腹腔镜经腹腹膜前疝修补术与开放式腹膜前疝修补术治疗股疝的疗效比较

目的比较腹腔镜经腹腹膜前疝修补术（TAPP）与开放式腹膜前疝修补术治疗股疝的手术结果和对生活质量的影响。 方法回顾性分析2014年1月至2019年12月新疆医科大学第一附属医院收治的58例股疝患者的临床资料，根据手术方式不同分为TAPP组和开放式腹膜前疝修补术组（开放组），TAPP组31例，开放组27例。比较两组手术指标，采用卡罗来纳舒适量表（CCS）评估并比较两组患者术前及术后1、6、12和24个月的生活质量。 结果TAPP组在手术时间、术中出血量、术后住院天数及术后并发症发生率等方面和开放组相比差异无统计学意义（P>0.05）；TAPP组在术后24 h疼痛视觉模拟评分及术后镇痛药使用率方面明显优于开放组（P<0.05）；TAPP组术后离床时间及术后首次进食时间长于开放组（P<0.05）；2组患者术后随访24个月，均无复发病例。两种术式均能有效改善患者术前的疼痛、运动受限及总体生活质量（P<0.05）；TAPP组患者术后1个月疼痛及总体生活质量优于开放组（P<0.05）。 结论TAPP与开放式腹膜前疝修补术均可有效治疗股疝。TAPP可作为无全身麻醉禁忌股疝患者的首选治疗方法。股疝的治疗应依据患者的自身情况和手术医师的技术掌握程度制定个体化治疗方案。     

Pathology of valved venous homografts used as right ventricle-to-pulmonary artery conduits in congenital heart disease surgery

Objectives

Although valved venous homografts (VVHs) are used for establishing right ventricle-to-pulmonary artery continuity in some complex heart defects, the tissue changes that occur in situ have not been described. We review the gross and microscopic changes observed in explanted VVH conduits and their effects on functionality.

经皮微创锁定钢板内固定对老年肱骨近端骨折患者的临床疗效

目的探讨经皮微创锁定钢板内固定(MIPPO)对老年肱骨近端骨折患者疼痛程度及关节功能的影响。方法前瞻性选取2017年6月-2018年6月治疗的肱骨近端骨折患者105例,依据手术方法将其分为MIPPO组(n=55)和传统切开复位组(n=50),MIPPO组患者行微创锁定钢板改良内固定治疗,传统切开复位组患者行传统切开复位内固定治疗,比较两组患者围术期指标、治疗效果、治疗前后VAS评分及不良事件发生情况。结果MIPPO组患者手术时间[(69.1±16.4)min vs.(101.4±30.5)min]、术中出血量[(85.3±24.5)m L vs.(163.5±40.8)m L)]、术后引流量[(18.3±4.6)m L vs.(23.4±5.3)m L]、住院时间[(2.8±0.9)d vs.(4.5±1.0)d],骨折愈合时间[(11.6±2.3)周vs.(16.8±3.5)周],可负重时间[(8.1±2.1)周vs.(9.6±2.0)周]均短(少)于传统切开复位组,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05)。MIPPO组、传统切开复位组患者治疗有效率分别为94.55%、80.00%,MIPPO组优于传统切开复位组(P<0.05)。治疗前两组患者VAS评分比较差异无统计学意义(P>0.05);术后2、4周,MIPPO组患者VAS评分均低于传统切开复位组(P<0.05)。传统切开复位组患者术后3例发生骨折延迟愈合,2例发生外展受限;MIPPO组患者术后1例发生骨折延迟愈合,1例发生外展受限;两组患者不良事件发生率比较差异无统计学意义(10.00%vs.3.64%,χ^2=1.538,P=0.173)。结论微创锁定钢板改良内固定治疗老年肱骨近端骨折治疗效果显著,不增加不良事件发生风险,值得临床推广使用。     

High Incidence of Intraoperative Fractures With a Specific Cemented Stem Following Intracapsular Displaced Hip Fracture

