Deep lingual arterial chemoembolization of tongue carcinoma with microcapsuled anticancer drug / 浙江大学学报（英文版）（B辑：生物医学和生物技术）

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>Microcapsule chemoembolism is a promising treatment of tumors. We describe a deep lingual arterial embolization of tongue carcinoma with microcapsuled carboplatinum.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Lingual artery cast specimens from cadavers were microscopically examined, and 78 patients with tongue cancer were recruited and treated with the deep lingual arterial embolization therapy.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Microcapsule embolism occurred approximately at the fifth or sixth level of the deep lingual artery branches. The five-year survival rate was 88.5% (69 out of 78), and the ten-year survival rate 52.6% (41 out of 78).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The deep lingual arterial embolization of tongue carcinoma with microcapsuled carboplatinum is an effective therapy to treat carcinoma in mid-margin or mid-body of the tongue.</p>

The effect of artificial bone implantation in cleft palate on the development of maxilla / 中华整形外科杂志

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To research the influence of palate bone implantation to the growth of maxilla in three dimensional direction.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>40 patients of congenital cleft palate type II with palate board damage were stochastically divide into the comparison group and bone planted group. In bone planted group, HA-Bone cement was used to repair palate tabular damage. All patients are 16 full year old, cephalometric radiograph and tooth cast model were measured and contrast analysis was applied.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>Planted bone group and the comparison group does not have the significance difference in both the maxilla length and maxilla hightness( P > 0.05); But there was significance difference in the width of post-part of the maxilla (P < 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>It could promote the growth of maxilla width in use of bone implantation, that advocated the bone repair in the sequence treatment process in cases of the hard palate bone damage.</p>
