Year of the loong said that there are many stories in Jiulong Village.

Talking about the past in Jiulong Village

"Dragon" is the totem of the Chinese nation, which plays an important role in Chinese culture and has many stories and legends. Recently, the reporter walked into Jiulong Village, Datang Town, Xincheng County, Laibin City, Guangxi, and listened to the local people telling the story of Jiulong Village.

Along the rolling mountain road, the reporter came to Jiulong Village in the southeast of Datang Town. There are six natural villages under the jurisdiction of Jiulong Village, including Jialong Village, Jiuwai Village, Banjia Village, Badu Village, Badu Village and Shiti Village. With Jialong Village and Jiuwai Village as the main bodies, they are named after two natural villages, so they are called "Jiulong". In addition, the local people often compare the mountain to a dragon. Because the terrain of Jialongtun is long and narrow, it is like a long dragon entrenched at the foot of the mountain, so it is called "Jialong".

There are 676 households with 2412 people in Jiulong Village, which is connected to Zhaidong Village in Datang Town and Xinqiao Village in Andong Township in the east, Andong Village in Andong Township in the south, Zhainan Village in Datang Town in the west and Zhaibei Village in Tangtang Town of Beijing Jiaotong University. Here is beautiful scenery, known as the "land of fish and rice".

"To understand Jiulong Village, we must first understand Lalongtun, which is now Jialongtun." Mai Xiaohui, former secretary of the Party General Branch of Jiulong Village and director of the village committee, told the reporter that according to the tombstone unearthed in the village, Lalongtun was founded in the Kangxi period of the Qing Dynasty, when the ancestor Mai Laobai moved here with his family from Nandan County, Hechi, to breed offspring. Therefore, the surname of Mai is the main name in Jiulong Village. Because there are two big banyan trees at the entrance of the village, the village is named "Lalong", which means "under the banyan tree" according to the local Zhuang pronunciation. Later, a "Dragon Fair" was set up in the southwest of the village as a trading market. It can be seen that Jialongtun was once prosperous.

According to reports, the Lugouqiao Incident broke out in 1937, and the villagers in Jiulong Village advanced wave after wave and fought bravely against Japan. Villager Mai Shufang, as a machine gunner, used only two machine gun bullets to defeat more than 100 enemies. Later, some villagers joined the Chinese Expeditionary Force and went to Burma to fight against Japan. After War of Resistance against Japanese Aggression’s victory, Mai Shufang returned to Lalong and often recalled the eventful years of the battlefield with the young people in the village.

In front of the battlefield, the hot-blooded men in Kowloon fought bloody battles for their country, and the people in the rear were not soft in the face of the enemy attack. In June 1945, the desperate Japanese army retreated to Liujiang after being defeated from Yishan and Qianjiang, and a large number of troops fled from Baizi ‘ao to Liuzhou along the main road (now the second road of Liuyong), and some fled to villages such as Zhaidong, Jiulong and Zhainan in Datang Town. After the Japanese army fled to Datang, they were eager to collect grain and found Mai Yunji, a bandit in Jiuwaitun. Although Mai Yunji was a bandit, he was in a national disaster and knew the national justice. After collecting the food, he moved to the village and tricked the Japanese army into sending troops to attack Mai Yunji in a hurry. Mai Yunji also counterattacked the Japanese army.

The "Zhaimen" in Jialongtun, Jiulong Village has still been preserved.

Because Jiulong Village is only two or three kilometers away from Baiziao, Ligao Town, Liujiang District, Liuzhou City, in order to drive the Japanese army to Baiziao in one fell swoop, the China army joined forces with the local armed forces, while the masses cooperated in the rear. "There was a villager who didn’t have time to escape, and he met the Japanese army. The two men wrestled together, but they ran away. Fortunately, no one was killed or injured." Mai Zenglu, deputy director of Jiulong Village Committee, said that under the pressure of our army and the assistance of local people, a large number of Japanese troops were almost wiped out in Baiziao. Therefore, Baiziao is also called "Devil’s Depression".

"Castle Peak is fortunate enough to bury loyal bones, so why they died with their boots on?" During the Anti-Japanese War, Kowloon people fought bravely and paid the price of blood. After the founding of New China, under the leadership of the Party, the people in Jiulong Village lived better and better, successfully got rid of the "poverty hat" and lived a happy life.

"Now, when the villagers are free, they will sing and dance under the banyan tree, and the cultural and sports activities will become more and more lively." Mai Xinju, secretary of the General Party Branch of Jiulong Village and director of the village committee, said that in the future, under the leadership of the party committee and government, Jiulong Village will vigorously develop characteristic industries, strive to break through the 500,000-yuan mark in the collective economic income of the village, and strive to build a beautiful Kowloon with civilized village style, simple folk customs and harmonious family style.

