BACKGROUND:Intertrochanteric femoral fractures are one of the most common fractures in old patients. How to effectively fix has a great chalenge for orthopedic surgeons. No consensus on which fixation method is optimal has been obtained in the academia. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the clinical therapeutic effects and complications of minimaly invasive percutaneous proximal femur locking compression plate for senile stable intertrochanteric fractures. METHODS:From May 2010 to May 2012, 98 patients (34 males and 64 females) with stable intertrochanteric fractures were treated with minimaly invasive percutaneous proximal femur locking compression plate fixation. The mean age was 76 years (range, 59-93 years). The mean time between fractures and operation was 3 days (range, 1-5 days). Patients were folowed up regularly after treatment. Healing time, Harris score of hip function recovery and the occurrence of complications were evaluated. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Al patients were folowed up for 12-24 months. Al incisions obtained healing by first intention. Al fractures reached clinical healing, and the healing time was 12-20 weeks (16 weeks on average). There was no fixation failure and loosing, rotation, crispatura deformity or screw cutting the femoral head. The function of the hip joint was assessed according to the Harris scoring: excelent in 75 cases and good in 18 cases, with the excelent and good rate of 95%. These data verify that proximal femur locking compression plate can be a feasible alternative to the treatment of stable intertrochanteric fractures. The patients obtained satisfactory outcomes, with less complication, indicating that there is a good biocompatibility between the implant and elderly host.

Objective To evaluate the changes in the epidemiology and clinical characteristics of cervical carcinoma over the past 50 years, and to explore the equitable treatment corresponding to these changes. Methods The clinical and pathological data of 1557 patients with invasive cervical carcinoma from January 1955 to December 2004 were retrospectively analyzed. Results (1) The average age of cervical carcinoma onset gradually decreased over the past 50 years, from 56.27?8.45 in years 1955~1964 to 43.81?8.9 in years 1995~2004. At the same time, the radio of clinically early (stages Ⅰ-Ⅱ) and non-squamous cancer also steadily increased. (2) Young patients (≤35 year old) had higher ratios of non-squamous, poorly differentiated and late stage (Ⅲ-Ⅳ) cancers, with a higher rate of lymphatic metastasis compared with other ages. (3) Because of the changes in epidemiology and clinical characteristics of cervical carcinoma, it′s necessary to alter the traditional model of treatment and to explore equitable therapy corresponding to these changes. Conclusions The average age of cervical carcinoma onset gradually decreased and simultaneously the ratio of clinically early (stages Ⅰ-Ⅱ) and non-squamous cancer also steadily increased over the last 50 years. Patients aged 35 and younger of cervical carcinoma had some obvious clinical characteristics compared with that of older patients. Preservation of reproductive endocrine function ought to be deliberated on in cervical carcinoma treatment of women with fecundity. Neoadjuvant intraarterial chemotherapy (NAIC) is an useful method for cervical carcinoma at present

Objective To discuss the application of minimally invasive surgery in the treatment of esophageal leiomyoma. Methods Clinical data of 26 patients with esophageal leiomyoma from September 1996 to October 2002 treated by minimally invasive surgery were reviewed retrospectively. Results Video-assisted thoracoscopic leiomyoma enucleations were performed in 23 patients, and a conversion to mini-thoracotomy was required in 3 of them because of dense pleural adhesion (2 patients) or location failure of tumor (1 patient). The remaining 3 patients underwent transjugular leiomyoma enucleation (2 patients) or esophagoscopic resection of leiomyoma (1 patient), respectively. All the procedures were completed smoothly and the postoperative recovery was uneventful, without mortality or severe complications. All the patients were pathologically diagnosed as leiomyoma after surgery. Follow-up for 2 ~ 73 months (mean,32.3months) found no recurrence. Conclusions Video-assisted thoracoscopic enucleation can be the first choice for the esophageal leiomyomas that derived from lamina propria, while esophagoscopic removal may be considered for those from muscularis mucosa.
