Intra-lesional injections of collagenase are ineffective in the treatment of keloid and hypertrophic scars.

The treatment of keloid and hypertrophic scars remains difficult. Enzymatic digestion of keloid scars has been previously proposed as an effective treatment strategy for reducing the volume of keloid scars. To test this, we administered intra-lesional injections of pure collagenase (between 600 and 4500 units for each scar) into the keloid and hypertrophic scars of seven human volunteers (five keloid and two hypertrophic scars). Five patients (three keloid and two hypertrophic) received more than one injection of collagenase. The treatment resulted in a temporary reduction in scar volume for three of the patients with keloid scars. However, scar volumes for these three patients returned to the same (or greater) levels after 6 months of follow-up. Treatment with collagenase produced no change in scar volume for the two patients with hypertrophic scar. Side effects were numerous and severe including; pain, swelling, blistering, ulceration and ecchymosis at the site of injection. One patient required admission to hospital for 48 h after the first injection. Maximum length of follow-up was 6 months. None of the seven patients completed the study and returned for final follow-up at 2 years. This pilot study suggests that treatment of keloid and hypertrophic scars with intra-lesional injections of collagenase is ineffective.     

术中超声导航辅助切除脑动静脉畸形

目的探讨术中实时超声导航在脑动静脉畸形(AVM)外科治疗中的应用价值。方法26例脑AVM显微手术切除术中,使用Aloka SSD 4000型超声检查仪扫描,进行AVM定位、辨别供血动脉和引流静脉;确定血肿与AVM的关系以及血流动力学监测。病变切除后重复超声检查AVM残留与否,并与术后脑血管造影结果对比。结果26例畸形血管团均住实时超声下清晰显示并获得全切除。血肿区为高同声无血流信号;供血动脉与正常血管在血流动力学上有差别;术中超声影像所示的病变全切除为术后血管造影所证实。结论术中实时超声能够对脑AVM进行准确定位,指导皮质切口的设计,并可判定病灶是否全切除.对于术前的MRI、DSA检查起到很有价值的补充作用。     

计算机导航辅助椎弓根螺钉固定的临床研究

目的椎弓根螺钉固定是脊柱病变切除后稳定性重建的标准方法。常规术中透视监测行颈胸节段椎弓根螺钉固定具有相当挑战性,本文旨在就计算机导航辅助椎弓根螺钉固定技术进行初步分析。方法2005年1月至2006年3月在计算机导航系统辅助下,对21例患者（年龄17～63岁,平均43．4岁）共行102枚椎弓根螺钉固定。术前采用0．75mm薄层螺旋CT数据扫描并导入计算机工作站进行脊柱三维重建;术中进行工具注册和匹配后对椎弓根螺钉固定进行实时显示。术后所有病例均采用CT和X线平片随访监测效果。结果手术顺利,螺钉大小选择合适,102枚椎弓根螺钉中100枚螺钉（98%）固定位置及方向准确,2枚椎弓根螺钉突破椎弓根外壁距离小于2mm。所有操作均未发生血管和神经损伤并发症。术中透视次数及手术室人员所受X线辐射量明显减少。结论计算机导航辅助椎弓根螺钉固定是一项安全的手术,且手术精度高。     

Fontan conversion with arrhythmia surgery.

OBJECTIVE: Hemodynamic abnormalities and refractory atrial arrhythmias in patients late after the Fontan operation result in significant morbidity and mortality. We reviewed our experience with Fontan conversion and concomitant arrhythmia surgery. METHODS: Between January 1996 and February 2004, 16 patients underwent Fontan conversion and arrhythmia surgery. Mean age at the initial Fontan operation was 5.1+/-3.5 (range: 2-15) years and mean age at Fontan conversion was 17.0+/-5.8 (range: 6-30). The initial Fontan operations were atriopulmonary connections in 14 patients, extracardiac lateral tunnel in 1, and intracardiac lateral tunnel in 1. The types of arrhythmia included atrial flutter in 10 patients and atrial fibrillation in 3. Fontan conversion operation was performed with intracardiac lateral tunnel in 5 patients and extracardiac conduit in 11. Arrhythmia surgery included isthmus cryoablation in 10 patients and right-sided maze in 3. RESULTS: There has been no mortality. At Fontan conversion operation, 7 patients required permanent pacemaker. All patients have improved to New York Heart Association class I or II. With a mean follow-up of 26.9+/-30.6 (range:1-87) months, 16 patients had sinus rhythm, 2 patients had transient atrial flutter which was well controlled, and 2 patients required permanent pacemaker during follow-up. CONCLUSIONS: Fontan conversion with concomitant arrhythmia surgery and permanent pacemaker placement is safe, improves New York Heart Association functional class, and has a low incidence of recurrent arrhythmias. In most patients, concomitant permanent pacemakers are needed.     

后外侧融合对胸腰椎爆裂型骨折疗效的影响

目的 观察后外侧融合对预防胸腰椎爆裂型骨折短节段固定失败的作用及意义。方法 本组60例胸腰椎爆裂型骨折患者，A组30例均为我院收治患者，B组30例均为外院手术来我院复查的患者。A组行短节段内固定自体髂骨植骨、后外侧融合术；B组仅行短节段内固定，未植骨融合。平均随访16个月，在X线侧位片上测量Cobb角、伤椎后凸角及矢状面指数（SI），临床疗效评价采用下腰痛评分法（low back outcome score，LBOS）。结果 手术前、后两组间Cobb角、伤椎后凸角、SI比较，差异无统计学意义（P〉0．05），而末次随访时两组间Cobb角、伤椎后凸角、SI比较，差异有统计学意义（P〈0．01）。LBOS评分A组的优良率为73％（22／30），B组仅为43％（13／30）。结论 后外侧融合是降低内固定失败、减少纠正丢失等并发症的有效措施，只行内固定而不做植骨融合明显增高了并发症的发生率，是不恰当的手术方式。
