Objective To compare the clinical effect for treatment of scapula neck or body fractures by straight incision approach and the Judet approach.Methods From July 2001 to July 2011,32 patients with scapula neck or body fractures were treated using the two different approaches:(1) the straight incision approach in 15 patients including 11 males and 4 females,the average age of 38.10 years,fractures classified by Ada-Miller including 4 ⅡA,6 ⅡB and 5 Ⅳ; (2) the Judet approach in 17 patients including 12 males and 5 females,the average age of 39.47 years,fractures classified by Ada-Miller including 5 ⅡA,4 ⅡB and 8 Ⅳ.All patients were followed up.Intraoperative data and postoperative pain of two groups were compared by visual analogue score (VAS),the efficacy were evaluated by Rowe-Zarins scores and the patient's postoperative shoulder function were assessed by Constant-Murley functional score.Results All fractures were preliminary healed after 8 weeks of surgery,there was no wound infection,no internal fixation loosening,no shoulder deformity and other complication.Length of incision,operative time and blood loss of straight incision approach was 6.73±0.96 cm,58.67±4.39 min,94.25±6.14 ml and length of incision,operative time and blood loss of Judet approach was 18.88±1.41 cm,82.24±4.49 min,227.77±23.08 ml.VAS of straight incision approach and Judet approach were 2.60±1.55 and 4.65±1.93,mild and moderate postoperative pain evaluated by VAS were significant differences between two groups.The excellent rate by Rowe-Zarins scores of straight incision approach and Judet approach were 93.3％(14/15) and 88.2％(15/17),they were no significant differences.There was no significant differences in the shoulder joint mobility and muscle strength of Constant-Murley functional score between two groups.However,pain and daily life of Constant-Murley functional score were significant differences between two groups and Constant-Murley functional score of straight incision approach and Judet approach were 85.60±3.31 and 80.65±3.44.Conclusion Compared with Judet approach,straight in cision approach has many advantages,such as a short time of surgery,minor injury,light postoperative pain,good postoperative functional recovery.It is the better surgical approach for the treatment of scapular fractures.

Objective To evaluate the double-arterial phase and portal venous phase scanning in the detection of hepatocellular carcinoma with multi-slice sprial CT (MSCT).Methods Ninety-four patients with hepatocellular carcinoma were examined by abdominal plain CT and early areterial phase (EAP),late arterial phase(LAP),portal venous phase(PVP).Contrast agent of 100 ml (300 mg I/ml) was administrated intravenously by 3 ml/s,for scanning of EAP at 20 to 22 s,LAP at 34 to 37s.and PVP at 60 s.Chi-square test was carried out to compare the sensitivity among various phases.Resuits A total 0f 318 1esions was detected pathologically,with 86 lesions less than 3 cm in size and 232 lesions more than 3 cm.For the early arterial phase,late artefial and portal venous phase,the sensitivity was 39.5%(34),67.4%(58),44.2%(38)respectively for the small tumors,which showed significant differences between phases(X2=15.38,P<0.01).For the large tumors,the sensitivity was 89.6%(208),99.6%(231), 99.1%(230),respectively(X2=39.09,P<0.01).All had positive predictive values of 100%.If the tumors were taken together,the sensitivity was 76.1%(242),90.9%(289),84.3%(268).and the positive predictive value was 88.3%(242/274),86.3%(289/335),93.7%(268/286)for the early arterial phase,late arterial and portal venous phase respectively.There was significant difference of sensitivity and positive predictive value between phases(X2=25.62,9.29,P<0.05).Conclusion Double-arterial phase could improve the detection of tumors,especially for small hepatocellular earcinoma. and late arterial phase scanning is particularly important.

