Correction of hallux valgus deformity with distal soft tissue realignment and proximal metatarsal osteotomy

Abstract Fifty moderate to severe hallux valgus deformities were corrected with a distal soft tissue realignment and proximal crescentic metatarsal osteotomy. With an average follow-up of 5.6 years, 40 feet (80%) were pain free and 42 (84%) caused no functional limitation. The average hallux valgus angle improved from 38.2° preoperatively to 12.4° at follow-up. The average intermetatarsal angle improved from 15.4° to 6.8°. The arch of motion of the first metatarsophalangeal joint was 75° preoperatively and 62° at follow-up. According to the AOFAS scoring system, 29 results (58%) were excellent, 14 (28%) good, 2 (4%) fair and 5 (10%) poor. The 5 poor results were attributed to recurrence of hallux valgus (2 cases), stiffness (1), hallux varus (1) and malunion of the osteotomy in dorsiflexion (1). The incidences of hallux varus and malunion in dorsiflexion were 8% and 14%, respectively. This technique is valuable in correction of moderate to severe hallux valgus deformities.     

The Usefulness of Magnetic Resonance Imaging in the Diagnosis of Anterolateral Impingement of the Ankle

The purpose of this study is to assess the sensitivity and specificity of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) in the diagnosis of anterolateral impingement of the ankle and to assess the most helpful sequence in making the diagnosis. Twenty-four patients who had undergone ankle arthroscopy were chosen. Twelve patients had arthroscopically documented anterolateral impingement, and 12 patients with no impingement on arthroscopy served as controls. Two musculoskeletal radiologists and an orthopedic surgeon, blinded to the operative diagnosis, retrospectively reviewed selective MRI images in the sagittal, axial, and coronal planes. The sensitivities and specificities were calculated for all 3 reviewers. The Kendall coefficient of concordance was calculated for overall agreement among reviewers. Sensitivities varied from 0.75 to 0.83, whereas specificities varied from 0.75 to 1.00. Using the Fisher exact test of contingency, the sensitivities and specificities showed that all reviewers' interpretations were statistically significant with P = .039, .001, and .012, respectively. The axial images were felt to be most helpful in making the diagnosis. The physicians felt that the sagittal images were helpful in 67%, 83%, and 100%, respectively. MRI is a useful tool that can aid the clinician in the diagnosis of anterolateral impingement of the ankle. T1 sagittal images demonstrating displacement of the normal fat signal anterior to the fibula by scar can be useful and help to confirm the diagnosis.

p53基因(今又生~)联合支气管动脉化疗治疗肺癌15例近期疗效观察

目的探讨瘤内注射或经支气管动脉灌注p53基因联合支气管动脉灌注化疗(BAI)治疗肺癌的安全性、疗效和给药途径。方法经病理证实的15例肺癌,首先在CT引导下经皮穿刺瘤内注射或经支气管动脉灌注p53基因(今又生~),2～5天后,行BAI灌注化疗药物;然后根据病情变化再次进行基因治疗和/或BAI。治疗后常规使用螺旋CT定期复查,评价治疗效果。结果全部15例患者均完成上述治疗,并接受随访2～11个月。有效率(CR+PR)46.7%(7/15),1例肺部肿块消失,6例肺部肿块缩小,3例纵隔淋巴结缩小,1例胸水减少,仅1例观察到肿瘤长大,14例临床症状有不同程度缓解93.3%(14/15)。p53治疗后6例出现发热(38℃～40℃),未观察到基因药物的其它严重副作用,无严重操作有关并发症出现。结论本研究结果初步显示,作为肿瘤综合治疗的一部分,p53基因治疗与BAI联合应用,是一种治疗肺癌安全、有效的方法,提高了BAI的治疗效果。经皮瘤内注射p53是否为一种较好的给药途径值得进一步探讨。     

肺内源性和肺外源性呼吸衰竭机械通气的临床对比研究

目的探讨肺内源性和肺外源性呼吸衰竭机械通气时的肺保护性策略。方法通过25例呼吸衰竭中12例肺内源性和13例肺外源性机械通气临床资料的回顾性分析,对比研究两组呼吸力学差异时对通气模式选择、参数设置和调节的影响,以及肺保护的实施方法。结果在两组APACHE-Ⅱ评分、平均年龄和Vt设置无差异的条件(P>005)下,肺内源性组PEEP/CPAP、PSV、f的需设值均明显高于肺外源性组(P<001)。肺内源性组Pplat、PIP、Raw的监测结果大于肺外源性组,而Crs小于肺外源性组(P<001)。肺内源性组417%和肺外源性组154%因MOF而死亡(APACHE-Ⅱ评分均>20分),组间比较有显著差异(P<001)。结论肺内源性和肺外源性呼吸衰竭机械通气时,实施肺保护的方法不同。前者应首选压力预置通气模式,后者可首选容量预置通气模式。以设置中、小Vt为原则,按个体化的通气需求而设置f和加用恰当的PSV、CPAP/PEEP对减少VILI、病死率可能有益。     

多层螺旋CT肺密度测定对结缔组织病肺问质病变的早期诊断

目的探讨多层螺旋CT(MSCT)肺密度测定对结缔组织病(CTD)肺间质病变(ILL)早期诊断的临床意义。方法对222例CTD患者及50名正常对照者，应用MSCT附带的Pulmo自动评估软件进行上、中、下肺区的密度测定，并同时进行肺高分辨扫描(}-IR(_1、)，分析二者的变化与CTD伴ILL的关系。结果222例cm患者中197例平均肺密度有不同程度的增高，25例平均肺密度正常。157例HRCT有不同程度的肺间质病变，65例HRCT正常。50名正常对照者HRCT均正常，8名平均肺密度有不同程度的增高，42名平均肺密度正常。结论采用MSCT与HRCT对CTD伴ILL的检测结果差异有统计学意义，P=0．000(双侧)，因此MSCT平均肺密度测定对早期诊断CTD伴ILL比HRCT更敏感，更有临床意义。     

Solitary fibrous tumor of the inguinal region

Solitary fibrous tumors (SFT) have recently been established to be of mesenchymal origin. Although there are numerous reports of SFTs arising from the pleura, reports of the tumor arising from extrapleural sites are comparatively rare [Fletcher CDM, Unni K, Mertens F (eds) World Health Organization classification of tumors, pathology & genetics, tumors of soft tissue and bone. IARC Press, Lyon, pp 86–901, 2002]. We report a case of SFT arising in the inguinal region.
