Effect of pneumatic leg compression on post-induction hypotension in elderly patients undergoing robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy: a double-blind randomised controlled trial

Post-induction hypotension is common and associated with postoperative complications. We hypothesised that pneumatic leg compression reduces post-induction hypotension in elderly patients undergoing robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy. In this double-blind randomised study, patients were allocated randomly to the pneumatic leg compression group (n = 50) or control (n = 50). In the intervention group, pneumatic leg compression was initiated before induction of anaesthesia. In the control group, pneumatic leg compression was initiated 20 min after anaesthesia induction. The primary outcome was the incidence of post-induction hypotension in these groups. Post-induction hypotension was defined as systolic blood pressure < 90 mmHg during the first 20 min after induction. Haemodynamic variables and area under the curve of post-induction systolic blood pressure over time were assessed. Complications associated with pneumatic leg compression were recorded, including: peripheral neuropathy; compartment syndrome; extensive bullae beneath the leg sleeves; and pulmonary thromboembolism. The incidence of post-induction hypotension decreased in the pneumatic leg compression group compared with that in the control group; 5 (10%) vs. 29 (58%), respectively, p < 0.001. In the pneumatic leg compression group, the lowest systolic, diastolic and mean blood pressures 20 min after induction of anaesthesia were significantly greater than the control group. Pneumatic leg compression resulted in an increased area under the curve of systolic blood pressure in the first 20 min after induction, p = 0.001. There were no pneumatic leg compression-related complications. Pneumatic leg compression reduced post-induction hypotension in elderly patients undergoing robot-assisted laparoscopic prostatectomy, suggesting that it is an effective and safe intervention to prevent post-induction hypotension among elderly patients undergoing general anaesthesia.     

锁骨钩钢板内固定术后钢板钩与肩峰匹配性影像学研究

目的通过测量锁骨钩钢板内固定术后患者影像学资料，分析发生肩峰骨侵蚀的原因是否与钢板钩-肩峰匹配度相关。 方法回顾性分析2015年8月1日至2018年8月31日期间在上海市浦东医院骨科就诊的210例患者的影像学资料，210例患者均因肩锁关节脱位或锁骨远端骨折行锁骨钩钢板内固定治疗，其中男110例、女100例；年龄24~76岁，平均（44.60±8.75）岁；肩锁关节脱位70例，锁骨远端骨折140例。测量术后及终末随访患者肩锁关节正位X线片相关数据，按锁骨钩钢板术后是否发生肩峰骨侵蚀，将纳入患者分为3组：无骨侵蚀组（A组）、伴钢板钩移位骨侵蚀组（B组）、不伴移位的骨侵蚀组（C组），分别测量钢板钩-肩峰的匹配度（β），统计分析术后发生肩峰骨侵蚀与钢板钩-肩峰匹配度之间的关系。 结果纳入研究的210例患者术后随访24~64周，平均（32.0±6.5）周。A组患者115例，B组患者54例，C组患者41例。A组匹配度β（3.72±0.48）mm与B组β¹（6.91±0.84）mm比较差异有统计学意义（P<0.05）；A组匹配度β（3.72±0.48）mm与C组β²（5.88±0.65）mm比较差异有统计学意义（P<0.05）；B组匹配度β¹（6.91±0.84）mm与C组β²（5.88±0.65）mm比较差异有统计学意义（P<0.05）。 结论锁骨钩钢板内固定术后是否发生肩峰骨侵蚀与钢板钩-肩峰匹配度β存在明显相关性，钢板钩与肩峰之间的匹配度越好，β值越小，发生肩峰骨侵蚀的可能性更小。     

单双侧经皮椎体成形术治疗骨质疏松性椎体压缩性骨折疗效对比

【摘要】 目的 对比分析单双侧经皮椎体成形术治疗骨质疏松性椎体压缩性骨折的临床效果。方法 选取2018 年 5 月至 2020 年 6 月河南省洛阳正骨医院收治的 104 例骨质疏松性椎体压缩性骨折患者作为研究对象, 并按照治疗方法将其分为单侧组与双侧组, 每组 52 例。单侧组患者采用单侧经皮椎体成形术治疗, 双侧组患者采用双侧经皮椎体成形术治疗, 对比两组患者手术时间、视觉模拟评分法 (VAS) 评分、椎体前缘高度、Cobb 角以及并发症发生情况。 结果 单侧组患者手术时间明显短于双侧组 (t = 29.664, P < 0.001); 术后 1 个月, 单侧组患者VAS评分、椎体前缘高度及 Cobb 角与双侧组无明显差异 ( t = 0.312、0.487、0.657, P = 0.756、0.627?0.513); 单侧组患者并发症发生率与双侧组无明显差异 (χ2= 0.343, P = 0.558)。结论 单双侧经皮椎体成形术治疗骨质疏松性椎体压缩性骨折均可取得满意的治疗效果, 但单侧经皮椎体成形术手术时间较短, 操作更简便。     

Uncommon causes of nerve compression in the distal forearm

IntroductionNerve compression by anomalous masses located at the wrist and distal forearm is an infrequent condition. They may compress underlying structures in the carpal tunnel region, causing pain and paresthesias, which leads to the wrong diagnosis of carpal tunnel syndrome.Clinical casesWe present three cases of patients with symptomatology and clinical tests compatible with compression of the median nerve in the carpal tunnel but whose physical examination showed a soft mass in the distal region of the forearm which was compressing the median nerve, as demonstrated by ultrasound evaluation.DiscussionThe reported cases of accessory muscles or lipomas described in the literature as causes of median nerve compression clinic are mainly described only after the surgical decompression of the carpal tunnel, due to the maintenance of residual symptoms.ConclusionCareful examination with an ultrasound evaluation prior to surgery may help to identify these cases and help planning surgical treatment.

Disengagement of tibial insert locking pin in total knee arthroplasty - A rare failure case report

Total Knee Arthroplasty (TKA) has seen many advancements over the years. One such advancement is development of locking mechanism for polyethylene insert in modular implants. It aims to reduce micro motion and wear problems. Disengagement of locking pin from insert after primary TKA without trauma is rare complication. The author describes a rare case of disengagement of the polyethylene insert locking pin in primary total knee arthroplasty. Disengagement of the locking clip was observed 8 months after index operation without any trauma.
