OBJECTIVE: To explore posttraumatic stress disorder (PTSD) positive screening and factors influencing the mental state in victims who were evacuated/were not evacuated from Wenchuan earthquake area within 1 month. METHODS: The 3 groups included 235 victims who were not evacuated from Shifang territory (the incident scene, Group A), 44 victims who were evacuated to Second Xiangya Hospital (the wounded, Group B) and 36 relatives (the relatives, Group C). The mental state of all subjects was evaluated by Impact of Event Scale-Revised (IES-R) and other tools. RESULTS: (1) One month after the disaster, and the positive rate of PTSD screening in these survivors was 35.56%, the positive rate in women was significantly higher than that in men (chi(2)=16.27,P<0.001). The positive rate of PTSD screening in Group A, Group B and Group C was 39.15%, 31.82%, and 16.67%, respectively, with significant difference (chi(2)(mh)=5.243,P<0.05). Among the three groups which met the diagnosis criterion of PTSD symptoms, the scores for "numbness/avoidance symptom"and "excessive arousing symptom"in Group A were significantly higher than those in Group B and C (P<0.01). (2) The scores for "anxiety"and "depression"and "psychosomatic"symptoms in Group A and Group B were significantly higher than those in Group C (P<0.05). (3) Gender, place of residence and evacuating from the earthquake area or not were factors of PTSD symptoms. CONCLUSION One month after the earthquake, the victims suffered psychologically. PTSD symptoms, anxiety and depression symptoms were their major mental problems, more attention to especially women victims. The protection factors include dispersing victims to the secure place as soon as possible, expanding and strengthening society support. Early psychological interventions will help victims to raise their psychological endurance and prevent PTSD effectively.

Objective: To evaluate the feasibility and safety of transanal lateral lymph node dissection for mid-low rectal cancer. Methods: A descriptive case series research method was used. Clinical and pathological data of 5 mid-low rectal cancer patients who underwent transanal lateral lymph node dissection at Department of Colorectal Surgery, the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from November 2018 to May 2019 were retrospectively collected and analyzed. Of 5 cases, 4 were male and 1 was female with mean age of (43.2±13.2) years and mean body mass index of (21.2±2.6) kg/m²; the mean diameter of tumor was (3.2±2.4) cm; the mean distance between tumor and anus was (6.3±2.5) cm; 3 received preoperative neoadjuvant chemotherapy. In preoperative TNM staging, 2 cases were T3N1M0, 1 was T3cN2aM0, 1 was T3cN2bM0, and 1 was T2N1M0. All the patients had no intestinal obstruction before operation. Surgical methods: (1) total mesorectal excision: using general transanal and transabdominal methods to mobilize and resect total mesorectum, and dissect No.252, No.253 lymph nodes; (2) transanal lateral lymph node dissection: dissect the adipose lymphoid tissue on the surface of the iliococcygeal muscle, the coccygeal muscle, and the obturator muscle (the No.283 lymph nodes) upward, and dissect No.263d and No.263p lymph nodes with fat tissue sequentially till the bifurcation of the internal and external iliac artery; (3) take out the specimen from anus, and make anastomosis between proximal colon and anal canal. Intraoperative and postoperative variables was observed. Results: All the 5 patients completed surgery successfully, and no patient needed to convert to open approach. The mean operative time was (295.6±97.7) minutes, and the median intraoperative blood loss was 70 (50-500) ml. The mean length of specimen was (12.9±3.0) cm, and the mean number of harvested lymph node was 30.4±9.9. The positive lateral lymph nodes were founder in 4 patients. The median distance between tumor and distal resection margin was 1.5 (1.2-8.0) cm. The resection margin in all the patients was negative. The mean time to postoperative flatus was (4.2±1.6) days, the mean postoperative spontaneous urination was (3.0±1.9) days, time to drainage tube removal was (5.6±1.9) days, and the mean postoperative hospital stay was (9.4±2.1) days. The postoperative TNM staging by pathology was 1 case with T1N0M0, 1 with T2N1M0, 1 with T3N2bM0, and 2 with T3N2M0. Five patients were moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma. Only 1 patient developed postoperative abdominal bleeding, who was healed after conservative treatment. The other 4 patients did not develop any perioperative complications, such as incision infection, presacral abscess, pelvic abscess, anastomotic leakage, or anastomotic stricture. Four patients underwent postoperative chemotherapy. All the patients were followed up for 2 to 28 weeks after surgery and they all felt well. The patients with stoma had fluent bowel. Conclusions Transanal lateral lymph node dissection is feasible and safe in the treatment of mid-low rectal cancer, which can achieve the purpose of extended radical resection of mid-low movement rectal cancer. Moreover, this procedure is a new method to treat rectal cancer patients with lateral lymph node metastasis.

