[Objective]To analyze and prevent postoperative dislocation after total hip replacement(THR). [Method]Among 311 cases of THR treated from Jan 2001 to Dec 2006,15 developed dislocation.These cases were retrospectively reviewed and their risk factors were investigated.[Result]Six months after THR,15 patients(4.82%) had postoperative dislocation.Among them 11 had primary procedure and 4 had revision procedure.The dislocation rates were 4.00% and 11.11%,respectively.This difference was statistically significant(P

0.05).The activities degrees of ankle joint also had no statistical difference.[Conclusion]According to the extent of the displacement of Cotton's fracture,we should make the right operative order and the incision,thus we can get results with anatomic reduction and shorten the operative time,which can help the patients make early exercises and get satisfactory effect.

To evaluate the treatment effect of the late avascular necrosis of femoral head with concentrated autologous bone marrow and impaction autologous bone graft. The clinical data of 35 patients with late avascular necrosis of femoral head treated with the above methods was analyzed retrospectively with the University of Pennsylvania staging system, and evaluated with Harris hip score system. Among the 35 patients, there were 8 at stage Ⅲ, 23 at stage Ⅳ and 4 at stage Ⅴ. The preoperative Harris hip scores ranged from 43-72 with the average scores of 49. The patients were followed up for at least one year with the mean time of 2 years and 3 months. Two patients (preoperative at stage Ⅴ) had received total hip replacement duo to severe pain and ostarthritis. The imageology in 5 patients showed that the femoral head appearance collapsed little compared with that before operation, but their subjective feelings were well. All the femoral heads of left patients remained the shape after operation, complains of pain disappeared or lessened. The overall successful rate was 94% (33/35). In Harris scale, there was 1 patient with 92 scores, 17 with 80-89 scores, 3 with 70-79 scores and 2 patients

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of free fibular flap of great toe without vein in repairing soft tissue defect of finger pulp.Methods:From June 2020 to January 2021, 8 cases of finger pulp soft tissue defect were repaired with free flap of fibular side of great toe without vein, including 6 males and 2 females, with an average age of 32(18-42) years old. The defect area of finger pulp was 1.0 cm×0.5 cm-1.8 cm×0.8 cm. The proper digital artery and digital nerve of the affected finger were anastomosed. All flaps did not carry reflux veins. The donor site of the toe was directly sutured. Postoperative routine anti infection, anti spasm and anticoagulant treatment was performed. Postoperative outpatient regular follow-up.Results:All flaps survived without vascular crisis, and the donor and recipient sites healed in the first stage. All patients were followed-up for an average of 6.4(4-12) months. At the last follow-up, the TPD was 6-8 mm, the hand function was evaluated according to the Trial Standard of Upper Limb Function Evaluation of Hand Surgery Society of Chinese Medical Association. Seven cases were excellent and 1 case was good.Conclusion:The free fibular flap of the great toe can be used to repair the small wound of finger pulp without carrying the draining vein, the flap can still survive. And it can provide a certain reference for the failure of anatomic separation of the draining vein.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of combined treatment of comminuted inferior pole patellar fracture with micro-plate and tension-band wire.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was conducted in 50 patients with comminuted inferior pole patellar fracture (AO classification of type 34-A1) admitted to First Affiliated Hospital of University of Science and Technology of China from October 2018 to October 2020, including 28 males and 22 females, aged 17-77 years［(51.4±11.5)years］. A total of 23 patients were treated with micro-plate combined with tension-band wire (Group A) and 27 patients were treated with cable wire looping combined with tension-band wire (Group B). Fracture union, union time and last follow-up evaluation of knee range of motion and Bostman score were compared between the two groups. Complications (infection, internal fixation failure, internal fixation irritation, etc.) were also observed.Results:All patients were followed up for 12-18 months［(14.1±2.1) months］. All patients had bone union, with no statistical difference between Group A［(9.9±1.8)weeks］and Group B［(10.3±1.4)weeks］in union time ( P>0.05). Knee range of motion was (129.2±9.7)° in Group A at the last follow-up, better than (122.3±11.0)° in Group B ( P<0.05). Knee Bostman score was (27.6±1.8)points in Group A, showing no statistical difference from that in Group B［(26.8±1.9)points］( P>0.05). There were no postoperative complications in Group A. Two patients with tension band shedding of Kirschner wire after fracture healing were found in Group B, with no special treatment given due to no obvious discomfort. Conclusions:For comminuted inferior pole patellar fracture, micro-plate combined with tension-band wire is more effective and provides better knee mobility with no complications of implant failure as compared with cable wire looping combined with tension-band wire. Therefore, the technique deserves clinical promotion.

Objective To explore the application value of quantitative assessment of emphysema using CT in CT subjective evaluation of normal population,and compare the quantitative parameters of emphysema among groups.Methods A total of 1 231 volunteers with negative results of subjective assessment in low dose CT screening were included in this study.The threshold of emphysema was set at -950 HU,and the total lung volume(TLV),total emphysema volume(TEV),emphysema index(EI)and 15th percentile lung density(PD15)were quantified.The presence of emphysema was defined by an EI higher than or equal to 5%.The volunteers were divided into different groups by gender and age,and the quantitative parameters were compared among different groups.Results A total of 102 cases of emphysema were detected in 1 231 volunteers,with a detection rate of 8.29%,with 76 male volunteers,accounting for 9.93%,and 26 female volunteers,accounting for 5.58%,respectively.There were statistically significant differences in TLV,TEV, EI and PD15 between genders and age groups,with TLV,TEV,EI higher and PD15 lower in male(P<0.001)and with TEV and EI higher in older than 60 years old group(P<0.001).Conclusion Quantitative assessment of emphysema using CT exhibites relatively high clinical value in CT subjective evaluation of normal population.There are statistically significant differences in the quantitative parameters of emphysema among different groups.

