Objective To report the therapeutic results of Hybrid external fixator in treatment of open metaphyseal fractures of the tibia.Methods From March 2000 to July 2004,19 cases of proximal tibial meta- physeal fractures and six cases of Pilon fractures were treated with Hybrid external fixators.By Gustilo classification, eight cases were of typeⅡ,10 typeⅢA,five typeⅢB and two typeⅢC.The wounds were closed directly after thorough debridement in 21 cases,and closed by pedicled flap transposition or free flap transplantation in four. Fasciotomy was performed in three.Closed indirect reduction of the fractures was done in 11 cases,while open reduction was carried out through an extended wound or a limited incision in 14.Anatomical reduction was done for the articular fractures,if any,and Hybrid external fixators were employed to stabilize fractures in all the cases in this series.Results All the patients had a mean follow-up of 15.7 months (ranging from 9 to 26 months) which re- vealed bone union of the fracture in all cases with a mean healing time of 8.8 months.Two patients had their external fixators replaced with plates and iliac bone graft to get fracture union.The fixators were removed 2.9 to 21 months (mean,9.4 months) after operation.Except for two cases of secondary healing,all the wounds healed primarily without serious complication,such as infection.The final follow-up revealed a knee motion range of more than 90?in 15 cases,less than 70?in four,whose knee motion range was improved to more than 90?after knee release performed one year later.In all the six cases of Pilon fractures,the ankle joint recovered normal range of motion.Traumatic arthritis occurred in two cases of Piion fracture 11 months after operation.Evaluation by Rasmussen's functional and radiological scoring system demonstrated excellent knee function in 13 cases,good in three,fair in two and poor in one,with a good to excellent rate of 84.2%.The ankle function was excellent in three cases,good in two and poor in one,with a good to excellent rate of 83.3%.Conclusions In treatment of open tibial metaphyseal fractures, the Hybrid external fixator can well maintain the stability of the fragments with a low incidence of soft tissue com- plications and insignificant interference with the knee motion.However the bone healing time can be prolonged with a definite rate of nonunion.

Objective To investigate the influence of hepatectomy combined with splenectomy on curative effect of primary hepatocellular carcinoma patients associated with hypersplenism.Methods Twenty three cases of primary hepatocellular carcinoma associated with hypersplenism were analyzed retrospectively and divided into hepatectomy combined with splenectomy group (n=10) and hepatectomy combined with ligation of splenic artery (n=13). Peripheral blood samples were collected 1 week before operation and 3 monthes after operation respectively. The levels of CD4, CD8, CD16, CD4/CD8, WBC and PLT in the blood were detected. Survival rate between the two groups was compared. Results There were not significant differences in the expressional levels of CD4, CD8, CD16, CD4/CD8,WBC and PLT before operation, bleeding quantity during the operation and rate of severe complications after operation in the two groups. The expressional levels of CD4, CD16, CD4/CD8, WBC and PLT of hepatectomy combined with splenectomy group were much higher in 3 months after operation than those in 1 week before operation and in hepatectomy combined with ligation of splenic artery group (P

Retroperitoneal laparoscopic live donor nephrectomy offers an intrinsic advantage over conventional transperitoneal laparoscopic nephrectomy because of the potentially lower risk for early and late donor intraperitoneal complications. Herein we presented our experience performing retroperitoneal laparoscopic live donor nephrectomy in 105 donors. All donor nephrectomy was successful. There were no donor deaths and no conversion to open surgery. Mean operation time was 112 min (range, 70-200 min). Intraoperative blood loss was 10-150 mL with an average of 30 mL. Warm ischemia time was 1.3 to 6 min with an average of 3.1 min. Postoperative retroperitoneal hematoma occurred in only one case and there were no other surgical complications. Donors were discharged from the hospital 5 to 10 days postoperation. Average postoperative hospital stay was 6.4 days. One graft was removed due to acute rejection. Delayed graft function occurred in two recipients but renal function returned to normal within four weeks. The other recipients had normal renal function in two weeks except three recipients in four weeks. We believe that retroperitoneal laparoscopic live donor nephrectomy is safe, reliable, and less invasive.

Objective To investigate the importance of plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance in the development of quinolone resistance in clinical isolates of gram-negative bacteria.Methods A total of 541 consecutive clinical isolates of gram-negative ba- cilli resistant or intermediate to ciprofloxacin were screened for the qnrA gene by PCR.Conjugation experiments were carried out with azide-resistant E.coli J53 as a recipient.The aac(6')-Ib-cr gene was detected.The mutations in the quinolone-resist- ance-determining region (QRDR) of the gyrA and parC genes were identified in qnrA positive strains.Results qnrA was identi- fied in 7 of the 541 strains.Among the qnrA positive strains,5 were Enterobacter cloacae.No qnrA was detected in nonfer- menters.Quinolone resistance was transferred in 4 of 7 qnrA positive strains.Transconjugants had 12-to 125-fold increases in MIC of ciprofloxacin relative to that of the recipient.Seven strains contained qnrA with a nucleotide sequence identical to that originally reported.Two transconjugants with higher ciprofloxacin MICs contained aac(6')-Ib-cr gene.Mutations occurred in the QRDR of the gyrA and parC genes in 5 PCR-positive clinical strains.Conclusions Transferable plasmid-mediated quinolone resistance associated with qnrA is highly prevalent in clinical strains of Enterobacter spp.aac(6')-Ib-cr gene and mutations in the quinolone targets may co-exist with qnrA,which may contribute to the further increase of resistance to quinolones.
