ObjectiveTo investigate the diagnosis and treatment value of multi-disciplinary team (MDT) model in patient with gastric perforation combined with hyperthyroidism crisis.MethodWe summarized the experiences of MDT model in treating one case of gastric perforation with hyperthyroidism crisis in the Fuling Central Hospital of Chongqing City on February 2019.ResultsThis patient had a history of hyperthyroidism and didn’t receive systemic treatment, diagnosing as acute diffuse peritonitis and perforation of hollow organs. After MDT discussions and a series of treatments, including anti-infection, control of heart rate and hyperthyroidism, this patient underwent surgical treatment of gastric peptic ulcer perforation, during and after the surgery, this patient suffered from hyperthyroid crisis. The surgery was successful, with the operation time was about 110 min, and the blood loss was about 50 mL. There was no side injury occurred without blood transfusion, and the patient was cured and discharged on 20 days after operation. The patient was followed up for about 1 year, and the general condition and life returned to normal.ConclusionMDT discussion is a very helpful way in the treatment of gastric perforation combined with hyperthyroidism crisis and can give a better outcome.
ObjectiveTo observe the changes of microperimeter and OCT angiography (OCTA) in idiopathic macular hole (IMH) before and after operation, and to explore the correlation between the changes and visual acuity.MethodsFrom January 2018 to January 2019, 41 patients (41 eyes) with IMH who underwent pars plana vitrectomy (PPV) with or without internal limiting membrane (ILM) flap surgery in Tianjin Eye Hospital were included in this study. Among them, 8 patients (8 eyes) were male and 33 patients (33 eyes) were female. The average age was 64.02±6.46 years. The average course of disease was 7.00±8.85 months. BCVA, microperimeter and OCTA were performed. The retinal mean sensitivity (RMS) at 10 ° and fovea 2 ° fixation rate (P1) and binary contour ellipse area (63% BCEA) were measured by macular integrity assessment instrument. The central retinal thickness (CRT), choroidal blood flow area (CFA), superficial and deep retinal blood flow density (FAVD, FDVD), foveal avascular zone (FAZ) and blood flow densitywithin the width of FAZ 300 μm (FD-300) were measured by OCTA. Twenty one and 19 eyes with or without ILM flap operation were treated with 25G standard three incision PPV. The follow-up time was more than 6 months. Paired t-test was used to compare the indexes before and after operation. Pearson correlation analysis was performed for the correlation between logMAR visual acuity and microperimeter variables and OCTA variables. Nonparametric test was performed for paired comparison between affected eyes and contralateral eyes before and after operation.ResultsAt 6 months after operation, logMAR visual acuity (t=－12.33), RMS (t=7.94), P1 (t=3.21), 63% BCEA (t=－3.98), CRT (t=－9.17), CFA (t=8.14), FSVD (t=3.75), FDVD (t=3.88) were significantly improved compared with those before operation (P＜0.001). The difference of FAZ area (t=－1.40) and FD-300 (t=1.95) before and after operation were not statistically significant (P＞0.05). The results of correlation analysis showed that logMAR visual acuity 6 months after surgery was correlated with preoperative logMAR visual acuity, MIN, RMS, P1, 63% BCEA, FSVD, FDVD and FAZ (r=0.432、0.527、－0.410、－0.383、0.349、－0.406、－0.373、0.407; P＜0.05). At 6 months after operation, the indexes of the affected eyes were significantly improved compared with those before operation, but worse than those of the contralateral eyes (P＜0.05).ConclusionsPPV for IMH can effectively improve the visual acuity, retinal function and foveal microvascular circulation. Retinal function and blood circulation changes have a significant impact on postoperative visual acuity.
Purpose
To explore the role of scanning laser tomography in the assessment of macular hole surgery.
Methods
Fifteen eyes of 14 patients with macular holes underwent scanning of their affected macular area using the Heidelberg retina tomograph (HRT). The significance of topographic changes postoperatively were determined in eleven eyes which received vitrectomy surgery. The scan field was set at 15°of the retina and the depth was set to 1.5 mm or 2.0 mm. All the measurements were taken for 3 times and the average value of the 3 measurements was used.
Results
The average hole area was (0.499±0.34) mm 2 and the maximal depth of the hole was (0.284±0.11) mm. Topographic difference analysis of the eleven eyes showed a significant reduction in the height of the retina after vitrectomy. The maximal depth of the hole was (0.063±0.04) mm postoperatively.
Conclusion
Scanning laser tomography provides an objective evaluation of the anatomic outcome of the macular hole surgery.
