OBJECTIVE To evaluate the clinical effect of total hip joint replacement and hemiarthroplasty in treatment of fracture of femoral neck in old patients. METHODS One hundred and ten cases with femoral neck fracture in the aged, 70 to 106 years old, from Aug 1990 to Aug 1999 were reviewed, 96 cases were followed up, among which 52 cases received total hip joints replacement and the other 44 cases received hemiarthroplasty. All of the 96 cases were followed up for 15 to 112 months, averaged 51 months, and were evaluated in operation procedures, post-operative recovery and joint function according to Harris Scoring. RESULTS The operation time of total hip joints replacement was 20 minutes longer, bleeding volume was 120 ml larger, and post-operative drainage was 140 ml more, in average, than those in hemiarthroplasty. There was no obvious difference between the two types of operation in bed-resting time, length of stay and hospitalizing costs. According to Harris Scoring, there were 38 cases of excellent in hemiarthroplasty (86.4%) and 48 cases of excellent in total hip joints replacement (92.3%). CONCLUSION Both of the artificial joint replacements are reasonable choices for treatment of fracture of femoral neck in old patients, but total hip joints replacement is recommendable for those comparatively younger patients with good systematic status, and hemiarthroplasty is a good option for those elderly with some systematic diseases.
From December 1995 to December 1997, 1 500 patients with gallstones or together with biliary duct stones accepted laparoscopic cholesystectomy (LC) or LC+laparoscopic common bile duct exploration (LCDE). There were 9 had serious complications (0.6%) occured . While the mean age was 54.9 years old. The sex ratio (female∶male) was 1∶1.25. Three cases had major biliary duct disruption, 1 case had stomach perforation, 2 cases had duodenal injuries, 1 bleeding case because cystic artery fail to clip, 1 case had postoperative cystic duct leak, and 1 case with T-tube dislodgement. All complications had been discovered during or shortly after operations. The injuries on the extrahepatic biliary duct with lengths of 0.2-0.4cm, and the gastrodenal injuries sized 0.5-1.0cm. All of the injuries had been sutured laparoscopically without sequela. The one who had postoperative cystic duct leak and jaundice accepted LCDE, proved to have a common bile duct stone. The bleeding cystic artery had been clipped well, and the dislodged T-tube replaced well. The results show if the complications which may be very serious or complex had been discovered shortly after or during the operations, its can be managed with laparoscopic technique safely by experienced operators.

Objective To evaluate the therapeutic outcome of artificial total hip arthroplasty (THA) with collum femoris preserving for hip joint desease in young and middle-aged patients. Methods From March 2002 to March 2005, 26 cases (31 hips) of hip joint disease were treated with artificial THA with collum femoris preserving, including 19 males (23 hips)and 7 females (8 hips) and aged 32-48 years with an average of 37 years. In 31 hips, 17 left hips and 14 right hips were involved. There were 9 cases of osteoarthritis of the hip joint caused by avascular necrosis of the femoral head (ANFH), 7 cases of ANFH, 3 cases of femoral head necrosis caused by dysplasia of acetabular, 1 case of osteoarthritis of the hip joint caused by ankylosing spondyl itis, and 2 cases of rheumatoid arthritis; the course of disease was 2-11 years (5.6 years on average). Two cases of femoral neck fracture (Garden IV), and 2 cases of non-union femoral neck fractures (1 for Garden III and 1 for Garden IV), the course of disease was 5 days, 24 months, and 26 months. The prime symptoms were pain, difficult walk and l imp. All patients were taken X-ray to exclude osteoporosis. Results The right distal femur prosthesis of a bilateral patient cracked owing to excessive amputation of collum femoris, and fracture healed after symptomatic treatment. All the incisions healed by first intention and no compl ications occurred. All patients were followed up for 4-7 years, with an average of 5.6 years. One case had poor hip function because he did not follow rehabil itation procedure, and the others achieved good outcome with normal gait. One case complained of persistent pain 6 months after operation, and was rel ieved by administration of some non-steroidal antiinflammatory drugs and anti-osteoporosis drugs 6 months later. The X-ray films after operation and at last follow up showed good location of prosthesis and no bone resorption. Harris score at last follow-up was 91.31 ± 0.77, and it was significantly higher than that before operation (50.88 ± 0.90), (P lt; 0.05). The excellent and good rate was 93.5% (excellent in 11 hips, good in 18 hips, and fair in 2 hips). Conclusion Artificial THA with collum femoris preserving can retain more bone, be easier for revision, and has an excellent outcome.
