OBJECTIVETo seek a new method for reconstructing bilateral intemrnal jugular vein invaded by metastasis lymph node in advanced oral cancer patients.
METHODSA combination of microvascular anastomosis and longitudinal constriction suture venoplasty was performed to reconstruct internal jugular vein. We resected the part of the bilateral internal jugular vein of advanced oral cancer patients invaded by metastasis lymph node and used the external carotid vein to reconstruct the internal jugular vein. A part of the vessel wall of the internal jugular vein could also be resected to reconstruct the vein. Longitudinal constriction suture venoplasty could slowly narrow the lumen diameter of the internal jugular vein. Thus, difference in anastomosis diameter should be avoided because it generates eddy currents and subsequently causes blood clots. A total of five advanced cases of oral squamous cell carcinoma were involved in this study. We performed bilateral radical neck dissection on all patients to reconstruct the internal jugular vein and observed their postoperative conditions.
RESULTSPostopera-tive follow-up of 5 months to 19 months was performed on all patients. Doppler or CT angiography and related tests showed no internal jugular vein thrombosis. No patient with facial edema, throat swelling, cerebral edema, and high intracranial pressure or other serious complications caused by blocked venous blood was observed. The one-year survival rate of five patients was 60% (3/5).
CONCLUSIONMicrovascular anastomosis combined with longitudinal constriction suture venoplasty is a new method for reconstructing internal jugular vein. This method was proved successful and clinically feasible.

OBJECTIVETo examine the benefits of anterolateral thigh myocutaneous flaps in reconstruction of oral and maxillofacial defects.
METHODSPatients were recruited from February 2002 to June 2013 in the Department of Oral and Maxillofacial Surgery of Central South University. All patients (1,185 patients, 1,212 transferred flaps) underwent reconstructive surgery employing anterolateral thigh myocutaneous flaps. Basic information for all patients including defect side, flap size and type, recipient vessel processing method, donor complications, and postoperative quality of life were recorded and statistically analyzed.
RESULTSAmong the 1 212 transferred flaps, 1 176 survived and 36 showed necrosis, for a survival rate of about 97.0%. No cases presented with local serious complications, and 90% of patients achieved good functional recovery and aesthetically acceptable results after reconstruction of oral and maxillofacial defects at various locations using anterolateral thigh myocutaneous flaps. The time for anastomosis of one vein was significantly less than that for two veins (P=-0.000 3), which indicated one vein anastomosis could significantly reduce the operating time. The incidence of venous crisis, the survival rate after treatment, and the rate of venous crisis resulting in flap necrosis were comparable between the groups (P>0.05).
CONCLUSIONAnterolateral thigh myocutaneous flaps can be easily obtained and provide a good amount of muscle for filling dead space and fascia lata. These flaps can meet the various requirements of oral and maxillofacial defects. Therefore, the anterolateral thigh myocutaneous free flaps are more suitable for oral and maxillofacial defects than other flaps.

Objective To explore the clinical effects of solitaire AB stent assisted with coil embolization therapy in the treatment of wide-necked intracranial aneurysms. Methods A total of 30 patients with wide-necked intracranial a-neurysms who were admitted in our hospital and given the treatment of stent combined with coil embolization technique from August 2013 to August 2014 were selected. The patients were given the treatment of anti-coagulation and anti-platelet during perioperative period. Cerebral angiography was re-examined 3 months after the surgery and embolization effect was evaluated. Results 30 patients (30 pieces) with wide-necked intracranial aneurysms were treated with soli-taire AB stent assisted with coil embolization therapy in this study, among whom 26 patients were fully and closely em-bolised, 3 patients were embolised over 90%, and 1 patient was embolised mostly (85%-90%). Follow-up was carried out for patients 2-12 months. Modified Rankin scores (mRS) was applied for evaluation. 25 patients were scored 0, 4 were scored 1 and 1 was scored 2. One of the patients died after rescue due to severe cerebral angiospasm induced by subarachnoid hemorrhage followed by diffuse brain swelling. No rupture of aneurysms was seen in other patients during the embolization surgery, and no surgery-associated complications such as stent displacement and bleeding. Satisfactory effect was achieved for patients with wide-necked intracranial aneurysms receiving stent assisted with embolization surgery. All patients were followed-up by cerebral angiography, and no relapse of arterial aneurysm was detected. Conclusion Solitaire AB stent assisted with coil embolization technique in the treatment of wide-necked intracranial a-neurysms is safe and effective.

