Objective: To assess the effectiveness of transanal drainage tube (TDT) in reducing the incidence of anastomotic leak following anterior resection in patients with rectal cancer. Methods: We conducted a systematic search for relevant studies published from inception to October 2022 across multiple databases, including PubMed, Embase, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, CNKI, Wanfang, and VIP. Meta-analysis was performed using Review Manager 5.4 software. The primary outcomes included total incidence of anastomotic leak, grade B and C anastomotic leak rates, reoperation rate, anastomotic bleeding rate, and overall complication rate. Results: Three randomized controlled trials involving 1115 patients (559 patients in the TDT group and 556 in the non-TDT group) were included. Meta-analysis showed that the total incidences of anastomotic leak and of grade B anastomotic leak were 5.5% (31/559) and 4.5% (25/559), respectively, in the TDT group and 7.9% (44/556) and 3.8% (21/556), respectively, in the non-TDT group. These differences are not statistically significant (P=0.120, P=0.560, respectively). Compared with the non-TDT group, the TDT group had a lower incidence of grade C anastomotic leak (1.6% [7/559] vs. 4.5% [25/556]) and reoperation rate (0.9% [5/559] vs. 4.3% [24/556]), but a higher incidence of anastomotic bleeding (8.2% [23/279] vs. 3.6% [10/276]). These differences were statistically significant (P=0.003, P=0.001, P=0.030, respectively). The overall complication rate was 26.5%(74/279) in the TDT group and 27.2% (75/276) in the non-TDT group. These differences are not statistically significant (P=0.860). Conclusions: TDT did not significantly reduce the total incidence of anastomotic leak but may have potential clinical benefits in preventing grade C anastomotic leak. Notably, placement of TDT may increase the anastomotic bleeding rate.

The choice of friction interface has always been a controversial topic in hip arthroplasty. Although the metal-on-metal (MoM) interface has gradually faded out of our vision, its revision is a clinical difficulty. Adverse reactions to metal debris (ARMD) is the most common indication for MoM hip arthroplasty revision, and the clinical results of hip arthroplasty due to ARMD are not satisfactory. At present, the indications and suggestions for revision of ARMD are not uniform. In this article, the clinical diagnosis, indications of revision, risk factors of prognosis, intraoperative suggestions and reasons for revision of ARMD were summarized. This article briefly introduces the diagnosis and treatment strategies and precautions of hip arthroplasty due to ARMD, in order to provide reference for such patients in clinical practice.

OBJECTIVETo sum up the clinical experience of liver transplantation.

METHODA retrospective study was made in 11 patients receiving living donor liver transplantation (LDLT)/and 14 patients having orthotopic liver transplantation (OLT), including one time operation of reduced size liver retransplantation and one time operation of cadaveric liver retransplantation.

RESULTSThe voluntary donors were a sister and 10 mothers of recipients. The location of graft included 3 patients of segment II, III, part of IV (not including intermediate hepatic veins), 6 patients of segment II, III, IV (including intermediate hepatic veins), and 2 patients of V, VI, VII, VIII (not including intermediate hepatic veins). The weight range of graft was 270 - 620 g. Twenty-four recipients achieved a long-term survival and retained normal liver function during the follow-up. Only 1 patient died from serious rejection on the 72nd day postoperatively. Ten patients with hepatitis B cirrhosis were treated with lamivudine and anti-HBVIg, and HBV-DNA in serum was negative during the follow-up for 4 approximately 21 months. Copperoxidase, ceruloplasmin and main indexes of liver function became normal in all patients with Wilson's Disease. Postoperative complications included abdominal hemorrhage (2 patients), acute respiratory distress syndrome (5), acute rejection (4), and acute renal function failure (2).

CONCLUSIONSThe wise solution to improve the result of liver transplantation and optimize liver resources is the "multimodal approach", by which all kinds of techniques for liver transplantation including CLT, LDLT and RSLT should well developed.

OBJECTIVETo investigate a safe method for correcting the secondary deformity after reduction mammaplasty.

METHODSA periareolar incision or original incision was done and the wedge-shaped glandular tissues were removed inferior-laterally in 11 patients.