BackgroundTo reduce costs of orthopedic implants, the government decided to standardize implants used across different specialties in a group of hospitals located in the same geographic area. The usual cemented stem used in the context of intracapsular displaced geriatric hip fractures was replaced by another stem. Abnormal intraoperative calcar and trochanteric fractures were noted. The purpose of this study is to determine the incidence of intraoperative periprosthetic fractures following an intracapsular displaced hip fracture treated with this specific cemented stem compared to the previous implant.MethodsThis is a retrospective cohort study comparing an historic cohort of hip fractures treated with the OmniFit EON (Stryker, Kalamazoo, MI) cemented stem with a new cohort of patients who received the Corail (DePuy Synthes, Warsaw, IN) cemented stem. Four orthopedic surgeons reviewed operative reports and postoperative radiographs.ResultsThe treatment group included 348 patients who received the Corail stem. The control group included 77 patients. The 2 groups had similar baseline characteristics (P > .05) except for the presence of dementia. Incidence of intraoperative calcar or greater trochanteric fracture was 15.5% for the Corail group and 2.7% for the control group (P < .05). No patient-related factors or surgeon-related factors were related to a higher number of fractures in the treatment group (P > .05).ConclusionThe Corail cemented stem presents an abnormal number of iatrogenic intraoperative fractures following displaced femoral neck fracture in our geriatric population. No external factor seems to explain this high number of fractures. Implant design should be questioned.Level of EvidenceIII.     

以胸大肌肱骨止点确定肱骨假体高度的临床体会

目的探讨胸大肌肌腱肱骨止点(pectoralismajor tendon,PMT)上缘作为半肩置换术中假体高度定位参考的临床应用。方法2014年1月至2014年12月间行切开解剖复位钢板内固定的肱骨近端骨折病例12例,男4例,女8例;年龄56~72岁,平均(65.3±5.2)岁。测量PMT上缘到肱骨头最高点的平均距离为(5.21±0.42)cm。2015年1月至2018年12月的38例老年严重肱骨近端骨折行半肩置换的患者,参照PMT上缘到肱骨头最高点的距离5.2 cm确定肱骨假体高度,男7例,女31例;年龄60~82岁,平均(72.0±6.5)岁。术后3个月拍摄双侧肱骨全长X线片并测量长度,比较双侧差异是否有统计学意义。根据对侧肱骨长度(humeruslength,HL),采用HL×0.176计算PMT到肱骨头最高点距离,与(5.21±0.42)cm比较差异是否有统计学意义。结果所有患者均随访3个月,半肩置换侧肱骨全长与对侧肱骨全长分别为(32.41±2.47)cm、(31.93±2.82)cm,比较差异无统计学意义。根据对侧HL×0.176计算PMT到肱骨头最高点距离为(5.61±2.82)cm,与(5.21±0.42)cm比较差异无统计学意义。结论PMT可以作为肱骨假体高度的可靠参照,PMT上缘到肱骨头最高点距离为(5.21±0.42)cm,可以作为参考数值之一。     

Comparison of Gap Balancing vs Measured Resection Technique in Patients Undergoing Simultaneous Bilateral Total Knee Arthroplasty: One Technique per Knee

BackgroundTotal knee arthroplasty requires careful surgical technique to attain the goal of a well-aligned and symmetrically balanced knee. Soft tissue balance and correct femoral component rotation are paramount in achieving these goals. The two competing techniques to select femoral component rotation and soft tissue balance are the gap balance technique and the measured resection technique.MethodsWe performed a randomized, prospective study to compare the two techniques in patients undergoing simultaneous bilateral total knee arthroplasty, whereby one technique was performed in each knee. Fifty (50) subjects were enrolled into the study. The inclusion criteria were osteoarthritic varus knee deformities with similar deformities in both knees. Subjects were followed up for a minimum of two years.ResultsThe knees balanced via the gap balance technique had significantly more posterior medial bone removed from the femur than those knees balanced via the measured resection technique (P < .001). Knees in the gap balance group tended to require more medial knee releases in extension and tended to have smaller sized femoral components as a result of cutting more bone from the femur in flexion. The modular tibial polyethylene bearing tended to be thicker in the gap balance group. Despite these differences, average knee flexion and functional revised Oxford Knee Scores at 2-year follow-up were not statistically different.ConclusionAt 2-year follow-up, there were no differences between the function and scores using the two techniques. Long-term follow-up will be necessary to evaluate any differences in long-term durability.
