Objective To investigate the effects of hippocampal?sparing intensity?modulated radiotherapy ( IMRT) on dose distribution of target volume and organs at risk ( OARs) in locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Methods A retrospective dosimetric analysis was performed among 11 patients with locally advanced nasopharyngeal carcinoma. The MONACO ? v5. 10 Treatment Planning System was used to design three treatment plans:routine volumetric modulated arc therapy ( VMAT ) , hippocampal?sparing VMAT, and nine fixed?fields IMRT. The D98%, D50%, D2%, Dmean , conformity index ( CI ) , and homogeneity index (HI) of planning target volume (PTV) and PTVnx as well as dose distribution of the hippocampus and OARs were evaluated. Using single factor analysis of variance,two group comparative was LSD or paired t?test. Results For the above three plans,the D2% values of PTVnx were ,7 513,and 7 462 cGy,respectively (P=0. 016);the D98% values of PTV were 5837,5812,and 5914 cGy,respectively (P=0. 029);the average D2% values of PTV were 7 399,7 380,and 7 333 cGy,respectively ( P=0. 047);the HI values of PTV were 0. 239,0. 241,and 0. 220,respectively (P=0. 016);the V10 values of the brain stem were 97. 2%,88. 1%,and 90. 3%,respectively ( P=0. 001);the V20 values of the brain stem were 74. 2%, 62. 3%,and 67. 1%,respectively ( P=0. 032);the V30 values of the brain stem were 50. 9%,35. 8%,and 45. 5%, respectively ( P= 0. 020 );the V40 values of brain stem were 24. 4%, 14. 4%, and 23. 3%, respectively ( P=0. 018);the Dmean values of hippocampus were 1 518,899,and 896 cGy,respectively ( P=0. 000);the D40% values of hippocampus were 1 379,642,and 639 cGy,respectively ( P=0. 000);the V10 values of the hippocampus were 54. 1%,25. 1%,and 3. 8%,respectively ( P=0. 000);the V20 values of the hippocampus were 26. 2%, 12. 6%, and 12. 0%, respectively ( P=0. 001 ) . Conclusions Hippocampal?sparing VMAT and nine fixed?fields IMRT can significantly reduce the dose to the hippocampus without affecting dose distribution of target volume and OARs. VMAT may be superior to IMRT because VMAT can simultaneously reduce the dose to the brain stem.

Objective Myofascial pain syndrome (MPS) is a common muscle function disturbance.This study was to investigate the clinical value of acoustic radiation force impulse (ARFI) imaging in assessing the therapeutic effect of acupuncture for patients with trapezius MPS.Methods A total of 116 patients diagnosed with trapezius MPS received acupuncture therapy once a day for 10 days in Pudong Hospital from August 2015 to June 2016.Using ARFI imaging, we recorded the shear wave velocity (SWV) of the trapezius and obtained the short-form McGill Pain Questionnaire (SF-MPQ) scores of the patients before, at the end of, and at 7, 15 and 30 days after treatment.Then, we analyzed the interaction and correlation between the SWV values and SF-MPQ scores of the patients at different time points.Results Both the SF-MPQ scores and SWV values were first decreased, falling to lowest values (5.19 points and 1.43 m/s) at 7 days after treatment, and then increased again.The interaction between the SF-MPQ scores and SWV values were significantly different at different time points (Finteraction=2.553, Pinteraction=0.038), and there was a strong linear correlation between the two indexes (r=0.755, P=0.000).Conclusion ARFI imaging combined with SF-MPQ has a certain clinical value in assessing the effect of acupuncture on trapezius MPS.

