In order to preserve more normal tissue in situ in case of severe traumatic rupture of spleen, simultaneous ligation of splenic artery and vein was performed successfully on animals and then was applied for clinic use. The preserved splenic tissue all survivied and functioned well. Patients with severe traumatic rupture of spleen grade Ⅳ-Ⅴ were all cured by ligation of both the splenic artery and vein at the same time.
Objective To study the relationship of hepatitis B virus （HBV） to spontaneous rupture of hepatocellular carcinoma （HCC-SR） and its mechanism. Method The related literatures about theory of HCC-SR were consulted and reviewed. Results The injury of small arteries was usually followed in patients with HCC-SR， which was related to vascular autoimmune injury caused by the HBV infection. The small arteries in which immune complex deposited were readily injured， as a result HCC-SR happened while vascular load increased. Conclusion The HBV infection resulted in vascular autoimmune injury maybe a important factor in the pathogenesis of HCC-SR.
Objective?To investigate clinical characteristics， diagnosis， and treatment for patients with spontaneous esophageal rupture， and improve clinical diagnostic and treatment level.?Methods?We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 34 patients with spontaneous esophageal rupture who were treated in Subei People’s Hospital from January 1996 to June 2010. There were 28 male patients and 6 female patients with their age ranging from 32 to 80 years old (mean 57.6 years old). Main clinical manifestations included severe chest and abdominal pain after vomiting， fever， dyspnea and shock. The duration between disease onset and establishing diagnosis ranged from 4 hours to 7 days. Thirteen patients received conservative treatment including chest drainage， retrograde gastrointestinal decompression and enteral nutrition through jejunostomy. Twenty one patients received surgical treatment including layered anastomosis of the ruptured esophagus， retrograde gastrointestinal decompression and enteral nutrition through jejunostomy.?Results?All the patients were cured without in-hospital death. The mean hospital stay of the 13 patients who received conservative treatment was 46 days， while that of the 21 patients who received surgical treatment was 17 days. All the ruptured esophagus were one-stage healed. All the 34 patients were followed up from l to 8 years， including 11 patients in the conservative treatment group and 19 patients in the surgical treatment group， but 4 patients was lost during follow-up. All the patients had a normal diet without symptoms of esophageal stricture， reflux esophagitis or chronic thoracic empyema.?Conclusion Spontaneous esophageal rupture is a thoracic emergency with a high misdiagnosis rate and mortality．Early diagnosis， early surgical repair of ruptured esophagus and satisfactory chest drainage play a vital role in the treatment for patients with spontaneous rupture of esophagus.
Objective
To investigate the feasibility of elective laparoscopic hepatectomy in the treatment of ruptured hepatocellular carcinoma.
Methods
We tried to perform an elective laparoscopic hepatectomy for a middle-aged man who had a ruptured hepatocellular carcinoma without active hemorrhage. The data of this patient was summarized.
Results
The patient received the elective laparoscopic hepatectomy, and the liver lesions were completely removed. The operation was successful. Operative time was 300 min and intraoperative bleeding was 500 mL. Postoperative recovery of this patient was good and no complication occurred. The abdominal drainage tube was removed on 4 days after operation, and he discharged on 8 days after operation. The pathology confirmed that the hepatocellular carcinoma was moderately differentiated and ruptured.
Conclusion
Elective laparoscopic hepatectomy is safe and feasible in the treatment of ruptured hepatocellular carcinoma for specific patient, but this operation needs to be performed by experienced surgeons with laparoscopic skills.
