  • Expressions of Prostaglandin F2α Receptor and Cyclooxygenase-2 in Tissue of Benign Bile Duct Scar and Their Significances

    ObjectiveTo explore the expressions of prostaglandin F2α receptor (PTGFR) and cyclooxygenase-2 (COX-2) in tissues of benign bile duct scar and their significances, and investigate the regulating effect of transforming growth factor-β1 (TGF-β1) on the expression of PTGFR in human bile duct fibroblasts cultured in vitro. MethodsThe samples of common bile duct (CBD) scars were collected from 18 patients with benign bile duct scar stricture and 6 cases of normal CBD tissues from liver transplantation donor were collected as control. The expressions of PTGFR and COX-2 were detected by immunohistochemical strept-avidin-biotin complex (SABC) method. Semiquantitative RT-PCR and ELISA methods were used to detect the mRNA and protein levels of PTGFR in bile duct fibroblasts which were effected by TGF-β1 with different concentrations (0, 10, 20, and 30 ng/ml) for 24 h. ResultsThe positive rates of PTGFR and COX-2 were 88.9% (16/18) and 83.3% (15/18) in tissues of benigh CBD scar and 33.3% (2/6) and 0 (0/6) in normal CBD tissues (Plt;0.05). The expressions of the PTGFR mRNA and protein levels became upregulated when the concentrations of the TGF-β1 became higher in human bile duct fibroblasts (Plt;0.05). And the effect was concentration dependant to some extent. ConclusionsThe high expressions of PTGFR and COX-2 play important roles in the process of benign bile duct stricture formation. TGF-β1 is able to induce higher expressions of PTGFR mRNA level and the PTGFR protein level in a concentration dependent manner, and regulate the formation of benign bile duct stricture.

  • NOVEL ARTIFICIAL LAMINA FOR PREVENTION OF EPIDURAL ADHESIONS AFTER POSTERIOR CERVICAL LAMINECTOMY

    Objective To evaluate the application of artificial lamina of multi-amino-acid copolymer (MAACP)/nano-hydroxyapatite (n-HA) in prevention of epidural adhesion and compression of scar tissue after posterior cervical laminectomy. Methods Fifteen 2-year-old male goats [weighing, (30 ± 2) kg] were randomly divided into experimental group (n=9) and control group (n=6). In the experimental group, C4 laminectomy was performed, followed by MAACP/n-HA artificial lamina implantations; in the control group, only C4 laminectomy was performed. At 4, 12, and 24 weeks after operation, 2, 2, and 5 goats in the experimental group and 2, 2, and 2 goats in the control group were selected for observation of wound infection, artificial laminar fragmentation and displacement, and its shape; Rydell’s degree of adhesion criteria was used to evaluate the adhesion degree between 2 groups. X-ray and CT images were observed; at 24 weeks after operation, CT scan was used to measure the spinal canal area and the sagittal diameter of C3, C4, and C5 vertebrea, 2 normal goats served as normal group; and MRI was used to assess adhesion and compression of scar tissue on the dura and the nerve root. Then goats were sacrificed and histological observation was carried out. Results After operation, the wound healed well; no toxicity or elimination reaction was observed. According to Rydell’s degree of adhesion criteria, adhesion in the experimental group was significantly slighter than that in the control group (Z= — 2.52, P=0.00). X-ray and CT scan showed that no dislocation of artificial lamina occurred, new cervical bone formed in the defect, and bony spinal canal was rebuilt in the experimental group. Defects of C4 vertebral plate and spinous process were observed in the control group. At 24 weeks, the spinal canal area and sagittal diameter of C4 in the experimental group and normal group were significantly larger than those in the control group (P lt; 0.05), but no significant difference was found between experimental group and normal group (P gt; 0.05). MRI showed cerebrospinal fluid signal was unobstructed and no soft tissue projected into the spinal canal in the experimental group; scar tissue projected into the spinal canal and the dura were compressed by scar tissue in the control group. HE staining and Masson trichrome staining showed that artificial lamina had no obvious degradation with high integrity, some new bone formed at interface between the artificial material and bone in the experimental group; fibrous tissue grew into defect in the control group. Conclusion The MAACP/n-HA artificial lamina could maintaine good biomechanical properties for a long time in vivo and could effectively prevent the epidural scar from growing in the lamina defect area.

