ObjectiveTo introduce the surgical method and effectiveness of repairing skin and soft tissue defect in the palm or dorsum of the hand and forearm with epigastric bilobed flap. MethodsBetween October 2010 and December 2013, 4 male patients with skin and soft tissue defect in the palm or dorsum of the hand and forearm were treated, aged from 36 to 62 years. Of them, 3 cases had degloving injury caused by machines and 1 case had necrosis of fingers and skin after surgery of crush injury. The time from injury to hospitalization was from 3 hours to 15 days. Among the 4 cases, the size of palmar defect was 7 cm×4 cm to 16 cm×6 cm, and the size of dorsal defect was 10 cm×7 cm to 20 cm×10 cm. The epigastric bilobed flap was designed based on the axial vessel which was formed by inferior epigastric artery, superior epigastric artery, and intercostals arteries. The size of flap ranged from 12 cm×4 cm to 18 cm×6 cm in the vertical direction, 15 cm×8 cm to 22 cm×11 cm in the oblique direction. The donor site was directly closed. The pedicles were cut at 22 to 24 days after repairing operation. ResultsAll the flaps survived well with the wound healing by first intention. Four patients were followed up 3 months to 1 year and 2 months. The other flaps had good appearance and texture except 1 bulky flap. The flap sensation basically restored to S2-S3. The function of the hands recovered well. ConclusionSkin and soft tissue defect in the palm or dorsum of the hand and forearm can be repaired with the epigastric bilobed flap, because it has such advantages as big dermatomic area and adequate blood supply. Besides, the operation is practical, safe, and simple.
Objective To explore teaching effects of case-based learning (CBL) in abdominal physical examination in diagnostics. Methods Among 83 undergraduates in grade 2007 and in major of 8-year clinical medicine were randomly divided into two groups. Under the same conditions, 41 in the CBL group were taught with CBL method, while the other 42 in the control group were taught with traditional teaching method. Their scores in standard patient (SP) practice assessment of abdominal physical examination, examination of abnormal abdominal signs, ability to analyze and write medical records, and right answers to abdominal examination in final exam were compared. Meanwhile, questionnaire surveys were distributed to them after class. Results There was no significant difference between the two groups in the scores of SP practice assessment or medical record writing and analyzing, but the CBL group was obviously superior to the control group in the tests of abnormal abdominal signs and the right answers to abdominal examination in final exam (Plt;0.05). The questionnaire surveys revealed that the CBL group obviously scored higher in the following 3 items: increase the learning interest and commitment, strengthen the ability to analyze and solve problems, and improve the ability to combine theory and practice (Plt;0.05). Conclusion CBL method has an obvious advantage to improve the teaching quality in abdominal physical examination in diagnostics.
Objective To evaluate the effects of a preoperative pain education program on patients’ knowledge of postoperative pain management, measures taken for such pain management and the actual postoperative pain. Methods A total of 84 patients undergoing abdominal surgery were non-randomly divided into two groups, 42 in each group. Patients in group A received routine preoperative care and 30 minutes of education about pain management, while patients in group B received routine preoperative care only. All patients completed the Postoperative Pain Management Questionnaire on the second postoperative day. Results Patients in group A achieved higher scores for their knowledge about postoperative pain management than those in group B (Plt;0.05). More patients in group A took non-medical pain relief methods after surgery (Plt;0.05); and patients in group A were able to use the PCA pump more correctly than those in group B (Plt;0.05). No significant differences were observed between the two groups in the frequency of asking for analgesics or their pain score when they requested analgesics (Pgt;0.05). The average score for postoperative pain was lower for group A compared to group B (Plt;0.05). Conclusions A program of preoperative pain education can improve patients’ knowledge of postoperative pain management and encourage them to participate actively in such pain management, so as to further relieve the postoperative pain.

