Objective:To evaluate and analyze the ultrasonic findings of idiopathic clubfoot and positional clubfoot deformities.Methods:Forty-nine newborn babies with congenital clubfoot were examined in the Department of Ultrasound of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from December 2020 to January 2022, Including 21 newborn babies(32 feet) with idiopathic clubfoot, and 28 babies(53 feet) with positional clubfoot. Twenty-two normal infants in the same period and the normal feet of the single clubfoot were selected as control group. The distance between medial malleolus and scaphoids of all feet were measured by ultrasound. The distance from the tangent line of the lateral edge of calcaneus to the midpoint of the lateral edge of the chondroid bone, medial soft tissue thickness and tibial calcaneal angle were measured by ultrasound. The data of idiopathic clubfoot group, positional clubfoot group and control group were statistically analyzed.Results:A total of 71 newborn babies with 142 feet were evaluated.The idiopathic clubfoot group had born and joint changes in the medial, lateral and posterior side, and the differences were statistically significant compared with the control group (all P<0.05). Compared with the control group, there were statistically significant differences in the medial and lateral side of the positional group(all P<0.05). But no significant changes in the posterior side( P>0.05). There were significant differences between medial and posterior side of idiopathic and positional clubfoot group (all P<0.05), but no significant differences in lateral side ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Ultrasonography can clearly display the tarsus bones in clubfoot, and observe the deformity changes of the idiopathic clubfoot and positional clubfoot.

Objective:To investigate the application value of three dimensional (3D) imaging fusion navigation system (hereinafter referred as navigation system) in laparoscopic pan-creatic surgery.Methods:The retrospective and descriptive study was conducted. The clinical data of two volunteers, including volunteer 1 undergoing laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy for cholangiocarcinoma and volunteer 2 undergoing laparoscopic pancreaticotomy + splenectomy for pancreatic cancer, who were admitted to the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University from December 2020 to May 2021 were collected. The 2 volunteers were females, aged 68 years and 40 years, respectively. The self-developed navigation system was applied in laparoscopic simulator model test, including in rigid-body model and prosthesis model, and clinical test. Observation indicators: (1) results of model test; (2) results of clinical test. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD. Results:(1) Results of model test. The rigid-body model or prosthesis model with occlusion can be seen in the laparoscopic visual field of the initial laparoscopic simulator. The rigid-body model or prosthesis model with occlusion and rigid-body model or prosthesis model without occlusion can be seen in the 3D visual reconstruction image of enhanced computer tomography (CT) examination. The rigid-body model or prosthesis model with occlusion can be seen in the laparoscopic visual field of the initial laparoscopic simulator after the 3D visual reconstruction image was superimposed and fused with the real-time laparoscopic image. Both of the rigid-body model and prosthesis model were in high consistency, with the distance error of marker points were (0.26±0.11)mm and (0.29±0.18)mm, respectively. (2) Results of clinical test. The abdominal organs and blood vessels with occlusion of the 2 volunteers can be seen in the initial laparoscopic visual field. The location of tumor, important organs and blood vessels can be seen in the navigation system using the 3D visual reconstruction image of enhanced CT examination. The location of tumor, important organs and important blood vessels can be seen in the laparoscopic visual field after the 3D visual reconstruction image was superimposed and fused with the real-time laparoscopic image. The distance error of marker points of the volunteer 1 was (1.36±0.57)mm and the distance error of marker points of the volunteer 2 was (1.24±0.33)mm.Conclusions:The self-developed navigation system can integrate the preoperative 3D visual reconstruction image of enhanced CT examination and the intraoperative real-time laparoscopic image with a good effect. The relationship between deep tissue and blood vessels which is not clarified in conventional laparoscopy can be shown in the navigation system assisted laparoscopic pancreatic surgery.

Objective:To compare and analyze the perioperative outcomes of jaundiced patients undergoing laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy (LPD) using preoperative percutaneous transhepatic cholangial drainage (PTCD) versus endoscopic nasobiliary drainage (ENBD).Methods:The perioperative data of 173 patients who underwent LPD at the Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 2016 to December 2020 and were treated preoperatively with either PTCD versus ENBD to alleviate jaundiced were retrospectively analyzed. There were 100 males and 73 females, with age of (60.4±10.8) years old. These patients were divided into the PTCD group ( n=126) and the ENBD group ( n=47). Clinical data including operation time, blood loss, transfusion volume, R 0 resection, and postoperative complications were compared. Results:There was no convension to open surgery. There were no significant differences in operation time, blood loss, transfusion volume, R 0 resection rate, pathological results and hospital stay between the two groups ( P>0.05). For the PTCD group, the pancreatic fistula rate was 10.3% (13/126) and the post-operative hemorrhage rate was 8.7% (11/126). They were both significantly lower than those of the ENBD group [25.5% (12/47) and 25.5% (12/47) respectively, P<0.05]. There were also significant differences in the postoperative complications according to the Clavien-Dindo classification system between the two groups ( P=0.008). Conclusion:Compared with ENBD, PTCD had the advantages of lower post-operative pancreatic fistula and post-operative hemorrhage rates, resulting in a better postoperative recovery.

