目的：探讨电击伤的临床特征，手术治疗及疗效。方法：对78例电击伤患者的临床资料进行分析。结果：电击伤多为工伤，病情重，常常多次手术，住院时间长，致残率高。结论：早期积极、延迟的手术，功能可得到最大的恢复，截肢率降低，预后较好；电击伤创面修复以皮瓣、肌皮瓣转移的手术方式效果为佳。
OBJECTIVE: To investigate the characteristics and the pathologic classification of electrical-injury nerve using somatosensory evoked potential(SEP) technique. METHODS: SEP were detected and evaluated in 12 cases with electrical-injury nerve during operation, electrical stimulation was commenced from distal side of nerve where the structure of nerve looks normal under operating microscope, up to proximal side until evoking out a stable SEP predeterminate virtual value. Pathological examination and the following functional evaluation were compared with the values of SEP. RESULTS: At the site of nerve looking normal under operating microscope, perineurium appears normal or slightly thicken. But there are obvious fibrosis and fibrotic proliferation between fascicular and intrafascicular. Vessel plexus is not seen. At SEP stabilizely evoked site, nervous construction is normal, there are visible interfascicular vessel plexus and connective tissue appears loose. Comparing SEP values with pathological section, amplitude and latency of SEP is positively correlative with the quality of nerve. Eight cases repaired with SEP technique to select the anastomosis site for nerve transplantation were followed up, two-point discrimination reached grade III (America hand surgery association criterion) within 62.5% cases. CONCLUSION: SEP technique is valuable method for functional evaluation of electrical- injury nerve which has a complicated pathology. The pathology of electrical-injury nerve can be classified into 4 types, type A: fibrosis of nerve; type B: nerve looking normal under operation microscope, perineurium appears thicken, and there are obvious fibrosis and fibrotic proliferation between fascicular and intrafascicular, vessel plexus is rarely to see; type C: nerve looks normal, lymphocyte infiltration exists and it is obvious that there are many physalis-like, retrogressive construction in the section; type D: nervous construction is normal, there are visible interfascicular vessel plexus, and connective tissue appears loose, SEP always can be stably evoked.
Sixteen cases of profound electricwound at Specific locations were repaired by8 types of different skin flap transfers be-tween 1976 and 1988. Early debridementand primary repair by transfer of skin flapswas done with satisfactory therapeutic re-sult. The typical cases were introduced. Theexperience from the management of thewound, the prevention and treatment of thecomplications wrer discussed.
