Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of primary debridement combined with external fixation and secondary sequential internal fixation in the treatment of Rüedi-Allg?wer Ⅱ Pilon fracture.Methods:The clinical data of 36 patients with Rüedi-Allg?wer Ⅱ Pilon fracture from January 2017 to December 2019 in the People′s Hospital of Quzhou City, Zhejiang Province were retrospectively analyzed. Among them, 16 patients were treated with primary debridement with calcaneal traction and secondary internal fixation (internal fixation group), and 20 patients were treated with primary debridement combined with external fixation and secondary sequential internal fixation (combined fixation group). The operative time, intraoperative blood loss, postoperative drainage volume, time of full weight bearing, fracture healing time, American Society of Foot and Ankle Surgery (AOFAS) posterior ankle foot function score, visual analogue score (VAS), reduction quality (Burwell-Charnley score) and incidence of complication were compared between 2 groups.Results:The patients were followed up for 6 to 18 (10.7 ± 2.8) months. The time of full weight bearing and fracture healing time in combined fixation group were significantly shorter than those in internal fixation group: (7.2 ± 1.9) weeks vs. (9.4 ± 2.1) weeks and (3.4 ± 0.8) months vs. (4.1 ± 1.2) months, and there were statistical differences ( P<0.05 or <0.01); there were no statistical differences in operative time, intraoperative blood loss and postoperative drainage volume between 2 groups ( P>0.05). There was no statistical difference in AOFAS posterior ankle foot function score 1 month after surgery between 2 groups ( P>0.05); the AOFAS posterior ankle foot function score 3 and 6 month after surgery in combined fixation group was significantly higher than that in internal fixation group: (86.4 ± 1.7) scores vs. (75.7 ± 1.2) scores and (93.6 ± 2.2) scores vs. (82.1 ± 1.9) scores, and there was statistical difference ( P<0.05). There was no statistical difference in VAS between 2 groups ( P>0.05). There were no statistical differences in rate of reduction satisfaction and incidence of complication between 2 groups ( P>0.05). Conclusions:The primary debridement combined with external fixation and secondary sequential internal fixation for the treatment of Rüedi-Allg?wer Ⅱ Pilon fracture is conducive to the rapid recovery, which is worthy of extensive clinical promotion.

Objective To provide data for improving the treatment effect on intractable temporal lobe epilepsy by retrospectively analyzing the clinical data of a large number of patients.Methods Two hundred and thirty-five patients with intractable temporal lobe epilepsy,admitted to our hospital from January 2000 to December 2010,were chosen in our study; these patients had a follow up for over 6 months; their clinical data,including neural electrophysiology,imaging and histopathology,were retrospectively analyzed to compare the treatment efficacy of different types of patients at different time points of treatment.Results Neural electrophysiology showed unilateral epileptiform discharges in 167 patients,bilateral epileptiform discharges in 67 patients; further study showed that lateral dominance was noted in 38 and bilateral equalization in 29 patients of the 67 patients with bilateral epileptiform discharges.In the second year of operation,based on the Engel standard,patients with unilateral epileptiform discharges had significantly better effect than those with bilateral epileptiform discharges (P＜0.05).Imaging showed that hippocampal sclerosis had the highest percentage (41.5％,97/234),with highest postoperative satisfaction rate (Engel I was noted in 82 patients).Conclusion Patients with unilateral focal lesions and patients with hippocampal sclerosis have good surgical results.

Objective: To investigate the clinicopathological and radiological features of benign fibro-osseous lesion (BFOL). Methods: Sixty-five cases of craniofacial BFOL, eight cases of peripheral ossifying fibroma (POF) and one case of low-grade central osteosarcoma diagnosed at Sichuan Provincial People′s Hospital between January 2010 and March 2019 were collected. The clinicopathologic features, hematoxylin-eosin and immunohistochemical (IHC) staining and radiographic features were analyzed. MDM2 gene amplification was detected by FISH in difficult borderline cases. Results: This cohort of BFOLs included 50 cases of fibrous dysplasia (FD), 12 cases of ossifying fibroma (OF), and three cases of juvenile psammomatoid ossifying fibroma (JPOF). The average ages of patients with FD,OF and JPOF were 31.7, 39.2 and 26.0 years respectively. The male to female ratio was 1.0∶1.8.The average age of POF was 47.0 years, with male to female ratio of 1∶7. Patient of low-grade central osteosarcoma was a 48-year-old man. Twenty-seven cases of FD were located in the jaw, and 23 cases were in other craniofacial bones. Nine cases of OF were located in the jaw, and three cases were in the nasal cavity. Two cases of JPOF were in the nasal sinus, and one was in the jaw. All POF were located in the gingiva, and low-grade central osteosarcoma was located in the mandible. The imaging features of FD were luffa-like or ground-glass like signal shadows with poorly defined borders with expansion. OF had clear borders or sclerosing margins. Both JOF and low-grade central osteosarcoma were expansile intraosseously and with focally invasive nodular masses with ground-glass like signal shadows; and POF showed soft tissue mass with bone formation. Histological features of BFOLs showed mixed fibrous and irregular osteoid lesions. FD had no clear relationship with the host bone and no osteoblasts surrounded the bone trabeculae. Osteoblasts rimming was found in OF, and the boundaries of the host bone were clear. JPOF and low-grade central osteosarcoma infiltrated the host bone focally, and the latter showed mild cellular atypia. MDM2 amplification was detected in low-grade central osteosarcoma. Conclusions BFOLs are a group of fibro-osseous lesions with similar morphology in the head and neck and face, but their clinical features and prognosis are different; and their imaging and histological characteristics are also slightly different. Attentions should be given to the combination of clinical, imaging and pathologic features of BFOLs, especially the differential diagnosis between BFOLs and low-grade central osteosarcoma. Molecular detection could be used to assist the diagnosis in difficult cases.
