ObjectiveTo evaluate the value of real-time indocyanine green fluorescence imaging navigation (ICG-FIN) in laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery. MethodsThe patients who adopted ICG-FIN during laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery in the Department of Anorectal Surgery of Xuzhou Central Hospital from April 2022 to June 2023 according to the inclusion and exclusion criteria (ICG-FIN group) were collected, meanwhile matching (1∶1) of patients who did not adopt ICG-FIN during laparoscopic surgery from January 2021 to May 2022 (control group). The general data, surgical conditions, intraoperative and postoperative outcomes between the two groups were compared. ResultsThere were 62 patients in the ICG-FIN group and 62 patients in the control group. There were no statistical differences in the gender, age, body mass index, comorbidities, and so on between the two groups (P>0.05). The tumor localization, lymph node tracing, fluorescence imaging of the intended resection of intestinal tract and anastomotic site were observed in the ICG-FIN group. Seven patients (11.3%) had changed in the intended resection of intestinal anastomotic line during surgery, while there were no changes of the surgical plan in the control group. There were no statistical differences (P>0.05) in terms of surgical method, operative time, intraoperative bleeding, proportion of ileostomy, time of the first postoperative exhaust, postoperative hospital stay, and incidence of short-term complications between the two groups. Compared with the control group, the incidence of anastomotic leakage was lower (P=0.012), and the number of lymph nodes cleaned was more (P=0.016) in the ICG-FIN group. However, there was no statistical difference in the number of positive lymph nodes detected between the two groups (P=0.343). ConclusionsAccording to the results of this study, ICG-FIN is a reliable and effective method during laparoscopic rectal cancer surgery, which can accurately localize tumor, trace and guide lymph node dissection. Real-time evaluation of intestinal blood flow perfusion is of great practical value in reducing anastomotic leakage.
OBJECTIVE :To investigate ocular vessel flow velocity in normal eyes by color Doppler imaging(CDI). METHODS: Ninety people (180 normal eyes)had flow velocity measured by CDI in three vessels,ophthalmic artery (OA),central retinal artery(CRA) and posterior ciliary artery (PCA),and the relations between velocity and affecting factors were analysed. RESULT: The diastolic and systolic velocity of OA,CRA and PCA were (31.7plusmn;10.9)cm/s, (7.2plusmn;2.6)cm/,s, (10.2plusmn;3.4)cm/s, (2.8plusmn;1.2)cm/s and (11.3plusmn;3.6)cm/s, (3.2plusmn;1.4)cm/s respectively. The velocity of OA had possitive correl-ativity with RBC,HCT and negative correlativity with age,while it revealed no relationship with sex, laterality of right or left eye,and normal IOP. CDI of ocular vessels in normal eyes is a triangle with three peaks and double sunkens in its frenquency spectum, revealed highly resistant,and both the pulsatility and resistive indexes were relatively high. The width of each frequency band basically was the same,and there was no obvious frequency window. CONCLUSION: The ocular application of CDI might lay the foundation of a comparatively comprehensive knowledge of the ocular hemodynamics. （Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,1997,13: 99-101）

PURPOSE:To observe the clinical features of the macular hemorrhage in myopes. METHOD:Twenty-four patients(30 eyes)with myopic macular hemorrhage were examined with slitlamp biomicroscopy,funduscope,A/B ultrasonography,and fundus fluorecein angiography(FFA). The patients were followed up for 3~18 months(average 12 months). RESULTS: Four of 26 eyes with macular hemorrhage examined with FFA were found to be due to choroidal neovaseulature,and they were associated with posterior staphyloma. The other 22 eyes without neovascular change were thought to be simple type,and 19 of them were associated with lacquer cracks. The hemorrhage in simple type cases deminished usually within 1~3 months. CONCLUSION:Myopic macular hemorrhagic eyes of neovascular type resulted usually in recurrent hemorrhage and worse prognosis in visual acuity than those of simple type. （Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,1996,12: 220-222）
