目的 通过对连枷胸两种不同治疗方法的比较，探讨该病的优化治疗方案。 方法 将2005年1月－2012年11月收治的80例枷胸患者按入选标准分为：保守组40例，通过胸部外固定和（或）呼吸机内固定等方法治疗；手术组40例，采用镍钛记忆合金环抱式接骨器手术内固定骨折的肋骨，比较两种治疗方法和疗效及并发症情况。 结果 保守组和手术组各死亡3例，原因为呼吸道感染致呼吸衰竭，两组无差异，但ICU停留和住院天数、机械通气时间、呼吸道感染等并发症手术组明显低于保守组（P＜0.01）。手术组无胸壁畸形，而保守组有18例，两组比较差异有统计学意义（P＜0.01）。出院3个月后，手术组患者部分肺功能指标显著优于保守组（P＜0.01）。 结论 手术治疗连枷胸可迅速稳定胸壁，消除反常呼吸和激烈疼痛对呼吸的影响，还可减轻连枷胸对患者远期肺功能的影响，具有较高的临床应用价值。
Anterior cervical decompression and fusion (ACDF) treatment for cervical spondylosis has been more than half a century, and achieved good clinical results. However, with the continuous extension of follow-up time, the fusion segment-associated postoperative complications emerged gradually. Reserved cervical stability and activity, the concept of non-fusion was born. As a non-fusion technique, cervical artificial disc replacement (CADR) developed rapidly. With the continuous development of artificial prosthesis materials and design concepts, and specification and proficiency of surgical procedures, CADR has achieved better short- and mid-term clinical efficacy than ACDF. Compared with ACDF, the main advantages of CADR are that the postoperative recovery is quick, the activity and stability of cervical vertebra are maintained, the height of cervical intervertebral space is restored, and the stress of adjacent segments and the rate of surgical renovation are reduced. In clinical work, as an emerging technology, CADR requires spine surgeons to control the surgical indications, contraindications, and patients’ conditions strictly. This article reviews the research progress of CADR in order to provide new ideas for clinical treatment of cervical spondylosis.
【摘要】 目的 探讨活动期感染性心内膜炎（infectiue endocarditis，IE）患者心脏手术的最佳时期。 方法 回顾分析1999年9月-2009年9月行外科治疗的92例IE患者的临床资料。IE诊断标准为修订的Duke标准。采用SPSS 12.0软件包，分析了年龄、性别、是否是院内感染IE、合并症（糖尿病、慢性阻塞性肿疾病、癌症）、病原菌、手术时间等因素与手术并发症及6个月病死率的关系。 结果 56例患者在确诊为IE后7 d内手术，36例患者在确诊7 d后，并抗生素治疗完成后手术。葡萄球菌为主要感染菌株，与栓塞、脓肿及感染性休克显著相关。最常见的手术指征是重度的瓣膜关闭不全合并心功能不全。6个月的病死率为12%。早期手术与晚期手术比较，病死率增高。单因素分析显示，与6个月病死率相关的因素包括葡萄球菌感染和感染性休克。多因素分析显示感染性休克为6个月内死亡的预测因子。感染性休克的患者尽管行了早期手术，病死率仍为67%。严重瓣膜关闭不全的患者，若未出现心衰，无手术（早期或晚期）死亡。 结论 手术患者的预后由是否发生过感染性休克决定。晚期手术组患者结果好于早期手术组，但结果的差异可能并不是手术的时期不同，而是感染性心内膜炎的严重程度不同造成的。对于有重度瓣膜返流但无心衰的患者，早期手术可能在缩短住院时间，预防心衰发生上有帮助。【Abstract】 Objective To discuss the optimal time of cardiac operations in patients with infective endocarditis (IE). Methods We analyzed the clinical data of 92 patients with IE diagnosed by the modified Duke criteria between September 1999 and September 2009. SPSS 12.0 was used to analyze predictors of 6-month mortality, including age, sex, nosocomial origin of infection, comorbid conditions (diabetes, chromic obstructive pulmonary disease, cancer), the causative microorganisms, the timing of cardiac operation, and the complications. Results Fifty-six patients underwent operation within the first 7 days after diagnosis of infective endocarditis, and 36 received operation at the completion of antibiotic treatment 7 days after the diagnosis. Staphylococci predominated and were significantly associated with embolism, abscess, and septic shock. The most frequent indication for operation was severe regurgitation with heart failure. The 6-month mortality was 12%. Early operation showed an increased mortality compared with late operation. Univariate analysis showed that factors associated with 6-month mortality included staphylococci infection and septic shock. Multivariate analysis revealed that septic shock was a predictor of 6-month mortality. Despite early operation for patients with septic shock, 67% of them died. No death occurred to patients with severe regurgitation but without heart failure after undergoing (early or late) operations. Conclusions The prognosis for surgically treated patients is determined by the occurrence of septic shock. The outcome in patients undergoing late operations is favorable compared with patients undergoing early operations. This difference is probably not due to the timing of the surgical intervention but to the severity of infective endocarditis. In patients with severe regurgitation without heart failure, early operation may offer benefits in shortening the length of hospitalization and preventing development of heart failure.
