Complex ventral hernia refers to a large hernia that is complicated by a series of concurrent conditions. Change in intra-abdominal pressure is one of the main pathways through which various factors exert an impact on perioperative risk and postoperative recurrence. Taking abdominal pressure reconstruction as the core, the treatment strategy for complex abdominal hernia can be formulated from three aspects: improving patients' tolerance, expanding abdominal cavity volume, and reducing the volume of abdominal contents. Improving patients' tolerance includes abdominal wall compliance training and progressive preoperative pneumoperitoneum. To expand the volume of the abdominal cavity, implanting hernia repair materials, component separation technique, autologous tissue transplantation, component expend technique, and chemical component separation can be used. Initiative content reduction surgery and temporary abdominal closure may be performed to reduce the volume of abdominal contents. For different cases of complex ventral hernia, personalized treatment measures can be safely and feasibly adopted depending on the condition of the patients and the intra-abdominal pressure situation.

Treatment of "extraordinary injuries" is a major challenge for surgeons major in burn care and plastic surgery, though they are experts in wound treatment and repair. The "extraordinary injuries" is very complicated, and its treatment needs multidisciplinary cooperation. Surgeons not only have to master the relevant knowledge, but also should have the expertise to choose the appropriate treatment targeting the special pathological characteristics of the extraordinary wounds. Therefore, surgeons should learn and aggregate more knowledge regarding extraordinary injuries, strengthen muture communication, and encourage research work.

Tubularized graft urethroplasty fails largely because of inadequate graft take. Prefabrication of buccal mucosa lined flap has theoretical indications for constructing neourethra with an independent blood supply. The efficacy of using a tissue expander capsule as an induced vascular bed to prefabricate an axial vascularized buccal mucosa-lined flap for tubularized urethral reconstruction in a rabbit model was tested. The experiments were performed in three stages. First, silicone tissue expanders were inserted into the groin to induce vascularized capsule pouch formation. Next, buccal mucosa grafts were transplanted to the newly formed capsular tissue supplied by the axial vessel for buccal mucosa-lined flap prefabrication. Then, circumferential urethral defects were created and repaired by buccal mucosa graft (Group 1), capsule flap (Group 2) and prefabricated capsule buccal mucosa composite flap (Group 3). With retrograde urethrography, no rabbits in Group 1 maintained a wide urethral caliber. In Group 2, the discontinued epithelial layer regenerated at 1 month, and the constructed neourethra narrowed even though the lumen surface formed intact urothelial cells at 3 months. In Group 3, buccal mucosa formed the lining in the neourethra and kept a wide urethral caliber for 3 months. The capsule may serve as an induced vascular bed for buccal mucosa-lined flap prefabrication. The prefabricated buccal mucosa-lined flap may serve as a neourethra flap for circumferential urethral replacement.

The annual incidence of oral cancer in the world is more than 300 000, and the five-year survival rate is 50%~60%. Every year, 145 400 people died due to tongue cancer, of which tongue cancer accounts for nearly 40%. Although tongue cancer has tumor heterogeneity and individual differences in prognosis, surgery is still the first choice for the treatment of tongue cancer. The effect of tongue cancer surgery can directly determine the survival time of patients. The defect caused by tongue cancer surgery seriously affects the patients' physical functions such as appearance, language, chewing and swallowing. The surgical treatment of tongue cancer with functional reconstruction can improve the quality of life of patients. In the past few decades, genomics has enhanced understanding of tongue cancer. The preclinical tumor model preserves the tumor heterogeneity, which has a great application prospect in the discovery of tumor biomarkers and the clinical translation of drugs. Many advances have been made in the diagnosis and treatment of tongue cancer, but there are still many controversies in clinical practice. Therefore, this expert consensus summarizes the progress and controversial hot spots of surgical diagnosis and treatment of tongue cancer, mainly including preoperative diagnosis and evaluation, surgical treatment points and postoperative functional rehabilitation.

OBJECTIVETo establish a rabbit model of orbital hypertelorism for plastic and reconstructive surgery and evaluate the surgical effects.

METHODSOrbital osteotomies and medial translocation was performed in 16 New Zealand rabbits (4 to 6 months old) by combined intracranial-extracranial approach. The interorbital distance (IOD) and bone healing between the orbits were evaluated with gross measurement. X-ray and histological examinations were performed immediately and 12 weeks after the operation.

RESULTSThe average IOD of the rabbits was 0.74 cm after completion of the operation, but increased to 0.96 cm 12 weeks after the operation, showing significant relapse of orbital hypertelorism (P<0.01).

CONCLUSIONThe IOD can be decreased successfully in this rabbit model.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the safety and efficacy of suprapubic liposuction combined with modified Devine surgery in adult patients with concealed penis caused by obesity. METHODS: The clinical data of 26 adult patients with buried penis admitted to the Department of Urology of Peking University People' s Hospital and the Department of Surgery of Beijing Eden Hospital from September 2017 to June 2020 were analyzed retrospectively. The average age of the patients was (33.0 ± 5.7) years, the average body mass index (BMI) was (29.0±5.4) kg/m², and the penis length in the supine position was (2.9±1.3) cm. All the patients were treated with suprapubic liposuction combined with modified Devine operation. The improvement of penis length and complications were statistically analyzed after operation, and the satisfaction of the patients was followed up, 1 = dissatisfied; 2 = basically satisfied; 3 = satisfied; 4 = very satisfied. The measurement data were expressed in (mean±SD), nonparametric Friedman tests and multiplex analysis methods were used for data comparison. RESULTS: The average liposuction volume of the 26 patients was (450.0±90.2) mL. Immediately after operation: the penis length was (7.4±2.1) cm, increased by (4.5±1.6) cm compared with that before operation; three months after operation: the penis length was (5.3±1.8) cm, increased by (2.4±0.7) cm compared with that before operation. There was significant difference in penis length before operation, immediately after operation and three months after operation (P < 0.01). All the patients had no sexual intercourse disorder or dysuria. Postoperative edema occurred in 11 cases (42.3%), ecchymosis in 7 cases (26.9%), poor healing of prepuce wound in 2 cases (7.8%), hematoma in 1 case (3.8%), 5 cases (19.2%) without postoperative complications, and no patient had wound infection. Seventeen patients (65.4%) were very satisfied with the appearance and function of the penis, 6 patients (23.1%) were satisfied, 3 patients (11.5%) were basically satisfied, and no patients were dissatisfied. The average score of all the patients' satisfaction with postoperative penis appearance and function was (3.5±0.7). CONCLUSION Suprapubic liposuction combined with modified Devine operation is safe and effective in the treatment of adult-acquired buried penis.

