ID. Methods The clinical data of 227 pediatric patients with CHD from February to June 2016 were retrospectively analyzed. The incidence of ID according to the result of iron metabolism examination (serum ferritin <12 μg/L as the diagnostic criteria) was investigated. According to their basic CHD types, patients were divided into a cyanotic group and an acyanotic group. We tried to find the high risk factors of ID in those pediatric CHD patients by comparing their age, gender, growth condition and blood routine test results. Results There were 19.8% pediatric CHD patients complicated by ID. The incidence of ID in the cyanotic patients was higher than that in the acyanotic patients (31.0% vs. 17.3%, P=0.045). In both groups, ID patients presented the characteristics of younger age, higher anemia rate, lower mean corpuscular volume (MCV), lower mean corpuscular hemoglobin (MCH), lower mean corpuscular-hemoglobin concentration (MCHC) and longer red blood cell distribution width (RDW). Conclusion Cyanosis, younger age (infant), anemia, decreased MCV, decreased MCH, decreased MCHC and increased RDW are high risk factors of ID in CHD children.
