Objective: The aim of this study was to develop and assess the computer-assisted fabricated individual titanium mesh technique applied for reconstruction of fractured orbital walls to correct post-traumatic enophthalmus and diplopia. Methods: Twenty patients (12 males and 8 females) were inclu-ded in this study. All of patients suffered from unilateral impure orbital fractures. Group A included 8 patients who were reconstructed for the fractured orbit with computer-assisted fabricated titanium mesh technique. Group B had 12 patients treated with traditional methods (titanium meshes in 2, autogenous bone grafts in 7 and Medpor implantation in 3). CT data of group A was input into a image software to rebuild a 3-D orbit and then mirror the unaffected side onto the affected side to replace the demolished orbit. A resin model of the reshaped orbit was then produced and was used to develop custom-fabricated titanium mesh for repair of the fractured orbital wall. The fabricated mesh was used in operation to reconstruct the orbital wall. Treatment was assessed in comparison with traditional way by means of clinical examinations and CT measurements. Results: The difference between pre-operative and post-operative enophthalmos: the mean value of group A was 2.6 mm, group B was 2.0 mm;the difference between the pre-operative and post-operative enlargement volume of traumatic orbit: the mean value of group A was 4.3 mL, group B was 3.7 mL; Index of Medial orbital wall of both groups was 100% and Index of inferior wall reconstruction of group A was 84.7%, group B was 53.3%; The mean depth of implants of group A was 31.2 mm, of group B was 28.3 mm; Improvement of diplopia of group A was 1.5 quadrants, that of group B was 1 quadrant. There were no infection, gaze restriction, or graft extrusion in all patients after operation. Conclusion: Computer-assisted fabricated titanium mesh technique could provide more accurate orbital reconstruction and improve the correction of enophthalmus and diplopia.

Objective To evaluate the biological behavior,clinical features,and diagnosis and treatment of inverted urothelial papilloma. Methods A total of 113 cases of urothelial inverted papilloma were included in this retrospective analysis.Of them 102 were male and 11 were female,with a mean age of 55 years.Among the 113 cases of urothelial inverted papilloma 108 had the papilloma at low urinary tract.Of these cases,88 were treated by TURBT,6 by TURBT and TURP,10 by partial cystectomy,4 by partial cystectomy and prostatectomy,1 by total cystectomy.Five cases who had the papilloma at upper urinary tract underwent nephroureterectomy. Results 86 cases were followed up 0.5 to 10 years.Intravesical recurrentce occurred in 5 cases.Of them 2 cases developed malignance and 1 case underwent total cystectomy. Conclusions Inverted urothelial papilloma is a benign tumor,which appears male predominant.Most of the lesions localize at the bladder.The diagnosis can be established mainly by cystoscopy.Most of the inverted urothelial papilloma can be cured by TURBT with a satisfactory prognosis.

Objective To evaluate myocardial coronary flow reserve of syndrom X by real-time myocardial contrast echocardiography(MCE). Methods Ten patients with syndrome X and seven normal subjects were involved in the study. Real-time MCE was performed with acoustic contrast SonoVue,and the peak video density (A), and re-turgor velocity of microvessel (β), and the product of A ×β of quiescent condition and after adenosin loading were detected,and also the coronary flow reserve (CFR, the ratio of A xβ circa-adenosin loading). Results There was no significant difference of A between syndrom X and contrast group in quiescent condition, the β and product of A x β of patients with syndrome X were lower than those of contrast group, the CFR of syndrome X was obviously less than that of contrast group.Conclusions Myocardial microvessel function is abnormal in syndrome X, real-time MCE is useful for evaluate myocardial coronary flow reserve.

Objective To study the effects of CBL teaching mode on treatment plan making process among orthodontic postgraduates. Methods Totally 42 junior and senior orthodontic post-graduates were randomly divided into 2 groups (21 per group)named as experimental group and test group. Each group was further divided in to 3 teams involved in CBL and traditional teaching. Six cases of the same type malocclusion were selected each time;after 4 teaching cycle,test scores of two groups were analyzed with SPSS 19.0. Results were shown as mean ± standard deviation and t test andχ2 test were applied to evaluate the rationality and accuracy of treatment plan made by students. Survey questionnaire were issued to teachers and students after class and the assessment results of CBL teaching mode were summed up. Results Test scores were (88.61±8.34)in experimental group and (76.13±8.59)in control group with significant differences (t=3.16,P=0.01). Pass rate of two groups were 96.12%and 87.51%with significant differences (χ2=4.76,P=0.02). During the first teaching program, accurate rates of experimental group and control group were respectively 31.00% and 36.70% and ra-tionality were 33.31%and 33.30%. During the second teaching program,accurate rates of experimen-tal group and control group were 68.80%and 45.70%and rationality were 62.72%and 43.37%. During the third teaching program,accurate rates of experimental group and control group were 89.70% and 51.20%,and rationality were 95.00% and 66.70%. During the fourth program,accurate rates of ex-perimental group and control group were respectively 97.80% and 55.30% and rationality were 98.30% and 75.60%. Conclusions CBL teaching mode is helpful to improve the students' ability of analyzing clinical cases and making more accurate and rational treatment plan,however the increasing teaching cost and the course load are also involved.
