This article reviews the development and progress in the field of limb salvage treatment, surgical techniques, and function reconstruction of pelvic malignant tumors in China in the past 30 years. Based on the surgical classification of pelvic tumor resection in different parts, the development of surgical techniques and bone defect repair and reconstruction methods were described in detail. In recent years, in view of the worldwide problem of biological reconstruction after pelvic tumor resection, Chinese researchers have systematically proposed the repair and reconstruction methods and prosthesis design for bone defects after resection of different parts for the first time in the world. In addition, a systematic surgical classification (Beijing classification) was first proposed for the difficult situation of pelvic tumors involving the sacrum, as well as the corresponding surgical plan and repair and reconstruction methods. Through unremitting efforts, the limb salvage rate of pelvic malignant tumors in China has reached more than 80%, which has preserved limbs and restored walking function for the majority of patients, greatly reduced surgical complications, and achieved internationally remarkable results.
【 Abstract 】 Objective To explore the effect of gamma-globulin in evaluating hepatic functional reservation in patients with liver tumor. Methods Serum protein electrophoresis (SPE) was performed on 30 patients with liver tumor to get gamma-globulin and preoperative Child-Pugh classification. Then the relations between gamma-globulin and preoperative and postoperative Child-Pugh classification were studied. While with gamma-globulin as evaluating standard, the validity compared with Child-Pugh classification were studied. Results The gamma-globulin was lower in classification A patients 〔（ 21.053 3 ± 6.001 4)% 〕 than that in classification B 〔 (28.800 0 ± 8.672 5)% 〕 before operation. While the gamma-globulin 〔 (21.022 0 ± 5.354 6)% 〕 of classification A patients after operation was also lower than that of classification B/C 〔 (29.556 0 ± 7.698 5)% 〕 . These differences were significant (P ＜ 0.05). With gamma-globulin gt;30% as evaluating standard ， the sensitivity and specificity were 80.00% and 96.00%, respectively. Conclusion Gamma-globulin can reflect hepatic functional reservation in patients with liver tumor. Combining gamma-globulin and Child-Pugh classification can evaluate hepatic functional reservation more objectively.
Objective To evaluate proton MR spectroscopy (1H-MRS) for detection of the motor cortex and adjacent brain in amyotrophic lateralsclerosis (ALS) patients with apparent upper motor neuron involvement after olfactory ensheathing cells(OECs) transplantation. Methods From December 2004 to February 2005, 7 patients with clinically definite ALS who could safely undergo MRS were admitted into the perspective study. The neurological status, ALS functional rating scale (ALSFRS), EMG, and 1H-MRS taken before and 2 weeks after operationswere carefully analyzed. The NAA/Cr and Cho/Cr ratios were measured in the cerebral peduncle,genu and posterior limb of the internal capsule, corona radiata and precentral gyrus. Results The ALSFRS in 2 cases mproved obviously whose ALSFRS increased from 30 to 33 and from 29 to 34 respectively. And 5 cases remained stable 2 weeks after OECs transplantation. Statistical analyses for all seven cases showed both theNAA/Cr and Cho/Cr ratios decreased, but in the two cases with ALSFRS improvement the NAA/Cr increased in the certain anatomic position which confirmed the neurological and EMG findings. Conclusion The proton MR spectroscopy is a suitablenoninvasive measure for ALS evaluation. The preliminary study suggests that twoof the seven ALS cases improved apparently shortterm after OECs transplantation. More patients are required for the clinical study and longer followup duration is needed for future research.
With the rapid development of day surgery mode in China, day surgery management has shifted from extensive to refined, but there are still many problems in the information system of day surgery in Chinese hospitals. The Second Affiliated Hospital Zhejiang University School of Medicine has developed a day surgery information management system since 2018, established a pre-hospital and in-hospital day surgery ecological management, and integrated daily management concepts and management rules into the system through the whole-process information management. It realized the whole process, full data, closed-loop and path-based information management of day surgery. This paper introduces the day surgery information management system of the Second Affiliated Hospital Zhejiang University School of Medicine, and aims to share the experience of building the day surgery information management function module.
