OBJECTIVE: To explore clinical efficacy of percutaneous endoscopic discectomy with a lateral approach and dual-channel method in treating highly free lumbar disc herniation(LDH). METHODS: A retrospective analysis was conducted on 54 patients with highly free LDH who were treated with spinal endoscopic techniques from January 2021 to December 2022. Twenty-seven patients were treated with lateral approach dual-channel(lateral approach dual-channel group), including 16 males and 11 females, with an average age of (54.6±10.5) years old. Twenty-seven patients were treated with unilateral biportal endoscopic (UBE group), including 17 males and 10 females, with an average age of (52.9±12.3) years old. The number of intraoperative fluoroscopy, operation time and hospital stay, as well as visual analogue scale (VAS) and Oswestry diability index (ODI) of low back and leg pain between two patients before operation, 1 day, 1, 3, and 12 months after operation, and the efficacy was evaluated by the modified MacNab criteria at 12 mohths after operation. RESULTS: All patients were successfully completed surgical and were followed up, the time raged from 12 to 22 months with an average of (13.57±4.12) months. There was no statistically significant difference in operation time between two groups (P>0.05). The hospital stay of lateral approach dual-channel group was (3.9±1.1) days, which was shorter than that of UBE group (6.5±1.4) days, the number of intraoperative fluoroscopy in lateral approach dual-channel group was (12.7±2.1) times, which was more than that in UBE group (6.6±1.3) times, the differences were statistically significant (t=5.197, -7.532;P<0.05). VAS and ODI for low back pain at 1 day and 1 month after operation, and VAS for leg pain at 1 day after operation of lateral approach dual-channel group were superior to those of UBE group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). However, there were no statistically significant differences in VAS and ODI for low back and leg pain between two groups before operation and 3 and 12 months after operation (P>0.05). VAS and ODI of low back and leg pain were significantly improved at each time point before and after operation in both groups, and the difference were statistically significant (P<0.05). At 12 months after operation, according to the modified MacNab criteria, the excellent and good rates of therapeutic effects between lateral approach dual-channel group and UBE group were 92.6% (25/27) and 88.9% (24/27), respectively, and the difference was not statistically significant (χ²=0.22, P>0.05). CONCLUSION For patients with highly free lumbar intervertebral disc protrusion, both of lateral approach dual-channel method and UBE endoscopic surgery are safe and effective. Endoscopic surgery with lateral approach and dual-channel method could be performed under local anesthesia, allowing for the removal of the nucleus pulposus under direct vision. It is simpler, more efficient.

OBJECTIVE: To investigate platelet count trajectories after induction therapy with venetoclax combined with azacitidine (VA regimen) in newly diagnosed AML patients and further analyze its clinical significance. METHODS: Clinical date of 50 newly diagnosed AML patients who received VA treatment from March 2020 to July 2023 in Department of Hematology of the First Hospital of Lanzhou University were retrospectively collected. The platelet trajectories after induction chemotherapy were constructed by using group-based trajectory modeling. To study the association between diverse trajectories of platelet counts and compound complete remission (cCR) rate, overall response rate (ORR), minimal residual disease (MRD) negative rate and overall survival (OS) rate. The Cox proportional hazard model was used to evaluate the relationship between platelet trajectory and OS. The logistic regression was used to analyze the influence of individual characteristics on platelet trajectory. RESULTS: Two platelet trajectories were identified based on the model, including platelet slowly increased group (n=31, 62.0%) and platelet rapidly increased group (n=19, 38.0%). There were statistically significant differences in cCR rate, ORR and OS rate between platelet slowly increased group and platelet rapidly increased group (all P < 0.05). The Cox regression analysis showed that platelet rapidly increased group was associated with a decreased risk of mortality compared with platelet slowly increased group (HR=0.153, 95%CI : 0.045-0.527, P =0.003). Logistic regression analysis showed that IDH1/2 mutation (OR =3.908, 95%CI : 1.023-14.923, P =0.046) and platelet transfusion (OR =0.771, 95%CI : 0.620-0.959, P =0.020) were independent influencing factors of platelet trajectory. CONCLUSION The dynamic trajectory of platelet counts in newly diagnosed AML patients who received VA treatment can serve as a significant indicator to observe the efficacy and prognosis. The platelet rapidly increased is an independent protective factor for good prognosis. TheIDH1 /2 mutation and platelet transfusion are independent influencing factors of platelet trajectory.

Traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome (TSOFS) is a symptom complex caused by nerve entrapment in the supraorbital fissure after skull base trauma. If the compressed cranial nerve in the supraorbital fissure is not decompressed surgically, ptosis, diplopia and eye movement disorder may exist for a long time and seriously affect the patients′ quality of life. Since its overall incidence is not high, it is not familiarized with the majority of neurosurgeons and some TSOFS may be complicated with skull base vascular injury. If the supraorbital fissure surgery is performed without treatment of vascular injury, it may cause massive hemorrhage, and disability and even life-threatening in severe cases. At present, there is no consensus or guideline on the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS that can be referred to both domestically and internationally. To improve the understanding of TSOFS among clinical physicians and establish standardized diagnosis and treatment plans, the Skull Base Trauma Group of the Neurorepair Professional Committee of the Chinese Medical Doctor Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Neurosurgery Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, Neurotrauma Group of the Traumatology Branch of the Chinese Medical Association, and Editorial Committee of Chinese Journal of Trauma organized relevant experts to formulate Chinese expert consensus on the diagnosis and treatment of traumatic supraorbital fissure syndrome ( version 2024) based on evidence of evidence-based medicine and clinical experience of diagnosis and treatment. This consensus puts forward 12 recommendations on the diagnosis, classification, treatment, efficacy evaluation and follow-up of TSOFS, aiming to provide references for neurosurgeons from hospitals of all levels to standardize the diagnosis and treatment of TSOFS.
