fter fracture of femoral neck , the head is often encountered ayascular necrosis. It was not clearwhether the causes of the necrosis was due to injury of the artery or stagnation of venous return orboth. We had observed the hmeodynamics of the blood circulation of both fermoral head of both sides in 27 cases of subcapital fracture by E. C. T. (Emission Computerized Tomography). The resultsshowed that either old, fresh, or heal fractures showed stagnation of venous return. There wasoblite...
Objective Choose polylactide-co-glycolide/hydroxyapatite (PLGA/HA) and porous phosphate calcium (PPC) as the object that we will study, compare their degradabality and choose one as a suitable scaffold for rib reconstruction. Methods All the experiments were divided into PLGA/HA group and CPC group. Degradabality experiment in exvivo: put the two scaffold which have the same size into 0.9% NaCl, keep sterile, then put the container into warm cage，get out and weigh them in 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 weeks, compare the different speed of the two scaffold. Degradability experiment in vivo: put the two scaffold which have the same size under the skin of the rabbit, and weigh them in 2, 4, 8, 12 and 24 weeks, the tissue around the scaffold was examinzed by HE and the scaffold was examined by electron scanning microscope. Results Micro-CT and Scanning electron microscopy shows that CPC group had better structure （1101.2228±0.6184 mg/ccm vs. 1072.5523±0.7442 mg/ccm）and porosity（70.26％±0.45％ vs.72.82％±0.51％）than PLGA/HA group; The result of degradabality experiment in vitro shows that the speed of the two scaffolds was slow. It is at 24 weeks that the degradability is obvious,and the PLGA/HA group degraded a lot which was 60%. The result of degradabality experiment in vivo shows that the speed of degradabality of PLGA/HA group was faster than that is in the 0.9% Nacl, also was faster than that of CPC group which was 96%.The reponse of tissue around the PLGA/HA was more sever than that of CPC group which is in favour of the growth of cells. Conclusion As for the reconstruction of large defect of rib, CPC is more suitable than PLGA/HA.
Primary osteoporosis is a severe social problem. It bothers the health of many aged people. Since May 1993, The doubleenergy density of bone test was carried out in postmenopausal women, among them, in 34 cases the concentration of estrogen, calcitonin parathyroidin, calcium and phosphorus in serum were examined. The results were as follows: the bone density decreased obviously while the serum calitonin and parathyroidun levels were high or low, was risen and fallen, but the serum calcium was higher than normal. Three types of osteoporosis in clinicspo stulated: 1.calcitonin and parathyroidin were normal or absent; 2.calcitonin was higher; 3.parathyroidin was higher. The treatment of the different types shouldbe individulized.
Objective To explore the cl inical appl ication of rib autograft for reconstructing il iac crest by anterior approach of thoracic and lumbar vertebrae, and to observe the short-term and long-term effects. Methods From September 2004 to September 2007, 54 cases of thoracic and lumbar injuries were treated by the surgery of anterior approach of thoracic and lumbar vertebrae.There were 39 males and 15 females with an average age of 42 years old (range, 27-59 years old), including 4 cases of tuberculosis of spine and 50 cases of thoracic and lumbar vertebrae bursting fracture. All cases underwent the surgery of anterior approach of thoracic or lumbar and il iac crest was used as autograft. Fifty-four patients wererandomized into the reconstruction group (RG, n=25) and the non-reconstruction group (NRG, n=29). The patients of RGgroup were treated with rib autograft for reconstructing il iac crest. There were no statistically significant differences in general data between two groups (P gt; 0.05). The visual analogue scores (VAS) was used to estimate pain degree of treated hip after 2 weeks, and 3, 12 months. The extenion satisfaction grade of il iac crest and the comfort degree of action while bundl ing waist belt were estimated after 12 months. It was observed whether or not anterior superior il iac spine avulsion fracture occurred on the premise of non-accidental trauma within 1 year. The occurrence of fracture and the union status of reconstructed il iac crest were observed by X-ray after 1 year. Results All wounds achieved primary heal ing. No compl ication was found at early stage. All patients were followed up 1 year. There was no significant difference in the VAS of the treated hip under conditions of cl inostatism rest between two groups after 2 weeks and 3 months (P gt; 0.05). But there was significant difference in the VAS under conditions of action after 2 weeks and 3 months, under conditions of cl inostatism rest after 12 months (P lt; 0.05), and the VAS of RG was lower than that of NRG. The exterior satisfaction grade of il iac crest and comfort degree of action while bundl ing waist belt in RG were higher than those in NRG after 1 year, showing significant differences (P lt; 0.05). No anterior superior il iac spine avulsion fracture occurred after 1 year. And in RG group no fracture of reconstructed il iac crest occurred after 1 year. The X-ray film showed that the two ends of rib reconstructed by il iac crest were blur, and that the rib healed well with il iac bone. Conclusion Rib autograft for reconstruction of il iac crest by anterior approach of thoracic and lumbar vertebrae was economic and convenient. It could improve local appearance, reduce the local pain, and improve patients’ l ife quality.
