ObjectiveTo formulate the classification criteria of femoral intertrochanteric fractures based on irreducibility or not in order to predict the difficulty of fracture recovery.MethodsA clinical data of 244 patients with closed femoral intertrochanteric fractures admitted between January 2017 and March 2020 was retrospectively analyzed. There were 116 males and 128 females with an average age of 77.9 years (range, 45-100 years). The cause of injury included falling in 190 cases, traffic accident in 36 cases, smashing in 13 cases, and falling from height in 5 cases. The time from injury to operation was 1-14 days (mean, 3.6 days). According toAO/Orthopaedic Trauma Association (AO/OTA) classification, the fractures were classified as type 31-A1 in 38 cases, type 31-A2 in 160 cases, and type 31-A3 in 46 cases. According to whether the recovery difficulty occurred after intraoperative closed traction reset, the patients were divided into reducible-group and irreducible-group; combined with the literature and preoperative imaging data of two groups, the classification criteria of femoral intertrochanteric fractures was formulated based on the irreducibility or not. The 244 fractures were classified by the doctors who did not attend the operation according to the classification criteria, predicted the difficulty of fracture reduction, and compared with the actual intraoperative reduction situation.ResultsThe 244 patients were divided into reducible-group (n=164, 67.21%) and irreducible-group (n=80, 32.79%) according to the intraoperative difficulty of reduction. Comparing the imaging data and characteristics of the two groups, and formulating the classification criteria of femoral intertrochanteric fractures based on irreducibility or not, the fractures were mainly divided into two categories of irreducibility and reducibility. The fractures of irreducibility category was divided into typesⅠ-Ⅴ, among which type Ⅲ was divided into subtypes 1-4; the fractures of reducibility category was divided into typesⅠand Ⅱ. Compared with the actual intraoperative evaluation results, the total accuracy rate of the doctors who did not attend the operation was 81.15% (198/244) based on the classification criteria of femoral intertrochanteric fractures. The accuracy rate of irreducibility category was 65.74% (71/108), and the reducibility category was 93.38% (127/136). All patients were followed up 13-25 months, with an average of 17.6 months. All fractures healed except 2 cases died of infection.ConclusionThe classification criteria of femoral intertrochanteric fractures based on irreducibility or not can accurately predict the reducible cases preoperatively, and most of the irreducible cases can be correctly predicted in a wider way. But the classification criteria still need to be further improved and supplemented.
This article reviews the development and progress in the field of limb salvage treatment, surgical techniques, and function reconstruction of pelvic malignant tumors in China in the past 30 years. Based on the surgical classification of pelvic tumor resection in different parts, the development of surgical techniques and bone defect repair and reconstruction methods were described in detail. In recent years, in view of the worldwide problem of biological reconstruction after pelvic tumor resection, Chinese researchers have systematically proposed the repair and reconstruction methods and prosthesis design for bone defects after resection of different parts for the first time in the world. In addition, a systematic surgical classification (Beijing classification) was first proposed for the difficult situation of pelvic tumors involving the sacrum, as well as the corresponding surgical plan and repair and reconstruction methods. Through unremitting efforts, the limb salvage rate of pelvic malignant tumors in China has reached more than 80%, which has preserved limbs and restored walking function for the majority of patients, greatly reduced surgical complications, and achieved internationally remarkable results.

Objective To observe the prognosis of visual acuity (VA) of patients with different classification of polypoidal choroidal vasculopathy (PCV). Methods Sixty-seven PCV patients (68 eyes) diagnosed by fundus photography, fundus fluorescein angiography, indocyanine green angiography (ICGA) and ocular coherence tomography were enrolled in this retrospective study. The patients were classified into static, exudative, small hemorrhage and large hemorrhage according to activity and pathological characteristics of lesions. The patients were classified into aciniform, single or several single, combined branching choroidal vascular network (BVN) according to morphological characteristics and combination with BVN of lesions on ICGA. The patients also were classified into macular, vascular arcade, peripapillary and mixing zone according to distribution of lesions. The VA of all the types were observed. Results There were 16, 19, 19, 14 eyes in the type of static, exudative, small hemorrhage and large hemorrhage PCV, which with logMAR VA of 0.34plusmn;0.52, 0.70plusmn;0.98, 0.60plusmn;0.50, 0.91plusmn;0.75 respectively. The VA of static PCV patients was better than that in exudative, small hemorrhage and large hemorrhage PCV patients (q=4.75, 4.26, 5.13; P<0.05). There was no significant difference of VA between exudative and small hemorrhage PCV patients (q=0.98, P>0.05). There were 22, 38 and eight eyes in the type of aciniform, single or several single, combined BVN PCV, which with logMAR VA of 0.52plusmn;0.55, 0.59plusmn;0.43, 0.80plusmn;0.95 respectively. The VA of combined BVN PCV patients was worse than that in aciniform and single or several single PCV patients (q=3.81, 3.02;P<0.05). There were 34, 13, 8 and 13 eyes in the type of macular, vascular arcade, peripapillary and mixing zone PCV, which with logMAR VA of 0.78plusmn;0.43, 0.57plusmn;0.37, 0.38plusmn;0.27, 0.74plusmn;0.41 respectively. The VA of macular PCV patients was less than that in vascular arcade and peripapillary PCV patients (q=4.61,5.11;P<0.05). There was no significant difference of VA between macula and mixing zone PCV patients (q=0.73,P>0.05). Conclusions The VA of PCV patients is variable.It is related to activity and pathological characteristics of lesions, morphological characteristics and combination with BVN of lesions on ICGA, and distribution of lesions.
