?AIM: To observed the clinical effect of twice fluid-gas exchange in vitrectomy for retinal detachment at the equator.?METHODS: The retrospective analysis of the 74 cases (74 eyes) with retinal detachment at the equator from January 2014 to September 2015 were reviewed. All these patients were performed standard three channel 23G vitrectomy under a wide angle lens, in which, the 37 cases ( 37 eyes ) were randomly selected and performed single fluid-gas exchange, and the other 37 cases ( 37 eyes) were performed twice fluid-gas exchange. The intraoperative surgical complications and the postoperative success rate of retinal reposition in 1wk, 1, 3mo after surgery of the two group patients were observed.? RESULTS: The intraoperative surgical complication rates of the twice fluid-gas exchange group were less than that of the single fluid-gas exchange group. The postoperative success rate of retinal reposition in the twice fluid-gas exchange group significantly increased in 1wk and 1mo after surgery, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0. 05). But the postoperative success rate of retinal reposition in 3mo after surgery had no significant difference (P>0. 05).?CONCLUSION:The twice fluid-gas exchange operation was simple and it was beneficial for beginners to master. The incomplete drainage of the single fluid-gas exchange and the pore drainage in the posterior pole or in the peripheral part of the retina were avoided during the surgery. The intraoperative surgical complication rates were reduced and the postoperative success rate of retinal reposition were improved. This operation method had great application value in clinic.

Objective To compare the safe zone and safe angles between males and females for screw placement on the medial iliosciatic plate for acetabular posterior column using 3D reconstruction technique.Methods Normal pelvic CT scans of 52 adults (27 males and 25 females;aged from 18 to 74 years,averaging 47.2 years) were obtained to create pelvic 3D models.After the acetabulum was thickened by 5 mm,the width (d) of the safe zone for placement of the medial iliosciatic plate was measured.After the vertical distance (w) between the vertex of the obturator canal and the greater sciatic notch was measured,the ratio (r) of d/w was calculated.The recombined innominatum model was cut through the center of the acetabulum with a plane perpendicular to the quadrilateral plate and the greater sciatic notch.The cross-section was marked as M.In males,4 points at distances of 1.0 cm,1.5 cm,2.0 cm and 2.5 cm anterior to the greater sciatic notch were marked.At the 4 points,the angulations (∠ a,∠b,∠ c and ∠ d) between the quadrilateral plate and the tangent line of the outer edge of the thickened acetabulum model were measured on the cross-section M.In females,3 points at distances of 1.0 cm,1.5 cm and 2.0 cm anterior to the greater sciatic notch were marked before ∠a,∠b,and ∠c were measured.The differences in the above parameters were compared between males and females.Results The width (d) of the safe zone for placement of the medial iliosciatic plate was 28.56 ±2.44 mm in males and 24.36 ±2.47 mm in females;the ratio (r) was 0.61 ± 0.07 in males and 0.54 ± 0.05 in females.The safe angulations for screw placement in males,∠ a,∠b,∠cand ∠d,were 88.04°±3.18°,77.81°±3.85°,68.01°±4.11°and56.81°±4.81° while those in females,∠a,∠b and ∠c,were 91.29°±4.52°,76.23°±3.82° and 62.79°±3.51°,respectively.There were statistically significant differences between males and females in values of d,r,∠ a and ∠ c (P ＜ 0.05).Conclusions In fixation of acetabular posterior column fractures using medial iliosciatic plate,the differences between males and females should be taken into account.Besides,specific safe angles should be chosen according to the position of the plate.

ObjectiveTo observe the clinical effect of interventional embolization on hepatocellular carcinoma(HCC) with hepatic arterioportal shunts(APS) ,in the hope of improving patients' survival quality and time. MethodsTwenty-nine patients with HCC patients and APS after a successful PVA,steel coils embolization, all patients were given routine TACE therapy. The changes of gastrointestinal bleeding,ascites,diarrhea and aminotransferase were analyzed retrospectively. ResultsNineteen cases got successful embolization in the first time[achievement ratio 65.5％(19/29)]; 3 cases got recurrence after embolization [patency ratio 10.3％(3/29)],7 cases appeared new APS[incidence ratio 24.1％(7/29),5 cases were embolized 2 times, 2 cases were embolized 3 times]. The effective rate of gastrointestinal bleeding,diarrhoea,aacites were 91.7％ (11/12), 84.6％ ( 11/13 ), 83.3％ ( 15/18 ) respectively, which had significant difference between preoperative and postoperative condition. The survival rate of 3 months,6 months, 1 year,and 2 years after operation were 96.6％ (28/29),89.7％ (26/29),65.5％ (19/29),34.5％ (10/29).

Objective To explore the safety of Habib VesOpen bipolar radiofrequency ablation (RFA) catheter used in the treatment of portal vein tumor thrombus (PVTT). Methods A total of 10 miniature pigs were randomly divided into 3 groups. Group A(n=6):RFA of normal portal vein was directly performed;group B (n=2): balloon obstruction of the portal vein was performed first, which was followed by RFA for the fresh thrombus in the portal vein; group C (n=2): PVTT model was established first, and RFA of the portal vein was carried out when the portal thrombus became organized. MRI examination was employed at one, 3 and 4 weeks after RFA; the animals were sacrificed 4 weeks after RFA and pathological examination of portal vein was performed. Results Pigs of group A received portal vein RFA under the condition of 5 W power for 0.6-3.6 min. No obvious abnormality was detected by MRI and pathological examination , which were performed one month after the treatment. In the pigs of group B , MRI performed after RFA showed that the damage of portal vein area was more serious than that in the pigs of group A;abdominal MRI examination performed at one, 3 and 4 weeks after RFA showed that the portal venous edema was gradually decreased;pathological examination at one month after RFA demonstrated serious injury of adjacent liver tissue. Pigs of group C received portal vein RFA under the condition of 7 W power for 1.5 min; no obvious edema of the ablated area was observed on MRI performed after RFA , and pathological examination revealed organized thrombus necrosis and va scular endothelial cell damage. Conclusion When Habib VesOpen bipolar RFA catheter is used for the treatment of PVTT, the RFA power and time should be properly selected according to the severity of PVTT. In order to ensure a safer procedure, high power and short ablation time should be used when the severity of PVTT is mild, while low power and longer ablation time are recommended when the PVTT is more severe.