Peyronie's disease is a common condition resulting in penile deformity, psychological bother, and sexual dysfunction. Erectile dysfunction is one common comorbid condition seen in men with Peyronie's disease, and its presence significantly impacts treatment considerations. In a man with Peyronie's disease and significant erectile dysfunction who desires the most reliable treatment, penile prosthesis placement should be strongly considered. In some instances, such as those patients with relatively mild curvature, prosthesis placement alone may result in adequate straightening. However, many patients will require additional straightening maneuvers such as manual modeling, penile plication, and tunica albuginea incision with or without grafting. For patients with severe penile shortening, penile length restoration techniques may also be considered. Herein, we provide a comprehensive clinical review of penile prosthesis placement in men with Peyronie's disease. Specifically, we discuss preoperative indications, intraoperative considerations, adjunctive straightening maneuvers, and postoperative outcomes.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate the effectiveness of joystick technique assisted closed reduction and cannulated screw fixation in the treatment of femoral neck fracture. METHODS: Seventy-four patients with fresh femoral neck fractures who met the selection criteria between April 2017 and December 2018 were selected and divided into observation group (36 cases with closed reduction assisted by joystick technique) and control group (38 cases with closed manual reduction). There was no significant difference in gender, age, fracture side, cause of injury, Garden classification, Pauwels classification, time from injury to operation, and complications (except for hypertension) between the two groups ( P>0.05). The operation time, intraoperative infusion volume, complications, and femoral neck shortening were recorded and compared between the two groups. Garden reduction index was used to evaluate the effect of fracture reduction, and score of fracture reduction (SFR) was designed and was used to evaluate the subtle reduction effect of joystick technique. RESULTS: The operation was successfully completed in both groups. There was no significant difference in operation time and intraoperative infusion volume between the two groups ( P>0.05). All patients were followed up 17-38 months, with an average of 27.7 months. Two patients in the observation group received joint replacement due to failure of internal fixation during the follow-up, and the other patients had fracture healing. Within 1 week after operation, the Garden reduxtion index of the observation group was better than the control group; the SFR score of the observation group was also higher than that of the control group; the proportion of femoral neck shortening within 1 week after operation and at 1 year after operation in the observation group were lower than those in the control group. The differences of the above indexes between the two groups were significant ( P<0.05). CONCLUSION The joystick technique can improve the effectiveness of closed reduction of femoral neck fractures and reduce the incidence of femoral neck shortening. The designed SFR score can directly and objectively evaluate the reduction effect of femoral neck fracture.

Objective: To explore the clinical effects of proximal ulnar artery perforator flap combined with iliac bone graft in the reconstruction of subtotal thumb or finger defects. Methods: A retrospective observational study was conducted. From August 2016 to August 2019, 7 patients with thumb or finger defects caused by mechanical damage who met the inclusion criteria were admitted to Ruihua Affiliated Hospital of Soochow University, including 6 males and 1 female, aged 46 to 58 years. Their length of fingers was repaired with iliac bone, with length of 2.0 to 3.0 cm. After the bone graft, the skin defect area of the affected finger ranged from 2.8 cm×2.2 cm to 6.0 cm×3.2 cm. Then the free proximal ulnar artery perforator flap with area of 3.0 cm×2.4 cm to 6.5 cm×3.5 cm was used to cover the wounds. The wounds in donor sites of iliac crest and flap were directly sutured. The survival of flap in one week post surgery and the donor site wound healing in 2 weeks post surgery were observed, respectively. During the follow-up, the appearance and sensory function of the affected finger, bone healing, and scar hypertrophy of wound in the donor site were observed and evaluated. At the last follow-up, the functional recovery of the affected finger was evaluated with trial standard for the evaluation of functions of the upper limbs of the Hand Surgery Society of Chinese Medical Association. Results: In one week post surgery, all the flaps survived. In 2 weeks post surgery, the iliac bone and the wounds in forearm donor site healed. During the follow-up of 5 to 13 months, the flap was good in appearance, without obvious pigmentation; the sensory recovery reached level S₂ in 5 patients and S₀ in 2 patients; all the grafted iliac bones were bony union without obvious resorption; the wounds in donor site healed well, with only mild scar formation. At the last follow-up, the shape of the reconstructed finger was close to the healthy finger, and the functional evaluation results were excellent in 3 cases and good in 4 cases. Conclusions: The use of proximal ulnar artery perforator flap combined with iliac bone graft to reconstruct subtotal thumb or finger can partially restore part of the appearance and function, with less damage to the donor site. It is a good choice for patients who have low expectations of appearance and function for the reconstructed finger.
