BACKGROUND:Previous clinical fol ow-up study showed that disc degeneration of adjacent segment after anterior cervical discectomy and fusion was faster than that of artificial cervical disc replacement. Compared with the anterior cervical discectomy and fusion, artificial cervical disc replacement can maintain a good range of motion of replacement segment. Further investigation should be taken to compare the difference between stress and fusion after replacement. OBJECTIVE:To compare the adjacent level discs loads between artificial cervical disc replacement and anterior cervical discectomy and fusion. METHODS:A healthy 30-year-old male volunteer was scanned with CT at the artificial cervical intervertebral disc and anterior cervical plate. Three-dimensional images were reconstructed with Mimics 10.01 and Geomagic Studio.v11 software. Above three-dimensional data were input into the Abaqus6.9 finite element analysis software for meshing, assignment, and stress analysis. Finite element method was used to simulate the stress changes of the adjacent segments after artificial cervical disc replacement and anterior cervical discectomy and fusion. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Under the same preload, during anteflexion, posterior extension, and lateroflexion, the disc stress at adjacent segment was significantly larger after anterior cervical discectomy and fusion than normal disc. Compared with normal persons, no significant difference was detected in stress of adjacent segment at anteflexion, posterior extension, and lateroflexion after artificial cervical disc replacement. (2) Compared with artificial cervical disc replacement group, the stress of adjacent segment increased 10.3%-51.6%in the anterior cervical discectomy and fusion group. (3) Finite element analysis showed that the stress was larger in the anterior cervical discectomy and fusion group than in the artificial cervical disc replacement group. With prolonged fol ow-up, compared with the conventional anterior decompression and fusion, artificial cervical disc replacement can better play its protective effect on the adjacent intervertebral disc.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the disinfection efficacy of dental high-speed hand-pieces contaminated by HBV with the method of pressure steam sterilizer.METHODS Taking 50 oral clinical patients randomly,and three group-samples which included saliva,hand-pieces contaminated by clinical operation and disinfected by pressure steam sterilizing were collected,then the samples were detected HBsAg and HBV DNA,respectively.RESULTS There were 95% of the saliva samples being HBsAg positive,the positive rate of the high-speed hand-pieces contaminated by clinical operation was lower than the saliva samples,and the positive rate of the hand-piece disinfected by pressure steam sterilizing was the lowest.HBV DNA was undetectable in the sample before or after disinfected hand-pieces used in patients′ saliva which HBsAg s/co value higher than 5.0.CONCLUSIONS Pressure steam sterilizing is effective to reduce the contaminated HBV on hand-pieces,but the biology test should be taken to demonstrate whether the complete sterilizing is achieved.

Objective To summarize the first experience with ultrasound-guided percutaneous ab lation treatment (PAT) for recurrent hepatoblastoma (HB) after liver resection in children.Methods From August 2013 to April 2015,PAT was used to treat 6 children with a total of 9 recurrent HB,including 5 patients with 8 tumors in the liver and 1 patient with 1 tumor in the lung.The mean size of ablated tumors was (1.5 ± 0.8) cm,and the tumor size range was 0.7 cm to 3.1 cm.Results Four patients were performed percutaneous radiofrequency ablation (RFA) for recurrent HB;and 2 patients were performed percutaneous ethanol injection (PEI).Ablation success was achieved in all patients (6/6,100％).The complete ablation rate after the first ablation session was 88.9％ (8/9) on a tumor-by-tumor basis.Only 1 patient developed a fever with temperature ＞ 39 ℃;it was resolved by conservative therapy.During the follow-up period of 5-30 months,3 patients died to tumor progression.The 1-and 2-year overall survival rates after ablation were 83.3％ and 41.7％,respectively.Conclusions PAT is a safe and promising therapy for children with recurrent HB after liver resection,and further investigation in large-scale randomized clinical trials is required to determine its role in the treatment of this disease.

