Objective To summarize the experience in CAD / CAM custom-made hemipelvic prosthesis and its application in 8 patients. Methods The exact model of pelvis was generated with its CT data by Rapid Prototyping Technique (RPT). Simulated bone resection and prosthesis design were performed on the models. The prosthesis should be fixed simultaneously on the contralateral pubic ramus (or the remainder of pubis), the joint facet of sacrum (or the remainder of ilium) and on the remained ischium if part of it could be preserved. When prosthesis was put in place, the acetabular component should be symmetric with the contralateral acetabulum in terms of the height, lateral distance and abduction angle, after it's fixation on the remained pelvis with cancellous screws, bolts and hooks, conventional total hip implants with cemented acetabular and cementless femoral prothesis were implanted. 8 patients underwent this kind of procedure, of them 7 suffered from large pelvic tumor, including 2 chondrosarcoma, 3 giant cell tumors, 1 cartilaginous fibrodysplasia and 1 metastasis. One patient received this procedure for severe osteolysis after THA. Tumor artery embolization was done in 6 of them 24-48 h before operation. Results Blood transfusion was 4971 ml in average. The implantation of prosthesis was easily accessible. One suffered from remained sinus, and healed after myocutaneous flap transferring. All patients began non-weight bearing walk with double crutches 6 weeks after operation and gradually abandoned crutches in 3 months. One patient with chondrosarcoma died of lung metastasis 9 months after operation. No loosening was found during the 1 to 4 years (2.5 years in average) follow-up of the 7 cases. The position of bilateral hips was symmetric. They all recovered to self-care. Two of them returned to work 7 and 8 months after operation respectively. One local recurrence happened and was resected again. Conclusion The custom-made hemipelvic prosthesis generated with RPT and CAD/CAM can improve the prosthesis fixation, ensure the exact orientation of acetabular component and make the operation easy.

Objective To propose measures to reconstruct the massive bone defect in acetabulum in revision hip arthroplasty on the basis of the experience in the cases treated by the authors. Methods Thirty- two hips of 33 hip revision cases with massive bone defect being operated on by the first author were summarized and analyzed. The patients included 17 males and 15 females, with the age of 40 to 90 years. 28 cases (29 hips) underwent revision for the first time, 2 cases (2 hips) for the second time,1 case (1 hip) for the third and the other 1 case (1 hip)for the fourth time. The primary surgery were artificial femoral head replacement in 8 cases (8 hips) and total hip replacement in 24 cases (25 hips). Except of 2 saddle protheses replacement, bone grafts, mainly cancellous bone grafts, were used in 31 hips, of which 22 hips were non- structural bone grafts and 9 hips were allografts of femoral head or autograft of ilium. After grafting, ready- made acetabular prostheses were implanted in 9 hips, while special prostheses were used in 24 hips, chiefly computer- aided custom- made acetabular prostheses, including winged prostheses, 2- layer metal mesh, acetabular reinforcing rings (ARR), bi- spherical prostheses, crested prostheses and saddle type prostheses. Results In the course of 0.5 to 11 years' follow- up, re- displacement or relapse of bone absorption was not found in any of the cases. The Harris hip function score rose to 54- 89 from the pre- operative level of 17- 48. The computer- aided custom- made acetabular prostheses could better meet the requirements of different conditions of disease, thereby reducing the difficulties of surgery. Conclusion Special prostheses have the advantages of better compatibility with the individual requirements, prevention of displacement or collapse of the bone graft and higher primary stability. The proper application of bone graft and choice of suitable prosthesis to achieve the reconstruction of acetabular fossa and the integrity of acetabular circumference will markedly improve the success rate of revision surgery.

BACKGROUND:Peripheral facial nerve injury first involves the retrograde reactions of central nervous system axons, and nerve regeneration wil depend on the survival and functional status of neuronal cel bodies. OBJECTIVE:To explore the expression of neuronal cadherin and placental cadherin in facial nuclei after facial nerve injury. METHODS:New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into model group (n=48) and control group (n=8). In the model group, every eight rabbits were used to carry out the test respectively at 1, 4, 7, 14, 21 days after the model of facial nerve injury (right side) was established. SP and real-time quantitative PCR methods were taken to test the expression of neuronal cadherin and placental cadherin in the facial nerve nucleus at mRNA and RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:The control group had neuronal cadherin-and placental cadherin-positive neurons. In the model group, neuronal cadherin and placental cadherin positively expressed in the facial motorneurons (right side), and their expressions were peaked at 14 days. Compared with the control group, the mRNA expression of neuronal cadherin in the facial motorneurons was increased significantly at 4-28 days after injury;the mRNA expression of placental cadherin in the facial motorneurons was decreased significantly at 1 day after injury, and then increased significantly at 7-28 days. It is suggested that the expression of neuronal cadherin and placental cadherin is positive in the early stage of facial nerve injury, and the expression of placental cadherin is always present, while the expression of neuronal cadherin relatively lasts for a short time. After facial nerve injury, the expression of neuronal cadherin and placental cadherin in the facial nerve nucleus is both increased, which indicates that the facial nerve regeneration may be related to the high expression of adhesion molecules.

Objective To discuss a simple and effective method of medial epicanthoplasty with the subcilliary incision, which can decrease the visible scar. Methods From January of 2007 to De-cember of 2008, 38 patients with epicanthal fold underwent epicanthoplasty using the new method. During the operation a skin incision was subcilliarily made outward from the original medial epican-thus. After elevating the flap and excising the orbicularis oculi muscle beneath the epieanthal fold, the new medial epicanthus was sutured to the designed point. Then subciliary incision was trimmed and sutured. Results Most of the patients obtained satisfactory results. Only one patient complained a-bout visible scarring and none required revision surgery. Scarring was avoided on the noticeable medial canthal region because the only incisions needed were subciliary incisions. Conclusions This method is simple to design and easy to perform. The operative results are effective without visible scars on the medial canthal region.

Objective To determine the distribution of Helicobacter pylori (H.pylori) iceA, babA2 in patients in Shanghai and explore the association of H. pylori strain genotype with its clinical outcome after infection. Methods A total of 141 H. pylori strains was isolated from gastric biopsy samples of 43 patients with chronic gastritis, 47 patients with duodenal ulcer (DU), 30 patients with gastric ulcer(GU) and 21 patients with non cardia gastric carcinoma. The iceA, vacA, cagA, and babA2 genotypes were determined by polymerase chain reaction (PCR). Results iceA1, iceA2 and babA2 were detected in 74.5% (105/141) , 15.6% (22/141) and 63.8% (90/141) of the 141 H.pylori strains, respectively, while 2 of isolated H. pylori strain (1.4%) were positive for both iceA alleles and 16(11.3%) were negative for both iceA alleles. The prevalence of babA2 and the combined genotype of babA2 and cagA in H. pylori isolated from DU patients were significantly higher than that in GU patients (74.5% vs. 50.0% for babA2, P =0.028; 70.2% vs. 46.7% for babA2 and cagA, P =0.039). There was no significant difference in prevalence of babA2 among other disease groups. No association of different clinical diseases with iceA genotype was detected. Conclusions The most common genotype of H.pylori strains isolated from patients in Shanghai is iceA1 +/babA2 +. babA2 may play different role in the pathogenesis of duodenal ulcer and gastric ulcer. No association between iceA status and clinical outcome of H.pylori infection was confirmed in our study.
