Objective To summarize the assessment methods of anal function after low/ultralow rectal anastomosis in patients with rectal cancer. Methods Domestic and international publications on the study of evaluation of anal function after low/ultralow rectal anastomosis in patients with rectal cancer were collected and reviewed. Results Anal function of patients with rectal cancer was usually evaluated by feeling of discharge, continence, perceptual function of rectum, defecate frequency, and defecation time, anal manometry and three-dimensional vector manometry were used as well. Recovery of anal function in patients with rectal cancer after low/ultralow rectal anastomosis depended on the integrity of anal canal, length of remaining rectum, level of anastomosis, and integrity of mucosa. Conclusions Subjective assessment methods and auxiliary measuring instruments are the common means to evaluate the rectal-anal function. Subjective assessment method is simple and direct, but its accuracy is low; Auxiliary measuring instruments have high accuracy, while their examination costs are high and that of costs are not popular, the new assessment methods are needed for further research.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the long-term effectiveness of patients received surgical treatment under the guidance of “West China Classification” of desmoid-type fibromatosis (DTF) in the shoulder girdle.MethodsThe clinical data of 32 patients with DTF in the shoulder girdle admitted between June 2003 and December 2016 were retrospectively analyzed, including 14 males and 18 females, aged 14-56 years with an average age of 36.8 years. The maximum diameter of the tumor was 7-19 cm, with an average of 11.1 cm. According to the “West China Classification” of DTF in the shoulder girdle, there were 4 cases of region Ⅰ, 3 cases of region Ⅱ, 6 cases of region Ⅲ, 3 cases of region Ⅳ, 5 cases of regions Ⅰ+Ⅱ, 5 cases of regions Ⅱ+Ⅲ, and 6 cases of regions Ⅰ+Ⅱ+Ⅲ. In addition, the involvement of blood vessels and nerves was also taken into consideration for choosing a surgical approach. Finally, 12 cases were operated via anteroposterior approach (group A), 14 via posterior approach (group B), and 6 via combined anterior-posterior approach (group C). The 1993 Musculoskeletal Tumor Society (MSTS93) score (including pain, limb function, satisfaction, hand position, hand flexibility, and lifting ability), Japanese Orthopedic Association (JOA) score, range of motion (ROM) of shoulder joint (including flexion, extension, abduction, and adduction), and complications of patients in the 3 groups were recorded and compared.ResultsAll the 32 patients were followed up 30-190 months, with an average of 94.6 months. At last follow-up, complications occurred in 5 cases (15.6%), including 2 cases (16.6%) in group A, 2 (14.3%) in group B, and 1 (16.6%) in group C. There was no significant difference in the incidence of complications among the 3 groups (P=1.000). Tumor recurrence occurred in 5 (15.6%) cases, including 1 (8.3%) case in group A, 2 (14.3%) in group B, and 1 (16.6%) in group C. No significant difference was found in the recurrence rate among the 3 groups (P=1.000). At last follow-up, MSTS93 score of pain, limb function, satisfaction, hand flexibility, and hand position in groups A and B were significantly better than those in group C (P<0.05), even though no significant difference existed between group A and group B (P>0.05). The lifting ability score in group C was significantly lower than in group A (P<0.05), and no significant difference was found between other groups (P>0.05). The JOA score and flexion, extension, abduction, and adduction activities of shoulder in groups A and B were significantly better than those in group C (P<0.05). The extension activity in group A was significantly better than that in group B (P<0.05), the flexion activity in group B was significantly better than that in group A (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in other indexes between groups A and B (P>0.05).ConclusionTaking a rational approach to fully expose and completely remove the tumor is the key point of surgical treatment for patients with DTF in the shoulder girdle. At the same time, preservation of vital structures and reconstruction of soft tissues should also be taken into consideration. Overall, surgical treatment under the guidance of “West China Classification” of DTF in the shoulder girdle has achieved satisfactory long-term effectiveness.

ObjectivesTo compare the role of problem-based learning (PBL) combined with team-based learning (TBL) methods with traditional lecture-based learning in the clinical probation teaching of bone tumor and explore which teaching method is more suitable for clinical probation teaching of bone tumor.MethodsThe 60 students of the 2013 grade five-year program medical students in West China Clinical College of Sichuan University who were undergoing clinical probation teaching in the orthopedic bone tumor subspecialty of West China Hospital of Sichuan University in April 2017 were randomly divided into 2 groups. The trial group adopted PBL combined with TBL teaching method, the control group adopted traditional teaching method. The general situation of the two groups of students were compared. After the end of the probation, the two groups of students’ knowledge mastery, comprehensive ability and satisfaction were compared.ResultsThere was no significant difference in the gender composition and the assessment scores of the last semester diagnostics course of the two groups of students (P>0.05). After the probation, in terms of knowledge mastery, the trial group’s theoretical test scores (89.13±3.47 vs. 87.03±2.99; t=2.511, P=0.015), teacher evaluation (88.33±4.48 vs. 85.90±3.96; t=2.231, P=0.030) and student evaluation (89.83±2.97 vs. 87.47±2.91; t=3.117, P=0.003) were better than those of the control group. In terms of comprehensive ability, the trial group’s ability in reasoning and induction, information management, goal completion, and communication (17.90±1.09, 18.00±0.91, 18.00±1.02, 17.90±1.13) were better than those of the control group (17.20±1.13, 17.13±1.20, 17.10±1.24, 16.83±1.29), the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference in satisfaction between the two groups of students (P>0.05).ConclusionsPBL combined with TBL methods can improve the effect of clinical probation of bone tumors, deepen mastery of professional knowledge, improve comprehensive ability, and improve teaching quality.
