Objective To evaluate transsphincteric operation (Mason operation) for rectal tumors.Methods Retrospective study was used to analyze the experience of Mason operation for 150 patients with mid and lower rectal tumors between Aug 1990 to Dee 2008. Results There were villous adenoma in 75 cases,early rectal cancer in 48 and advanced rectal cancer in 9,submucosal carcinoid nodule in 23.Of the 126 rectal tumor patients,120 underwent partial rectectomy,6 underwent segmental rectectomy.Seventeen out of the 21 rectovaginal fistula or rectourethral fistula cases underwent successful one-stage repair.Six patients(4%)developed wound infection.Five patients(3.3%)were complicated with recto-cutaneous fistula.Two patients(4.3%) suffered from local recurrence in 46 followed up early staged rectal carcinoma with a five-year survival rate of 84.5%(39/46).On discharge from hospital no patient suffered from incontinence.Conclusion Mason operation is satisfactory with good exposure and simple access to the rectum,which Was suitable for those lesions that could be locally resected on mid and lower rectum.

Objective To investigate the brain protective effects of isoflurane preconditioning for local cerebral is-chemia adult rat model by detecting HIF-1α, HO-1 and Bcl-2 expression level. Methods 84 two-month old Spra-gue-Dawley male rats were randomly divided into sham group, ischemia-reperfusion group ( MCAO group) and isoflurance preconditioning group (ISO group). ISO group was exposed to isoflurane for 30 min and then underwent a 90 min middle cerebral arterial occlusion (MCAO), while MCAO group underwent MCAO only. At 24 h after reperfusion all the groups were investigated by modified neurological severity score for neurological deficits, TTC staining for infarct percentage. Cerebral cortices were harvested for HIF-1α, HO-1 and Bcl-2 protein expression level detection at 6 h, 24 h and 72 h after reperfusion using RT-PCR and western blot. Results The mNSS score and infarct percentage in ISO group decreased significantly compared with those of MCAO group at 24 h after reper-fusion(P < 0. 05). Compared with the MCAO group, ISO group had significantly up-regulated protein levels of HIF-1α, HO-1 and Bcl-2 at 6 h and 24 h after reperfusion(P < 0. 05). There was no difference between ISO group and MCAO group for 3 gene expression at 72 h(P > 0. 05). Conclusion Isoflurane preconditioning plays short-term cerebral protective effect through the up regulation of HIF-1α, HO-1 and Bcl-2 gene expression.

Objective To evaluate the clinical manifestation and the treatment strategy of the scoliosis associated with Chiari malformation and /or syringomyelia. Methods Fifty-two cases suffered from scoliosis with Chiari malformation and /or syringomyelia were divided into three groups for surgical treatment: 1) Group 1: 18 cases had scoliosis with Chiari Ⅰmalformation and /or syringomyelia without obvious neurologic impairment, their scoliosis was corrected with posterior instrumentation, but their Chiari Ⅰmalformation and syringomyelia were left untreated surgically. 2) Group 2: 12 patients, whose scoliosis was not indicated for surgery but those Chiari malformation associated with syringomyelia, underwent posterior sub-occipital craniectomy to enlarge foramen occipital magnum, C1 posterior arch decompression, duraplasty and syrinx-subarachnoid space shunting no matter whether neurologic deficits were present or not. 3) Group 3: 22 cases in addition of correction of scoliosis, due to neurologic deficits caused by Chiari Ⅰmalformation or syringomyelia, two-stage surgery was indicated: firstly, with posterior suboccipital craniectomy to enlarge foramen occipital magnum, C1 posterior arch decompression, duraplasty and syrinx-subarachnoid space shunting 6 months later, then underwent the scoliosis correction with instrumentation. Results In 34 patients who underwent craniovertebral decompression, only 6 of the 24 cases with preoperatively neurologic deficits achieved mild improvement within 6 months postoperatively. In 40 patients who were treated with posterior correction for scoliosis, the average frontal correction was 63% and the average sagittal correction was 80% for scoliosis less than 90?, the average frontal correction was 49% and the average sagittal correction was 74% for scoliosis more than 90?. At a follow-up of 6 months to 5 years, the average loss of the frontal correction was 6%. Conclusion Scoliosis associated with Chiari malformation and /or syringomyelia can be effectively treated with the similar results, as for adolescent idiopathic scoliosis. The mainstay for diagnosis is MR imaging. Accurate diagnosis and proper treatment for Chiari malformation or syringomyelia before scoliosis surgery will improve the rate of scoliosis correction, decrease the neurological complications.

