Objective To explore the relationship between the size and location of the aneurysm after subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) and its clinical classification. Methods A retrospective study was performed in patients with aSAH from January 1, 2008 to December 31, 2014. The relevant clinical data were collected including age, gender, aneurysm size, location, and Hunt-Hess (H-H) classification. The aneurysms were classified by size (A group d<5.00 mm, B group 5.00 mm≤d<10.00 mm, C group d≥10.00 mm), location and H-H classification according to the results of CT, digital subtrac?tion angiography (DSA), and magnetic resonance angiography (MRA). The relationship between size, position of aneurysm and H-H classification was observed and analyzed. Results There were 750 cases included in this study, with average age (56.14 ± 11.88), male 292 and female 458. The total number of aneurysms was 903, and the number of multiple aneurysms was 91 (12.13%). There was one case with multiple aneurysms that can be included in A, B and C groups. There were two cases with multiple aneurysms that can be included in A and B groups, two cases can be included in A and C groups, and three cases can be included in B and C groups. The number of aneurysms and the ratios of groups A, B and C were 20(3.9%), 12 (3.8%), 5 (7.5%), 70 (13.6%), 39 (12.2%), 10(14.9%), 2 (0.4%), 4 (1.3%), 2 (3.0%), 165 (32.0%), 94 (29.4%), 6 (9.0%), 130 (25.2%), 90 (28.1%), 6 (9.0%), 17 (3.3%), 11 (3.4%) and 2 (3.0%) for the location in the anterior cerebral artery, the middle cerebral artery, the posterior cerebral artery, the internal carotid artery, the anterior communicating artery, the posterior communicating artery, and the vertebral basilar artery, respectively. The number of aneurysms and the ratios of H-H classificationⅠ,Ⅱ,Ⅲ,ⅣandⅤin groups A, B and C were 48 (9.3%), 45 (14.1%), 12 (17.9%), 228 (44.2%), 150 (46.9%), 14 (20.9%), 68 (13.2%), 54 (16.9%), 30 (44.8%), 142 (27.5%), 43 (13.4%), 9 (13.4%), 30 (5.8%), 28 (8.8%) and 2 (3.0%). There was a negative correlation between the size of aneurysm and the H-H grade (rs=-0.075, P=0.024). Conclusion The anterior communicating artery and posterior communicating artery are high-risk areas for smaller aneurysms. The internal ca?rotid artery is high-risk areas for larger aneurysms. The size of aneurysm is negatively correlated with H-H classification.

ObjectiveTo analyze and compare the difference and prognosis between vascular embolization and craniotomy occlusion in patients suffering from aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) with Hunt-Hess levelⅢ-Ⅳ, and acute postoperative hydrocephalus.Methods A retrospective study was conducted on 767 patients who had undergone vascular embolization (vascular embolization group,n = 403) or craniotomy occlusion operation (craniotomy occlusion operation group,n = 364), and the patients with postoperative acute hydrocephalus were screened. The clinical data of patients of both groups was analyzed. By judging short-term prognosis in patients with hydrocephalus with Glasgow outcome scale (GOS) score estimated at discharge, the advantages and disadvantages of two surgical procedures were compared.Results The number of cases with postoperative hydrocephalus in vascular embolization group was 56 (13.90%), while that in craniotomy occlusion group was 33 (9.07%). The difference between the two groups of incidence of hydrocephalus was statistically significant (χ2= 4.350,P = 0.037 ). In 767 patients with aSAH, the incidence of hydrocephalus among the patients after the hematoma removal operation was significantly lower than that of patients without hematoma removal [3.07% (11/358) vs. 19.07% (78/409),χ2 = 47.635,P = 0.000]. The incidence of hydrocephalus among the patients after ventricular drainage was significantly lower than that of patients without the drainage [2.77% (19/685) vs. 85.37% (70/82),χ2 = 487.032,P = 0.000]. In 403 cases of vascular embolization group, the incidence of hydrocephalus in the patients after the hematoma removal operation was lower than that of patients without it [8.06% (5/62) vs. 14.96% (51/341),χ2 = 2.082,P = 0.168]. The incidence of hydrocephalus in the patients after the ventricular drainage was lower than that of patients without drainage [2.59% (9/347) vs. 83.93% (47/56),χ2 = 266.599,P = 0.000]. In 364 cases of craniotomy occlusion operation group, the incidence of hydrocephalus in the patients after hematoma removal operation was significantly lower than that of patients did not receive [2.03% (6/296) vs. 39.71% (27/68),χ2 = 95.226,P = 0.000]. The incidence of hydrocephalus among the patients after the ventricular drainage was significantly lower than that of patients without drainage [2.96% (10/338) vs. 88.46% (23/26),χ2 = 203.852,P = 0.000]. The difference in incidence of hydrocephalus between the patients who had hematoma removal surgery between vascular embolization group and craniotomy occlusion operation group was statistically significant [8.06% (5/62) vs. 2.03% (6/296),χ2 = 4.411,P = 0.027], while no statistically difference was present in ventricular drainage patients [2.59% (9/347) vs. 2.96% (10/338),χ2 = 0.085,P = 0.819]. There were 23 patients (41.07%) with good outcome (GOS score 4-5), while 33 (58.93%) with poor outcome (GOS score 1-3) in 56 patients undergone vascular embolization operation. Good result (GOS score 4-5) was shown in 21 (63.64%) and 12 (36.36%) with poor outcome (GOS score 1-3) among 33 patients with hydrocephalus after craniotomy occlusion operation, and the difference was statistically significant (χ2 = 4.230,P = 0.039).Conclusions Hematoma is one of the main factor contributing to the differences in the incidence of postoperative hydrocephalus of Hunt-Hess gradeⅢ-Ⅳ patients either receiving vascular embolization or craniotomy occlusion operation. Lateral ventricle drainage may not be the factor that contributes to the difference in incidence of hydrocephalus formation between the vascular embolization and craniotomy occlusion operation groups in Hunt-Hess levelⅢ-Ⅳ patients. The short term prognosis in the craniotomy occlusion operation group is superior to that of endovascular intervention embolization group.

