Reconstruction of musculoskeletal defects about the knee for tumor

One of the most challenging problems of limb salvage is a large tumor involving the knee joint. Since 1970, 79 patients, ranging in age from 14 to 74 years (mean, 27 years), have had reconstruction of the knee after en bloc resection of a primary bone tumor. Sixty-one patients had lesions involving the distal femur, with a mean resection length of 13.5 cm, and 18 patients had lesions involving the proximal tibia, with a mean resection length of 10.5 cm. Thirty-nine patients had malignant lesions, of which osteosarcomas predominated, and 40 patients had benign tumors, of which giant cell tumors were the most prevalent. Reconstruction was done with a custom total knee arthroplasty in 41 patients, a resection arthrodesis in 27, and an allograft in 11. The functional results were graded according to the rating system devised by the Musculoskeletal Tumor Society. of the patients with resection arthroplasty, 70% had a good or excellent rating, although ten required revision. Of the patients with resection arthrodesis, 74% had a good or excellent rating, as did 55% of the patients with osteochondral allografts. When a limb salvage procedure is done, careful consideration must be given to the type of procedure chosen to reconstruct the knee. This decision is based on a number of factors related to the tumor and the patient. Although these various procedures promise functional restoration, the reconstructive procedure should be individualized and designed to meet the needs of the patient.     

小脑后下动脉动脉瘤的诊断和治疗

目的探讨小脑后下动脉动脉瘤的临床特征、诊断、鉴别诊断和治疗。方法回顾性分析12例小脑后下动脉瘤的临床表现、影像学特征、手术效果及诊治过程中存在的相关问题。结果12例中有11例因动脉瘤破裂出血而发病,单纯第四脑室出血4例,全脑室系统出血2例,小脑半球出血3例,小脑蚓部伴第四脑室出血1例,侧脑室伴第三脑室出血1例,以后颅窝占位病变表现1例。8例术前行DSA检查明确诊断,4例术中明确诊断。12例均行后颅窝开颅显微手术治疗,其中动脉瘤颈夹闭9例,孤立切除2例,动脉瘤加固术1例,术后2例因脑积水加重行脑室-腹腔分流术。12例中除1例术后留有轻偏瘫外,其余11例恢复良好。结论小脑后下动脉瘤多以第四脑室出血发病,少数以小脑半球或蚓部出血发病,及早治疗效果满意。手术方式应尽量夹闭动脉瘤颈,对于小脑后下动脉末端动脉瘤,可以采用孤立切除术。     

Nerve growth factor and tyrosine kinase A in human salivary adenoid cystic carcinoma: expression patterns and effects on in vitro invasive behavior.

PURPOSE: Perineural invasion is a frequent occurrence in salivary adenoid cystic carcinoma (ACC) and may prevent complete surgical resection. Studies have indicated that nerve growth factor (NGF) and its high-affinity receptor tyrosine kinase A (TrkA) may play a role in perineural invasion in several malignancies in which perineural invasion is observed. The present study was conducted to investigate the expression of NGF and TrkA in salivary ACC and to examine the effects of NGF on adhesion, migration and invasion capacities of a salivary ACC cell line (SACC-83) in vitro. PATIENTS AND METHODS: Expression of NGF and TrkA was explored using immunohistochemistry in paraffin-embedded tissues of 32 cases of salivary ACC. The effects of NGF on in vitro adhesion, migration, and invasion capacities of the SACC-83 cell line were examined using an MTT assay and a modified Boyden chamber assay respectively. RESULTS: In ACC specimens, 31 (96.9%) and 32 (100%) tumors showed immunoreactivity for NGF and TrkA respectively. Significant correlations were found between NGF/TrkA expression levels and perineural invasion (P < .05). In cell adhesion assay, the percent adherences of SACC-83 cells co-cultured with 25 ng/ml NGF at 1.5 hours and 5, 25 ng/ml NGF at 6 hours were significantly higher than that co-cultured with 0 ng/ml NGF (P < .05). However, high concentration of NGF (500 ng/ml) resulted in a significant inhibition of invasion (P < .05). CONCLUSION: Overexpression of NGF and TrkA in human salivary ACC tissues may constitute a reason for perineural invasion in salivary ACC.     

牛骨形成蛋白在骨不连中的临床应用

应用牛骨形成蛋白（ｂｏｖｉｎｅＢｏｎｅＭｏｒｐｈｏｇｅｎｅｔｉｃＰｒｏｔｅｉｎ简称ｂ－ＢＭＰ）成功的治愈１３例骨不连病人。经过１３个月～２９个月随访观察，效果较好。本组病人术前平均已做过１．５次手术。１３例病人中，有１２例被１次治愈。１例病人再次行内固定加用牛骨形成蛋白的植入也被治愈。骨形成蛋白的应用方式，采用同锻石膏复合后植入骨不连处。平均每个病人植入１００ｍｇＢＭＰ，１３例病人平均治愈时间为４．７个月。术后没有任何并发症。
