ObjectiveTo explore the value of the long time lower abdominal aorta balloon block technology in the pelvis or sacrum tumor surgery. MethodsFrom January 2005 to June 2013, the sacrum or pelvic tumor patients underwent the long time lower abdominal aorta balloon block technology in the Orthopedics Department of West China Hospital of Sichuan University were enrolled. According to the balloon blocking time, patients were divided into A (<90 mins), B (90 to 180 mins), and C (>180 mins) groups. The intraoperative blood loss, blood transfusion amount, average lengths of hospital stay, postoperative volume of drainage, and postoperative complications were compared among the three groups. ResultsA total of 78 patients were included, of which 21 were in group A, 38 were in group B and 19 were in group C. All patients received en bloc resection, and did not experience intraoperative balloon shift and abdominal aorta flow leakage. Comparing the three groups, there were significant differences in intraoperative blood loss (P=0.026) and average lengths of hospital stay (P=0.021). Further pairwise comparison showed the intraoperative blood loss and average lengths of hospital stay in group C were significantly higher than those in group A and group B. In addition, there were no statistical differences among the three groups in blood transfusion amount, postoperative volume of drainage and postoperative complications. ConclusionIn the pelvis and sacrum tumor surgery, extending the time of abdominal aorta balloon block can reduce bleeding, save blood, increase the safety of surgery without increasing in postoperative complications.
目的 通过对保留不同平面骶骨的新鲜人骨盆模型进行生物力学测试，分析骶骨切除平面与骨盆稳定性的关系，明确骶骨切除保留至何种程度时需行腰骶髂稳定性重建。 方法 选用6具正常成年男性新鲜尸体腰5-骨盆标本，采用200 N增量分级加载，以1.4 mm/min速率平稳加载直至1 000 N，依次测试保留完整骶骨及不同平面骶骨切除骨盆模型的最大主应力、剪切应力、位移及刚度变化，比较各组间的差异。最后测量1/2S1组骨盆环的极限载荷，记录骨折发生部位和骨折类型。 结果 随骶骨切除平面增高，最大主应力、剪切力及骶骨下沉位移在各测试点均有不同程度增大，骨盆的轴向刚度不断减小。当切除平面达骶1时，变化明显，尤其以经过骶1下1/4～下1/2时变化显著，与完整骶骨组比较，差异有统计学意义（P＜0.05）。骶1椎体下1/2平面切除后，骨盆的极限载荷是（2 375.97 ± 162.41）N，骨盆的破坏形态为经骶髂关节或骶椎的骨折。 结论 骶骨切除范围与骨盆环的稳定性密切相关，随着骶骨切除平面升高，残留骶髂关节各种应力急剧增高，骨盆的稳定性明显下降。当骶骨切除涉及骶1椎体时，极易发生骨折，需要进行腰骶髂局部重建以增强骶髂关节的稳定性。
Objective To review the development of the reconstruction methods following total sacrectomy, and to provide reference for finding a better reconstruction method following total sacrectomy. Methods The case reports and biomechanical and finite element studies of reconstruction following total sacrectomy at home and abroad were searched. Development and current situation were summarized. Results After developing for nearly 30 years, great progress has been made in the reconstruction concept and fixation techniques. The fixation methods can be summarized as the following three strategies: spinopelvic fixation (SPF), posterior pelvic ring fixation (PPRF), and anterior spinal column fixation (ASCF). SPF has undergone technical progress from intrapelvic rod and hook constructs to pedicle and iliac screw-rod systems. PPRF and ASCF could improve the stability of the reconstruction system. Conclusion Reconstruction following total sacrectomy remains a challenge. Reconstruction combining SPF, PPRF, and ASCF is the developmental direction to achieve mechanical stability. How to gain biological fixation to improve the long-term stability is an urgent problem to be solved.
ObjectiveTo summarize the research progress of surgical treatment for primary sacrum tumor. MethodThe domestic and foreign related literature about surgical treatment of primary sacrum tumor, and many aspects of its surgical procedures, intraoperative hemostasis, pelvic reconstruction, protection of sacral nerve, complications, and prognosis was summarized and analyzed. ResultsThe operation is the major therapy for primary sacrum tumor. However, surgical procedures, protection of sacral nerve, and the way of intraoperative hemostasis remain controversial. Meanwhile, the complexity of pelvic reconstruction, the diversity of complications, and prognosis related with many factors bring difficulties and challenges to the surgical treatment. ConclusionsIt is urgent need to develop an effective unified standard to conduct diagnosis and treatment of primary sacrum tumor.

