[Long-term follow-up of enlargement annulus aortic valve replacement in small aortic root].
To investigate the long-term survival of patients after aortic valve replacement with enlarged annulus. ⋯ Patient-prosthesis mismatch with heart valve prostheses as demonstrated by the indexed effective orifice area can be avoided by use of Manouguian's annulus enlarging techniques. The hemodynamic performance of these aortic valve prostheses is satisfactory.

[Clinical application of retrograde cerebral perfusion for brain protection during the surgery of ascending aortic aneurysm: 50 cases report].
To assess retrospectively the effects of different protective methods on brain in ascending aortic aneurysm surgery. ⋯ The application of RCP could prolong the safety duration of circulation arrest. Cerebral perfusion may reep the brain cool and flush out particulate and air embolism. Open anastomosis of the aortic arch to the prosthesis can be safely performed. RCP is acceptable for brain protection in clinical practice.

[Vascularized iliac bone grafting for avascular necrosis of the femoral head].
To evaluate the indications for vascularized iliac bone grafting in the treatment of osteonecrosis of the femoral head and operative results. ⋯ Vascularized iliac bone grafting is effective for the treatment of osteonecrosis of the femoral head in short and middle term. We recommend this procedure for the patients with ONFH in ARCO stage I, stage IIA, IIB medial and central, and stage IIC medial.
