BACKGROUND:Lisfranc injury is rarely seen in clinical practice, with a low incidence and a high misdiagnosis rate. At present, open reduction and internal fixation is the major treatment, but there is little evidence available on the long-term fol ow-up fol owing injury and foot motor functions fol owing surgery. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the change of foot functions after metal graft internal fixation in patients with Lisfranc injury. METHODS:Eighteen patients with Lisfranc injury were treated with internal fixation of metal grafts, such as Kirschner wire, screws and steel plate. At 6-8 weeks postoperatively, patients began to walk with crutches. After 1 year fol ow-up, the Footscan balance system and AOFAS scores were applied to evaluate the foot stability and function of patients. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:After 1 year of internal fixation, al bone fractures were healed, the peak pressure of affected foot in the fourth metatarsal (M4) and the fifth metatarsal (M5) was significantly increased (P<0.05), and the impulse in the fifth metatarsal (M5) and mid-foot bottom (MID) was higher than the contralateral side (P<0.05). The AOFAS score of affected foot was 87.26 ± 21.13 points, the rate of excellent and good efficacy accounted for 88.9%. Internal fixation can rebuild Lisfranc complex stability, the body weight is transferred from the inside to the outside in the front foot, and the remaining pressure did not change significantly, thus the foot function is recovered satisfactorily.

Objective To investigate the values of CD21 and CD43 proteins in the differential diagnosis of mucosa-associated marginal zone B-cell lymphoma (MALToma) from benign lymphadenosis. Methods The expression of CD21 and CD43 proteins in the tissues of 25 MALToma (case group) and 25 benign lymphadenosis (control group) was detected by immunohistochemistry. Results Abnormal CD21+follicular dendritic cells (FDC) meshes were found in all patients of case group. Most of the FDC meshes were sparse and broken, and a few were enlarged or fused into pieces. Intact CD21+FDC meshes were all found, and abnormal FDC meshes were not found in control group. The positive rate of abnormal FDC meshes in case group was significantly increased compared with that in control group (χ2 = 46.080, P= 0.000). The expression rate of CD43+in CD20+cells was 24 % (6/25) in case group, but it was negative in control group (χ2=4.375, P=0.030). Conclusions Abnormal CD21+FDC meshes and CD43+expression in CD20+cells are useful in the differential diagnosis between MALToma and benign lymphadenosis. The abnormal FDC meshes of MALToma are enlarged or fused in the minority of cases.

Objection To investigate the spectrum and survival status of HIV positive cancer in HuBei province, China. Methods HIV positive cancer patients were added up and followed up who had registered in Zhongnan Hospital between January 2004 and June 2009. The prognostic features were determined for HIV patients with cancer. Results The average age of HIV positive and HIV negative group who suffered with malignant neoplasm were 42.5±8.8 years and 55.1±13.7 years respectively (P <0.05), mean CD4 counts were (220.9±142.3)/μl and (554.4±174.3)/μl, respectively (P <0.05), the types of common cancer were NHL, cervical cancer, liver cancer and lung cancer, colon cancer, breast cancer, respectively. Anticancer and/or ART treatment were the important positive prognostic factors. Additional factors such as age and CD4 count were associated with survival of cancer patients with HIV infection. Conclusion Mean age of HIV positive cancer patients is about 42 years old. NHL, cervical cancer and liver cancer are HIV associated malignant tumor. ART and anticancer can effectively prolong the survival of HIV infected patients with cancer.

Objective:To measure the clivo-axial angle (CAA)and cervicomedullary angle (CMA)in upper cervical deformity patients who underwent computer-assisted posterior upper cervical reduction and fixation surgery,and analyze their correlation.Methods:In the study,25 patients with symptomatic upper cervical deformity were chosen for measurement of preoperative and postoperative CMA and CAA using magnetic resonance imaging (MRI)and intraoperative C-arm.The angle between the clivus plane and the straight line parallel to that of the posterior margin of the C2 vertebral body was defined as CAA;moreover,the angle between the straight line parallel to the ventral side of the cervical spinal cord and the straight line parallel to that of the ventral side of the medulla oblongata was defined as CMA.Two ex-perienced spinal surgeons performed the measurements.The CAA and CMA were measured three times, and the mean value was considered as the result.Results:Analyses of the CAA and CMA were per-formed with Wilcoxon rank test,which showed that there was consistency between the CAAs measured with MRI and intraoperative C-arm.The result showed that the postoperative CAA and CMA increased significantly compared with preoperation (P<0.001).Through Spearman rank correlation analysis,the preoperative CAA was positively correlative with the CMA (r=0.902,P<0.001),and so was the post-operative CAA (r=0.921,P<0.001).Conclusion:Preoperative and postoperative CAA in upper cer-vical deformity patients is significantly correlative with preoperative and postoperative CMA.CAA can be measured during surgery using intraoperative CT or C-arm based three-dimension navigation,and may predict the patient’s CMA,which cannot be measured during operation,but is essential for evaluating the decompression and reduction of the spinal cord.