Aneurysmal subarachnoid hemorrhage (aSAH) isa cerebrovascular event with serious health consequences and is characterized by a high incidence,high morbidity,high mortality and high recurrence rate.As global population aging intensifies,the prognosis of aSAH among the elderly has become a focus for researchers in various specialties.Consequently,the identification of risk factors for the prognosis of aSAH in the elderly carries enormous importance.In this article,we review the recent advances in factors and the genetics related to the prognosis of aSAHin elderly patients.

Objective To analyze the risk factors of lower limb deep vein thrombosis(DVT)after the closed Pilon fracture surgery,and to build a nomograph prediction model.Methods A total of 182 patients with closed Pilon fracture who underwent surgical treatment in our hospital from June 2019 to June 2022 were retrospectively analyzed,according to the occurrence of postoperative DVT,the patients were divided into two groups:43 cases in DVT group and 139 cases in non-DVT group.Univariate and multivariate Logistic regression analysis was applied to screen the risk factors of lower limb DVT after closed Pilon fracture surgery;R software was applied to build a nomograph model for predicting lower limb DVT after closed Pilon fracture surgery,and receiver operating characteristic(ROC)and calibration curve were applied to verify the nomograph model.Results Logistic regression analysis showed that the history of diabetes mellitus,risk assessment of thrombosis as medium and high risk,and postoperative infection were independent risk factors for lower limb DVT after closed Pilon fracture surgery(P＜0.05).The area under the ROC curve was 0.716(95％CI:0.629-0.804).The slope of calibration curve was close to 1,and H-L goodness of fit test x2=2.556,P=0.635.Conclusion The history of diabetes,the result of thrombosis risk assessment as"medium-high risk",and the postoperative infection occurred at the surgical site are independent risk factors for lower limb DVT after closed Pilon fracture surgery.The nomogram prediction model constructed by integrating the above three independent risk factors can effectively predict lower limb DVT after closed Pilon fracture surgery,with high differentiation and consistency.

Objective To investigate the value of CT and MRI in the differential diagnosis of various subtypes malignant epithelial tumors of the ovary,to improve the understanding of imaging manifestations of ovarian cancer.Methods Fifty four cases with malignant epithelial tumors of the ovary confirmed by clinical operation and pathology were included in this study and preoperative imaging examinations were analyzed retrospectively.Results Thirty four cases were diagnosed as ovary cystadenoma,including 26 cases of serous cystadenoma (48%),8 cases of mucous cystadenoma (14%),10 cases of endometrioid adenocarcinoma (19%)and 10 cases of clear-cell carcinoma (19%).All the tumors appeared as unilocular or multilocular cystic-solid masses,however some differences existed among tumors in calcification in masses,size of solid nodules,locular appearance,with or without associated massive ascites, and adjacent structures involvement .Calcification occurred in 5 cases of cystadenocarcinoma,and no calcification was found in endometrioid adenocarcinoma or clear-cell carcinoma.The proportion of solid component in clear-cell carcinoma was lower,usually presenting as intralumimal nodular protuberance.Endometrioid adenocarcinoma was often associated with endometrial hyperplasia or endometrial carcinoma and was the most prone to peripheral invasion and adhesion.Conclusion The different subtypes of ovary malignant epithelium-derived tumor have different characteristics of multilocular,the size of cyst wall nodule or solid nodule and the calcification.Compare and analysis of these characteristics help us to make a more accurate preoperative diagnosis.

