Objective:To compare postoperative complications between acellular dermal matrix(ADM)and direct suture for tongue mucosa defect repair during lingual mucosa urethroplasty.Methods:A retrospective analysis was conducted on 106 patients with anterior urethral stricture who underwent lingual mucosal urethroplasty at the Sixth People’s Hospital Affiliated to Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from July 2022 to July 2024. According to the needs of urethral reconstruction,lingual mucosa was harvested(graft length 0.5 cm longer than the stricture length). Using an instrumental variable method based on the surgeon’s preference,the tongue wound was repaired either with ADM or direct suture. The ADM group included 56 patients,aged(46.2±18.7)years;diabetes in 8 cases(14.3%),hypertension in 15 cases(26.8%),cardiopulmonary dysfunction in 3 cases(5.3%);stricture location:penile segment in 44 cases(78.6%),penoscrotal junction in 12 cases(21.4%);etiology:lichen sclerosus in 8 cases(14.3%),urethritis in 8 cases(14.3%),trauma in 24 cases(42.9%),and re-stricture after hypospadias surgery in 16 cases(28.6%);maximum urinary flow rate(5.8±2.9)ml/s;graft length(4.02±1.72)cm. The direct suture group included 50 patients,aged(45.8±19.2)years;diabetes in 6 cases(12.0%),hypertension in 12 cases(24.0%),cardiopulmonary dysfunction in 2 cases(4.0%);etiology:lichen sclerosus in 6 cases(12.0%),urethritis in 8 cases(16.0%),trauma in 25 cases(50.0%),and re-stricture after hypospadias surgery in 11 cases(22%);stricture location:penile segment in 36 cases(72.0%),penoscrotal junction in 14 cases(28.0%);maximum urinary flow rate(6.2±3.1)ml/s;graft length(4.18±1.68)cm. There were no statistically significant differences in the above baseline characteristics between the two groups( P>0.05).ADM group after electrocautery hemostasis,an ADM patch tailored to the wound size was used to cover the donor site. The edges of the ADM were overlapped with the wound margin and sutured to the submucosal layer using interrupted 4-0 polyglactin sutures. Direct suture group after electrocautery hemostasis,the wound was stretched into a diamond shape and closed in layers by suturing the mucosal layer down to the muscle layer using interrupted 4-0 polyglactin sutures. The primary outcome measures were postoperative tongue complications including hemorrhage,hematoma,and infection(Clavien-Dindo classification). Secondary outcomes included VAS pain scores,functional recovery(difficulty drinking,difficulty eating,speech impairment,limited mouth opening),and sensory recovery(sensory disturbance,taste disturbance). Results:The follow-up period ranged from 6 to 24 months,with a mean of 9.2 months. The 6-month follow-up rate was 100%. No Clavien-Dindo grade Ⅲ or higher complications(hemorrhage,hematoma,infection)occurred by the end of follow-up. Regarding secondary outcomes,the VAS pain score on postoperative day 1 was significantly better in the ADM group than in the suture group[0(0,3)vs. 2(0,3),P=0.013].Functional impact:The incidence of difficulty drinking[24 cases(42.9%)vs. 36 cases(72.0%),16 cases(28.6%)vs. 36 cases(72.0%),8 cases(14.3%)vs. 21 cases(42.0%)],difficulty eating[20 cases(35.7%)vs. 36 cases(72.0%),16 cases(28.6%)vs. 36 cases(72.0%),8 cases(14.3%)vs. 27 cases(54.0%)],and speech impairment[20 cases(35.7%)vs. 36 cases(72.0%),16 cases(28.6%)vs. 36 cases(72.0%),8 cases(14.3%)vs. 27 cases(54.0%)]on postoperative day 1,day 7,and within the first month,respectively,was significantly lower in the ADM group(all P<0.05). On postoperative day 1 and day 7,the incidence of limited mouth opening was higher in the ADM group[0 cases vs. 6 cases(12.0%),0 cases vs. 6 cases(12.0%)]( P<0.05).Sensory recovery:The incidence of taste disturbance was higher in the ADM group at 7 days[8 cases(14.3%)vs. 0 cases],1 month[8 cases(14.3%)vs. 0 cases],and 3 months[8 cases(14.3%)vs. 0 cases]postoperatively( P<0.05). The incidence of sensory disturbance was higher in the ADM group at 1 day[20 cases(35.7%)vs. 6 cases(12.0%)],7 days[16 cases(28.6%)vs. 6 cases(12.0%)],and 1 month[16 cases(28.6%)vs. 6 cases(12.0%)]postoperatively( P<0.05). Pain scores and complication rates were zero in both groups after 6 months. Conclusions:ADM repair improves early recovery but may increase transient sensory complications. Both methods are safe for clinical application.

ObjectiveTo investigate the clinical effect of Shipiyin combined with diosmin in the treatment of lymphedema with spleen Yang deficiency syndrome(SYDS)after modified radical mastectomy and the specific effect on the function of the affected limb. MethodEighty-two patients with lymphedema with SYDS after modified radical mastectomy from outpatient and inpatient department of breast department and oncology department of the First Affiliated Hospital of Hunan University of Chinese Medicine were randomly divided into an observation group(41 cases) and a control group(41 cases). The control group was given diosmin tablets(0.9 g per time, two times per day)on the basis of conventional treatment,and the observation group was given Shipiyin(one dose per day)on the basis of the control group. The course of treatment was 14 days. The clinical symptoms were observed and the limb circumference,traditional Chinese medicine(TCM) syndrome score,functional assessment of cancer therapy-breast cancer(FACT-B) score,disability of arm, shoulder and hand questionnaire(DASH) score,and joint range of motion were measured to analyze the TCM syndrome therapeutic effect and clinical efficacy. ResultAfter 14 days of treatment, the total effective rate of the observation group was 85.37% (35/41) and that of the control group was 63.41% (26/41) in the TCM symptoms, showing a statistically significant difference (Z=-2.212, P<0.05). In terms of the clinical efficacy, the total effective rate in the observation group was 82.93% (34/41) and that in the control group was 75.61% (31/41), indicating a statistically significant difference (Z=-2.061, P<0.05). Compared with the situations before treatment, the scores of clinical symptoms such as the swelling of the upper limb, pain, sense of heaviness, stuffiness, fatigue, fullness, tightness, and skin keratosis and pruritus in the two groups were significantly lowered (P<0.01) after treatment. Compared with the control group, the observation group could better improve the swelling and fullness(P<0.01),as well as the feeling of pain,heaviness,stuffiness,fatigue,tightness,skin keratosis and pruritus (P<0.05)of the upper limbs of patients. The affected limb circumference, TCM syndrome score, and DASH score decreased significantly, while the FACT-B score and upper limb joint range of motion increased significantly in the two groups after treatment (P<0.01). Compared with the control group, the observation group showed significantly reduced limb circumference at 10 cm proximal to the elbow striae, lowered TCM syndrome score, elevated FACT-B score(P<0.05), decreased DASH score and improved range of motion of the upper limb joint (P<0.01) after treatment. ConclusionShipiyin combined with diosmin has better clinical efficacy in the treatment of lymphedema with SYDS after modified radical mastectomy than diosmin alone,which can better improve the clinical symptoms,signs,quality of life and limb functional activity of patients. This provides a new clinical program for the treatment of lymphedema after breast cancer surgery with integrated Chinese and western medicine.