Air Force General Hospital: An Operation Story in "Off-year"

[Introduction to medical experts] Gu Jianwen, a famous neurosurgeon, is a high-level scientific and technological leader, doctoral tutor and brain surgeon in the whole army; Vice President of Air Force General Hospital; Director of the Chinese Medical Association, vice chairman of the PLA Neurosurgery Committee; Specializes in minimally invasive surgery for brain tumors. Treatment of cerebrovascular diseases, epilepsy, Parkinson’s disease and spinal diseases. Won the first prize of scientific and technological progress of the whole army in 2008 and many provincial and ministerial awards. More than 6,000 operations were completed.

[Author Brief Introduction] zhouyan, deputy chief physician of neurosurgery in Air Force General Hospital, is a doctor of medicine, and is good at treating spinal cord tumor, spinal diseases, meningioma, area spasm, trigeminal neuralgia and craniocervical junction malformation. The basic research of meningioma and microsurgical treatment of meningioma in the central area of skull base won the second prize of medical achievements of the whole army in 2007.

February 11, 2015 is a small year in the north. For Pony, a girl from Changchun, there is no joy today, only fear and anxiety. Her operation is scheduled for today. ……

25 years of "sensory separation"

From birth, she gave her parents the impression that she was particularly good. She didn’t cry when she was given an injection, and she didn’t make trouble when she bumped and wrestled. Although she was a girl, she always gave people the heroic spirit of a boy. I didn’t feel anything wrong myself. Until the 24-year-old that serious trauma, knee cruciate ligament rupture.

During the routine preoperative examination in the hospital, the doctor found that she was particularly insensitive to pain, but her sense of touch was normal. A serious problem was found in the next MRI. The pony has severe hydrops in the cervical spinal cord, which is what we call syringomyelia. And that’s not all. The cerebellar tonsil leaves its normal position and enters the cervical spinal canal, which further compresses the nerve tissue at the top of the cervical spinal canal. This is what we call "cerebellar tonsil hernia malformation", also known as Chiari malformation. To put it simply, this phenomenon of pony’s insensitivity to pain and normal touch is called "sensory separation", which is a typical symptom of syringomyelia.

For ponies that have grown for 25 years, this phenomenon does not affect their work and life. Should it be cured? My parents and newly married husband traveled to many big hospitals in Changchun and Beijing, and consulted many famous experts in detail. They learned that if they are not treated, they may continue to develop their illness, which may eventually lead to muscle atrophy and difficulty in walking, making it difficult to take care of themselves, let alone work.

Gu Jianwen, an expert in neurosurgery and vice president of the Air Force General Hospital, said: This is a congenital disease, which is caused by the abnormal development of the brain structure in the midline of the posterior cranial fossa during the embryonic period, the cerebellar tonsil extending downward, or protruding into the cervical spinal canal with the lower part of the medulla oblongata or even the IV ventricle through the foramen magnum. Syringomyelia is a chronic and progressive lesion of the spinal cord. The etiology is not very clear, and its pathological features are the formation of tubular cavities in the spinal cord (mainly gray matter) and the proliferation of glia (non-nerve cells). It often occurs in the cervical spinal cord. Obviously, it needs treatment, but,

Who will treat pony’s illness?

Who will treat the patient? For a family with an only daughter, the choice is difficult, and there is no choice to regret. Repeated comparisons, recommended by relatives and friends, after a year, I finally came to the Air Force General Hospital and found Professor Gu Jianwen, a neurosurgeon.

No matter how big the experts are, they have grown up through hardships. Faced with this case, Professor Gu Jianwen believes that the treatment is very difficult. Firstly, the stability of atlantoaxial joint needs to be evaluated in detail; Secondly, whether there is causal relationship between cerebellar tonsillar hernia and syringomyelia; Finally, how can we solve all the problems at once, so that patients can benefit greatly and suffer less. In fact, until now, these problems are still international problems. Professor Gu Jianwen decided that no matter how big the risk is, as long as there is a glimmer of hope, he will never give up. The operation must be done.

As the treating doctor of Pony, I made detailed preparations for the operation she will undergo. Arrange for her to take X-ray examination of cervical hyperextension and hyperflexion to understand the stability of atlantoaxial joint; Three-dimensional CT reconstruction of craniocervical junction was carried out to further understand the stability and observe whether there are other developmental malformations. Dr. Yu Panfeng from the Orthopedic Spinal Group was also invited to evaluate. Through evaluation, it is considered that the operation does not affect the stability of cervical spine.

