Objective To discuss anatomical characteristics and clinical results of the lateral superior genicular artery perforator iliotibial band flap. Methods From September 1999 to July 2009, the origin,course, branches and distribution of the lateral superior genicular artery and blood supply of iliotibial band were observed on 40 sides adult lower limbs perfused with red latax. Five perforator iliotibial band and 4 perforator iliotibial band flaps of 9 cases were treated with anastomosis of lateral superior genicular artery perforating rami. Results The lateral superior genicular artery of 35 cases (80%) originates from the popliteal artery. Its originated external diameter was (1.8 ± 0.4) mm. It divides into ascending branch and descending branch, and they gives off septofascio-cutaneous perforator, or anatomoses the lateral uppermost genicular artery in the vastus lateralis muscle, and then formes the musculocutaneous perforator of iliotibial band. The originated external diameter of the larger perforator of iliotibial bands was ( 1.0 ± 0.2) mm and they provides for the skin and iliotibial band of lateral superior genicular area. Nine cases, including 5 cases of simple Achilles tendon defects, two cases of achilles tendon defects with skin defects, and 2 cases of lower extremity and foot soft tissue defects were treated with transplantation of the vascularized iliotibial band (flap) with perforator vascular anastomoses. All cases were followed up 6 - 92 months. The results showed significant improvement in "heel test" and Thompson sign in the rerupture of the Achilles tendon occurred. Four perforator iliotibial band flaps survived well. Conclusion The lateral superior genicular artery perforator iliotibial band flap is a practical, simple and new donor in the reconstruction of soft tissue and composite defects.

OBJECTIVE:To determine the therapeutic effect of transpedicular instrumentation without fusion on patients with thoracolumbar burst fractures.METHODS:A total of 63 patients with thoracolumbar burst fractures (the inclusion criteria was neurologically intact spine with a kyphotic angle >20° and/or decreased anterior vertebral body height > 50%) who were treated with transpedicular instrumentation without fusion were studied,including 40 cases treated by AF internal fixation,16 cases by Tennor screw-rod fixation system and 7 cases by Diapason screw-rod fixation.All patients underwent a radiological and clinical assessment (including the loss of kyphotic angle,decreased anterior vertebral body height,the midsagital diameter of the canal and the Low Back Outcome Score) preoperatively,postoperatively and after 24 months.The deformity of angulation was measured by Cobb angle.RESULTS:All pstients were followed for a 24 months,with average stay of 13.4 days.There were averaged 3.8 days from admitted to operation,and the internal fixation was removed within 8-12 months in 51 cases,followed a 9.4-day hospital stay.According to low back outcome score,46 patients achieved excellent,9 good,5 fair and 3 poor,with excellent and good rates of 88%.The Cobb's angle was 20.1° preoperatively,6.2° postoperatively,and 11.9° after 24 months.The average lose of anterior vertebral body height was changed from 49.1% preoperatively to 17.4% postoperatively,which was 20.4% after 24 months.The midsagittal diameters was 49.8% (n=63) preoperatively,78.1% (n=28) postoperatively,and 91.7% (n=25) after 24 months.The implant failure occurred in 5 patients.The radiographic parameters had no associativity to the outcome of LBOS.CONCLUSION:Transpedicular instrumentation without fusion is conductive to treating burst fractures of the thoracolumbar spine without nerve injury.The routine posterior or posterolateral fusion is unnecessary in the operative management of these fractures.

Objective To evaluate the effect of comprehensive schistosomiasis control measures based on infection source control in plateau mountain areas of Yunnan Province. Methods From 2006 to 2004,four administrative villages were selected as test areas from plateau canyon and plateau basin endemic areas in Jindun Town,Heqing County,two villages each type,and the comprehensive control measures were implemented,including the examination and treatment of schistosomiasis,Oncomela?nia hupensis snail survey and control,health education,improving drinking water and lavatories,banning grazing,constructing sanitary pen of livestock,replacing cattle with machine,etc. The schistosome infection state and snail status in 2006 were treat?ed as the baseline information,and the effect of the comprehensive measures were evaluated. Results The infection rate of hu?man in plateau canyon areas decreased from 4.94%in 2006 to 0.06%in 2014,and that of livestock decreased from 1.11%to 0. In plateau basin areas,there was only 1 case of schistosomiasis found in Xiaolian Village in 2007,and no any other cases found in the other years,the infection rates of livestock dropped from 7.38%to 0. Compared with 2006,the snail areas in the two type areas decreased by 74.89%and 75.30%,respectively,meanwhile,the percentage of snail area,the occurrence rate of frames with snails,as well as the average density of living snails also decreased,and no infected snails were found since 2008. Xidian and Xinzhuang villages in plateau canyon area reached the criteria of schistosomiasis transmission controlled in 2009,and Xiao?lian and Kangfu villages in plateau basin reached the criteria of transmission interrupted in 2014. Conclusions The comprehen?sive schistosomiasis control measures based on infection source control can effectively control the endemic situation of schistoso? miasis in plateau areas of Yunnan Province. In the future,we should pay an equal attention to the infection sources control and snail control to consolidate and amplify the achievement of schistosomiasis control.