Objective To review the current status of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) techniques in the evaluation of hepatic fibrosis. Methods The application and recent advances of various kinds of MRI techniques in evaluating hepatic fibrosis were summarized by literature review. Results The state-of-the-art of MRI evaluating of hepatic fibrosis included common contrast-enhanced MRI, double contrast-enhanced MRI, and various functional MRI techniques. Common contrast-enhanced MRI could detect morphological changes of the liver, but little value in phasing. Double contrast-enhanced MRI markedly increased the contrast to noise ratio. Except diagnosis liver fibrosis, functional MRI also could phase it by its serverity. Conclusion MRI techniques, especially those functional MRI techniques, are advancing very fast and have very great potentiality in both the diagnosis and severity assessment of hepatic fibrosis.
Objective To explore the impact of gender difference in 90-day outcomes after mechanical thrombectomy for acute cerebral infarction. Methods A prospective registration, observational, and retrospective analysis study was carried out. Patients with acute cerebral infarction who were admitted to the Department of Neurology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Chengdu Medical College and the Department of Neurology of Nanjing First Hospital between June 2015 and June 2019 were collected. Patients were divided into two groups based on gender. The detailed demographic, laboratory examination, imaging examination and clinical data were collected. Then, the data were analyzed using univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses. Results A total of 298 patients were included. Among them, there were 185 males and 113 females. The differences in age, smoking, atrial fibrillation, using antiplatelet drugs before stroke, TOAST classification, and involved cerebrovascular sites between the two groups were statistically significant (P<0.05), and there was no statistically significant difference in other baseline data between the two groups (P>0.05). The results of univariate logistic regression analysis showed that the rate of 90-day favourable outcome of female patients was lower than that of male patients [odds ratio (OR)=0.462, 95% confidence interval (CI) (0.275, 0.775), P=0.030]. The results of multivariate logistic regression analysis showed that, after adjusting for confounding factors, there was no independent correlation between gender and the 90-day favourable outcome of patients with acute cerebral infarction who underwent mechanical thrombectomy [OR=1.511, 95% CI (0.745, 3.066), P=0.253]. Conclusion The gender has no significant effect on the 90-day favourable outcome of acute cerebral infarction patients treated with mechanical thrombectomy.
New functional evaluation methods for coronary artery lesions have received widespread attention at home and abroad. As a new functional evaluation technique, the clinical value of quantitative flow ratio (QFR) in the accuracy and feasibility of diagnosing myocardial ischemia caused by coronary artery stenosis has been confirmed in many clinical trials. Compared with the traditional gold standard fractional flow reserve (FFR) for diagnosing coronary artery stenosis, QFR has the advantages of simple operation, time-saving and low cost. This article reviews the comparison of the diagnostic accuracy of FFR and QFR and the progress of clinical research, aiming to explore whether QFR may replace FFR as a functional evaluation method of coronary artery disease and guide clinical blood circulation reconstruction.
ObjectiveTo investigate the effectiveness of combined tissue transplantation for repair of serially damaged injuries on radial side of hand and function reconstruction. MethodsBetween May 2013 and May 2017, 34 cases of serially damaged injuries on radial side of hand were treated. There were 29 males and 5 females; aged 17-54 years, with an average of 32.1 years. There were 23 cases of crushing injuries, 5 cases of bruising injuries, 4 cases of machine strangulation injuries, and 2 cases of explosion injuries. The time from injury to admission was 40 minutes to 3 days, with an average of 10 hours. According to the self-determined serially damaged injuries classification standard, there were 1 case of typeⅠa, 2 cases of typeⅠb, 10 cases of typeⅡa, 5 cases of type Ⅱb, 3 cases of type Ⅱc, 1 case of type Ⅱd, 7 cases of type Ⅲa, 3 cases of type Ⅲb, 1 case of type Ⅲc, and 1 case of type Ⅲd. According to the classification results, the discarded finger, nail flap, the second toe, anterolateral thigh flap, ilium flap, fibula flap, and other tissue flaps were selected to repair hand wounds and reconstruct thumb, metacarpal bones, and fingers. ResultsAfter operation, 2 cases of flaps developed vascular crisis and survived after symptomatic treatment; the other transplanted tissue survived smoothly. All cases were followed up 1 to 7 years, with an average of 2.4 years. The average fracture healing time was 7.4 weeks (range, 5.3-9.0 weeks). At last follow-up, the reconstructed fingers and the grafted flaps recovered good sensory function, with a two-point discrimination of 5 to 11 mm (mean, 9 mm). According to the evaluation standard of the upper limb function evaluation of the Chinese Medical Association Hand Surgery Society, the reconstructed thumb was rated as excellent in 24 thumbs, good in 8 thumbs, and fair in 2 thumbs; the reconstructed finger was rated as excellent in 18 fingers, good in 2 fingers, and fair in 1 finger. ConclusionFor the serially damaged injuries on radial side of hand, according to its classification, different tissues are selected for combined transplantation repair and functional reconstruction, which can restore hand function to the greatest extent and improve the quality of life of patients.
