OBJECTIVE:
To provide anantomical basis for the endoscope-assisted partial superficial parotidectomy via retroauricular hairline approach (EASPRHA) and assess its feasibility and safety.
METHOD:
The surgical anatomy of retroauricular hairline region and parotid gland region were observed in 15 fresh human cadavers (30 halves). The EASPRHA was performed on 5 human cadavers (10 halves). After the procedure, the related vascular and neural structures were evaluated.
RESULT:
The retroauricular hairline region extends between superficial musculoaponeurotic system and superficial cervical fascia. On the superficial surface of the upper sternocleidomastoid lie the lesser occipital nerve, the great auricular nerve and the external jugular vein. The bifurcation of great auricular nerve is(22.85 ± 2.01) mm from the bottom of earlobe. The parotid gland region extends between parotidomassteric fascia and parotid gland parenchyma. The facial nerve emerging from the stylomastoid foramen runs across the superficial surface of base of styloid process, passes through the interspace between cartilage of external acoustic meatus and posterior belly of digastric muscle, and enters the parotid gland. The bifurcation of facial nerve trunk is (19.10 ± 3.10)mm from the mastoidale and (39.49 ± 5.78) mm from the mandibular angle. Above the posterior belly of digastric muscle, the posterior auricular artery arises from the posterior wall of the external carotid artery with its main stem running over the superficial surface of facial nerve trunk. In all endoscope-assisted operations, the partial superficial parotidectomy was successful without the need for an additional incision. No major neurovascular damage wasobserved.
CONCLUSION
A thorough knowledge of the surgical anatomy of retroauricular hairline region and parotid gland region is an essential requirement in performing the safe and feasible EASPRHA.

BACKGROUND:The type AO-C1 thoracolumbar acute spine injury is a kind of high-energy instable injury, can cause thoracolumbar fracture-dislocation, and mainly associated with spinal nerve injury. Generaly, al needs to posterior open reduction, decompression, bone graft fusion and multiple-segmental internal fixation of pedicle screw rod system, which causes excessive loss of spinal movement segment and a large number of application of internal fixators. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the treatment effect of posterior pedicle screw mono-segmental internal fixation for treatment of the type AO-C1 thoracolumbar vertebrae fracture-dislocations. METHODS:From January 2008 to December 2013, 17 cases of type AO-C1 thoracolumbar fracture-dislocation were folowed up. Al patients were treated with one-stage posterior open reduction and pedicle screw-rod fixation. Of them, eight cases received four screws and two rods for single-segment fixation in upper and lower vertebrae adjacent to intervertebral space after dislocation (4-screw 2-rod group). Nine cases received eight screws and two rods for multiple-segment fixation in the upper and lower vertebrae adjacent to intervertebral space after dislocation (8-screw 2-rod group). Operative time and intraoperative blood loss were compared between the two groups. The Cobb’s angle was measured on lateral X-ray film of two groups preoperatively and 1 week postoperatively and during the final folow-up. The neurological function was evaluated by Frankel classification. The visual analogue scale was adopted to assess the degree of low back pain. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Patients were folowed up for 1 to 5 years. Significant differences were detected in the operative time between the two groups, and operative time was better in the 4-screw 2-rod group than in the 8-screw 2-rod group (P < 0.05). No significant difference was found in intraoperative blood loss between the two groups. The deformity of fracture-dislocation had been corrected, and the pain of low back had significantly relieved in al patients after fixation. According to Frankel classification, two cases at Grade A were improved to Grade E, but eight cases at Grade A got no improvement after treatment. Two cases at Grade B were also improved to Grade E at the final folow-up. Significant differences in Cobb’s angle and visual analogue scale were detectable at 1 week postoperatively and during final folow-up as compared with preoperatively (P < 0.05), but no significant difference was visible between final folow-up and 1 week postoperatively. No significant difference in Cobb’s angle and visual analogue scale was observed between the 4-screw 2-rod group and 8-screw 2-rod group. Results indicate that there was no significant difference in the clinical efficacy between 4-screw 2-rod single-segment and 8-screw 2-rod multiple-segment fixation for treating type C1 thoracolumbar vertebrae fracture-dislocation. Therefore, AO-C1 thoracolumbar vertebrae fracture-dislocation could be treated with 4-screw 2-rod single-segment reduction fixation.
