颈椎后纵韧带骨化症前路手术的多因素分析

[目的]探讨影响颈椎后纵韧带骨化症前路手术疗效的相关因素。[方法]48例颈椎后纵韧带骨化症患者，行前路手术治疗，随访1～4年，平均2．1年。根据术后神经功能JOA评分改善率，将患者分为预后良好、预后不佳2组。采用多元Logistic回归分析患者年龄、性别、神经功能、症状持续时间、合并糖尿病、Pavlov值、椎管狭窄率、骨化物分型、CT双影征、脊髓高信号、手术范围以及骨化物处理对患者手术疗效的影响。[结果]骨化物的处理方式是影响患者疗效的唯一因素（P=0．0067）。[结论]前路手术彻底切除骨化之后纵韧带，对脊髓充分减压是前路手术治疗颈椎后纵韧带骨化症的关键。     

颈椎后纵韧带骨化症手术并发症探讨

[目的]探讨颈椎后纵韧带骨化症（OPLL）手术主要并发症的原因及对策。[方法]对2002年3月~2006年5月85例颈椎后纵韧带骨化症手术治疗病例进行回顾性分析。其中连续长节段骨化行颈后路全椎板切除减压内固定68例,发生并发症13例;孤立型或短节段骨化行颈前路椎体次全切减压植骨内固定17例,发生并发症3例。[结果]术后获得随访66例,随访期3~25个月,平均13个月。颈后路并发症：颈肩痛8例,给予消炎止痛药、脱水、理疗等保守治疗,术后2~20周患者疼痛缓解,恢复基本满意,其主要原因与减压后脊髓漂移神经根受牵拉或手术操作导致神经根受刺激或损伤有关。2周内缓解者可能与手术创伤局部组织水肿肌肉痉挛所致。术后不全瘫或症状加重4例,经药物及高压氧等治疗,3例恢复理想,1例恢复欠佳,不全瘫发生主要与手术减压后脊髓再灌注损伤有关。术后血肿2例,均经及时发现即刻手术探查血肿清除、激素冲击治疗而获得恢复,术中止血不彻底或手术创面渗血、引流管引流失败是其主要原因。脑脊液漏1例,经脱水、局部适当包扎及颈部制动,于术后3d脑脊液漏停止,切口愈合良好。手术切口感染2例,经抗感染、局部清创缝合等治疗术后20d左右获得愈合。前路并发症：术后不全瘫2例,经甲强龙冲击,神经营养药（弥可保）、高压氧治疗,术后20~30d完全恢复;脑脊液漏1例。内置物相关并发症：前路钛网下沉1例,后路内固定螺钉脱落1例（单枚）。[结论]颈椎后纵韧带骨化无论行后路或前路手术可发生多种并发症,有些是难以避免的,而有些则是可以经过努力预防或杜绝的,术前准备充分,术中小心操作,术后加强管理,是减少后纵韧带骨化手术并发症的关键。     

MR Findings of Intrathecal Chemotherapy-Related Myelopathy in Two Cases: Mimicker of Subacute Combined Degeneration

We report the findings of spinal magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in 2 patients who had undergone intrathecal chemotherapy and presented with the subacute onset of ascending numbness and weakness. MRI revealed a symmetric hyperintensity at the posterior columns of the spinal cord from the lower cervical region down to the conus medullaris level on T2-weighted images, and no abnormal enhancement. The imaging findings are similar to those seen in subacute combined degeneration (SCD), but the serum vitamin B(12) levels were normal in these 2 cases.     

急进性后极部早产儿视网膜病变的临床进程及疗效观察

目的 描述急进性后极部早产儿视网膜病变(AP-ROP)的临床进程及特征,评价视网膜光凝及冷凝对急进性后极部早产儿视网膜病变的治疗效果.方法 前瞻性、非对比性、连续性病例.2006年1月至2008年6月经检查确诊为急进性后极部ROP的患儿8例16只眼.确诊后24h内行间接眼底镜下行视网膜光凝治疗联合或不联合直视下冷凝治疗.结果 急进性后极部早产儿视网膜病变以病变大部分位于后极部1区,所有象限视网膜血管扩张迂曲,病程进展快,若不及时治疗,迅速发生视网膜漏斗状全脱离为临床特征.本组8例16只眼视网膜光凝和(或)冷凝治疗后,9只眼病变完全退化或控制,占56.2%.7只眼病情未能控制,最终发展为4b至5期视网膜病变.结论 AP-ROP进展快,预后不良,部分患儿虽经严密观察和治疗,病情仍进展.视网膜光凝和(或)冷凝治疗能控制大部分AP-ROP患儿视网膜病变的发展,挽救患儿视功能.临床上需要加强观察和随访,早发现、早诊断、早治疗是减低该病致盲率的惟一方法.     