Objective To investigate the impact of quantitative measurement for lung volume using iterative model reconstruction (IMR),hybrid iterative reconstruction (iDose4 )and filtered back projection (FBP),and to compare the image noise between different reconstruction methods.Methods 70 subjects were performed with low-dose chest CT scan (Philips Brilliance 256 iCT),and the original data were reconstructed with IMR (algorithm:Routine,SharpPlus,Soft Tissue,level:1 - 3 ),iDose4 and FBP respectively.We set less than -950 HU as emphysema threshold,calculated the total lung volume (TLV),total emphysema volume (TEV),emphysema index (EI)and objective image noise (OIN),and then compared the quantitative parameters and OIN between different groups.Results All parameters showed a significantly statistical difference (P =0.000)except TLV (P =1.000).The TEV and EI are significant higher in IMR-S group than in other groups.The OIN in IMR-S-L1 group was the highest,and the FBP group was the second-highest.OIN in iDose4 group was lower than that in IMR-S groups but higher than that in IMR-R and IMR-ST group.Conclusion SharpPlus algorithm of IMR will affect the quantitative measurement of lung volume under low-radiation-dose condition,and the OIN in IMR-S groups is obvious.Therefore SharpPlus algorithm is not recommended for quantitative analysis of lung volume.The Routine and Soft Tissue algorithm will not affect the quantitative measurement,and can distinctly reduce the OIN compared with idose4 and FBP.

Objective To develop and validate the radiomics nomogram on the discrimination of lung invasive adenocarcinoma from'non-invasive'lesion manifesting as ground glass nodule(GGN)and compare it with morphological features and quantitative imaging. Methods One hundred and sixty pathologically confirmed lung adenocarcinomas from November 2011 to December 2014 were included as primary cohort. Seventy-six lung adenocarcinomas from November 2014 to December 2015 were set as an independent validation cohort. Lasso regression analysis was used for feature selection and radiomics signature building. Radiomics score was calculated by the linear fusion of selected features. Multivariable logistic regression analysis was performed to develop models. The prediction performances were evaluated with ROC analysis and AUC,and the different prediction performance between different models and mean CT value were compared with Delong test. The generalization ability was evaluated with the leave-one-out cross-validation method. The performance of the nomogram was evaluated in terms of its calibration. The Hosmer-Lemeshow test was used to evaluate the significance between the predictive and observe values.Results Four hundred and eighty-five 3D features were extracted and reduced to 2 features as the most important discriminators to build the radiomics signatures. The individualized prediction model was developed with age, radiomics signature, spiculation and pleural indentation, which had the best discrimination performance(AUC=0.934)in comparison with other models and mean CT value(P<0.05)and showed better performance compared with the clinical model(AUC=0.743,P<0.001).The radiomics-based nomogram demonstrated good calibration in the primary and validation cohort, and showed improved differential diagnosis performance with an AUC of 0.956 in the independent validation cohort. Conclusion Individualized prediction model incorporating with age, radiomics signature, spiculation and pleural indentation, presenting with radiomics nomogram, could differentiate IAC from'non-invasive'lesion manifesting as GGN with the best performance in comparison with morphological features and quantitative imaging.

Objective:To compare short-term clinical efficacy between femoral neck system (FNS) and cannulated compression screws (CCS) in the treatment of femoral neck fractures in young adults.Methods:Retrospectively analyzed were the data of 94 patients with femoral neck fracture who had been admitted to Department of Orthopedics and Traumatology, The First Affiliated Hospital to University of Science and Technology of China, Department of Orthopaedics, The First Affiliated Hospital to Anhui Medical University and Department of Orthopaedics, The Second Affiliated Hospital to Anhui Medical University from October 2019 to October 2020. They were divided into 2 groups according to their modes of internal fixation: a FNS group ( n=47) and a CCS group ( n=47). In the FNS group there were 30 males and 17 females with a mean age of (47.8±9.8) years; in the CCS group there were 26 males and 21 females with a mean age of (43.7±13.1) years. The 2 groups were compared in terms of operation time, incision length, intraoperative blood loss, fracture healing time, weight-bearing time, Harris hip score and complications. Results:There was no significant difference in preoperative general data or follow-up duration between the 2 groups, showing comparability between groups ( P>0.05). In the FNS group, operation time [(47.7±9.4) min] was significantly shorter than that in the CCS group [(66.1±3.8) min], postoperative partial and full weight-bearing time [2.0 (2.0, 3.0) weeks, (6.4±2.1) weeks] significantly earlier than that in the CCS group [8.0 (3.0, 9.0), (10.1±3.4) weeks], fracture healing time [3.0(3.0, 4.0) months] significantly shorter than that in the CCS group [3.0(3.0, 4.0) months], Harris hip score at the last follow-up [95.0 (93.0, 95.0) points] significantly higher than that in the CCS group [90.0 (88.0, 95.0) points], incidence of lateral thigh irritation [0% (0/47)] significantly lower than that in the CCS group [31.9% (15/47)], and neck shortening length (4.3±3.9 mm) significantly shorter than that in the CCS group (6.9±4.5 mm) (all P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the rate of avascular necrosis of the femoral head or rate of internal fixation failure between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:In the treatment of femoral neck fractures in young adults, compared with CCS fixation, FNS fixation can shorten operation time and fracture healing time, allow patients to ambulate early after surgery, which is beneficial to maintenance of femoral neck length and to functional recovery of the hip.
