Objective To investigate short-term clinical efficacy of autologous leukocyte-poor platelet-rich plasma(LP-PRP)treatment of knee osteoarthritis(KO A).Methods 85 cases of patients with Keligren Lawrence grade Ⅰ-Ⅲ knee os-teoarthritis in Peking University First Hospital Taiyuan Hospital(Taiyuan Central Hospital)from 2022 to 2023 were collect-ed for autologous LP-PRP collection and quality assessment using a blood component separator,and all patients were treated with autologous LP-PRP.The degree and function of knee pain were assessed by visual analog scale(VAS)and knee arthri-tis index scale(WOMAC)at 1,3 and 6 months after injection.Knee MRI was performed after 6 months of treatment,and the MRI imaging changes before and after treatment were compared.Different influencing factors in the treatment results were grouped and analyzed,mainly including platelet concentration in LP-PRP and K-L grading of knee joint.According to the platelet concentration in LP-PRP,it was divided into three grades,which are low concentration[(＜800)×109/L],medium concentration[(800-1 000)×109/L],and high concentration[(＞1 000)× 109/L];According to the K-L grade of the knee joint,the severity of knee osteoarthritis was divided into three grades:Ⅰ、Ⅱ、Ⅲ.Results The VAS and WOMAC scores at 1,3 and 6 months after LP-PRP treatment were significantly lower than those before treatment,and the difference was sta-tistically significant(P＜0.05).There was a statistically significant difference in the therapeutic effect of different levels of platelet concentration,and when the platelet concentration was more than 1 000×109/L,the significant effect was the most obvious(P＜0.05).The therapeutic effect of different levels of platelet concentration was statistically significant(P＜0.05).MRI showed that the articular cartilage signal was significantly improved after treatment.Conclusion Autologous LP-PRP injection into knee cavity for the treatment of KO A has a good short-term clinical effect in relieving knee pain.

Objective:To further understand the current status of diagnosis and treatment of endometriosis in China, the implementation of guideline in different levels of hospitals, and the need for continuing education in endometriosis among primary doctors.Methods:The survey was conducted in the form of convenience sampling questionnaire among the Wechat public platform. The doctors were free to participate in the investigation without any reward. All questions answered were assessed as valid questionnaire. The datas were collected on the questionnaire network platform and analyzed by SPSS 19.0.Results:Totally 1 494 valid questionnaires were collected in this survey. 60.17% (899/1 494) of them were from tertiary hospital, and 32.60% (487/1 494) were from grade two hospital. Only the hospitals where 9.97% (149/1 494) participants based opened the specialist clinic for endometriosis. 70.35% (1 051/1 494) of participants said they had read the second edition of guideline for the diagnosis and treatment of endometriosis which published in 2015. The American Society for Reproductive Medicine (ASRM) staging system was adopted in the clinical practices of only 25.03% (374/1 494) participants. And 18.74% (280/1 494) participants used the endometriosis fertility index (EFI) scoring during the laparoscopic surgery for endometriosis with infertility. 45.18% (675/1 494) of participants said they had not attended any academic conference on endometriosis in the past six months. 64.46% (963/1 494) of the participants believed their diagnosis and treatment in practice should be improved and standardized. 87.15% (1 302/1 494) of the participants expressed the hope that more conferences or workshops on endometriosis would be held.Conclusions:At presents, the diagnosis and treatment of endometriosis in China has been greatly improved, but the implementation of guidelines and the new concept is still a long-term job. The specialist clinic are held only in a few hospitals. It’s the expectation and voice of primary doctors to the association to organize the more academic congresses on endometriosis.

