Objective The patients with metastatic spinal tumors often suffered from severe back pain and spinal cord compression directly caused by tumor tissue or severe spine kyphosis.In order to treat or prevent spinal cord paralysis,decompression and stabilization should be performed on the patients with spinal pain and /or severe spinal cord compression.Methods From July1998through July2001,62patients(27women and35men)with metastatic spinal tumors had been treated at our department.Of 62patients,the thoracic vertebrae were involved in37cases,lumbar vertebrae in19and cervical vertebrae in6.Among43of 62patients who pre sented with neurological dysfunction,24patients were incompletely para plegic and the others were completely paraplegic.The fol low-up ranged from8to36months.Results Pain relief was ob-tained in58of 62patients(94%),and good neurological recovery was obtained in33of the43patients.Improved bowel and bladder function was obtained in12of 25patients who presented with bowel and blad der dysfunction.After decompression,neurological function,evaluated as Frankel grade E or D,was ob-tained in5patients whose neurological function had been evaluated as Frankel grade A or B,and other9pa-tients ex perienced a neurological recovery from Frankel grade A or B to C or D.Conclusion The time developing from neurological dysfunction to complete para plegia is the most important prognostic factor.Poor prognosis is often inevitable when complete paraplegia appeared less than48hours.Complete loss of bowel and bladder function is also a factor for poor prognosis.Decompression should be performed immedi -ately if the patient is presented with neurological dysfunction.Spinal metastasis of thyroid or breast cancer has a rela tive good prognosis.However,metastasis of lung or liver cancer is associated with a short-term survival.Neu rological function of patients with spinal metastasis at thoracic region is more difficult to recover.Com-mon motor and sensory functions are often improved earlier than bowel and bladder function.Thorough re-section of metastatic tumor and stable in ternal fixation should be performed when single vertebra is involved.Conservative tumor resection,decompression and posterior internal fixation should be performed when two or more seg ments are involved in order to alleviate paraplegia,improve spinal stability and the quality.[

Objective To explore the complications of the total elbow arthroplasty after the resection of the peri-elbow tumor. Methods Between June 1998 and June 2002, eight patients underwent total elbow arthroplasty after resection of tumors, which involved 7 males and 1 female (mean age, 42.6 years; range, 22-63 years). The patients included 1 metastasis, 1 GCT, 2 MFH, 1 osteosarcoma, 1 lymphoma, 1 desmoid fibroma, and 1 synovial sarcoma. The tumors located 3 in distal humerus, and 5 in proximal ulna. For those of the distal humerus, after the resection of the tumors, the origins and the insertions of the musculi flexors, extensor, pronators and supinators were repaired as far as possible. The application of the prothesis was relatively simple, the prosthetic stem of the distal humerus was cemented, the intercondylar notch was sawn off, but both the lateral and medial epicondyles were kept, the prothesis impacted in the notch; While for those tumors located on the proximal ulna, the stem was spiraled in the intramedullary cavity, Patients were evaluated according to the Mayo Elbow Performance Score. Results All the patients were followed up at least one year or to death (mean duration, 2.5 years). Pain scores decreased from a mean of 3.6 to 2.0. Mean elbow motion from extention to flexision arc improved from 29? to 73? (range, 55?-105?). Seven cases were excellent or good (87.5%), and only one was poor (12.5%). There were none of the complications, such as infection, incision non-union and nerve injury. All patients without local recurrence as well. The X-ray didn't reveal any sign of loosening or breakage for the artificial elbow joint. Conclusion Total elbow arthroplasty after resection of tumors can decrease the pain and improve the function substantially. For metastatic tumors, this technique can be also used to alleviate symptom if there is no other good option.