Objective To compare magnetic resonance spectroscopy (MRS) characteristics and changes before and after 5-Fu interventional thermochemotherapy (ITC) as well as to analyze the correlation of Cho/Lip and apoptosis index (AI) in hepatic VX2 carcinoma animal model.Methods 20 rabbit models of hepatic VX2 carcinoma were implanted successfully.Ten days later,as tumor diameter≥ 10 mm,routine scan and 1H-MRS were performed before one day and after 14 days on all of rabbits by Philips 1.5T MR scanner.The changes of Cho peak,Lip peak and the ratio of Cho/Lip before and after the treatment were analyzed.Specimens of AI were examined and compared with the ratio of Cho/Lip.Results The Cho peak and Lip peak were increased before ITC.After ITC,the Cho peak and the ratio of Cho/Lip decreased than before.The Lip peak was further increased than that of before.AI was correlated negatively with the ratio of Cho/Lip (r =-0.56,P =0.02).Conclusions The metabolites of different ROI are matched with the levels and scopes of AI.1H-MRS can be used to evaluate tumor cell apoptosis and energy metabolism changes of the rabbit models of hepatic VX2 carcinoma with the treatment.

Objective To observe imaging characteristics and changes of vivo two-dimension multi-voxel proton magnetic resonance spectroscopy (~1H-MRS) in the rabbit models of VX2 hepatic carcinoma after high intensity focused ultrasound (HIFU) treatment. Methods VX2 hepatic carcinoma models were established in 20 New Zealand rabbits. Routine MR and 2-dimentional ~1H-MRS scanning were performed before and after HIFU treatment. The central regions of interest (ROI) of the VX2 tumor, tumor border and paratumor normal liver tissues were selected. The Cho/Cr and Lip/Cr of the same ROI before and after HIFU treatment were compared. Results Total 28 satisfied spectrogram diagram of ~1H-MRS were brought into statistical analysis. Of all the spectra, 6 metabolite peaks were detected as lipids (Lip), glutamine and glutamate complex (Glx), choline (Cho), lactate (Lac) and creatine (Cr). Cho and Lac peak in tumor center and tumor border regions after HIFU treatment were higher than those before HIFU treatment. Lip peak was lower than before, and major metabolites of paratumor normal liver tissues did not changed significantly. Statistical differences of Cho/Cr and Lipid/Cr of tumor center and border region were found between before and after HIFU treatment (P＜0.05). Conclusion Two-dimension multi-voxel ~1H-MRS can reflect major changes in the level of metabolites of different ROI for hepatic VX2 carcinoma after HIFU treatment.

Objective To discuss the imaging technology and characteristic of perfusion-weighted imaging in rabbit models of hepatic VX2 tumors. Methods Twenty-eight New Zealand rabbits were implanted in liver with VX2 tumor by tissue block. After routine scans were performed on 1.5 T MR scanner, 28 New Zealand white rabbits with VX2 carcinoma were divided randomly into treatment group and control group. Treatment group was divided randomly into group A, group B and group C, 7 animals per group. Perfusion weighted imaging(PWI) was performed in day 14, 25 and 35, respectively, after tumor implantation in all animals. Select the regions of interest (ROI) of the VX2 tumor center, tumor border and pars-tumor parenchyma. Maximal signal reduction slope ( SRSmax ) of the signal intensity versus time curves were created as quantitative variable, and the parameters were calculated and compared in all groups. Results Maximal signal reduction slope ( SRSmax ) of the signal intensity versus time curves were studied in 4 groups, 23 VX2 rabbits,7,5 and 6 in group A , B and C, respectively. The SRSmax of tumor center were ( 12. 6 ± 3.4), ( 9. 8 ± 2. 6 ) and ( 1.0 ± 0. 4 ), the difference was significant ( F = 10. 855, P < 0. 05 ). The SRSmax of tumor border were(48. 3 ± 2.4), (46. 2 ± 1.5 ) and (43. 6 ± 1.8 ) ( P > 0. 05 ). The SRSmax of para-tumor parenchyma were ( 14.4 ± 3.0 ), ( 12. 2 ± 1. 4 ) and ( 14. 8 ± 5.0 ) ( P > 0. 05 ). The difference was significant in different ROI in treatment groups( F value was 7. 435,8. 625 and 12. 595, respectively, P < 0. 05 ). Conclusion PWI can be used in evaluating the liver tumor angiogenesis and angio-degeneration with the treatment of HIFU. It will be possible for qualitative analysis of rabbit models of hepatic VX2 tumors by different treatments.