Objective To observe the characteristics of indocyanine green angiography and fundus fluorescein angiography (ICGA amp; FFA) in anterior ischemic optic neuropathy ( AION ) , and to investigate the etiology of AION and the value of ICGA and FFA in the diagnosis and study of AION. Methods Simultaneous ICGA and FFA were performed on 32 eyes of 31 AION patients and 38 eyes of 38 non-AION patients. Results The eyes that all or a part of the optic disclies in the watershed zon es of the choroidal blood supply were significantly more in the AION group tha n those in the non-AION group (Plt; 0.005 ) . All the watershed zones through the optic disc were vertical in shape. The fluorescence filling of the inferior and superior choroidal blood vessels near the optic disc were all slower than that of the temporal and nasal choroidal blood vessels. The types of watershed zones in the AION group were highly correspondent to the ischemic areas of the optic disc . In early ICGA , no fluorescence appeared at the optic disc, and in later stage, the ischemic area revealed no fluorescence, and the other area showed mostly asymmetric fluorescence. Conclusion The onset of AION is correlative to the choroidal blood supply around the optic disc. ICGA is more valuable in the diagnosis and study of AION than FFA .

Objective To observe the location of peripapillary choroidal watershed zones relative to the optic disc in the different types of glaucoma. Methods A total of 98 patients (98 eyes) with glaucoma (glaucoma group) were enrolled in this study. The eyes included 34 eyes with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG group), 33 eyes with normal tension glaucoma (NTG group) and 31 eyes with chronic angle closure glaucoma (CACG group). Thirty-seven fellow eyes of 37 patients with monocular blunt trauma were selected in this study as control group. The differences of age (t=1.197), sex (chi;2=3.548), average diopter (t=-1.644) between glaucoma group and control group were not statistically significant (P＞0.05). The differences of age (F=2.645), sex (F=1.984), average diopter (F=2.621), and visual fields mean defect (MD) (F=0.899) between different types of glaucoma were also not statistically significan(P＞0.05).Simultaneous indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) and fundus fluorescein angiography (FFA) were performed on all subjects. The watershed zones were classified into three types according to its location relative to the optic disc: in type Ⅰ, the watershed zone did not include the optic disc or could not be observed; in type Ⅱ, the watershed zone partially included the optic disc; in type Ⅲ, the watershed zone completely included the optic disc. The location of watershed zones relative to the optic disc in the different types of glaucoma was comparatively analyzed. The relationship between watershed zones, type and age, and MD were also analyzed by Pearson analysis method. Results The constituent ratio of type Ⅱ and Ⅲ watershed zones were 81.6% and 56.8% in glaucoma group and control group, respectively; with a statistically significant difference (chi;2=8.756,P＜0.003). The constituent ratios of type Ⅱ and Ⅲ watershed zones were 82.4%, 90.9%, 71.1% in POAG, NTG and CACG group, respectively. No significant differences were found between POAG and NTG group (chi;2=1.039), POAG and CACG group (chi;2=1.039, 1.166;P＞0.05). But there was significant difference between NTG and CACG group (chi;2=4.107,P＜0.05). Significant differences were found between POAG and control group, NTG and control group (chi;2=5.352, 10.141;P＜0.05). No significant difference was found between CACG and control group (chi;2=1.444,P＞0.05). There was no correlation between age and watershed zone type (r=0.114,P＞0.05). The watershed zones type of glaucoma group positively correlated with MD (r=0.354,P=0.000). Conclusion The peripapillary choroidal watershed zones in glaucoma patients include the optic disc more than in healthy eyes.
