Objective To summarize the advancement of hereditary thrombophilia. Methods Relevant literatures about hereditary thrombophilia published recently domestic and abroad were reviewed and analyzed. Results The hereditary risk factors of venous thromboembolism were different among different races. In western population, the main risk factors were activated protein C resistance (APC-R) and mutation of factor V Leiden, methylene tetrahydrofolate reductase polymorphism (C677T) and prothrombin G20210A. While in Chinese population, the disorder of protein C system and hyperhomocysteinemia were the major genetic risk factor. The existence of multiple genetic risk factors increased the incidence of primary and recurrent venous thromboembolism. Conclusion Further study on the relations between the hereditary risk factors and thrombophilia will be very important for prediction and prevention of the venous thromboembolism.
Objective To explore the diagnosis and treatment of ruptured abdominal aortic aneurysm (RAAA). Methods Between January 1996 and December 2009, 14 patients with RAAA were treated. There were 13 males and 1 female with an average age of 65 years (range, 50-82 years). The main cl inical manifestations were abdominal pain and/or back pain. Ten cases had low blood pressure or shock. All cases were accurately diagnosed with CT, Doppler ultrasonography,or operation. The aneurysm diameter was from 4.5 cm to 8.0 cm. Eleven cases were treated by conventional operation, 1 by endovascular aortic repair, 1 by conservative treatment, and 1 case died after admission treatment. Results Perioperative death occurred in 6 cases (mortal ity rate was 50%) in 12 surgical patients. One case died after conservative treatment. The overall mortal ity rate was 57.14% (8/14). The causes of death included circulatory failure in 2 cases and multiple organ failure in 4 cases. The other 6 cases were cured. The postoperative hospital ization days were 12 to 34 days (14 days on average). A total of 4 cases were followed up 11 to 40 months without related compl ication. Conclusion Surgical treatment is still a main method to treat RAAA. Early diagnosis, appropriate resuscitation, and urgent surgical repair are crucial to reduce the mortal ity rate of RAAA.
In order to evaluate the effect and indication of three kinds of deep-venous valve reconstruction surgery, 62 cases with venous reflux disease of the leg had been treated from Jan. 1992 to Jun. 1996. All the patients had varicose vein and tingle in varying degrees, besides swelling in 30 cases, pigmentation in 28 cases, ulcer in 14 cases. The course of disease ranged from 1 to 30 years (averaged 14.6 years). METHOD: 14 cases were treated by ringing of the superficial femoral venous 1st valve, 1 case was treated by repairing of the superficial femoral venous 1st valve, 47 cases were treated by formation of substitute valve outside the popliteal vein. The symptoms of all the patients were alleviated with an average follow-up for 20 months. Fourteen cases with ulcer were healed compeletely and no recurrence. The conclusion were: 1. ringing and repairing of the venous valve were suitable for level I-II venous valvular incompetence. 2. formation of substitute valve outside the popliteal vein was suitable for level III-IV venous valvular incompetence or congenital valvular defect. 3. the width of the ringing material should be increased to 2 cm according to the pathological basis. 4. both femoral veins should be ringed in the treatment of primary valvular incompetence of double deep vein deformity. 5. the formation of substitute valve outside the popliteal vein was also available in the treatment of popliteal vein with many branches.
Objective To explore the value of color Doppler ultrasonography and plasma D-dimer in diagnosis of lower limb deep venous thrombosis (DVT).Methods The clinical data of 70 cases of patients with lower limb DVT diagnosed clinically were retrospectively studied. The lower limb venous of each patient was examined by color Doppler ultrasonography and the plasma level of D-dimer were measured, furthermore the plasma levels of D-dimer in different phase and different type of thrombosis were compared. Results The sensitivity, specificity, positive predictive value, negative predictive value, and accuracy of plasma D-dimer and ultrasonography examination in lower limb DVT were 100%, 66.7%, 97.0%, 100%, and 97.1%, and 98.4%, 83.3%, 98.4%, 83.3%, and 97.1%, respectively. The plasma D-dimer in acute phase 〔(6 451±4 012.22) μg/L〕 and subacute phase 〔(2 063±1831.35) μg/L〕 of lower limb venous thrombosis were significantly higher than that in normal control group 〔(310±66.70) μg/L〕, Plt;0.01 and Plt;0.05, which was not different from that in chronic phase 〔(466±350.52) μg/L〕. Meanwhile, the plasma D-dimer in mixed limb venous thrombosis group 〔(4 464±3 753.16) μg/L〕 and central limb venous thrombosis group 〔(2 149±1 911.53) μg/L〕 were significantly higher than that in control group (Plt;0.05 and Plt;0.01), which was not different from that in peripheral limb venous thrombosis group 〔(560±315.62) μg/L〕. Conclusion Color Doppler ultrasonography is an optimal method and the plasma D-dimer is a predictive index in diagnosis of lower limb DVT.
Objective To evaluate improved effect for deep venous valve function after superficial vein surgery of lower extremity in the intermediate stage. Methods Totally 43 patients (55 limbs) with varicose veins of lower extremity were enrolled to accept surgical management of vein systems in our department from March 2006 to October 2006. All patients were respectively followed up after 6 months and 4 years about the changes of deep venous valve function with color Doppler ultrasonography. Results Thirty-nine patients’ deep venous valve function kept well up to now, and there was no significant difference between the two results. Four patients without proximal saphenous vein ligation recurred, and there was reflux in deep venous. Conclusion Endovenous laser treatment and ablation of varicose veins of lower extremity with deep venous insufficiency could improve deep venous valve function effectively. Proximal great saphenous vein ligation is important for successful operation.

Objective To update available evidence on safety and efficacy of carotid endarterectomy (CEA) versus carotid artery stenting (CAS) in treatment of carotid artery stenosis by a meta-analysis of randomized controlled trials (RCTs). Methods A comprehensive search was performed of PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Web of science, WanFang, and CNKI databases (from January 1990 to July 2015), to collect articles and past systematic reviews, and then abstraced lists of recent scientific conferences which were related with safety and efficacy of CEA versus CAS in treatment of carotid artery stenosis. At last, Meta analysis was performed by RevMan 5.1 software. Results Fifteen RCTs enrolling 9 828 patients were included in the Meta-analysis. Compared with CAS, CEA was associated with a significantly lower incidences of any stroke or death within 30 days after surgery (OR=0.63, 95% CI: 0.51-0.77, P<0.05) and any stroke or death during follow-up, or ipsilateral stroke after 30 days of operation (OR=0.61, 95% CI: 0.48-0.76, P<0.05), but associated with a significantly greater incidences of myocardial infarction (OR=1.81, 95% CI: 1.14-2.87, P=0.01) and cranial neuropathy (OR=18.28, 95% CI: 7.99-41.82, P<0.05) within 30 days after surgery. Conclusion In comparison with CAS, CEA is associated with a lower incidences of stroke or death and a greater incidence of myocardial infarction and cranial neuropathy within 30 days after surgery, and was associated with a significantly lower incidence of any stroke or death during follow-up, or ipsilateral stroke after 30 days of operation. So the results of Meta-analysis support continued use of CEA as the standard method in treatment of carotid artery stenosis.
