Photodiagnosis and photodynamic therapy最新文献

In recent years, it has been reported that indocyanine green can be used for intraoperative navigation in Kasai surgery. However, there are no reports of its application in surgery for rare type II cystic biliary atresia. We report a girl presented with jaundice and light-colored stools. Laboratory tests showed impaired liver function with elevated serum bilirubin and bile acid levels. The abdominal ultrasound and MRCP suggested a common hepatic duct cyst. A diagnosis of choledochal cyst was suspected and biliary atresia could not be excluded. Conservative treatment was unsatisfactory. Laparoscopic exploration with indocyanine green fluorescence was performed on the 38th day of her life, and intraoperative diagnosis of type II CBA was made because the common hepatic duct cyst and its downstream anatomical structures did not show fluorescence. The postoperative bilirubin and bile acid levels decreased significantly and she was discharged two weeks after surgery. This result suggests that indocyanine green can be safely used in laparoscopic surgery for type II CBA, which not only helps in the differential diagnosis of CBA and choledochal cyst, but also confirms bile flow in real time.

Rosai-Dorfman disease(RDD) is a rare benign histiocytic proliferative disorder. Cutaneous Rosai-Dorfman disease(CRDD)is a rare variant of RDD with lesions localized to the skin. We report a case of patients with CRDD who was refractory to methotrexate, thalidomide, cyclosporine, glucocorticoid for local injection and external use, but resolved with fractional laser combined with 5-aminolevulinic acid photodynamic therapy (ALA-PDT). We believe that fractional laser technology combined with ALA-PDT for CRDD is a minimally invasive, effective and satisfactory treatment.

Purpose: To evaluate anterior segment parameter changes following scleral buckling (SB) surgery for rhegmatogenous retinal detachment (RRD) using the Pentacam Scheimpflug system.

Methods: Twenty-eight phakic eyes of 28 patients who underwent SB surgery for RDD were included. The anterior chamber volume (ACV), central anterior chamber depth (CACD), mean anterior chamber angle (ACA) and ACA in a specific position (buckle quadrant), and central corneal thickness (CCT) were evaluated preoperatively and at 1 day, 1 week, and 1 and 3 months postoperatively by an anterior Pentacam Scheimpflug method.

Results: The ACV parameters were significantly decreased compared with preoperative levels at 1 day after SB surgery (P = 0.0004), but had no significant differences at 1 week, and 1 and 3 months (P > 0.05). The mean intraocular pressure (IOP) at 1 day was significantly higher than the preoperative level, but no subsequent significant difference was noted between the preoperative IOP and that at 1 week and 1 and 3 months postoperatively (P > 0.05). The CCT at 1 day after surgery increased significantly (P = 0.0122) and subsequently returned to the normal level postoperatively at 1 week and remained stable until 3 months (P > 0.05). The degree of postoperative ACA displayed different changes in the different quadrants and there was a significant increase in the ACA of the buckle quadrants at 1 day (P < 0.0001), 1 week (P = 0.02), and 1 month (P = 0.0266) after surgery, returning to the normal level at 3 months.

Conclusions: The changes of anterior chamber parameters after SB can be demonstrated by Pentacam both objectively and quantitatively. The ACV and CCT changes were mild and resumed their preoperative parameters after 1 week, while the increase of the ACA at the buckle quadrant returned to normal after 3 months. SB surgeries without encircling or conducted with radial buckling might decrease anterior chamber change.
