Objective To summarize the research progress of surgical treatment for anterior shoulder dislocation and combined injuries. Methods The related literature was reviewed, and the surgical treatment options for the anterior shoulder dislocation and its combined injuries were summarized. Results Anterior shoulder dislocation can combine with anteroinferior capsular ligament complex injury (Bankart injury), bony Bankart defect, and Hill-Sachs lesion. For Bankart and bony Bankart injuries, arthroscopic repair or coracoid osteotomy combined with bony graft reconstruction can be performed. For Hill-Sachs lesion, conservative treatment, soft tissue repair, or bony reconstruction should be selected based on the extent of the bone defect. For bipolar injury, the Bankart repair, Remplissage, or arthroplasty should be selected based on the extent of the glenoid defect. Conclusion With the development of arthroscopy and the improvement of the surgical concept, there is a complete set of surgical options for various injuries of the anterior shoulder dislocation. When choosing a surgical procedure, the patient’s specific injury and age, exercise level, and other relating factors should be comprehensively assessed in order to achieve the best results.
Abstract: Objective To summarize the experiences and analyze the efficacy of mitral valvuloplasty in treating anterior leaflet prolapse. Methods A total of 152 consecutive nonrheumatic heart disease patients including 96 males and 56 females with anterior leaflet prolapse who underwent mitral valvuloplasty from February 1997 to March 2007 were analyzed retrospectively. The age of these patients ranged from 10 to 73 years old (38.54±17.22 years). There were 119 cases of mitral degenerative prolapse or chordae rupture, 24 of ongenital heart disease, 3 of ischemic mitral insufficiency, and 6 of native valve endocarditis. Echocardiography before operation showed the degree of mitral regurgitation was severe in 19, moderate to severe in 63, and moderate in 70 patients. Among the patients, 87 had anterior prolapse and 65 had bilateral prolapse. All patients underwent mitral valve repair under standard cardiopulmonary bypass. Results During the operation, transesophageal echocardiography and saline injection test showed satisfying results in all the patients. No early death occurred after operation. Followup was done to 135 patients for 3 months to 8.5 years with a followup rate of 88.82%. During the follow up, 93 patients were in New Yoke Heart Association(NYHA)class Ⅰ, 35 in Class Ⅱ, 3 in class Ⅲ and 4 in class Ⅳ. The Echocardiography showed that postoperative left atrium diameter (41.09±10.40 mm vs. 45.32±10.07 mm, t=4.186, P=0.000) and left ventricular enddiastolic dimension (52.04±7.74 mm vs. 60.70±7.72 mm,t=9.676, P=0.000) were significantly smaller than that before operation. No or trace mitral regurgitation (MR) was found in 36 patients, mild MR in 45 patients, mild to moderate MR in 38 patients, moderate MR in 9 patients, and moderate to severe MR in 7 patients. Mitral valve replacement was performed in 5 patients after valvuloplasty. Three died during the follow-up. Two of them died of heart failure and one of unknown cause. Conclusion In spite of the complexity, the longterm results of mitral valve repair for anterior leaflet prolapse are satisfactory if the best surgery method is chosen.
OBJECTIVE: To discuss the value of anterior operation in fracture-dislocation of connect of cervical vertebrae and thoracic vertebrae. METHODS: From 1997, 21 patients with fracture-dislocation of connect of cervical vertebra and thoracic vertebrae were operated on. The interval between injury and operation was within 24 hours in 4 cases, 2-7 days in 9 cases, 8-14 days in 3 cases and within 4 weeks in 5 cases. The locations were C6,7 in 7 cases, C7 in 9 cases and T1 in 5 cases. The nerves function of spinal of all the cases have different degrees of injury. Classification of Frankel were the following: 3 cases of grade A, 6 cases of grade B, 9 cases of grade C, and 3 cases of grade D. The operative procedure included the following: anterior operation of cervical vertebrae; incision of most fracture vertebral body to decompress; transplantation of ilium bone grafting fusion; and internal fixation of anterior cervical vertebrae with locking-steel. RESULTS: In 21 patients, 1 died of accompanying by pulmonary infection; 20 were followed up 8 months to 3 years with an average of 21 months. All transplanted ilium had fused. The nerve function of spinal cord had recovered in different degrees(2 cases of grade A, 1 case of grade C, 9 cases of grade D and 8 cases of grade E); the turn of vertebral column was normal. No internal fixation failed. CONCLUSION: Anterior operation is a better way to treat fracture-dislocation of connect of cervical vertebrae and thoracic vertebrae with easy operation, less complications, satisfactory reduction of fracture and good stability.
