Objective To diagnose and treat a patient with obstructive jaundice and hepatic bile duct tumor by multi-disciplinary team (MDT) and to provide individualized treatment. Methods By MDT model, a patient with obstructive jaundice and hepatic bile duct tumor, who was ever misdiagnosed as hilar cholangiocarcinoma, was discussed. The diagnosis, perioperative period management, and operation scheme were carried out by the MDT. Results After discussion of MDT, the patient was diagnosed as " hepatocellular carcinoma with bile duct tumor thrombi”, not " hilar cholangiocarcinoma”. Although hepatocellular carcinoma with bile duct tumor thrombi was end-stage disease, radical treatment was still considered. A plan of treatment was carried out by the MDT. Firstly, the percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage was operated for the predicted reserved half liver to relieve biliary obstruction. Secondly, hemihepatectomy combined with bile duct resection was carried out by the surgery team. The patient had nice postoperative recovery and there was no tumor recurrence after 6-month follow-up after surgery up to now. Conclusions MDT model do not only reduce misdiagnose, but also can provide the best therapeutic regimen and individualized treatment for patient presented with obstructive jaundice and hepatic bile duct tumor.
Objective To observe the clinical application of multidisciplinary team (MDT) treatment in the management of geriatric hip fractures and evaluate its effectiveness. Methods The clinical data of 76 elderly patients with hip fracture managed by MDT approach between August 2016 and February 2018 (MDT group) were retrospectively analyzed and compared with 102 patients managed by traditional orthopedics approach between January 2014 and December 2015 (conventional group). There was no significant difference in gender, age, fracture type, surgical procedure, and other general data between the two groups (P>0.05). However, the number of comorbidities in the MDT group was significantly higher than that in the conventional group (t=6.295, P=0.000), and the proportion of the number of comorbidities between the two groups was also significantly different (χ2=28.442, P=0.000). The consultation rate and transfer rate, time to surgery, rate of surgery within 2 or 3 days, operation time, postoperative hospitalization stay, length of hospitalization stay, hospitalization expense, rate of loss to follow-up, and mortality during hospitalization, 30-day mortality, 90-day mortality, and 1-year mortality after operation were compared between the two groups. Results The rates of total consultations of the conventional group and the MDT group were 56.86% (58/102) and 56.58% (43/76), respectively, and the rates of total transferred patients were 15.69% (16/102) and 15.79% (12/76), respectively, with no significant differences (P>0.05). Among them, the proportion of patients who transferred into intensive care unit (ICU) in conventional group was significantly higher than that in MDT group and the rates of patients who received geriatric consultation or transferred into geriatric department in MDT group were both significantly higher than those in conventional group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in rates of other department consultation or transfer between the two groups (P>0.05). The time to surgery, operation time, postoperative hospitalization stay, and length of hospitalization stay in MDT group were significantly less than those in conventional group, but the proportion of patients who received surgery within 3 days in MDT group was significantly higher than that in conventional group (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the proportion of patients who received surgery within 2 days (χ2=2.027, P=0.155). The hospitalization expenses of total patients, femoral neck fracture, and intertrochanteric fracture subgroups in MDT group were all significantly higher than those in conventional group (P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference in hospitalization expense of subtrochanteric fracture subgroup between the two groups (Z=−1.715, P=0.086). The rate of loss to follow-up in conventional group and MDT group was 6.86% (7/102) and 3.95% (3/76), respectively, with no significant difference (χ2=0.698, P=0.403). The mortalities at hospitalization, 1 month, 3 months, and 1 year after operation in conventional group were 0, 1.05% (1/95), 3.16% (3/95), and 7.37% (7/95), respectively, and in MDT group were 0, 0, 2.74% (2/73), 6.85% (5/73), respectively, showing no significant differences in mortalities between the two groups (P>0.05). Conclusion MDT model in the management of geriatric hip fractures has been shown to reduce time to surgery, postoperative hospitalization stay, length of hospitalization stay, operation time, and the proportion of patients who received ICU consultation or transferred into ICU. Furthermore, MDT can improve the capacity for developing operations for patients with complex medical conditions and make medical resources used more rationally.

