Objective　To study the diagnosis, treatment and prognosis of hepatolithiasis combined with cholangiocarcinoma. Methods　The clinical, pathological and follow-up data of 17 cases of hepatolithiasis combined with cholangiocarcinoma were retrospectively analysed. Results　The results showed that the incidence of cholangiocarcinoma in hepatolithiasis was 5% in this series. 17.6% of the patients were diagnosed as cholangiocarcinoma preoperatively. Tumor occurring in intrahepatic ducts was 88.2% and in hepatic porta ducts 11.8%. Nine cases were well-differentiated adenocarcinomas. Only 7(41.2%) cases were radically resected and their average survival time was 26.0 months. Eight(47.1%) patients underwent internal drainage with average survival time 12.4 months. 2(11.7%) cases subject to external drainage with survival time 3.6 months. Conclusions　If patients with hepatolithiasis have a long history of recurrent cholangitis, weight-loss in a short period, progressive jaundice or intractable abdominal pain, the possiblility of combined with cholangiocarcinoma should be considered. Resection of the tumor has a better prognosis than that of tumor unresected; and the prognosis of internal drainage is better than that of external drainage.

Objective To investigate the clinical results of the treatment of complex femoral and tibial fractures using Grosse Kempf intramedullary interlocking nails. Methods Grosse Kempf intramedullary interlocking nails were used to treat 38 cases of complex femoral and tibial fractures. 12 cases of them were opened fractures, and 26 cases were closed. There were 24 cases of femoral fractures and 14 cases of tibial fractures. The average age was 33.6 years. Most of them were reduced under x ray monitoring. CPM rehabilitation started after the operation to gain the funtional recovey. After two weeks walking with crutches began. Results After the operation, all the wounds healed by first intention. The average union time of the fractures was 10.5 weeks (8～12 weeks). The average follow up period was 14.5 months. With all the cases rated as good or excellent, the clinical results were satisfactory. Conclusion Grosse-Kempf intramedullary interlocking nails are an effective, strong, convenient and secure implant to treat complex femoral and tibial fractures.

Objective:To investigate the long-term outcomes of minimally invasive Oxford phase Ⅲ unicompartmental knee arthroplasty (UKA) for patients with medial compartment osteoarthropathy.Methods:The clinical data of 594 patients (701 knees) who underwent minimally invasive UKA with Oxford phase Ⅲ unicompartmental prosthesis at Department of Orthopedics,the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from January 2007 to January 2016 were retrospectively analyzed.There were 155 males and 439 females,aged (62.6±10.9) years (range: 44 to 81 years),with a body mass index of (26.9±3.8) kg/m 2 (range: 21.1 to 36.2 kg/m 2).There were 359 left knees and 342 right knees,676 knees with osteoarthritis and 25 knees with idiopathic osteonecrosis of the medial femoral condyle.There were 487 cases underwent UKA (66 cases underwent UKA on one side and total knee arthroplasty on the other) and 107 cases underwent bilateral UKA.Patients′ prosthetic survival,complications,range of motion(ROM) of the knee,visual analogue score (VAS),Western Ontario and McMaster University (WOMAC) osteoarthritis index,and American knee society score (KSS) were collected to assess clinical outcomes.Paired sample t test was used to compare the data before and after operation. Results:All patients completed the surgery successfully.There was no intraoperative fractures,postoperative infections or symptomatic vascular embolic disease occurred.The postoperative complications,including mobile bearing dislocation,prosthesis loosening,tibial plateau collapse,the lateral compartment degeneration and postoperative pain were occurred in 18 cases (3.0%,18/594).Thirteen patients suffered complications were transferred to total knee arthroplasty,4 underwent partial revision,if this was used as the endpoint of the study,the surgical success rate was 97.1% (577/594) and the prosthetic revision rate was 2.9%.The ROM was improved from(105.9±11.8)°preoperatively to (114.0±13.3)° at the last follow-up ( t=10.796, P<0.01);the KSS clinical score was increased from 54.3±3.6 to 90.1±6.0 ( P<0.01) and the functional score was increased from 55.9±3.9 to 87.5±5.7( t=124.325, P<0.01; t=110.985, P<0.01).The WOMAC osteoarthritis index was decreased from 54.8±6.7 to 9.2±3.1 at the last follow-up( t=150.860, P<0.01) and the VAS was decreased from 6.1±1.1 to 1.5±1.0 at the last follow-up( t=74.941, P<0.01). Conclusions:Minimally invasive Oxford phase Ⅲ UKA for medial compartment knee osteoarthritis has a favorable prosthesis survival rate,low revision rate,and few complications at long-term follow-up.Patients have significant improvement in knee function with satisfactory clinical outcomes.
