Objective To evaluate short-term effects of a single photodynamic therapy (PDT) treatment with visudyne (CIBA Vision Corp.) for choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in age-ralated macular degeneration (AMD). Methods Thirty cases (35 eyes) diagnosed as AMD patients with classic CNV were treated with PDT. The data of visual acuity testing, fluorescein angiography (FFA), indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) and optic coherence tomography （OCT) were used to evaluate the effects of a single treatment of PDT before and 1 week, 1 ,3 month after treatment. Results The visual acuity of 34 eyes were stable or improved in 3 months follow-up；and the visual acuity of 1 eye was decreased. Decrease or dispearance of fluorescein leakage from CNV was noted in 19 eyes. No serious complication occurred. Conclusion Single treatment of PDT for CNV in AMD can achieve short-term decrease or cessation of fluorescein leakage from CNV without loss of visual acuity.

Objective lt;brgt;To study the clinical results and safty of photodynamic therapy (PDT) after single and multi-treatments of patients with subfoveal choroidal neovascularization (CNV) caused by wet agerelated macular degeneration (AMD). lt;brgt; lt;brgt;Methods lt;brgt;From July, 2000 to July, 2001, 20 wet AMD patients (31 eyes) 4788 years old (mean 68.2 years old) with best-corrected visual acuity from FC/10 cm to 0.6 diagnosed through optic coherence tomography (OCT), fluorescein angiography (FFA) and indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) were treated with PDT. All cases were assigned to benzoporphyrin derivative mono acid (BPD) (6 mg per square meter of body surface area), administered via intravenous infusion of 30 ml over 10 minutes. Fifteen minutes after the start of the infusion, a laser light at 689 nm (Zeiss company, German) delivered 50 J/cm2 at an intensity of 600 mW/cm2 over 83 seconds on CNV. Visual acuity, photochrome of ocular fundus, OCT, FFA, ICGA were used to evaluate the effects of photodynamic therapy with BPD. Follow-up of these patients was planned 1-2 week and every 3 month after PDT. Once the lesion area progressed, PDT was applied again. Tweenty cases (31 eyes) were followed up from 3 to 18 months (average 12 month).In 1 affected eye, PDT was applied fow 4 times, 4 eye for 2 times, and the other 26 eyes for 1 time. lt;brgt;Results lt;brgt;The visual acuity in 13 (41.9%) eyes was improved (increase≥2 lines) after PDT. Stabilized (±1 line) in 17 (54.8%) eyes and decreased 2 lines（attributed to the recur of CNV ）in 1 (3.2%) eye. After PDT, the fundus haemorrhage and fluid leakage reduced. FFA and ICGA showed. cessation and obvious reduction of fluorescein leakage from CNV in all patients 2 weeks after photodynamic therapy, and retreatment decreased the leakage step by step. Fluorescein leakage from at least a portion of the CNV reappeared by 1-3 month after treatment in some cases. OCT also showed the reduction of the size of CNV, moreover, the edema of surrounding retina and choriodal and serous neural epithelial detachment recovered obviously. No side affect during and after PDT was noticed. lt;brgt;Conclusions lt;brgt;PDT with BPD can achieve short-term effect on part or total cessation of fluorescein leakage from CNV without loss of vision or growth of classic CNV in patients with age-related macular degeneration, retreatment of PDT was also effective. lt;brgt; lt;brgt;(Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2002, 18: 175-179)
Purpose To evaluate shortterm visual acuity effects of a single photodynamic therapy(PDT) treatment with Visudyne (CIBA Vision Corp, Duluth, Ga) for choroidal neovascularization (CNV) in age-related macular degeneration (AMD). Methods Definitely diagnostic AMD patients with classic CNV were treated with PDT (5 cases, 7 eyes). The data of visual acuity testing, ophthalmic examination, color photographs, optic coherence tomography, fluorescein angiograms and indocyanine green angiogram before photodynamic therapy and 1 week ,1 month after it were used to evaluate the effects of a single treatment of PDT with Visudyne. Results The visual acuity of all the treated eyes at the follow-up examination at 1 month after PDT were not reduced. Distinct reduction of fluorescein leakage from CNV was noted in all patients by 1 week after PDT. Fluorescein leakage from a portion of the CNV reappeared by 1 month after treatment in 2 eyes. Conclusion PDT with Visudyne achieved short-term cessation of fluorescein leakage from CNV without loss of vision or growth of classic CNV in some patwo ients with AMD.