Objective To evaluate the biomechanical basis and long term clinical outcome of the offset hook-screw combined instrumentation in preventing against correction loss after it is used to treat the unstable thoracolumbar fractures. Methods Of 98 cases treated with the offset hook-screw combined instrumentation from July 1997 to December 2002, 64 with follow-up over two years were reviewed. All 64 cases received operation within average 3.2 days after injury, of which 41 were fixated with CD or CD-Horizon instrumentation and 23 with TSRH instrumentation. The long term clinical outcome evaluation included the maintenance of the vertebral height restoration, the sagittal kyphotic Cobb angle loss and the coronal Cobb angle correction loss. Results No death occurred. But after operation, there was one case with worsened neurological deficits (recovered one week after surgery) and two with deep infection. The average post-operative vertebral height and the coronal Cobb angle were restored by 89.0% and 100.0% respectively and the sagittal kyphotic Cobb angle corrected from preoperative 31?to postoperative -1? . During the follow-up for 24-62 months, no instrumentation breakage occurred. The pseudoarthrosis was affirmed in one case and suspected in two with the vertebral height loss of 8.6% and the kyphotic Cobb angle correction loss of 4?respectively. Conclusions The offset hook-screw combined instrumentation can satisfactorily restore the normal sagittal profile, effectively prevent the fixation loosening or breakage, minimize the mechanical failure of instrumentation, and particularly reduce the loss of long-term correction.

Objective To investigate the pubertal growth patterns and anthropometric characteristics of the patients with adolescent idiopathic scoliosis(AIS) by anthropometry measurements. Methods The anthropometric data of 256 AIS girls were collected. The mean age of diagnosis was 14.1 years old(from 12 to 16 years old). The children with more than 10 degree of the scoliosis angle at coronal level were diagnozed as AIS. The control group consisted of 462 age-matched health girls. Four variables were measured: height, sitting height, arm span and menstrual states. Height and sitting height were adjusted using Bjure formula to make up the height loss from spinal deformity. The above variables were analyzed between AIS group and the controls. Results There were no differences in the composition of age between two groups. There were no significant differences in height,sitting height and arm span between the 256 cases of AIS girls and the 462 controls. However, the corrected height and sitting height were significantly higher in AIS than those of the controls. The menstrual onset time was earlier in AIS than that in controls. There were no statistical differences in corrected height, corrected sitting height and arm span between AIS girls and the controls at the age group of 12 years old. On the contrary, the AIS girls showed shorter uncorrected height than the controls did at this age. However, the scoliotic girls were found in the corrected height, the corrected sitting height and the arm span significantly taller than the controls between ages of 13 and 15 years. There were significant differences in corrected height and corrected sitting height between AIS girls and the controls at the age of 16 years old, while no difference were found in the variables of height, sitting height and arm span. Conclusion There is an abnormal growth pattern in AIS during pubertal growth spurt, which may be related to the pathogenesis of AIS.

1 mm); A, the screw tip was adjacent to the aorta (≤1 mm); C, the screw tip was felt to be against the aorta and creating contour deformity. The angle composed of the central line of the screw and the central line of vertebral body on posterior X-ray film was also measured. Results The average correction of the main thoracic curve was 77.7% postoperatively. 155 screws were inserted, of which 134 screws(86.5%) had a bicortical purchase. 123 screws(79.4%) were distant from the aorta. Two screws encroached into the spinal canal. There were no significant difference between the proximal screws, the periapical screws and the distal screws. There were no vascular or neurologic complications or instrumentation failure during operation or follow-up. Conclusion Mini-open anterior correction for type Lenke 1 scoliosis enable a satisfy bicortical screw placement and curve correction. Sequential CT scan before surgery may improve the accuracy of screw placement, thus avoid the aortic or neurologic complication.
