砄bjective:To study the effects of superlong pedicled latissimus dorsi muscle transplantation (SPLDMT) in the treatment of facial paralysis.Method: 16 cases of unilateral long standing facial paralysis were treated with SPLDMT in 1991～1998;follow up was conducted and the effects were analysed. Results:After operation satisfied movement recovery of the facial muscles was observed in 12 and improvenent in 3 of the 16 patients,no change was found in only 1 case. Conclusion: SPLDMT is effective in the treatment of unilateral long standing facial paralysis.

Objective:To evaluate functional recovery of nerve and muscle after end-to-side neurorrhaphy.Methods:10 SD rats were randomly and evenly devided into group A and group B.Right common peroneal nerve was amputated in all the rats.Then the distal stump was sutured to the ipsilateral tibial nerve by the end-to-side way through a epineurial window in group A. The right common peroneal nerve was severed in group B as denervated control.After 1.5 months all the rats were subjected to walking track analysis,histological and ultrastructure observation.Results:In group A peroneal nerve index (PFI) achieved -41.634,density of collateral axons 51.437?12.041/1 000 ?m 2,synapsin (SYP) 439?120.5.In group B PFI was -100,SYP 0. In normal control PFI was 0, density of collateral axons 18.847?1.078/1 000 ?m 2,SYP 842?84.7.Conclusion:End-to-side neurorrhaphy may induce nerve sprout plenty of collateral axons.The axons can reach target muscle to reconstruct functional neuromuscular junction,and recover the function of the muscle in some degree.

Objectives: To study the treatment outcome of mucoepidermoid carcinoma(MEC).Methods:128 cases of MEC with definite pathologic diagnosis treated in our hospital during the past 15 years were investigated. The relationship between the effects of the therapy and the prognosis was analysed.Result:Treatment with surgical operation only was used in 99 cases,radiotherapy after operation was applied in 26 cases and follow-up was carried out in 76 cases. 5-year survival rate was 90.7%.5 patients who died within 5 years after operation were all with the diagnosis of MEC in clinical stage Ⅳand poor differentiaton.Conclusion:The local extensive excision for the well differentiated MEC,the radiotherapy after operation for poorly differentiated or that of clinical stage Ⅳ,especially in maxilla,may increase 5-year survival rate.Since there were cases of recurrences of MEC 13 years after surgical treatment,long-term follow-up is necessary.

Objective To investigate the causes and preventive measures for failure and complications of minimally invasive percutaneous nephrolithotomy (mPCNL). Methods From January 2005 to October 2008,totally 353 cases of mPNCL were performed in our hospital. Among the cases,30 patients experienced failure of the surgery or postoperative complications. The data of the 30 patients were analyzed retrospectively in this study. Results Of the 30 cases,puncture failure occurred in 5 patients,while 2 of them were converted to open surgery,and the other 3 were treated by a second puncture successfully; Zebra wire extrusion was found in 5 cases,who were then cured by re-puncture or a second operation; in 3 patients,the wire or PCN tube was moved into the renal vein (2 cases) or the colon (1 case) without causing bleeding or intestinal fistula,the cases were cured afterwards by a second operation; 3 patients developed hydrothorax and then was cured by chest drainage; postoperative arteriovenous fistula was detected in 2 patients,who were cured by interventional therapy; in 5 days after the operation,one patient developed massive hemorrhage from the PCN tube when driving cars,and then recovered by clipping the PCN tube and hemostasis; another patient showed hemorrhage and infection due to extraction of the PCN tube,and open surgery was carried out to cure this patient. Conclusions Failure of puncture and Zebra wire extrusion are most common causes of failure of mPCNL. Whereas,post-mPCNL complications is often caused by unskillful surgeons or noncompliant patients.

Objective:To evaluate the effect of iliac bone graft and radial forearm flap in the reconstrucion of maxilla.Methods:Maxilla defects were reconstructed using iliac bone graft and radial forearm flap in 4 patients.The effects were evaluated clinicaly.Results:In all the 4 cases,palatal defects resulted from maxillectomy were optimally reconstructed with non-vascularized iliac graft and radial forearm flap.The masticatory function of the upper jaw,intelligible speech,swallow and natural facial appearance were recovered.As a result,quality of life of the patients was improved.Conclusion:Iliac bone graft and radial forearm are feasible in the reconstruction of maxilla defects.

To evaluate the incidence of sub-clinical neck metastasis and its surgical treatment in patients with oral squamous cell carcinoma (OSCC) without clear evidences for lymph nodes metastasis, a total of 205 patients with OSCC in N0 and N1 stage(UICC 1987′s classification) were included in the study.Their clinical and histopathological files were retrospectively studied and patients were followed up after operation. Histopathological positive lymph nodes were found in 10.8%(13/120) of patients,and postoperative lymph nodes metastasis occurred in 16.5%(14/85) of patients without neck dissections.There were no significant differences between N0 and N1 groups.Neck recurrence occurred in 11.9%(5/42) of patients after functional neck dissections.The rate was higher in patients with bucal lesions.Patients undergoing radical neck dissections also had neck recurrence with an incidence of 6.4%.But most of them occurred on contralateral side. It suggested that subclinical metastasis of OSCC with clinically negative neck lymph nodes could not be neglected.Functional neck dissection should include the lymph nodes of level Ⅲ,especially for cancers located on bucca mucosa and tongue.Bilateral neck dissection is necessary for large primary lesions spreading to the contralateral side.

[Objective]To establish 3D finite element model of adolescent idiopathic scoliosis.Stress analysis on established 3D finite element model was done to compare the specific quantity of stress among every vertebra.[Method]Under the help of related softwares,3D finite element model was established from CT scan of a adolescent idiopathic scoliosi.A number of points were chosen on the model.Stress analysis was done in normal loading.[Result]Vertebral wedging and stress distribution showed significant regularity.The result was the largest in the apical region,and showed a gradual decrease to the end vertebral.[Conclusion]Relative biomechanical and clinical analysis can be easily conducted on 3D finite element model of scoliosis.It is possible to analyze diversity of stress on different conditions.

The latest domestic and foreign development of artificial vision technology is introduced in this paper. Its prospect and feasibility in China are mentioned too.

ObjectiveTo introduce the progressing history of DO technique,and report the characteristics of the home-made type MS-1 internal mandibular distracter, and the effects of application of it in animal experiment. Methods15 Mongrel dogs were subjected to be lengthened of the unilateral or bilateral mandibles using the home-made type MS-1 mandibular distracter, and the regular X-ray ex aminations were made. ResultsAbout (20±5)mm in length of the andible had been achieved by the DO (distraction of osteogenesis)technique using the device. The accuracy of the distracter on lengthening would be attained to 98 % of the expectancy. The mineralization of the new bone fulfilled the gap zone about 5 weeks after the distraction had been finished during the consolidation period. ConclusionThe MS-1 type internal mandibular lengthening device has its special advantages on ap plication of cranio-maxillofacial surgery with a great expectancy.
