颅内动脉瘤的血管内栓塞治疗

目的探讨应用电解可脱性弹簧圈(GDC)栓塞治疗颅内动脉瘤的临床效果。方法2002年6月-2004年6月我们采用GDC栓塞颅内动脉瘤126例(其中4例有2个动脉瘤,共130个)。前交通动脉瘤42个,后交通动脉瘤53个,颈内动脉瘤6个,大脑中动脉瘤10个,大脑后动脉瘤8个,大脑前动脉瘤6个,小脑后下动脉瘤2个;基底动脉瘤3个。按Hunt-Hess分级:Ⅰ级38例,Ⅱ级54例,Ⅲ级23例,Ⅳ级11例。必要时辅以篮筐技术、重塑技术、支架技术、双微导管或连环技术、蚕食技术。结果成功栓塞126例动脉瘤,其中103例为100%栓塞,21例为95%,2例为90%。12例在栓塞后6~18个月进行造影随访,所栓塞动脉瘤均未见复发征象。结论GDC栓塞颅内动脉瘤是安全、有效和微创的治疗手段。联合运用多种栓塞技术有助于减少术后并发症,提高治愈率。     

颈椎前路手术内置物并发症的分析

在颈椎前路减压、植骨、带锁钢板内固定技术日渐成熟的今天,越来越多的医院开展了该项手术。自1998年2月-2005年8月应用该方法治疗颈椎病215例,发生与内置物钢板及钛网相关的并发症14例,为此积累了一定的经验,现总结如下。1临床资料本组215例,男126例,女89例;年龄42～82岁,平均     

Congenital quadricuspid aortic valve with tetralogy of Fallot and pulmonary atresia

We report the case of a 4-year-old girl who had quadricuspid aortic valve regurgitation with tetralogy of Fallot and pulmonary atresia. This combination is very uncommon. Aortic valve replacement was performed successfully due to aortic regurgitation which had progressed one year after the total repair. The dilated aortic annulus plus quadricuspid aortic valve may result in progressive aortic regurgitation for a short period.     

Falls and consequent injuries in hospitalized patients: effects of an interdisciplinary falls prevention program

Background  

Patient falls in hospitals are common and may lead to negative outcomes such as injuries, prolonged hospitalization and legal liability. Consequently, various hospital falls prevention programs have been implemented in the last decades. However, most of the programs had no sustained effects on falls reduction over extended periods of time.