Methods A total of 121 patients with B-PLG diagnosed by CDU combined with HFU between January 2008 and November 2011 were randomly selected. All of the patients underwent the surgery and had the record of surgical pathological examination results, which were compared with the results of the ultrasonography in order to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of CDU combined with HFU for B-PLG. Results In 121 patients with B-PLG diagnosed by CDU combined with HFU before the surgery, cholesterol polyp was found in 62 (51.24%), infective polyp was found in 27 (22.31%), adenoma was found in 6 (4.96%), adenocarcinoma was found in 3 (2.48%), gallstones was found in 14 (11.57%), adenomyosis was found in 3 (2.48%), the wall structure gland disorder was found in 3 (2.48%), and submucosal soft nodules was found in 3 (2.48%) after the surgical pathological examination. Coincidence rate between CDU combined with HFU diagnosis and surgical pathological diagnosiswas 78.51% (95/121), and the misdiagnosis rate of CDU combined with HFU was 21.49% (26/121). Conclusion The accuracy of CDU combined with HFU diagnosing B-PLG is high, which can help to prevent precancerous lesion of gallbladder cancer.
Objective To compare the efficacy of incision healing by abdominal wall closure measure without suturing subcutaneous fat layer and the traditional abdominal wall closure measure. Methods Four hundreds patients underwent operation of abdominal median incision and abdominal paramedian incision from Sep. 2010 to Sep. 2012 in our department were randomly assigned to observation group （n=199） and control group （n=201）. The patients in obser- vation group underwent abdominal wall closure measure without suturing subcutaneous fat layer， and those of control group were subjected to abdominal wall closure by traditional layer suture technique. Comparison of efficacy of incision healing in the 2 groups was performed. Results The incidences of fat liquefication 〔1 （0.5%） vs.18 （9.0%）〕， incision swelling 〔3 （1.5%） vs.16 （8.0%）〕， incision induration 〔1 （0.5%） vs.15 （7.5%）〕， and dehiscence of wound 〔0 （0） vs.9 （4.5%）〕 in observation group were significantly lower than those of control group （P＜0.01）， but there was no significant difference in incidence of subcutaneous hematoma 〔2 （1.0%） vs.0 （0）， P＞0.05〕. The rate of primary healing in obser-vation group was significantly higher than those of control group 〔199 （100%） vs.186 （92.5%）， P＜0.01〕. Duration of abdominal closure 〔（13.0±1.6） min vs.（18.0±2.2） min〕 and postoperative hospital stay 〔（7.7±1.3） days vs.（9.6±1.9） days〕 were all shorter than those of control group （P＜0.01）. Conclusion The abdominal wall closure measure without suturing subcutaneous fat layer is obviously more effective to the traditional layer suture technique， which is a suture way worthy to spread.
ObjectiveTo explore the feasibility and safety of the artificial pneumoperitoneum and gastrointestinal contrast CT imaging, and imaging diagnostic value on abdominal wall adhesion to intestine after operation. MethodsThirtynine patients with adhesive intestinal obstruction after operation relieved by conservative therapy were included from January 2008 to November 2009. After the artificial pneumoperitoneum established by injection of gas into abdominal cavity and gastrointestinal comparison by oral administration low concentration of meglucamine diatrizoate, CT scan imaging was performed and the radiographic results were compared with surgical findings. ResultsFour patients refused surgery and discharged, so enterolysis was performed in the remaining patients. The surgical findings were consistent with radiographic results. It was showed by laparoscopic operation that intestinal obstruction caused by the fibrous adhesions and the intestine did not adhere to the abdominal wall in eight patients with fibrous adhesion diagnosed by CT. Of eighteen patients with the abdominal wall septally adhered to the intestinal, the surgical findings showed the intestine and the abdominal wall formed “M”type adhesions and omentum adhesions in sixteen patients underwent open operation, and clear fat space was showed in eight patients and close adhesion was found in another eight patients between the intestine and abdominal wall. Of thirteen patients with the abdominal wall tentiformly adhered to the intestinal, the surgical findings showed the intestine and the abdominal wall formed continuous and tentiform adhesions and omentum adhesions to the intestine in eleven patients. After the followup of 6-18 months (mean 9 months), incomplete intestinal obstruction occurred in one patient and was relieved by conservative treatment. One patient with discontinuous discomfort in abdomen after operation did not receive any treatment. The other patients were cured. ConclusionThe artificial pneumoperitoneum and gastrointestinal contrast CT imaging can accurately show the location, area, and structure composition of the postoperative abdominal wall adhesion to intestine, which is safety, simple, and bly repeatable, and a better imaging method for the diagnosing of abdominal wall adhesion to intestine after operation.
