Objective Cervical instability was mostly caused by trauma. However, degenerative cervical instability was diagnosed rarely according to the present criteria although cervical degeneration was common in aged people. The study was aimed at investigating the results of surgical treatment for degenerative cervical instability and to define the indications for surgical intervention. Methods From April 1998 to April 2001, anterior cervical fusion and plate fixation were applied in fifteen patients, there were 6 males and 9 females aged from 44 to 65 years with an average of 55.2 years. The patients showed roentgenographic instability of the cervical spine associating with cervical postural symptoms. Spondylotic cervical myelopathy were excluded from the group. The cervical postural symptoms were those presented or aggravated with flexion-extension or rotational movements of the cervical spine, such as neck-shoulder pain, cervical spondylotic radiculopathy symptoms, sympathetic or vertebral artery symptoms. The symptoms lasted from 18 months to 4 years before the index surgery, all patients had received more than one year conservative treatments, but no any improvement. Seven cases were fused with iliac autograft, in which three cases were on single intervertebral spaces, four cases on double spaces, and grooved bone graft was used in the patient of double space fusion. Intervertebral fusion cage (Titanium mesh) was used in 8 cases; allograft was used in 2 single space cases; grooved autograft was used in 6 double space cases. Excised vertebral body was used as autograft material. Results The patients were followed up from 8 months to 4 years with an average of 25 months. All patients were satisfactory for the surgical results in follow-up period. All symptoms were released in 12 cases, occasional neck pain was found in 3 cases, and there was no abnormality presented in clinical examination. Solid fusion was achieved in all of cases at follow-up, the fused segment was stable judging by dynamic roentgenogram. Conclusion Fusion of the unstable segments is an alternative procedure for degenerative cervical instability in case the cervical postural symptoms are consistent with the radiographic features. Since some degenerative instability of cervical spine may spontaneously achieve re-stabilization, the indication of surgical fusion must be strictly limited to avoid over-treatment.

AIM: Bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) as polyphenic morphogen can induce the formation of bone and cartilage. This study investigates the effect of BMP on articular cartilage regeneration after periosteal graft. METHODS: Experiments were performed at the Animal Laboratory (absl-3) of Weifang People's Hospital from September 2006 to January 2007. Sixteen New Zealand white rabbits (32 knees) (2.5-3.0 kg) were divided into experimental and control groups randomly, each 8 rabbits (16 knees). The 3.5 mm in diameter of full-thickness articular cartilage defect was made on femoral intercondylar fossa in all rabbits, and 3.5 mm in diameter of periosteum was cut out from the anteromedial part of the upper tibial bone. In the experimental group, the cartilage defect was covered with periosteum, into which 20 ?g BMP and 20% Pluronic were injected. In the control group, the cartilage defect was covered with periosteum, into which the same dosages of 9 g/L saline and 20% Pluronic were injected. All the rabbits were sacrificed in 4, 8 and 12 weeks postoperatively. Motion of joint, conjunction of repair tissue and perienchyma were examined macroscopically. Haematoxylin-eosin staining and toluidine blue staining were used to observe the characteristics of repair tissues. Histological scores on samples in each group were measured by Wakitani score standard at different time points with light microscope. Ultramicrostructure of transplanted tissues was observed with scanning electron microscopy (SEM). RESULTS: Sixteen rabbits were included in the final analysis. Macroscopic observation: 4 weeks after the surgery, the defect was covered with tissue like cartage in the experimental group, and with periosteum in the control group. 8 weeks after the surgery, the surface of the defect was smooth, with boundary unclear in the experimental group. In the control group, the outcome was the opposite. In 12 weeks, cartilage had formed in the experimental group, and tissue like cartilage began to happen in control one. Histological observation: 4 weeks after the surgery, the defect was filled with cells and matrix with abundant proliferation of periosteal cambium layer in the experimental group, and slight proliferation in the control group. 8 weeks after the surgery, the periosteum in the experimental group became fibrocartilage with little hyaline cartilage. Just little fibrocartilage with on hyaline one was detected in the control group. In 12 weeks, the repair tissue in the experimental group approached to normal cartilage. Just fibrous tissue with little fibrocartilage was detected in the control group. Regenerative repair of cartilage defect was better in the experimental group than in the control group (P