RESULTS10 cases obtained the satisfactory results. One patient underwent the third operation 6 months after because of the obvious scar, and the result was yet unsatisfactory 1 year later.

CONCLUSIONSNo matter which pedicle was used in the first reduction mammaplasty, a periareolar incision or original incision with wedge-shaped glandular tissue resection is a safe method for repeated reduction mammaplasty.

Electrode array misplacement is a rare complication of cochlear implant. This article reports an 11-year-old boy who was mistakenly implanted the cochlear electrode array into the superior semicircular canal during the initial cochlear implant. After the diagnosis was confirmed, he underwent a second cochlear implant and the electrode array were successfully implanted into the cochlea. This article conducted a systematic review of the literature on electrode array misplacement, and the causes of electrode array misplacement were analyzed from different implantation position.

A 41-year-old woman with liver cirrhosis had recurrent portal hypertension and bleeding from esophageal varices due to complete occlusion of a previously inserted transjugular intrahepatic portosystemic shunt stent. Because recanalization of the stent by the transjugular approach was unsuccessful, ultrasound-guided entry to the splenic vein and portal vein was used. After catheter-directed intrathrombus thrombolysis, successful opening of the stent was achieved and a stent was placed. We herein report a rare case in which thrombolysis and recanalization of a TIPS stent were performed via a percutaneous transhepatic approach.

OBJECTIVE: To construct and evaluate nomogram prediction model for periprosthetic fractures in patients undergoing total hip arthroplasty (THA). METHODS: A total of 538 patients who underwent THA from April 2013 to February 2019 were selected as the research subjects, including 318 males and 220 females, aged 40 to 60 years old with an average age of (50.79±6.37) years old. All patients with THA were divided into non-fracture group (506 patients) and fracture group (32 pathents) according to the 3-year follow-up results. Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analyses were performed to analyze the influencing factors of postoperative periprosthetic fractures in patients with THA. A nomogram prediction model for periprosthetic fractures in patients undergoing THA was constructed, and the validity and discrimination of the prediction model were evaluated. RESULTS: The proportion of patients with osteoporosis, trauma history, and hip revision in the fracture group were higher than those in the non-fracture group(P<0.05), and the proportion of bone cement prosthesis was lower than that in the non-fracture group(P<0.05). The osteoporosis status[OR=4.177, 95%CI(1.815, 9.617), P<0.05], trauma history[OR=7.481, 95%CI(3.104, 18.031), P<0.05], and hip revision[OR=11.371, 95%CI(3.220, 40.153, P<0.05] were independent risk factors for postoperative periprosthetic fractures in patients undergoing THA, cemented prosthesis [OR=0.067, 95%CI(0.019, 0.236), P<0.05] was an independent protective factor for postoperative periprosthetic fractures in patients undergoing THA(P<0.05). Hosmer-Lemeshow goodness of fit test showed that χ²=7.864, P=0.325;the area under the curve (AUC) for periprosthetic fractures in patients undergoing THA was 0.892 with a sensitivity of 87.5% and a specificity of 77.7% by receiver operating characteristic(ROC) curve. CONCLUSION The nomogram prediction model for periprosthetic fractures after THA constructed in this study has good discrimination, which is beneficial to clinical prediction of periprosthetic fractures in patients undergoing THA, and facilitates individualized fracture prevention.

We report the case of a polyethylene tibial post fracture in a 72-year-old woman 14 months after a Scorpio posterior-stabilized (PS) total knee arthroplasty. The polyethylene wear was found around the fracture site of the post, especially over the anterior aspect of the post base. The failure mechanism of the post fracture in the present case was anterior impingement with excessive wear over the base of the anterior aspect of the tibial post, which became a stress-riser of post and cam articulation. This is the first report of a polyethylene tibial post fracture of a Scorpio PS prosthesis.

Laser keratomileusis and excimer laser photorefractive keratectomy in situ are widely used therapies for treating myopia. The corrections of refractive error by glasses or contact lens result in a relatively equal refractive correction on both eyes. However, refractive surgery on a single eye can cause a focus disparity between both eyes and may result in the impairment of fusion leading to strabismus. This article aims to report a case where diplopia and esotropia occurred 1 month after laser keratomileusis (LASIK) in situ for the correction of myopia.