目的 通过对保留不同平面骶骨的新鲜人骨盆模型进行生物力学测试，分析骶骨切除平面与骨盆稳定性的关系，明确骶骨切除保留至何种程度时需行腰骶髂稳定性重建。 方法 选用6具正常成年男性新鲜尸体腰5-骨盆标本，采用200 N增量分级加载，以1.4 mm/min速率平稳加载直至1 000 N，依次测试保留完整骶骨及不同平面骶骨切除骨盆模型的最大主应力、剪切应力、位移及刚度变化，比较各组间的差异。最后测量1/2S1组骨盆环的极限载荷，记录骨折发生部位和骨折类型。 结果 随骶骨切除平面增高，最大主应力、剪切力及骶骨下沉位移在各测试点均有不同程度增大，骨盆的轴向刚度不断减小。当切除平面达骶1时，变化明显，尤其以经过骶1下1/4～下1/2时变化显著，与完整骶骨组比较，差异有统计学意义（P＜0.05）。骶1椎体下1/2平面切除后，骨盆的极限载荷是（2 375.97 ± 162.41）N，骨盆的破坏形态为经骶髂关节或骶椎的骨折。 结论 骶骨切除范围与骨盆环的稳定性密切相关，随着骶骨切除平面升高，残留骶髂关节各种应力急剧增高，骨盆的稳定性明显下降。当骶骨切除涉及骶1椎体时，极易发生骨折，需要进行腰骶髂局部重建以增强骶髂关节的稳定性。
ObjectiveTo analyze the correlation between the trabecular microstructure and the clinical imaging parameters in the fracture region of osteoporotic hip so as to provide a simple method to evaluate the trabecular microstructure by a non-invasive way. MethodsBetween June 2012 and January 2013, 16 elderly patients with femoral neck fracture underwent hip arthroplasty were selected as the trial group; 5 young patients with pelvic fracture were selected as the control group. The hip CT examination was done, and cancellous bone volume/marrow cavity volume (CV/MV) was analyzed with Mimics 10.01 software in the control group. The CT scan and bone mineral density (BMD) measurement were performed on normal hips of the trial group, and cuboid specimens were gained from the femoral necks at the place of the tensional trabeculae to evaluate the trabecular microstructure parameters by Micro-CT, including bone volume fraction (BV/TV), trabecular number (Tb. N), trabecular spacing (Tb.Sp), trabecular thickness (Tb.Th), connect density (Conn.D), and structure model index (SMI). The correlation between imaging parameters and microstructure parameters was analyzed. ResultsIn the trial group, the BMD value was 0.491-0.698 g/cm2 (mean, 0.601 g/cm2); according to World Health Organization (WHO) standard, 10 cases were diagnosed as having osteoporosis, and 6 cases as having osteopenia. The CV/MV of the trial group (0.670 1±0.102 0) was significantly lower than that of the control group (0.885 0±0.089 1) (t=-4.567, P=0.000). In the trial group, CV/MV had correlation with BV/TV, Tb.Th, and SMI (P<0.05); however, CV/MV had no correlation with Tb.N, Tb.Sp, or Conn.D (P>0.05). BV/TV had correlation with Tb.Th, Tb.N, Tb.Sp, and SMI (P<0.05), but it had no correlation with Conn.D (P=0.075). There was no correlation between BMD and microstructure parameters (P>0.05). ConclusionCV/MV obviously decreases in the osteoporotic hip, and there is a correlation between CV/MV and the microstructure parameters of BV/TV, Tb.Th, and SMI, to some extent, which can reflect the variety of the microstructure of the trabeculae. There is no correlation between BMD of femoral neck and microstructure parameters.
The orthopedic bone tumor section is a difficult and key point in clinical teaching. 3D disease models have become a new tool for teaching clinical difficulties due to their intuitive and visual advantages.

Therefore, this article introduces the current situation of clinical teaching in orthopedics, the current situation and challenges of bone tumor teaching, and the exploration and practice of using diversified teaching modes combined with 3D disease models at West China Hospital of Sichuan University, aiming to improve the quality of standardized residents training bone tumor teaching.
ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical efficiency of pelvic and sacrum tumor surgery using sizing balloon occlusion of the lower abdominal aorta. MethodsFrom January 2005 to June 2011, 156 patients were diagnosed to have sacrum or pelvic tumor and underwent surgery in our institution. Temporary balloon occlusion of abdominal aorta was used in 51 patients during the resection of sacrum and pelvic tumors (balloon group). Another 105 patients received the traditional surgery resection (control group). The results of the whole operation time, the volume of blood loss and transfusion, the complication and the total days of stay in hospital in the two groups were compared with each other. ResultsAfter the abdominal aorta was occluded, 92.2% of the patients in the balloon group had holistic resection or edge resection, while the number was 86.7% for the control group. In the balloon group, the average operation time was (171.96±65.16) minutes, the average intraoperative blood loss was (746.86±722.73) mL, and the blood transfusion was (411.76±613.73) mL. The postoperative lead flow was (294.50±146.09) mL, and the postoperative tube removal was within (2.98±1.07) days. Improvement of patients'condition was significantly better than the control group (P<0.05). No significant difference was found in the total days of stay in hospital and the postoperative complications between the two groups (P>0.05). ConclusionUsing abdominal aorta occlusion can effectively control intraoperative hemorrhage, and show the operation field clearly. It also can reduce operation time and control the blood transfusions. Appropriately extended balloon blocking time can obviously improve the tumor removal rate and the safety of the operation.
