Objective To study the methodology of the ear reconstruction using Medpor framework. Methods Using Medpor material as ear framework, 112 cases of ear reconstruction were performed using the expanded skin flap on the mastoid region(method Ⅰ) and the temporal fascia flap adding skin graft ( method Ⅱ) to cover ear framework. Twenty-three cases adopted method Ⅰand 89 cases adopted methodⅡ. Results One hundred and nine cases of the reconstructed ear were successful with a good appearance and 3 cases were failure. The exposure of Medpor framework occurred in 17 cases in this series. Among them the method Ⅰ occurred in 8 cases (34 %) and the method Ⅱ was used in 9 cases (10%). The exposure of Medpor framework in 14 cases were repaired using local skin flap or local fascia flap and skin graft. In 3 cases Medpor framework had to be removed due to the sever exposure. Conclusion It seems that Medpor framework is a good alternative for the ear reconstruction.

Objective To investigate the reconstructive effect and method on breast deformation after polyacrylamide hydrogel injection for breast augmentation.Methods Sixty patients underwent B type ultrasonic and MRI examination for confirmation of breast deformation after removal of polyacrylamide hydrogel injection and clear distribution level of the injection material and surrounding tissue infiltration.According to skin elasticity,breast subcutaneous layer,glandular layer and pectoral muscle layer,then placed in the suction apparatus with injection of normal saline and completely sucked out and clear the injection material.Based on the wishes of patients and tissue damage,divided into Ⅰ or Ⅱ prostheses implanted and provided appropriate treatment Results Within 3 months to 3 years visiting,breast shape was good.Prosthesis had no herniation,without infection.Bilateral breasts were symmetry without capsular contracture.Conclusions Reconstruction of breast deformation after polyacrylamide hydrogel injection for breast augmentation can improve breast shape and achieve satisfactory effects.

Objective To evaluate the efficacy of Coopdech bronchial blocker combined with a strengthened single-lumen tube for airway management in patients undergoing upper mediastinal tumor resection. Methods Twenty-two ASA Ⅱ or Ⅲ patients, aged 24-66 yr, weighing 48-78 kg, scheduled for elective resection of upper mediastinal tumor, were randomly divided into 2 groups (n=11 each):double-lumen tube group(groupⅠ) and Coopdech bronchial blocker combined with a strengthened single-lumen tube group(group Ⅱ).One-lung ventilation was achieved with a double-lumen tube in groupⅠ. The Coopdech bronchial blocker combined with a strengthened single-lumen tube was used for airway management and the Coopdech bronchial blocker was used for lung isolation when one-lung ventilation was required in group Ⅱ. The fiberoptic bronchoscope was used to assist endotracheal tube positioning in both groups. The intubation time, positioning time, the number of patients required for tube displacement, the number of fiberoptic bronchoscopy, increase in airway peak pressure, degree of lung collapse, postoperative sore throat and hoarseness, and the number of patients needing ventilator-assisted ventilation were recorded. Results The intubation time was significantly shorter, the number of patients required for tube displacement was significantly smaller,and the rate of increase in airway peak pressure and incidences ofpostoperative sore throat and hoarseness were significantly lower in group Ⅱ than in group Ⅰ (P＜0.05 or0.01). Conclusion The efficacy of the Coopdech bronchial blocker combined with a strengthened single-lumen tube for airway management is better in patients undergoing upper mediastinal tumor resection than the double-lumen tube.

Objective To report the treatment outcome of nonunion of tibial fractures with local muscle flap transfer and injection of autogenous bone marrow. Methods 15 patients who had suffered from nonunion of tibial fracture 10 to 42 (mean 22) months after the initial injury underwent open reduction, internal fixation with locking intramedullary nail, wound coverage with locally transferred muscle flap and injection of autogenous bone marrow into the fracture site 12 to 15 days after operation. Results The follow-ups revealed bone union in all the cases of this series with a mean healing time of 22 (3 to 11) months. Except for limited necrosis of the skin edge in 2 cases which healed after dressing changes, the wounds healed primarily in all the cases without infection and implant failure. Conclusion Besides stable internal fixation and bone graft, coverage of fracture site with locally transferred muscle flap and injection of autogenous bone marrow can be used to treat nonunion of tibial fractures with satisfactory results.

