Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of free superficial iliac circumflex artery perforator flap with different arterial anastomosis methods for repairing soft tissue defects of limbs.Methods:A retrospective cohort study was used to analyze the data of 60 patients with soft tissue defects of limbs treated in Ningbo No.6 Hospital from March 2017 to March 2020, including 38 males and 22 females, aged 21-57 years［(35.6±3.1)years］. The wounds were located on the upper limb in 33 patients and the lower limb wound in 27 patients. The defect area was 4.5 cm × 2.0 cm-17.0 cm × 8.0 cm. All patients received debridement and vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) in stage I, and free superficial iliac circumflex artery perforator flap transplantation in stage II. The flap area was 4.9 cm × 2.6 cm-17.0 cm × 8.0 cm. According to the different anastomotic vessels, the superficial iliac circumflex artery was anastomosed end-to- side to the radial artery in 25 patients, the ulnar artery in 8, the dorsalis pedis artery in 18 and the anterior tibial artery in 9. Flap healing and healing time were detected. Texture and appearance of the flap were observed at the last follow-up. The appearance of the donor area was evaluated by Vancouver scar scale (VSS), and the satisfaction rate of appearance of the recipient area was measured by numerical score.Results:All patients were followed up for 5-15 months［(7.1±1.3)points］. All flaps survived successfully after operation, including arterial crisis in 4 patients, among which 2 had flap perforator anastomosed with the radial artery, 1 with the ulnar artery and 1 with the dorsalis pedis artery. There was no significant difference in flap crisis after end-to-side arterial anastomosis in different recipient areas ( P>0.05). For patients with flap perforator anastomosed with the radial artery, the ulnar artery, the dorsalis pedis artery and the anterior tibial artery, the flap healing time was 15(14, 16)days, 15(14, 16)days, 14.5(14，16)days and 14(14，15.5)days, respectively (all P>0.05). The flaps showed sufficient elasticity and soft texture at the last follow-up. For patients with flap perforator anastomosed with the radial artery, the ulnar artery, the dorsalis pedis artery and the anterior tibial artery, the VSS of the donor area was (10.2±1.5)points, (10.9±1.6)points, (9.4±1.5)points and (9.8±1.5)points at the last follow-up (all P>0.05), and the satisfaction rate of appearance of the recipient area was 9 (8, 10)points, 9(8, 9)points, 9(8, 9)points and 8(8, 9.5)points at the last follow-up ( P>0.05), showing that all patients were satisfied with the appearance of the wound. Conclusions:The transplantation of free superficial iliac circumflex artery perforator flap with different arterial anastomosis methods is safe and reliable in repairing soft tissue defects of limbs with advantages of low occurrence of postoperative vascular crisis, good flap survival, no influence on flap healing by different anastomotic vessels, hidden donor area with small scar and satisfactory appearance of the recipient area. It can be used as one of the common vascular repair methods for free tissue flap transplantation.

Objective:By comparing the changes of metabolic parameters before and after laparoscopic sleeve gastectomy (LSG) in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and obesity, the insulin resistance index (HOMA-IR) and atherogenic index of plasma (AIP) were calculated to evaluate the effect of metabolic surgery on insulin resistance and atherosclerosis in patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) and obesity.Methods:LSG treatment were retrospectively analyzed in 54 patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus and obesity, detection of preoperative and postoperative 1 month, 6 month of fasting plasma glucose (FPG), fasting insulin (FINS), triglyceride (TG), high-density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C), measuring blood pressure, body weight, calculating body mass index, and according to the steady state evaluation model and the formula for calculating HOMA-IR and AIP. Before and after surgery, paired t test was used, and Pearson correlation analysis and multiple stepwise regression analysis.Results:FPG, FINS, TG, HOMA-IR and AIP were (6.38±2.03) mmol/L and (5.36±1.33) mmol/L, (20.42±25.77) uU/mLand (11.22±3.62) uU/mL, (1.94±2.81) mmol/Land (1.70±2.33) mmol/L, (5.60±7.52) and (2.58±0.80), (0.15±0.27) and (0.08±0.25) ,which were significantly lower than those before surgery ( P<0.05) ,HDL-C was (1.04±0.20) mmol/L and (1.10±0.18) mmol/L at 1 and 6 months after operation, respectively, which was higher than that before operation ( P<0.05) .Preoperative correlation analysis showed that AIP was positively correlated with FPG, TG and HOMA-IR ( P<0.05), and negatively correlated with HDL-C ( P<0.05) .The results of multiple stepwise regression analysis showed that FPG, TG and HDL-C were independent influencing factors of AIP ( P<0.05) . Conclusion:LSG surgery can effectively reduce the blood glucose and lipid levels in patients with type 2 diabetes complicated with obesity, improve insulin resistance and reduce the plasma atherosclerosis index.

