Objective To investigate the treatment and therapeutic efficacy of intra-articular meniscal cysts by arthroscopy. Methods From January 2005 to December 2009, 9 cases of intra-articular meniscal cysts were treated by arthroscopy, including 5 males and 4 females, with an average age of 33.8 years (range, 24-46 years). Six patients suffered in left knees, 3 in right ones. Just 1 case had trauma history, the others had no obvious predisposing causes. The average course of the disease was 24.2 months (range, 4-36 months). The Lysholm score was (74.2 ± 11.6) points. Arthroscopy showed that the locations of cysts were the anterior horn of lateral meniscus in 8 cases and the anterior horn of medial meniscus in 1 case; all being single cyst (of them, 3 being multilocular cyst). Results All incisions healed primarily with no compl ications of infection and joint effusion. All 9 patients were followed up from 3 to 48 months with an average of 12.7 months. Preoperative symptoms disappeared or reduced and the range of motion of the knee returned to normal. TheLysholm score was (95.1 ± 3.4) points after 3 months of operation, showing significant difference (P lt; 0.01) when compared with the socre before operation. According to assessment standard described by Choy, the treatment outcome was excellent in 6 cases, good in 2 cases, and general in 1 case; the excellent and good rate was 88.9%. No recurrence was found during follow-up. Conclusion Arthroscopic surgery shows the advantages to maintain good function of knee for the treatment of meniscal cyst, it is the best choice for intra-articular meniscal cysts because of its mini-trauma, rapid recovery, thorough treatment and less recurrence. Simultaneously, partial or tatol meniscectomy or menicus repairing under arthroscopy is performed.
ObjectiveTo explore the security and advantages of laparoscopic spleen-preserving distal pancreatectomy (LSPDP) for occupancy lesions in pancreatic body and tail.
MethodsA total of 97 patients with occupancy lesions in pancreatic body and tail who underwent laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy in our hospital from June 2010 to August 2014 were collected retrospectively, and were divided into LSPDP group (n=60) and laparoscopic distal pancreatectomy with splenectomy (LDPS) group (n=37) according to the surgery, clinical effect was compared between the 2 groups.
ResultsThe operations got well in all patients, no one died during perioperative period. The operation time was shorter in LSPDP group than that of LDPS group[(190.83±66.39) min vs. (224.46±83.23) min, P=0.030], but there was no significant difference between LSPDP group and LDPS group in the blood loss[45.35 mL vs. 54.92 mL], hospital stay[(8.38±4.06) d vs. (9.76±4.54) d], incidence of total postoperative complication[23.33% (14/60) vs. 13.51% (5/37)], and degree of postoperative complication (P>0.050). There were 86 patients were followed up for 3-54 months, with the median time of 18 months. For patients with tumor, no one suffered from recurrence, metastasis, and death during the follow-up period, and other patients with benign diseases had an excellent prognosis.
ConclusionFor occupancy lesions in pancreatic body and tail, LSPDP is feasible and safe.
Objective To assess the curative effect of percutem transilluminated with negative pressured on the potaried technique on the treatment of venous ulcer in lower extremity. Methods The clinical date of 300 cases involving 300 legs with venous ulcer in lower extremity, who underwent the percutum transilluminated negative pressured potaried technique using TRIVEXTM Ⅱ potaried system or the percutum transfixion surgical treatment from October 2005 to June 2009, were analyzed. Three hundred cases were randomly divided into potaried group and transfixion group. In potaried group, there were 190 cases involving 190 legs treated with TRIVEXTM Ⅱ potaried system. In transfixion group, 110 cases involving 110 legs treated with percutum transfixion. The clinical indexes of skin infection rate and skin necrosis rate, shrinkage rate of wound area and skin depigmentation rate, ulcer healing rate and ulcer recurrence rate were calculated to assess the clinical curative effect on day 5, day 20, day 120 and day 360 after operation respectively. Results The rates of skin infection and skin necrosis were significantly decreased in potaried group compared with transfixion group on day 5 after operation (P<0.05), the rates of shrinkage of wound area and skin depigmentation were significantly increased in potaried group compared with transfixion group on day 20 (P<0.05). The ulcer healing rate was not significantly different between the two groups on day 120 (Pgt;0.05). Ulcer recurrence rate was remarkably lower in potaried group than that in transfixion group on day 360 (P<0.05). Conclusion It can be concluded that percutem transilluminated with negatived pressured on the potaried technique with TRIVEXTM Ⅱ potaried system can efficiently promote the healing of venous ulcer in the lower extremity, and at the same time it has an ascendancy in lessening skin infection and skin reinjury.