Objective To investigate the clinical indication and effect of instant reconstruction of breast after removal of polyacrylamide hydrogel injection for breast augmentation.Methods Patients had breast ultrasound,MRI check before operation,to define the distribution and level of the injections and tissue infiltration.Depending on tissue degree,capsule integrity and breast degeneration situation,three different methods were chosen,including implantation of silicone gel underneath the breast,pectoralis major or dual-plane.Results 56 patients' incision healed well.Follow-up for 6 months to 3 years showed that breast shapes were good without scars,prosthetic herniapsular,capsular contracture and other complications.Conclusions Instant reconstruction of the breast after removal of polyacrylamide hydrogel injection can improve breast shape and get satisfied effects.

Objective To compare the effects of different medications of fentanyl during anesthesia induction on fentanyl-induced cough.Methods Four hundred and twenty ASA Ⅰ or Ⅱ patients aged 18-60 yr undergoing selective operations under general anesthesia,were randomly divided into 4 groups ( n =105 each):group Ⅰ (control group) received successive intravenous injection of midazolam 0.05 mg/kg,fentanyl 2 μg/kg,propofol 2 mg/kg,and rocuronium 1 mg/kg,group Ⅱ (pre-injection group) received successive intravenous injection of midazolam0.05 mg/kg,fentanyl 0.5 μg/kg,propofol 2 mg/kg,rocuronium 1 mg/kg,and fentanyl 1.5 μg/kg,group Ⅲ (dilution group) received successive intravenous injection of midazolam 0.05 mg/kg,fentanyl 2 μg/kg (20 μg/ml),propofol 2 mg/kg,and rocuronium 1 mg/kg,and group Ⅳ (last injection group) received successive intravenous injection of midazolam 0.05 mg/kg,propofol 2 mg/kg,rocuronium 1 mg/kg,and fentanyl 2 μg/kg.Fentanyl concentration was 50 μg/ml in each group except group Ⅲ.Endotracheal intubation was performed 2 min after anesthesia induction.The incidence and severity of fentanyl-induced cough before intubation were recorded and the incidence of propofol-induced pain was recorded.Invasive arterial blood pressure (ABP) and heart rate (HR) were observed before induction (T1 ),immediately after induction (T2 ),at time of coughing (T3 ),and at time of endotracheal intubation (T4).Results ABP and HR had no significant differences at T1,T2,T3,and T4between the four groups (P ＞ 0.05).The incidence of propofol-induced pain had no significant differences between the four groups (P ＞ 0.05).The incidences of cough was 7.6％ in group Ⅱ,9.5％ in group Ⅲ,and 1.9％ in group Ⅳ,which were significantly lower than 35.2％ in group Ⅰ ( P ＜ 0.01).The incidence of cough in group Ⅳ was significantly lower than that in groups [ and Ⅲ (P ＜ 0.05).In the four groups,ABP and HR were significantly higher at T3 than that at T1 and T2 ( P ＜ 0.01 ).Conclusion Different medications of fentanyl including last injection,pre-injection,and dilution of fentanyl can significantly reduce the incidence of fentanyl-induced cough during anesthesia induction,and injection has the best effect.

Objective To investigate the effect of lung protective ventilation regimen on regional cerebral oxygen saturation(rSO2)during one-lung ventilation(OLV)in elderly patients undergoing radical esophagus cancer resection.Methods Forty ASA Ⅰ-Ⅲ patients,aged 65-76 yr,weighing 45-75 kg,undergoing radical esophagus cancer reseclion,were randomly divided into 2 groups(n =20 each):conventional ventilation group(group CV)and prolective ventilation regimen group(group PV).Anesthesia was induced with midaaolam 0.05 mg/kg,sufentanil 0.4 μg/kg,rocuronium 1 mg/kg and propofol 1.5 mg/kg and maintained with 2％ sevoflurane and intermittenl iv boluses of rocuronium 0.5 mg/kg.Double lumen tube was inserted.Correct positioning was verified by fiberoptic broncboscopy.The patients were mechanically ventilated.In group CV,PEEP was set at 0,Vt was set at 10 ml/kg,and I:E was set at 1:2 during two-lung ventilation(TLV)and OLV.In group PV,PEEP was set at 5 cm H2O,Vt was set at 6 ml/kg,and I:E was set at 1:2 during TLV and OLV.PETCO2 was maintained at 35-40 mn Hg in both groups.Arterial blood samples were taken before induction of anesthesia,at 10 min of TLV and at 30 min of OLV for blood gas analysis.Qs/Qt was calculated and rSO2 was recorded at the same time.Low rSO2 (rSO2 score ＞ 3000％)was recorded during OLV.Results Compared with group CV,PaO2 and rSO2 were significantly increased,and Qs/Qt was significantly decreased at 30 min of OLV,and the incidence of low rSO2 was significanfly decreased in group PV(P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Lung protective ventilation regimen can improve oxygenation,decrease intrapulmonary shunt,and reduce the occurrence of low rSO2 during OLV in elderly patients undergoing radical esophagus cancer resection.

