Objective To investigate the feasibility of urethral prefabrication with vaginal mucosa in female-to-male transsexuals and to compare the urologic complications after penile reconstruction in female-to-male transsexuals between prefabrication group and forearm group.Methods Prefabrication of the neourethra with tubed vaginal mucosal graft was performed for 22 female-to-male transsexual patients from 2007 to 2016,while radial forearm flap,known as the traditional tube-within-tube method,was used to construct the neourethra for other 31 cases.Results All of the reconstructed penises survived completely and allowed the patients to urinate while standing in the prefabrication group.Phalloplasty by using the vaginal mucosal graft for urethroplasty significantly decreased the donor scar,the duration of the second operation and the incidence rates of urologic strictures,comparing with the forearm group (P＜0.05).Conclusions It is reliable to use the prefabrication of the neourethra with tubed vaginal mucosal graft in phalloplasty female-to-male transsexual patients.

Objective To study the prognosis in preeclampsia fetal blood flow detection and perinatals analysis. Methods From July 2012 to July 2014,120 cases of pregnant women at 20 weeks of gestation conducted a retrospective studied in our hospital,were divided into the research group and the control group(n=60),the research group was preeclamp-sia fetus; The control group was normal pregnancy fetus. Two groups all used color doppler ultrasound instrument from 24 weeks-27 weeks+6,to 28 weeks-31 weeks+6,32 weeks to be tested before deliveryvenous catheter and umbili-cal vein,umbilical artery and middle cerebral artery blood flow parameters change,and perinatal prognosis were ana-lyzed. Results Both mild and severe pre-eclampsia fetal resistance index (RI), venous catheter before load index(PLL), peak flow velocity(PVIV), pulse index(PIV), intravenous catheter FenLiuLv(Qdv-venous catheter blood flow/Quv-umbil-ical venous blood flow) values were significantly higher than that of control group, the difference was statistical signifi-cant(P<0.01). The normal end of PLL, PVIV, PIV, S/A and Qdv aderse outcome/Quv values were lower than group, the difference was statistical significant (P<0.05). The team's weight and neonatal Apgar score were lower than the control group,the difference was not statistical significant(P>0.05);Two groups of umbilical vein between pH and umbilical arte-rial blood oxygen saturation had no obvious difference (P>0.05). Conclusion Preeclampsia fetal abnormal venous catheter and umbilical vein blood flow or waveform changes have a certain relationship with poor perinatal outcomes.

Methods: We in situ sutured severely amputated composite tissues of facial region in 14 cases in emergency by vessels and nerves anastomosis from May 2004 to December 2017. Results: All replanted composite tissues survived in 13 cases. Edge necrosis of auricle occurred in 1 case because of serious contusion and it was cured after dressing changed. The color and appearance of the replanted composite tissues were close to normal after 3 to 48 months′ follow-up. Conclusions In situ suturing technique in emergency is the ideal treatment for severe amputation of composite tissues of facial region.

Objective To investigate the effect of Zhuang medicated thread moxibustion on postherpetic neuralgia model rats,and to verify the mechanism of Th1/Th2/Th17 cytokine balance regulation in central nervous system.Methods 50 SD rats were randomly divided into blank group,model group,thread-moxibustion without drugs group,Zhuang medicated thread moxibustion group and pregabalin group,with 10 rats in each group.Except for blank group,the rat model of postherpetic neuralgia was induced by a single intrapitoneal injection of resin-toxin(RTX).After successful modeling,each group was given corresponding treatment for 21 days.The Mechanical Pain Threshold(PWT)and Thermal withdrawal latency(TWL)were detected 3 days before modeling,1,4 and 7 days after modeling,and 3,7,14 and 21 days after intervention.After the intervention,extract spinal cord tissue,Flow cytometry was used to detect changes in the proportion of Th1/Th2/Th17 cells;The mRNA expression levels of IFN-γ,IL-2,IL-4,IL-10,IL-17 and IL-22 were detected by qPCR;The positive expressions of IFN-γ,IL-2,IL-4,IL-10,IL-17 and IL-22 were observed by immunohistochemistry.The protein expressions of IFN-γ,IL-2,IL-4,IL-10,IL-17 and IL-22 were detected by Western blot to elucidate the regulation effect of this therapy on the equilibrium mechanism.Results After intrapitoneal injection of resin-toxin,the PWT of rats showed a downward trend,while the TWL showed an upward trend,showing the separation of heat and pain,which was consistent with the clinical manifestations of PHN.After Zhuang medicated thread moxibustion therapy,PWT increased and TWL decreased in PHN rats,which reduced the separation trend of heat and pain.Thread-moxibustion without drugs group,Zhuang medicated thread moxibustion group and pregabalin group can promote Th1 response in the central nervous system(spinal cord),increase the proportion of CD4+IL-2+cells and the contents of IFN-γ and IL-2 in the spinal cord tissue,and up-regulate the expression of IFN-γ and IL-2 mRNA and protein.Meanwhile,Th2 and Th17 responses in the central nervous system were inhibited,and the proportions of CD4+IL-4+and CD4+IL-17A+cells and the contents of IL-4,IL-10,IL-17 and IL-22 in the spinal cord tissue were reduced.The mRNA and protein expressions of IL-4,IL-10,IL-17 and IL-22 were down-regulated.In addition,Zhuang medicated thread moxibustion group and pregabalin group had similar efficacy in correcting Th1/Th2/Th17 lymphocyte imbalance in the central nervous system,and both were better than the Thread-moxibustion without drugs group.Conclusion Zhuang medicated thread moxibustion can improve the separation trend of heat and pain in postherpetic neuralgia rats,which may be achieved by regulating Th1/Th2/Th17 cell balance and related cytokine levels.

