Objective To evaluate lumbar laminotomy and replantation in prevention of spinal unstability and peridural adhesion after laminectomy.Methods From February 1995 to March 2001,a total of 169 patients(96 males, 73 females,aged 22-63) with lesions in the lumbar vertebral canals underwent surgery, in which the lesions were removed afterlaminectormy and then the excised laminae were replanted. Results The follow-up for 5-9 years showed that all the patients had no complications after the lesions were removed. According to the evaluation criteria formulated by WANG Yongti，81 patients had an excellent result, 67 had a good result, 19 had a fair result, and2 had a poor result. 87.6% of the patients obtained quite satisfactory results.The X-ray films demonstrated that the replanted laminae obtained bony healing and the spine was stable. The CT scanning demonstratedthat the canals were enlarged with a smooth and glossy interior. Conclusion Lumbar laminotomy and replantation is reasonable in design and convenient in performance, which can be promoted as a basic operation in spinal surgery.
【 Abstract 】 Objective To discuss incidence of the complications in the rectal cancer patients ’ early postoperative being treated with neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with surgical intervention. Methods The rectal cancer patients under surgical therapy being diagnosed definitely, with neoadjuvant chemotherapy under multi-disciplinary team (MDT) or without and firstly being discovered from April to October of 2007 were studied. The complication conditions of these patients 1 month after operation were studied and observed, and the differences between MDT group and non-MDT group were compared. Results According to the condition, 189 rectal cancer patients were internalized. Among all the patients, the distance of tumor to the dentate line were lt;3 cm 38 cases, 3 ～ 7 cm 86 cases, ≥ 7 cm 65 cases; pathological stage were Ⅰ stage 5 cases ， Ⅱstage 122 cases， Ⅲstage 50 cases， Ⅳstage 12 cases. There were 181 cases laparotomy, 8 cases laparoscopic operation; 33 cases stoma operation, 156 cases non-stoma operation. The total incidence of postoperative complication was 27.0% （51/189）. Of all, incision bleeding was 1 case, abdominal (deep) bleeding were 4 cases, anastomosis bleeding were 5 cases, pulmonary infection was 1 case, wound infection were 7 cases, urinary tract infection were 3 cases, abdominal (deep) infection was 1 case, unknown fever were 19 cases, superficial layer wound dehiscence was 1 case, wound co-liquation were 15 cases, anastomosis leakage were 3 cases, rectovaginal fistula were 2 cases; intestinal obstruction were 7 cases, urinary retention were 7 cases, stress ulcer were 2 cases. Follow-up in 2-10 months after operation, there was no death case. The baseline between MDT group and non-MDT group was equal. The ratio of postoperative blood transfusion of MDT group was obviously less than that of non-MDT group （P＜0.05）. Moreover, the operation time of MDT group was obviously shorter than that of non-MDT group, and the difference was statistically significant （P＜0.05）. But the ratio of laparotomy and laparoscopic operation, of stoma operation and non-stoma operation, as well as the types of radical excision operation of rectal cancer didn’t show any statistical difference between two groups (Pgt;0.05). The postoperative venting time, defecation time, intake time didn’t show any statistical difference between two groups too. But the postoperative out-of-bed activity time and the postoperative in-hospital days of MDT group was obviously shorter than that of non-MDT group, and the difference was statistically significant （P＜0.05）. In MDT group the postoperative total complication rate was less than non-MDT group, and the difference was statistically significant （P＜0.05）. Among all the complications, the MDT group had a lower rate of wound infection, wound co-liquation and urinary retention （P＜0.05）. Using multifactorial logistic regression analysis, the risk factor which influenced the postoperative complication rate in MDT group were: postoperative intake time and postoperative hospitalization time. But the risk factor in non-MDT group was only according to postoperative hospitalization time. Conclusion The patients who were treated by MDT, definite operative method combining neoadjuvant chemotherapy or not didn’t increase the postoperative complication rate and risk. So it could be believed that such a composite treatment was feasible and safe in early postoperative stage. But it needs further studies to evaluate the medium- and long-term clinical effect.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the effects of intra-articular injection of sodium hyaluronate in post-operation treatment of the knee. METHODS From January 1998 to February 2001, 4 ml of sodium hyaluronate injection was injected into the knee joint of the 134 cases at the end of arthroscope operation, or the 91 cases undergoing open operation of the knee at the time when the drain tube was removed (treatment group). Five days after operation, the hydrarthrosis was removed and 2 ml of sodium hyaluronate was injected into the knee joint. According to the patient’s condition, injection of sodium hyaluronate was performed once a week for several weeks. Clinical evaluation was made by evaluating pain visual analog scale (VAS) and painless range of movement (ROM) of the joint at every definite point of time. The 85 patients in control group used nothing at the same time. RESULTS The VAS score of patients in the treatment group was significant lower than that of the control group. The period to the maximal painless ROM of the joint was 6 days in the treatment group after open operation, while 9 days in the control group. CONCLUSION Sodium hyaluronate appears effective in relieving post-operation pain of the knee joint.
