Objective To discuss the methods and results of the surgical treatment of apical muscular ventricular septal defects （VSD） , in order to improve the surgical outcome of this disease. Methods The clinical data of 29 patients with apical muscular VSD of Fuwai hospital through Jan. 1999 to July 2004 were analyzed retrospectively. The apical VSDwere repaired via 4 different approaches： right atrium, apical right ventriculotomy, apical left ventriculotomy and the incision of the outflow tract of right ventricle combined with apical left ventriculotomy. The operative outcomes between different approaches were analyzed and compared. Results There were 2 perioperative deaths （6. 9%）. One patient repaired via apical left ventriculotomy died of low cardiac output syndrome, the other died intraoperatively from endocardial fibroelastosis, which was confirmed by myocardial biopsy. There were residual VSD in 4 （13. 8%） patients, who were repaired via the right atrium, which did not necessitate reoperation. Other patients were discharged uneventfully. Follow up was completed {n 11 patients and extended 2 to 34 months, none of the 6 survivors had apical ventricular aneurysms. Conclusions The operative outcome of patients with apical VSD is satisfactory although the incidence of residual VSD is higher. The intraoperative transesophageal echocardiography （TEE） should be performed routinely. Surgical approach should be chosen on the actual site of the VSD at operation. Try to repair the VSD via the right atrium as possible, via the apical right ventrieulotomy if needed and try to avoid left ventriculotomy.
OBJECTIVE This paper is aimed to observe the long-term result of reconstruction of wrist joint by replacing distal end of radius with vascularized fibular head in patient of giant tumor. METHODS From July 1978 to November 1993, 12 cases of giant tumor of distal end of radius were treated by this procedure and followed up for 6 months to 15 years, and the movement range of wrist, grip strength, and pain were evaluated. RESULTS The painful wrist released in 11 cases, only one case still existed mild pain and felt discomfortable. The average range of movement of wrist joint was 34.05 degree in volar flexion, 52.80 degree in dorsal extension, 26.25 degree in ulnar deviation, and 19.75 degree in radial deviation, and average grip strength was 44.6 kg. Compared with the contralateral side, there were accounted for 46.2%, 72.7%, 76.1%, 80.6%, and 76.7% respectively. CONCLUSION Replacement of distal end of radius with fibular head to reconstruct wrist joint can restore function of carpal joint, which is proved to be a safe and effective method.
Objective To improve the operative effects of patients who had tetralogy of Fallot with aortopulmonary collateral arteries (TOF-APCAs) and evaluate the clinical effects of staging and onestop hybrid approach for TOFAPCAs. Methods From January 2003 to December 2007, thirty patients with TOF-APCAs had undergone combined therapy of APCAs embolization and complete surgical repair. Fifteen patients had APCAs embolization therapy before or after TOF radical operation(staging hybrid group ); Fifteen had onestop hybrid treatment(onestop hybrid group). Results Angiography revealed that there were 19 APCAs in staging hybrid group, and of which 15(78％) were embolized successfully. Five cases had complications and one died from respiratory circulating failure. The rest all recovered and discharged. And 22 APCAs were found in one-stop hybrid group, eighteen (82％) of them were embolized successfully. Only one case had pulmonary effusion. The time of hospitalization(median 37 d vs. 22 d, P=0.011),ICU staying（median 7.0 d vs. 4.7 d,P=0.029）and endotracheal intubation（median 131 h vs. 19 h,P=0.009） was obviously longer, and the hospitalization expenses（median 64 101 [CM(159mm]yuan vs. 48 021 yuan, P=0.033）were obviously higher in staging hybrid group than that in one-stop hybrid group.And there was no statistical significance in cardiopulmonary bypass time（P=0.126） and aortic clamping time（P=0.174） between two groups. Conclusion In comparison with traditional staging hybrid approach, one-stop hybrid approach can simplify the operative process for patients who have TOFAPCAs, improve the operative successful rate and cut down expenses.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate a treatment method for overtime avulsion of scalp. METHODS: Form October 1992 to July 2001, we treated 7 cases of avulsed scalp, which had been wounded more than 12 hours and accompanied with shock and head wound, with split thickness scalp skin grafting. RESULTS: Except for partial necrosis of scalp in center of bare area of skull, more than 90% of grafting split thickness scalp skin survived in 4 cases and more than 80% in 3 cases, and presented satisfactory appearance during following up. The bare area had no periosteum above 4 cm in diameter needed to graft split thickness skin after skull was covered granulation tissue. CONCLUSION: The limits of time of scalp skin grafting will be prolonged as long as the processes are settled properly to maintain the skin of body.