Objective:To investigate the clinical effect of the anterolateral femoral perforator flap（ALTP）pedicled with the oblique branch of lateral circumflex femoral artery（LCFA）assisted by CT angiography（CTA）examination for repairing soft tissue defects of limbs.Methods:A retrospective case series study was made on 51 patients with soft tissue defects of limbs treated in Ningbo No.6 Hospital from March 2015 to March 2020，including 31 males and 20 females at age of 26-63 years［（42.0±8.9）years］. The defects were located at the forearm in 15 patients，at the hand in 13，at the lower leg in 15 and at the ankle in 8. The size of defects ranged from 9 cm×6 cm to 18 cm×10 cm，with the size of flaps from 10 cm×6 cm to 20 cm×12 cm. A total of 33 patients were examined with CTA scanning and Doppler ultrasound（CTA group）and 18 patients with Doppler ultrasound（Doppler group）. All patients underwent debridement and negative pressure closed drainage（VSD）at stage I and were repaired by ALTP pedicled with the oblique branch of LCFA at stage II. The diameter and length of the vessel pedicle was recorded in CTA group before operationand in both groups during operation. The time of flap harvesting in both groups was recorded during operation. The survival of the flap in both groups was observed one week after operation. Zhang Hao's scoring standard was applied to evaluate the outcome at the last follow-up.Results:All patients were followed up for 6-12 months［（9.1±1.5）months］. In CTA group，the diameter of LCFA vessel pedicle measured before operation had no significant difference from that during operation（ P>0.05），while the length of LCFA vessel pedicle before operation［（12.3±2.1）cm］was longer than（10.9±2.2）cm during operation（ P<0.05）. The two group showed no significant differences in the diameter and length of LCFA vessel pedicle during operation（ P>0.05）. The time of flap harvesting in CTA group was（38.5±6.2）minutes，significantly shorter than（51.4±8.4）minutes in Doppler group（ P<0.05）. One week after operation，all flaps survived. Two patients developed flap arterial congestion in CTA group，among whom one survived after surgical revision and one with partially necrosis was healed after dressing change. One patient was found with flap arterial congestion with partial necrosis in Doppler group，who was healed after dressing change. There was no significant difference in postoperative flap arterial congestion between the two groups（ P>0.05）. The patients' satisfaction score in CTA group was（8.5±1.5）points at the last follow-up，higher than（7.4±2.0）points in Doppler group（ P<0.05）. Conclusion:For repairing soft tissue defects of limbs，free ALTP pedicled with the oblique branch of LCFA assisted by three- dimensional CT angiography can accurately get the information of perforator，shorten the flap harvesting time，and obtain satisfactory clinical results as compared to Doppler ultrasound.

Objective:To explore the effect of long-chain fat emulsion in parenteral nutrition therapy on the perioperative nutritional status of patients with low rectal cancer.Methods:A total of 204 patients who underwent rectal cancer surgery in the Third Hospital of Shanxi Medical University from January 2017 to June 2020 were retrospectively analyzed. The patients were divided into two groups according to the specific nutritional treatment methods, 100 cases in the study group used long-chain fat emulsion for parenteral nutrition support, and 104 cases in the control group used medium- and long-chain fat emulsion injection. After admission, the nutritional status of patients were evaluated according to the results of Scored Patient-Generated Subjective Global Assessment (PG-SGA) and related laboratory tests. At 7th day before the operation, the patients were treated with nutrition and electrolyte support. Parenteral nutrition and enteral nutrition combined treatment and early enteral nutrition were given after the operation. The albumin, prealbumin, retinol-binding protein, total cholesterol and body mass index (BMI) at 7th day before the operation, 1st day after the operation and 7th day after the operation and the patient's first exhaust time after surgery, occurrence of postoperative complications, postoperative fever and total hospital stay were recorded and compared between the two groups.Results:Postoperative first exhaust time [(42±11) h vs. (54±10) h], fever time [(48±8) h vs. (57±7) h], total hospital stay [(16.0±0.7) d vs. (18.0±0.9) d)], resting energy expenditure at the 7th day after surgery [(5 326±589) kJ/d vs. (5 840±599) kJ/d] and total cholesterol at the 7th day after surgery [(4.8±0.3) mmol/L vs. (5.0± 0.4) mmol/L] in the study group were lower than those in the control group, and albumin [(33±3) g/L vs. (28± 3) g/L], prealbumin [(0.189±0.041) g/L vs. (0.164±0.037) g/L] and retinol-binding protein [(0.039±0.016) g/L vs. (0.032±0.013) g/L] at the 7th day after surgery in the study group were higher than those in the control group, and the differences between the two groups were statistically significant (all P < 0.05). There was no statistical difference in other detection indexes between the two groups (all P > 0.05). Conclusion:The use of long-chain fat emulsion in low rectal cancer patients with malnutrition during the perioperative period may be more conducive to the recovery of the body.

