ObjectiveTo summarize the recent development of surgical treatment for chronic anal fissure. MethodsThe related literatures on various operation treatment of anal fissure at home and abroad in recent years were collected and reviewed. ResultsThere are many operation treatment methods of anal fissure, includes the closed or open lateral internal sphincterotomy, excision of anal fissure, skin flap plasty, and other operation modes.The different operation methods each has its advantages and disadvantages, but there are a certain percentage of the incidence of complications and the recurrence risk. ConclusionFor what kind of operation method is the most suitable for the treatment of chronic anal fissure is no fixed conclusion.
Objective To evaluate the clinical effectiveness of different surgical treatments for recurrent pterygium. Methods Databases such as The Cochrane Library, PubMed (1966 to 2011), EMbase (1989 to 2011), CNKI (1979 to 2011), VIP (1989 to 2011) and WanFang Data (1982 to 2011) were electronically searched for randomized controlled trials (RCTs) on different surgical treatments for recurrent pterygium, and the relevant references were also retrieved. According to the inclusion criteria, we screened literature, extracted data, and critically assessed the quality of RCTs. Then the meta-analysis was conducted using RevMan 5.0 software. Results A total of 19 RCTs were included. The results of meta-analyses showed, limbal stem cell autograft transplantation (LAT) combined with amniotic membrane transplantation (AMT), LAT alone, and intraoperative using of mitomycin C, effectively reduced the recurrence rate of recurrent pterygium. Statistic differences were found (Plt;0.01) when they were compared with conventional pterygium excision alone or plus AMT. Conclusion Current evidence shows LAT+AMT, LAT alone, and intraoperative using of mitomycin C can effectively reduce the recurrence rate of recurrent pterygium. But this conclusion still needs to be proved by large-scale RCTs due to the limited quantity and quality of the included studies.
Ischemic mitral regurgitation is the common complication after myocardial infarction. Ischemic mitral regurgitation which can be described as the modification of the ventricle caused by myocardial infarction remarkably increases the risk of developing congestive heart failure and mortality after myocardial infarction. The imbalanced dynamic of tethering and occluding of the leaflets or the annular dilatation can result in ischemic mitral regurgitation. We have to diagnose, evaluate ischemic mitral regurgitation timely and perform surgical treatment effectively. It has significant meaning to improve the prognosis of patients.
Objective To investigate the diagnosis and treatment methods of primary cardiac malignant tumors，so as to improve its’ level of diagnosis and treatment. Methods From April 2004 to June 2008, 19 patients with primary cardiac malignant tumors were diagnosed and treated in the department of cardiac surgery in this hospital. Male 11, Female 8.Age of the patients was 40.7±12.1 years(17-64 years). Preoperative diagnosis were occupying lesion in cardiac, malignant tumors were possible. Complete resections of malignant tumors were achieved by cardiopulmonary bypass (CPB) in 3 cases, and partially resected in 1 case, heart transplantation was performed in 1 case, only biopsies were performed in 5 cases. 9 cases (47.4%) lost the chances of operative treatments. Results There were no operative and hospitalstay deaths. Hospital stay was 10±7 d（9-15 d）, all patients were safely discharged from hospital. Two cases suffered from postoperative pericardial effusions，and high temperature happened in 1 patient, these 3 cases recovered by puncture and symptomatic treatment. The pathological diagnosis: leiomyosarcoma in 1case, malignant mesothelioma in 1 case and hemangioendothelial sarcoma in 8 cases. 14 cases (73.7%) were followed up from 1 to 38 months, 14 cases died of tumor recurrence or metastasis, the mortality was 73.7%, 5 cases (26.3%) were failed to be followed up. Conclusion The prognosis of patient with primary cardiac malignant tumor is still poor. Earlier diagnosis and complete surgical removal of the tumor as soon as possible may improve the patients’qualities of lives.
