Objective To investigate the therapeutic effects of vitamin D combined with leuprorelin in girls with idiopathic central precocious puberty(ICPP).Methods A total of 102 girls with ICPP treated at The Fifth People's Hospital of Wuxi from January 2021 to January 2024 were selected and assigned to control group or observation group according to different treatment methods,with 51 girls in each group.The control group received subcutaneous injections of leuprorelin,while the observation group received vitamin D supplementation in addition to the leuprorelin injections.Both groups were treated for 12 months.The total effective rate,sex hormone levels(estradiol[E2],follicle-stimulating hormone[FSH],luteinizing hormone[LH]),primary sex characteristics(ovarian volume and uterine volume),growth metrics(height,body mass index[BMI],bone age,predicted adult height[PAH]),adverse reactions were compared between the two groups.Results The observation group had higher total effective rate than the control group.After treatment,sex hormone levels,ovarian volume,uterine volume,BMI,and bone age in the observation group were significantly lower than those in the control group,while height and PAH in the observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the incidence of adverse reactions between the two groups(P>0.05).Conclusion Vitamin D combined with leuprorelin can contribute to lowering sex hormone levels,slowing skeletal maturation,and improving PAH in ICPP girls.

Objective:To explore the possibility of using a inferior gluteal artery perforator flap (IGAPF) for breast reconstruction in the patient who did not have suitable donor site in back and abdomen.Methods:In November 2024, a 25-year-old unmarried and childless woman with right breast cancer received immediate right breast reconstruction by a right free IGAPF after modified right mastectomy in the Department of Breast and Thyroid Surgery, Second Affiliated Hospital of Hainan Medical University. The locations of perforators were confirmed by both Multi-detector computed tomography angiography (MDCTA) and portable Doppler blood flow detector before surgery. The IGAPF was designed to take the inferior gluteal wrinkle as the lower edge, the axis of the flap was parallel to the inferior gluteal wrinkle, and the width of the flap was estimated where the incision could be directly closed. The size of right IGAPF was 6.0 cm×19.0 cm. Sharp dissection was performed between the sarcolemma and muscle fibres of gluteus, then the perforators were dissected along the direction of muscle fibres of gluteus. The vascular pedicle was kept at about 8.0 cm in length. The diameter of artery was about 2.0 mm and that for the veins was about 1.5 mm. End-to-end anastomoses with the right thoracodorsal artery and vein were successfully carried out. The donor site was directly closed, and it was hidden in the inferior gluteal wrinkle. Postoperative outpatient clinical review was made.Results:Pathological examination reported: an invasive carcinoma of right breast, axillary lymph node metastasis (2/10). The patient recovered well and the flap survived without any complication, i.e. ischemic necrosis, infection and haematoma. The patient was off-bed at 3 days and discharged at 13 days after surgery. At the 40 days of postoperative follow-up, the patient achieved a good recovery and the lower limb activity was not affected by the surgery. The patient was satisfied with the reconstructed breast and donor site recovery. The patient followed with scheduled chemotherapy and subsequent radiotherapy. The volume of reconstructed breast was smaller than the other breast, of which the patient was fully informed before the surgery.Conclusion:A free IGAPF provides an alternative donor sites for achieving a breast reconstruction due to the reliable pedicle vessels and invisible donor scars.

Objective:To observe the clinical efficacy and side effects of injecting different doses of botulinum toxin type A (BTX-A) into children with spastic cerebral palsy (CP) and tiptoe deformity.Methods:A total of 107 children with tiptoe deformity resulting from CP were divided into group A ( n=35), group B ( n=36) and group C ( n=36) using a random number table. Group A received 3u/kg injections of BTX-A, group B received 4u/kg injections and group C received 5u/kg. The injections were guided by color Doppler ultrasound and followed by 4 courses of rehabilitation therapy. Before and 1, 3 and 6 months after the treatment, the modified Tardieu scale (MTS) was used to assess gastrocnemius spasms, while sections D and E of gross motor function scale 88 (GMFM-88) and the pediatric balance scale (PBS) were used to evaluate motor functioning and balance. Any side effects were also observed. Results:After the treatment, improvement was observed in all of the measurements, though there were no significant differences in the degree of improvement nor in the incidence of side effects among the three groups.Conclusions:There is no significant difference in clinical efficacy or side effects involved in using different doses of BTX-A to treat tiptoe deformity in children with spastic cerebral palsy. The recommended dosage is therefore 3u/kg.
