Objective Cephalometry has been used to measure the changes of mandibular shape before and after the surgery.The aim of this study was to evaluate the effect of mandibular angle osteotomy.Methods A lot of 42 cases with complete data were selected,cephalometric analysis were performed before operation and one week and 6 months after surgery,respectively.Furthermore,the data of six months postoperatively were compared to those of the beauty people reported in the literature.Results At one week after surgery,the average distance between the gonions decreased (17.70± 8.46) mm,the average length of the mandibular ramus reduced (5.84±3.26) mm,the average mandibular body length increased (4.61±2.74) mm,the average gonial angle increased (14.78±6.65)°,and the average mandibular plane angle increased (10.29±3.82)° (P＜0.05).At six months postoperatively,the first three linear measurements increased (3.68±2.91) mm,(1.66±2.51) mm and (2.10±2.37) mm,respectively;however,the last two angular measurements reduced (2.86±3.02)°and (1.77±2.62)° respectively.The data of six months postoperatively were compared to those of the beauty people reported in the literature,and there were statistically differences between the linear measurements,but no statistically differences between the angular measurements.Conclusions Re duction mandibuloplasty can modificate mandibular contouring three-dimensionally.Despite bone regeneration resuhs in linear or angular measurements change,postoperative angular shape is predominantly maintained,and so the patients can reach the level of beauty papulation.

Objective To explore the clinical effect of endoscopic-assisted intraoral reduction mandibuloplasty.Methods From January 2010 to December 2014,a total of 186 patients with prominent mandibular angles underwent one stage long-curved ostectomy combined with splitting corticectomy through an intraoral approach with endoscopic assistence according to preoperative design for reduction mandible three-dimensionally,and achieved reduced width of the lower face with smooth curve of mandibular edge.The distance between both gonions was measured and the complications recorded to evaluate the clinical effect of the surgery during follow-up.Results All the 186 patients had no complications of bleeding and infection.The mean distance between both gonions measurement was (117.3±2.5) mm before surgery and (102.6±2.3) mm after operation;it was reduced (14.1 ±2.4)mm.After 1 month to 2 years of follow up,the width of the lower face was reduced in the frontal view and the mandibular angle appeared natural and inconspicuous in the lateral view.The patients were satisfied with both their frontal and lateral appearances.Conclusions Intraoral approach mandibular ostectomy with endoscopic-assisted allows surgeons to perform accurate,safe and reproducible ostectomies and to recontour mandible symmetrically and reduce the complications.

Objective To investigate the feasibility of urethral reconstruction by using stretched electrospun silk fibroin matrices.Methods Stretched electrospun silk fibroin matrix was prepared,and the structure of the material was assessed by electron microscopy.Canine urothelial cells were isolated,expanded and seeded onto the material for 1 week to obtain a tissue-engineered graft.The tissue-engineered graft was assessed using HE staining and electron microscopy scanning.A dorsal urethral mucosa defect was created in 9 female beagle dogs.In the experimental group,tissue-engineered mucosa was used to repair urethral mucosa defects in 6 dogs.No substitute was used in the 3 dogs of the control group.Retrograde urethrography was performed at 1,2 and 6 months after grafting.The urethral grafts were analyzed grossly and histologically.Results Electron microscopy scanning revealed that the material had a 3 dimensional porous structure.Urothelial cells grew on the material and showed good biocompatibility with the stretched silk fibroin matrices.Canines implanted with tissue-engineered mucosa voided without difficulty.Retrograde urethrography revealed no signs of stricture,and histological staining showed gradual epithelial cell development and stratified epithelial layers at 1,2 and 6 months.The canines in the control group showed difficulty in voiding.Retrograde urethrography showed urethral stricture,and histological staining showed that no or only one layer of epithelial cells developed.A severe inflammatory reaction was also observed in the control group.Conclusion Stretched electrospun silk fibroin matrices have good biocompatibility with urothelial cells,and could be a potential material for urethral reconstruction.