肛门括约肌肌电图监测下双侧L2～S2选择性脊神经后根切断术治疗痉挛性脑瘫

目的为提高手术安全性,在L2～S2选择性脊神经后根切断(SPR)手术时,对肛门括约肌进行肌电图(EMG)监测,并评价其作用。方法在SPR手术监测中,当对S2后根小束进行电刺激时,采用针状电极记录双侧肛门括约肌的反应情况,有明显反应的后根小束予以保留。手术后随访患者踝痉挛改善情况和括约肌功能变化情况。结果所有患者手术后踝痉挛均有明显改善,无大小便功能障碍发生。结论SPR手术包括S2后根时,术中括约肌EMG监测对保证疗效,保护括约肌功能,提高手术安全,具有重要意义。

The Hyperplantarflexion Ankle Fracture Variant

Various patterns of ankle fractures that are not accounted for by common classification systems have been the subject of case reports. The first difficulty with these variant patterns is recognizing all associated pathology, followed by the successful application of stable fixation. The purpose of this study was to describe the common morphologic features and ligamentous injuries of a unique variant fracture pattern, as well as the surgical treatment technique and the short-term functional and radiographic outcomes. Of 121 consecutive unstable ankle fractures over a 2-year period, 7 patients were found to have a similar constellation of injuries around the ankle. A vertical shear fracture of the posteromedial tibial rim was the main feature. Six of the 7 also had a fracture of the posterior malleolus. On magnetic resonance imaging, the deltoid and posterior tibiofibular ligaments were intact in all cases. Fractures were treated with open anatomic reduction of the posteromedial and posterior fragments with antiglide plate fixation. All fractures healed at 2 months without loss of reduction, fixation failure, or surgical complications. The average American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons lower extremity score was 79 at an average of 8 months' follow-up. The common radiographic and morphologic features associated with this posteromedial fracture indicate that it likely occurs through a common mechanism that involves hyperplantarflexion. The characteristics of this fracture pattern have not been fully described previously, but this ankle fracture variant may occur in up to 6% of cases. Unstable ankle fractures should be evaluated carefully for evidence of posteromedial involvement so appropriate treatment may proceed.

Sequential Role of Hippocampus and Amygdala, Entorhinal Cortex and Parietal Cortex in Formation and Retrieval of Memory for Inhibitory Avoidance in Rats

The hippocampus and amygdala, the entorhinal cortex and the parietal cortex participate, in that sequence, both in the formation and in the expression of memory for a step-down inhibitory avoidance task in rats. Bilateral infusion of AP5 or muscimol caused retrograde amnesia when given O min after training into both hippocampus and amygdala, when given or 180 min after training into the entorhinal cortex, or when given 180 min after training into the parietal cortex. Therefore, memory formation requires the sequential and integrated activity of all these areas mediated by glutamate NMDA receptors in each case. Pre-test administration of CNQX 1 day after training into hippocampus and amygdala, 1 or 31 days after training in entorhinal cortex, or 1, 31 or 60 days after training in the parietal cortex temporarily blocked retention test performance. Therefore, 1 day after training, all these brain structures are necessary for retrieval; 1 month later, the hippocampus and amygdala are no longer necessary for retrieval but the entorhinal and parietal cortex still are; and 60 days after training only the parietal cortex is needed. In all cases the mechanisms of retrieval require intact glutamate AMPA receptors.     

The chemotherapy of posterior Fossa tumors in childhood

Conventional therapy for brain tumors, consisting of neurosurgical intervention and radiotherapy, has not resulted in the successes achievable in other childhood malignancies. The role of adjuvant chemotherapy, well defined in many childhood cancers, has not yet contributed significantly to the treatment of children with brain tumors. Chemotherapy of recurrent tumors has produced regressions but no cures. The most active agents identified to date in the treatment of recurrent posterior fossa tumors include cisplatinum, cyclophosphamide and methotrexate. Future efforts will need to focus on the rational selection of drugs for study in limited agent histology-stratified phase II trials, with advancement of active agents into large randomized phase III adjuvant therapy trials.