Objective To investigate the advance in surgical treatment of inferior pole fracture of patella and to explore the existing problems and further research directions. Methods Domestic and foreign l iterature in recent years on patella fracture was extensively reviewed, the surgical treatment of inferior pole fracture of patella was summarized by combining the research findings with cl inical experience. Results The surgical treatment of inferior pole of patella fractures included retaining the integrity of the patella and partial patellectomy of inferior pole of patella and extending knee installationreconstruction. There were kinds of ways to retain the integrity of the patella, such as circular wire fixation, tension bandfixation, NiTi-patella concentrotor fixation, basket plate fixation, reforming McLaughl in way and polydioxanone suture netfixation; the latter category is partial patellectomy and extensor device reconstruction. Every surgical way had its advantages and l imitations. Conclusion Most studies tend to retain the integrity of the patella, but some researches have shown that partial resection of inferior pole of patella had no significant effect on knee function. It is important to obtain the security excisional range and elongation range postoperative by experiment for regulating the treatment of comminuted fractures of inferior pole of patella.
To evaluate the present status of treatment of chronic pancreatitis, 116 consecutive patients with chronic pancreatitis during the last decade (1986～1996) have been surveyed retrospectively. The clinical date has been analized statisticaly. Etiology: biliogenic 56 cases (48.3%), alcoholic 17 (14.6%), idiopathic 34 (29.3%) and other 9 cases (7.8%). Better result was achieved in surgical treatment group (81 cases) than in conservative group (35 cases), pain free: 65.5% vs 33.3%. The accumulated five-year survival rate was 56.3%, 92.2% and 78.1% in alcoholic, billiogenic and idiopathic type of chronic pancreatitis respectively. Morbidity and mortality of diarrhea and diabetes mellitus increased at followup. The authors conclude that the chronic pancreatitis patients associated with obstruction of biliopancreatic duct should undergo operation early and will ameliorate abdominal pain.
Objective To improve the diagnosis and treatment of concealed penis in children. Methods From August 1998 to January 2004, 43 cases of concealed penis in children were treated with Huang Lugang’s procedure aging aged 2-14 years (7 years on average). Eight children are obesity. The albuginea tissue were fixed to the lateral Buck’s fascia at the base of the penis. Removal of the excessive suprapublic fat was given in 2 cases of obesity type. Results All patients were followed up from 3to 24 months. The results were satisfactory in 35 (81.4%).The penile contour were dissatisfactory in 8 patients with obesity including 2 patients given removal of the excessive suprapublic fat. Conclusion The Huang Lugang’s procedure was simple and can achieved satisfactory results, but it should be used carefully in case of obesity type.
Abstract: Objective To explore the surgical procedures and cerebral protection and improve surgical results by summarizing the experiences of surgical treatment of 68 patients of De Bakey Ⅰ aortic dissection. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 68 patients (including 45 males and 23 females aged 29 to 72 years with an age of 44.5±17.2 years) with De Bakey Ⅰ aortic dissection who were treated in the General Hospital of Shenyang Command between May 2004 and April 2010. Acute aortic dissection (occurring within 2 weeks) was present in 57 patients and chronic aortic dissection in 11. The intimal tear was located in the ascending aorta in 45 patients, in the aortic arch in 12 and in the descending part of the aortic arch in 11. Thirtyfive patients underwent emergency operation and 33 underwent selected or limited operation. The operations were performed under hypothermic circulation arrest plus selective antegrade cerebral perfusion or right vena cave retrograde cerebral perfusion to protect the brain. Total arch replacement and stented elephant trunk were performed in 25 patients, Bentall operation with concomitant total arch replacement and stented elephant trunk in 16 patients, pure right semi aortic arch replacement and stented elephant trunk in 15 patients, total aortic arch replacement in 7 patients, right semi aortic arch replacement and stented elephant trunk in 3 patients, and Cabrol operation with concomitant aortic conduit with valve and total arch replacement and stented elephant trunk in 2 patients. Results Five patients (4 with acute aortic dissection and 1 with chronic aortic dissection) died with an operative mortality of 7.4%(5/68). The causes of death were anastomotic bleeding during surgery in 1 patient, postoperative low cardiac output syndrome and malignant arrhythmia in 2, acute renal failure in 1 and cerebral complications in 1. During perioperative period, psychotic symptoms occurred in 5 patients, pericardial effusion in 2 patients, hoarseness in 6 patients and poor wound healing in 1 patient. All of them were cured before dehospitalization. Sixty patients (95.2%, 60/63) were followed up for 2 months to 6 years with the other 3 patients lost. During the ollow-up, sudden death occurred to 1 patient with unknown reasons, and 1 patient had pericardial effusion and symptoms improved with relevant treatment. All the other patients followed up had a good quality of life with significant improvement of heart function. Fiftyfour patients had a heart function of New York Heart Association class Ⅰ and 5 had a function of class Ⅱ. Conclusion The surgical treatment for De Bakey Ⅰ aortic dissection should be active. The beneficial results can be obtained with best choice of operative procedures, methods of cerebral protection, and adequate treatment of complications of operation.
