Objective To formulate an evidence-based treatment plan for a patient with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma. Methods The clinical problems were put forward after full evaluation of patient’s conditions, and then the evidence related to the diagnosis and treatment of primary hepatocellular carcinoma was collected from The Cochrane Library (Issue 4, 2010), PubMed (1980 to 2010), Embase (1990 to 2010) and Wanfang Data (1990 to 2010). All the collected evidence was critically assessed. Both patient preferences and physician clinical experience were also taken into consideration in the decision-making treatment. Results A total of 153 relevant literatures were detected, and 13 meta-analyses or systematic reviews, 23 RCTs and 4 practice guidelines were identified. A rational treatment plan was made upon a serious evaluation of the data and the opinion of the patient. After a 6-month follow-up, the plan proved to be optimal. Conclusion The individualized treatment plan according to evidence-based methods for patients with advanced hepatocellular carcinoma can effectively improve the therapeutic efficacy and the life quality.
Objective To summarize the research progress of surgical treatment for anterior shoulder dislocation and combined injuries. Methods The related literature was reviewed, and the surgical treatment options for the anterior shoulder dislocation and its combined injuries were summarized. Results Anterior shoulder dislocation can combine with anteroinferior capsular ligament complex injury (Bankart injury), bony Bankart defect, and Hill-Sachs lesion. For Bankart and bony Bankart injuries, arthroscopic repair or coracoid osteotomy combined with bony graft reconstruction can be performed. For Hill-Sachs lesion, conservative treatment, soft tissue repair, or bony reconstruction should be selected based on the extent of the bone defect. For bipolar injury, the Bankart repair, Remplissage, or arthroplasty should be selected based on the extent of the glenoid defect. Conclusion With the development of arthroscopy and the improvement of the surgical concept, there is a complete set of surgical options for various injuries of the anterior shoulder dislocation. When choosing a surgical procedure, the patient’s specific injury and age, exercise level, and other relating factors should be comprehensively assessed in order to achieve the best results.
Abstract： Objective To summarize the technical characteristics and experience on the surgical treatment of esophagobrochial fistula induced by esophageal carcinoma and explore the safe and effective operation procedures. Methods This report retrospective1y summarized 12 cases of esophagobronchial fistula induced by esophageal cancer between January 2007 and November 2010 in Tangdu Hospital, Fourth Military Medical University. There were 9 male patients and 3 female patients with their mean age of 51.24 years (ranging from 37 to 62 years). Four types of surgical procedures were performed to patients according to their respective conditions: (1) Esophagectomy ＋“tunnel”esophagogastrostomy ＋ pulmonary lobectomy (2 patients)； (2) Esophagectomy ＋ stapled esophagogastrostomy ＋ pulmonary lobectomy (5 patients)； (3) Esophagectomy ＋ colon interposition for esophagus ＋ pulmonary lobectomy (4 patients)； (4) Esophagectomy ＋ esophagogastrostomy ＋ left pneumonectomy (1 patient). Results Among those 12 cases presenting to our hospital, 2 patients died during the postoperative period and the overall morality was 16.67%(2/12). One patient died of acute congestive heart failure on the 4th postoperative day after esophagectomy, “tunnel”esophagogastrostomy and left lower lobectomy of the lung for esophageal carcinoma directly invading the left lower bronchus, and another patient died of severe infection and renal failure on the 11th postoperative day after esophagectomy, stapled esophagogastrostomy and left upper lobectomy of the lung for esophageal carcinoma directly invading the left upper bronchus. Four patients developed mild empyema and 1 patienthad bronchial fistula after surgery, who finally recovered and were discharged after treatment of antibiotics and drainage. The postoperative morbidity was 41.67%（5/12）. All surviving patients were followed up from 1 month to 3 years. During follow-up, there was one death, and the other patients were alive without any clinical events. Conclusion Individualized surgical procedure is a safe and effective therapeutic choice for patients with esophagobronchial fistula induced by esophageal carcinoma.
ObjectiveTo review research progress of surgical treatment of patellar fractures.MethodsThe domestic and foreign literature about patellar fracture treatment in recent years was extensively consulted, and the advantages, disadvantages, and indications of various surgical treatments were summarized.ResultsThe patella plays an important role in knee flexion and extension activities, and the fracture significantly affects the patient’s quality of life. At present, the surgical methods include open reduction and internal fixation and patella resection. The internal fixation methods include ring/binding patella fixation, tension band wiring and improved technology, tension band wiring combined with other methods, screw fixation (including absorbable screws), steel plate fixation, and patella fixator fixation. Each surgical method has different indications, advantages, and disadvantages. Choosing an appropriate treatment plan plays a crucial role in clinical prognosis.ConclusionThere are many surgical treatments for patellar fractures. In order to improve the effectiveness and reduce postoperative complications, it is necessary to choose the most appropriate treatment strategy for the type of fracture.
