Management of sagittal craniosynostosis: morphological comparison of eight surgical techniques

The aim of this study was to carry out a retrospective multicentre study comparing the morphological outcome of 8 techniques used for the management of sagittal synostosis versus a large cohort of control patients. Computed tomographic (CT) images were obtained from children CT-scanned for non-craniosynostosis related events (n = 241) and SS patients at preoperative and postoperative follow-up stages (n = 101). No significant difference in morphological outcomes was observed between the techniques considered in this study. However, the majority of techniques showed a tendency for relapse. Further, the more invasive procedures at older ages seem to lead to larger intracranial volume compared to less invasive techniques at younger ages. This study can be a first step towards future multicentre studies, comparing surgical results and offering a possibility for objective benchmarking of outcomes between methods and centres.

颅底中线区大型和巨大型脑膜瘤的显微手术切除

目的探讨颅底中线区不同部位大型和巨大型脑膜瘤手术入路和切除方式,并分析特殊类型脑膜瘤手术治疗方法。方法本组93例,男性26例,女性67例;平均年龄48.4岁。术前行神经影像学检查,根据肿瘤部位,选择相应手术入路,采用显微手术切除肿瘤。结果肿瘤全切除80例(86.02%),大部分切除13例(13.98%),死亡1例(10.75%)。除单条颅神经功能术前完全丧失外,术后神经功能改善者75例(81.52%),不变者10例(10.86%),加重者7例(7.6%)。经6月￣7年随访,13例(14.13%)肿瘤复发。结论颅底中线区大型和巨大型脑膜瘤手术切除难度大。要取得良好的手术效果,必须选择正确手术入路,采用分块切除方式,精心保护重要血管和神经。     

外伤脱位牙的临床研究

目的研究脱位牙的临床治疗、治疗效果及其影响因素.病人和方法98例牙脱位患者,根据不同情况进行适当处理,然后进行复位、即刻牙再植、牙弓夹板固定等治疗;通过牙髓活力检查、X片检查,随访观察治疗后的临床效果及牙齿愈合情况.结果部分脱位的73颗牙,复位后全部保存,术后随访无临床症状,X线检查未发现牙根吸收及周围骨质丧失;全脱位的25颗牙,进行牙再植后,除2例外,均获得成功保留.结论部分脱位牙应在局麻下进行复位、固定;完全脱位牙齿应作牙再植术.     

Cranial nasal bone grafts

Reconstitution of the nasal scaffolding with maintainence of soft tissue proportions either following severe facial trauma or as a sequela to aesthetic rhinoplasty misadventures frequently is best achieved using the stability afforded by bone grafts. Split cranial bone grafts offer many advantages and may be the donor site of choice, and may even allow such surgery to be performed on an outpatient basis in some cases. The use of miniplate or screw osteosynthesis, now commonly accepted as a superior technique in craniomaxillofacial procedures, may simplify fixation of these calvarial nasal bone grafts with an apparent decrease in the risk of resorption.     

儿童颅骨肿物的诊断和治疗

目的 探讨儿童颅骨肿物的常见病理类型、临床特点和治疗方法。方法 回顾性分析25例手术治疗的儿童颅骨肿物病例，对其临床症状、影像学资料、治疗方法以及生存情况等进行分析研究。结果 全切除手术15例，近全切除手术6例，部分切除手术3例，1例行活检手术。随访20例患儿，85％的患儿手术后基本恢复了正常的生活，2例生活需要照顾，随访期间死亡的患儿1例。结论 儿童颅骨肿物的诊断和治疗相对有别于成人。积极的手术治疗可以达到明确诊断，延缓神经功能缺损的发展，延长患儿的生存期以及美容等目的。     

延迟性脑脊液鼻漏病理机制及诊治探讨

目的总结15例经手术治疗的延迟性脑脊液鼻漏的临床资料,探讨脑脊液鼻漏的病理机制及其与诊断治疗的关系。方法本组共15例脑脊液鼻漏患者,其中颅底骨折13例,自发性1例和垂体瘤术后1例。重点分析术前CTMRI扫描,术中所见,以及疗效三者之间的关系。结果术中见14例患者神经组织疝入鼻窦,垂体瘤术后鼻漏为鞍上池下疝,其中后7例的CT扫描显示骨缺损,MRI显示神经组织下疝与术中所见完全一致。15例术后14例治愈,1例无效,无手术并发症。结论神经组织或鞍上池经颅底缺损疝入鼻窦为外伤后或自发性脑脊液鼻漏不能自愈的病理机制的重要环节,由于上述组织的疝入,导致粘膜、硬膜、蛛网膜难以修复。冠状CT扫描和MRI可确定瘘口部位,如果冠状CT有骨缺损,MRI检查相应部位有脑组织下疝,应积极早期手术治疗。     

Socio-economic burden of permanent incisor replantation on children and parents

Abstract – This study describes the socio‐economic burden and attitudes of children and their parents following replantation of avulsed incisors. Records of 80 patients with 99 avulsion injuries treated in a teaching hospital clinic from 1988 to 1999 were reviewed. Mean age at time of injury was 10.6 years (range = 6.6–17.7 years). Complete records for a minimum of 1 year were obtained for 43 patients with 60 replanted incisors. Mean treatment procedures provided during the first year included 5.5 diagnostic periapical radiographs, 1.9 occlusal radiographs, 1.3 pulpectomies, and 2.7 pulp medicament applications. The mean estimated treatment cost and direct time (dentist) for first‐year post‐trauma management was $1465 CAD and 7.2 h, respectively. Treatment costs were significantly higher during the first year post‐trauma for patients who had their incisors extracted (P = 0.04), but there was no significant difference in direct treatment time between the two groups (P = 0.19). Twenty‐one patient–parent pairs were surveyed for a number of qualitative factors. Ninety per cent of patients and 86% of parents reported that school and work time was lost. Even after having gone through the painful experience of replantation, the demands of recall, and in some cases, extraction, the majority of patients (67%) and parents (81%) stated that they would have still made the same (replantation) decision. Patient and parent responses were not statistically different (P = 0.453). Almost half the parents stated they would be willing to pay over $2000 CAD to save an incisor. Patients rated retention of an incisor as significantly more important than infraocclusion. This is the first study to quantify the treatment burden of replantation of avulsion injuries exclusively in the pediatric population. This study describes the socio‐economic burden and responsibilities of patient/parent and dentist and their role in informed consent.     

新生儿骨矿质含量及影响因素的研究

应用双光子及单光子吸收测定技术，检测了９２名出生３ｄ内的新生儿骨矿质含量，其中巨大儿３０名，正常体重儿３２名，低出生体重儿３０名，其孕龄分别是４０．１±０．７、３９．１±１．５和３７．４±１．２孕周。结果表明，巨大儿、正常体重儿、低出生体重儿的全身骨矿质含量分别是１０１．６±２８．８、８５．２±１９．８、５９．９±２７．２ｇ／ｃｍ２，巨大儿骨矿质含量最高，正常体重儿次之，低出生体重儿最低，差异有显著性（Ｐ＜０．０１）。颅骨、肱骨、股骨的骨矿质含量与全身的骨矿质含量有高度的相关性，相关系数分别是０．９４３、０．８７９和０．７４５（Ｐ＜０．０１）。全身的骨矿质含量与出生体重、孕龄及头围有高度相关性，相关系数分别是０．７５５、０．５９６和０．５５６（Ｐ＜０．０１）。提示颅骨、肱骨及股骨的任一部位均可代表全身的骨矿质含量，肱骨是确定全身骨矿质含量较好的部位，新生儿骨矿质含量受出生体重、孕龄及头围的影响较大。