Objective To investigate the causes and prevention of postoperative pain of laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal (TAPP) and Lichtensteinrepair in the treatment of adult recurrent inguinal hernia.Methods Sixty adult recurrent inguinal hernia patients were enrolled in this study.They were divided into TAPP group and Lichtenstein group by random digits table,with 30 cases in each group.At 6 h Mter operation,the pain degree was evaluated by visual analogue scale (VAS) and compared between two groups.The level of VAS in TAPP group was (3.76 ± 1.47) scores,in Lichtenstein group was (6.36 ± 1.54) scores,and there was significant difference (t =-5.978,P =0.000).In TAPP group,pain was mainly moderate (17 cases,56.67％) and mild (11 cases,36.67％).In Lichtenstein group,pain was mainly moderate (14 cases,46.66％) and severe (13 cases,43.33％).Postoperative follow-up ranged from 6 to 48 months.No chronic pain appeared in TAPP group.There were 4 cases with chronic pain in Lichtenstein group,and the incidence rate of chronic pain was 13.3％.Conclusions The operation of TAPP in the treatment of recurrent inguinal hernia in adult patients has the advantage of shorter operation time,less postoperative pain,faster postoperative recovery,and can effectively reduce the incidence of postoperative pain.

Objective To compare the clinical efficacy of laparoscopic repair of laparoscopic transabdominal preperitoneal(TAPP)and Lichtenstein tension-free repair herniorrhaphy in the treatment of recurrent inguinal hernia in adults,and to explore the clinical advantages of TAPP in the treatment of recurrent inguinal hernia.Methods A retrospective analysis was conducted in 54 adult patients with recurrent inguinal hernia from December 2010 to January 2015.The patients were randomly divided into TAPP group and Lichtenstein group.The operation time,intraoperative bleeding volume,postoperative hospitalization time,cost of hospitalization,postoperative complications,early postoperative pain and the recurrence of hernia were compared between the two groups.Results All patients were successfully completed surgery.The operation time of TAPP group (47.2 ±9.4)min was significantly shorter than (73.1 ±10.4)min of Lichtenstein group (t=-2.503,P=0.034).The median amount of bleeding during operation of TAPP group was 40(15 -110)ml,which was significantly less than 73(11 -130)ml in Lichtenstein group (t=-6.018,P=0.000). Postoperative hospital stay of TAPP group[(6.5 ±1.4)d]was shorter than (8.2 ±1.6)d of the Lichtenstein group (t=-2.613,P=0.028).Early postoperative pain score of TAPP group[(1.8 ±1.2)points]was better than (2.9 ± 1.4)points in Lichtenstein group (t=-7.006,P=0.000),the difference was statistically significant.However,the hospitalization cost of TAPP group[(8 842.8 ±415.2)yuan]was higher than (6 676.9 ±327.6)yuan of the Lichtenstein group,the difference was statistically significant(t=6.782,P<0.05).In TAPP group,2 cases had complications after operation,which were less than 5 cases of Lichtenstein group.Postoperative follow up ranged from 6 to 48 months,1 case of recurrence in Lichtenstein group,the recurrence rate was 3.8%.There was no recurrence in the TAPP group.Conclusion TAPP has the advantages of short operation time,less bleeding,rapid postoperative recovery,less postoperative pain and so on.It can be used as a recommended procedure for the treatment of recurrent inguinal hernia in adults.

Objective:To analyze morphological character of lateral tibial plateau fracture fragment, and its correlation to the presence of a meniscus injury in tibial plateau fractures.Methods:A total of 79 consecutive patients of the simple lateral tibial plateau fractures from July 201 1 to July 2015 were inclu-ded in this study,with 65 males and 14 females with an average age of (34.3 ±7.2)years and 22-61 years.According to Schatzker classification,21 cases were of Type Ⅰ,41 cases Type Ⅱ,and 17 cases Type Ⅲ.The characteristics of lateral tibial plateau fractures were evaluated by plain X-ray and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI ).The type and severity of meniscus injury were diagnosed by MRI scan. Three-dimensional measurements of the lateral fragment width (LFW),the lateral plateau depression (LPD),the coronal angulation of lateral fragment (CALF),and tibial plateau widening (TPW)were measured with Picture Archiving and Communication Systems(PACS)software.The patients with and without meniscus injuries were divided into different groups and analyzed respectively.Comparison of the above measurements between the two groups was analyzed by independent t test.Results:In all the 79 lateral tibial plateau fracture patients,26 cases (32.9%)of meniscus injuries were detected by MRI. Among all the meniscus injury cases,3 were of SchatzkerⅠ,16 SchatzkerⅡ,and 7 SchatzkerⅢ.In meniscus intact group,the average LFW was (22.0 ±2.8)mm while in meniscus injury group it was (21.3 ±3.3)mm (t =-1.008,P =0.317).The average LPD of non meniscus injury group was (5.4 ±2.8)mm,while in meniscus injury group was (8.7 ±2.8)mm (t=4.98,P=0.001).The average CALF of the two groups were 9.1°±6.1°and 10.6°±7.1°,and there was no significant dif-ference between the two groups (t=0.38,P=0.831).The average TPW was (3.0 ±1.1)mm,and (4.8 ±1 .7 )mm of the two groups.There were significant differences between the two groups (t =5.216,P=0.001).Conclusion:There was no obvious correlation between the LFD and meniscus inju-ry.The CALF of lateral tibial plateau fracture had no significant correlation with meniscus injury either. The degree of LPD and TPW may indicate injury of the meniscus in tibial plateau fractures.