Objective To analyze the femoral head collapse and the operation of osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) in different Japanese Investigation Commitee (JIC) types, in order to summarize the prognostic rules of each type of ONFH, and explore the clinical significance of CT lateral subtypes based on reconstruction of necrotic area of C1 type and verify their clinical effect. Methods A total of 119 patients (155 hips) with ONFH between May 2004 and December 2016 were enrolled in the study. The total hips consisted of 34 hips in type A, 33 in type B, 57 in type C1, and 31 in type C2, respectively. There was no significant difference in age, gender, affected side, or type of ONFH of the patients with differenct JIC types (P>0.05). The 1-, 2-, and 5-year femoral head collapse and operation of different JIC types were analyzed, as well as the survival rate (with femoral head collapse as the end point) of hip joint between different JIC types, hormonal/non-hormonal ONFH, asymptomatic and symptomatic (pain duration >6 months or ≤6 months), and combined preserved angle (CPA) ≥118.725° and CPA<118.725°. JIC types with significant differences in subgroup surgery and collapse and with research value were selected. According to the location of the necrotic area on the surface of the femoral head, the JIC classification was divided into 5 subtypes in the lateral CT reconstruction, and the contour line of the necrotic area was extracted and matched to the standard femoral head model, and the necrosis of the five subtypes was presented by thermography. The 1-, 2-, and 5-year outcomes of femoral head collapse and operation in different lateral subtypes were analyzed, and the survival rates (with collapse of the femoral head as the end point) between CPA≥118.725° and CPA<118.725° hip in patients with this subtype were compared, as well as the survival rates of different lateral subtypes (with collapse and surgery as the end points, respectively). ResultsThe femoral head collapse rate and operation rate in the 1-, 2-, and 5-year were significantly higher in patients with JIC C2 type than in patients with other hip types (P<0.05), while in patients with JIC C1 type than in patients with JIC types A and B (P<0.05). The survival rate of patients with different JIC types was significantly different (P<0.05), and the survival rate of patients with JIC types A, B, C1, and C2 decreased gradually. The survival rate of asymptomatic hip was significantly higher than that of symptomatic hip, and the survival rate of CPA≥118.725° was significantly higher than that of CPA<118.725° (P<0.05). The lateral CT reconstruction of type C1 hip necrosis area was selected for further classification, including type 1 in 12 hips, type 2 in 20 hips, type 3 in 9 hips, type 4 in 9 hips, and type 5 in 7 hips. There were significant differences in the femoral head collapse rate and the operation rate among the subtypes after 5 years of follow-up (P<0.05). The collapse rate and operation rate of types 4 and 5 were 0; the collapse rate and operation rate of type 3 were the highest; the collapse rate of type 2 was high, but the operation rate was lower than that of type 3; the collapse rate of type 1 was high, but the operation rate was 0. In JIC type C1 patients, the survival rate of the hip joint with CPA≥118.725° was significantly higher than that with CPA<118.725° (P<0.05). In the follow-up with femoral head collapse as the end point, the survival rates of types 4 and 5 were all 100%, while the survival rates of types 1, 2, and 3 were all 0, and the difference was significant (P<0.05). The survival rate of types 1, 4, and 5 was 100%, of type 3 was 0, and of type 2 was 60%, showing significant difference (P<0.05). Conclusion JIC types A and B can be treated by non-surgical treatment, while type C2 can be treated by surgical treatment with hip preservation. Type C1 was classified into 5 subtypes by CT lateral classification, type 3 has the highest risk of femoral head collapse, types 4 and 5 have low risk of femoral head collapse and operation, type 1 has high femoral head collapse rate but low risk of operation; type 2 has high collapse rate, but the operation rate is close to the average of JIC type C1, which still needs to be further studied.
