Objective:To investigate the feasibility and safety of endoscopic surgery in the treatment of fibro-adipose vascular anomaly (FAVA).Methods:Clinical data of FAVA patients who underwent endoscopic treatment admitted to Xi’an International Medical Center Hospital from October 1, 2019 to April 1, 2024 were retrospectively analyzed, including gender, age of onset, age of diagnosis, lesion location, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, hospital stays, incision complications, etc. Before endoscopy, magnetic resonance imaging and ultrasound were routinely used to locate the lesion range, and the surgical position and Trocar location were selected according to different lesion sites.Descriptive statistical analysis was conducted using SPSS version 26.0.Results:40 cases of FAVA patients were admitted during the period, all of whom underwent endoscopic radical resection, including 15 males and 25 females. The age of onset was 8 (6, 12.5) years. The age of diagnosis was 11 (8, 22.5) years. There were 31 patients with stage Ⅰ and 9 patients with stage Ⅱ. 31 cases involved the calf, of which 21 involved the calf triceps (gastrocnemius, soleus) and 9 involved the thigh, of which 1 patient had lesions originating from the fascia around the sciatic neurovascular bundle. 11 cases (27.5%) were converted to open surgery. The operative time was 192.5 (107, 292.5) min. The intraoperative blood loss was 35 (10, 87.5) ml. The length of hospital stay for endoscopic surgery was 9 (7, 11) d. The postoperative follow-up time was 11.5 (3.5, 13.5) months. Of the 40 patients, 39 were cured completely without residual pain or joint movement disorder after operation. Postoperative dorsiflexion function of the ankle joint was mildly limited in one patient classified as stage Ⅱ. There was no incision complication and recurrence.Conclusion:For patients with stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ FAVA, endoscopic surgery has concealed incisions, indistinct scars, definite therapeutic effects and high safety.

Objective:To explore the diagnosis, staging, and treatment of fibro-adipose vascular anomaly(FAVA).Methods:The data of the patients with FAVA admitted to Xi’an International Medical Center Hospital between October 2019 and February 2023 were retrospectively reviewed. Ultrasound and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) were routinely performed. X-ray and CT were performed for patients with unequal length of lower limbs, lesions involving joints, and obvious joint deformities. The treatment plan was made according to the stage: stage Ⅰ (pain stage), open or laparoscopi radical resection of the lesion was performed; stage Ⅱ (contracture stage), radical surgery was performed to remove the lesion, sometimes combined with Achilles tendon lengthening or tenolysis, and rehabilitation training was performed 2 weeks after surgery; stage Ⅲ(deformity stage), comprehensive treatment based on surgical resection was adopted, combined with joint capsule release, Achilles tendon lengthening or dissection, tendon transfer and oral sirolimus (each time 0.08 mg/m 2, twice daily ) before and after the operation. For patients with lesions involving multiple anatomical regions, staged surgery was performed, and in principle, only one anatomical region was operated per time. Patients were followed up for pain, joint activity and recurrence. Results:A total of 42 patients were admitted, including 18 males and 24 females. The onset age was (7.3±5.0) years, but the average age of diagnosis was (12.5±6.0) years. The lower limbs were involved in 38 cases, the upper limbs in 4 cases. There were 17 cases of stage Ⅰ, 17 cases of stage Ⅱ and 8 cases of stage Ⅲ. Only 4 cases had no misdiagnosis experience, and the misdiagnosis rate was 90.5%(38/42). Persistent pain, muscle contractures and joint deformities were the main clinical symptoms of the disease. MRI showed heterogeneous high and low signal intensity on T1-weighted images, and the high signal intensity was the same as that of subcutaneous adipose tissue. T2 fat-suppressed sequences showed stronger heterogeneous hyperintensity. The follow-up time was (14.6±10.8) months. Patients who took sirolimus orally before or after surgery experienced significant relief of pain symptoms. Of the 42 patients, the symptoms of 31 patients were completely relieved after the operation, and 11 patients still had residual pain or joint movement disorder or even deformity after the operation. Sixteen of 17 stage Ⅰ patients were cured, the lesion was further expanded and the pain recurred in 1 case after the operation. Of the 17 stage Ⅱ patients, 15 were cured, and 2 had mild limitation of ankle movement after the operation. Eight stage Ⅲ patients had varying degrees of pain or joint movement disorder after surgery, postoperative oral sirolimus significantly relieved symptoms. All 10 patients with stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ who underwent endoscopic resection were cured.Conclusion:FAVA usually occurred in school-age and adolescent children. Pain, muscle contracture and joint deformity were the characteristic clinical features. Combined with MRI features, the diagnosis can be confirmed. FAVA staging system could guide treatment and predict prognosis. For stage Ⅰ and Ⅱ patients, surgery should be performed as soon as possible and the prognosis was good. For stage Ⅲ patients, surgery-based comprehensive treatment could improve symptoms, but it was difficult to cure them radically. Oral sirolimus was also required after surgery.

Objective:To survey the influencing factors for depression based on path model analysis in late pregnant women, and to explore the interrelationships for depression.Methods:This cross-sectional study was conducted from January 2018 to March 2019.Antenatal women who came for a routine check-up at the antenatal clinic were invited to participate in the study.Collecting general information of pregnant women(including biological, psychological, social and other factors). The Hospital Anxiety and Depression Scale (HADS) was used to evaluate the incidence of depression during pregnancy.The differences between depression group and non-depression group were compared by SPSS 24.0, and the path analysis model was conducted by AMOS 21.0 to explore the influencing factors and interrelations of depression during pregnancy.Results:A total of 1 059 pregnant women completed questionnaire.The incidence of depression depression in third trimester women was 11.1%(118/1 059). The path model fitting well with the sample data(GFI=0.912, AGFI=0.901, RFI=0.920, CFI=0.931, RMSEA=0.033). Anxiety, psychological preparation for the current pregnancy, and level of education had both direct and indirect effects on depression in third trimester women(the total effects of the three factors were 0.381, -0.140 and -0.156, respectively). Sleep quality and family member with whom the pregnant women living during pregnancy had only direct effects (the effects were 0.136 and 0.107, respectively). Residence, monthly income of family and social support had only an indirect influence on depression(the effects were 0.175, 0.103, and 0.102, respectively).Conclusion:Path model analysis suggests that the residence, monthly income of family, family member with whom the pregnant women living during pregnancy and educational level are not easy to change. It is suggested the incidence of depression is reduced by intervening the pregnancy anxiety, social support, sleep quality and the psychological preparation for pregnancy.
