Objective To summarize the experience of open heart operation on neonates with critical and complex congenital heart diseases and evaluate the methods of perioperative management. Methods From May 2001 to January 2003, 12 patients of neonates with congenital heart diseases underwent emergency operation. Their operating ages ranged from 6 to 30 days, the body weights were 2.8 to 4.5 kg. Their diagnoses included D-transposition of the great arteries in 4 cases, ventricular septal defect with atrial septal defect in 5 cases, complete atrioventricular septal defect, obstructed supracardiac total anomalous pulmonary venous drainage and cardiac rhabdomyomas in 1 case respectively. 12 cases were operated under moderate or deep hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass. Results All cases were observed in ICU for 2-11 days and discharged 7-19 days after operation. The postoperative complications included low cardiac output, mediastinal infection, respiratory distress syndrome, systemic capillary leak syndrome and acute renal failure. All cases were cured and the follow-up (from 6 months to 2 years) showed satisfactory outcome. Conclusion A particular cardiopulmonary bypass and proper perioperative management is very important to ensure the successful outcome. Peritoneal dialysis is an effective and safe method for treating acute renal failure after cardiac operation in neonates.
Objective To understand the latest research developments of the formation mechanism of psammoma body in human tumors and related issues. Methods Related domestic and foreign literatures were widely referred, analyzed, and reviewed. Results Psammoma body is unique pathological calcification in some tumors, which is arranged in concentric, laminar circles microscopically. Psammoma body is commonly seen in thyroid papillary carcinoma, meningiomas, ovarian serous papillary carcinoma, and so on. Conclusions Although arranged in concentric, laminar circles microscopically in tumor, the formation process of psammoma body is not entirely the same in different tumors. A comprehensive and objective understanding of psammoma body would be useful in cancer diagnosis and treatment.
Objective To summarize the visual outcome of patients with severe ocular trauma treated with vitreous surgery. Methods Clinical data of 188(191 eyes) with severe ocular trauma treated with vitreous surgery in a period from November 1996 to April 1998 were analysed retrospectively. Results The study included penetrating injury in 56 eyes, foreign bodies in the posterior segment in 70 eyes, blunt injury in 41 eyes , and globe rupture in 24 eyes. Main complications included endophthalmitis in 35 eyes, choroidal bleeding in 20 eyes, retinal detachment in 60 eyes, and vitreous hemorrhage in 97 eyes. Post-opera-tively, out of 188 eyes, except for 3 of patients too young to examine, visual acuity improved in 133(70.7%), including 85(45.2%) with visal acuity 0.02-1.0, 46(24.5%) remained unchanged; and 9(4.8%) had worse vision. Among 34 with no-light-perception, 12 had light-perception or over. Conclusion A majority of severe trauma eyes can be salvaged with considerable visual recovery after adequate and timely vitreous surgery. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,1999,15:4-6)
In order to observe the histological changes of the autogenous perichondrium graft from rib in the repair of injured articular cartilage of the condylar process of mandible, 50 rabbits were used, in which 15 were served as control. The articular cartilage with its subchondral bone were resected and an autogenous graft of costal perichondrium was sutured onto the raw surface of the condylar process, and in the controls, only the articular portion of the condylar process was resected without the application of autogenous costal perichondrium graft. The morphological changes of the newly formed cartilage during the process of its development were investigated by hiostological and autoradiog aphic techniques. The result revealed that 10 days after operation, the graft had increased in thickness and was richly populated form the proliferation of mesenchyme-like cells. Twenty to thirty days later, the chondrocytes were matured and the newly formed cartilage had covered the bony surface of mandibular condyle. At 60 days, the newly formed cartilagenous joint surface became glossy, and the morphology and arrangement of cells tended to be regular simulating the morphology of normal articular cartilage. From the experiment, it could be concluded that (1) The autogenous perichondrium graft placed on the condylar surface of mandible could form new articular cartilage which was similar in tissue morphology to the normal condylar cartilage. (2) The process of development of newly formed cartilage was similar to that of the normal cartilage. (3) The motion and loading on the joint could promote the formation of new cartilage and undergo biological reformation, gradually resulting in normal joint morphology. On this basis, the clinical application of autogenous perichondrium graft to repair injured cartilage of the condylar process of the mandible was feasible.
目的 探討不同水溫對大鼠鼻黏膜的損傷及恢復情況。 方法 126只健康成年SD大鼠隨機分為A、B、C組，每組42只；A組：常溫；B組：50℃；C組：70℃。另設健康成年SD大鼠2只，使用不同溫度生理鹽水滴入實驗組大鼠雙鼻中隔黏膜30次，每分鐘1次。分別于第30分鐘，1、3、7、14、28、42 d各取6只大鼠的刺激區鼻中隔黏膜，對照組取相應區域黏膜制作光、電鏡標本觀察其病理形態學改變。 結果 A組各時間的光鏡下結構正常，在電鏡下1、3 d有輕微改變，7 d后基本恢復。B組第30分鐘、1 d在鏡下有明顯損傷，尤其在3 d達嚴重損傷， 14 d后基本恢復。C組第30分鐘，1、3 d在鏡下表現出嚴重損傷，28 d后有少數恢復，42 d后仍未能完全恢復。 結論 常溫對大鼠鼻黏膜病理形態學改變較輕，恢復時間短。溫度越高、刺激時間越長則病理形態學改變越重，恢復時間越長。
Objective To introduce the application of the scrotal flap on reconstructing partial urethra defect. Methods From March 1998 to August 2004, 31 patients with urethra defect were treated with scrotal flap. Their ages ranged from6 to 34 years. Thirty-one patients included 8 cases of congenital deformity of urethra and 23 cases of complication of urethral fistula, urethral stenosis and phallus bend after hypospadias repair. The flap widths were 1. 2. cm in child and 2.3. cm in adult. The flap lengthwas 1. -2.0 times as much as the width. Nine cases were classified as penile type, 10 cases as penoscrotal type, 7 cases as scrotal type(3 children in association withcleft scrotum) and -cases as perrineal type because of pseudohermaphroditism.Urethroplasty was given by scrotal fascia vascular net flap to reconstruct urethra defect. Results All the flaps survived, and the incision healed well. Twenty four cases achieved healing by first intention and 7 cases by second intention. And fistula occurred and healed after 2 weeks in 1 case. 27 cases were followed up 14 years, 2 cases had slight chordee, the others were satisfactivly. Conclusion Urethroplasty with scrotal fascia vascular net flap is an ideal method for the partial defect urethra.
