RESUMEN
Objective To investigate the safety and efficacy of ExoSeal vascular occluder in bridging therapy for patients with acute ischemic stroke(AIS).Methods The clinical data of 142 AIS patients,who received mechanical thrombectomy in the bridge-connected vascular lumen after full dose recombinant tissue plasminogen activator(rt-PA)thrombolysis at the Weifang Municipal People's Hospital of China between June 2018 and December 2020,were retrospectively analyzed.An 8-F femoral arterial sheath was used for the performance of endovascular mechanical thrombectomy in all patients.After the interventional procedure finished,the hemostasis of femoral artery puncture point was achieved by using manual compression(MC)method in 68 patients(MC group)and by using a 7-F ExoSeal vascular occluder method in 74 patients(ExoSeal group).The success rate of puncture point hemostasis and the incidence of puncture point-related complications were compared between the two methods.Results The success rate of surgery in the ExoSeal group was 94.6%,which was obviously higher than 83.8%in the MC group(P=0.037).During the period from the time of finishing surgery and the time of discharge,11 patients(16.2%)in the MC group and 4 patients(5.4%)in the ExoSeal group developed puncture point-related complications(P=0.030),and 6 patients(8.8%)in the MC group and 2 patients(2.7%)in the ExoSeal group developed deep vein thrombosis(P=0.109).No arteriovenous fistula,pseudoaneurysm,acute ischemia of the ipsilateral lower limb,puncture point-associated major bleeding,or other complications that required vascular surgery or interventional therapy occurred in all patients.Conclusion ExoSeal vascular closure device can be safely used in AIS patients who are receiving mechanical thrombectomy in the bridge-connected vascular lumen after thrombolysis.It carries high success rate for femoral artery puncture point hemostasis,besides,it can reduce the incidence of puncture point hematoma.
RESUMEN
bjective To observe the changes of upper extremity sensory function in patients with radicular cervical spondylosis and evaluate the treatment effect, by using the method of suspension exercise therapy (SET) and soft tissue manipulation. Methods A total of 72 patients with cervical spondylosis were divided into observation group (treated by SET combined with manipulation)and control group (treated by purely cervical traction) by simple random method. Both groups received 4-week continuous treatment for 6 times per week. The somatosensory evoked potential(SEP), current perception threshold (CPT) before and after the treatment in two groups were separatedly tested, and changes in visual analogue scale (VAS) pain scores of the affected limbs were examined, so as to determine the effective rate of treatment. Results After treatment, the latency of SEP was shortened mainly in brachial plexus potential N9 and cervical spinal potential N13 in two groups (P<0.05). The CPT levels and the VAS pain scores of the affected limbs were reduced in two groups (P<0.01), and the treatment effect in observation group was better that in control group (P<0.01).Conclusion SET combined with soft tissue manipulation can effectively promote the repair of nerve sense function of cervical spondylotic radiculopathy.

Objective:To evaluate Castor single-branch covered-stent in the treatment of Stanford B aortic dissection(TBAD)with insufficient anchorage zone.Methods:Clinical data of 25 TBAD patients (proximal healthy landing zone ≤15 mm) treated with Castor branched stent-graft at Weifang People's Hospital from Apr 2019 to Sep 2021 were analyzed retrospectively.The stent model was selected according to preoperative CTA examination and intraoperative angiography,the operation result and follow up data were reviewed.Results:The operation success rate was 100%,the mean operative time was (137.8±35.8)min, and the mean blood loss was (52.8±24.5)ml. There were 2 cases of internal leakage (IA) and it was disappeared after balloon dilation, Branched stent stenosis occurred in 2 cases and relieved by balloon dilatation. The mean follow-up time was 14.6 months, and the patency rate of branch stent was 100% during the follow-up period. The true lumen diameter of thoracic aorta was significantly expanded and the false lumen diameter was significantly reduced 3 months after surgery compared with that before surgery ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Castor stenting in the treatment of TBAD with insufficient proximal anchoring area is simple and feasible, with satisfactory short term clinical effect.
RESUMEN
Objective To analyze and investigate the diagnosis method and treatment measures of insulinoma.Methods The clinical data in 16 cases of insulinoma in the hepatobiliary surgery of our institute from Dec.2008 to Dec.2015 were retrospectively analyzed.Results All cases had typical Whipple′s triad,the biochemical examination suggested that all cases had plasma glucose decrease and plasma insulin increase during the onset period.The imaging examinations included preoperative ultrasonography,enhanced CT,MRI,EUS and intraoperative ultrasound (IOUS).Their diagnosis positive rates were 56.3% (9/16),77.8% (7/9),80.0% (8/10),100.0%(2/2) and 100.0%(5/5) respectively.Sixteen cases all received surgical treatment,including local tumor excision in 6 cases,simple distal pancreatectomy in 3 cases,distal pancreatectomy plus splenectomy in 5 cases and pancreaticoduodenectomy(PD) in 2 cases.Plasma glucose level in all cases was significantly increased after tumor removal.Postoperative follow-up lasted for 1-5 years without recurrence and metastasis.Conclusion The first choice of insulinoma localization diagnosis is CT and MRI,intraoperative palpation combined with IOUS is the main method of intraoperative localization,and the surgical resection is the only effective method for treating this disease.

ObjectiveTo investigate the high-risk factors for acute liver failure after radical surgery combined with hemihepatectomy for hilar cholangiocarcinoma (HC). MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of 126 patients who were admitted to Chongqing Cancer Institute and underwent radical surgery combined with hemihepatectomy for HC from January 2000 to December 2014, including sex, age, preoperative serum levels of total bilirubin (TBil) and albumin (Alb), preservation of hepatic artery blood supply or not, application of nonselective hepatic vascular occlusion or not, intraoperative blood loss volume, and time of operation. The chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between groups, and multivariate logistic regression analysis was performed to determine independent risk factors for acute liver failure after surgery. ResultsA total of 17 patients (13.49%) experienced acute liver failure, and 11 patients(873%) died. A preoperative serum TBil level of >200 μmol/L(OR=178,95%CI:105-304,P=0029), an intraoperative blood loss volume of >800 ml(OR=264,95%CI:133-395,P=0003), no preservation of hepatic artery blood supply(OR=357,95%CI:221-509,P=0002), and application of nonselective hepatic vascular occlusion(OR=136,95%CI:079-178,P=0037) were independent risk factors for acute liver failure after surgery. ConclusionPreoperative biliary drainage, a reduced intraoperative blood loss volume, preservation of hepatic artery blood supply, and avoiding nonselective hepatic vascular occlusion have great significance in reducing acute liver failure after radical surgery combined with hemihepatectomy for HC.