ObjectiveTo explore the key genes and potential molecular mechanisms of liver and lymph node metastases relevant to duodenal neuroendocrine tumors (DNET). MethodsThe tissues of paracancerous duodenal epithelial, primary lesion, liver metastasis lesion, and lymph node metastasis lesion of a rare DNET accompanied by liver and lymph node metastases were sequenced and analyzed. The differentially expressed genes (DEGs) were screened for different tissues and the functional enrichment analysis was performed. ResultsThe tissues of paracancerous duodenal epithelial was used as the control, a total of 2 053 DEGs expressed only in the liver metastases lesion tissues and 742 DEGs expressed only in the lymph node metastases lesion tissues were screened out, and the top 5 genes expressed in the liver metastases lesion tissues were ORM1, C4BPA, AHSG, C9, and LBP, which in the lymph node metastases lesion tissues were ABHD12B, AC100850.1, HOXC9, AC083967.1, and HOXC8. Kyoto Encyclopedia of Genes and Genomes enrichment analysis found that the DEGs were mainly enriched in the phosphatidylinosiol 3 kinase / protein kinase B pathway, mitogen-activated protein kinase pathway, human papillomavirus infection, etc. ConclusionMultiple DEGs and pathways in metastatic lesions are found in this patient with DNET accompanied by liver metastasis and lymph node metastasis, which provides a new direction for treatment and prophylaxis of DNET.
ObjectiveTo investigate the management of hepatic vein (HV) in patients with functional single ventricle (FSV) and separate hepatic venous drainage (SHVD) undergoing total cavopulmonary connection (TCPC) and evaluate this kind of surgery.MethodsThe clinical data of 32 consecutive patients with SHVD who underwent modified TCPC operation from August 2005 to January 2017 in our center were retrospectively analyzed. There were 25 males and 7 females with an average age of 2-19 (8.0±5.0) years and body weight of 11-66 (25.4±15.8) kg.ResultsThere were 20 patients with heterotaxy syndrome and 12 patients with other types of FSV. SHVD was diagnosed preoperatively in 27 patients, among whom 20 patients were connected by intra-extracardiac Gore-Tex conduit, and the other 7 patients were connected by extracardiac Gore-Tex conduit. Because of the missed diagnosis of SHVD, the other 5 patients showed severe decrease of blood oxygen saturation in the early postoperative period and underwent re-operation soon. The postoperative blood oxygen saturation was 92.0% (90.0%, 96.0%), central venous pressure was 10-23 (15.5±3.5) mm Hg, mechanical ventilation assisted time was 16.0 (7.5, 24.0) h, and ICU stay time was 3.0 (2.0, 5.5) d. There were 3 early and 1 late deaths.ConclusionIntra-extracardiac conduit is an effective and feasible modified TCPC operation for patients with FSV and SHVD, while the surgical details need to be formulated in combination with individual anatomical structure. Preoperative missed diagnosis of SHVD must be avoided. Otherwise, after TCPC, a large amount of stealing blood from HV with low circulation pressure into atrium would lead to unacceptable hypoxemia.
