ObjectiveTo find out the risk factors causing iatrogenic spinal cord injury (ISCI) so as to provide theoretical support for reducing the spinal cord injury during spinal operation. Methods A retrospective study was done on 120 patients undergone cervical or thoracic spinal( C1-T12 ) surgery at Xiangya Hospital of Central South University from January 2002 to January 2009. The patients were randomly divided into injury group (n = 34) and control group (n = 86) and the univariate analysis was used to analyze 30 factors including clinical factors, iconography factors, operation and pathology factors as well as possible protective factors. Then, the factors with statistical difference were analyzed by using the multi-factor unconditioned Logistic analysis.Results The univariate comparison between the two groups showed statistical difference ( P ＜ 0. 05 ) in nine factors including combined hypertension, combined diabetes mellitus, preoperative ASIA grade, spinal canal stenosis rate, ratio of spinal cord area/efficient area of vertebral canal, spinal cord MRI T2WI high signal, bleeding amount during operation, intraspinal prominence adhesion to dura mate of spinal cord as well as intraoperative use of methylprednisolone. The multi-factor Logistic regression analysis revealed that ASIA grade, value of spinal cord area/efficient area of vertebral canal, spinal cord MRI T2W1 high signal and bleeding amount in operation had positive correlation with ISCI. Use of methylprednisolone during operation had negative correlation with ISCI. ConclusionsCombined diabetes mellitus, ASIA grade, spinal cord MRI T2W1 high signal, ratio of spinal cord/vertebral canal area and bleeding amount in operation are the risk factors for ISCI. Use of large dose methylprednisolone exerts preventive effect on ISCI.

Objective To investigate the effect of dexmedetomidine combined with sufentanil on postoper-ative analgesia in patients undergoing thoracoscopic lobectomy. Methods Sixty patients undergoing thoracoscopic lobectomy were randomly divided into the dexmedetomidine group(DS group)and the control group(S group). The two groups were treated with PCIA.The Group DS:dexmedetomidine 2 μg/kg+sufentanil 1.5 μg/kg+ondan-setron 8 mg;and the group S:sufentanil 2 μg/kg+ondansetron 8 mg,in which all drugs were dissolved in 100 mL 0.9 normal saline. Parameters:loading dose 2 mL;infusion speed 2 mL/h;PCA dosage 2 mL each time;lock time:15 min. The mean arterial pressure(MAP),heart rate(HR),resting(VASR)and cough(VASC)VAS score,and Ramsay sedation score were recorded at 2,6,12,24,36 and 48 h after surgery.The number of press analgesic pump,the amount of sufentanil used,the incidence of adverse reactions such as,the nausea and vomit-ing,respiratory depression,bradycardia and so on were recorded within 48 h after operation. Results Compared with the group S,the MAP and HR of patients in the group DS decreased significantly at each time(P < 0.05), the scores of VASR and VASC decreased obviously at 6,12,24 h after surgery(P<0.05),the number of press analgesic pump,the amount of sufentanil used,the incidence of nausea and vomiting decreased obviously within 48 h after operation(P<0.05).Conclusions Dexmedetomidine combined sufentanil administration in PCIA after thoracoscopic lobectomy can obtain satisfactory analgesic effect and more stable hemodynamics,and reduce the dosage of sufentanil,the incidence of nausea and vomiting.

Objective To evaluate 3D printing abdominal aortic aneurysm model in analysis of clinical teaching effect for standardized resident doctors in vascular surgery department. Methods 48 resi-dents in vascular surgery department in our hospital from December 2016 to September 2017 were seleeected and randomly divided into control group and the experimental group. The traditional vascular surgical anatomy atlas, ultrasound, CT abdominal blood vessel 3D reconstruction, digital subtraction, video and so on were used by 24 residents in the control group, while in the experimental group, on the basis of the traditional teaching, abdominal aortic aneurysm model of 3D printing, true aortic coated stent delivery system were increased. After the teaching, the theory of evaluation (abdominal vascular anatomical features, morphological characteristics and classification of AAA, measurement of various parameters and key points of operation in the EVAR) and satisfaction questionnaire were adopted to evaluate the effect of two kinds of teaching methods. SPSS 19.0 was used to conduct t test on two groups of physician evaluation data. Results The results of theoretical assessment showed that there was no significant difference between the control group and the experimental group in the abdominal vascular anatomical features, the morphological features and the classification of the experimental group (P>0.05) in the examination of the common AAA cases and the complicated AAA cases. However, the experimental group was higher than the control group in the mea-surement of the parameters of EVAR, and the score of the operation points and the total score, and the difference was statistically significant (t=2.283, t=2.263, P<0.05). The results of the questionnaire showed that the students' satisfaction scores on the teaching satisfaction of the normal and complex AAA cases were better than those of the control group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). Conclusion The 3D printing model can increase the understanding and mastery of the anatomy and treat-ment of abdominal aortic aneurysm and improve its learning enthusiasm for vascular surgery. We should make full use of the advantages of 3D printing technology on the basis of retaining the advantages of tradi-tional teaching methods and means, and further enhance the teaching effect.

Objective:To investigate the incidence and related risk factors related to early postoperative complications after hepaticojejunostomy surgery for iatrogenic bile duct injury.Methods:A retrospective analysis was made on the data of 110 cases undergoing a hepaticojejunostomy at the First Affiliated Hospital of Anhui Medical University and Anhui Provincial Hospital from January 2001 to December 2018. The univariate and multivariate analyses were performed to explore the impact risk factors on the short-term complications.Results:Patients′ median age was 44 years old. The short-term postoperative complication rate was 35.5% and the serious complication rate was 17.3%. Univariate analysis showed that male, a failed repair was attempted before referral, intraoperative bleeding>400 ml, and duration of surgery were significantly related to the occurrence of early postoperative complications (all P<0.05). Multivariate analysis showed that male, pre-referral failed surgical repair, preoperative bile leakage, initially combined with hepatectomy, and intraoperative bleeding>400 ml were independent risk factors for postoperative short term complications (all P<0.05). Univariate and multivariate analysis of early postoperative severe complications(Clavien-Dindo≥Ⅲ) revealed that pre-referral surgical repair, combined liver resection, and intraoperative bleeding>400 ml can significantly affect the occurrence of early postoperative severe complications (all P<0.05) . There was no significant correlation between the timing of biliary repair and the occurrence of complications ( P>0.05). Conclusions:Upon the occurrence of iatrogenic bile duct injury, the surgeon is advised to refrain from doing a repair instead sending the patient to a referral hospital. If bile leakage persists before surgery, sufficient bile drainage should be given priority to control infection.

3D printing technology has been widely applied in the field of clinical education in vascular surgery due to the advantage of 100% reduction of objects. Vascular surgeons with different levels benefit from 3D printing application in anatomy structure, operation plan, skill training with simulator. At present, the application of 3D printing model in vascular surgery is still in the initial stage with some limitations. This paper reviews the application, limitations, and prospects of 3D printing model in clinical teaching of vascular surgery.