ObjectiveTo study the risk factors affecting anterior resection syndrome of rectal cancer. MethodsSixty-seven patients with low rectal cancer who performed anus preserving operation in Second Artillery General Hospital from August 2013 to October 2014 were screened out based on inclusion and exclusion criteria. Forty-two cases received low anterior resection (LAR), 25 cases received intersphincter resection (ISR). Patients were followed-up for 1 year. The severity of anterior resection syndrome was evaluated by using score system for anterior resection syndrome. The patients' age, gender, body mass index (BMI), TNM stage, surgical mode, surgical approach, anastomotic height, prophylactic colostomy, adjuvant chemotherapy, and radiotherapy were used as research indicators, and to evaluate the impact to anterior resection syndrome. ResultsThe single factor analysis showed that the surgical mode, preventive stoma, radiotherapy, anastomotic height, and age were related to the severity of anterior resection syndrome (P < 0.05). Logistic regression showed that the surgical mode (OR=4.506, 95% CI: 1.220, 16.640, P=0.024) and radiotherapy (OR=14. 688, 95% CI: 3.200, 67.429, P=0.001) were related to the severity of anterior resection syndrome. ConclusionSurgical mode and radiotherapy are the independent risk factors of anterior resection syndrome.
Objective To explore the research progress of the coracoid transfer surgery using suture button fixation, particularly focusing on the technique known as Chinese unique Inlay Bristow (Cuistow surgery).MethodsExtensive literature review was conducted to summarize and analyze the utilization of suture button fixation in the Cuistow surgery, comparing its biomechanical and clinical outcomes with those of traditional screw fixation.Results Utilizing suture button fixation in coracoid transfer surgery helps circumvent certain metal-related complications associated with traditional screw fixation. While its biomechanical stability and effectiveness have been preliminarily confirmed, debates persist regarding its graft healing rate and postoperative recurrence rate compared to traditional screw fixation. The Cuistow surgery based on the Inlay structure is a solution to improve the healing rate of graft after suture button fixation. Conclusion Suture button fixation, as a novel approach in coracoid transfer surgery, remains to have its advantages and disadvantages compared to traditional screw fixation not entirely elucidated, underscoring the need for further in-depth clinical and fundamental research. Cuistow surgery is the Chinese experience of coracoid transfer surgery, and its biomechanical stability and clinical advantages have been preliminarily confirmed.
【摘要】 患者為老年男性,反復出現惡心、嘔吐、乏力、低鈉、低鉀血癥, 3次住院。對其惡心嘔吐原因,曾考慮是否有抗高血壓藥物吲噠帕胺所引起,或是老年人攝入不足,電解質紊亂所致低鈉低鉀血癥。最后考慮該患者低鈉血癥系垂體前葉功能減退所致。MRI檢查顯示空蝶鞍。空鞍的原因尚不清楚,空鞍綜合征也是垂體前葉功能減退的因素之一。此癥盡管很少見,但隨著CT、MRI這些高新設備的普遍使用及人口老齡化,會發現更多的病例,也對我們診斷治療提供了有力的依據。【Abstract】The patient’s condition: old male patient with repeat nausea, vomitus, hypodynamia, low sodium and kaliopenia. Three times to be in hospital. First, we consider that indapamide resuted low sodium and Kaliopemia,but we discovered that the anterior pituitay gland hypofunction. MRI show that empty sella turcica. The reason of empty is not clear,the saddle syndrome is also a factor of pituitary function before the leaves falling off. The disease was rare,but with common use of CT,MRI and aging,we will discover many more cases to provide power evidence for diagnosis and treatment.
ObjectiveTo investigate the risk factors of contralateral anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injury after primary ACL reconstruction. Methods A retrospective review was conducted on the 716 patients with ACL injury who received primary ACL reconstruction surgery and met the selection criteria between January 2012 and September 2018. After a mean follow-up period of 7.6 years (range, 4-10 years), 65 patients (9.1%) experienced contralateral ACL injury (injured group) and 651 patients (90.9%) did not (uninjured group). There was no significant difference in age, body mass index, and preoperative Lachman test degree between groups (P>0.05). However, the proportion of female in the injured group was significantly higher than that of male (P<0.05), and the preoperative posterior tibial slope (PTS) was significantly higher than that of the uninjured group (P<0.05). Using the outcome of contralateral ACL injury as the dependent variable, the clinical data of the patient was first used as the independent variable, and univariate COX regression was used to analyze the prognostic influencing factors. Then, the indicators with differences in univariate COX regression were used as the independent variable, and multivariate COX regression was used to analyze the independent risk factors affecting prognosis. Log-Rank (Mantel-Cox) test was used to test and analyze the occurrence time of contralateral ACL injury in patients of different genders; X-tile software was used to analyze the occurrence time of contralateral ACL injury in patients with different PTS using Log-Rank (Mantel-Cox) test and PTS cut-off values. ResultsUnivariate COX regression analysis showed that gender and PTS were influence factors for contralateral ACL injury (P<0.05); further multivariate COX regression analysis showed that female and increased PTS were independent risk factors for contralateral ACL injury (P<0.05). The Log-Rank (Mantel-Cox) test results showed that the contralateral ACL injury occurred in female at 8.853 (8.600, 9.106) years, which was significantly shorter than that in male [9.661 (9.503, 9.819) years] (χ2=20.323, P<0.001). Using X-tile software to analyze the cut-off value of PTS, it was found that the cut-off value of PTS for contralateral ACL injury was 10.92°. According to the Log-Rank (Mantel-Cox) test, it was found that the contralateral ACL injury occurred in 5.762 (4.981, 6.543) years in patients with PTS≥10.92°, which was significantly shorter than patients with PTS<10.92° [9.751 (9.650, 9.853) years](χ2=302.479, P<0.001). ConclusionFemale and PTS≥10.92° after primary ACL reconstruction are independent risk factors for contralateral ACL injury.
