Objective To investigate the clinical manifestation, diagnosis, therapies and medical economics of cesarean scar pregnancy (CSP). Methods From Jan. 2005 to Dec. 2008, 96 patients with CSP treated in Obstetrics and Gynecology Hospital of Fudan University were studied retrospectively. Those cases were divided into 3 groups. Thirty-three patients were treated with methotrexate (MTX) 50 mg/m2 intravenously guttae in group A. Among that 18 cases were treated with MTX, after 5 - 10 days they underwent dilation and curettage of uterus; 15 cases were given by dilation and curettage first if the level of serum human chorionic gonadotrophin-β(β-hCG) descent less than 30% in every 48 hours for 3 times after curettage, then MTX (50 mg/m2) intravenously guttae. Sixty patients were treated with MTX 100 mg bilateral uterine artery injection and embolization in group B. After 2 days, they underwent curettage.Group C: 3 patients were treated with laparotomy lesion excision. The following clinical parameters were compared, including blood loss( M), lesion diameter (-x±s), blood β-hCG level (M)before treatment, the number of cases with myometrial thickness anterior to the CSP ≤3 mm, the resistant index (RI) ≤0. 5,expense(-x ± s), hospital days(-x ±s) in those 3 groups. The correlation of blood loss with lesion diameter and blood β-hCG level was studied. Results ( 1 ) Clinical manifestation: bleeding loss were 20 ml in MTX +curettage of group A, 10 ml in curettage + MTX of group A, 12 ml in group B and 200 ml in group C. The volume of bleeding loss in group C was significantly higher than those in group A or group B ( P < 0. 01 ).The lesion diameter were ( 23 ± 15 ) mm in curettage + MTX of group A and ( 30 ± 14 ) mm of group B ,which were higher than ( 16 ± 8 ) mm of MTX + curettage of group A (P < 0. 01 ). The lesion diameter of (52 ± 7 )mm in group C were significantly bigger than those in the other groups ( P < 0. 01 ). The level of blood β-hCG levels were 21 592 U/L in MTX + curettage of group A, 979 U/L in curettage + MTX of group A,which reach statistical difference ( P <0. 05). The level of blood β-hCG levels were 11 312 U/L in group B and 101 U/L in group C. Among 28 cases with Rl≤0. 5,there was 8 cases in group A (24% ,8/33),18 cases in group B ( 30%, 18/60) and 2 cases in group C (2/3). Among 23 cases with myometrial thickness anterior to the CSP ≤ 3 mm, there was 21 cases in group B (35%, 21/60 ), which were significantly higher than 2 in group A (6%, 2/33 ) and none in group C ( P < 0. 05 ). The expense were ( 5578 ± 3679) yuan in MTX + curettage of group A and (5346 ± 2765 ) yuan in curettage + MTX of group,which did not reach statistical difference (P>0. 05). The expense were (7860 ±2104) yuan in group B,which were significantly higher than those in group A and (5004 ± 421 ) yuan in group C (P < 0. 05 ). The hospital days were ( 15 ±8) days and ( 19 ± 14) days of group A, ( 16 ± 10) days in group B and ( 17 ±8)days in group C, there was no significant difference among those treatments ( P > 0. 05 ). (2) Correlatin:there was positive correlation between bleeding loss and lesion diameter( r = 0. 31, P < 0. 05 ) or blood β-hCG level ( r = 0. 35, P < 0. 05). Conclusions MTX intravenously guttae, MTX uterine artery injection and embolization, and laparotomy lesion excision were all properly used in treatment of CSP. MTX uterine artery injection and embolization was recommended for those with big lesion, high β-hCG level, less myometrial thickness anterior to the CSP or plentiful blood supply of the lesion but the expense might be high.

Objective:To investigate the clinical value of the free fibula flap transplantation in repair of the defect of tibia and soft tissue with the help of augmented reality (AR) technology.Methods:From May, 2017 to May, 2019, 9 patients with tibial and soft tissue defects were treated. Before operation, CTA scan was performed on both shanks to obtain DICOM data of tibial bone defect. Images of the designed fibular flap and its blood supply model were imported into Sina software through computer virtual surgery assistant technology. With the AR technology, information of virtual fibula flap were projected onto the body surface at the donor site, and the operation was carried out under the precise positioning. In this group, the free fibular flap was harvested with an area of 6.0 cm×4.0 cm-12.0 cm×6.0 cm and the length of fibula was 6.0-13.5 cm. The free fibula flap were used to repair the tibial defect with 5.0-12.0 cm in length and soft tissue defect area at 5.0 cm×3.0 cm-10.0 cm×4.5 cm. Patients were followed-up to observe the survival of fibular flap and the functional recovery of the repaired lower limb, and evaluate the clinical effect.Results:All the fibular flaps survived without vascular crisis and without serious complications occurred at both of donor and recipient sites. After 8-12 months of follow-up, the flap was soft in texture and good in blood supply. The appearance of the repair site was not bloated. Callus began to form at the junction of fibula and tibia at 3-5 months and healed well in 8-12 months. No bone resorption, nonunion, loosening or falling off of screws were found. There was no pain in the shank of the recipient area. Patients could stand and walk freely, and the weight-bearing function was close to normal. According to Enneking system, the average score was 27 points; 7 cases were excellent and 2 cases were good.Conclusion:Application of AR technology in the repair of tibial bone defect with fibular flap transplantation has good clinical effect and has certain practical value.

Nanocrystals are nanoscale (1-1000 nm) dispersion systems in which small numbers of surfactants or polymers are used as stabilizers to disperse insoluble drug particles in water or oil. Nanocrystals enjoy not only high drug content, but also a simple and mature preparation process. At present, 24 nanocrystals products that have been marketed mainly focus on enhancing the solubility and bioavailability of poorly soluble drugs. And recent years have witnessed an increasing number of research reports on target drug delivery of nanocrystals through particle size control and surface modification. This paper mainly introduces three targeting strategies for prolonging the in vivo circulation time of nanocrystals, increasing the affinity for tumor cells and achieving the response to internal and external stimuli, and discusses the current challenges in the application of nanocrystal technology to targeted anti-tumor drugs.

Objective:To investigate the clinical value of augmented reality (AR) technology combined with Doppler ultrasound in repairing soft tissue defects around ankle with posterior tibial artery perforator flap.Methods:From June, 2017 to June, 2020, 13 patients with soft tissue defects around ankle were repaired with the posterior tibial artery perforator flap sized 3.0 cm×7.0 cm-5.0 cm×10.0 cm. Preoperative CTA scan was performed to obtain the 3-dimensional image of the blood supply of the donor site. The origin and direction of blood supply, length of pedicle, diameter and the location of perforator were determined. An image fusion software based on Android mobile phone was used from the body surface to realize the navigation by AR, and to mark the locations of the points where blood vessels ran and passed by. At the same time, Doppler ultrasound was employed to confirm the navigation. The optimal puncture fulcrum was used as the flap rotation point in design of the flap. After the flap had been designed, the flap was harvested and the defect was repaired. Outpatient clinic follow-up was performed to evaluate the survival of flap and the function of ankle.Results:All 13 flaps survied without vascular issues. After 6-16 (average 10) months follow-up, all flaps survived. The flaps appeared soft with good blood supply. The colour of the repaired sites were basically the same as normal skin. According to American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) , the ankle function was excellent in 9 patients and good in 4 patients. There was no obvious scar formation on the donor sites.Conclusion:The application of AR technology combined with Doppler ultrasound in the surgical planning of posterior tibial artery perforator flap has advantages in easy to operate in clinical practice. It can reduce the risk of surgery, and has significance in clinical practice.
