RESUMO
Objective To observe the oral part of the facial artery and facial vein and to provide anatomical data for clinical applica-tion. Methods The origin, branches, course, diameter, position of oral part of facial artery and facial vein were observed on 32 fixed cada-ves (64 sides). Results The position relation between the facial artery and facial vein is non-constant. Measure the distance from inferior border of mandible to corner of the mouth, angulus mandibulae, mental protuberance midpoint. It is (5. 49 ± 0. 63) cm, (2. 50 ± 0. 89) cm and (6. 20 ± 1. 68) cm in the left side respectively, and (5. 69 ± 0. 72) cm, (2. 56 ± 1. 08) cm and (6. 85 ± 1. 86) cm in the right side re-spectively. The diameter of facial artery in inferior border of mandible is (0. 33 ± 0. 08) cm in the left side and (0. 38 ± 0. 07) cm in the right side;while the diameter of facial vein is (0. 40 ± 0. 12) cm in the left side and (0. 42 ± 0. 18) cm in the right side. The facial artery and facial vein are not concomitant and they are not asymmetry also. The position of superior labial artery arteries is constant, but the position of inferior labial artery arteries have more variations. Conclusion The branches, course, diameter and position of oral part of facial artery and facial vein have a number of variations. The superior labial artery arteries could be positioned more easily than inferior labial artery arter-ies. Being familiar with their distribution is of great importance for clinical application.
RESUMO
Objective To investigate the changes of hematoma and perihematomal edema in spontaneous hypertensive rats (SHRs),as well as the correlation between blood pressures and perihematomal edemaMethods A total of 24 6-month-old male SHRs were included.They were randomly divided into intracerebral hemorrhage 1-,3-,5-,and 7-day groups (n =6 in each group).Blood pressure was determined by tail-cuff sphygmomanometry.Collagenase Ⅳ was injected into caudate nucleus in order to induce a model of intracerebral hemorrhage.Magnetic resonance T2 weighted imaging was used to observe hematoma and perihematomal edema.Results On day 1 after modeling,the blood pressure was decreased significantly compared to that before modeling,and it was elevated gradually on day 3.Parallel profile test showed that the overall profile was parallel between the change rate of blood pressure and the change rate of perihematomal edema volume (F =2.820,P =0.063).The coincident profile test showed that both the overall profiles did not coincide (F =10.961,P =0.000).The change rate of systolic blood pressure was significantly positively correlated with the change rate of perihematomal edema volume (r =0.527,P =0.024) and the change rate of perihematomal edema volume (r =0.755,P =0.000) showed a significant positive correlation.Conclusions Brain edema appeared and expanded rapidly on the day of intracerebral hemorrhage in SHRs.It reached the peak on day 3,and then dissipated gradually.The blood pressure decreased significantly on day 1 after intracerebral hemorrhage,and it began to increase from day 3 till day 7.The changing trends of the blood pressure and perihematomal edema volume were parallel to each other,and the change rate of systolic blood pressure and the change rate of perihematomal edema volume showed a positive correlation.