Ten cases of basicranial repair and reconstruction after resection of malignant tumors in nasal sinuses invading base of skull were reported. Dural repair was performed when the resected basicranial osseous lamella was less than 3 cm in diameter; when the lamella ranged from 4 to 7 cm, bone graft was not required either, the defect was repaired with either fascia lata and pericranium of pedunculated galea aponeurotica or frontal myocutaneous. No leakage of cerebrospinal fluid, cerebral hernia and intracranial infection happened postoperatively.
Objective To investigate the indication, operative approach, postoperative management, and complication of acetabular fracture. Methods Sixty-eight patients (51 males,17 females; age 15-65 years) with acetabular fracture were reviewed retrospectively. Among the patients, 55 were injured in the traffic accidents and 13 were injured in the falls (acute injury in 60, old injury in 8). According to the Letournel classification, 16 had a fracture of the posterior wall, 13 had a fracture of the posterior wall and posterior column, 12 had a fracture of the anterior wall and anterior column, 8 had a fracture of the anterior and posterior column, and 19 had a transverse acetabular fracture. All the patients underwent an operative treatment. Results There was no injury to the nerves and blood vessels during the operation. According to the 1-12-year follow-up for 51 patients, 26 (51.0%) patients had an excellent function, 17（33.3%）had a good function，6（11.8%）had a fair function, and 2（3.9%）had a poor function. The excellent and good rate was 84.3%. After operation, heterotopic ossification was observed in 4 patients, and necrosis of the femoral head in 2 patients. Conclusion Operative management should be performed as soon as possible in the patients with a displaced acetabular fracture. Recovery of the stability of the acetabulum and smoothness of the acetabular articular cartilage is important to the recovery of the function.
ObjectiveTo further explore and discuss the value of laparoscopic appendectomy. MethodsThe clinical data of 200 patients underwent appendectomy in this hospital from April 2009 to December 2010 were collected. The operation time, postoperative hospital stay, cost of hospitalization, postoperative anal exhaust time, postoperative pain score, and surgical complications were compared between laparoscopic appendectomy and open appendectomy. ResultsThere were 8 cases conversion to the open approach in this series. The cost of laparoscopic appendectomy was higher than that of open appendectomy (Plt;0.05); the cases of chronic appendicitis, acute simple appendicitis, acute suppurative appendicitis within 36 h of onset treated by laparoscopic appendectomy had shorter operation time, shorter postoperative hospital stay, earlier postoperative anal exhaust time, and slighter postoperative pain than those treated by open appendectomy (Plt;0.05); the differences in postoperative hospital stay, postoperative anal exhaust time, postoperative pain of acute suppurative appendicitis more than 36 h of onset and acute gangrenous appendicitis treated by two types of surgery had no statistical significances (Pgt;0.05); the operation time of acute gangrenous appendicitis operated by laparoscopic surgery was longer than that by open appendectomy (Plt;0.05); incision infection rate of laparoscopic appendectomy was lower than that of open appendectomy (Plt;0.05). ConclusionsFor chronic appendicitis, acute simple appendicitis, and acute suppurative appendicitis within 36 h of onset, the outcome and advantages of laparoscopic appendectomy are outstanding, the value of application is clear; and for acute suppurative appendicitis more than 36 h of onset and acute gangrenous appendicitis, laparoscopic appendectomy is difficult and with high rate of conversion, no obvious advantages in recovery after surgery but an increase of medical costs, and the application value is not great.
