Objective To evaluate the results of computer-aid customized acetabular cages for patients with severe defects.Methods Twenty-three patients (8 males and 15 females) with a massive acetabular defects were involved in the present study from January 2005 to September 2014.The average age was 64.2 years (range,46-79 years).According to the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons (AAOS) classification,20 had AAOS type Ⅲ defects and three had AAOS type Ⅳ defects.The customized cages were individualized to each patient's bone defects based on the rapid prototype three-dimensional printed models.The mean follow-up duration was 66.3 months (range,24-120 months).The clinical and radiographic outcomes of all patients were assessed at 6 and 12 weeks after surgery and at once yearly thereafter.Harris hip scores were assessed before surgery and at each follow-up.Postoperative radiographs were evaluated for cage position,migration,and graft incorporation.Complications and reoperations were assessed by chart review.Results The mean Harris hip score improved from 36.2±7.9 (range,20-49) to 81.8± 8.4 (range,60-96),and there is a significant difference between pre-and post-operation (t=23.23,P<0.001).Individualized custom cages resulted in generally reliable restoration of the hip center.The difference of horizontal distance (between the center of each hip and pubic symphysis) between bilateral sides was-3.0±6.4 mm (range,-19-8 mm).The difference of vertical distance (between the center of each hip and the line connecting the inferior border of the bilateral tear drop) between bilateral sides was 0.4±2.8 mm (range,-4.5-5 mm).No re-revisions had been conducted.None of the cups showed radiographic migration,while one cage was suspected to be loose based on a circumferential 2-mm radiolucent line.Cancellous allografts appeared to be incorporated in 22 of 23 patients.One deep infection and one superficial infection were observed and were treated with irrigation,debridement,and vacuum sealing drainage.One dislocation and one suspected injury of the superior gluteal nerve also were observed and were treated conservatively.Conclusion Individualized customized cages appears to provide stable fixation and improve hip scores at short or mid-term follow-up.

Objective: To summarize the therapeutic effect of free deep inferior epigastric perforator (DIEP) flap and anterolateral thigh perforator (ALTP) flap in repairing skin and soft tissue defects in chest wall tumor resection.Methods: One old male patient with malignant fibrous histiocytoma of chest wall in China-Japan Union Hospital received operation,and the tumor was extendedly resected.The remaining chest wall defects were 10 cm×10 cm and 18 cm×14 cm,respectively.Free DIEP and ALTP flaps were used to repair the defects,and vascular pedicle was anastomosed with internal mammary artery and thoracic lateral artery,respectively.Results:After operation,the donor area was sutured directly,and two flaps survived with good appearance.The skin of ALTP flap was flatter than that of DIEP flap,and the texture and color of skin were close to those around chest wall.Conclusion:Free DIEP and ALTP flaps are ideal choice for repairing skin and soft tissue defects after resection in the male patient with chest wall tumor.
3. Bilateral thoracoscopic surgery for invasive thymoma complicated with myasthenia gravis: A case report and literature review
Journal of Jilin University(Medicine Edition) 2018;44(1):179-181
Objective: To observe the effect of bilateral thoracoscopic surgery for invasive thymoma complicated with myasthenia gravis, and to explore feasibility of surgical procedure. Methods: Bilateral thoracoscopic extended thymectomy was performed in one patient with invasive thymoma complicated with myasthenia gravis, with complete resection of thymus and anterior mediastinal adipose tissue through bilateral approach, and the curative effect was observed. Results: Bilateral thoracoscopic thymectomy for invasive thymoma had radical effects with rapid recovery after surgery, avoiding large surgical trauma and more complications in open surgery and flawed in removing contralateral fat and ectopic thymus with unilateral thoracoscope. Conclusion: Bilateral thoracoscopic extended thymectomy has radical effects for invasive thymoma complicated with myasthenia gravis, confirming its feasible surgical procedure.

ObjectiveTo investigate the immunity and seroprevalence of hepatitis A and to identify the risk factors of hepatitis A infection in 0-18 year-old children and adolescents in Shanghai.MethodsSubjects were enrolled by stratifying and clustering random sampling method.Questionnaire interview was applied to investigate the socio-demographic and behavioral factors related to hepatitis A virus (HAV),and information on HAV immunization was abstracted from the immunization registration book of each subject.The enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA) was used to qualitatively detect HAV IgM and quantitatively measure total HAV antibody in all subjects.Risk factors associated with HAV among the subjects without HAV vaccination were analyzed.ResultsA total of 2431 subjects were enrolled in the present study with negative HAV IgM antibody and total HAV antibody in 1483 subjects were sero-positive with positivity rate of 61%.Total HAV antibody positivity rates were declined with age increasing and were significantly higher in subjects with HAV vaccination than those without HAV vaccination records.Salad food,eating together without food separation in school and endoscopy inspection were risk factors for HAV infection.ConclusionsHAV vaccination strategies remarkably improve the total HAV antibody seropositive rate in children and adolescents in Shanghai.The risk of HAV infection exists if HAV vaccination is not administrated comprehensively.Therefore,strengthening HAV vaccination and health education are important for children and adolescents to prevent and control of hepatitis A in Shanghai.
