Technetium-99m sestamibi scintigraphy for the assessment of lower extremity ischaemia in peripheral arterial disease

Technetium-99m sestamibi was used for functional investigation of the muscle perfusion of lower extremities in 35 patients with peripheral vascular disease. The aim was to test what useful information could be obtained by additional imaging of the legs in patients referred for risk stratification with dipyridamole myocardial scanning. Posterior images were acquired over the thighs and calves after postocclusive reactive hyperaemia and at rest. Inter- and intraextremity ratios and differences between the stress and rest data were used for the assessment of abnormal circulation. Arteriography was performed in every case, and surgical procedures or transluminal angioplasty in 31 patients. To estimate diagnostic accuracy, the results of^99mTc-sestamibi scintigraphy were compared with those of angiography and the functional consequences of revascularization procedures. The sensitivity and specificity of^99mTc-sestamibi scintigraphy were 55% and 25%, respectively, with an overall accuracy of 50%. Apparently methodological error was not responsible for these poor results. Instead, a paradoxically high uptake of the radiopharmaceutical in muscles supplied by significantly stenosed vessels was identified as the main source of both false-negative and false-positive results. This phenomenon resembles the findings of a previous study involving delayed administration of thallium-201 after exercise. In conclusion,^99mTc-sestamibi scintigraphy has not proved sufficiently reliable to help in the management strategy for patients with peripheral vascular disease.     

Free flap reconstruction of the lower extremity in the elderly

Summary Over a four year period, thirteen patients over the age of 60 (mean 69 years) underwent reconstruction of lower extremity defects with free tissue transfers. Ten latissimus dorsi, one tensor facia lata, and two rectus abdominus free flaps were used. Despite significant risk factors which included previous tobacco use, hypertension, diabetes mellitus, and angiographic vessel abnormalities, ten of thirteen cases had successful outcomes. There was one acute flap failure secondary to arterial thrombosis. Four flaps had delayed healing, with one patient eventually requiring amputation secondary to persistent pain and wound drainage. This experience demonstrates that free flap reconstruction of lower extremity defects in the elderly patient is a reasonable alternative to amputation when other options are limited.From the Section of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery at the Mayo Clinic and Mayo Foundation, Rochester, Minnesota, USA Requests for reprints: J.

下肢静脉病变顺、逆行造影的诊断价值

目的:探讨下肢静脉病变顺、逆行造影X线表现与病理改变的关系。方法:回顾性分析86例(119侧)下肢静脉病变顺、逆行造影X线表现。结果:顺行造影显示原发性下肢深静脉瓣膜关闭不全84侧,交通静脉瓣膜关闭不全14侧,单纯性瓣膜关闭不全11侧,静脉瘤或弥漫性血管湖6侧,先天性下肢静脉发育异常4侧。逆行造影显示0级13侧,Ⅰ级58侧,Ⅱ级21侧,Ⅲ级19侧,Ⅳ级8侧。结论:下肢静脉病变顺、逆行同时造影能更好地显示下肢浅、深静脉瓣膜功能,为临床诊断或治疗提供非常有价值的依据。     

肢体缺血预处理对兔肺缺血再灌注损伤的影响

目的 探讨肢体缺血预处理对兔肺缺血再灌注损伤的影响.方法 健康日本大耳白兔18只,体重2.0～2.5 kg,雌雄不拘,随机分为3组(n=6):假手术组(S组)开胸后左侧肺门穿线但不结扎,旷置观察340 min;缺血再灌注组(IR组)开胸旷置100 min,阻断左侧肺门,左肺不张后60 min再灌注180 min;肢体缺血预处理组(L组)捆绑双后肢10 min,松开10 min,反复3次后恢复灌注,60 min后阻断左侧肺门60 min,再灌注180 min.于缺血前、再灌注15、30、60、120、180 min时采集左颈内动脉血样行血气分析,计算呼吸指数(R1);于再灌注180 min时处死动物,取左肺上叶组织,测定超氧化物歧化酶(SOD)、髓过氧化物酶(MPO)活性及丙二醛(MDA)含量,计算肺湿干重比(W/D);取左肺下叶行支气管肺泡灌洗,计算肺通透性指数;取左肺中叶组织,观察肺组织病理学,进行弥漫性肺泡损伤(DAD)评分.结果 与s组比较,IR组RI、MDA含量、MPO活性、肺W/D、肺通透性指数和DAD评分升高,SOD活性降低(P<0.05或0.01);与IR组比较,L组RI,MDA含量、MPO活性、肺W/D、肺通透性指数和DAD评分降低,SOD活性升高(P<0.05或0.01);L组和S组间上述指标比较差异无统计学意义(P>0.05).L组和S组肺组织病理损伤程度较IR组减轻.结论 肢体缺血预处理可减轻兔肺缺血再灌注损伤.     

Fracture separation of the articular pillar of C5 following brass knuckles trauma

We report the case of a fracture separation of the articular pillar at the lower cervical spine. The trauma, following a brass knuckles, repeats almost in an experimental way the rotation and extension mechanism given in literature for the genesis of such injuries. From the admission in the orthopaedic service to the surgery, the development went in a characteristic way towards a rotatory displacement.
