This article report 5 cases of malunion or nonunion ofthe fractures of the jaws which were treated by functional re-duction. From the anatomical and physiological point ofview, this operation was highly versatile and reliable. The re-construction was accomplished precisely in one stage. All pa-tients had a good prognosis.
Objective To study diagnosis, treatment and rebuilding of scrotum gangrene. Methods From January 1992 to September 2004, 15 patients with scrotum gangrene were treated and their clinical data were analysed.Their ages ranged from 23 to80 years. The results of bacterial culture were positive for wound sample in 14 cases and for blood in 1 case. All the patients underwent surgical treatment including incision,aggressive debridement,drainage,irrigation and antibiotic therapy. Two patients accepted hyperbaric oxygen therapy. All the patients received scrotum rebuilding by transfer of skin flap, skin grafting and suturation and orchectomy was given in 2 elder patients. Results All the patients received healing by first intention after 21 to 34 days.There was no death. Aftera follow-up of 1 to 3 years, the appearance of scotum was satisfactory and no orchiatrophy occurred. Thirteen patients with testicles had normal sexual function. Conclusion After a definite diagnosis,early aggressive debridement,broad-spectrum antibiotics and sufficient local drainage should be used. If available,hyperbaric oxygen therapy may be used to promote healing of tissue wound. Scrotum should be rebuilt based on different conditions.
摘要:目的: 评估手术、栓塞及γ刀综合治疗脑动静脉畸形的疗效。 方法 :回顾性分析了我科自2002年3月至2009年7月期间综合治疗的43例脑AVM患者,分析评估这43例脑AVM的临床特点及治疗效果,随访患者并对其进行GOS评分。 结果 :本组病例采取栓塞＋手术治疗3例、栓塞＋γ刀治疗26例、手术＋γ刀治疗11例、栓塞+手术＋γ刀治疗3例。术后随访28例,随访时间4月至7年6月,GOS评分5分者25例,患者均能重新回到工作或学校;GOS评分4分者2例,患者生活能够自理;GOS评分1分者1例,患者死亡。 结论 :对大型、功能区、有深部静脉引流的脑AVM综合治疗有一定的优越性,它不仅使脑AVM治愈率明显提高,而且与治疗相关的各种并发症和病死率也明显降低。Abstract: Objective: To evaluate the efficacy of multimodality treatment of cerebral arteriovenous malformations(AVMs) with surgery, embolization and γknife radiation. Methods : A retrospective analysis of 43 cases of cerebral AVMs applied with multimodality treatment in our department From March 2002 to July 2009 has been made, meanwhile we have analyzed and assessed the clinical characteristics and treatment outcome of these 43 patients with cerebral AVMs. Results : Patients received multimodality treatment with embolization followed by surgery(n=3), embolization followed by γknife radiation(n=26), surgery followed by γknife radiation(n=11), or embolization, surgery, and γknife radiation(n=3). Postoperative followup of 28 cases, the followup time is 4 months to 7 years and 6 months. GOS score 5 in 25 cases, who can be able to return to work or school. GOS score 4 in 2 cases, who can be able to live independently. GOS score 1 in 1 case, who is dead. Conclusion : In the cerebral AVMs which are large, or located within or immediately adjacent to eloquent regions of the brain, or have deep venous drainage, multimodality treatment has some superiority. It can not only improve the cure rate of cerebral AVMs significantly, but also reduce the treatmentrelated complications and mortality.
The simple ablation of the duplicated thumb might have some residual deformities after operation that often leads to functional disorders of the hand. Since 1988, the postoperative disorders in 9 patients were treated. The plastic surgery was performed for the adduction of the thumb, lateral deviation and insufficient after plastic repair of the hand. The configuration and the function of the thumb were satisfactory.
ObjectiveTo give an annual data report of surgical treatment of esophageal cancer in Shanghai Chest Hospital to provide reference for treatment and research on esophageal cancer.MethodsThe clinical data of 414 patients with esophageal cancer who underwent endoscopy (9 patients) and esophagectomy (405 patients) in Shanghai Chest Hospital in 2015 were reviewed, including 334 males and 80 females. Their tumor biological characteristics and short-term and long-term treatment results were analyzed.ResultsPatients in this group were predominantly aged 60 to 69 years (46.9%), and the tumor was mainly located in the middle thorax (50.7%). About 79.9% of the patients received trans-right thoracic esophagectomy, 44.4% received minimally invasive surgery; 388 (93.7%) patients accepted upfront esophagectomy without induction therapy, and 179 (43.2%) patients received postoperative adjuvant therapy. The R0 resection rate was 90.6%, and the 30- and 90-day mortality rates were 1.4% and 2.4%, respectively. The 4-year overall survival rate of the R0 resection patients was 65.7%.ConclusionSatisfactory long-term survival results can be obtained for thoracic esophageal cancer if R0 resection can be achieved by trans-right thoracic esophagectomy and extended lymphadenectomy combined with appropriate postoperative adjuvant treatment.