Objective To explore the effect of age and gene therapyon the differentiation of marrow mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) of the rats. Methods MSCs from the young (1-month-old), adult (9-month-old), and the aged(24monthold) rats were expanded in culture and infected with adenovirus mediated human bone morphogenetic protein 2 gene (Ad-BMP-2). The expression of BMP-2 and osteoblastic markers such as alkaline phosphatase(ALP), collagen Ⅰ(Col Ⅰ), bone sialoprotein(BSP) and osteopontin(OPN) were assayed during the process of differentiation. Their abilities to induce ectopic bone formation in nude mice were also tested. Results There was no significant difference in the expression of BMP-2 among the 3 groups. ALP activity assay and semi-quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(RT-PCR) demonstrated that there were no significant differences in the expression of osteoblastic markers ALP, Col-Ⅰ, OPN and BSP amongthe 3 groups. Histomorphometric analysis indicated that there were no significant differences in the volume of the newly formed ectopic bones in nude mice amongthe 3 groups. Conclusion MSCs obtained from the aged ratscan restore their osteogenic activity following human BMP-2 gene transduction, therefore provides an alternative to treating the aged bone disease.
ObjectiveTo summarize the research progress of femoral neck system (FNS) in the treatment of femoral neck fracture in young and middle-aged patients. Methods The literature on FNS at home and abroad in recent years was extensively reviewed, and the results of mechanical and clinical studies on FNS were summarized based on clinical experience. Results FNS has good mechanical stability, which can reduce complications such as femoral neck shortening, internal fixation failure, and varus caused by mechanical instability. At present, FNS is mainly selected for comparison with cannulated compression screws and dynamic hip screws in clinical research. The results show that FNS has the advantages of minimally invasive, short operation time, less intraoperative fluoroscopy, earlier postoperative weight-bearing and fracture healing, and better hip function recovery. Conclusion As a new internal fixator, FNS has achieved satisfactory results in the current research. FNS has good mechanical advantages, which is beneficial to fracture healing and the recovery of hip joint function after operation. However, whether FNS can reduce the incidence of nonunion and osteonecrosis of the femoral head remains to be further clarified.
Surgical intervention for chronic thoracoabdominal aortic dissecting aneurysms (cTAADA) is regarded as one of the most challenging procedures in the field of vascular surgery. For nearly six decades, open repair predominantly utilizing prosthetic grafts has been the treatment of choice for cTAADA. With advances in minimally invasive endovascular technologies, two novel surgical approaches have emerged: total endovascular stent-graft repair and hybrid procedures combining retrograde debranching of visceral arteries with endovascular stent-graft repair (abbreviated as hybrid procedure). Although total endovascular stent-graft repair offers reduced trauma and quicker recovery, limitations persist in clinical application due to hostile anatomical requirements of the aorta, high costs, and the lack of universally available stent-graft products. Hybrid repair, integrating the minimally invasive ethos of endovascular repair with visceral artery debranching techniques, has increasingly become a significant surgical modality for managing thoracoabdominal aneurysms, especially in cases unsuitable for open surgery or total endovascular treatment due to anatomical constraints such as aortic tortuosity or narrow true lumens in dissections. Recent enhancements in hybrid surgical approaches include ongoing optimization of visceral artery reconstruction strategies based on hemodynamic analyses, and exploration of the comparative benefits of staged versus concurrent surgical interventions.
Objective To investigate the efficacy and safety of tranexamic acid in patients with the age>70 years during off-pump coronary artery bypass grafting (OPCABG). Methods From June 2014 to August 2016, 340 patients undergoing elective OPCABG were included in this study. All the patients were more than 70 years old, among whom 282 were males and 58 were females. According to the random number generation method, the patients were randomly assigned to receive either tranexamic acid (30 mg/kg, infusion time was longer than 30 min after anesthesia induction; n=170) or a placebo (infusion equivalent volume of saline solution; n=170). The primary end point was chest tube drainage 6 h and 24 h postoperatively. The secondary end points were blood transfusion volumes, incidence of various thrombotic events, duration of mechanical ventilation, length of ICU and hospital stay. Results Compared with patients in the placebo group, the patients receiving tranexamic acid had a significant reduction in chest tube drainage at postoperative 6 h (275.6±105.1 ml vs. 459.6±110.2 ml, P<0.001) and 24 h (685.3±202.5 ml vs. 915.9±223.6 ml, P<0.001). There was also a significant reduction in allogeneic red blood cell transfusion (0.80±0.66 U vs. 1.60±1.30 U, P<0.001) and fresh frozen plasma transfusion (166±25 ml vs. 257±30 ml, P<0.001). There were no significant differences in incidence of various thrombotic events, duration of mechanical ventilation, length of ICU and hospital stay between the two groups. Conclusion Tranexamic acid can significantly reduce blood loss and transfusion in elderly patients 6 h and 24 h after OPCABG and the incidence of thrombotic events will not increase.