Objective To discuss the techniques of tumor resection, pelvic reconstruction and postoperative management by reviewing the patients with malignant pelvic tumors in recent years. Methods 76 patients with primary malignant pelvic tumors were treated operatively between July 1997 and July 2003. The series comprised 47 males and 29 females. 31 cases were diagnosed as chondrosarcoma, 15 as Ewing sarcoma, 7 as osteosarcoma, 3 as lymphoma, 3 as malignant fibrohistiocytoma (MFH), 1 as hemangiopericytoma, 2 as myeloma, 13 as giant cell tumor(GCT). According to Enneking's division, the most common region of the primary pelvic tumor involved was region Ⅱ (51 cases), followed by region Ⅰ (16 cases) and region Ⅲ (9 cases). 16 cases were reconstructed with threaded pins and cement after resection of the ilium. 9 patients had local resection of pubis and ischium. 21 patients had hemipelvectomy. Among 30 patients with periacetabular tumors, 8 were reconstructed with hemipelvic prosthesis, 7 with saddle prosthesis, 6 with replantation of cauterized tumor bone and total hip arthroplasty, 9 with cemented total hip replacement after curettage of lesion. Results After 16 months to 6 years follow-up, among the 21 patients with hemipelvectomy, 4 patients had local relapse because the sacrum invaded by the tumors. 7 of 25 patients with lesions in regionⅠ or region Ⅲ had local relapse postoperatively due to the marginal incision to the acetabula. Among the 21 patients who had tumor resection and reconstruction in region Ⅱ, 4 had local relapse, 3 of which reconstructed with cauterized hemipelvis. As for functional recovery, all of the 25 patients with lesions in region Ⅰand region Ⅲcould walk postoperatively without assistance of a cane. 21 patients with acetabular reconstruction after resection of lesions in region Ⅱ could sit and stand normally and walked with a cane, some of them even had normal gait. Conclusion The major principle of treatment for primary pelvic tumor is that en bloc resection, only then the functional reconstruction of pelvic ring can be considered. Operators should be acquainted with advantages and shortcomings of different reconstructive methods of acetabulum to prevent the complications.

[Objective]To measure adult normal femur specimen in order to obtain accurate femoral resection and match the distal femoral in total knee arthroplasty.[Method](1)Forty-seven adult normal femur specimens of central Chinese were used for taking digital pictures in both anteroposterior and medialateral position.Five angles were measured through drawing lines of fixed point.(2)The exact position of the entry point was defined by the two wires on the specimens.[Result](1)The five angles reflect distal femoral anatomy features on the frontal plane and sagittal plane.(2)The mean value of distance from the entry point to the center of the intercondylar notch was 6.21 mm and the distance from the entry point to the anterior margin of the femoral posterior cruciate ligament(PCL) insertion is found to be 6.7 mm.[Conclusion](1)The distal one-third of femora was found to be outward bowing on frontal plane and forward bowing on Sagittal plane.Especially,the forward bowing is more remarkable than Outward bowing.So,when the position of intramedullary guide stick is decided by distal femoral anatomy,the axis alignments on frontal and Sagittal planes are both important.(2)During total knee afthroplasty the exact position of entry point may be defined by the Center of the intefcondylar notch and femoral PCL insertion.
9.Pediatric Risk of Mortality Ⅲ Score and Pediatric Critical Illness Score
Journal of Applied Clinical Pediatrics 1992;0(06):-
The pediatric risk of mortality Ⅲ(PRISM Ⅲ) score and pediatric critical illness score(PCIS) are physiology-based scores for assessing the severity of illness and mortality risk in pediatric patients.The PRISM Ⅲscore was revised version of the PRISM and was first developed in 1996.It includes 17 physiologic variables subdivided into 26 ranges.It had been validated by numerous studies worldwide and is the most widely known and used at pediatrics intensive care unit(PICU).The PCIS was first developed in 1995 in China,which included 10 physiologic variables.It had been validated by numerous studies nationwide and was simple,effective and suitable to Chinese situations.The scoring systems also can be used for quality assessments,grading the severity of illness in clinical study,and(stu)-dies of ICU resource utilization and management.There were no such study for validating the PRISM Ⅲ at present,comparing the performance of the PRISM Ⅲ score and the PCIS in China.
