Objective:
To evaluate the diagnostic value of CT perfusion (CTP) for posterior circulation cerebral ischemia and hyperacute phase of cerebral infarction.
Methods:
CTP was performed in 184 patients with suspected posterior circulation acute ischemic stroke, and diffusion weighted imaging (DWI) of MRI was performed 24-72 hours after onset. According to the characteristics of various perfusion parameters, the perfusion defect area in CTP was divided into group Ⅰ (compensatory phase of cerebral circulation reserve), group Ⅱ (compensatory phase of cerebral metabolism reserve), group Ⅲ (hyperacute phase of cerebral infarction). The region of interest (ROI) in each perfusion defect area and the contralateral mirror perfusion normal area was delineated, and the mean values of regional cerebral blood flow (rCBF), regional cerebral blood volume (rCBV), mean transit time (MTT), and time to peak (TTP) in the ROI were recorded. The perfusion parameters of normal brain tissue were included in group Ⅳ (normal control group). One-way analysis of variance was used to compare the overall differences in CTP parameters measured in each group in each region, and the multiple comparisons were performed to assess statistical differences between the perfusion parameters of groups in all parts of the posterior circulation. The sensitivity, specificity and accuracy of CTP in evaluating the hyperacute phase of cerebral infarction in various parts of the posterior circulation were calculated by using DWI as a standard.
Results:
A total of 271 cerebral ischemia or cerebral infarction lesions were detected in 184 patients, 107 in group Ⅰ, 75 in group Ⅱ, and 89 in group Ⅲ. There were statistically significant differences in the perfusion parameters of each group and each part of the posterior circulation (

BACKGROUND:Legacy posterior stabilized prosthesis has advantages in theoretic design,in vitro kinematics and abrasion, but it remains unclear whether its clinical outcomes for vaglus knee deformity are better than Legacy constrained condylar knee prosthesis. OBJECTIVE:To explore the midterm folow-up effect of Legacy posterior stabilized prosthesis in total knee arthroplasty in patients with valgus knee deformity. METHODS: From February 2006 to November 2013 in Department of Bone and Joint Surgery, Affiliated Hospital of Luzhou Medical Colege, total knee arthroplasty was used to treat valgus knee deformity in 33 cases (35 knees). Parapatelar medial approach was used. Precise osteotomy was utilized to correct limb alignment. Lateral soft tissue received selective release. Finaly, an equal type of Legacy posterior stabilized prosthesis (Zimmer, USA) was implanted and fixed with antibiotic bone cement. The differences in hospital for special surgery knee score, range of motion of knee, femoral tibial angle, and maximum flexion and extension angle, as wel as X-ray film results were compared and analyzed before and after replacement. The complications including deep vein thrombosis, peri-prosthetic infection, patelar clicking, unstable knee, and common peroneal nerve injury were recorded after surgery. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Al patients were folowed up for 24-50 months. The incision was healed in one-stage. No complications such as peri-prosthetic infection appeared. Three patients suffered from common peroneal nerve palsy, which was cured at half a year after surgery by expectant treatment such as trophic nerve. Two cases suffered from knee instability after replacement, which was improved at 1 month after external fixation with a brace. One case experienced deep vein thrombosis in the lower extremity, which was improved after treatment with low molecular weight heparin anticoagulation. During final folow-up, hospital for special surgery knee score increased from (51.85±4.15) preoperatively to (85.77±2.50) postoperatively (P < 0.01). There were excelent in 20 knees, good in 11 knees, with an excelent and good rate of 89%. X-ray films showed that hindlimb alignment was apparently corrected, prosthetic position was good, no loosening occurred. These data indicate that total knee arthroplasty, using parapatelar medial approach, obtained good correction outcomes through the accurate amputation to correct hindlimb alignment and selective release of the soft tissue with Legacy posterior stabilized prosthesis in the treatment of valgus knee deformity.
