椎弓根螺钉三椎体内固定对脊椎爆裂性骨折患者椎体与神经功能状态的影响观察

目的:探讨椎弓根螺钉三椎体内固定对脊椎爆裂性骨折患者椎体与神经功能状态的影响.方法:选取2013年7月至2015年1月于本院进行治疗的58例脊椎爆裂性骨折患者为研究对象,对其进行回顾性研究,将其根据手术方式不同分为对照组(短节段椎弓根内固定组)29例和观察组(椎弓根螺钉三椎体内固定组)29例,然后将两组患者手术前与手术后不同时间的伤椎恢复指标与血清神经功能相关指标进行比较.结果:观察组手术后不同时间的伤椎恢复指标中的后凸Cobb角、椎体平移率、椎体高度丢失率与血清神经功能相关指标中的BDNF、NSE、NGF及S100B均显著好于同期的对照组指标,并且明显好于其治疗前,均有显著性差异(P＜0.05).结论:椎弓根螺钉三椎体内固定可更为有效地恢复脊椎爆裂性骨折患者椎体参数,并且更有助于神经功能状态的恢复.     

Anatomical structures at risk using different approaches for sacrospinous ligament fixation

For 50 years now, sacrospinous ligament fixation (SSLF) has been used to treat pelvic organ prolapse consequent on altered integrity of the pelvic myofascial structures. It is usually performed vaginally, but it has recently been performed laparoscopically through either an anterior or a posterior approach, with the broad ligament as a landmark to differentiate the two. In the present study, these two laparoscopic approaches were assessed using Thiel-embalmed cadavers. The anterior and posterior approaches were compared in terms of the closest distance to anatomical structures at risk, including pelvic viscera, the obturator nerve, and vascular structures. The posterior approach was more often closer to the investigated vessels and the rectum. The obturator nerve and the ureter were close to both the anterior and posterior approaches. The urinary bladder was closer using the anterior approach. From an anatomical standpoint, therefore, the anterior laparoscopic approach for SSLF is more likely to cause injury to the urinary bladder, whereas the posterior approach is more prone to causing rectal and vessel injuries. This study illustrates, from a basic science perspective, the importance of combining fascia research, novel endoscopic or minimally invasive surgical exposures informed by anatomy, and contemporary trends in gynecology in order to improve patient outcomes.

可吸收明胶海绵棒在椎弓根内止血的应用

[目的]观察评价可吸收明胶海绵棒在椎弓根置钉过程中的止血效果。[方法]2017年10月~2018年6月,48例胸腰椎骨折即将行后路手术的患者纳入本研究,采用随机数字表法分为明胶海绵组和骨蜡组。明胶海绵组共23例,置钉过程中应用明胶海绵棒填塞至椎弓根孔道止血;骨蜡组共25例,在透视定位时应用骨蜡封闭椎弓根孔道。记录置钉情况;记录术中出血量、自体血回输量、置钉过程中的出血量、输血量;检测术前和术后5 d RBC、HB和HCT。[结果]两组在置钉总数、伤椎置钉数、伤椎位置各椎置钉数量的差异均无统计学意义(P>0.05)。术后两组各出现1例小腿肌间静脉血栓,抗凝治疗后于复查时消失。术后两组均无明胶海绵或骨蜡导致的不良反应。两组在术中出血量、术中自体血回收量、输血量的差异无统计学意义(P>0.05),但明胶海绵组上述指标均小于骨蜡组。每钉置入过程中明胶海绵组的出血量显著少于骨蜡组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。两组术后5 d的RBC、HB和HCT均较术前显著减少,两时间点间差异均有统计学意义(P<0.05)。术前两组在RBC、HB和HCT的差异均无统计学意义(P>0.05),术后5 d两组在RBC、HB和HCT的差异亦均无统计学意义(P>0.05)。[结论]应用明胶海绵棒填塞椎弓根孔道止血可显著减少安置椎弓根螺钉过程中的出血,是一种简单、安全、有效的脊柱外科术中止血方法。     

