Objective To study diagnosis, treatment and rebuilding of scrotum gangrene. Methods From January 1992 to September 2004, 15 patients with scrotum gangrene were treated and their clinical data were analysed.Their ages ranged from 23 to80 years. The results of bacterial culture were positive for wound sample in 14 cases and for blood in 1 case. All the patients underwent surgical treatment including incision,aggressive debridement,drainage,irrigation and antibiotic therapy. Two patients accepted hyperbaric oxygen therapy. All the patients received scrotum rebuilding by transfer of skin flap, skin grafting and suturation and orchectomy was given in 2 elder patients. Results All the patients received healing by first intention after 21 to 34 days.There was no death. Aftera follow-up of 1 to 3 years, the appearance of scotum was satisfactory and no orchiatrophy occurred. Thirteen patients with testicles had normal sexual function. Conclusion After a definite diagnosis,early aggressive debridement,broad-spectrum antibiotics and sufficient local drainage should be used. If available,hyperbaric oxygen therapy may be used to promote healing of tissue wound. Scrotum should be rebuilt based on different conditions.
Objective To investigate a synthetical technique combining static and dynamic states for treating facial paralysis. Methods From October 1993 to November 2005, 93 patients (26 males, 67 females; aged 9-69 years; illness course, 6 months to 24 years) with facial paralysis were admitted for treatment, of whom 48 were unknown in their pathological origins, 32 had a history of intracranial or ear operation, 13 had their facial paralysis related to trauma. We applied synthetical techniques for treating facial paralysis, including denerved muscle (extensor hallucis brevis and extensor digitorum brevis) free graft using an operating or chemical technique, temporal muscular flap suspending, treatment of eye closure by uplifting zygomomalar tissues and temporal muscular flap suspending, brow lifting by the Buried Guiding Suture Appliance, Botox injection, and the nerve amputation of normal side for mandibular marginal ramus paralysis. Results After the treatment for 82 patients with the method of the denerved muscle free graft combining femporal muscular flap suspending, 3 patients with the method of uplifting zygomo-malar tissues combining temporalmuscular flap suspending for eye closure, 15 patients with the method of the Buried Giding Suture for eyebrow lifting, 4 patients with the Botox injection and nerve amputation of normal side for the mandibular marginal ramus paralysis,93 patientshad a good therapeutic result. The follow-up for 3 months to 10 years in all the patients revealed that 75 patients were satisfied with their treatment results and 13 patients were almost satisfied according to the criteria for the facialsymmetrical checking and the House-Brackmann grading system. The technique hadadvantages of a complete survival of the related small muscles, a hidden incision, less trauma for the Botox injection, and the denerved muscles for surrounding nerve inserting. Conclusion The synthetical technique combining static and dynamic states for treating facial paralysis is a good therapeutic method and the therapies for facial paralysis should vary with the different conditions of the paralysis. We advocate an individuation treatment for facial paralysis.
This article report 5 cases of malunion or nonunion ofthe fractures of the jaws which were treated by functional re-duction. From the anatomical and physiological point ofview, this operation was highly versatile and reliable. The re-construction was accomplished precisely in one stage. All pa-tients had a good prognosis.
Objective To explore the comprehensive treatment of synchronous double cancers of the esophagus and stomach. Methods The treatment procedures of 8 patients with synchronous double cancers of the esophagus andstomach admitted in the Department of Digestive Tumor Surgery of The Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine of Jiangsu Province between Oct. 2006 to Feb. 2013 were analyzed. Some experience of comprehensive treatment of synch-ronous double cancers of the esophagus and stomach was explored. Results Eight cases of synchronous double cancers of the esophagus and stomach were all diagnosed by endoscopic biopsy. According to the results of CT and endoscopic ultrasonography assessment, lesions which were staged earlier than T1a were cured by endoscopic mucosal resection(6 cases, including 4 cases of esophagus cancer and 2 cases of gastric cancer), and resection operation (1 cases of esop-hagus cancer). The lesions staged later than T2 were treated by preoperative neoadjuvant chemoradiation, surgery, and adjuvant chemoradiation after operation (8 cases, including 2 cases of esophagus cancer and 6 cases of gastric cancer), and simple operation (1 case). Eight patients had been followed-up for 10-76 months (averaged 41.3 months). Six patients survived without recurrence and metastasis during the followed-up, 1 patient died in 7 months after operation, and 1 patient relapsed in 20 months after operation. Conclusions Individually designed comprehensive treatment using neo-chemotherapy, intervention chemotherapy, radio-chemotherapy, radical resction surgery, adjuvant chemotherapy, and endoscopic mucosal resection can treat synchronous double cancers of the esophagus and stomach effectively. Impr-actical pursuit for radical surgery will not result in good prognosis
The simple ablation of the duplicated thumb might have some residual deformities after operation that often leads to functional disorders of the hand. Since 1988, the postoperative disorders in 9 patients were treated. The plastic surgery was performed for the adduction of the thumb, lateral deviation and insufficient after plastic repair of the hand. The configuration and the function of the thumb were satisfactory.
Objective To investigate the feasibility and clinical value of combined treatment for lung cancer with cerebral metastasis. Methods From May 1999 to May 2005, twentyone patients diagnosed lung cancer with cerebral metastasis received treatment in our hospital. The management consists of cerebral lesion resection, chemotherapy, lung cancer resection and chemotherapy or radiotherapy. Then evaluate the short-term and long-term outcome. Results No severe complications occurred in hospital. The 1-, 2-, and 3-year survival rates were 75.0%(12/16), 37.5%(6/16), and 12.5%(2/16) respectively. Life quality was promoted significantly. Conclusion Although lung cancer with cerebral metastasis is classified as stage Ⅳ,the effect of combined treatment is favorable because of the special metastatic position. But the choice of the patient is important.

ObjectiveTo explore the dynamic changes of immune cell populations in Panc02 pancreatic cancer bearing immunocompetent mice. MethodsThe C57BL6/J mice syngeneic pancreatic cancer cell line Panc02 were subcutaneously implanted to establish the immunocompetent murine pancreatic cancer bearing model.According to the tumor size, the tumor was classified into 4 stages, named T1-T4, respectively.The flow cytometry was performed to identify the dynamic changes of different cell populations, such as inflammatory cells (CD45+), T helper (Th) lymphocytes, cytotoxic T lymphocytes (CTL), B lymphocytes, granulocytes, macrophages, dendritic cells (DC), natural killer (NK) cells, and natural killer T (NKT) cells in the peripheral blood and tumor tissue. ResultsThree dynamic types of immune cells with the tumor progression were identified:consistent increase, consistent decrease, increase and then decrease.①In peripheral blood:The proportion of the Th lymphocytes, CTL, and B lymphocytes consistently decreased; The proportion of granulocytes consistently increased; The proportion of the DC, macrophages, NK cells, and NKT cells increased from T1 to T3 stage but sharply decreased at T4 stage.②In tumor tissue:The intratumoral CD45+ cells consis-tently increased; The proportion of the granucolyte, macrophages, and DC consistently increased; The proportion of the Th lymphocytes and the CTL consistently decreased; The proportion of the B lymphocytes did not change significantly; The proportion of the NK cells or NKT cells increased from T1 to T3 stage but sharply decreased at T4 stage. ConclusionWith pancreatic cancer progression, the immune cell populations show different dynamic change models, which imply their important roles in predicting the prognosis and the integrated treatments of pancreatic cancer.