Objective To investigate the long-term efficacy of pure transanal total mesorectal excision (PtaTME) for middle-low rectal cancer.Methods The retrospective descriptive study was conducted.The clinicopathological data of 18 patients with middle-low rectal cancer who were admitted to the Sixth Affiliated Hospital of Sun Yat-sen University from July 2014 to August 2016 were collected.There were 7 males and 11 females,aged (58±13) years,with a range from 40 to 84 years.The body mass index was (22±3) kg/m2.All the 18 patients underwent PtaTME.Observation indicators:(1) surgical and postoperative conditions;(2) postoperative pathological examination;(3) follow-up and survival.Follow-up using inpatient reexamination,outpatient examination,and telephone interview were performed to detect anastomotic complications,anal function,urinary retention,sexual dysfunction,survival and tumor recurrence and metastasis once every 3 months within postoperative 6 months,once every 6 months from 6 months to 3 years,and once a year after 3 years up to June 2019.The measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean±SD,and the measurement data with skewed distribution were represented as M (range).Count data were expressed as percentages.Survival rates were calculated by the Kaplan-Meier method.Results (1) Surgical and postoperative conditions:18 patients successfully underwent PtaTME,without conversion to open surgery.The operation time,volume of intraoperative blood loss,distance between anastomosis and anal verge,time to first flatus,time to urinary catheter removal,and duration of postoperative hospital stay were (202±68) minutes,50 mL (range,20-400 mL),(4.5± 2.0)cm,2 days (range,2-7 days),3 days (range,2-5 days),and 7 days (range,5-10 days) in the 18 patients,respectively.There was no perioperative complication.Among 18 patients,4 underwent preventive ileostomy.(2) Postoperative pathological examinations:the length of surgical specimens,the number of lymph node dissection,distance from tumor to the distal margin were (11.0±3.0)cm,12±6,and 1.0 cm (range,0.8-3.7 cm),respectively.The 18 patients had complete mesorectal membrane excision,with negative proximal margin,distal margin,and circumferential margin.Tumor pathological staging:there were 2 cases in Tis stage,4 in T1 stage,7 in T2 stage,and 5 in T3 stage;16 in N0 stage,1 in N1 stage,and 1 in N2 stage.Tumor histological classification:2 patients had carcinoma in situ,9 had moderately differentiated adenocarcinoma,and 7 had high-differentiated adenocarcinoma.(3) Follow-up and survival:18 patients were followed up for 34.0-59.0 months,with a median follow-up time of 57.5 months.During the follow-up,4 patients developed grade B anastomotic leakage and were cured after conservative treatment.One patient developed anastomotic recurrence at 2 years after surgery,and no recurrence was found after surgical resection of the recurrent lesion.Four patients with prophylactic ileostomy had the stoma closured,and the anus function was satisfactory after surgery.There was no urinary retention or sexual dysfunction in the 18 patients.Of the 18 patients,17 had tumor free survival after surgery.The 3-year disease-free survival rate was 94.4％,and the 3-year overall survival rate was 100.0％ in 18 patients.Conclusion PtaTME can achieve high quality of specimen,which is safe and feasible for the treatment of rectal cancer.

Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of asymmetric osteotomy via posterior adjacent vertebrae in the treatment of traumatic thoracolumbar kyphotic scoliotic deformity.Methods A retrospective case series study was conducted on the clinical data of 16 patients with traumatic thoracolumbar kyphotic scoliotic deformity admitted to our department from January 2012 to January 2017.There were 10 males and six females,aged (42.5 ±7.6) years (range,20-62 years).According to the location of injured vertebrae,there were two patients with T11,five with T12,six with L1,and three with L2,all of which had scoliosis deformity and obvious low back pain.All patients underwent asymmetric osteotomy via posterior adjacent vertebrae.The operation time and intraoperative bleeding were recorded.The imaging parameters such as kyphosis Cobb angle,scoliosis Cobb angle,distance between C7 plumbline and central sacral vertebral line (C7-CSVL),and distance between C7 plumbline and sagittal vertical axis (SVA) were measured before and after operation.At the same time,the visual analogue scale (VAS),Oswestry dysfunction index (ODI),and SRS-22 scale were used to evaluate the clinical efficacy.The AISA score was used to evaluate the neurological function recovery before and after operation.Results All patients were followed up for (26.3 ± 16.8) months (range,15-65 months).The operation time was (6.0 ± 1.4) hours (range,4.5-9.0 hours),and the intraoperative bleeding was (900.5 ± 360.8)ml (range,800-1600 ml).The kyphosis Cobb angle was improved from (70.3 ± 9.8) °before operation to (12.2 ± 2.9) ° after operation (P ＜ 0.01).The scoliosis Cobb angle was improved from (47.6 ± 11.6) ° before operation to (4.0 ± 0.9) ° after operation (P ＜ 0.01).The C7-CSVL decreased from preoperative (3.1 ±0.8)cm to postoperative (1.2 ±0.4)cm (P ＜0.01),and the SVA decreased from preoperative (5.0 ± 0.9) cm to postoperative (2.9 ± 0.5) cm (P ＜ 0.01).No severe complications such as spinal cord and nerve injury occurred.The VAS decreased from preoperative (6.8 ± 1.0) to (1.9 ± 0.9) points at the last follow up.The ODI decreased from (54.6 ± 4.2) ％ before operation to (8.1 ± 2.5) ％ at the last follow up.The SRS-22 score was increased from (64.6 ±7.5) points before operation to (87.4 ± 3.2) points at the last follow-up.In terms of the ASIA classification,two patients were improved from grade C to grade D after operation,and six patients were improved from grade D to grade E.Conclusion Asymmetric osteotomy via posterior adjacent vertebrae is safe and effective in the treatment of traumatic thoracolumbar scoliosis,with high correction rate of scoliosis and kyphosis at the same time.

