However, some cases could appear secondary disorders related to the location of the cyst and the role of decomposition enzymes of content, such as cyst rupture moving into the abdomen, bleeding, cystic infection, compression and internal fistula formation with adjacent organs and so on^([1]). But the spleen-related complications resulting from it are rare. There was 1 patient with pancreatic pseudocyst admitted to Dongfang Hospital Affiliated to Beijing University of Chinese Medicine and the report is as follows.展开更多

While performing the graft replacement operation in such cases, if the collateral circulation supplying the gastrointestinal tract is well developed, it is necessary that this collateral circulation should be well perfused during aortic cross-clamping. A 72-year-old woman was admitted because of expansion of AAA. Computed tomography (CT) scan examination revealed occlusion at the origin of the superior mesenteric artery (SMA) and the development of a collateral circulatory pathway via the inferior mesenteric artery (IMA). During this operation, a vein cannula was placed in the IMA, through which blood was supplied with an extension tube for the protection of the intra-abdominal organs. The IMA was reimplanted after the graft replacement. Previous reports indicate that intestinal ischemia may be successfully prevented by supplying blood to the collateral circulation using various techniques. We report the surgical approach for treatment of AAA using a simple and convenient method to maintain intra-operative blood supply to vital organs.展开更多

Methods: The response surface experimental design with one response and four variables was used to design the experimental tests. Thirty experiments were performed through finite element analysis in order to obtain the designed response values. Results: A nonlinear multivariable regression function was developed based on the experimental data. Results demonstrated the inefficiency of traditional 5-cm criterion for estimating the rupture of AAA. The profound effect of wall thickness on the peak wall stress has been observed and validated by the existing publications. Conclusion: The conventional 5-cm criterion for estimating AAA rupture might induce biased prediction, and multiple clinical risk factors need to be considered in realistic clinical settings.展开更多