Objective To investigate the effectiveness of 5G remote robotic surgery in the treatment of pelvic fractures. Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted on the clinical data of 160 patients with pelvic fractures admitted between July 2023 and June 2024 who met the selection criteria. Among these patients, 80 underwent internal fixation surgery with the assistance of 5G remote robotic surgery (5G group), while 80 received local robotic surgical assistance (control group). Baseline characteristics, including gender, age, body mass index, disease duration, cause of injury, and fracture classification, were compared between the two groups, and no significant difference was found (P>0.05). The incision length, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, hospital stay, accuracy of screw placement, maximum residual displacement postoperatively, quality of fracture reduction, incidence of complications, Majeed pelvic function score and classification at last follow-up were recorded and compared between the two groups. Results In the 5G group, 180 screws were implanted during surgery, while 213 screws were implanted in the control group. The 5G group demonstrated significantly reduced intraoperative blood loss and shorter incision length compared to the control group (P<0.05). No significant difference was observed between the two groups in terms of operation time or hospital stay (P>0.05). Radiographic evaluation revealed excellent and good reduction rates of 98.8% (79/80) in the 5G group and 97.5% (78/80) in the control group, while excellent and good screw placement accuracy rates were 98.3% (177/180) in the 5G group and 95.8% (204/213) in the control group. No significant difference was found between the two groups in maximum residual displacement, reduction quality, or screw placement accuracy (P>0.05). All patients were followed up 7-16 months (mean, 11.3 months), with no significant difference in follow-up duration between the groups (P>0.05). No perioperative or follow-up complication, such as wound infection, iatrogenic fractures, iatrogenic neurovascular injury, screw loosening or breakage, or nonunion, were observed in either group. The control group exhibited a worse degree of gait alteration compared to the 5G group (P<0.05), while no significant difference was found in incidences of squatting limitation or persistent pain (P>0.05). At last follow-up, no significant difference was observed between the groups in Majeed pelvic function scores or grading (P>0.05). Conclusion Compared with the local surgery group, 5G remote robotic surgery supported by remote expert technical guidance demonstrated smaller incision lengths, less intraoperative blood loss, and fewer postoperative complications, and was shown to be a precise, minimally invasive, safe, and reliable surgical method.
Retinal vein occlusion (RVO) is one of the most important retinal vascular diseases in China that leads to severe loss of vision. In recent years, the emergence of various emerging imaging technologies and new drugs has not only deepened our understanding of the natural course of this disease, but also significantly changed the traditional treatment mode of retinal laser photocoagulation as the gold standard, thereby significantly improved the visual prognosis. However, currently in various regions and levels of hospitals in China, the diagnosis and treatment of RVO still rely mainly on their own experience. The awareness and knowledge of RVO among ophthalmologists in various regions still need to be improved. A standardized clinical diagnosis and treatment pathway is needed in order to meet the needs of most RVO patients. Led by the Fundus Disease Group of the Ophthalmology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association and the Fundus Disease Professional Committee of the Ophthalmology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, based on the existing evidence-based evidence at home and abroad, and following the principles of consensus formulation, Expert consensus on clinical diagnosis and treatment path of retinal vein occlusion in China has been compiled. The consensus systematically and comprehensively elaborated a standardized diagnosis and treatment pathway for RVO. Interpreting the key points in this consensus is helpful to highlight the core ideas, and improve the utilization of this consensus by ophthalmologists from all levels of hospitals.
The high incidence of hydatid disease in seven northwestern provinces, is one of the reason of "Poverty due to illness, and return poverty due to illness" in China. The incidence of chest hydatid disease in China after hepatic hydatid disease ranks second. Department of thoracic surgery in the First Affiliated Hospital of Xinjiang Medical University is on the domestic leading position of the treatment of chest hydatid disease. Since 1956 the first case of pulmonary hydatid cyst were completed, we have successfully finished the surgical treatment of pediatric chest hydatid disease, chest hydatid disease complex, huge pulmonary hydatid cyst, mediastinal and pleural hydatid cyst, and rib hydatid in our department. To further standardize the treatment of chest hydatid disease, a special formulation of "technical specification for chest hydatid disease diagnosis expert consensus" by our department were produced, in order to help clinicians treat chest hydatid disease by more suitable strategies. This consensus was released in July 2015, for the original version. The definition, diagnosis, treatment principle, and prevention of chest hydatid disease were elaborated and clinical experiences of 60 years were combined with in this consensus, in order to help the clinicians for diagnosis, treatment, and prevention of hydatid disease.
Cardiovascular diseases is the leading cause of threat to human life and health worldwide. Early risk assessment, timely diagnosis, and prognosis evaluation are critical to the treatment of cardiovascular diseases. Currently, the evaluation of diagnosis and prognosis of cardiovascular diseases mainly relies on imaging examinations such as coronary CT and coronary angiography, which are expensive, time-consuming, partly invasive, and require high professional competence of the operator, making it difficult to promote in the community or in areas where medical resources are scarce. The fundus microcirculation is a part of the human microcirculation and has similar embryological origins and physiopathological features to cardiovascular circulation. Several studies have revealed fundus imaging biomarkers associated with cardiovascular diseases, and developed and validated intelligent diagnosis and treatment models for cardiovascular diseases based on fundus imaging data. Fundus imaging is expected to be an important adjunct to cardiovascular disease diagnosis and treatment given its noninvasive and convenient nature. The purpose of this review is to summarize the current research status, challenges, and future prospects of the application of artificial intelligence based on multimodal fundus imaging data in cardiovascular disease diagnosis and treatment.