An experimental study was designed on the treatment of 8 superficial burn wounds and 5 wounds after removing the split-thickness skin grafts with 200GS permanent magnetic flat dressings, and some of the wounds were chosen at random which did not received any treatment and would be served as control. It was noted that the volume of exudate in the treatment group was 11.9 50.7％ less than that of the control group, and the total protein, the albumin and globulin contents in the treatment cases were far less in exudate than those of the control cases. It was concluded that the magnetic therapy not only decresed the exudate, but also diminished the amount of total protein, albumin and globulin in the exudating fluid and it was of benefit to wound recovery.
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effect of local application of basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) and sucralfate on the skin tissue structure after expansion. METHODS: Continuous tissue expansion (CTE) experimental animal model was made with constant pressure pump in nine white pigs. The bFGF and sucralfate were perfused between tissue and tissue expander. Both bFGF and sucralfate were injected in group I, both bFGF and normal saline in group II, only sucralfate in group III, and normal saline in group IV as control group. The samples were took from each pig for histomorphological assessment on the 3rd day and 6th week after expansion. RESULTS: Compared with control group, epidermal, granular spinous and basal cell thickness increased significantly (P lt; 0.05) in group I; in dermal layer, dermal thickened slightly and the collagen fibers became thicker and orderly; the elastic fiber regenerated significantly; the density of fibroblasts and capillaries significantly increased (P lt; 0.05) in group I. The collagen fibers were broken on the 3rd day and 6th week after expansion in control group. However, the thickness of the fibrous capsule layer was similar in each group. CONCLUSION: Local application of exogenous bFGF and sucralfate combined with CTE can greatly promote the skin growth. It can accelerate the tissue expansion.
Objective To evaluate the clinical value of ureteroscope in cholelithiasis treated by laparoscopic surgery. Methods The clinical data of 36 patients admitted because of hepatolithus with ureteroscope combination in laparoscopic surgery from February 2007 to September 2009 in Guidong People’s Hospital of Guangxi were analyzed retrospectively. Results In 33 cases, stones were removed once by ureteroscope in laparoscopic surgery with residual stones (in 3 cases residual stone were removed secondarily through T tube) and the other 3 cases were transferred to laparotomy forcedly due to bleeding of biliary duct and vessels of porta hepatis and tearing of bile duct. During operation, blood loss was 30-280 (94.51±54.70) ml; operation time was 110-260 (147.22±48.45) min; recovery time of bowel movement was 1-3 (2.03±0.76) d; postoperative hospitalization time was 6-13 (7.12±1.65) d (some discharged with T tube); the time of patients of T tubes pulled out was 28-45 (38.92±6.52) d. Bile leakage happened in 1 case and infection of biliary tract in 1 case, no complications such as biliary stricture or bile duct bleeding were found after operation. Conclusions Treatment of intrahepatic bile duct or a single extra-hepatic sand-like stones with ureteroscopy usage in laparoscopic surgery is feasible and less invasive. It is a minimally invasive treatment for intra- or extra-hepatic stones due to rapidly postoperative rehabilitation.
The authom analysed the predisposing factors for macular pucker(MP) after retinal dotachment surgery.Thirteen clinlcal risk factors correlated with the development of MP were identified, As the incidence related to various factors was compared with reported in the literature,the most significant 3 risk factors of MP were: the obvious hemorrhage accumulated in maeular area, the macular hole treated with diathernly,and the patient lay on one's back for approximately 2 weeks during postoperative retard absorption of subretinal fluid in the eyes with preoperative PVR,This suggested that the direct or indirect damage of maeular area was the major cause of development of MP.

Objective To investigate on the epidemiologic characteristics of nosocomial infection in surgery departments of general hospitals by analyzing the data collected from documents which were published in recent years, so as to provide references for the construction of precautionary system model. Methods Applying comprehensive search strategies, we searched various electronic databases as CBM (1978 to 2008), CNKI (1912 to 2008), VIP (2001 to 2009) and WanFang Data (2001 to 2009). MeSH terms and/or text words included: nosocomial infections, cross infection, hospital infection, prevent and control. Data from top and second grade hospital were included in this analysis. Results Sixty four articles and a total of 1 990 929 inpatients were included. Results showed: average nosocomial infection rate was 4.46%; the total rates of medicine department and surgery department were 23.28% and 17.33% respectively and no significant difference was found between the two departments; the infection rates of G– and G+ germ were 47.71% and 21.31% respectively; the rates of average antibiotics use was 60.59% and the rate of missing report was 12.42%. Noscomial infection was related to season change and the wave peak was from February to May. Conclusion Most of the included studies were retrospective studies and cross-sectional studies. The type of data was inconsistency and incomplete, causing weak strength of evidence. High missing rate of reports makes the precautionary model hard to build in future.
