ObjectiveTo investigate the feasibility of lung tissue flap repairing esophagus defect with an inner chitosan tube stentin in order to complete repairing and reconsruction of the esophagus defect.MethodsFifteen Japanese white rabbits were randomly divided into two groups， experiment group(n=10): esophagus defect was repaired with lung tissue flap having inner chitosan tube stent; control group(n=5): esophagus defect was repaired with lung tissue flap without inner chitosan tube stent; and then the gross and histological apearance in both groups were observed at 2, 4,8 weeks after operation, barium sulphate X-ray screen were observed at 10 weeks after operation.ResultsSix rabbits survived for over two weeks in experiment group, lung tissue flap healed with esophageal defect, squamous metaplasia were found on the surface of lung tissue flap in experiment group. At 10 weeks after operation, barium sulphate examination found that barium was fluent through the esophageal and no narrow or reversed peristalsis, the peristalsis was good in experiment group.Four rabbits survived for two weeks and the lung tissue flap healed with esophageal defect, fibrous tissue hyperplasy on the surface of the lung tissue flap in control group. At 10 weeks after operation, barium sulphate examination found that barium was fluent through the esophageal and slight narrow or reversed peristalsis, the peristalsis was not good in control group, otherwise.ConclusionIt is a feasible method to repair the esophageal defect with lung tissue flap with the inner chitosan stent.
【Abstract】 Objective To review the recent progress of hi p resurfacing arthroplasty. Methods Literatureconcerning hip resurfacing arthroplasty and current achievements was extensively and comprehensively reviewed. Results The new metal-on-metal hip resurfacing arthroplasty made much progress especially in materials and technology, and the results were satisfactory for short-term follow-up. This was increasingly widely used especially in treating young patients. But there were still some problems such as elevation of metal ions which had already aroused publ ic attention. Conclusion The new metal-onmetal hip resurfacing arthroplasty is an efficient method in the treatment of adult hip joint disease and has an encouraging future, but long-term follow-up is still needed.
Objective To investigate the clinical effect of the reverse transposition of pedicled soleus muscle flap in repairing soft tissue defects after Pilon fracture fixation. Methods From May 2002 to June 2006, 14 patients (11 males, 3 females; aging 2050 years) with soft tissue defects afterPilon fracture fixationunderwent repairing operations with the reverse soleus muscle flaps. The soft tissue defects ranged from 7.0 cm×3.5 cm to 100 cm×60 cm. Of the patients, Pilon fractures were treated by internal fixations in 9 cases, open Pilon fractures weretreated by external fixations in 5 cases. The area of muscle flap ranged from 8.5 cm×5.5 cm to 12.5 cm×7.5 cm. Results All patients achieved primary healings, and the grafting skin survived. Twelve flaps survived completely but 2 flapshad mildinfection, which survived after dressing change. Eleven patients were followed up for 3 to 26 months, averaged 15 months. The flap appearances were good and smooth without ulceration. The dorsiflexion ranges of ankle joint were 10-25°, and plantar flexion ranges were 15-40°. The gait was normal. Conclusion The reverse soleus muscle flap is no need to reveal blood vessel pedicle and has constant position of anatomy. It has big muscle belly, convenient to move and circuitation 180°. It is profitable to reduce infection rate and to promote wound healing to raise local osteotylus.
【摘要】 目的 研究使用Bowtie滤线器（F1）后，保证加速器CBCT患者扫描图像质量前提下，如何合理设置扫描条件，尽量降低辐射剂量。 方法 使用Piranha辐射测量仪测量CBCT在使用F1与未使用F1时射线的半价层。设定不同的扫描模式，使用直径30 cm的有机玻璃模体测量扫描剂量，并使用XVI附带的Catphan503模体测量客观图像质量。在此基础上，研究扫描剂量以及图像质量与扫描条件的关系，提出了适合临床患者的胸部与腹部不同的扫描条件。 结果 使用F1后射束的半价层增加了0.77～0.92 mmAl，扫描剂量明显减少，中心点减少了22%~29%，边缘点减少了41%~45%，皮肤剂量减少显著。图像质量随着扫描剂量的增大而提高。空间分辨力受FOV影响较大，但一般能识别1～2 mm的物体，完全能够满足分辨细小骨结构与标记点的临床要求。图像伪影在使用L20时的大mAs下明显。胸部低剂量的CBCT图像如100 kV，M20，0.5 mAs的扫描条件亦可满足临床要求。腹部则需要使用较大剂量的扫描模式，CBCT图像才达到进行配准的要求。 结论 F1的使用在改善图像质量的前提下降低了扫描剂量，使用新的扫描序列能平衡二者的关系。【Abstract】 Objective To explore the influence of bowtie filtration on absorb dose and half-value layer inaluminum (Al) of cone-beam CT, estimate the image dose under different scan protocol, and establish the relationship between the image quality and the scan protocol after using F1. Methods Piranha was used to measure the HVL. Dose measurements were performed with an 0.6 cc Farmer type ionization chamber with a 30 cm-diam cylindrical shaped water phantoms in 100 and 120 kV with a series of mAs and FOV. CNR, noise and uniformity were measured on the Catphan503 images. Results HVL increased 0.77-0.92 mmAl where XVI generally had more penetrating beams at the similar kV settings. Scanning dose significantly reduced, the center point decreased 22%-29%, the edge with a decrease of 41%-45% which meant a very significant reduction in skin dose. Image quality improved with mAs increase. The spatial resolution mainly changed with FOV. But generally can identify 1-2 mm-diam objects, fully meet the clinical requirements of identify small bone structure and marker. Through this clinical investigation, low-dose CBCT images in chest, such as 100 kV, M20, and 0.5 mAs scanning protocol appeared to be an optimal settings. Abdomen image needed a higher dose to reach the requirements of registration. Conclusion Using F1 under the premise of improving the image quality then reducing the scanning dose and using a new scanning sequence can balance the image quality and scanning dose.
Objective To investigate the clinicopathological characteristics and surgical treatment of intrathoracic Castleman disease(CD). Methods Clinical data of 14 cases pathologically diagnosed as CD as analysed retrospectively. There were 6 males and 8 females, with an average age of 29 years(17-58). All were undergone surgical resection or biopsy. Among the 12 patients who had unicentric CD, 11 were performed open thoracotomy and lymphadenectomy with posterolateral or sternum approach, and one was treated by video assisted mini thoracotomy(VAMT). For the diagnosis of multicentric CD, one of the 2 patients had video assisted thoracic surgery(VATS) and wedge resection of the lung, and the other had video mediastinoscopy. Results No patient died perioperatively. All were successfully restored except two complications. One had dyspnea in the second postoperative day, as a result of the softening and collapse of bronchial wall in the entrance of the right main bronchus, which revealed by bedside fiberoptic bronchoscopy. One who had lymphadenopathy in the aortopulmonary window suffered from transient hoarseness after surgery. They recovered after symptomatic treatment finally. Regarding pathological classification, there were 11 cases of hyaline vascular type, 2 cases of plasma cell type and 1 case of mixed cellularity type. 13 cases were followed up for 8-110 months and longterm survive was achieved. No recurrence was observed in the 11 cases with unicentric CD and no relapse was occurred in the 2 cases with multicentric CD. Conclusion Both freezing pathology during operation and paraffin pathology postoperation are important for establishing the diagnosis. For unicentric CD, the clinical symptoms are significantly alleviated and it can be universally cured after operation. Multicentric CD needs multiple therapies after the diagnostic procedure and close follow-up.