ObjectiveTo study the value of CT angiography (CTA) in the surgical treatment of bone tumors with the temporary balloon blocking technique. MethodsA retrospective analysis was made on the clinical data of 36 bone tumor patients between April 2008 and October 2013. There were 22 males and 14 females, aged from 25 to 83 years (mean, 46 years). The tumor located at the sacrococcygeal region in 17 cases, at the ilium in 12 cases, at the pubis in 5 cases, and at the proximal femur in 2 cases. Before surgery, CTA was performed to measure the external diameter of aortaventralis and arteria iliac communis, and the distance between the low renal artery and the abdominal aortic bifurcation as well as mark the anatomical relationship between the low renal artery, the abdominal aortic bifurcation and bony landmarks of vertebral body. According to these data, suitable balloon was chosen and the balloon positioning was guided in the surgery to completely excise tumor assisted by balloon blocking technique. ResultsThe CTA results showed that the external diameter of aortaventralis and arteria iliaca communis was (1.545±0.248) cm and (1.060±0.205) cm respectively, and the distance between the low renal artery and the abdominal aortic bifurcation was (10.818±1.165) cm. The three-dimensional reconstruction showed that the opening of the low renal artery was mainly located at L1 (16/36, 44.4%) and the abdominal aortic bifurcation mainly located at L4 (22/36, 61.1%). Effective block of abdomial aorta was performed; the blood pressure obviously increased in 3 cases after balloon inflation, and pulse of the left dorsal artery of the foot decreased in 1 case after removal of balloon, which were relieved after expectant treatment. The operation time was 118-311 minutes; the intraoperative blood loss was 200-1 800 mL, 21 patients were given blood transfusion, and the amount of blood transfusion was 400-1200 mL; and the aortic clamping time was 40-136 minutes. All patients were followed up 5-44 months (mean, 21 months). According to Enneking standard, the results were excellent in 9 cases, good in 20 cases, fair in 5 cases, and poor in 2 cases at 3 months after operation. There were 10 cases of dysfunction of urination and defecation, 2 cases of tumor recurrence, and 3 cases of death after surgery. ConclusionCTA and three-dimensional reconstructions technique can accurately measure the external diameter of aortaventralis and arteria iliaca communis and the distance between low renal artery and abdominal aortic bifurcation and offer great help to choose appropriate balloon and locate the balloon during surgery. The balloon blocking technique under the assistance of CTA can obviously reduce intraoperative blood loss and tumor recurrence, supply a clear view in surgery and shorten the operation time.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the clinical efficiency of balloon occlusion of the lower abdominal aorta in blood loss control during resections of pelvic or sacral tumor. MethodsFrom April 2006 to April 2010, 24 patients diagnosed as pelvic or sacral tumor in this hospital were collected. Balloon occlusion of the lower abdominal aorta to control blood loss was used in these cases. Balloon catheters were placed via femoral artery to occlude the abdominal aorta before operation. Resections of pelvic or sacral tumors were performed after occlusion of abdominal aorta, duration no longer than 60 min per occlusion, if repeated occlusions needed, 10－15 min release in between. Results Average operative time was 153 min (range 40－245 min) and average blood loss was 310 ml (range 200－650 ml) in this series, and the procedure helped in clearly identifying the surgical margin, neurovascular structures, and adjacent organs. The blood pressure were stable in all the cases. No postoperative renal function impairment was found in all the cases, no side injuries to adjacent organs was identified. One case complicated with thrombosis in iliac artery at same puncture side was successfully treated with catheter thrombectomy. ConclusionIntraoperative abdominal aorta balloon occluding in pelvic and sacral tumor surgical operation could reduce blood loss, and improve the safety of operation.
ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical efficiency of pelvic and sacrum tumor surgery using sizing balloon occlusion of the lower abdominal aorta. MethodsFrom January 2005 to June 2011, 156 patients were diagnosed to have sacrum or pelvic tumor and underwent surgery in our institution. Temporary balloon occlusion of abdominal aorta was used in 51 patients during the resection of sacrum and pelvic tumors (balloon group). Another 105 patients received the traditional surgery resection (control group). The results of the whole operation time, the volume of blood loss and transfusion, the complication and the total days of stay in hospital in the two groups were compared with each other. ResultsAfter the abdominal aorta was occluded, 92.2% of the patients in the balloon group had holistic resection or edge resection, while the number was 86.7% for the control group. In the balloon group, the average operation time was (171.96±65.16) minutes, the average intraoperative blood loss was (746.86±722.73) mL, and the blood transfusion was (411.76±613.73) mL. The postoperative lead flow was (294.50±146.09) mL, and the postoperative tube removal was within (2.98±1.07) days. Improvement of patients'condition was significantly better than the control group (P<0.05). No significant difference was found in the total days of stay in hospital and the postoperative complications between the two groups (P>0.05). ConclusionUsing abdominal aorta occlusion can effectively control intraoperative hemorrhage, and show the operation field clearly. It also can reduce operation time and control the blood transfusions. Appropriately extended balloon blocking time can obviously improve the tumor removal rate and the safety of the operation.