  • REPAIR OF FACE AND UPPER LIMB DEFECTS WITH EXPANDED DELTO-PECTORAL AND ABDOMINALPERFORATOR FLAPS

    【Abstract】 Objective To investigate the method and effectiveness of expanded delto-pectoral and abdominalperforator flaps in repairing large defects of the face and upper limb after scar excision. Methods Between August 2000 and February 2011, 25 patients with large scars on face and upper l imb were treated. There were 14 males and 11 females with an average ageof 27 years (range, 7-36 years). Scars causes were burn and scald in 25 cases with a disease duration of 6 months to 7 years (mean, 4.5 years). The hypertrophic scars located at face in 15 cases, and at upper limb and hand in 10 cases. The soft tissue expanders (300-500 mL in volume) were implanted in the delto-pectoral zone and abdominal region in one-stage operation. In two-stage operation, after scars were resected, defects (9 cm × 7 cm to 17 cm × 8 cm) were repaired with the delto-pectoralperforator flaps (17 cm × 7 cm to 20 cm × 8 cm) in 15 facial scar cases and with the deep inferior epigastric artery perforator flaps (10 cm × 9 cm to 25 cm × 14 cm) in 10 upper limb and hand scar cases. The donor sites were sutured directly. Results Partial necrosis of the flaps occurred in 2 cases after operation, then the flap survived after expectant treatment. The other flaps and skin grafts survived successfully, and the incisions healed by first intention. Ten patients were followed up 6 months to 4 years. Theappearance, texture, and color of the flaps were similar to those at the donor site. Conclusion It is an effective method to use the delto-pectoral perforator flap and the deep inferior epigastric artery perforator flap for repairing soft tissue defects of the face and upper limb after scar excision.

    Objective To investigate the procedures and effectiveness of platysma scar flap for reconstructing mentocervical appearance in patients with mentocervical cicatricial contracture deformity. Methods Between April 2004 and August 2011, 26 patients with mentocervical cicatricial contracture deformities were admitted. There were 15 males and 11 females, aged 12-31 years (mean, 18 years). The causes included scald injury in 19 cases and flame injury in 7 cases, including 23 cases of deep second degree burn and 3 cases of third degree burn. The time between injury and scar formation was 6-27 months (mean, 10 months). The mentocervical angle was (117.10 ± 14.46)°, and the cervicomental angle was (143.38 ± 15.68)°. The platysma scar flap transfer (8 cm × 7 cm to 10 cm × 8 cm in size) and skin grafting were performed to reconstruct mentocervical appearance. Results The flap and skin graft all survived and the incisions healed by first intention. All the patients were followed up 6 months-3 years (mean, 16 months). The mentocervical and cervicomental angles were significantly reduced to (89.31 ± 6.30)° and (117.83 ± 10.65)° respectively at 2 weeks after operation (P lt; 0.05), showing no significant difference when compared with normal mentocervical angle (90°) and cervicomental angle (120°) (P gt; 0.05). The satisfactory results of the mentocervical appearance and cervical extension function were obtained in 21 patients whose mentocervical and cervicomental angles were restored to normal. Conclusion Platysma scar flap transfer is an effective method to reconstruct mentocervical appearance and reduce mentocervical and cervicomental angles in patients with mentocervical cicatricial contracture deformity.