ObjectiveTo investigate related factors for severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) with sepsis. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of 178 SAP patients who were admitted from January 2007 to March 2020, and according to the presence or absence of sepsis, they were divided into sepsis group with 56 patients and non-sepsis group with 122 patients. The t-test was used for comparison of continuous data between the two groups, and the chi-square test was used for comparison of categorical data between the two groups. A logistic regression model was used for multivariate analyses. ResultsThe incidence rate of sepsis was 31.46% in SAP patients. The univariate analysis showed that there were significant differences between the patients without sepsis and those with sepsis in APACHEⅡ score, blood glucose, blood calcium, serum total cholesterol, serum triglyceride, blood urea nitrogen, serum creatinine, serum albumin, admission to the intensive care unit, hypoxemia, deep venous catheterization, mechanical ventilation, surgical procedure, blood purification, indwelling urinary catheterization, and extent of pancreatic necrosis (all P＜0.05). The multivariate analysis showed that APACHEⅡ score (odds ratio ［OR］=6.748, 95% confidence interval ［CI］: 2.191-20.788, P＜0.05), hypoxemia (OR=3.383, 95% CI: 1.112-10.293, P＜0.05), blood glucose (OR=5.288, 95%CI: 1.176-23.781, P＜0.05), extent of pancreatic necrosis (OR=5.523, 95%CI: 1.575-19.360, P＜0.05), and serum creatinine (OR=5.012, 95%CI: 1.345-18.762, P＜0.05) were independent risk factors for infectious SAP with sepsis, while laparoscopic removal of focal necrotic tissue (OR=0.250, 95%CI: 0.066-0951, P＜0.05) was an independent protective factor against SAP with sepsis. ConclusionThere are several important measures to reduce SAP with sepsis, including blood glucose control, protection of the functions of important organs such as lungs and kidneys, application of minimally invasive surgery to remove focal necrotic tissue, and emphasis on the treatment of critically ill patients with a high degree of pancreatic necrosis.

Objective:To study the factors related to infection by multiple drug-resistant bacteria (MDROs) in patients with infectious pancreatic necrosis (IPN).Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on the clinical data of 134 IPN patients with definitive etiologies treated in the Department of General Surgery, the Third Affiliated Hospital of Guizhou Medical University from January 2009 to February 2020. There were 85 males and 49 females. The age was (46.69±14.11) years. The IPN patients were divided into the multiple and the non-multiple MDROs infection groups based on drug resistance of pathogens in drainage fluid. The difference between the two groups of patients, including the number of antibacterial drugs used, the number of combined antibacterial drugs, the length of ICU stay, and other related factors were analyzed. Univariate and multivariate analyses were performed.Results:Among the 134 patients with IPN, 41 (30.60%) had complex MDROs infection and 93 (69.40%) had non complex MDROs infection. Univariate analysis showed that the course of disease, APACHE II score, extrapancreatic infection, number of surgical operations, time from onset to operation, patency of drainage tube, length of ICU stay, time of using antibiotics, number of changing courses of antibiotics, number of combined antibiotics, blood glucose and glycosylated hemoglobin were related to occurrence of multiple MDROs (all P<0.05); Multivariate analysis showed that glycated hemoglobin ( OR=3.957, 95% CI: 1.073-14.600), time from onset to operation ( OR=6.086, 95% CI: 1.263-29.325), number of changing courses of antibiotics ( OR=3.560, 95% CI: 1.077-11.772), number of combined antibiotics ( OR=3.560, 95% CI: 1.077-11.772), length of ICU stay ( OR=3.590, 95% CI: 1.126-11.448) were independent risk factors of MDROs infection in IPN patients ( P<0.05). Conclusion:Early debridement of infective foci, good control of blood glucose, reduced length of ICU stay, rational use of antibiotics to avoid unnecessary changing courses of antibiotics, appropriate use of combination of antibiotics could reduce the number of MDROs infection in IPN patients.

【Objective】 To explore the emergency treatment of penoscrotal avulsion injury based on the American Association for Surgery and Trauma (AAST) penoscrotal injury grade. 【Methods】 Data of 30 patients with penoscrotal avulsion injury treated in our hospital with in-situ suture, skin grafting or skin flap during Oct.2003 and Dec.2017 were reviewed. 【Results】 Among the 30 patients, 29 received emergency surgery, including in-situ suturein 15 grade Ⅰ-Ⅲ cases, skin graft in 8 grade Ⅳ-Ⅴ cases, and skin flap in 6 cases;1 case received delayed operation due to wound infection on admission. In the perioperative period,25 cases had more than 90% wound healing, 3 cases had 70% wound healing after wound dressing change, and 2 cases had complete necrosis. Second-stage skin graft yielded satisfactory penoscrotal appearance. 【Conclusion】 According to the specific conditions of patients, reasonable surgical methods can be selected. For grade Ⅰ-Ⅲ patients, in-situ suture can be used, while for grade Ⅳ-Ⅴ patients, wound condition, age, fertility and other factors should be taken into consideration so as to preserve the function of testis to the maximum extent.
