Objective To explore the entrapment to the deep branch of the ulnar nerve at the wrist,to assist the surgeon in diagnosis and treatment of Guyon canal syndrome.Methods Twenty fresh upper limbs were dissected on loupe(?5),to record the relationship between the ulnar nerve and the hypothenar muscles,the course of the ulnar nerve at the wrist.Results The deep branchs of the ulnar nerve go through an intermuscular space after runing out of the Guyon canal.The intermuscular space consisits of the superficial and deep head of the opponens digiti minimi and the hook of the hamate,which has one entrance and one exit.We named the intermuscular space as the hiatus of opponens digiti minimi,and named the proximal edge of the superficial head of the opponens digiti minimi as the fascial arch of the opponens digiti minimi.Conclusion We found that the fascial arch of the opponens digiti minimi can compress the deep branch of the ulnar nerve causing motor deficit of the intrinsic muscles of hands.

Objective To investigate the anti-rejection effect of T cell vaccination combined with FK506 of heterogenic transplantation on rat nerve. Methods SD rats were vaccinated by the spleen cells of BABL/c mice; T cell vaccines were activated and vaccinated in the spleen cells of these SD rats. The SD rats of nerve transplantation recipient were vaccinated with T cells combined with FKS06. The mixture lymphocytes culture, microcytotoxicity assay, histological alteration of nerves, humid weights of tibial anterior muscle were observed to confirm the anti-rejection effect of T cell vaccination combined with FK506 treatment. Results The humid weights of tibial anterior muscle of the vaccinated rats combined with FKS06 treatment were statistically different from those in control group (P ＜ 0.05), and so as the index of rejection (e.g. lymphocytes transformation efficiency) (P ＜ 0.05). Conclusion T cell vaccination combined with FK506 treatment can inhibit the rejection of heterogenic transplantation on rat peripheral nerve.

Objective To study the rehabilitative effect of velvet antler polypeptides-PLGA compound membrane on peripheral nerve injury.Methods Two doses(3 and 15 mg?g~(-1)) of velvet antler polypeptides-PLGA compound membrane(thickness 50 ?m) were used to wrap the sutures of severed sciatic nerves,which were compared with nerve sutures only.2,4 and 6 weeks post-operation,general morphological,electrophysiological,histological and electron microscopic observations and examinations were investigated.Results There were no ulcers in the nars and toes in the treatment group,light conglutination appeared in nerve anastomosis and around tissues.At 6th week post-operation,conglutination was alleviated obviously than 2 weeks post-operation;findings from latency inducing potentials of calf triceps dominated by sciatic nerves showed that recover ratios(%) in treatment group((2 weeks:)9.07?1.44,8.02?1.41;6 weeks: 49.87?9.69,50.11?6.11) were better than those in control group((2 weeks:)2.52?1.83;6 weeks:30.31?6.32) obviously in each time(P

[Objective]To study the influence of VAP(velvet antler polypeptide)-chitosan-honey suspension on decubitus ulcer.[Method]Swines'pressure ulcers were used as decubitus ulcer model.Honey was used as solvent carrier.VAP and chitosan were put into the honey in different proportion.The suspension was applied to the ulcer once a day for seven days.The dressings were changed once every other day.The healing state of the ulcer was observed and the area of the ulcer was calculated.The changes of the ulcer histopathology were observed.[Result]In the group of the suspension proportion of the VAP to the chitosan was 4:1,the wounds had little effusion and the granulation tissues grew fast with the scars falling off early and Absolutely.Pathology results indicated that in the group of the suspension proportion of the VAP to chitosan was 4:1,none necrosis was found,the epithelization was apparent,and the inflammatory cells were fewer.There was no edema,but more newly born blood vessles.[Conclusion]The VAP-chitosan-honey suspension could apparently promote the healing of decubitus ulcer,but the possible mechanism needs to be further studied.

Objective To analyze the long term outcomes of antebrachial flap with a pedicle of the posterior interosseous artery Methods Ninety cases were followed up for 1～16 years, the indication and long term outcomes and dorsal aspect of the forearm were analyzed and evaluated retrospectively Results Eighty nine cases survived, except one case, the conteur of forearm and hand were satisfied Conclusion Antebrachial flap with a pedicle of the posterior interosseous artery is an optimal method to repair soft tissue defects of hand.

Peripheral nerve injuries, the worldwide difficult and complicated diseases, cause serious dysfunction but without ideal strategies to assist the successful treatment and recovery. The primary strategy to repair the peripheral nerve injuries is to bridge the lesions by promoting axon regeneration. The importance of mechanical factors in the nervous system has been appreciated only recently. It has been demonstrated that the application of external mechanical force is able to direct axonal outgrowth and to stimulate axonal elongation. For this purpose, to direct axonal growth cones in vivo with accurate force appears to be a challenge that must be resolved. Bionanotechnology is promising a new tool that offers the possibility to influence the process of axonal regeneration. The magnetic force generated by the interaction between Magnetic nanoparticles (MNPs) and magnetic fields provides remote, non-invasive, accurate, and controllable lead and control of neuronal axon regeneration.

Objective To investigate the probabilities of brain-derived stem cells from fetal rats differentiating into neurons and astrocytes by velvet antler polypeptide(VAP) in vitro. Methods Neural stem cells from E12-14d rats were cultured for 7 days until neural stem cells (NSCs) aggregations were formed into neurospheres. The neurospheres were cultured at different concentrations of VAP, and immunocytochemistry was used to detect the differentiation of neural stem cells. Results The differentiated cells in 50?g/L VAP group are more than that in control group; the number of NSE positive cells in 50?g/L,100?g/L and 200?g/L groups is more than that in control group.Conclusion Neural stem cells can be successfully induced into neurons by VAP in vitro, which could provide a basis for regeneration of nerve system.;

0.05).Conclusion The long-term curative effects of one end-to-side and double end-to-side neurorrhaphy are the same.The proximal end of the transected nerve can be reconnected with the distal end by double end-to-side neurorrhaphy,but the connected fibers have only partial effects on the recovery of the nerve.

Objective To develop a new system of computer-aided design(CAD) for individual metacarpophalangeal joint prosthesis based on rapid prototyping technique. Methods A hand of cadaver was scanned with PLUS-4 spiral computed tomography (CT).Then the transaxial 2D image data of digitus metacarpophalangeal joint were reconstructed into 3D digitized contour data by 3DMSR that was designed by ourselves. Then,the intramedullary stem was designed in software of Surface 9.0. Results The 3D contour image of metacarpophalangeal joint presented was reconstructed by 3DMSR and edited by Surface 9.0 easily for CAD of individual metacarpophalangeal joint.The intramedullary cavity was like choanoid. The intramedullary stem longitude of articular head and fossa were 47.31 and 35.20 mm.The intramedullary stem fit cavity.The model fit anatomical shape. Conclusion The 3D contour image of metacarpophalangeal joint can be obtained by spiral CT scanning,and the digitized data can be applied directly to CAD of individual artificial joint and subsequently rapid prototyping fabricating.In addition,the reconstruction method is simple and can be applied widely to clinical implant fabricating practice of orthopaedics.