Objective To summarize clinical features, imaging findings, diagnosis, treatment, and prognosis of patients with hepatic focal nodular hyperplasia. Method The clinical data of patients with hepatic focal nodular hyperplasia who underwent hepatectomy from July 2014 to July 2016 in the Xiangya Hospital of Central South University were analyzed retrospectively. Results There were 12 males and 19 females in the 31 patients with hepatic focal nodular hyperplasia, the male-to-female ratio was 1∶1.58. The age was from 15 to 67 years old with (39.7±11.5) years old. Physical examination found 21 cases, there were symptoms in 10 cases. Laboratory examination: only 2 patients with long-term drinking history had mild AST abnormality, HBsAgs of 6 cases were positive, CA19-9 level of one patient was slightly increased (40.54 kU/L). Thirteen patients with hepatic focal nodular hyperplasia were diagnosed by imaging examination, the diagnostic rate of MRI was significantly higher than that of color Doppler ultrasound (P<0.05) or CT (P<0.05). The diameter of the lesions ranged from 2 cm to 11 cm with (4.6±2.1) cm. All lesions were resected, including 13 cases by laparoscopic hepatectomy, and 18 cases by laparotomy. Compared with by the laparotomy, the intraoperative blood loss was less (P<0.05), the hospital stay and intestinal exhaust time were shorter (P<0.05) by the laparoscopic hepatectomy. Twenty-nine patients were followed up from 3 to 24 months, no patient died, the quality of life was better, no recurrence and metastasis happened. Conclusions Hepatic focal nodular hyperplasia is benign lesion, it has a good prognosis, generally without clinical symptoms, its laboratory feature has no abnormality. The combination of multiple imagings and pathological diagnosis could improve diagnosis rate. Surgical resection should be performed for suspected malignant tumor or other hepatic occupying lesions. Laparoscopic surgery has some advantages of quick recovery and less bleeding for it.
ObjectiveTo investigate the technique and short-term effectiveness of the umbrella-shaped memory alloy femoral head support device (umbrella-shaped support device for short) for the treatment of avascular necrosis of femoral head (ANFH). MethodsThe umbrella-shaped support device was fabricated with Ni-Ti alloy, and its biomechanics characteristics were tested by three-dimensional finite element analysis with pro/mechanica software. Between October 2009 and December 2012, 10 patients (18 hips) with ANFH were treated. There were 7 males (12 hips) and 3 females (6 hips), aged 21-53 years (mean, 40.6 years). The disease duration was 1-5 years (mean, 3.3 years). According to Ficat staged criteria, 10 hips were rated as stage Ⅱ, 6 hips as stage Ⅲ, and 2 hips as stage IV. Microtrauma methods were used to erase the necrotic tissue of the femoral head, and the umbrella-shaped support device, autogenous iliac bone graft, and artificial bone were implanted to support the collapsed femoral head. ResultsThree-dimensional finite element analysis showed that the largest stress of umbrella-shaped support device was 1 500 MPa and the largest displacement was 1.75 mm. Operation was successfully completed in the other 10 patients (17 hips) except 1 failure hip (total hip arthroplasty was performed after 6 months). The average follow-up period was 19.7 months (range, 15-26 months). At last follow-up, the results were excellent in 5 hips, good in 9 hips, fair in 2 hips, and poor in 1 hip; the excellent and good rate was 82.35%. The Ficat stage had no change when compared with preoperative stages. ConclusionThe advantages of the umbrella-shaped support device for the treatment of ANFH are to thoroughly remove the sequestrum, to rebuild blood circulation of the femoral head, to increase the machinery supporting of subchondral bone in weight-bearing area of femoral head, and to decrease the localized stress, and it has good short-term effectiveness, but long-term effectiveness needs further observation.
ObjectiveTo determine the effectiveness of continuous intercostal nerve block for pain relief after thoracotomy.MethodsFrom November 2017 to October 2018, 120 patients who received thoracotomy procedure in our hospital were collected, including 60 males and 60 females aged 40-77 (58.10±7.00) years. The patients were randomly allocated into three groups by digital table including a continuous intercostal nerve block group (group A, n=40), a single intercostal nerve block group (group B, n=40), and an epidural analgesia group (group C, n=40). All the groups received the same basic analgesia. The pain scores and rescue analgesic doses were compared.ResultsOn postoperative day (POD) 0, all groups achieved effective pain control, and the visual analogue score was 2.02±0.39 points in the group A, 2.13±0.75 points in the group B and 2.03±0.69 points in the group C (P>0.05). On POD 0-2 and POD 3-4 (without basement analgesia), there was no significant difference between the group A and group C in the pain scores (2.08±0.28 points vs. 1.93±0.53 points, 3.20±0.53 points vs. 3.46±0.47 points, P>0.05), however, the difference between POD 0-2 and POD 3-4 in each group was stastically different (group A, 2.08±0.28 points vs. 3.20±0.53 points; group B, 2.42±0.73 points vs. 5.45±0.99 points; group C 1.93±0.53 points vs. 3.46±0.47 points, P<0.05). In terms of the rescue analgesic doses, there was no significant difference between the group A and group C (220.00±64.08 mg vs. 225.38±78.85 mg, P>0.05); it was larger in the group B than that in the group A and group C (343.33±119.56 mg vs. 220.00±64.08 mg; 343.33±119.56 mg vs. 225.38±78.85 mg, P<0.05).ConclusionMultimodal analgesia is an optimal choice in the initial stage after thoracotomy surgery. Continuous intercostal nerve block is an effective way to pain management in patients with thoracotomy.
