Tianjin Medical Journal 2017;45(8):822-825
Objective To investigate the technique and outcome of primary management of skull base fracture and cerebrospinal fluid (CSF) leakage by emergency surgery in patients with severe craniocerebral trauma. Methods A total of 16 patients with severe brain injury, skull base fracture and CSF leakage hospitalized in Department of Neurosurgery, Tianjin Medical University General Hospital from January 2014 to December 2015 were retrospectively analyzed. All of patients underwent emergency surgery to remove the hematoma and repair the skull base fracture, including anterior skull base repair in 12 patients and middle temporal skull base repair in 4 patients. During the surgery, the inner wall of the frontal sinus was managed by electrocautery, then removal of frontal sinus mucosa, hydrogen peroxide and iodophor rinse were used. The repairing and forming of the orbital roof were performed for the severe deformation cases. All bone fractures and fissures were filled with muscle blocks and biological glue and covered with a pedicled muscle flap. In addition, after close suturing of epidural, the intact periosteum under the skin flap was used to tile the skull base. No external material was used in the whole process. Results Among the 16 patients, 14 (87.5%) patients were successfully repaired by emergency surgery, and 2 cases (12.5%) failed. One of the patients who failed to repair the fracture was with the middle skull base fracture, severe fracture of skull base and mastoid, and extensive exposure of mastoid air chamber with large bone mass. This patient failed secondary surgical repair and died with severe infection. Another one case who failed primary surgery was with severe bone fractures in the anterior, middle and posterior skull base, which could not be completely repaired. This patient was also combined with infection and dead ultimately. Conclusion Primary repair in patient with severe head injury combined with skull base fracture, which needs surgical intervention can reduce further injury and save the patient's life. The key to the operation is to determine the operative principle and to repair the skull base tightly.

Objective To provide an anatomic data of the lumbar isthmus, and to increase the fusion rate of the graft bone for spondylolisthesis treated with posterolateral spinal fusion and Steffee plate fixation. Methods The area and volume of the bone graft bed for posterolateral spinal fusion in the lumbar isthmus were studied on 30 dried specimens of adult lumbar spines from L 1 to L 5(a total of 150 lumbar vertebrae) with a vernier calipers, a goniometer and a graduate. Results The length of the superior edge of the isthmus gradually increased from L 1[(7.34? 1.15) mm] to L 5[(10.31? 1.89) mm], and that of its inferior edge progressively decreased from L 1[(6.63? 1.24) mm] to L 5 [( 4.73? 1.21) mm]. The superior edge of the isthmus was the thinnest at L 1[(1.85? 0.64)mm], and the thickness increased inferiorly from L 1[(6.57? 1.24) mm] to L 5[(7.57? 1.16) mm]. The medial and caudal inclination of the isthmus with respect to the pedicle gradually increased from L 1 (113.9?? 13.3? ) to L 5(119.1?? 13.5? ) medial inclination and from (101.2?? 9.5? ) at L 1 to (117.6?? 13.4? ) at L 5 caudal inclination, respectively. The length of the superior edge of the isthmus and the transverse diameter of the pedicle were positively correlated to the vertebral levels. The length of the inferior edge of the isthmus were negatively correlated to the vertebral levels. The dimensions of the graft bed area were postively correlated to dimensions of the graft bone volume. Conclusion The application of firm spinal internal fixation system with adequate graft bed area and adequate graft volume, the maintenance of close contact between the graft bed and the graft bone, and adequate period of postoperative stable contact of the graft in bed were the keys to enable reduction of the spondylolisthesis and to increase the fusion rate of posterolateral bone graft.

Objective To investigate the effects of topiramate(TPM) on the electroencephalogram(EEG) epileptiform wave and background activity in patients with refractory partial epilepsy. Methods Fifty-four patients with partial epilepsy resistant to conventional AED treatment were enrolled in the study. All patiants underwent rountine EEG detection during baseline days and the drug titration and maintenance phases after TPM treatment. Results After receiveing TPM, 10 patients( 19%) became seizure free and the overall seizure frequency was reduced by ≥50% in 35 patients(65%). Mild or moderate side effects were observed in 26 patients (48%).Quantitative analysis of the interictal EEG paroxysms revealed that the interictal epileptiform discharges(IED) vanished or decreased obviously in those patients who displayed a significant reduction (≥50%) in seizure occurrence, but the IED increased significantly in 9 3% of the patients. EEG background activity abnormalities(38 9%) induced by TPM consisted of increased delta and theta activities and decreased alpha activity. Conclusion The results indicated TPM being an effective drug used as adjuvant therapy in refractory partial seizure. TPM dose should increase gradually under EEG monitoring to detect side effects related to the central nervous system early.The EEG changes associated with the side effects mainly were increased activity in the slower frequency rhythm.
