Fatal thromboembolic complications following assault in a subject with an abdominal aortic aneurysm

A 62-year-old male with no significant medical history developed thromboembolic complications in the lower limbs shortly after an assault which involved punching and kicking to the trunk. Laparotomy revealed intra-abdominal injuries and an abdominal aortic aneurysm. Death from multi-organ failure and sepsis occurred 9 days post-injury. The discussion concentrates on blunt force trauma to the abdominal aorta, specifically on causation, mechanisms of injury and complications.     

Specific selection of osteosynthetic material in the treatment of thoracic or lumbar spinal injuries by the posterior approach

Summary The authors report 165 cases of thoraco-lumbar lesions with neurological dysfunction. All the patient were operated. They analyze the neurological and mechanical results and indicate the use of different osteosynthesis apparatus according to the type and level of lesions.Harrington's rods seem to give more precise repositioning while Roy Camille's plates give more stability. When the posterior wall of the spinal canal is intact, Kempf's compression rods can be used.Thoraxic spine injuries seem to be an indication for Harrington's rods, while lumbar injuries seem to call for Camille's plates.     

老年与青壮年脑挫裂伤组织NGF的表达差异及意义

目的 研究衰老对脑挫裂伤组织神经生长因子（NGF）基因表达的影响,进一步探讨老年颅脑损伤病人神经功能缺失程度较重的分子生物学机制.方法 收集重型颅脑损伤开颅手术中的脑挫裂伤组织,应用免疫组化和医学数码图像分析技术,观察老年组（≥60岁）和青壮年组（19～59岁）病人脑损伤后3～9 h脑挫裂伤组织NGF蛋白的表达差异.结果 脑损伤后NGF在老年和青壮年脑挫裂伤组织中的表达均明显增强;老年组脑挫裂伤组织中的NGF蛋白表达显著性低于青壮年组（P＜0.05）.结论 老年人脑挫裂伤后NGF表达水平下降明显,提示其受损神经元的修复和生存能力降低,这可能是老年颅脑损伤病人恢复不良的重要原因之一.     

Aesthetic aspects in reconstructive microsurgery

The reconstruction of a part of the body that has lost or inhibited function has been the most important aspect of reconstructive surgery in the past. Because of the existence of better techniques and the patient's wish for social reintegration, the plastic surgeon today is forced to consider the aesthetic results of his work more than in the past. Sometimes microsurgical procedures in reconstructive surgery are the only chance for the patient to be healed or palliated. Experience with more than 350 free tissue transfers gave us the opportunity to estimate the value of a donor flap with respect to the requirements of the receiving site. To satisfy the high aesthetic demands in these cases, it was necessary for the right place and shape the flap to fit as closely as possible, even if further corrections were necessary to achieve a satisfactory result. The transfer of latissimus dorsi and radial forearm flaps to the face and lower leg is discussed in cases of tumorus diseases and severe injuries of young and old patients.Presented to the IXth Congress of the International Society of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery, New York, October 13, 1987     

真皮-脂肪颗粒混合液注射移植修复面部凹陷性组织缺损

目的探索一种新的面部凹陷性组织缺损的修复方法。方法将真皮颗粒和脂肪颗粒混合制成真皮-脂肪颗粒混合液,用2mm脂肪抽吸针注射移植修复面部凹陷性组织缺损。结果本组18例,17例1次填充成功,仅1例因缺损面积过大而补充填充1次,全部病例伤口均Ⅰ期愈合,无感染,外形明显改善。结论真皮-脂肪颗粒混合移植修复面部凹陷性组织缺损,手术简单易行,术后吸收少,效果较好,值得推广。     

Subakute Verlegung der Atemwege infolge eines retropharyngealen H?matoms nach Halstrauma

Mechanical airway obstruction secondary to retropharyngeal bleeding is rare. In most cases such a complication is described after head and neck trauma. Complicating factors include anticoagulant therapy, tumour, aneurysm, infection or major cervical spine injury. A precise initial diagnosis is necessary to avoid a life-threatening situation. Lateral X-ray and computed tomography is essential for safe management. Treatment depends upon size of the haematoma as well as the clinical course of the patient. Smaller haematomas may be observed. Lager haematomas and those that fail to reabsorb should undergo drainage.      

咬肌与颅面形态的关系

目的探讨咬肌与颅面形态之间的关系，了解咬肌体积与邻近骨骼结构的大小及形态的相关性。方法对40例要求改变脸型者进行磁共振成像（MRI）测量，人体测量，头部正位、侧位和下颌骨曲面断层X线检查，测量并计算咬肌体积（MsV），测量头长（HL）、头宽（HB）、面长（FL）、面宽（FB）、下颌角间宽（IB）、下颌骨体长（CL）、下颌角切线长（MAL）、下颌角角度（JA），计算颜面形态指数FI（FL／FB）、头颅指数C（IHB／HL）。用SPSS11．5软件统计分析MsV与HI。HB、FL、FB、IB、CL、MAL、JA、FI、CI之间的相关性。结果MsV与JA呈明显负相关，与CL、MAL、IB、FB、HL呈明显正相关，与CL、FI、HB无明显相关性。结论咬肌肥大可能是方脸面型的成因之一，是影响面型的重要因素。     

小针刀辅助自体脂肪颗粒移植在面部除皱及凹陷充填中的应用

目的探讨小针刀辅助自体脂肪颗粒注射除去额部、眉间、鼻唇沟等部位皱纹及充填面部凹陷的效果。方法利用自制小针刀,离断真皮与其下方的"纤维粘连",然后用自体脂肪颗粒注射除皱和充填凹陷部位。结果本组共68例。修复面积最大约10cm×8cm,最小约1.5cm×0.5cm。随访45例,随访时间3～18个月,效果满意或基本满意。结论小针刀辅助自体脂肪移植具有操作简单、快捷、价廉、安全、无排异、不留瘢痕、术后恢复快等优点,患者易于接受,是除去额部、眉间、鼻唇沟等部位皱纹及填充面部凹陷的有效方法。     

颜面凹陷畸形的临床分型及整复

目的为规范各类颜面凹陷畸形的临床治疗提供参考性建议。方法根据凹陷部位支撑组织的异常或被覆组织的异常情况。临床上将凹陷畸形分为三型：Ⅰ型为骨性凹陷畸形，包括先天性发育不良。后天性局部骨组织缺损、错位或塌陷；Ⅱ型为软组织凹陷畸形。包括局部软组织萎缩、缺损或黏连；Ⅲ型为复合性凹陷畸形。骨与软组织同时存在萎缩、缺损或较严重的塌陷。并依照此分型分别采用游离皮瓣、肌皮瓣或带蒂肌皮瓣填充法。局部组织瓣填充法。带蒂组织瓣加医用材料混合填充法，游离脂肪颗粒填充法。HA人工骨填充法。硅胶假体填充法。有机玻璃填充法，奥美定填充法。复杂凹陷畸形的综合治疗整复方法。为216例患者修复颜面凹陷畸形。结果随访216例患者6个月至5年，未发现严重并发症，外观效果满意。结论此颜面凹陷畸形的临床分型简单、合理。便于临床对颜面凹陷畸形的整复。具有一定的实用价值。
