[Relationship between endothelial protein C receptor gene 6936A/G polymorphisms and deep venous thrombosis].

Objective: To investigate the relationship between endothelial protein C receptor(EPCR) gene 6936A/G polymorphism and deep vein thrombosis (DVT).

Methods: The study group included 65 DVT patients and 71 normal controls. Plasma sEPCR was measured by ELISA.

[Treatment of the infrequent complications after stent graft placement for aortic disease].

Objective: To explore the infrequent complications and treatment after endoluminal stent graft implantation for aortic diseases.

Methods: Review of the characters and complications for five cases of aortic diseases by stent graft implantation.

Results: The complications of 4 cases have been relieved by operation or re-stent implantation, 1 case was died.

[Exploration on endovascular treatment for disorders of great vessels].

Objective: To explore the efficacy and shortcoming of endovascular therapy with mainly endovascular graft in treating disorders occurring in the thoracic or thoracoabdominal aorta.

Methods: Total 137 cases with great vessel disorders including dissections, aneurysm, pseudoaneurysm, aortic deceleration injury and coarctation were treated by endovascular technique. The lowest lesion located between the celiac and mesenteric arteries.

Deployment of endograft in the ascending aorta to reverse type A aortic dissection.

Current surgery to treat acute type A aortic dissection involving an intimal tear in the ascending aorta consists of resection and replacement, but mortality is high. We report the case of a 46-year-old female patient with Marfan syndrome who presented with excruciating retrosternal pain and breathing distress after a bowel movement with stress. Magnetic resonance imaging and multicolour sonography showed type A aortic dissection extending from the aortic root to the right iliac artery, with intimal tears in the ascending aorta above the sinotubular junction, the distal arch beyond the left subclavian artery and the isthmic region.