Objective To investigate the efficacy of gelatin sponge particles(GSP)or polyvinyl alcohol particles (PVA) for hemoptysis secondary to bronchiectasis or pulmonary tuberculosis. Methods The clinical data on 271 patients with bronchiectasis- or tuberculosis-induced hemoptysis were retrospectively analyzed. The efficacy and rates of recurrence and complications were analyzed. Results A total 271 patients were included in this study, 176 of whom suffered from bronchiectasis and the rest 95 had tuberculosis. One-week cure rate was signifi-cantly higher in bronchiectasis group than in tuberculosis group(73.3%vs. 46.3%,P<0.05),and one-year recur-rence rate was significantly lower in bronchiectasis group(17.6%vs. 26.3%,P<0.05). One-year recurrence rate was slightly higher in patients receiving GSP than in those undergoing PVA(bronchiectasis group:22.2%vs. 10.3%, P<0.05;tuberculosis group:28.8%vs. 22.2%,P>0.05). No severe complications occurred. Conclusions In-terventional artery embolization therapy for hemoptysis secondary to bronchiectasis is better than tuberculosis-induced hemoptysis,and PVA is more effective than GSP. Recurrence of massive hemoptysis mostly occurrs within one month ,and most of the patients are complicated with blood supply and have a history of hemoptysis.

BacKground:Acetic acid spray combined with narrow-band imaging ( NBI ) endoscopy can improve the earIy diagnosis of coIorectaI cancer and precancerous Iesions. Aims:To assess the vaIue of acetic acid spray combined with NBI in diagnosis of earIy coIorectaI cancer and precancerous Iesions. Methods:A totaI of 236 coIorectaI cancer and precancerous Iesions in 180 patients detected by screening endoscopy from Nov. 2011 to JuIy 2013 were enroIIed in this study. Acetic acid spray combined with NBI( combination group),singIe NBI,and indigo carmine staining were used to observe pit pattern,bIood capiIIary forms of the Iesion and mucosa whitening time,and vaIues of the three methods in diagnosis of earIy coIorectaI cancer and precancerous Iesions were evaIuated. Results:Image cIarity of pit pattern in combination group was significantIy improved than that in NBI group and indigo carmine group(χ2 =15. 113,P=0. 000;χ2 =6. 128,P=0. 013);image cIarity of bIood capiIIary forms in combination group was significantIy improved than that in NBI group(χ2 =7. 384,P =0. 007). The overaII coincidence rates of diagnosis in combination group,NBI group, indigo carmine group were 91. 9%,89. 0%,86. 9%,respectiveIy. The diagnosis rate of pit pattern in combination group was significantIy higher than that in NBI group(χ2 =4. 490,P=0. 034),but no significant difference in bIood capiIIary forms was found between combination group and NBI group. The sensitivity of type Ⅲ,Ⅳ,Ⅴ pit pattern,type Ⅱ,ⅢbIood capiIIary forms,mucosa whitening time <30 seconds for diagnosis of coIorectaI cancer and precancerous Iesions in combination group were 94. 0%,92. 8%,92. 2%,respectiveIy,the specificity were 87. 4%,88. 1%,88. 0%, respectiveIy,and the accuracy were 91. 5%,91. 1%,90. 7%,respectiveIy. The sensitivity,specificity and accuracy of type ⅤN or highIy irreguIar ⅤI pit pattern,type ⅢB bIood capiIIary forms and mucosa whitening time 0-5 seconds for predicting invasive carcinoma in combination group were aII quite weII. Conclusions:Acetic acid spray combined with NBI can cIearIy show the pit pattern and bIood capiIIary forms of earIy coIorectaI cancer and precancerous Iesions,and is fairIy consistent with the pathoIogicaI diagnosis. It is heIpfuI for diagnosing the nature of Iesion and depth of invasion.