Objective To access the possibil ity of CPC as a suitable scaffold for tissue engineering artificial rib by morphologic observation, adhesion experiments and cellar prol iferation experiments. Methods The 5 mm × 5 mm × 5 mm CPCs were prepared and the structure and components of CPC were compared with those of the normal human bone by micro-CT and scanning electron microscope. Bone marrow aspirates were harvested from the young pig and monuclear cells were separated. The first passage cells were collected and re-suspended in the culture media at a density of 6 × 105 cells/mL. There was 150 μL suspension which was incoluated on the CPC, and then cells were recollected and counted 4, 12 and 24 hours after inoculation. MTT was used to examine the growth condition of BMSCs on the surface of CPC. The scanning electron microscope was used to observe the CPC scaffold 7 days after inoculation, and comparison was made with CPC and the normal human bone. Results The adhesion rate of CPC was 28.00% ± 0.98%, 46.70% ± 1.14% and 48.50% ± 1.18%, respectively 4, 12 and 24 hours after compound culture. The prol iferation rate of CPC was 1.103 ± 0.214, 1.557 ± 0.322, 1.920 ± 0.178, 2.564 ± 0.226, 2.951 ± 0.415 and 3.831 ± 0.328, respectively 1, 2, 3, 4, 5 and 6 days after compound culture, with an obvious rising trend. The micro-CT demonstrated that the content of hydroxyapatite of porous phosphate calcium was (1 101.222 8 ± 0.618 4) mg/ ccm while that of the normal human bone was (1 072.552 3 ± 0.744 2) mg/ccm, and the porosity of porous phosphate calcium was 70.26% ± 0.45% while that of the normal human bone was 72.82% ± 0.51%, and there was no significant difference (P gt; 0.05). The experiment of cell prol iferation showed that the cell which was cultivated with porous phosphate calcium prol iferated rapidly. Through the inverted phase contrast microscope, it was found that the cells grew well and there was no dead cell, which indicated that the material had no toxicity. The rate of the cell adhesion to CPC was less than 50%. Conclusion The structure and components of CPC are similar to those of the normal human bone, and BMSCs grow well on the surface of it, so it is asuitable scaffold for tissue engineering artificial rib. However, the cell adhesion abil ity is to be further improved.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the efficiency and clinical outcomes of endoscopic thoracic sympathectomy (ETS) with flexible thoracoscopy under local anesthesia with monitored anesthesia care in primary palmar hyperhidrosis. MethodsFrom March 2011 to March 2013, we performed ETS with flexible thoracoscopy under local anesthesia with monitored anesthesia in 23 patients with primary palmar hyperhidrosis (PH), including 10 males and 13 females with their age of 25.6±7.2 years (range, 17-32 years). T3 sympathectomy was performed with flexible endoscopy under local anesthesia with monitored anesthesia care. All patients were followed up until May 2014. ResultsDuring surgery, the vital signs of the patients remained stable. Operation time was 30-40 minites. The symptom of PH disappeared right in the surgery. All patients were discharged from the hospital on the 2nd postoperative day. One patient received unilateral sympathectomy because of pleural adhesion. Other 22 patients received follow-up to May 2014 and no reoccurrence was reported. ConclusionETS with flexible thoracoscopy under local anesthesia with monitored anesthesia is a safe, microinvasive and effective method.
ObjectiveTo investigate the safety and efficacy of naked eye 3D thoracoscopic surgery in minimally invasive esophagectomy.MethodsClinical data of 65 patients, including 50 males and 15 females aged 47-72 years, with esophageal cancer who underwent minimally invasive thoracoscopic esophagectomy from October 2018 to April 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into two groups according to different surgical methods including a naked eye 3D thoracoscopic group (group A: 30 patients) and a traditional 2D thoracoscopic group (group B: 35 patients). The effects of the two groups were compared.ResultsThe operation time in the group A was significantly shorter than that in the group B (P<0.05). The number of dissected lymph nodes in the group A was more than that in the group B (P<0.05). The thoracic drainage volumes on the 1th-3th days after operation in the group A were significantly larger than those in the group B (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference between the two groups on the 4th-5th days after operation (P>0.05). The indwelling time in the group A was longer than that in the group B (P<0.05). Postoperative hospital stay, pulmonary infection, arrhythmia, anastomotic leakage, and recurrent laryngeal nerve injury were not significantly different between the two groups (P>0.05).ConclusionNaked eye 3D thoracoscopic surgery for minimally invasive esophagectomy is a safe and effective surgical procedure. Compared with traditional 2D minimally invasive thoracoscopic surgery, it is safer in operation and more thorough in clearing lymph nodes. The operation is more efficient and can be promoted.
ObjectiveTo investigate the safety and efficacy of 3D thoracoscopic surgery in uniportal lobectomy.MethodsClinical data of 248 patients with lung cancer who underwent uniportal thoracoscopic lobectomy in our hospital from September 2018 to May 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. Patients were divided into two groups according to different surgical methods, a 3D thoracoscopic group (76 patients, including 52 males and 24 females with an average age of 58.59±7.62 years) and a 2D thoracoscopic group (172 patients, including 102 males and 70 females with an average age of 57.75±8.59 years). Statistical analysis of clinical and pathological data, lymph node dissection, surgical complications, postoperative hospital stay, etc was performed.ResultsCompared with the 2D thoracoscopic group, the 3D thoracoscopic group had shorter operation time, more lymph nodes dissected and pleural effusion on the first day after operation (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the postoperative chest tube duration, postoperative hospital stay, incidence of pulmonary infection, arrhythmia, bronchopleural fistula, or recurrent laryngeal nerve injury between the two groups.ConclusionCompared with the traditional 2D thoracoscopic minimally invasive surgery, uniportal lobectomy with 3D thoracoscopic surgery is safer and more efficient during operation, and lymph node dissection is more thorough, which is worth promoting.
