AIM: To compare the effects of different nucleus chopping methods on the central corneal thickness, corneal endothelial cell(CEC)count and tear inflammatory indicators in patients with hard nucleus cataract.METHODS: Retrospective study. Totally 89 patients(89 eyes)with hard nucleus cataract who treated in our hospital were included from January 2020 to December 2022. According to different intraoperative nucleus chopping methods, the patients were divided into reverse prechop group(46 eyes)and phaco-chop group(43 eyes). The total effective rate of surgery and visual acuity recovery were compared between the two groups. Corneal related indicators(central corneal thickness, CEC count, CEC area), tear inflammatory indicators and tear film function [tear film break-up time(BUT), Chinese Dry Eye Questionnaire(CDEQ), Schirmer Ⅰ test(SⅠt)] were observed before and after surgery in both groups, and the degree of corneal edema was evaluated.RESULTS: The effective phaco time, phaco energy and cumulative complex energy parameters in the phaco-chop group were longer or higher than those in the reverse prechop group(P<0.05). The macular retinal thickness in the reverse prechop group at 7 d and 1 mo after surgery was thinner than that in the phaco-chop group, the central corneal thickness at 3 and 7 d after surgery was also thinner than that in the phaco-chop group, the CEC count at 3 mo after surgery was more than that in the phaco-chop group, the CEC loss rate was lower than that in the phaco-chop group, and the CEC area at 3 mo after surgery was smaller than that in the phaco-chop group(P<0.05). The levels of tear TNF-α and IL-6 at 7 d and 1 mo after surgery in the reverse prechop group were lower than those in the phaco-chop group(P<0.05). The BUT at 1 and 3 mo after surgery was longer in the reverse prechop group than that in the phaco-chop group(P<0.05). The CDEQ score in the reverse prechop group was lower than that in the phaco-chop group at 1 and 3 mo after surgery(P<0.05). The SⅠt at 1 and 3 mo after surgery was higher in the reverse prechop group compared with that in the phaco-chop group(P<0.05). The degree of corneal edema at 1 d after surgery was milder in the reverse prechop group than that in the phaco-chop group(P<0.05). CONCLUSION: Compared with phaco-chop, the application of reverse-chopper prechop combined with phacoemulsification can better reduce the ultrasonic energy in the treatment of hard nuclear cataract, and it is more conducive to reducing the postoperative inflammatory degree, improving the tear film function and relieving the corneal edema degree.

Objective:To intestigate the clinical efficacy between modified Overlap anastomosis and traditional auxiliary incision anastomosis in laparoscopic total gastrectomy.Methods:The retrospective cohort study was conducted. The clinicopathological data of 115 patients with gastric cancer who were admitted to the Second Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University from January 2016 to December 2018 were collected. There were 62 males and 53 females, aged from 27 to 83 years, with a median age of 62 years. Of 115 patients, 51 patients undergoing totally laparoscopic total gastrectomy with modified Overlap anastomosis using linear stapler were divided into modified Overlap group and 64 patients undergoing laparoscopic assisted total gastrectomy with traditional auxiliary incision anastomosis using circular stapler were divided into traditional assisted group. Observation indicators: (1) surgical situations; (2) postoperative situations; (3) anastomotic complications; (4) follow-up. Follow-up using outpatient examination or telephone interview was conducted to detected tumor recurrence and survival of patients up to December 2019. Measurement data with normal distribution were represented as Mean± SD, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the t test. Count data were represented as absolute numbers or percentages, and comparison between groups was analyzed using the chi-square test or Fisher exact probability. Comparison of ranked data was analyzed using the rank sum test. Results:(1) Surgical situations: the operation time, time of esophagojejunostomy, volume of intraoperative blood loss, the number of lymph node dissected, length of proximal incisional margin and length of auxiliary incision of the modified Overlap group were (234.0±11.0)minutes, (29.4±2.1)minutes, (53±14)mL, 42±13, (2.0±0.3)cm and (5.1±0.4)cm, respectively. The above indicators of the traditional assisted group were (231.0±11.0)minutes, (29.2±2.2)minutes, (50±13)mL, 40±10, (2.2±0.4)cm and (8.2±0.4)cm, respectively. There was significant difference in the length of auxiliary incision between the two groups ( t=-43.098, P<0.05), and there was no significant difference in the operation time, time of esophagojejunostomy, volume of intraoperative blood loss, the number of lymph node dissected, length of proximal incisional margin between the two groups ( t=1.168, 0.460, 0.990, 1.127, -1.926, P>0.05). (2) Postoperative situations: cases with mild, moderate, severe pain (postoperative pain degree), time to first flatus, time to initial fluid diet intake, duration of postoperative hospital stay of the modified Overlap group were 40, 9, 2, (2.9±1.0)days, (4.8±2.2)days, (11.7±2.8)days, respectively. The above indicators of the traditional assisted group were 31, 27, 6, (3.9±1.4)days, (6.5±2.5)days, (13.0±3.1)days, respectively. There were significant differences in the above indicators between the two groups ( Z=-3.217, t= -4.344, -3.888, -2.261, P<0.05). (3) Anastomotic complications: cases with anastomotic leakage, cases with anastomotic bleeding, cases with anastomotic stenosis of the modified Overlap group were 1, 1, 0, respectively. The above indicators of the traditional assisted group were all 1. There was no significant difference in the above indicators between the two groups ( P>0.05). Cases with anastomotic leakage were cured after the treatment of enteral nutritional support through nasogastric catheterization, which were confirmed by gastroenterography. Cases with anastomotic bleeding were improved by active hemostatic therapy. Cases with anastomotic stenosis were improved after the symptomatic treatment of anti-inflammatory and anti-swelling. (4) Follow-up: 109 of the 115 patients were followed up. Forty-eight of 51 patients in the modified Overlap group were followed up for 15.0-45.0 months, with a median follow-up time of 33.5 months. Sixty-one of 64 patients in the traditional assisted group were followed up for 16.0-46.0 months, with a median follow-up time of 27.0 months. There was no tumor recurrence in the modified Overlap group. One patient in the traditional assisted group had tumor recurrence with liver metastasis and survived with tumor. There was no significant difference in tumor recurrence rate between the two groups ( P>0.05). There was no patient died during the follow-up. Conclusion:Compared with traditional auxiliary incision anastomosis, patients undergoing total laparoscopic total gastrectomy with modified Overlap anastomosis have small incision, good postoperative recovery.