    Objective To investigate the effectiveness of repairing severe cicatricial contracture deformity in the web-space by kite-like incision combined with full-thickness skin grafting. Methods Between June 2008 and September 2011, 31 patients (87 web-spaces) with severe cicatricial contracture deformities in the web-spaces were treated. There were 24 males and 7 females, aged 5-43 years (median, 22 years). The causes of injuries were flame burn (26 cases), scald (3 cases), electric arc burn (1 case), and chemical burn (1 case). The degree of burn was deep second degree (14 cases) and third degree (17 cases). The interval time from injury to operation was 10 months to 17 years (median, 2.2 years). The kite-like incision was marked on the scar in the web-space. The rhombic scar between the adjacent metacarpophalangeal joints was excised, and cicatricial contracture was released completely. The secondary wound in the web-space was repaired with full-thickness autogeneic skin grafting. The secondary wound at donor site was directly sutured. Results All full-thickness skin grafts survived well. The incisions at donor sites healed primarily. Of 31 patients, 29 (82 web-spaces) were followed up 6-18 months (mean, 13 months). The sizes and depths of reconstructed web-spaces were similar to those of normal ones. No secondary cicatricial contracture was observed, and the function of fingers recovered well. Conclusion The short-term effectiveness is satisfactory by kite-like incision combined with full-thickness skin grafting for repairing severe cicatricial contracture deformities in the web-space, while the long-term effectiveness needs further observation.

  • REPAIR OF SCAR CONTRACTURE IN WHOLE DORSUM OF HAND BY EXPANDED FULL-THICKNESS SKIN GRAFT

    Objective To investigate the feasibility of repairing secondary wounds after scar excision in patients with scar contracture in whole dorsum of the hands by expanded full-thickness skin grafts. Methods Between February 2008 and February 2011, 15 patients (19 hands) with scar contracture in whole dorsum of the hands were treated. There were 12 males (14 hands) and 3 females (5 hands), aged 18-43 years (mean, 28.6 years). The disease duration was 6-22 months (mean, 13.2 months). All cases complicated by different degrees of metacarpophalangeal joint extension deformity and interphalangeal joint flexion deformity. In one-stage operation, soft tissue expanders were implanted at donor sites, and the time of water injection was 4-5 months; in two-stage operation, scar was excised and secondary wound (14 cm × 9 cm-25 cm × 16 cm in size) was repaired with the expanded full-thickness skin grafts. Results After one-stage operation, the others had good blood supply except 1 case of skin necrosis in the center of expanded skin flap. After two-stage operation, the full-thickness skin grafts survived well in 18 hands; subepidermal effusion occurred in 1 hand, which was cured after changing dressing. The incisions at donor sites healed well in all cases. All patients were followed up 6-18 months (mean, 13.7 months). The grafts were excellent in color, texture, and elasticity, and no hypertrophic scar was observed at the edge and joint of the grafts. The hand function recovered well; the flexion and extension of wrist joint, metacarpophalangeal joint and interphalangeal joint were normal. Conclusion The expanded full-thickness skin graft is a suitable solution to repair effectively scar contracture in whole dorsum of the hands because it has good results in the cosmetic appearance and function recovery of the hands.

  • TRANSFORMING GROWTH FACTOR β1/Smad3 SIGNAL TRANSDUCTION PATHWAY AND POST-TRAUMATIC SCAR FORMATION

    【Abstract】 Objective To summarize the recent progress in related research on transforming growth factor β1 (TGF-β1)/Smad3 signal transduction pathway and post-traumatic scar formation. Methods Recent related literature at home and abroad on TGF-β1/Smad3 signal transduction pathway and post-traumatic scar formation was reviewed and summarized. Results TGF-β1 is an important influence factor of fibrotic diseases, and it plays biological effects by TGF-β1/Smad3 signal transduction pathway. The pathway is regulated by many factors and has crosstalk with other signal pathways at cellular and molecular levels. The pathway is involved in the early post-traumatic inflammatory response, wound healing, and late pathological scar formation. Intervening the transduction pathway at the molecular level can influence the process of fibrosis and extracellular matrix deposition. Conclusion TGF-β1/Smad3 signal transduction pathway is an important way to affect post-traumatic scar formation and extracellular matrix deposition. The further study on the pathway will provide a theoretical basis for promotion of wound healing, as well as prevention and treatment of pathological scar formation.