ObjectiveTo investigate the application value of indocyanine green (ICG) fluorescence imaging technology for determining the blood supply of parathyroid in thyroid surgery.MethodsThe patients who underwent total thyroidectomy and bilateral central lymph node dissection for papillary thyroid carcinoma (PTC) from June 1, 2017 to January 1, 2018 were prospectively enrolled and then divided into a study group and control group randomly. The study group used the ICG fluorescence imaging technology to evaluate the blood supply of the parathyroid glands, while the control group assessed the blood supply by naked eyes, then determined that whether the parathyroid glands were retained in situ or autotransplanted. The incidence of hypoparathyroidism, length of hospital stay, and parathyroid hormone (PTH) were compared between the two groups.Results① A total of 60 patients with PTC were included in the study, and 30 patients in each group. There were no significant differences in the baseline informations of the two groups such as the gender, age, comorbidities, and preoperative PTH, Ca2+ levels, etc. (P>0.05). ② The ICG score of type A parathyroid glands (except type A3) was lower than that of type B parathyroid glands (0.99±0.38 versus 1.45±0.58, t=–2.395, P<0.05). ③ The length of postoperative hospital stay was shorter in the study group than in the control group (t=–2.159, P=0.035). ④ The ICG fluorescence imaging could significantly reduce the incidence of temporary hypoparathyroidism (χ2=5.079, P=0.024). The incidence of permanent hypoparathyroidism was not statistically different between the two groups (χ2=1.000, P=0.317), and only 1 case appeared in the control group. ⑤ There were no statistically significant differences in the PTH and serum Ca2+ levels at day 1, month 1, month 3, and month 6 after the surgery between the two groups (P>0.05). ConclusionICG fluorescence imaging technology could be used to determine blood supply of parathyroid in situ in real time during operation. Further studies are needed to confirm this conclusion.
Objective To summarize the monitoring methods and preventions of the disorder of blood supplying of expanded flaps, so as to provide some references for improving the survival of expanded flaps. Methods The domestic and abroad related literature about the disorder of blood supplying of expanded flaps was reviewed and analyzed. Results Handheld Doppler, digital subtraction angiography, computer tomographic angiography, magnetic resonance angiography, and fluorescein angiography can be used as reliable preoperative imaging methods in designing expanded flaps with rich blood supply. Several techniques can be used for monitoring the blood supply of expanded flaps during the early postoperative period including traditional monitoring via physical examination, monitoring via dynamic infrared thermography, near-infrared spectroscopy tissue oximeter, external and implantable Doppler, and more recently developed diffuse correlation spectroscopy. Surgical delay, bloodletting, leech therapy, hyperbaric oxygen, and so on can decrease the risk of necrosis in expanded flaps. Conclusion The survival of expanded flap is influenced by many factors. Preoperative design by using handheld Doppler and new imaging technology and postoperative early detection of blood supply can provide references of timely intervention, so that ischemic necrosis of the flaps can be reduced, and the success rate of surgery can be improved.
Objective To observe the histopathological changes in human eyes with ischemic central retinal vein occlusion (CRVO), and to provide objective basis for effective methods of prevention and treatment for (CRVO). Methods Histopathological analysis was performed on the samples of 11 eyes in 11 patients with ischemic CRVO. The changes of central retinal veins (CRV) and central retinal arteries (CRA) wereobserved. Results The lumen of CRV became narrow when passed through the lamina cribrosa in 11 eyes, in which organized thrombus was found in the lamina cribrosa region and post lamina cribrosa region in 5 eyes, and organized thrombus re-unobstructed channels, endothelial proliferation and narrow lumen were found in 6 eyes. Arteriosclerosis of the CRA was observed in all of the 11 eyes with thick wall of the artery and narrow lumen. Proliferation of endothelium of wall of CRA and narrow lumen in the lamina cribrosa region was found in 2 eyes and no thrombus was found at the lamina cribrosa level. Conclusion During the course of ischemic CRVO, thrombus occurs in CRV at the level of lamina cribrosa. The prognosis of CRVO may lie on the time and degree the thrombosis re-opens. The mechanism of CRVO is that CRV is pressed in the narrow interspace of scleral channels of lamina cribrosa. (Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis, 2007, 23: 163-165)
