Abstract:
Objective:To evaluate the effect of ultrasound and CT three-dimensional reconstruction in open reduction and internal fixation of fractured ribs.Methods:A retrospective case-control study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 112 patients with chest trauma and rib fractures admitted to Yan′an People′s Hospital from January 2021 to September 2023. According to the different preoperative positioning methods used, the reconstruction group was divided into a reconstruction group ( n=61) and a combined group ( n=51). The reconstruction group positioned the surgical incision position based on conventional CT three-dimensional reconstruction, while the combined group positioned the rib fracture end based on CT three-dimensional reconstruction combined with ultrasound. Record clinical data of two groups of patients and compare their preoperative positioning accuracy, average incision length, exposure time of fracture ends, fracture healing time, incision infection rate, surgical related indicators, visual analogue pain score (VAS) at one month after surgery, and surgical incision healing levels. Measurement data with normal distribution were expressed as mean±standard deviation ( ± s), and t-test was used for inter group comparison; Comparison of count data between groups using chi-square test; The comparison of grade data were conducted using Mann-Whitney U test. Results:The preoperative localization accuracy, postoperative VAS at one month, and surgical incision healing grade A of the combined group patients were 94.4%, (2.26±0.48) points, 96.1%, respectively, the reconstruction group were 84.1%, (4.52±1.34) points, 72.1%, the combined group was better than the reconstructed group, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P<0.05); The average incision length, fracture exposure time, fracture healing time, surgical time, and thoracic tube retention time of the combined group were (7.32±2.44) cm, (18.06±4.78) min, (48.16±4.58) d, (55.46±7.48) min, and (3.57±1.28) min, respectively. The reconstruction group were (10.16±2.86) cm, (29.45±5.65) min, (55.36±4.45) d, (64.36±7.52) min, and (7.49±1.52) min, respectively, the difference between the two groups was statistically significant ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Application of ultrasound combined with CT three-dimensional reconstruction in open reduction and internal fixation of fractured ribs can increase the preoperative positioning accuracy, which can guide the surgical incision, thus alleviating postoperative pain, facilitating postoperative healing, minimizing surgical trauma, and improving the patient′s prognosis.