Professor Gu Jianwen led us to determine the surgical plan: posterior cranial fossa enlargement+reconstruction of occipital cistern+partial cerebellar tonsillectomy+syringomyelia shunt. Four types of operations are completed at the same time, and the difficulty can be imagined.

go deep into the mountains, knowing well that there are tigers there—go on undeterred by the dangers ahead

On the day of the northern off-year, the operation began at 9: 30 am.

1. Release physical space

The first operation: the narrow posterior cranial fossa and vertebral bone were opened with rongeur, which opened the confined physical space.

2. Remove the "appendix" in the brain

The second operation: after opening the dura mater, we can see that the cerebellar tonsil herniates into the lower edge of the foramen magnum, tightly squeezing the very, very important nerve tissue. And this part of the tissue has become the "appendix" of the brain, completely useless tissue. The operation successfully removed some useless cerebellar tonsil tissue and retracted it to the normal position (foramen magnum). This is only the first step. Next, we should explore the outlet of the fourth ventricle and the opening of the central spinal canal, because this may also be the cause of syringomyelia. Exploration found that, as expected … These two openings were tightly locked by the thickened arachnoid membrane. The next step is to carefully separate and open up water channels.

3. Break through the stagnant spinal cord "dammed lake"

The third operation: exploration found that the most bulging position of the spinal cord started from the third cervical plane. The surface of the spinal cord, which used to have beautiful wrinkles, has been swollen and smooth by stagnant water. Sometimes, smoothness is not necessarily a good thing. Just as a dammed lake is a lake formed by blocking a valley or river bed and storing water by landslides caused by earthquake activities. There are four processes in the formation of the dammed lake: one is the original water system; Second, the original water system was blocked by plugs. Third, after the river valley and river bed are blocked, the flowing water gathers and overflows around. Fourth, the dammed lake will be formed when the water is stored to a certain extent. Once the dammed lake breaks, it will form a flood peak downstream, and improper disposal will lead to major disasters. Similarly, after the spinal cord is filled with water, the function of the spinal cord is gradually lost. The operation is to get through the "barrier lake" of this spinal cord.

Cutting the back of the spinal cord and placing the shunt tube is an extremely delicate and gentle job, because this position is too important, and the result of any slight difference may be disastrous. The length of the incision is only 2-3mm, and the shunt tube is as soft as hair. Moreover, there is a heavy procedure. Because this patient’s syringomyelia is not a whole, but divided into several compartments, this important operation is to use a shunt as thin as a hair to get through the compartments. This is more and more like the plot of a martial arts novel, but it is actually the case.

4. Put a big bed on the spinal cord.

The fourth operation: reconstruction of cisterna magna. The artificial dura mater is used to enlarge the cisterna magna to further reduce the pressure and provide a safer and more effective buffer zone. Let the spinal cord no longer sleep in a small bed. Instead, the external cavity of the spinal cord is enlarged, and a "Simmons" big bed is rebuilt, so that the spinal cord can sleep in the big bed this life.

The operation lasted 2 hours. After the pony recovered from anesthesia, she felt more sensitive pain in her hands. I believe that with the extension of time, the surgical effect will get better and better.

According to the custom, on the day of off-year, the Kitchen God will tell the Jade Emperor about a family’s good and evil, and return on New Year’s Eve with orders to reward the good and punish the evil, or to bless or reduce the disaster. In reality, I have never seen the characters in these customs, but as a doctor, at this moment, I suddenly feel that the wish for the well-being of patients is to repay the blessings. I sincerely hope Pony can recover smoothly and go home for the New Year.

The malformation of cerebellar tonsil hernia, also known as Chiari malformation, is a congenital developmental abnormality that the cerebellar tonsil extends downward or protrudes into the cervical spinal canal with the inferior medulla oblongata or even the IV ventricle through the foramen magnum due to the abnormal development of the brain structure at the midline of the posterior cranial fossa during the embryonic period.

1, the medulla oblongata and upper compression can appear hemiparalysis or quadriplegia, tendon hyperreflexia and other pyramidal signs, sensory disorders, urinary and defecation disorders and dyspnea; Cerebral nerve involvement can include facial numbness, diplopia, tinnitus, hearing impairment, dysarthria and dysphagia, cervical nerve root symptoms such as pain in the lower occipital region, cerebellar symptoms such as nystagmus and gait irregularity;

2. There may be symptoms of increased intracranial pressure such as headache and papilla edema;

3. The brain stem and upper cervical segment are compressed and flattened, and the surrounding arachnoid adhesion and thickening can form cysts; The medulla oblongata and cervical spinal cord can be affected by compression ischemia and cerebrospinal fluid pressure, resulting in secondary syringomyelia and corresponding symptoms.