The clinical data of 15 patients with duodenal trauma who were admitted to Shanxi Bethune Hospital from January 2012 to June 2019 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 13 patients with blunt injury and 2 with penetrating injury. The surgical procedure was selected by patient′s condition and extent of injury combined with the clinical symptoms, imaging examination and the Organ Injury Scale grading system of the American Association for the Surgery of Trauma (AAST-OIS). All patients were followed up through outpatient examination and telephone interview till February 2020. Ten patients were diagnosed as duodenal trauma by CT scan before operation, and 5 patients were diagnosed during the operation. According to the AAST-OIS, 1 patient was with grade Ⅰ injury, 6 in grade Ⅱ, 5 in grade Ⅲ, 2 in grade Ⅳ and 1 in grade Ⅴ. All 15 patients received surgical treatment, including 1 with simple suture, 5 with break suture and duodenal diverticularization, 6 with break suture and biliary drainage (3 with hepatocystic duct drainage and 3 with cholecystostomy), 2 with pancreaticoduodenectomy. Postoperative complications occurred in 3 patients with Clavien system classification of Ⅲ b, Ⅱ and Ⅱ. One patient with duodenal stricture and severe abdominal infection was cured after gastrectomy and Billroth Ⅱ gastrojejunostomy 6 months after operation, and 2 cases with duodenal fistula were cured after conservative treatment. One patient who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy was followed up for 6 months in the outpatient department, and 14 patients were followed up for 6-24 months. For emergency abdominal trauma patients with suspected duodenal injury, surgical exploration should be carried out actively. The site and range of intestinal wall injury should be considered in order to select a reasonable operation. Effective duodenal decompression and complete peritoneal drainage are important for the success of surgery. Early postoperative enteral nutrition support is one of the key measures for successful wound healing.

Objective: To investigate the feasibility and clinic outcome of the turbocharging technique in repairing large defect with free perforator flap. Methods: From January 2017 to December 2018, 6 patients with defect of over length or large size were repaired with free perforator flaps, anterolateral thigh(ALT) flap in 3 cases and deep inferior epigastric artery perforator(DIEP) flap in 3 cases in Department of Hand Surgery, Ningbo No.6 Hospital. There were 4 males and 2 females, aged from 29 to 54 years old, with an average age of 41 years old.It was found that the size of the flap beyond the perforasome, while multiple perforators in the flaps were not from the same pedicle. The turbocharging technique was applied in the operation. The distal perforator of the flap was anastomosed with the proximal pedicle branch. The flap size ranged from 20 cm×8 cm to 25 cm×12 cm. The donor sites were closed directly for 3 cases and skin grafting for 3 cases. Results: All the flaps survived successfully, no distal necrosis occurred. The patients were followed up for 3 to 12 months, with an average of 9 months. All flaps survived well with satisfactory appearance and pliable texture. The healing of skin graft was satisfactory in 3 cases in donor site. No graft skin contracture occurred. The donor sites closed directly in 3 cases had linear scar in donor site, no obvious contracture occurred. The flap sensation returned to S2-S3. Conclusions If the size of the flap is super long or large, beyond the perforasome, while multiple perforators in the flaps were not from the same pedicle, the application of turbocharging technique can avoid partial necrosis of the flap and improve the survival rate of the flap, which is an ideal alternative.