Objective To summarize the MRI manifestations of immunosuppressive drugs associated encephalopathy after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation (allo-HSCT) in children with aplastic anemia. Methods Fifteen patients with immunosuppressive drugs associated encephalopathy after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation for aplastic anemia during January 2014 to October 2016 were analyzed retrospectively. There were 7 males and 8 females, aged from 3 to15 years old, with the median age of 7 years old. Ten cases presented dizziness and headache while other 4 cases presented blurred vision, blind and gaze. Only one case suffered from seizure and loss of consciousness. MRI patterns including distribution, morphology and signal intensity were analyzed after treatment. Follow up MRI were performed after reducing drug dose and symptom remission. The duration of immunosuppressive drugs associated encephalopathy of the 15 cases were 1-14 months, with 6 months in 9 cases. Results Focal lesions were found in 11 cases, in which the deep nuclei were involved in one case and the white matter was involved in 10. Four patients showed both cerebral cortex and white matter lesions, including cerebellum and brainstem invasion in one patient. No corpus callosum lesions were found. Various degree of brain atrophy was found in all patients. Cortical lesions showed swelling and involved subcortical white matter presented as arc shape or strip-like lesions. Patchy patterns were found in deep white matter. Thin layer shaped lesions were found in the periventricular white matter. Small flake-like lesions were found in the brain stem and the cerebellum. The lesions showed hypointensity on T1WI, equal or high signal on T2WI. T2WI FLAIR showed equal or high signal;DWI in the cortex and subcortical white matter lesions showed iso-or high signal, while other lesions were isointense. Eight cases acquired clinical relief in short term without obvious improvement on MRI image. Both clinical symptoms and imaging findings improved in 6 cases. One case showed clinical relief but progression on MRI. Conclusions MRI is an effective way to find immunosuppressive drugs-related encephalopathy in children with aplastic anemia after allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplantation. It can help the diagnosis and provide the information for clinical treatment.

Objective To understand the status of water contact and labor practice of residents in plateau mountain schisto?somiasis endemic areas in Yunnan Province so as to provide the evidence for formulating the strategy of prevention and control of schistosomiasis in the next step of work. Methods A total of 412 residents aged 6-65 years old in 2 villages were randomly sampled and investigated with questionnaires for their water contacts and labor practices in plateau valley schistosomiasis endem?ic areas. Then the schistosome infection status of the residents was surveyed with the indirect hemagglutination assay IHA . Re?sults Among the 412 residents investigated the rate of water contact was 88.35% and the main causes of water contact were watering and swimming and playing. The percentages of residents who had schistosomiasis history were 1.16% 0.00%30.80% 3.85% and 0 in them who had swimming and playing water?contacts bathing watering washing hands and others respectively χ2=38.96 P<0.01 . The positives of IHA in the above?mentioned residents were 18.60% 0.00% 37.60%23.08% and 0 respectively χ2=12.61 P<0.05 . Conclusions The productive infested water contact is the main way of schistosome infection. Therefore the changes of labor practices and water contact of the residents are very important for the ef?fective prevention and control of schistosomiasis transmission.

OBJECTIVE To provide prenatal diagnosis for families affected with tuberous sclerosis complex and explore the correlation between phenotype and genotype. METHODS For probands from 10 families, all exons and splicing regions of the TSC1 and TSC2 genes were analyzed with high throughput DNA sequencing. Suspected mutations were verified by Sanger sequencing. RESULTS All probands were found to have mutations, which included 1 case with TSC1 mutation and 9 cases with TSC2 mutations (missense mutations in 6, nonsense mutations in 2, and frameshifting mutation in 1 case). Prenatal diagnosis was provided for 9 cases, and 1 fetus was found to carry a mutation. Genetic analysis has identified a novel pathogenic mutation (TSC2 c.2415-2416 ins GT). CONCLUSION Identification of pathological mutations for tuberous sclerosis complex can facilitate genetic counseling and prenatal diagnosis for the affected families.