ObjectiveTo review the bioactive strategies that enhance tendon graft healing after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (ACLR), and to provide insights for improving the therapeutic outcomes of ACLR. Methods The domestic and foreign literature related to the bioactive strategies for promoting the healing of tendon grafts after ACLR was extensively reviewed and summarized. ResultsAt present, there are several kinds of bioactive materials related to tendon graft healing after ACLR: growth factors, cells, biodegradable implants/tissue derivatives. By constructing a complex interface simulating the matrix, environment, and regulatory factors required for the growth of native anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), the growth of transplanted tendons is regulated at different levels, thus promoting the healing of tendon grafts. Although the effectiveness of ACLR has been significantly improved in most studies, most of them are still limited to the early stage of animal experiments, and there is still a long way to go from the real clinical promotion. In addition, limited by the current preparation technology, the bionics of the interface still stays at the micron and millimeter level, and tends to be morphological bionics, and the research on the signal mechanism pathway is still insufficient.ConclusionWith the further study of ACL anatomy, development, and the improvement of preparation technology, the research of bioactive strategies to promote the healing of tendon grafts after ACLR is expected to be further promoted.
ObjectiveTo investigate the application and technical essentials of computer-assisted navigation in the surgical management of periacetabular fractures and pelvic fractures. MethodsBetween May 2010 and May 2011, 39 patients with periacetabular or anterior and posterior pelvic ring fractures were treated by minimally invasive fixation under computer-assisted navigation and were followed up more than 2 years, and the clinical data were analyzed retrospectively. There were 21 males and 18 females, aged 15-64 years (mean, 36 years). Fractures were caused by traffic accident in 23 cases, crush injury in 6 cases, and falling from height in 10 cases. Of them, 6 cases had acetabular fractures; 6 cases had femoral neck fractures; 18 cases had dislocation of sacroiliac joint; and 15 cases had anterior pelvic ring injuries. All patients were treated with closed or limited open reduction and screw fixations assisted with navigation. ResultsEighty-nine screws were inserted during operation, including 8 in the acetabulum, 18 in the neck of the femur, 33 in the sacroiliac joint, and 30 in the symphysis pubis and pubic rami. The mean time of screw implanted was 20 minutes (range, 11-38 minutes), and the average blood loss volume was 20 mL (range, 10-50 mL). The postoperative pelvic X-ray and three dimensional CT scan showed good reduction of fractures and good position of the screws. No incision infection, neurovascular injury, or implant failure occurred. All patients were followed up 27-33 months with an average of 29.6 months. The patients could walk with full weight loading at 6-12 weeks after operation (mean, 8 weeks); at last follow-up, the patients could walk on the flat ground, stand with one leg, and squat down, and they recovered well enough to do their job and to live a normal life. ConclusionMinimally invasive fixation under computer-assisted navigation may be an excellent method to treat some specific types of periacetabular and anterior and posterior pelvic ring fractures because it has the advantages of less trauma and blood loss, lower complication incidence, and faster recovery.
The shoulder joint is the most prone to dislocation in the whole body, and more than 95% of them are anterior dislocation. Improper treatment after the initial dislocation is easy to lead to recurrent anterior dislocation or anterior shoulder instability, and the outcomes following conservative treatment is poor. Anterior shoulder instability can damage the soft tissue structure and bone structure that maintain the stability of shoulder joint, among which bone structure is the most important factor affecting the stability of shoulder joint. Diagnosis should be combined with medical history, physical examination, and auxiliary examination. Currently, three-dimensional CT is the most commonly used auxiliary examination means. However, various bone defect measurement and preoperative evaluation methods based on three-dimensional CT and the glenoid track theory have their own advantages and disadvantages, and there is still a lack of gold standard. Currently, the mainstream treatment methods mainly include Bankart procedure, coracoid process transposition, glenoid reconstruction with free bone graft, Bankart combined with Remplissage procedure, and subscapular tendon binding tamponade, etc. Each of these procedures has its own advantages and disadvantages. For the diagnosis and treatment of anterior shoulder instability, there are still too many unknown, further research and exploration need to be studied.