To study the effect of the repair of rabbit articular cartilage defects by the composite of chondrogenic induction of autologous MSCs and autologous “two-phase” bone matrix gelatin (BMG). Methods Twentyfour healthy adult New Zealand rabbits weighing 2 to 3 kg were divided into group A, B and C with 8 in each. Autologous MSCsderived from group A were cultured in vitro and observed under inverted phase contrast microscope when enough cells through trypsinization transferring in vitro were obtained. Then the growth curves of 1, 3 and 5 passage culture of MSCs were drawn. The 3rd passage MSCs were induced into chondrogenic differentiation by adding TGF-β1 (10 ng/mL), IGF-1 (10 ng/mL) and vitamin C (50 ng/mL) in vitro. At 8 days after induction, the features of chondrocytes were observed under inverted phase contrast microscope, and immunohistochemical staining and Mallory staining were made. Getting out part of the il ium of group A and B, according to the method of Urist, the “two-phase” BMG was acquired. Chondrogenic induction of autologous MSCs was inoculated into the corresponding BMG to set up a composite of cell-carrier, and then it was observed through scanning electric microscope after 3 days of culture. The model of articular cartilage defects of rabbits was made: in group A, autologous cell-carriers were implanted; in group B, there only existed autologous BMG; in group C, there was nothing. At 8, 12 weeks after operation, the gross, HE staining and immunohistochemical staining were made, and grading scales were evaluated according to Wakitani histological grading method. Results Features of MSCs were as follows: the shape of primary cells was shotspindled and of passage cells was long. As to the growth curves of 1, 3 and 5 passage culture of MSCs, passage cells grew slowly for 3 days after being passaged and went into log-growth during the 3rd and the 7th days and into plateau later, but the 3rd passage cells grew best. Observation of MSCs after chondrogenic induction was performed: the shape of cells was ell iptical and the effect of induction was verified by the positive results of collagen type II, S-100 and Mallory staining. Under scanning electricmicroscope, the structure of BMG was good and cells were observed growing in it well. As far as repair of articular cartilage defects are concerned at 8, 12 weeks after transplantation, the defects in group A were repaired by the hyl ine-l ike tissue and the structures of the cartilage surface and normal cartilage were in integrity, and immunohistochemical staining of collagen type II was positive, while those in group B and C were repaired by the fibrous-l ike tissues and the surfaces were irregular. In Wakitanni histological score, at 8 weeks after operation, group A was (3.50 ± 1.51) points, group B was (10.00 ± 1.41) points and group C was (12.00 ± 0.93) points; at 12 weeks, group A was (1.13 ± 0.99) points, group B was (8.38±1.30) points, and group C was (10.13 ± 1.64) points. At different time points, group A was significantly better than group B and C, showing significant differences (P lt; 0.05). Conclusion Induced autologous MSCs and the composite with autologous “two-phase” BMG have the function to repair articular cartilage defects, and they are better than autologous BMG transplanted only or nothing transplanted.

Objective To explore the effectiveness of two-stage operation on free latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap transplantation and skull contour reconstruction in the treatment of head titanium mesh exposure complicated with soft tissue infection. Methods Between January 2015 and December 2021, 13 patients with head titanium mesh exposure complicated with soft tissue infection were admitted. There were 9 males and 4 females with a mean age of 42.9 years (range, 23-64 years). The duration of titanium mesh exposure was 22-609 days (median, 102 days). The wound site located at the frontal part in 3 cases, the parietal part in 1 case, the occipital part in 2 cases, the frontal-parietal part in 1 case, the temporal-parietal part in 4 cases, and the frontotemporal part in 2 cases. The titanium mesh had been taken out in 5 patients before admission, leaving skull defect and shape collapse, with signs of infection. The bacterial culture was positive in 7 cases and negative in 6 cases. The imaging examination revealed that the size of the skull defect ranged from 6 cm×5 cm to 21 cm×17 cm and the scalp defect ranged from 1 cm×1 cm to 15 cm×10 cm. The soft tissue infection did not reach dura in 5 cases, reached dura in 6 cases, and reached frontal sinus in 2 cases. The two-stage surgical protocol was used in all patients. In the first-stage operation, the latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap was designed to repair the skull and scalp defects after removing the titanium mesh and thorough debridement. The size of muscle flap ranged from 13.5 cm×4.0 cm to 21.0 cm×17.0 cm, and the skin flap ranged from 7.0 cm×4.0 cm to 15.0 cm×10.0 cm. After the flap survived and stabilized, the second-stage operation was performed. The titanium mesh was implanted to reconstruct the skull contour. The size of titanium mesh ranged from 7.0 cm×6.0 cm to 21.5 cm×17.5 cm. The interval between the first- and second-stage operations was 3.7-17.8 months, with an average of 11.4 months. The survival of the skin flap, the appearance of the head, and the presence of re-exposed titanium mesh and infection were observed after operation. Results At the first-stage operation, venous embolism occurred in 1 case, and no obvious abnormality was observed after treatment. All the flaps survived and the incisions healed by first intention. Besides, the incisions of the second-stage operation healed by first intention. All patients were followed up 1-96 months (median, 14 months). During follow-up, no exposure to titanium mesh, infection, or other complications occurred. The appearance satisfaction rate of the patients was 92.31% (11/13). There was no significant difference in the skull contour between the affected side and the healthy side in all patients. Conclusion For the head titanium mesh exposure with soft tissue infection, the application of two-stage operation on free latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap transplantation and skull contour reconstruction can reduce the risks of implant exposure and infection again by increasing the thickness of the scalp and blood supply, filling the wound cavity, and obtain good effectiveness.