Objective To explore the operative methods and effectiveness of open reduction and internal fixation for Bosworth fracture. Methods Between January 2005 and January 2012, 6 patients with Bosworth fractures caused by sprain were treated. There were 4 males and 2 females with an average age of 45.8 years (range, 24-73 years). The time from injury to operation was 1-5 days (mean, 1.8 days). They were all closed fractures. According to Lauge-Hansen classification, 6 cases were classified as supination-external rotation type. The surgical treatments included open reduction and internal fixation by plate and screws. Results Infection occurred in 1 case and was cured after dressing changing; primary healing of incision was obtained in the other 5 cases. Six patients were followed up 15 months on average (range, 12-24 months). The X-ray films showed fracture healing in all cases, with an average healing time of 9.5 weeks (range, 8-13 weeks). No loosening or breaking of internal fixator was observed during follow-up. The average full load-walking time was 12 weeks (range, 10-17 weeks). According to the ankle and hindfoot scale of American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS), the average score was 89.5 (range, 81-94). Conclusion For Bosworth fractures, good results can be achieved by early diagnosis, open reduction and internal fixation.
To investigate the surgical strategy of diabetic foot (DF) and analyze the therapeutic efficacy. Methods From July 2004 to July 2007, 36 patients (22 males and 14 females) with DF were treated, with an average age of 57 years(43-82 years). The disease course of diabetes was 3 months to 27 years(12 years on average) and the disease course of DF was 1 month to 2 years (7 months on average). According to Wagner classification of DF, there were 3 cases of grade 1, 12 cases of grade 2, 10 cases of grade 3, 7 cases of grade 4 and 4 cases of grade 5. The locations of ulcer were ankle and heel in 9 cases, medial part of foot in 14 cases, in lateral part of foot in 8 cases and sinus formation in 5 cases. The ulcer sizes ranged from 4 cm × 2 cm-18 cm × 9 cm. Initial management of these patients included control of blood sugar level, proper hydration, administration of antibiotics, treatment of coexisting diseases, and repeated debridements of wounds when necessary. Ulcers were treated with debridement and spl it skin transplantation in 3 cases of grade 1, with debridement and drainage of abcesses and spl it skin transplantation in 12 of grade 2, with debridement and transplantation of flap in 17 of grade 3 and grade 4, and with transplantation of fascial flap in 5 cases of sinus; ulcers were treated firstly with artery bypass of lower extremity, and then treated with local amputation of foot to avoid high-level amputation and to save more function of foot in 4 of grade 5. Results In 36 cases, wound in 31 cases (86.1%) cured primaryly, wound did not heal in 1 patient (2.1%) and received re-amputation, there were 2 deaths because of infection with multiple organ failure postoperatively. Twenty-nine cases were followed up 8 months (range, 6 -15 months). Eight patients developed new ulcers, with 3 lesions in situ and 5 lesions in new site. Conclusion Surgicalregimen could play an important role in treatment of diabetic foot. According to different grades of DF, there were differentstrategies in deal ing with the accompanied inflammation and ulcer. An active and comprehensive surgical treatment of DF could save the foot, avoid the high-level amputation and result in more functional extremity.
