Objective To explore the application of ultrasound-guided femoral and sciatic nerve blocks combined with general anesthesia in lower limb fracture surgery.Methods Sixty four patients who received orthopaedics surgerywere randomly divided into two groups including combined group(n =32),control group (n =32).Control group was given general anesthesia alone,combined group was givengeneral anesthesia combined with ultrasound-guided femoral and sciatic nerve blocks.The intraoperative hemodynamic state at different time,anesthetic dosage,and agitation after waking upbetween two groups were compared.Results Compared with T1 moment,HR and MAP at T2 moment in both groups were significantly decreased (P ＜ 0.05),while all these indicators at T3-T5 moment had no significant difference compared with the T1 moment in combined group (P ＞ 0.05),while the difference was significant in control group (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with control group,combined group had less intraoperative propofoland fentanyl dosage during the surgery,shorter awakening timeand extubation time,and the difference had statistical significance (P ＜ 0.05).The incidence of agitation after waking up and degree of agitation was significantly decreased in combined group than that in control group (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Ultrasound-guided nerve blockade combined with general anesthesia for lower limb fracture surgery,canmaintain the stability of intraoperative hemodynamics,reduce the dosage of analgesic drugs,and promote early awakening and extubation.

Along with increasing use of inferior vena cava (IVC) filter implantation, more and more attention has been paid to the filter - related complications by scholars both at home and abroad. For the present the generally accepted filter- related complications include filter deformation, filter tilt, filter fracture, filter migration, IVC perforation, IVC thrombosis, IVC occlusion, recurrence of pulmonary embolism, deep vein thrombosis (DVT), post - thrombosis syndrome (PTS), etc. Accurate recognition of filter - related complications and prompt use of appropriate measures that are directed against a given complication in order to reduce or avoid complications are of great clinical significance in applying the inferior vena cava filter to clinical practice in a more safe and effective way. This paper aims to make a comprehensive review about the filter- related complications and the research progress concerning their prevention in recent years.

Objective To evaluate the feasibility and efficacy of Separate stent placement in the palliative treatment of inoperable malignant gastroduodenal obstruction.Methods Thirty four consecutive patients with inoperable malignant gastroduoenal obstruction were treated with peroral placement of Separate stent. Gastroduodenal obstruction was caused by gastric ( n =11), pancreatic ( n =12), matastatic ( n =3), biliary duct ( n =6) or duodenal ( n =2) cancers. Separate outer partial covered stent overlapping with inner bare stent were placed coaxially under fluoroscopic guidance.Results The technical successful rate reached 97% (33 of 34) with no major complication. Symptoms of gastroduodenal obstruction relieved in 33 patients. The average score of food intake capacity improved from 3.8 to 1.2 after Separate stent placment. Stent migration and tumor ingrowth were not detected during the follow up period. Tumor overgrowth was confirmed in one patient and a second stent was placed to solve the problem.Conclusions Peroral placement of Separate stent is a feasible and effective treatment for patients with inoperable malignant gastroduodenal obstruction.

Objective To evaluate multi-slice spiral CT venography (MSCTV) and digital subtraction venography (DSV) in diagnosing iliac vein compression syndrome (IVCS) and secondary thrombosis. Methods The imaging materials, including MSCTV and DSV performed before and after the thrombolysis therapy, of 38 patients with clinically-suspected IVCS were collected. The inner diameters of the compressed iliac veins were measured on MSCTV images and the compression ratio was calculated. Usingχ2 test, the detection rates of IVCS by MSCTV and DSV were compared. Results Of 38 patients, IVCS was detected by MSCTV in 29, by pretreatment DSV in 20 and by post-treatment DSV in 29. The difference in the detection rate of IVCS between MSCTV and pre-treatment DSV was statistically significant (χ2=4.65, 0.010.05). Conclusion For the diagnosis of IVCS, MSCTV is superior to pre-treatment DSV in the diagnostic accuracy of iliac vein compression syndrome. Therefore, MSCTV should be used as the preferred method of examination.(J Intervent Radiol, 2015, 24:301-305)

Objective To evaluate the value of interventional therapy in treatment of iliac compression syndrome (ICS) and subsequent venous thrombosis. Methods Examined by DSA, 125 cases were diagnosed of iliac vein compression and subsequent thrombosis. In 39 cases of ICS ( group 1 ), left: right = 4.6: 1. In 86 cases of ICS complicated with subsequent thrombosis (group 2), left: right = 4.7: 1. The patients of iliac vein compression and compression-related iliac vein stenosis or occlusion without fresh thrombus were treated by percutaneous transluminal angioplasty (PTA) and self-expandable stenting. In those cases with fresh thrombosis the inferior vena cava filter were inserted before thrombosis suction, mechanical thrombus ablation, PTA, stenting and transcatheter thrombolysis. The Chi-square test for comparison of proportions was used to test statistical significance. Results In 39 cases of ICS, 38 cases were treated by PTA and stenting. In 86 cases of deep vein thrombosis complicated with ICS, 83 cases were treated by various interventional therapy. There was no significant difference in the efficiency of intraluminal treatment between the two groups at discharge (97.4% and 96.5%, X2 =0.000,P >0.05) and at 6 months follow-up(96.3% and 90.2%, X2 = 0.266, P > 0.05 ), the difference in excellent-good rate of the two groups was significant at discharge (94.9% and 79.1%, X2=3.879, P <0.05) and at 6 months follow-up (92.6% and 68.6% ,X2 =4.441,P <0.05). Conclusions Interventioual treatment for ICS and secondary thrombosis is safe and effective.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of modified storage type of autologous blood transfu-sion combined with shed blooding retransformation technique after OrthoPAT for artificial total knee arthroplasty. Methods 70 patients with total knee replacement were randomly divided into observation group and control group, 35 cases in each group.The observation group was treated with the modified storage autotransfusion combined shed blooding retransformation technique after OrthoPAT,while the control group was given conventional allogeneic blood transfusion.The hemoglobin values and blood coagulation function of the two groups at immediately before anesthesia and surgery,10min before autologous blood transfusion and after reinfusion of 15min,after 6h and 24h of surgery were recorded,and the drainage blood total value,allogeneic blood transfusion measurement issues and transfusion rate after 24h were recorded.Results The hemodynamics of the two groups were stable at each time,there were no difference at urine volume (all P >0.05).The coagulation conditions were normal of the two groups at each time,there were no statistically significant differences between the two groups (all P >0.05).The average volume and homologous blood transfusion rate in the observation group were (126.3 ±6.5)mL,1 /35,which were significantly lower than those in the control group [(476.4 ±10.6)mL,2 /35],the differences were statistically significant (t =10.73,χ2 =6.31,all P <0.05).The incidence rate of postoperative complication of the observation group was 5.7%,which was signifi-cantly lower than 22.9% of the control group,the difference between the two groups was statistically significant (χ2 =4.93,P <0.05).Conclusion The improved storage type of autologous blood transfusion combined with shed bloo-ding retransformation technique after OrthoPAT has exact effect for artificial total knee arthroplasty,the incidence of adverse reactions is low,as well as the low blood transfusion rate.
