ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the application value of right minimal invasive three-port technique of laparoscopic sleeve gastrectomy (RMIT-LSG) for the treatment of obesity.Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinical data of 66 obesity patients who underwent RMIT-LSG in the Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital of Zhejiang University School of Medicine from January to October 2021 were collected. There were 15 males and 51 females, aged 28.5(range, 16.0?54.0)years. The body mass index (BMI) of the 66 patients was (36.9±4.3)kg/m 2. There were 20 of the 66 patients combined with type 2 diabetes. Observation indicators: (1) surgical situations; (2) postoperative situations; (3) follow-up. Follow-up was conducted using outpatient examination or the WeChat to detect postoperative recovery of patients including body mass changing, BMI and complications 6 months after operation. The follow-up was up to December 2021. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD. Measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M(range). Count data were described as absolute numbers. Results:(1) Surgical situations. All the 66 patients underwent RMIT-LSG successfully, without conversion to laparotomy or changing surgical method. The operation time and the volume of intraoperative blood loss of the 66 patients were (132±22)minutes and (14±8)mL, respectively. (2) Postoperative situations. The time to postoperative initial out-of-bed activities, time to postoperative first flatus, time to postoperative initial water intake, time to postoperative initial liquid food intake and duration of postoperative hospital stay of the 66 patients were (15±6)hours, (1.80±0.60)days, (1.00±0.20)days, (2.00±0.20)days and (3.40±0.60)days, respectively. Of the 66 patients, one case underwent post-operative abdominal hemorrhage at postoperative day 1 and received a second surgery for hemostasis. The patient with postoperative abdominal hemorrhage and other 65 patients recovered well without gastroparesis, gastric fistula, abdominal infection and other complication. (3) Follow-up. All the 66 patients were followed up for 6(range, 1?11)months. All the 66 patients completed the postoperative scar photography at postoperative 1 month, and results of scar photography showed concealed scar with good cosmetic effects. Twenty-seven of the 66 patients were followed up for 6 months after operation, with the weight loss, percentage of weight loss and decrease of BMI were (42±7)kg, 34.8%±2.9%, (14.2±1.9)kg/m 2, respectively. None of the 66 patient had innutrition during the follow-up. Conclusion:The RMIT-LSG is safe and feasible for the treatment of obesity, with a good cosmetic effect of the wound.

ABSTRACT
Objective: To evaluate the application of mechanically reinforced 45S5 Bioglass®-derived glass ceramic porous scaffolds for repair of bone defect in rabbits. Methods: The BG-ZnB powders were added into the 45S5 Bioglass® powder/paraffin microsphere mixtures and were sintered at 900℃ to obtain porous scaffolds with highly bioactive BG-ZnB of 0%, 2% or 4% of mass fraction (denoted as 45S5/ZnB0, 45S5/ZnB2, 45S5/ZnB4). Phase composition, porosity and compression properties of three kinds of as-sintered scaffolds were characterized by X-ray analysis, mercury porosimetry, and mechanical test. Thirty-six male New Zealand rabbits with critical-sized femoral bone defects were randomly divided into three groups (45S5/ZnB0 group, 45S5/ZnB2 group and 45S5/ZnB4 group, 12 for each), and were implanted with three kinds of porous scaffolds respectively. X-ray, micro-CT three-dimensional reconstruction and tissue slice staining were used to detected the efficiency of bone regeneration at 6 and 16 weeks after operation. The growth of newly formed bone was observed using HE, Masson staining and EnVision method. Results: Phase compositions of 45S5/ZnB2 and 45S5/ZnB4 were the same with 45S5/ZnB0, but the average pore size and porosity of the scaffolds were decreased with the increase of BG-ZnB content. 45S5/ZnB2 and 45S5/ZnB4 scaffolds exhibited higher compressive strength, osteogenesis and trabecular density than those of the 45S5/ZnB0 scaffold (all PConclusion: Low-melt BG-ZnB-assisted sintering is a promising approach to improve the mechanical strength of 45S5 Bioglass®.

Objective To evaluate MRI characteristics of soft tissue hemangioma.Methods 30 cases of soft tissue hemangiomaconfirmed by surgery,angiography and clinical diagnosis included in this study.All cases underwent plain MRI scans,24 cases of them were further-examined by contrast-enhanced MR scans.Results 24 cases were cavernous hemangioma,4 cases were capillary hemangioma and 2 were tufted hemangioma.The tumors showed moderate signal on T_1WI in 24 cases,and significantly higher signal on T_2WI in all cases(even stronger than that of fats).The vascular component within the tumor displayed remarkable enhancement and appeared as serpentinevessels,while the non-vascular tissues showed no enhancement after intravenous administration of contrast agent.Conclusion MRIexamination is of great importance in determining the position,the nature and the extent of hemangioma as well as the effectiveness ofoperation.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the value of CT diagnosis of cardiac carcinoma.Methods 112 patients with cardiac carcinoma pathologically proven(47 cases by gastroscopy,65 cases by operation)were examined by CT scan,CT findings were analysed.Results The basic CT signs of cardiac carcinoma demonstrated thickened gastric well and soft tissue mass.Irregular intracavitary niches were noticed when combined with ulcer.Gastric wall rigidity and deformation were also the CT features of cardiac carcinoma.Direct infiltration and distal metastasis of cardiac carcinoma were observed by CT.Conclusion CT has important reference value in preoperative evaluation of resectability in cardiac carcinom