Objective To investigate the feasibility of prophylactic cranial irradiation with hippocampal avoidance (HA-PCI) in non-small cell lung cancer (NSCLC).Methods The clinical data of 56 patients with brain metastases of NSCLC who were treated from 2011 to 2014 were collected.Brain metastases and the hippocampus were delineated on T1 W1 contrast-enhanced MRI,and the distance between brain metastases and the hippocampus was analyzed;an HA-PCI regimen was also developed,and the distribution of the metastases in planning target volume (PTV) low-dose regions around the hippocampus was analyzed.Results None of the 139 metastases involved the hippocampus.There were 6(4.3％) and 18 (12.9％) metastases within 5 mm and 10 mm,respectively,outside the hippocampus.In the HA-PCI regimen,the D50％ and D2％ of PTV were 25.6 Gy and 27.1 Gy,respectively.Dmean and D2％ for the hippocampus were 7.4 Gy and 9.9 Gy,respectively;D50％ within 0-5.0 mm,5.1-10.0 mm,and 10.1-15.0 mm outside the hippocampus was 10.3 Gy,15.1 Gy,and 20.5 Gy,respectively.Conclusions HA-PCI may be feasible theoretically,but this needs to be confirmed by the intracranial failure pattern in patients with long-term survival.

To explore the clinical value of repairing massive soft tissue defects of shank and foot with diverse combined flaps with the help of 3D-CTA technique. Methods From March, 2011 to May, 2018, 7 pa-tients with massive soft tissue defects (defect area:21 cm×14 cm-53 cm×16 cm) of shank and foot were treated with combined flaps, including free anterolateral thigh flaps(ALTP) combined with local transferred sural neurocuta-neous vascular flaps in 2 cases, free ALTP combined with local transferred supracondylar flap in 2 cases, free thora-co-umbilical flaps plus local transferred gastrocnemius muscular flaps in 1 case, and free ALTP plus free thoraco-um-bilical flap in 1 case.Free ALTP and free thoraco-umbilical flap respectively combined with double bridge flaps using the both ends of posterior tibial vessel from the healthy limb to form vascular pedicles in 1 case. All cases received 3D-CTA to observe the distribution and anastomosis of perforator vessel. Regular followed-up was made post-opera-tively. Results All patients had been followed-up for 6-18 months. Outpatient service combined with telephone follow-up was adopted. All flaps survived, and flap shape, colour and lustre, elasticity got good recover. At the last follow-up, thermann scale function assessment: 4 cases were excellent, 2 were good, and 1 was fair. Conclusion It is a feasible and effective method to repair massive soft tissue defects of shank and foot using differently combined flaps. Although the surgery can be risky, the method can effectively reduce the rate of limb disability, restore the limb func-tion and shorten the course of treatment.Preoperative 3D-CTA can get the vessel anatomical structure and diameter at donor and recipient sites, which will guide the operation program design and implementation so as to shorten the oper-ation time and improve the accuracy rate of vascular anastomosis.