Objective To observe the effects of different surgical approaches on the complications and tumor markers of patients undergoing radical resection of esophageal cancer.Method A prospective study was conducted on 100 patients with esophageal cancer who underwent radical surgery in our hospital from October 2019 to October 2022.They were randomly divided into an observation group and a control group using a random number table method,with 50 patients in each group,he right thoracic approach was used in the observation group and the left thoracic approach was used in the control group.Perioperative indexes,inflammatory factors[Substance P(SP),hypersensitive C-reactive protein(hs-CRP),interleukin6(IL-6)],tumor markers[cytokeratin 19 fragment antigen(CYFRA21-1),squamous cell carcinoma antigen(SCC-Ag)and carbohydrate antigen 199(CA199)]and lung function of the two groups were compared before and after surgery Indicators[vital capacity(VC),forced vital capacity(FVC),and forced expiratory volume in the first second(FEV1)]and complication rate.Result The operating time,blood loss,indwelling time,hospitalization time,and number of lymph node dissection in the observation group were(247.65±27.33)minutes,(211.82±25.49)ml,(6.97±2.12)days,(16.11±3.81)days,and(19.67±5.21),respectively,which were higher than those in the control group[(217.63±23.69)minutes,(175.67±22.13)ml,(5.43±1.80)days,(12.68±3.24)days,(15.45±4.12)](P＜0.05).On average,there was a significant increase in SP,hs CRP,and IL-6 levels in both groups 3 days after surgery(P＜0.05).The levels of SP,hs CRP,and IL-6 in the observation group were(273.96±35.45)ng/L,(11.35±2.12)mg/L,and(8.19±1.67)p.g/ml,respectively,which were lower than the control group[(298.33±38.42)ng/L,(14.29±2.68)mg/L,(10.35±1.82)pg/ml](P＜0.05);One month after surgery,there was a significant decrease in CYFRA21-1,SCC-Ag,and CA199 in both groups(P＜0.05),and in the observation group,the data of CYFRA21-1,SCC-Ag,and CA199 were(2.59±0.37)μg/L,(45.62±6.18)pg/L and(59.37±6.12)U/ml,respectively,which were lower than those in the control group[(3.12±0.43)μg/L,(60.27±7.35)pig/L,(63.28±6.49)U/ml](P＜0.05);One month after surgery,there was a significant decrease in VC,FVC,and FEV1 in both groups(P＜0.05).However,the VC,FVC,and FEV1 in the observation group were(67.21±8.69)％,(70.33±9.41)％,and(72.88±10.12)％,respectively,which were higher than those in the control group[(54.35±8.27)％,(61.65±8.79)％,(65.37±9.24)％](P＜0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of complications between the two groups(P＞0.05).Conclusion Both approaches can effectively treat esophageal cancer.Among them,the right chest approach can significantly improve the effect of lymph node dissection,inhibit inflammatory reactions,reduce tumor marker levels,and have less impact on lung function,without significantly increasing the risk of complications.However,the surgical time,bleeding volume,and postoperative recovery time are relatively long.Therefore,a suitable approach should be selected in clinical practice based on the patient's actual situation.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of quantitative analysis of optical signal in the near infrared fluorescence molecular navigation surgery for oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC).Methods:SCC9, HSC3 and epithelial cell lines (Leuk-1) were co-cultured with indocyanine green (ICG) for 6 hours in vitro in order to verify whether the quantitative analysis of near infrared optical signal could distinguish tumor cells from normal cells. A total of 16 BALB/c male mice (5-6 weeks, 20-25 g) were selected and fed in clean grade equipment and were equally divided into two groups. SCC9 and HSC3 cells were inoculated into the back of each mouse at a concentration of 1×10 6 cells/ml to establish a subcutaneous graft tumor model. The 5 mg/kg ICG was injected into the caudal vein to each of the tumor bearing mouse and the difference between OSCC and normal tissues was then analyzed by near infrared optical signal quantitative analysis (Paired t test). Ten patients with OSCC were enrolled in the Department of Stomatology of the First Affiliated Hospital of Bengbu Medical College from November 2019 to July 2020, including 6 patients with tongue squamous cell carcinoma and 4 patients with buccal squamous cell carcinoma.The patients were 6 males and 4 females and the range of age was from 46 to 71 years with an average age of 58.6 years. These patients were injected ICG (0.75 mg/kg) via the cubital vein at 6-8 h before surgery. Intraoperatively, the fluorescence intensities (FI) of near infrared signal were measured at tumor, peritumor tissues (2.0 cm beyond the tumor boundary) and normal tongue or buccal mucosa respectively. The signal background ratios (SBR) from the three site groups were assessed using one-way ANOVA followed by the Tukey post hoc test for multiple comparisons. Results:In vitro, the levels of near infrared FI in HSC3 and SCC9 groups were higher than that in Leuk-1group ( P<0.01). In vivo, the result showed that the SBR of OSCC and normal tissues was 8.67±0.35. Clinical studies showed that the intensity of tumor [(408.23±101.51) arbitrary units (AU)] was significantly higher than those of peritumoral [(253.12±64.89) AU] and normal tissues [(261.50±80.47) AU] respectively. The SBRs of near infrared FI of tumor and peritumoral tissues, tumor and normal tissues were 1.61±0.53 and 1.56±0.48 respectively, while that of peritumoral and normal tissues was 0.96±0.17. Conclusions:The quantitative analysis of near infrared optical signal could distinguish OSCC from normal cells and could locate the OSCC tissue intraoperatively. Optical signal quantification and ICG near infrared fluorescence molecular technology possessed the feasibility in primary OSCC resection.