ObjectiveTo summarize the current advancement of adenocarcinoma of the esophagogastric junction (AEG) and improve the knowledge and cognition about AEG and find a feasible treatment strategy.Method
Relevant literatures about current advancement of AEG published domestically and abroad recently were collected and reviewed. Results
AEG had obvious differences from other parts of stomach tumors in anatomy, physiology, and pathology. The study of AEG in definition, biology origin, classification, lymph node metastasis and other aspects had basically reached a consensus. But for the surgical approach, the extent of resection, lymph node dissection or the way of the digestive tract reconstruction was controversial for a long time.
Conclusions
AEG as a kind of independent disease is increasing hazard to human health.By far, the most effective treatment is surgical resection, and how to choose the surgical method needs to be further researched.
Objective To develop a deep learning system for CT images to assist in the diagnosis of thoracolumbar fractures and analyze the feasibility of its clinical application. Methods Collected from West China Hospital of Sichuan University from January 2019 to March 2020, a total of 1256 CT images of thoracolumbar fractures were annotated with a unified standard through the Imaging LabelImg system. All CT images were classified according to the AO Spine thoracolumbar spine injury classification. The deep learning system in diagnosing ABC fracture types was optimized using 1039 CT images for training and validation, of which 1004 were used as the training set and 35 as the validation set; the rest 217 CT images were used as the test set to compare the deep learning system with the clinician’s diagnosis. The deep learning system in subtyping A was optimized using 581 CT images for training and validation, of which 556 were used as the training set and 25 as the validation set; the rest 104 CT images were used as the test set to compare the deep learning system with the clinician’s diagnosis. Results The accuracy and Kappa coefficient of the deep learning system in diagnosing ABC fracture types were 89.4% and 0.849 (P<0.001), respectively. The accuracy and Kappa coefficient of subtyping A were 87.5% and 0.817 (P<0.001), respectively. Conclusions The classification accuracy of the deep learning system for thoracolumbar fractures is high. This approach can be used to assist in the intelligent diagnosis of CT images of thoracolumbar fractures and improve the current manual and complex diagnostic process.
ObjectiveTo report an improved classification system of Kümmell’s disease and its clinical application.MethodsBased on CT and MRI, an improved classification system of Kümmell’s disease was proposed in terms of the integrity of sagittal endplate, the integrity of posterior wall of vertebral body, and the degree of vertebral compression. Between January 2011 and March 2018, the improved classification system was used to evaluate and guide the treatment of 78 patients with Kümmell’s disease. There were 13 males and 65 females. The mean age was 69.1 years (range, 54-85 years). The mean disease duration was 4.0 months (range, 1-8 months). The mean T value of bone mineral density was ?3.66 (range, ?3.86- ?3.34).The fractures located at thoracic vertebrae in 47 cases and lumbar vertebrae in 31 cases. According to the modified classification system of Kümmell’s disease, there were 11 cases of type A1, 13 cases of type A2, 2 cases of type A3, 10 cases of type B1, 18 cases of type B2, 4 cases of type B3, 4 cases of type C1, 5 cases of type C2, and 11 cases of type C3. According to the classification results, the patients of types A and B were treated with percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP), while the patients of type C were treated with PKP or intra- vertebral fixation according to the degree of vertebral reduction. Visual analogue scale (VAS) score and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) were used to evaluate clinical efficacy. The heights of the anterior, middle, and posterior edges of the vertebrae and the Cobb angle were measured to evaluate the reduction of the injured vertebrae and the improvement of kyphosis deformity. The complications were recorded.ResultsThe statistical analysis showed that the improved classification system has good consistency. All patients were followed up 12-36 months (mean, 24.3 months). The heights of anterior, middle, and posterior edges of the vertebrae, Cobb angle, VAS score, and ODI of all types of patients at last follow-up showed significant differences when compared with those before operation (P<0.05). After operation, 4 patients of type A2 had different degree of vertebral height loss; 2 patients of type B2, 3 patients of type C1, and 2 patients of type C2 developed asymptomatic bone cement leakage during PKP; 2 patients of type B3 and 3 patients of type C2 underwent percutaneous internal fixation and vertebral augmentation due to bone cement loosening.ConclusionThe modified classification system of Kümmell’s disease can be used to guide treatment of Kümmell’s disease, but the number of clinical application cases is limited, and further application and observation are needed.