Objective To explore operative indications,methods and effect of one stage total hip arthroplasty(THA)in treatment of acetabular fractures.Methods One stage total hip arthroplasty (THA)was carried out in 11 patients with acetabular fractures including 10 males and one female(at mean age of 42.4 years)8-37 days(mean24 days)after injury.There were anterior column fractures in three patients,posterior wall fracture in one,posterior column fracture in two,posterior column fracture combined with posterior wall fracture in two,transverse fracture in one,transverse fracture combined with posterior wall fracture in one and two-column fracture in one.Fresh acetabular fractures were first fixed with reconstruction plate or screws to restore shape of acestbular wall;then,granule or bulk of resected femoral head were implanted into acetabulum posterior to placement of acetabular cup prosthesis.While for old acetabular fractures,the resected femoral head was first implanted on acetabular superior wall and posterior wall and then acetabular cup prosthesis was placed.Results Follow-up for 6-45 months (mean 28 months)showed obdous improvement of hip joint function,with average Harris score of 78 points and average active degree of 95°.X-ray film presented loosening of acetabulum and osteolysis in one patient.All patients began weight bearing three months after operation,with no dislocation of joint prosthesis.Conclusions Under strict control of indications,one stage THA can be done for patients who miss operative reduction due to obvious acetabular fracture dislocation and severe articular cartilage injury.Stable aeetabular cup may beget satisfactory short-term clinical results.

Objective To investigate the imaging characteristic of DWI in rabbit models of hepatic VX2 tumors after three-dimensional stereotactic conformal radiation therapy, and the characteristics of apoptosis after radiotherapy. Methods Sixty hepatic VX2 tumor models were successfully created. After the tumor grew to more than 1 cm in diameter, 40 tumor models were treated with SCRT and then divided into four groups using random number table. The remaining 20 tumor models were used as controls and randomly assigned to each group. MR scanning were performed at different time points ( 1 st day, 5 th day, 10 th day, 15 th day) for each group respectively. ROIs of the VX2 tumor tissues and normal liver tissue were taken and ADC values were measured to calculate their ratios. Cell apoptesis were determined by using TUNEL method. ADC values with their ratios and the apoptotic index were analyzed using one-way analysis of variance and SNK test was used for comparison among different time points of groups, while two sample t test was used for comparison between the groups. Results On the 1 st day, 5 th day, 10 th day, and the 15 th day, the ADC ratios of the radiotherapy groups were 0.74 ±0. 15(n =8), 1.04 ±0.09(n =7), 1.43 ±0. 12 (n = 7 ), 1.25 ± 0. 23 (n = 8 ) (F = 24. 221, P ＜ 0. 01 ), the corresponding ADC ratios of control groups were 0. 78 ±0.07(n =5), 0.79 ±0.07(n=4), 0.83 ±0. 14(n =4), 0.97 ±0. 19(n =4). The ratios of ADC values for radiotherapy groups and control group were compared, and the t value was 0. 569 ( P ＞0.05), 4.417(P＜0.05), 7.259(P ＜0.01), 1.957(P＞0.05) respectively for each time point. On the 1 st day, 5 th day, 10 th day, 15 th day, the apoptotic index of the radiotherapy groups were 0. 39 ±0. 13(n=8), 0.29 ±0.08(n=7), 0.28 ±0.07(n=7), 0.58 ±0. 19(n=8,F=8. 128,P＜0.05), while the corresponding apoptotic index of control groups were 0. 26 ±0. 13(n =5), 0. 18 ±0. 03(n =4), 0. 16 ±0. 06(n =4), 0. 18 ±0. 08(n =4,F= 1. 006,P ＞0. 05). The apoptotic index value for radiotherapy groups and control group were compared, with t value of 1. 716 ( P ＞ 0.05 ), 2. 348 ( P ＜ 0. 05 ), 2. 386 ( P ＜0. 05 ), 3. 756( P ＜0.01 ) respectively. Conclusion DWI ADC values can reflect the dynamic changes of cell apoptosis in hepatic VX2 tumors after radiotherapy at different time points.