Objective To identify the clinical and pathological features of blastic plasmacytoid dendritic cell neoplasm (BPDC). Methods The characteristics of BPDC hematodermic neoplasm were discussed with a report of two new cases and review the literatures. Results Both patients presented with skin nodules and the tumors were CD+4 and CD+56. Lineage specific markers for B- and T-cell were negative and the tumors did not express myeloperoxidase. Systemic chemotherapy resulted in complete remission, but the disease relapsed quickly and were unresponsive to further chemotherapy. The patients died 26 months and 11 months respectively after diagnosis. Conclasion BPDC hematodermic neoplasm is a rare subtype of lymphoma with distinct clinicopathologic and immunophenotypic features. The disease often has a fulminant course with a poor prognosis. More recent studies suggest that there is a derivation from a plasmacytoid dendritic cell precursor.

Objective To review the efficacy of bisphosphonates in reducing skeletal events in patients with multiple myeloma. Methods Two hundred and five patients with newly diagnosed MM were enrolled in this retrospective study,with bisphosphonates or not.Skeletal-related events,therapeutic reaction of myeloma bone disease and patient survival were analyzed. Results The occurrence of skeletal-related events (SRE) per patient year (P＜0.01) and the time to first SRE (P＜0.05)were significantly lower in the reatment group than in the untreated group. After 6 cycles of treatment, a significant higher percentage of effective and marked effect patients were observed through X ray in the treatment group (80.0 ％) compared to the untreated group (48.7 ％), P＜0.001. There was no overall significant difference in the level of serum calcium between the two groups (P=0.278). After 6 cycles of treatment, the patients who received bisphosphonates had significant decreases in bone pain and lower ECOG score (ECOG≤2) compared to the untreated group (P＜0.05). Bisphosphonates were tolerated well, and the common adverse reaction including gastrointestinal reaction (3 cases,3.3 ％),fever (lcase,1.1％) and skin rash (2 cases,2.2 ％).There was no significant difference in overall survival between the two treatment groups,(P=0.580).Conclusion Infusions of Bisphosphonates could reduce the occurrence of skeletal- related events (SRE), prolong the time to first SRE and improve the quality of life of patients with multiple myeloma. Bisphosphonates could not prolong survival time of myeloma patients.

Objective To identify the clinical and pathological features of aggressive natural killercell leukemia (ANKL). Methods 9 cases of ANKL fulfilling the criteria defined by the World Health Organization classification were retrospectively analyzed with literature review, Results Systemic symptoms, hepatomegaly, splenomegaly, lymphadenopathy were frequently observed. Liver dysfunction, neutropenia, anemia and thrombocytopenia were often seen during the course of the disease. Most of the bone marrow shows focal or subtle infiltration by the neoplastic cells. The immunophenotype of cells was characteristic for CD+56, sCD-36, and variable expression of CD2, CD7, CD8 and CD11b. T-cell receptor (TCR) genes rearrangement were in germline configuration. Median survival time was 9 weeks. Conclusion ANKL is an entity of mature cytotoxic NK-cell neoplasms with distinct phenotype and disease presentations. The disease often has a fulminant course with a poor response to chemotherapy and a short survival time. Patients achieving CR showed significantly longer survival time, but the remission did not translate into cure of the disease.