ObjectiveTo observe the accuracy of location and operation of traditional blind acupotomy lysis in the treatment of scapulohumeral periarthritis by using the high-frequency ultrasound.MethodsForty-two patients with scapulohumeral periarthritis diagnosed in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University and Urumqi Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine from February to April 2018 were selected. Four common sites of needle knife in the treatment of scapulohumeral periarthritis were operated blindly, and the process of the needle insertion points location and needle perform were both observed by high-frequency ultrasound.ResultsUsing high-frequency ultrasound to observe and confirm the bare-handed positioning point and needle-knife operating point, we found that the accuracy rate of bare-handed positioning needle-point was 100.0% (42/42). In the process of needling, the accuracies of needle insertion at the point of small tubercle of humerus and the point of bursa of deltoid muscle were high, which was 95.2% (40/42) and 100.0% (42/42), respectively. However, because of the deviation of the needle depth and direction, the accuracies of needle insertion at the coracoid point and the sulcus point between the humeral tubercles were low, which was 45.2% (19/42) and 4.8% (2/42), respectively.ConclusionsTraditional acupotomy lysis is a commonly used method of needle knife treatment. Using high-frequency ultrasound, it is found that even by experienced needle knife doctors, there may still be positioning deviation when using blind method to insert needles. Because the visualization of clinical needle knife is difficult to be carried out universally due to the limitations of time and technology, it is suggested that high-frequency ultrasound could be used as a visualization teaching tool in the training of needle knife operation to assist the training of blind needle knife operation technology, which may improve the accuracy of blind needle knife operation.
Objective To explore the early effect following resection of ilealcecum and right hemicolon. MethodsTwenty piglets were randomly divided into 2 groups, 10 in control group and experimental group respectively. The ilealcecum and right hemicolon for 50 cm each were resected in the experimental group. The two groups were fed the same food before and after the operation. Some indexes of two groups were monitored. Results①In the two groups, the body length change wasn’t significant (Pgt;0.05); but the body weight had descended markly in experimental group, compared with control group, since 3 weeks after operation (Plt;0.05). ②In experimental group, the ileal bacteria were increased from 104-107/ml before operation to 109-1011/ml at 6 weeks after operation (Plt;0.05). ③The enterohepatic circulation of biliac acid was affected during the early phase after resection. ④In experimental group, the stool became diluted within 6 weeks after operation. ⑤In the two groups, the Vitamin B12 was waved slightly within 6 weeks after operation (Pgt;0.05). The megaloblastic anemia was not appeared. ⑥The function of liver and the absorption of Na+, Cl-,K+ did not change significantly (Pgt;0.05). Conclusion The ileocecum and right hemicolon are very important for digestion and absorption, it should be retained or the ileocecal valve should be reconstructed if possible.
Objective To investigate the clinical features, diagnosis, and surgical methods of left-sided appendicitis (LSA). Methods We retrieved LSA-related literatures through Pubmed, Google Scholar English databases, Wanfang, CNKI, VIP, and SinoMed databases (published from January 1981 to June 2017), as well as 2 cases of LSA who treated in Beibei Traditional Chinese Medical Hospital, to analyze the clinical characteristics of LSA and its diagnosis and treatment methods. Results There were 92 articles in a total of 212 LSA patients were retrieved, and 2 cases treated in Beibei Traditional Chinese Medical Hospital, a total of 214 LSA patients were included in the analysis. Pain fixed position of LSA: 139 cases (65.0%) located in left-lower quadrant, 30 cases (14.0%) located in right-lower quadrant, 8 cases (3.7%) located in peri-umbilical, 15 cases (7.0%) located in mid-lower abdomen, 15 cases (7.0%) located in left-upper quadrant, 3 cases (1.4%) located in right-upper abdomen, 2 cases (0.9%) located in mid-upper abdomen, 2 cases (0.9%) located in pelvic cavity, respectively. LSA had occurred in association with several types of abnormal anomalies: 131 cases (61.2%) suffered from situs inversus totalis (SIT), 53 cases (24.8%) suffered from midgut malrotation (MM), 21 cases (9.8%) suffered from cecal malrotation, 4 cases (1.9%) suffered from long appendix, 2 cases (0.9%) suffered from free ascending colon, and 3 cases (1.4%) were unclear. The diagnosis of 114 LSA cases (53.3%) before operation was correct, in which the correct diagnosis rates of SIT-LSA and MM-LSA were 74.8% (98/131) and 22.6% (12/53), respectively. Three patients (1.4%) underwent conservative treatment, and 211 patients (98.6%) underwent surgical treatment, including 25 cases (11.7%) of laparoscopic surgery, 145 cases (67.8%) of open abdominal surgery, and unknown of 41 cases (19.1%). Laparotomy incision: abdominal incision in 74 cases (51.0%), ventral midline incision in 16 cases (11.0%), the left side of the anti McBurney incision in 43 cases (29.7%), right McBurney incision in 12 cases (8.3%). Conclusions LSA mainly occurs in association with 2 types of congenital anomalies: SIT and MM. There is some difficult to make diagnosis for abnormal anatomy and inaccurate pain location of LSA, so it is easy to cause the delay in diagnosis or misdiagnosis. For LSA, the choices of laparoscopy or laparotomy operation methods are applicable.
