RESUMO
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the curative effect of penile elongation with four differentoperative approaches. METHODS: Through four different operative approaches (the coronary sulcus ringincision, Y or Z shaped incision or Z shaped incision combined with coronary sulcus ring incision), thepenile skin and fascia were degloved until the penile root. Then the superficial and deep dorsal penilesuspensory ligament were cut off. After electric coagulation of the residue ends, the two-side tissue at thefront of the pubic symphysis was sutured. Then the penile skin and fascia were repositioned and the incisionat the inner and outer plate was closed. RESULTS: The increased penile static length was (2.9 ± 0.2) cmwith abdominal wall Y incision (12 cases); (3.1 ± 0.3) cm with transabdominal modified Z incision (260 cases); (3.9 ± 0.7) cm with coronary sulcus ring incision (363 cases); (3.4 ± 0.8) cm with combined incision (39 cases). The lengthening effect was significantly different between the coronary ring incision and abdominal wall Y/Z incision (P < 0.05). The postoperative follow-up period was 6 months to 5.5 years without serious complications. Only 3 cases of subcutaneous hematoma occurred with treatment of debridement and drainage. 4 cases with ischemic necrosis at distal penile skin, were treated with debridement, dressing and physiotherapy, leaving no scar. CONCLUSIONS: Penile lengthening surgery are safe and effective through different approaches. The coronal ring incision has the best therapeutic effect.

Study of mechanism of medicine actions, by quantitative analysis of cultured cardiac myocyte, is one of the cutting edge researches in myocyte dynamics and molecular biology. The characteristics of cardiac myocyte auto-beating without external stimulation make the research sense. Research of the morphology and cardiac myocyte motion using image analysis can reveal the fundamental mechanism of medical actions, increase the accuracy of medicine filtering, and design the optimal formula of medicine for best medical treatments. A system of hardware and software has been built with complete sets of functions including living cardiac myocyte image acquisition, image processing, motion image analysis, and image recognition. In this paper, theories and approaches are introduced for analysis of living cardiac myocyte motion images and implementing quantitative analysis of cardiac myocyte features. A motion estimation algorithm is used for motion vector detection of particular points and amplitude and frequency detection of a cardiac myocyte. Beatings of cardiac myocytes are sometimes very small. In such case, it is difficult to detect the motion vectors from the particular points in a time sequence of images. For this reason, an image correlation theory is employed to detect the beating frequencies. Active contour algorithm in terms of energy function is proposed to approximate the boundary and detect the changes of edge of myocyte.
