导航辅助脊柱胸腰段椎弓根钉植入的临床应用

目的探讨临床运用计算机影像导航技术引导脊柱胸腰段椎弓根钉植入的准确性。方法2003年5月-2007年5月，29例患者接受116枚计算机影像导航技术引导脊柱胸腰段椎弓根钉植入手术治疗，T10-T1250枚胸椎弓根钉，L1-L3 66枚腰椎弓根钉。术中记录椎弓根钉植入所需时间及C-臂透视工作次数，椎弓根钉植入完成后，即行C-臂正侧位摄片并与导航路径进行比较测量。术后CT进行椎弓根层面扫描，根据椎弓根钉与椎弓根皮质问关系分为四级：A=在椎弓根内；B=突破皮质，〈2mm；C=突破皮质，2-4mm；C=突破皮质，〉4mm。结果术后CT椎弓根位置扫描显示：A级101枚（87．07％）；B级10枚（8．62％）；C级2枚（1．72％）；D级3枚（2．59％）。1枚椎弓根钉植入平均所需时间：2．73±0．64min（1．15～4．02min）。下胸椎9枚（7．75％）胸椎弓根钉突破皮质，上腰椎6枚（5．17％）腰椎弓根钉突破皮质，且临床观察未发现与椎弓根钉突破皮质相关的神经血管等并发症。植入的椎弓根钉C-臂正侧位摄片与导航路径吻合比较，进钉点均差2．6mm（最大3．1mm），角度均差3．3°（最大5．4°）。结论计算机影像导航辅助脊柱胸腰段椎弓根钉植入，提供二维、多平面实时显示，保证了脊柱胸腰段椎弓根钉植入的准确性及安全性，明显减少放射线的暴露强度。     

对儿童X线体检中减少照射剂量的探讨

目的:探讨儿童在X线体检中减少照射剂量的方法。方法:应用东芝500mA遥控X线机、FJ-427型热释光剂量仪等设备,对100名3~5岁儿童体检时,随机分成两个对照组、每组50名,分别接受胸透或平片检查,对检查测得数据均进行统计学处理。结果:胸透时胸部接受的照射剂量是平片的22倍多,其它部位接受的X线散射剂量平均值之比亦在20~30倍之间。结论:在儿童X线体检中应采用常规胸片替代胸透,可以有效地降低其辐射危害。

目的评价计算机辅助带锁髓内钉固定胫骨骨折全程手术规划系统的有效性及临床可行性。方法在分析系统结构和操作流程的基础上,利用塑料胫骨模型(9根)和尸体胫骨(12具下肢肢体)进行基于C型臂透视图像的术中骨折肢体图像拼接、骨折闭合复位及髓内钉置入仿真测量实验；利用胫骨模型及尸体胫骨进行图像拼接精度分析,以验证图像拼接与规划模块的正确性。利用尸体胫骨进行计算机辅助骨折闭合复位试验,分析骨折复位机构模块的操作可行性。结果图像拼接模块只需术中采集7～10张有效的C型臂图像即可拼接出下肢长骨的全景图像,为采集图像所需的术中透视时间为(19．75±0．61)s；计算机进行X线透视图像采集和拼接总时间为(4．17±0．86)min；塑料模型拼接精度达(1．26±0．76)mm。结论该系统实现了基于C型臂拼接图像的计算机辅助胫骨骨折髓内钉内固定全程手术规划,术中可完成骨折复位图像分析、手术规划、虚拟仿真,髓内钉型号选择以及骨折复位等关键操作,为计算机辅助骨科手术系统治疗长骨骨折搭建了精确、安全、稳定的软硬件技术平台。     

Are We Being Fooled by Fluoroscopy? Distortion May Affect Limb-Length Measurements in Direct Anterior Total Hip Arthroplasty

BackgroundDistortion is an intrinsic phenomenon associated with image-intensified fluoroscopy that is both poorly understood and infrequently appreciated by orthopedic surgeons. Little information exists regarding its potential influence on intraoperative parameters during orthopedic surgery, let alone during direct anterior (DA) total hip arthroplasty (THA). The purpose of this study was to quantify the amount of potential error caused by fluoroscopic distortion during DA THA.MethodsIntra-operative fluoroscopic pelvic images from 74 DA THAs were reviewed by two independent readers. All images were obtained using the same fluoroscopic C-arm unit with a radiopaque grid attached to the image intensifier. The vertical distortion from a straight central horizontal line at the peripheries of images were measured and summed to yield the combined vertical distortion similar to how a surgeon calculates a side to side comparison of limb lengths. Simple linear regression was used to evaluate associations between total distortion and patient demographics, operating theaters, and various operative parameters.ResultsThe average combined distortion was 10.0mm (range 2.0-20.0mm). There was a significant difference in the average distortion observed in different theaters (P < .001). There was no association between distortion and patient demographics or fluoroscopic time (all, P > .05).ConclusionFluoroscopic distortion is unpredictable and can cause a substantial amount of error when comparing limb lengths during DA THA. This is a critical finding as this amount of inaccuracy could lead to unintended implant positioning and limb-length discrepancies if unaccounted for.     

Percutaneous treatment of orofacial vascular malformations

The aim of this study was to evaluate the efficacy of fluoroscopy-guided percutaneous injection of bleomycin as the primary treatment for low-flow vascular malformations. A total of 34 patients (mean (range) age 24 (8–51) years) with orofacial vascular lesions were treated in the Department of Interventional Radiology and Maxillofacial Surgery. There were 20 low-flow venous malformations, 11 lymphatic malformations, and three of mixed type. All patients were treated by fluoroscopy-guided percutaneous injection of a mixture of bleomycin (mean (range) 15 (5–15) mg) and a radio-opaque agent (Ultravist^® (iopromide), Bayer)/session. The number of sessions ranged from one to six. The clinical response was complete in 21 patients, obvious in nine, and of clinical benefit in four. Patients were reviewed within the first week, third week, and at three-month periods until 24 months. There were no serious complications such as pulmonary fibrosis. Fluoroscopy-guided intralesional injection of bleomycin should be considered as the first-line treatment for lymphatic malformations because it is effective and reliable with few complications.