Objective To explore the safety, effectiveness, operation mode and clinical value of the laparoscopic colorectal resection. Methods The clinical data and experiences of laparoscopic resection for 18 cases with colorectal neoplasm from Jun. 2007 to Mar. 2008 were studied retrospectively. Results Among 18 cases, there were 5 cases of rectal cancer, 6 cases of sigmoid colon carcinoma, 2 cases of sigmoid colonic polyp, 2 cases of descending colon carcinoma, 2 cases of ascending colon carcinoma and 1 case of ascending colonic lipoma. Fifteen cases of laparoscopic colorectal resection were performed successfully, including Dixon procedure 4 cases, Miles operation 1 case, radical resection of sigmoid colon 5 cases, palliative resection of sigmoid colon 2 cases, left hemicolectomy 2 cases and right hemicolectomy 1 case. Three cases converted to laparotomy due to adiposity or advanced status of local disease. Average intraoperative blood loss was 110 ml. The average number of lymph nodes dissected was 13.5. It took about 40 hours to restore intestinal function. The average time of hospitalization was 9 days. No one died during operation and no complications such as anastomotic leakage and postoperative hemorrhage occurred. Conclusion Laparoscopic resection for colorectal neoplasms possesses less trauma and rapid postoperative recovery. Laparoscopic colorectal surgery is safe and effective with skill and indication.
Objective To investigate the feasibility and clinical value of combined treatment for lung cancer with cerebral metastasis. Methods From May 1999 to May 2005, twentyone patients diagnosed lung cancer with cerebral metastasis received treatment in our hospital. The management consists of cerebral lesion resection, chemotherapy, lung cancer resection and chemotherapy or radiotherapy. Then evaluate the short-term and long-term outcome. Results No severe complications occurred in hospital. The 1-, 2-, and 3-year survival rates were 75.0%(12/16), 37.5%(6/16), and 12.5%(2/16) respectively. Life quality was promoted significantly. Conclusion Although lung cancer with cerebral metastasis is classified as stage Ⅳ,the effect of combined treatment is favorable because of the special metastatic position. But the choice of the patient is important.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the therapeutic effect of percutaneous lumbar discectomy (PLD) combined with sodium hyaluronate (SH) injection in the treatment of lumbar intervertebral disc herniation. METHODS Forty-eight patients suffered from lumbar disc herniation were divided into two groups and treated by PLD combined with SH injection into epidural cavity (treatment group) or single PLD (control group) respectively. All patients were followed up for 24 months. The therapeutic effects in both groups were assessed and compared according to Macnab’s criterion. RESULTS The patients in the treatment group got much more significant improvement than those in the control group, with shorter therapeutic course and more safety. CONCLUSION PLD combined with SH injection into epidural cavity is more effective and safety in the treatment of lumbar disc herniation than of pure PLD.
Objective To explore the operative result of intrarectal proctoptosis accompanying hernia of pelvic floor due to common outlet obstructive constipation(OOC).MethodsEleven cases of intrarectal proctoptosis with of pelvic floor surgically treated were analysed. Results In a week following operation, 9 of 11 patients’ symptoms disappeared, the other 2 cases recovered after 3 months, functional exercise. Conclusion Functional rectal suspension combined with repair of pelvic, partial sigmoidectomy, surgical elevation of pelvic floor and hysteropexy are highly effective in alleviating symptoms in patients with intrarectal proctoptosis accompanying pelvic floor herniation.