Objective:To investigate the inhibitory effect and mechanisms of action of mucopolysaccharide polysulfate cream on hypertrophic scar formation.Methods:Circular full-thickness wounds with a diameter of 6 mm were made in both ears of 16 New Zealand white rabbits to establish a rabbit ear model of hypertrophic scar. There were 3 hypertrophic scars in each rabbit ear. About 14 days after the operation, scars on the left ear were topically treated with mucopolysaccharide polysulfate cream, and served as the experimental group; scars on the right ear were topically treated with the cream vehicle, and served as vehicle control group. The dosage of topical agents for one rabbit ear was approximately 0.4 g, which were given twice a day for 6 consecutive weeks. Scar tissues were collected on days 0, 14 and 42, that is, 14, 28 and 56 after operation respectively, and subjected to hematoxylin and eosin (HE) staining, Masson staining and immunohistochemical study, so as to evaluate histopathological scores, measure the scar thickness and collagen fiber density, and determine the expression of type Ⅰ and Ⅲ collagen and the ratio of type Ⅰ/Ⅲ collagen. The t test and one-way analysis of variance were used to compare the indices between groups. Results:Compared with pretreatment histopathological manifestations, HE staining showed extensive extracellular matrix deposition, inflammatory cell infiltration and local hyperemia in the control group after 42-day treatment, but no obvious changes in the experimental group. The pathological scores of scar tissues on the rabbit ears significantly increased over time in the control group (days 0, 14 and 42: 4.16 ± 1.61, 6.50 ± 1.46, 6.53 ± 1.34, respectively; F = 13.69, P = 0.001) , while there was no significant change in the experimental group (days 0, 14 and 42: 4.65 ± 1.52, 5.13 ± 1.83, 5.38 ± 1.60, respectively; F = 0.78, P > 0.05) . Masson staining showed extremely high content of dark blue-dyed collagen fibers in the control group on day 42, but there was a decrease in the content of collagen fibers in the experimental group; with the increase in treatment duration, the thickness of scar tissues significantly increased in the control group compared with that before treatment ( F = 5.64, P = 0.007) , while there was no significant change in the experimental group ( F = 1.48, P > 0.05) . Immunohistochemical study revealed no significant change in the expression of type Ⅲ collagen in either the experimental group or the control group at any of the above posttreatment time points compared with that on day 0 ( F = 0.22, 0.92, respectively, both P > 0.05) , but the expression of type Ⅰ collagen and the ratio of type Ⅰ/Ⅲ collagen significantly increased in the control group ( F = 7.47, P < 0.001; F = 4.70, P = 0.005, respectively) . On day 42, the expression of type Ⅰ collagen and the ratio of type Ⅰ/Ⅲ collagen significantly decreased in the experimental group compared with the control group ( t = 3.04, P = 0.007; t = 2.35, P = 0.030, respectively) . Conclusion:Topical mucopolysaccharide polysulfate cream is effective in preventing and inhibiting scar hypertrophy by reducing the scar thickness and inhibiting the collagen fiber hyperplasia and type I collagen expression.

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy and safety of single-layer with full thickness of duct-to-mucosa pancreaticojejunostomy in laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy.Methods:The clinical data of 45 patients who underwent laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy with the procedures of single-layer with full thickness in Second Hospital of Hebei Medical University from Jan 2020 to Jan 2022 were retrospectively collected and compared with 45 matched patients with traditional two-layer pancreaticojejunostomy.Results:The laparoscopic pancreaticoduodenectomy procedures were successfully performed in all the 90 cases. The mean operation time (285.6±92.4 minutes) and the media pancreaticojejunostomy time 20(15, 35) minutes) of the single-layer with full thickness pancreaticojejunostomy group were shorter than those of the two-layer pancreaticojejunostomy group [the mean operation time: 317.0±85.5 minutes, the media pancreaticojejunostomy time: 46(30, 58) minutes] with significantly statistical differences (all P value<0.05). There were no significantly statistical differences on intraoperative blood loss, the postoperative complications or hospital stay between the two groups. Conclusions:Compared with traditional pancreaticojejunostomy, the single-layer with full thickness of duct-to-mucosa pancreaticojejunostomy is simple and safe, which has the advantage of easy manipulation and less time-consuming and can be recommended for laparoscopic procedures.
