Abstract:

Objecitive Under the fluorescent microscope,we used fluorescein sodium fluorescence to determine glioma boundary,thus gliomas removed through surgery more thoroughly.Methods We randomly selected 14 patients who were admitted in the First Hospital of JiLin University as the research objects,patients with glioma were diagnosed as glioma according to the physical signs,physical examination,and imaging findings before surgery.Diagnosed with glioma,intraoperative application of fluorescein sodium yellow fluorescence was determined the tumor boundary,and removal of the tumor,according to the fluorescence intensity strength is different.The pathological diagnosis was to determine the boundary of fluorescent was accurate.Postoperative examined MRI was performed in order to make clear the excision of the tumor,and the neurological condition of postoperative was observed.Results Glioma could be inspired by yellow fluorescence under fluorescent microscope.The normal brain tissue was not light.Postoperative pathological Results showed that the fluorescent yellow area contained a lot of glioma cells,pale yellow fluorescence area found a small amount of glioma cells.Postoperative enhanced MRI scan had confirmed that application of fluorescein sodium could be more thoroughly resection of glioma,postoperative dysfunction was reduced.Conclusion This method is prior to tumor boundary observasion without fluoresent staining and reducing the recurrence of the tumor and reducing the normal brain tissue damage,and therefore,improving the quality of postoperative survival of patients.
