Venous malformation(VM) results from an error in vascular morphogenesis; veins are dilated with thin walls and abnormal smooth muscle. Consequently, lesions expand, flow stagnates, and clotting occurs. Lesions are blue, soft, and compressible; hard calcified phleboliths may be palpable. VMs may range from small localized skin lesions to diffuse malformations involving multiple tissue planes and vital structures. A VM is especially problematic because it is progressive; it enlarges over time, particularly during adolescence; and often reexpands after treatment.Consequently, most patients who present with congenital lesions will ultimately require intervention.The first-line treatment of problematic VMs is sclerotherapy, which is generally safer and more effective than resection. Sclerotherapy involves the injection of a sclerosant into the malformation, which then cause cellular destruction, thrombosis, and intense inflammation. Scarring leads to shrinkage of the lesion. Good to excellent results are obtained in75%to90%of patients, including reduction in the size of the malformation and alleviation of the symptoms. Often, multiple treatments are required.In our country, Pingyangmycin sclerotherapy as a conventional treatment method for the treatment of venous malformation is observed to have exact curative effect. In order to guide application, therapeutic method of venous malformation with Pingyangmycin and lidocaine was proposed by committee of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery, Branch Association of stomatology, China medical Association in2011.On one hand, Lidocaine as amide local anaesthetics can be used at different sites to block sensory nerve and lead to anesthesia, with strong penetrability and diffusivity. During the treatment of venous malformation, it can help to alleviate reflective vasospasm caused by the pain due to embolisation with Pingyangmycin and promote the medicine to fill up the nidus more completely. On the other hand, Lidocaine as calmodulin inhibitor has sensitivity-increasing effect for antineoplastic drug.This subject adopts the spleen of Kunming mouse as the animal model for human cavernous venous malformation to observe toxic effects of Lidocaine of different concentrations and Pingyangmycin of different concentrations to splenic vascular endothelial cells at different time, and toxic effects of combined medicine of Pingyangmycin and Lidocaine of different concentrations to vascular endothelial cells at different time, and to explore whether Lidocaine has synergic action to Pingyangmycin for the treatment of cavernous venous malformation by means of paraffin section optical microscopic observation, ultrathin section electron microscopic observation, labeling apoptotic cells in terminal transferase mediated nick end labeling method (TUNEL method), comparing apoptosis rate according to Image-Pro Plus6.0pathologic cells’image analysis system, and detecting expression of cysteinyl aspartate specific protease-3(Caspase-3) of apoptosis factor by real-time quantitative PCR technology. Retrospectively analyze treating cavernous venous malformation with Pingyangmycin and Lidocaine of different concentrations to explore the influence of Lidocaine for curative effect in aspect of clinic medication proportion; retrospectively analyze treating superficial cavernous venous malformation with Pingyangmycin of different concentrations to explore the influence of Pingyangmycin concentration for therapeutic effect and guide clinic medication; retrospectively analyze treating superficial venous malformation with Pingyangmycin of low concentration to conclude therapeutic effect.Part I Experimental Study on Influence of Lidocaine for the Treatment of Venous Malformation by PingyangmycinExperiment1Influence of Lidocaine of Different Concentrations for Mouse Splenic Vascular Endothelial CellsObjective:To explore cytotoxicity of lidocaine to vascular endothelial cells.Method:Separate88female Kunming mice into4groups at random according to randomized block design principle, in which16mice in group A are physiological saline control group;72mice in experimental group are divided into three groups B, C and D,24in each group, which are separately0.1%Lidocaine group,0.2%Lidocaine group, and0.4%Lidocaine group. Every group is divided into4subgroups according to schedule (2,5,8and14d group). The control group has4in every schedule subgroup, and the experimental group has6in every schedule subgroup. Mice was narcotized with10%chloral hydrate (3ml/kg) by intraperitoneal injection and disinfected. Surgical incision into the abdominal wall, turn up the stomach to reveal the spleen, puncture in long axis direction of the spleen with lml injector. Inject0.3ml physiological saline to contrast group and inject0.3ml Lidocaine Hydrochloride of different concentrations to experimental group. Withdraw injector at uniform speed while injecting, slightly press the pinhole of injector to stop bleeding, sew by layers, and continue to feed. Process4mice in control group on the2nd,5th,8th, and14th day after surgery, and6mice in experimental group B, C, and D. Open the peritoneal cavity along original cut after anesthesia, dissociate and cut off blood vessel and ligate mesentery around spleen, fetch the spleen, remove its head and tail, divided the middle section of the spleen into two parts., put into10%neutral formalin or2.5%glutaraldehyde solution respectively. Observe specimen changes at different concentrations and different times after HE staining; detect the apoptosis in TUNEL method by the following steps:prepare2sections for each specimen and analyze TUNEL labeling section of every group by Image-Pro Plus6.0pathologic cells’ image analysis system. Randomly select6images under optical microscope at400times in every section.count TUNEL positive cell ratio (=6positive cell counts at high magnification/total cell counts×100%) in each