OBJECTIVE: To investigate the location of transverse rectus abdominis musculocutaneous (TRAM) flap perforators on abdomen skin and the peak systolic flow velocities of the perforators. METHODS: A series of 94 consecutive patient’s TRAM flap perforators were detected by color-flow duplex Doppler scanning peroperatively. Perforator locations were tabulated on the abdomen skin according to their vertical position relative to the umbilicus and their lateral location relative to the abdominal midline. RESULTS: The perforators on both left and right side of TRAM flap were quite not symmetry. The peri-umbilical region contained 81.1% of the perforators. All perforators were detected with peak systolic flow velocities ranging from 5 to 81 cm/s. CONCLUSION: The preoperative color-flow Doppler localization of TRAM flap perforators improves the surgeon’s ability to design the flap in order to capture the dominant vessels, and select single- or double-pedicle and free TRAM flaps based on each patient’s individual characteristics.
Objective To explore the effectiveness of arterial crisis after replantation of limb treated by ultrasound guided Fogarty balloon catheter. Methods Between January 2012 and July 2016, 27 patients suffered from arterial crisis after replantation of limb were treated with ultrasound guided Fogarty balloon catheter combined with thrombolytic anticoagulant. There were 18 males and 9 females with the age of 19-51 years (mean, 32 years). The limb mutilation position was at knee joint in 3 cases, lower limb in 9 cases, ankle joint in 6 cases, elbow joint in 2 cases, forearm in 4 cases, and wrist joint in 3 cases. The arterial crisis happened at 2.5-18 hours (mean, 7.5 hours) after limb replantation surgery. Color doppler ultrasonography was used to diagnose the arterial thrombosis, finally the anastomotic thrombosis were found in 16 cases, non-anastomotic thrombosis in 7 cases, and combined thrombosis in 4 cases. All the thrombosis were deteced in the arteries with the length of 0.8-3.9 cm. Results No complication such as vascular perforation, rupture, air embolism, thromboembolism, wound infection, or sepsis happened after operation. Arterial crisis occurred again in 3 cases at 1.5-13.5 hours after limb replantation and treated by arterial exploration, 1 case was treated successfully; 2 cases had arterial occlusion and partial necrosis of limb, and got amputation treatment at last. The rest 24 cases survived with the incision healing by first stage. In the 24 cases, 1 case suffered from acute myonephropathic metabolic syndrome and corrected after hemodialysis; 1 case suffered from acute liver functional damage and corrected by comprehensive treatment of internal medicine. The 24 patients were followed up 7-38 months (mean, 11 months). At last follow-up, blood supply of the limb was good with normal skin temperature and improved sense of feeling, activity, and swelling. According to Chinese Medical Association of hand surgery to the upper extremity function assessment standard, the results were excellent in 12 cases, good in 8 cases, and fair in 4 cases with an excellent and good rate of 83.3%. Conclusion Ultrasound guided Fogarty balloon catheter treatment of posterior replantation of arterial crisis can accurately locate the thrombosis, get the thrombus fast and invasive minimally to avoid the blind and repeated thrombectomy, and obtain certain effectiveness.
目的 分析彩色多普勒超声对肝硬化患者门静脉血流改变的评价作用。 方法 选择2010年1月-2011年4月收治的50例肝硬化患者作为观察组,其中代偿期患者27例,失代偿期患者23例;同时设置健康对照组50名,比较两组的门静脉内径(Dpv)、门静脉平均血流速度(Vpv)、门静脉血流量(Qpv)。 结果 观察组患者的Dpv增宽,Vpv减慢,Qpv减少,与对照组比较,差异均有统计学意义(P<0.05);且失代偿期患者的改变更为明显,与代偿期患者间差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。 结论 彩色多普勒超声检查门静脉血流改变可以对肝硬化患者进行初步确诊。
目的:探讨彩色多普勒超声在诊断冠状动脉造影术后引发的医源损伤性假性动脉瘤的临床价值。方法: 经股动脉穿刺,行冠状动脉造影术而发生的股动脉假性动脉瘤共39例,所有患者都采用高频彩色多普勒诊断仪,对动脉瘤的二维超声图像、彩色多普勒图像及脉冲多普勒图像进行分析。结果: 39例假性动脉瘤患者在穿刺部位动脉的一侧均显示一搏动性无回声区或混合性低回声区;彩色多普勒显示无回声区内呈涡流或旋转样血流信号,表现为一半红色一半蓝色;脉冲多普勒显示典型的双期双向频谱。39例假性动脉瘤彩色多普勒超声诊断完全明确。其中32例在彩色多普勒超声监控下行人工加压包扎修复。7例经血管外科手术修补治疗。结论: 彩色多普勒超声在诊断冠状动脉造影术后造成的医源损伤性假性动脉瘤,在观察动脉瘤的大小、形态、瘤体的结构,判断来源动脉破口定位上准确、简便、无创,且可在超声引导下行安全无创治疗,可作为该病诊断及治疗的首选方法。
Objective To determine the affected factors of intraorbital hemodynamic results in diabetic retinopathy (DR) and the risk factors related to the occurrence of DR. Methods Posterior ciliary artery (PCA), central retinal artery (CRA), central retinal vein (CRV), and vortex vein (VV) of 68 patients with DR were measured by color Doppler flow image (CDFI). Thirty-one hemodynamic parameters, including systolic velocity, diastolic velocity, mean velocity, resistive index, pulsatility index and accelerative velocity of ophthalmic artery (OA), and other variates (blood pressure, blood sugar, gender, age, duration of the disease, and so on) were collected and clustered in a principal components analys is following a forward, stepwise logistic regression on these components. Results Nine principal components were extracted from 37 original variates, reflecting the velocity of OA, velocity of PCA, resistance of OA, velocity of CRA,resistance of CRA, resistance of PCA, time-related factor, venous drainage factor and gender factor, respectively. In the result of logistic regression, resistance of OA, velocity of CRA, resistance of PCA, time-related factor, and venous drainage factor were the risk factors related to DR. Conclusion The first risk factor affecting DR is time, and intraorbital hemodynamic abnormity influencing the development of diabetic retinopathy may be the increase of resistance of OA, decrease of velocity of CRA, decrease of resistance of PCA, and increase of venous drainage.