ObjectiveTo explore the clinical efficacy of ultrasound debridement combined with autolytic debridement in the treatment of diabetic foot ulcers.MethodsA total of 60 diabetic foot ulcers patients who were diagnosed and treated in Jinshan Hospital of Fudan University from April 2019 to April 2020 were enrolled in the study and randomly divided into two groups, with 30 cases in each group. The trial group received autolytic cleansing combined with ultrasound debridement treatment, and the control group only received autolytic debridement treatment. The baseline conditions, wound treatment efficacy, number of dressing changes, length of hospital stay, treatment cost, wound healing time, wound shrinkage rate, and the time required for the wound to turn into 100% red granulation were compared between the two groups.ResultsThere was no statistically significant difference in gender, age, duration of diabetes or Wagner grade of diabetic foot between the two groups (P>0.05). The efficacy of wound healing in the trial group was better than that in the control group (Z=?2.146, P=0.032). The number of dressing changes [(11.76±2.23) vs. (17.34±4.43) times] and the length of stay [(18.03±3.73) vs. (25.43±4.43) d] in the trial group were lower than those in the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). The difference in treatment cost between the two groups was not statistically significant (P>0.05). The wound healing time of the trial group [(48.43±18.34) vs. (65.24±19.62) d], the wound shrinkage rate [(78.35±8.34)% vs. (56.53±6.54)%] and the time required for the wound to turn into 100% red granulation [(16.34±2.42) vs. (24.55±3.23) d] were better than those of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). During the treatment process, no patient in the trial group had wound bleeding and had difficulty in stopping bleeding during ultrasonic debridement, and no patient had intolerable pain related to ultrasonic debridement. No patients in either group withdrew early.ConclusionsUltrasound debridement combined with autolytic debridement can effectively improve the curative effect of patients with diabetic foot ulcers and shorten the wound healing time. Therefore, it is worthy of promotion and application in the wound care of patients with diabetic foot ulcers.

MethodsCollected cases of basal ganglia region admitted in department of neurosurgery our hospital from September 2006 to March 2015, 108 cases of hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage patients, randomly divided into two groups:keyhole approach group (58 cases) and conventional surgery group (50 cases).Two groups of patients with perioperative all use the same management scheme, using statistical methods to analyze clinical data of two groups of patients, such as age, sex, blood loss, postoperative epilepsy, drug efficacy and the incidence of adverse drug reactions, etc.
ResultsPostoperative follow-up of 2 years, keyhole approach group 12 cases sufferred postoperative seizure, 1 case of patients with status epilepticus, no death occurred; a total of 10 cases of mono-antiepileptic drug(AEDs) therapy effectively, and 7 cases present adverse drug reactions; Traditional surgical postoperative seizures 22 cases, 9 cases occurred status epilepticus, and five died as a result, only five were effective for single therapy, and 15 cases with adverse drug reactions.Statistical results suggest the incidence of postoperative epilepsy, the incidence of severe epilepsy, prognosis, single drug control and adverse drug reactions between the tuo groups have significant difference (P < 0.05).
ConclusionCompared with traditional craniotomy for removal of hematoma, keyhole approach greatly reduce the incidnce of basal ganglia region hypertension cerebral hemorrhage postoperative complications, severe epilepsy and adverse reaction of AEDs.Therefore, keyhole approach in the treatment of basal ganglia region hypertension cerebral hemorrhage is an admirable way of treatment.
Objective To analyze and compare the clinical efficacy and advantage between two treatments methods for chronic anal fissure. Methods Divided 96 patients with chronic anal fissure into two groups based on the odd and even numbers of treatment order: 48 patients in study group received sequential anal dilation and microwave treatment, and 48 patients in control group received posterior internal sphincterotomy. The blood loss in operation, wound healing time, wound infection rate, anal infection rate, anal control, postoperative defecation function, anal stenosis rate, and the recurrence rate between the two groups were compared and analyzed. Results Blood loss and wound healing time were less in study group than those in control group (Plt;0.01). Anal control was better in study group than that in control group (Plt;0.05). There were no occurrences of wound infection or anal infection, and the defecation function was improved in both of the two groups. There was no recurrence after one year follow-up in both of the two groups. Anal stenosis rate in study group is lower than that in control group (Plt;0.01). Conclusion The technique of sequential anal dilation and microwave treatment can reduce pain, and is simple, effective, and worthy of promotion.