Objective To investigate the clinical significance and distribution of different rotational displacements on the sagittal plane in unstable pelvic fractures radiologically.Methods We retrospectively reviewed 82 patients with unilateral pelvic fracture who had been treated at our department from June 2005 to June 2015.They were 48 men and 34 women,with an average age of 43 ± 18 years.By Tile classification,there were 48 cases of type B and 34 cases of type C.Their rotational displacements on the sagittal plane of the pelvic ring were determined on the anteroposterior X-ray films of the pelvis by measuring the changed distances from the top of iliac crest to the lowest point of ischial tuberosity and to the pubic tubercle.The data were recorded for analysis of different displacements and their clinical significance.Results Of all the 82 patients,based on the preoperative radiographic evidence,36 (43.9％) showed sagittal plane rotational displacement.Of them,28 (77.8％) showed supination displacement and 8 (22.2％) pronation displacement.The preoperative CT three-dimensional reconstruction confirmed the findings from the X-ray films.Twenty-one of the 48 cases of Tile type B (43.8％) and 15 of the 34 cases of Tile type C (44.1％) showed sagittal plane rotational displacement.The success rate of closed reduction was,respectively,66.7％ (24/36) in the 36 cases with sagittal plane rotational displacement,62.5％ (5/8) in those with pronation displacement and 67.9％ (19/28) in those with supination displacement,all significantly lower than the total success rate of closed reduction in this cohort(84.1％).Conclusions The sagittal plane rotational (pronation and supination) displacement of pelvic fracture can be determined by measuring special points and lines on the anteroposterior radiographs of the pelvis.The supination displacement on the sagittal plane is more common.The unstable pelvic fracture with sagittal plane rotational displacement is more difficult to reduce.

Objective To discuss the methods of the heat preservation performance monitoring of the blood transport case and to provide the technical support for the safety of blood transportation.Methods At the different environment temperature,the amount of the cold resource was decided by the mass ratio of cold resource to blood and the temperature was automatically recorded by the intelligent temperature chip continuously,to monitor the changes of each monitoring point in the blood transport case.Results When the mass ratio of cold resource to blood was fixed at 1∶6,the cold chain of the blood transport case could keep the tempera-ture of 2-10 ℃ for 8 hours at the environment temperature of 12 ℃,It could keep the temperature of 2-10 ℃ for 4.5 hours at the environment temperature of 25 ℃,and it could keep the temperature of 2-10 ℃ for 2 hours at the environment temperature of 44℃.Conclusion When the mass ratio of cold resource to blood is fixed,as the environment temperature changes,the available time that the blood transport case keeps with the cold-chain requirement varies according to the results of the heat preservation per-formance monitoring of the blood transport case.

Objective To explore the clinical efficacy of medial iliosciatic plating via the Stoppa approach for complex acetabular fractures involving the posterior column.Methods Between February 2015 and February 2016,a total of 16 complex acetabular facture cases treated by the medial iliosciatic plate via the Stoppa approach were retrospectively analyzed in this study.This approach provided good exposure to a large region of the pelvis and acetabulum including pubis symphysis,pubic ramus,anterior and inner wall of acetabulum,quadrilateral surface,inner surface of posterior column,true pelvic margin,greater sciatic notch and sacroiliac articulation.The anterior and column was reduced and fixed by the anterior column plate and the medial ilioseiatie plate.The screw direction and angle were adjusted according to the intraoperative X-ray.Surgical time,amount of bleeding,and relevant complications were recorded.The reduction of the posterior column fracture was evaluated by Matta scoring system on the plain X-ray of the pelvic post-surgery,and functional outcomes of the hip joint affected were evaluated one year post-surgery by the Merle d'Aubigne-Postel scoring system.All the cases were followed for at least 12 months.Results The reduction and fixation of the posterior column was accomplished in all the 1 6 patients.The average surgical time was 165.5 min (range,130-270 min).The average blood loss was 1 245.6 ml (range,600-5 600 ml).Thc intraoperative infusionof concentrated red blood cells averaged 6 units.According to the Matta scoring system,anatomical reduction was achieved in 12 cases,satisfactory reduction in 3,and poor reduction in one.The patients were followed from 12 to 22 months.According to the Merle d'Aubigne-Postel scoring system,there were 11 cases of excellent and 3 cases of good,yielding a good or excellent rate of 87.5％.The average Merle d'Aubigne-Postel score was 15.8 (range,8-18).There were 1 case of external iiiac vein rupture and 1 case of bladder rupture.Both were repaired during surgery.Superior gluteal artery rupture was found in 1 case and surgical ligation of the artery was performed during surgery.Conclusion In the treatment of complicated acetabular fractures involving the posterior column,the medial iliosciatic plating via the Stoppa approach is safe and effective,because it can provide a safe and sufficient operative field for surgeons to reduce and fix the posterior column fractures,and it leads to satisfactory recovery of the patients with limited complications.