Objective:To investigate the distribution of respiratory pathogens and risk factors of death in patients with pulmonary infection in neurosurgical intensive care unit (NICU).Methods:A total of 87 patients with pulmonary infection in the NICU of the First Affiliated Hospital of Hunan University of Traditional Chinese Medicine from January 2018 to December 2019 were collected, and the pathogens of their respiratory tract were analyzed to understand the types and distribution of bacteria in the lung infection. Univariate statistical analysis was used to analyze the relationship between the patient′s clinical outcome with age, diabetes, hypertension, renal insufficiency, hypoproteinemia, anemia, chronic respiratory disease, surgery, tracheotomy, and bacterial multi-resistance. Binary logistic regression analysis was used to analyze the influencing factors of death in NICU patients with pulmonary infection.Results:A total of 112 pathogenic bacteria were isolated in this research group, including 83 Gram-negative bacteria (74.11%), 22 Gram-positive bacteria (19.64%), and 7 Fungi (5.25%). Imipenem was highly sensitive to Gram-negative bacteria, vancomycin was highly sensitive to Gram-positive bacteria, and other drugs were highly resistant. 41 patients died (47.13%). Age≥60 ( OR=3.501, 95% CI: 1.152-10.638), renal insufficiency ( OR=3.872, 95% CI: 1.336-11.224), tracheotomy ( OR=0.317, 95% CI: 0.114-0.882), bacteria multi-drug resistance ( OR=3.480, 95% CI: 1.162-10.422) were independent risk factors for death in NICU patients with pulmonary infection. Conclusions:Patients with severe neurological diseases are in critical condition, and there are many patients with pulmonary infection, with poor prognosis and high mortality. Gram-negative bacteria are the most common respiratory pathogens. Carbapenems account for the highest proportion of antibiotics in clinic. Advanced age, renal insufficiency and bacterial multidrug resistance increase the mortality of patients, while early tracheotomy can reduce the mortality of patients.

Objective:To explore the clinical efficacy and safety analysis of a novel laser localization technology assisted percutaneous puncture of trigeminal nerve microsphere capsule compression surgery for the treatment of primary trigeminal neuralgia.Methods:A retrospective selection was conducted on 63 patients with primary trigeminal neuralgia who underwent percutaneous puncture of the trigeminal nerve microsphere capsule compression surgery at the First Hospital of Hunan University of Chinese Medicine from January 2020 to December 2021. According to different surgical methods, they were divided into a new laser localization assisted puncture group (observation group) of 32 cases and a traditional barehanded localization puncture group (control group) of 31 cases. An analysis was conducted on the surgical time, puncture time, puncture frequency, intraoperative exposure to radiation, number of cases of poor balloon formation, and clinical efficacy within 6 months after surgery for two groups of patients. The prognosis of the patients was followed up at 6 months after surgery.Results:The surgical time, puncture time, puncture frequency, and intraoperative exposure of the observation group were all less than those of the control group, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.05). There was no statistically significant difference ( P>0.05) in the number of cases of poor balloon angioplasty between the observation group and the control group, as well as the pain score grading of the Barlow Neurological Institute (BNI) on the first day after surgery. Within 6 months after surgery, there was no statistically significant difference in the incidence of facial numbness, diplopia, masseter weakness, perilabial herpes, and recurrent pain between the two groups of patients (all P>0.05). Conclusions:Laser positioning technology can assist in precise puncture of the foramen ovale and accurate placement of balloons based on surgical experience, which helps to improve surgical safety, reduce postoperative complications and intraoperative radiation dose, and achieve satisfactory short-term follow-up results.