CT三维重建模型下模拟髋臼前柱2种经皮置钉方法的比较

目的对比CT三维重建模型下模拟髋臼前柱2种经皮置钉方法的效果。方法选取55例正常成人骨盆CT资料构建三维模型,共110侧髋臼前柱,调整模型透明度使其类似常规X线片,分别用2种置钉方法进行置钉,A组利用出口闭孔位和入口髂骨位引导置钉,B组利用髋臼前柱轴位引导置钉,置钉完成后恢复图像为不透明状态,记录螺钉是否进入髋关节及与耻骨支的位置关系。结果55例110侧髋臼,4侧未能找到髋臼前柱轴位影像予以剔除,106侧髋臼前柱纳入研究。2组模型均无螺钉进入髋臼。A组螺钉置入优秀、良好、尚可率分别为59.4%、17.0%、23.6%,B组分别为59.4%、22.6%、17.9%,2组总体置钉质量差异无统计学意义(Z=-0.829,P=0.407)。A组女性骨盆置钉优秀、良好、尚可率分别为7.1%、21.4%、71.4%,B组分别为28.6%、21.4%、50.0%,B组置钉质量显著高于A组(Z=-3.000,P=0.003)。A组男性骨盆置钉优秀率78.2%,良好率15.4%,尚可率6.4%,B组分别为70.5%、23.1%、6.4%,2组差异无显著性(Z=-0.969,P=0.333)。结论髋臼前柱轴位可以作为引导置钉的一种手段,尤其适用于女性患者,对于男性患者,2种方法均可实现较好的置钉。     

Conjunctival flap advancement with or without scleral graft for hypotony maculopathy after trabeculectomy

AIM: To introduce a novel technique for transscleral fixation of the PC-IOL that requires no sutures on the IOL haptics. METHODS: Instead of suturing polypropylene onto the IOL haptics, the method simply winds the thread on the haptics. Fifteen eyes of 15 patients underwent this technique and were followed up for more than 18 months. Surgical outcomes and post-operative complications were evaluated and compared with those of the conventional transscleral fixation method. RESULTS: Postoperative cylinder was significantly lower in the thread winding group than in the conventional transscleral fixation method group (-1.02±0.46 diopters vs -1.57±0.77 diopters; P=0.01). Further, no postoperative complications, such as optic capture, IOL dislocation, and hyphema, were detected in the thread winding group. CONCLUSION: We believe that our thread winding technique is better than previously reported methods because it is simple, mechanically stable, and free from suture-related complications.     

Acute total hip arthroplasty for older patients with acetabular fractures: A meta-analysis

ObjectiveMultiple treatment options for acetabular fractures in geriatric patients exist. However, no large-scale studies have reported the outcomes of acute total hip arthroplasty (THA) in this patient population. We systematically evaluated all available evidence to characterize clinical outcomes, complications, and revisions of acute THA for acetabular fractures in geriatric patients.MethodsMeta-analysis of 21 studies of 430 acetabular fractures with mean follow-up of 44 months (range, 17−97 months). Two independent researchers searched and evaluated the databases of Ovid, Embase, and United States National Library of Medicine using a Boolean search string up to December 2019. Population demographics and complications, including presence of heterotopic ossification (HO), dislocation, infection, revision rate, neurological deficits, and venous thromboembolic event (VTE), were recorded and analyzed.ResultsWeighted mean Harris Hip Score was 83.3 points, and 20% of the patients had reported complications. The most common complication was HO, with a rate of 19.5%. Brooker grade III and IV HO rates were lower at 6.8%. Hip dislocation occurred at a rate of 6.1%, 4.1% of patients developed VTE, deep infection occurred in 3.8%, and neurological complications occurred in 1.9%. Although the revision rate was described in most studies, we were unable to perform a survival analysis because the time to each revision was described in only a few studies. The revision rate was 4.3%.ConclusionsAcute THA is a viable option for treatment of acetabular fracture and can result in acceptable clinical outcomes and survivorship rates in older patients but with an associated complication rate of approximately 20%. Considering the limited treatment options, THA might be a viable alternative for appropriately selected patients.
