OBJECTIVE: To study the therapeutic effect of treating knee arthropathy with total knee arthroplasty using rotating-platform knee prosthesis. METHODS: A total of 62 patients (74 knees) in Provincial Hospital Affiliated To Shandong University from January 2005 to January 2009 were selected, including 36 males (41 knees) and 26 females (33 knees), aged 52-79 years, mean aged 61.5 years; 28 cases with left knee, 22 cases with right knee and 12 cases of both knees. The cases were composed of 34 cases with osteoarthritis, 21 cases with rheumatoid arthritis and 7 cases with traumatic arthritis. All the patients received the total knee arthroplasty for the first time using rotating-platform knee prosthesis, no replacement of the patella. The clinical results of pre-operetion and after-operation were evaluated by the HSS knee rating score system. RESULTS: All the patients were followed-up for averaged 22 months (3-48 months) after operation. Incisions of all the cases were healed, and there was no infection and hematoma. Lower extremity deep venous thrombosis occurred in 2 cases at 3 days after operation. Swelling disappeared through drug treatment 10 days later. Pain and function of all the patients were obviously ameliorated after operation. The average HSS knee rating score was 44.99 (from 34 to 58) before total knee arthroplasty, which was improved to 88.78 (from 69 to 98), and the good-to-excellent rate was 98% (excellent 45 cases, good 16 cases, average 1 case). There were no signs of prosthetic dislocation or loosening in the X-ray films. CONCLUSION: Total knee arthroplasty using rotating-platform knee prosthesis owns advantages of easy surgical operation, tess complications, good recovery and satisfactory results in a short-term.

Objective:To compare the quality of life following total gastrectomy(TG) with that folliwng subtotal gastrectomy(SG) in patients with gastric carcinoma.Methods:Sixty-six patients underwent gastrectomy between 2003 and 2005 at the Department of General Surgery of the Qilu Hospital were enrolled into this study.Among them,15 underwent TG,42 accepted distal end subtotal gastrectomy(DSG) and 9 underwent proximal end(PSG) .The EORTC quality of life questionnaire QLQ-STO20 was used in the present retrospective study to assess follow quality of life of thes patients.The food-intake,local symptom and quality of life of the 3 groups were compared.Results:Patients recovered worse in short term after TG compared with PSG,but there was no statistical difference in the near future.But both of them were not as good as DSG.The contraflow was common and serious after PSG.The incidence rate of abdominal distension was high.Conclusion:The indication of TG for carcinoma of the superior part of stomach can be extented properly.Evidence-Based Medicine should be used to screen better reconstruction mode.On the base of radical cure,quality of life should be improved as far as possible.

Objective To assess the feasibility of chondrocyte and osteoblast composites in vitro cultured in bioreactor in repairing cartilage defects.Methods Marrow mesenchymal stem cells were isolated and cultured in vitro,and then were induced to chondrocytes and osteoblasts by growth factor.Chondrocytes and osteoblasts were cocultured in bioreactor for 21 days to form the composites.The adhesion,extension and proliferation of chondrocytes and osteoblasts were observed under scanning electron microscope.The cartilage defects on canine model were repaired with the chondrocyte and osteoblast composites.Results The induced chondrocytes and osteoblasts had fine adhesion,extension and proliferation in the β-TCP scaffold.The repaired tissues in experimental group maintained their thickness to the full depth of the original tissues.A statistical difference was observed between negative control group and experimental group(q=12.337 0,P ＜ 0.01)and between blank control group and experimental group (q=31.539 3,P ＜0.01).Conclusion Perfusion bioreactor makes chondrocyte and osteoblast survive and proliferate in a three-dimensional scaffold and increases the composition rate of the chondrocyte and osteoblast.

Objective To research clinical application of rotating platform knee prosthesis Gemini MK II in the total knee arthroplasty. Methods From August 2010 to July 2013, 87 patients (106 knees) underwent total knee arthroplasty using rotating platform knee prosthesis Gemini MK II. The average ages of the cases were 65.3 years (52-81 years). The clinical results were evaluated by the HSS knee rating score system as well as X-ray films. Results The patients were followed up for mean 24.2 months (7~40 months). The pain caused by the illness of knee obviously alleviated and the function of knee significantly improved. The complications such as osteolysis around the prosthesis, prosthesis loos-ening and dislocation of meniscus bearings were not found. The HSS knee rating score was (51.5±9.7) before total knee arthroplasty, which improved to (87.3±6.4), The difference was significant(P<0.01). Conclusion There are satisfactory results in a short time for rotating platform knee prosthesis Gemini MK II in the total knee arthroplasty. A long term follow-up is obviously necessary to make more precise statement about the knee replacement system.

Objective:The primary goal of this study is to explore the safety and effectiveness of a new modified eversion carotid endarterectomy (MECEA).Methods:This is a retrospective case series study. One hundred patients were consecutively treated with MECEA by the same operator at Department of Vascular Surgery,Peking Union Medical College Hospital from January 2019 to December 2023. There were 77 males and 23 females. The age was (66.0±8.6)years (range: 39 to 85 years). Twenty-four (24.0%) patients were symptomatic with the degree of carotid stenosis over 50%,76 patients (76.0%) were asymptomatic with the degree of stenosis over 70%. All these patients meet the indication of carotid endarterectomy. The main difference between MECEA and traditional eversion carotid endarterectomy was the anterior,lateral,and posterior walls of the internal carotid artery were incised obliquely from the origin of the internal carotid artery toward the common carotid artery,leaving the wall of internal carotid artery intact at the bifurcation. The surgical process,cardiovascular and cerebrovascular complications and other surgical complications were recorded. The incidences of complications,restenosis of intraoperative target lesions and re-intervention were collected during follow-up.Results:All procedures were performed successfully under general anesthesia. The total operation time was (36.5±10.1)minutes (range: 22 to 65 minutes),and carotid clamping time was (15.0±6.3)minutes (range: 7 to 31 minutes). One patient (1.0%) occurred postoperative cerebrovascular accident,1 patient (1.0%) developed cerebral hyperperfusion syndrome (CHS),and another 1 patient (1.0%) suffered myocardial infarction. All these patients were recovered after medical treatment within a week. The follow-up time( M(IQR)) was 24 (28) months (range: 6 to 62 months). Two patients (2.0%) were reported to have hemodynamically significant restenosis within 2 years,with one patient requiring intervention. No patient suffered from ipsilateral ischemic stroke. Conclusions:MECEA is a safe and effective surgical method of treating carotid artery stenosis. This method can reduce carotid clamping time and lowers the risk of ischemic stroke. Meantime,it preserves the integrity of the adventitia at the bifurcation of carotid artery,reduces the chance of restenosis. Moreover,it might be helpful to prevent postoperative CHS due to reducing damage to the carotid body and carotid sinus nerve.
