Objective To explore the therapeutic efficacy of modified Taohong Siwu Decoctio n(TSD) combined with limited internal fixation and external fixation for the treatment of tibial plateau fracture of Schatzker type Ⅴand Ⅵ. M ethods A total of 31 cases of tibial plateau fractures of Schatzker type Ⅴ and Ⅵ treated with TSD orally combined with limited internal fixation and external fixation were enrolled into the study. Follow-up was carried out for the evaluation of therapeutic effect and postoperative complications. Results All of the cases received follow-up for 6 months to 3 years. According to Merchant scoring criteria, the therapeutic effect was excellent for 15 cases, good for 12 cases, acceptable for 3 cases and inferior for one case, with the excellent and good rate being 87.1%. One case had pin tract infection, and then was cured after symptomatic treatment. Conclusion For tibial plateau fracture of Schatzker typeⅤandⅥwith unsatisfactory skin state, we can perform limited internal fixation and external fixation to take the place of strong steel plate fixation with extensive exposure for surgical treatment, and then give postoperative oral use of TSD, which will be a safe and effective therapy for the fracture by promoting the relief of the clinical symptoms and signs of early fracture.

Objective To investigate the influencing factors of treatment decision dilemma in the pa-tients with intracranial aneurysm.Methods A total of 210 patients with intracranial aneurysms hospitalized in the neurosurgery department of this hospital from January to December 2022 were selected as the research subjects.The questionnaire survey on the patients was conducted by using the general data questionnaire,De-cision Dilemma Scale (DDS),Perceptive Social Support Scale (PSSS) and Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS).Results The scores of decisional dilemma,perceived social support,anxiety and depression of the patients with intracranial aneurysm were (38.08±14.05) points,(50.59±3.38) points,(11.12±3.46) points and (9.56±2.11) points respectively.The multiple linear regression analysis showed that the age,fam-ily per capita monthly income,aneurysm diameter,social support and anxiety were the main influencing fac-tors of treatment decision dilemma in the patients with intracranial aneurysm (P<0.05).Conclusion The de-cision-making dilemma in the patients with intracranial aneurysms is in a moderate level.Medical care staff should for-mulate the targeted decision support measures according to the patient' s age,economic status,aneurysm size,patient's social support and anxiety situation to help the patients to improve their decision-making level.