ObjectiveTo evaluate whether radiofrequency-assisted associating liver partition and portal vein ligation for staged hepatectomy (RALPPS) is a safer and more effective modified treatment for patients with cirrhosis-related hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC). MethodsRALPPS were performed in patients with HCC and insufficient volume of future liver remnant (FLR<40%). Data of the patients during perioperative period such as operative morbidity, mortality, operative time, blood loss, percent increase in FLR, and interval between operations, were analyzed to assess the effectiveness and safety of the operation. ResultsA total of 8 patients were performed the RALPPS operation, and 6 cases completed both stages, 2 cases of postoperative complications or tumor metastasis did not complete the two phase of surgery. The average first and second stages operative time was (214.3±35.7) min, (266.7±46.0) min, respectively, and the average two stages blood loss during the operation was (218.8±113.2) mL,(501.7±224.5) mL, respectively. The mean preoperative FLR was (26.4±7.1)%, and the mean FLR before the second stage was (46.2±4.6)%. The average percentage increase in FLR during the interval time was 35%-113%, and the mean time interval between operations were (22.2±6.4) days. One case died of renal failure and severe pulmonary infection after two operation. Seven patients were followed-up (11.6+2.0) months (8-15 months). Two patients who had not completed the two-stage operation died within 3 months after discharge. Three patients who had completed the two-stage operation were tumor recurrence in 3-9 months after discharged from hospital and supplemented interventional therapy, 1 of them died,and 2 patients were followed-up to now without recurrence. ConclusionsRALPPS is equivalent to ALPPS for treating patients with cirrhosis-related HCC and insufficient FLR volume.
ObjectiveTo compare the early effectiveness and safety of simultaneous bilateral and staged bilateral unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) in treatment of anteromedial compartment osteoarthritis.MethodsThe clinical data of 31 patients with bilateral anteromedial compartment osteoarthritis who underwent bilateral UKAs between January 2015 and January 2017 was retrospectively analyzed. Of them, 17 patients were treated with simultaneous bilateral UKAs (simultaneous group) and 14 patients with staged bilateral UKAs (staged group). There was no significant difference in gender, age, body mass index, osteoarthritis grading, and preoperative hip-knee-ankle angle, knee society score (KSS), visual analogue scale (VAS) score, and range of motion (ROM) of knee between the two groups (P>0.05). The operation time, blood loss, hospitalization stay, minimum hemoglobin value during 10 days after operation, and hospitalization cost were recorded. The staged group was compared by the sum of two operations. The effectiveness was evaluated by KSS score, VAS score, ROM at 3, 6, 12 months after operation, and patient satisfaction scores were recorded at 12 months after operation.ResultsThe operation time, hospitalization stay, and hospitalization cost of the simultaneous group were significantly lower than those of the staged group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in blood loss and the minimum hemoglobin value during 10 days after operation between the two groups (P>0.05). Superficial infection occurred in 1 side of 1 case (7.1%) in staged group. Postoperative delirium occurred in 1 case (5.9%) in simultaneous group. There was no significant difference in incidence of postoperative complications between the two groups (P=1.000). Patients in both groups were followed up 12-32 months (mean, 24.7 months). There was no significant difference in KSS score between the two groups at 3 months after operation (t=0.896, P=0.392). KSS scores were significanly higher in simultaneous group than in staged group at 6 and 12 months after operation (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in ROM and VAS scores between the two groups at 3, 6, and 12 months after operation (P>0.05). At 12 months after operation, the patient satisfaction scores were significantly higher in simultaneous group than in staged group (P<0.05). X-ray films showed no loosening of the prosthesis in the two groups.ConclusionSimultaneous bilateral UKAs has the same security as staged bilateral UKAs. Meanwhile knee function recovery was better, hospitalization stay and hospitalization cost reduced, and patient satisfaction was higher in simultaneous bilateral UKAs.
