ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the efficacy of microsurgery treatment with small craniotomy lateral fissure approach for hyperten-sive basal ganglia intracranial hemorrhage. Methods From December 2013 to February 2015, 30 patients with hypertensive basal ganglia intracranial hemorrhage ( blood loss within 30~60 mL) were analyzed respectively. Summarized the methods and techniques of this microsur-gery treatment and analyzed its advantages and disadvantages compared with the traditional operation. Results The hematomas were excluded more than 90% which were proved by reexamination after opreation. There was one case of temporal lobe infarction,but there was no re-bleed case and death case. The recovery of consciousness is good, and the limb function and language function were improved by early rehabilitation treatment. Conclusion Microsurgery treatment with small craniotomy lateral fissure approach for hypertensive basal ganglia intracerebral hemorrhage has the advantages of minimal invasion,complete hematoma removal and low complication and disability rates, which is worthy of promotion and application.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the roles of endoscopic biopsy and third ventriculostomy in the diagnosis and treatment of pineal region tumors in children. Methods Endoscopic biopsy and third ventriculostomy were performed in 9 pediatric patients with pineal region tumors. Results Successful third ventriculostomy, confirmed by MRI, was performed in 9 cases of children with obstructive hydrocephalus. No complications were found in all patients. Conclusion Endoscopic biopsy and third ventriculostomy are effective neuroendoscopic procedures in minimally invasive preferential management of pineal region tumors.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the expression of neuron-specific enolase(NSE) and bone morphogenic protein 4(BMP4) in different hippocampal areas of pentylenetetrazol(PTZ) kindled epilepsy rats and explore their relationship with the pathogenesis of epilepsy and brain injury.Methods Fifty male SD rats were divided into experimental group(n=40) and control group(n=10).The rats in experimental group were kindled into epilepsy by chemical method,and according to the kindling process,subdivided into four groups(grade Ⅰ,Ⅲ,Ⅳ,Ⅴ).Immunohistochemistry,in situ hybridization labeled with Dig-oligonucleotide probe and the image analyzing system were used to observe the expressions of NSE and BMP4 in rat hippocampus.Results In PTZ kindled epilepsy rats,the number of cells positive for NSE and BMP4 was increased in many regions of hippocampal formation.Compared with control group,the expressions of NSE and BMP4 in CA3 and DG was elevated obviously in the grade Ⅲ group and grade Ⅳ group(P