Objective:Clinical characteristics and diagnosis and treatment process was reported and analyzed of a patient with brucellosis complicated with thyroid abscess, providing reference for the clinical diagnosis of brucellosis complicated with thyroid abscess.Methods:Clinical medical records of a patient with brucellosis complicated with thyroid abscess who was treated at the General Surgery Department of Yanchi County People's Hospital in Wuzhong City, Ningxia Hui Autonomous Region in November 2021 were collected. The clinical manifestations, blood routine, brucella antibodies, thyroid function, bacterial culture, thyroid ultrasound and other examination results, as well as the diagnosis and treatment process, were comprehensively analyzed. Results:The patient was a male, 61 years old, who presented with a neck mass without typical clinical manifestations of brucellosis. Thyroid ultrasound revealed a space occupying lesion, and the preliminary diagnosis was thyroid cystadenoma. Thyroid right lobe and isthmus resection surgery was performed. During the operation, it was found that some of the thyroid glands were tightly adhered to the cervical blood vessels, so the resection surgery was changed to abscess drainage, and the drainage fluid was purulent and bloody. The bacterial culture result of thyroid purulent fluid (intraoperative puncture fluid and postoperative drainage fluid) was brucella lamblia, and the serum brucella test tube agglutination test titer was 1 ∶ 400 (+++). The patient improved and was discharged after local drainage and anti brucella treatment. Follow up for 4 months showed no abnormalities. Conclusions:Brucellosis which begins with a local infection of the thyroid gland is extremely rare, with no characteristic clinical manifestations, and is prone to misdiagnosis. Timely correction of the surgical plan during the treatment process avoids the removal of the patient's thyroid, which has a certain clinical reference value.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical effect of soft tissue defects around wrist joints repaired with forearm distal perforator propeller flap.Methods:The clinical data of 125 patients with defects of popliteal fossa from May 2008 to October 2019 were analyzed retrospectively, in which 71 men and 54 women were included aged from 16 to 87 years old. The sizes of soft tissue defect ranged from 3.5 cm×2.5 cm to 12.0 cm×6.0 cm. Perforator propeller flap was designed and cut to repair the defects according to their location, size and shape. 62 cases of distal radial artery perforator propeller flap, 48 cases of distal ulnar artery perforator propeller flap and 15 cases of distal posterior interosseous artery perforator propeller flap were included, in which the largest was 14.0 cm×6.0 cm and the smallest was 4.0 cm×3.0 cm. The donor sites were covered with free full-thickness skin grafts. Skin swelling rating in early and later stage and the color after 3 to 60 months follow-up were evaluated for the effect.Results:All the flaps survived in 116 patients, though the distal edge of the flaps were necrotic in 9 cases. The incisions in donor and recipient sites were primarily healed. After 3 to 60 months follow-up, we found no deformity of wrist joints and the appearance was good; the color and elasticity were close to normal; the scar was small; two-point discrimination was 6 mm to 9 mm. The outcome was satisfactory in 89 cases, average in 36 cases and without dissatisfactory. Skin swelling rating in early stage was first degree in 80 cases, second degree in 30 cases, third degree in 15 cases; in later stage was first degree in 85 cases, second degree in 35 cases, third degree in 15 cases. Wrist function was assessed in four aspects: palmar flexion, dorsiflexion, radial deviation, and ulnar deviation. Results were excellent in 29 cases, good in 63 cases, average in 33 cases and the good rate was 73.6%. The pain of wrist did not affect the patients’ daily routines and activities.Conclusions:It is reliable to repair soft tissue defects around wrist joints repaired with forearm distal perforator propeller flap which is worthy of clinical use, especially in middle-aged and senile patients.
