ABSTRACT
Objective To study the hemostnsis effects of compression cords oppressing after femoral artery puncture and encheiresis. Methods Self-made compression cords were used to stop bleeding of femoral artery puncture sites in 2164 patients underwent 3046 cases of arteriopuncture encheiresis. The total eases were divided into group A (1482 eases) and group B (1564 cases) according to different treatment of oppression and breaking duration which were 8-10 hours for group A and 5-6 hours for group B, the hemostasis effects, discomfortableness and related complications within two groups were evaluated. Results The proportion of patients who got good hemostasis effects were 99.2% in group A, 99.0% in group B. There was no difference in hemostasis effects between two groups (P> 0.05). While the rate of discomfortableness in group A (63.8%) was higher than that in group B(42.9%) (P<0.05). The related serious complications were 2 patients in group A, but no occurred in group B. Conclusion Self-made compression cords op- pressing and 5-6 hours breaking time course can achieve both finer hemostasis effect and lower frequency of complications after femoral artery puncture and encheiresis.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the efficiency, complications and probability of preserving part renal function by local renal microwave ablation. Methods The fresh pig renal pelvis full filled with 30% diatrizoate meglumine and the dogs kidney taken arterial pyelography were both ablated with microwave. Dogs were divided into three groups: measuring temperature after ablation group, single point ablation both on the two kidneys group and double points ablation on unilateral kidney group. In measuring temperature after ablation group, DSA and pathology were performed immediately after ablation. In the other groups, DSA with blood and urine samplings were taken for routine tests including renal function right after the ablation and 10 days later. Results Experiment in vitro showed conspicuous renal pelvic contraction and convolution. The group under power rate of 70, 3 min produced urine leak easily. Preliminary test in vivo with DSA showed the disappearance of local kidney blood supply. The residual renal function was related to areas of necrosis. Acute stage pathology revealed acute renal cortex medulla and pelvic cells injury. DSA of chronic stage showed no change in size of the area of ablation. The blood supply of necrotic areas was not restored. The residual kidney possessed the excretion contrast medium with no urine leaks. Upper pole of right kidney adhered with adjacent tissue, together with thickened covering. Pathology revealed fibrous proliferation around the coagulative necrosis. Conclusion Microwave ablation can inactivate the local renal tissue, and, effectively preserve the big blood vessels and function of residual kidney. No urine leaks occurred in chronic stage but easily to produce adhesions with adjacent tissue.
ABSTRACT
Objective To discuss the DSA characteristics of primary hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC) and to investigate the relationship between the DSA findings and the expression of tumor’s vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Methods Fifty-four patients with pathologically-proved primary HCC were enrolled in this study. The DSA findings, including tumor’s size, lesion’s number, lesion’s margin, the degree of blood supply, the presence or absence of artreiovnous shunting (AVS), etc. were observed and analyzed. The qualitative test of VEGF of HCC tissue was made by using Elivision TMplus method, and based on the stain degree and the percentage of the positive cells a comprehensive analyse was carried out. With HE stain the pathologic classification was conducted by using Edmmond method. In this study, grade I and II were regarded as well-differentiated group and grade III and IV were regarded as poorly-differentiated group. The data were processed by software SPSSS13.0 and the results were statistically analyzed. Results The expression degree of VEGF in HCC tissue was related to the blood supply pattern, the lesion’s number, the integrity of the tumor’s border and the degree of differentiation (P 0.05). Conclusion Some DSA manifestations of primary HCC bear a certain relationship to the VEGF content in the tumor tissue. Through observing the DSA characteristics, the assessment of the invasion and metastasis of HCC can be well made, which will afford the clinical physicians a useful reference in making individualized therapeutic schedule and in estimating the prognosis.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the diagnostic value of hysterosalpingography in infertility caused by salpingian obstraction.Methods 892 cases of femiles infertility were reported in the group,ranged in age from 20 to 36 years and the mean age was 26 years.The hysterosalpingography was taken under fluoroscopic guidance during third to 7th day after menstruction,the radiographes were taken and analysed.The different segments and shapes of salpingian obstruction were correspondently divided into 3 levels and 3 degrees respectively according to the different therapeatic methods for infertility.Results There were total 776 cases with salpingian obstructional infertility,of them,both side involved in 582 cases,and one side in 194 cases,the total of abnormal fallopian were 1358 tubes including 1 st level 423,2nd level 561;3rd level 374,1 st degree 263,2nd degree 553 and 3rd degree 542.Conclusion Hysterosalpingography plays an important role in the therapy and diagnosis of the inferility caused by salpingian obstraction.