Objective To summarize the experience of the surgical treatment of total anomalous pulmonary venous connection (TAPVC) in 31 cases,so as to elevate the operative effect. Methods The total corrected operation under moderate hypothermic cardiopulmonary bypass were performed in 31 cases with TAPVC. Site of drainage was supracardiac (n=16),cardiac(n=13)and mixed(n=2). Other accompanying congenital cardiac malformations were diagnosed such as atrial septal defect(n=31), patent ductus arteriosus(n=4), pulmonic stenosis(n=1), mitral regurgitation(n=1), tricuspid regurgitation (n=15),etc. Results No hospital death was observed in the early period of operation (30 d). Complication occurred in 8 cases (25.8%), such as paroxysm of nodal rhythm(n=1), Ⅰ° atrial ventricular block(n=1), frequently atrial premature beats and paroxysm of auricular tachycardia(n=1),pulmonary infection(n=2),atelectasis(n=1), pneumatothorax (n=1), left diaphragmatic paralysis and pulmonary infection with tracheal reintubation (n=1),etc. All of them discharged after active therapy. All of 31 cases was followed up, followup time was 2.8±1.5 years. 30 cases were living (96.7%) and 1 case died of heart failure 8 months after operation. 2 cases had auricular arrhythmia with a bad medical effect. 28 cases(93.3%) had normal heart function and they could work and live normally after discharged. Conclusion Surgical procedure should be based on individual abnormality for TAPVC.Surgeons should take care not only of the stenosis of anastomotic stoma,but also of the arrhythmia after operation.Satisfied correction of the abnormality is important and the curative effect of those cases is approving.
Objective To explore the curative effect of surgical treatment for primary liver cancer with portal vein tumor thrombus(PVTT). Methods The clinical data of 227 patients who were performed surgical treatment because of primary liver cancer with PVTT were analyzed retrospectively. Results Two hundreds and seventeen cases were performed surgical resection, 14 cases died from postoperative complications. The median survival time was 17.7 months, and the l-, 2-, 3-, and 5-year survival rates were 61.9%, 37.2%, 21.7%, and 4.0% respectively. There were 40 cases with PVTT ofⅠtype, the l-, 2-, 3-, and 5-year survival rates were 82.3% , 61.7%, 38.6%, and 6.6% respectively,which was obviously higher than those with PVTT of Ⅱ type (n=129, 61.1%, 34.3%, 20.8%, and 5.3%) and PVTT of Ⅲ type (n=48, 46.8%, 24.0%, 9.6%, and 0), P<0.05. There were 84 cases whose PVTT and tumor were resected together, the l-, 2-, 3-, and 5-year survival rates were 67.3%, 43.2%, 28.1%, and 7.9% respectively,which were obviously higher than those patients whose PVTT were removed from cross-section of liver (n= 85, 65.1%, 38.8%, 22.3%, and 3.4%) and patients whose PVTT were removed by cutting the portal vein (n=48, 46.8%, 24.0%, 9.6%, and 0), P<0.05. The l-, 2-, 3-, and 5-year survival rates of 76 cases who received postoperative therapy of TACE/TAI were 75.3%, 53.2%, 33.1%, and 5.7% respectively, which were obviously higher than those patients who were not received any postoperative therapy (n=141, 54.8%, 29.1%, 15.9%, and 3.2%), P<0.05. Conclusions Surgical treatment is an effective treatment for primary liver cancer with PVTT. Surgery should strive for resecting the tumor and PVTT together, and postoperative therapy of TACE/TAI may have a favorable effect on the long term survival rate.
ObjectiveTo observe the clinical curative effect of interventional chemotherapy in the treatment of advanced gastric cancer.
MethodsThirty advanced gastric cancer patients underwent arterial infusion chemotherapy and embolization treatment between January and December 30, 2013. The treatment was carried out every three weeks. We evaluated the clinical results after the third treatment. The clinical improvement was assessed based on alleviation of such symptoms as epigastric pain, poor appetite, nausea, vomiting and fecal occult blood. The tumor size was evaluated through abdominal CT examination.
ResultsAbdominal pain relieved in 19 out of 28 patients (67.9%); appetite improved in 18 out of 24 patients (75.0%); vomiting relieved in 15 out of 16 cases (93.8%); and fecal 9 out of 12 patients with positive occult blood turned to negative (75.0%). The total effective rate was 83.3%, and 8 patients accepted interventional therapy after operation. The survival rates during the 6, 12 and 24-month follow-up were respectively 85.0%, 65.0%, and 25.0%.
ConclusionsInterventional chemotherapy and embolization treatment are effective for advanced gastric cancer, which can relieve symptoms and lower tumor stage. Some patients have a second chance of operation, which can be an effective method in the treatment of advanced gastric cancer.