Objective:To report the clinical outcome of finger replantation in Tibetan plateau.Methods:From August, 2018 to August, 2019, a total of 12 patients with 15 amputed digits treated in the Department of Emergency of Lasa People’s Hospital. All these cases were performed replantation without exclusion, including 4 cases of machine-mangled injury, 3 cases of steel rope crushing injury, 4 cases of electric saw injury, and 1 case of rotation avulsed injury. Replantations were performed under microscope by a fresh team of microsurgery surgeons. Antibiotics, anticoagulants and vasodilators were prescribed postoperatively. Application of oxygen inhalation through nasal tube and warm room temperature were advised. Tabaco and coffin were strictly forbidden postoperatively. All patients were regular followed-up after operation.Results:Twelve out of total 15 amputed digits successfully replanted, 3 digits turned to necrosis eventually. The survival rate was 80% (12/15). All cases were followed up for 4-16 months. According to the Functional Evaluation Standard of Replantation by the Hand Surgery Society of Chinese Medical Association, the results were excellent in 3 digits, good in 7 digits, fair in 1 digit, poor in 4 digits. The excellent and good rate was 66.6%(10/15).Conclusion:In this group, the survival rate and excellent and good rate of finger replantation in Tibetan plateau is unexpected high. Thus, it is deducible that digit amputation can be successfully replanted with good functional result when meticulous microsurgical techniques are applied, although the unique adverse factors of Tibetan plateau exist.

BACKGROUND:Valgus-varus constrained polyethylene insert is selected in strict accordance with the principle of“to obtain reliable stability using minimum restriction”. The stability of the prosthesis is elevated, but the restriction is not increased.
OBJECTIVE:To retrospectively analyze the application experience of constrained polyethylene insert in valgus and varus instability of primary total knee arthroplasty for older patients and to summarize the indications and clinical effects of this kind of implements.
METHODS:From March 2010 to March 2012, a total of 70 patients combined valgus and varus malfomation who accepted primary total knee arthroplasty were enrol ed in this study, including 56 varus patients (averagely 15°-30°) and 14 valgus patients (averagely 10°-20°). Constrained polyethylene insert was performed in 23 patients (25 knees) who stil had remaining unilateral valgus or varus<6 mm (18 patients were varus instability and 7 patients were valgus instability) when finished operation of standard osteotomy and soft tissue balancing. The bone cement knee prostheses in 23 cases were purchased from Smith&Nephew. The stem implant was not used in al cases. Cement or autografts were used in 11 valgus knees to fil the bone defects.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Patients were fol owed up for 2 years on average (18-42 mouths). The knee pain symptoms of al cases disappeared. The joint stability was obviously improved. The lower limb power lines were correct. The Knee Society Score scores were improved from an average of 39.4 points preoperation to an average of 88.5 points postoperation. Al cases did not need the protection of knee braces. The maximum degree of flexion was 110°(96°-130°). The satisfaction degree of 36-Item Short Form Health Survey was 98%. No dislocation or infection happened. Results indicated that constrained polyethylene insert could be applied in the cases of less than 6 mm valgus and varus instability when finished operation of standard osteotomy and soft tissue balancing in total knee arthroplasty for older patients. This kind of implements can preserve bone mass, simplify operational process and have good clinical outcome in a short period.