section and calculate its mean value. Observe the changes of vascular endothelial cells under electron microscope.Statistical Method:Normal distributed measurement data is described by mean±standard deviation (χ±s).Factor analysis was used to test the effect of interaction between group and time. If the effect of interaction was statistically significant then analyzed the effect alone. If the data are normal distribution and equal variance, then analyze by one-way ANOVA; if the data are abnormal distribution and (or) heterogeneity of variance, then adopt Kruskal-Wallis H Rank sum test; and if there is statistical significance, further make multiple comparison in SNK method, in which, if P﹤0.05, the disparity has statistical significance. The data were analyzed by SPSS software16.0.Result:The appearances of physiological saline group have no significant changes on the2nd,5th,8th, and14th day, through general observation, manifesting that the capsulae is smooth and complete, the edge is tidy and without swelling. There is no obvious difference between every experimental group and control group.Under microscope, physiological saline group shows normal spleen performances at every time point:the spleen surface is with a thin layer of fibrous tissue, the outer layer are monolayer mesothelial cells; under which the red and white pulps are clear, blood sinus is not dilated, the splenic sinus is lined with monolayer endothelial cells which are complete, the blood sinus is filled with appropriate amount of erythrocyte, there are no inflammatory cells infiltrated in mesenchyme, and the histiocyte has no hyperplasia; the splenic corpuscle has clear structure and the germinal center is not dilated.0.1%Lidocaine group:there is no obvious difference compared with contraol group at every time point.0.2%Lidocaine group:in2d day group, it shows a normal spleen performance; in5th day group, the splenic sinus bleeds occasionally; in8th day group, there are occasionally inflammatory cells infiltrated in mesenchyme and there appears local mononuclear or polynuclear macrophage occasionally; in14th day group, the infiltrated inflammatory cells are more than that in8th day group, there are fibrous protein exuding occasionally, and there appears polynuclear macrophages that swallow cell debris occasionally.0.4%Lidocaine group:in2nd day group, the splenic sinus is occasionally dilated and hyperemic, the red and white pulps are clear, and there are occasionally inflammatory cells infiltrated in mesenchyme; in5th day group, splenic sinus is dilated and obviously hyperemic, and inflammatory cells infiltrated in mesenchyme is increased; in8th day group, there exists interstitial cell infiltration, there is a small quantity of fibrous protein exuding, partial spleen trabecular structure is slightly obscure, and there appears polynuclear macrophages that swallow cell debris; in14th day group, the interstitial cell infiltration and fibrous protein exudation are increased, there appears fewer polynuclear macrophages that swallow cell debris locally, and the structures of partial red and white pulps are obscure.Transmission Electron Microscope Observation:It was revealed that three groups (A, B and C group)showed the similar represent at the different time:red pulp in large quantities,integrate structure of blood sinus, good cell junction, many red blood cell in blood sinus, lymphocytes dispersed well and integrate organelles. No apoptotic bodies was observed under electronic microscope. In the D group, there was no obvious histology change of spleen at the2nd and5th day,but failure of blood sinus and apoptotic bodies can be observed at8th and14th day.Factor analysis was used to test the endothelial cell apoptosis rate, the comparisons of four groups have statistical significance (F组间=107.676, P组间=0.000),the comparisons at the four time points have statistical significance (F时间=4.725, P时间=0.005) and the effect of interaction between group and time was statistically significant.(F组间×时间=13.682, P组间×时间=0.000)The results of analysis show that the difference of apoptosis rate had no statistics significance at four time points in the group A (F=0.296, P=0.828). Both B (χ2=3.687, P=0.297)and C (χ2=4.167, P=0.244)group showed the same result as A in the tests. The results of analysis show that the difference of apoptosis rate had statistics significance at four time points in the group D (x2=19.747, P=0.000).14th day group>8th day group>5th day group, and14th day group>2nd day group.Apoptosis rate comparison between all groups at different time points:in2nd day group, the comparison differences between every group have no statistical significance (F=1.386, P=0.279); in5th day group,8th group, and14group, the apoptosis rates of0.4%Lidocaine group are rising compared with other groups, D group> A group (P<0.05), D group>B group (P<0.05) and D group>C group (P <0.05).Conclusion:When Lidocaine is of the concentrations of0.1%and0.2%, mice splenic vascular endothelial cells has no histological changes and all physiological functions work well, which cannot lead cell apoptosis. But as the intervention concentration of Lidocaine is increased and the action time is prolonged, the Lidocaine will have cytotoxicity and lead to cell apoptosis. Lidocaine inducing mice splenic vascular endothelial cells apoptosis has a time and concentration dependence.Experiment2Influence of Pingyangmycin of Different Concentrations for Mouse Splenic Vascular Endothelial CellsObjective:Explore Cytotoxicity of Pingyangmycin to Vascular Endothelial Cells.Method:Separate88female Kunming mice into4groups at random according to randomized block design principle, in which16mice in group A are physiological saline control group;72mice in experimental group are divided into three groups B, C and D,24in each group, which are separately0.5mg/ml Pingyangmycin group,1mg/ml Pingyangmycin group, and2mg/ml Pingyangmycin group.