Objective To explore the accuracy and clinical efficacy of advanced 3D printing navigation templates in assisting placement of atlantoaxial pedicle screw.Methods A retrospective analysis was carried out on 49 cases of patients with atlanto-axial vertebral fractures and dislocations between June 2013 and June 2016,and all of them were given posterior incision,reduction and internal fixation of atlantoaxial pedicle screw.The patients were divided into advanced 3D printing navigation template group (14 cases),early 3D printing navigation template group (16 cases),and routine pedicle screw placement group (19 cases).Atlantoaxial CT data of patients in advanced 3D printing navigation template group and early 3D printing navigation template group were input into Mimics 17.0,then advanced 3D printing navigation template group and early 3D printing navigation which were used in clinic surgery were designed and printed.The relationship between positions of pedicle screw with the pedicle and bone cortex in plain CT image was observed after operation.The quality of the screw position was assessed and the accuracy of three kinds of screwing methods was compared.The accuracy of the screwing angle was assessed by comparing with the differences between the preoperative designed channel inclination angle and postoperative actual screwing angle.Three groups were compared for differences between operation time,intraoperative blood loss,and scores of cervical nerve scale and visual analogue scale (VAS) of neck and shoulder pain by Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA).Results All 49 cases of patients successfully completed the surgery.Patients of the routine pedicle screw placement group,early 3D group and advanced 3D group correspond operation time for 141.2±20.7 min,112.5±12.1 min and 103.1±10.4 min,intraoperative blood loss for 314.0±81.4 ml,243.6±71.2 ml and 181.0+59.1 ml;total accuracy of screwing for 75.0％ (54/72),93.75 ％ (60/64) and 96.43 ％ (54/56).There were statistically significant differences among the routine group,3D group and advanced 3D group in the mentioned programs.There were no statistical differences between advanced 3D group and 3D group in the inclination angle and head tilt angle with the pre-designed values,while there was statistically significant difference between the routine group and the pre-designed value.The accuracy of the inclination angle and bead tilt angle screwing angle were obviously superior in the advanced 3D group and early 3D group to that of the routine group.There were statistically significant differences between preoperative with postoperative VAS scores and JOA scores in the same group,while there were no statistically significant differences among groups in JOA.But there was statistically significant difference between the routine group and the advanced 3D in VAS,and there was no statistically significant difference between the routine pedicle screw placement group and the early 3D in VAS.All three groups of patients had bony fusion of atlantoaxial vertebral body,without loosening,dislocation and fracture of the internal fixators.Conelusion Advanced 3D printing templates in assisting the surgical treatment for atlantoaxial fracture and dislocation can improve the accuracy of pedicle screwing and safety of the surgery,reduce the surgery risk,and obtain satisfied clinical curative effects.

OBJECTIVEThe three-dimensional (3D) structure of left atrial appendage (LAA) in atrial fibrillation patients were reconstructed by Mimics 3D imaging system, aiming at guiding for selection of both the size and location of the closure devices and making preliminary risk assessment of LAA closure with Watchman system.

METHODSInclusion criteria were: ten voluntary patients with both atrial fibrillation and indication for LAA closure aging from 40 to 85 years old with contraindication for oral anticoagulants or unwillingness to take long-term oral anticoagulation therapy from May to December 2014. 3D reconstruction of LAA was preoperatively made by Mimics 3D imaging system. With the Mimics 3D reconstruction model and the results of both transesophageal echocardiography (TEE) and LAA radiography, the size and location for the closure device were chosen. The devices were planted at the ostium of the LAA.

RESULTSTen atrial fibrillation patients were enrolled (average age: (66.3±11.9) years old) and all successfully implanted with the Watchman LAA closure devices. Nine of them were with non-valvular atrial fibrillation with average CHADS2-VAS score (3.2±1.7) and HAS-BLED score (2.7±1.6). The rest one was a valvular atrial fibrillation patient with the history of the percutaneous balloon mitral valvuloplasty (PBMV) without surgical indications of mitral valve replacement (MVR). There was no blood leakage around the device by regular postoperative TEE and LAA radiography examinations. There were no complications of bleeding, embolism, or stroke through both at peri-operative period and at 1 month follow-up post procedure.

CONCLUSIONPreoperative Mimics 3D reconstruction of LAA by Mimics 3D imaging system among atrial fibrillation patients provides essential information guiding the successful LAA closures.