Objective To retrospectively compare the safety and local efficacy of multiple-electrode switching based radiofrequency ablation (RFA) and the conventional RFA in treating single early-stage hepatocellular carcinoma (HCC).Methods A total of 82 patients with single early-stage HCC received either RFA with a multiple-electrode switching system (n =43) or conventional RFA (n =39) as the first-line treatment.The rate of initial local complete response,major complications and local tumor progression (LTP) were compared between two groups.Results The total ablation time was significantly shorter in the switching-RFA group [(16.7 ± 3.4) mins] than in the conventional RFA group [(29.8 ± 10.4) mins] (P ＜ 0.05).The rate of initial local complete response was 100％ (43/43) in the switching-RFA group and 94.9％ (37/39) in the conventional RFA group (P ＞0.05).After a mean follow-up period of (26.4 ± 21.8)months (ranging 3.0-91.6 months),the rates of LTP in the switching-RFA group and conventional RFA group were 16.3％ (7/43) and 17.9％ (7/39),respectively.The LTP rates in two groups were 16.1％ versus 11.2％ atyear1,and20.5％ versus 20.6％ at year2 (P=0.666).Conclusions The multiple-electrode switching based RFA is safe and effective with shorter ablation time in treating single early-stage hepatocellular carcinoma.

Objective To evaluate the safety and effective of ultrasound-guide percutaneous radio frequency ablation (RFA).Methods Retrospectively analyze the incident,management and influence factors of complication of ultrasound-guide percutaneous RFA.Results From 2001 to 2011,536 patients with 762 lesions underwent RFA were enrolled in this study.Incident of RFA complication was 2.03％ (11/536),including 5 (0.92％) major complication.The complication covered fever (1 case),massive hydrothorax (2 cases),hydrothorax accompany with ascites (1 case),massive ascites (1 case),liver abscess (1 case),liver capsule hemorrhage (1 case) and hemothrorax (1 case).No RFA relate mortality was observed.According to logistics regression analysis,the liver function Child-Pugh grading was associated with the RFA complication (P =0.005).Conclusions Ultrasound-guide percutaneous RFA is a safe and effective local treatment approach for hepatocellular carcinoma.It's necessary to comprehensively think over the basic condition of patients and the characters of tumor such as tumor location,size and abutting organs.Nevertheless,an appropriate treatment plan and closely monitor during and after RFA are crucial.

Objective To explore the surgical methods and clinical application effects of repairing hand soft tissue defect with free vascularized flaps based on the distal perforator of ulnar artery.Methods From March, 2001 to December, 2012 in our hospital, 90 patients with hand soft tissue defects were repaired by free vascularized flaps based on the distal perforator of ulnar artery, including 74 patients cases were repaired by Phase Ⅰ emergency surgery, 16 patients cases with scar contracture were repaired by Phase Ⅱ surgery.There were 34 cases were rebuild the sensory by repaired the continuity between the dorsal branch of the ulnar nerve and dorsal digital nerve or palmar digital nerve.The free vascularized flaps that used the emerging point of perforator of the ulnar artery as center of the flap was designed, which based on the distal perforator to repairing the hand soft tissue defect.Results All 89 patients postoperative flaps were survived.Necrosis was seen in 1 flap which was repaired by skin grafting.Follow-up ranged from 3 to 36 months with an average of 12 months.The appearance of flap was not clumsy, the quality was good.The sensation was S3-S3+ in 34 cases after nerve reconstruction surgery.The active and passive activity of 16 cases with scar contracture were improved significantly.The incision in 72 cases for direct suture were healed without scar contracture, 18 cases of skin grafts were all survived without contracture.Conclusion The free vascularized flaps based on the distal perforator of ulnar artery has constant perforating point, which can carry sensory nerves and leads to little donor site damage without major vascular injury.The flap serves as a simple approach to repair hand defects, and get satisfied skin flap appearance and texture, the fingers feel and function recovered well.
