Objective To summarize the characteristics and management of pregnancy complicated with aortic dissection, and to explore the reasonable diagnosis and treatment plan. Methods The clinical data of 10 patients of pregnancy complicated with aortic dissection in Wuhan Tongji Hospital from January 2011 to June 2017 were collected. Their age was 25.2 (21-29) years. Results In the 10 patients, the majority (8 patients) were primipara, and most of them were in the late stages of pregnancy (5 patients) and puerperal (4 patients). Among them, 1 patient had gestational hypertension, and the blood pressure of the left and right upper extremities was significantly abnormal (initial blood pressure: left upper limb blood pressure: 90/60 mm Hg, right upper limb blood pressure: 150/90 mm Hg). The major clinical manifestations were severe chest and back pain which happened suddenly, with D-dimmer and C-creative protein increased which may be associated with inflammatory reaction. All patients were diagnosed by thoracoabdominal aortic CTA, including 5 patients of Stanford type A dissection and 5 patients of Stanford type B dissection. In the 10 patients, 1 patient refused surgery and eventually died of aortic rupture with the death of fetus before birth. And the remaining 9 patients underwent surgical treatment, 3 patients of endovascular graft exclusion for thoracic aortic stent graft, 2 patients underwent Bentall operation, 1 patient with Bentall + total aortic arch replacement + vascular thoracic aortic stent graft, 1 patient with Bentall operation combined with endovascular graft exclusion for thoracic aortic stent graft, 1 patient with Bentall + coronary artery bypass grafting, 1 patient of thoracoabdominal aortic vascular replacement. Among them, 1 patient underwent endovascular graft exclusion for thoracic aortic stent graft died of severe postoperative infection, and the remaining 8 patients were discharged from hospital. Nine patients were single birth, among them 5 newborn patients had severe asphyxia, 4 patients had mild asphyxia. Finally, 3 neonates died of severe complications, and the remaining 6 survived. Conclusion The ratio of pregnancy with Stanford type A aortic dissection is far higher than in the general population, the possibility of fetal intrauterine asphyxia is larger, but through active and effective surgical and perioperative treatment, we can effectively save the life of mother and fetus.
Surgery is still the main treatment for congenital polydactyly, and the aim of surgical reconstruction is to obtain a thumb with excellent function and appearance. A systematic assessment of polydactyly is required prior to surgery, including bone stress lines, joint deviation, joint activity and joint instability, size and development of finger and nail. Bone shape, joint incongruency, and abnormal tendon insertions must be corrected completely, in order to obtain good function and to avoide secondary surgery. Bilhault-Cloquet procedure can reconstruct the size of the finger and nails. Fine manipulation can improve the postoperative nail deformity, so that the reconstructed nail reaches a satisfactory aesthetic score.

Thoracolumbar fractures are common injuries. Accurate diagnosis and classification are of great significance for guiding treatment. Although there are many classification systems, they have not been universally accepted and used to guide clinical practice. Denis classification, load sharing classification, Magerl/AO classification, and Thoracolumbar Injury Classification and Severity Score have a great clinical influence, but they also have some shortcomings. Recently, some new classifications of thoracolumbar fractures have been proposed, and some of them have been updated and revised, which makes it easy to cause confusion, and puts forward new requirements on how to grasp and apply these classification systems. This article reviews the main and commonly used classification systems of thoracolumbar fractures, discusses the main viewpoints, advantages and disadvantages of each classification system, and looks ahead to the future research direction.
Objective To analyze the correlation between postoperative complications and combined deflection angle classification adduction type (CDAC-ADT) of femoral neck fractures after cannulated screw internal fixation. MethodsThe clinical data of 121 patients with CDAC-ADT femoral neck fracture admitted between January 2018 and December 2021 and met the selected criteria were retrospectively analyzed. There were 69 males and 52 females, the age ranged from 19 to 79 years (mean, 48.1 years). The causes of injury included 52 cases of traffic accident, 24 cases of falling from height, and 45 cases of fall. The time from injury to operation ranged from 2 to 12 days, with an average of 6.0 days. Among them, there were 18 cases of CDAC-ADT type Ⅰ, 46 cases of type Ⅱ, and 57 cases of type Ⅲ; 6 cases of Garden type Ⅱ, 103 cases of type Ⅲ, and 12 cases of type Ⅳ; and according to the location of the fracture line, there were 26 cases of subcapitate type, 88 cases of transcervical type, and 7 cases of basal type. All patients were treated with cannulated screw internal fixation. The occurrence of complications (including internal fixation failure, fracture nonunion, and osteonecrosis of the femoral head) was recorded, and the correlation between complications and CDAC-ADT typing, Garden typing, and fracture line location were analyzed. Results The patients were followed up 8-44 months, with a mean of 24.9 months. There were 10 cases of internal fixation failure, 7 cases of fracture nonunion, and 30 cases of osteonecrosis of the femoral head after operation. Correlation analysis showed that patients’ CDAC-ADT typing was significantly correlated with the overall incidence of complication and the incidence of internal fixation failure, fracture nonunion, and osteonecrosis of the femoral head (P<0.05), and the Pearson coefficient of contingency were 0.435, 0.251, 0.254, and 0.241, respectively. Garden typing did not correlate with the overall incidence of complication and the incidence of internal fixation failure and fracture nonunion (P>0.05), but correlated with the incidence of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (P<0.05), and the Pearson coefficient of contingency was 0.251. Fracture line position typing had no correlation with the overall incidence of complication and the incidence of internal fixation failure, fracture nonunion, and osteonecrosis of the femoral head (P>0.05). Conclusion CDAC-ADT typing has obvious correlation with postoperative complications of femoral neck fracture and can be used to predict complications of femoral neck fracture.
Objective To investigate the risk factors, clinical features and outcomes of patients with large hemispheric infarction (LHI), and explore the association between TOAST classification and LHI. Methods We prospectively registered consecutive cases of acute ischemic stroke at the neurological wards of West China Hospital, Sichuan University from January 1st 2010 to February 29th 2012. We collected the demographic data, risk factors, and other related data, assessed the National Institutes of Health Stroke Scale (NIHSS) and Glasgow Coma Scale (GCS) scores at admission, and followed-up the Modified Rankin Scale (mRS) scores at the third month from the onset. In different TOAST classifications, univariate analysis and multivariate analysis were used to find predictors for the occurrence and prognosis of LHI. Results Of the enrolled 1 729 patients with acute ischemic stroke, 317 (18.3%) had LHI. The multivariate analysis showed that male, hypertension and onset to admission time were the independent predictive factors for the large-artery atherosclerosis type LHI (P<0.05); atrial fibrillation and valvulopathy were the independent predictive factors for cardioembolism type LHI (P<0.05). Meanwhile, age, hypertension, onset to admission time, and NIHSS and GCS scores at admission were the independent predictive factors for death/disability (mRS>3) within three months (P<0.05). Conclusions Hypertension, gender, onset to admission time, atrial fibrillation, and valvulopathy are independently associated with the occurrence of LHI. Young patients with lower GCS, higher NIHSS scores and no hypertension are more likely to have a better prognosis after LHI.