Objective: To explore the effect of applying the digital technology in the reconstruction of congenital microtia. Methods: CT data of 40 patients with congenital microtia were collected by using software (Mimics 17.01) and three-dimensional printing. And the three-dimensional reconstruction of costal cartilage and ear model was performed. The effectiveness and feasibility of the digital assisted technology in the reconstruction of congenital microtia could be established, by contrasting the pre-three-dimensional reconstruction and the morphology of the costal cartilage harvested during surgery and comparing the imaging data of the auricles before and after surgery. Results: 40 patients were satisfied with the appearance of the auricle after the restoration. The rib cartilage obtained during the operation was consistent with the preoperative data simulation. The trauma of the operation and the operation time were reduced. There was no statistically significant difference between both auricle length and width for the reconstructed ear and those of the normal ear, auricle length mean (62.10±6.82)mm vs (60.31±6.18)mm, auricle width mean (26.10±2.26)mm vs (25.40±2.32)mm, P>0.05, respectively. Conclusions The application of digital assisted technique in congenital microtia correction could accurately display the tissue structure of the operation area, which was helpful to preoperative design, reduce intraoperative injury and achieve satisfactory surgical result .

Objective: The incidence of complications after skin soft tissue expansion is relatively high. Occurrence of infection often means the expander has to be taken out ahead of schedule. In this retrospective study, we wanted to identify independent risk factors of infection after skin soft tissue expansion, which could be helpful to guide clinical work. Methods: Demographic information of patients who underwent the skin soft tissue expansion at the department of plastic surgery of Xijing Hospital from January 2003 to December 2012 was collected. Univariate associations with infection were measured by logistic regression and represented as odds ratios. The p-value less than 0.1 was identified the potential risk factor. Multivariate logistic regression was used to calculate odds ratios for risk factors of infection. Independent risk factors were identified if the p-value was less than 0.05. Results: A total of 3382 implants were included in the study. The overall infection rate of tissue expansion was 5.2% in 177 implants. The result of multivariate logistic regression showed that preoperative white blood cell count, age, numbers of expander implanted and volume of expander were independent risk factors of infection. Conclusions Independent risk factors of infection were preoperative white blood cell count, age, numbers of expander implanted and volume of expander. The lower preoperative white blood cell count, age more than 18 years old, more numbers of expander implanted and the bigger volume of the expander, the higher possibility of complications occurred. The result was helpful to guide clinical work and reduce the incidence of infection.

Objective: To investigate the clinical efficacy and safety profile of hyaluronic acid dermal filler(Restylane®) in treating nasolabial folds in Chinese population. Methods: 103 subjects in this study were recruited from five Chinese clinical trial centers between July 2014 and December 2015. Subjects were treated with hyaluronic acid dermal filler in correcting nasolabial folds and an optional re-treatment was performed after 12 months according to the subjects′wishes. The improved of nasolabial folds was evaluated by the change of severity (wrinkle severity rating scale, WSRS) and aesthetic improvement (global aesthetic improvement scale, GAIS). Satisfaction of subjects on treatment was evaluated using subject satisfaction questionnaires (SSQ). Safety indicators such as pain, skin and soft tissue presentation at the injection site were continuously evaluated throughout the whole treatment process. Results: Significant improvement in scores of WSRS and GAIS of all subjects was observed after treatment. Nine months after treatment, the scores of WSRS in 80 subjects (77.7%) and GAIS in 96 subjects (93.2%) were still improved. The 68 subjects (95.8%) received re-treatment after 12 months gained further improvement in nasolabial folds. Most adverse events were mild or moderate (transient/reversible local manifestations) and all resolved before study end, no severe adverse event related to products observed. Conclusions Hyaluronic acid dermal filler is effective and safe in treatment of nasolabial folds in Chinese population and the effect can last up to 12 months.

Objective To review the clinical features of the patients received massive transfusion (MT) in plastic surgery department.Methods Ten cases were reviewed.The reason of massive transfusion,the type and dosage of transfusion,the reaction of patients were included.For all the patients,consultation of related department preoperatively was necessary.Based on the through and detailed analysis of the patients' condition,necessary blood product should be prepared ahead of operation.During the therapy,adjustment of treatment plan was made from time to time,according to the patient's condition.Therefore efficient and prompt therapeutic result was achieved.Results In all the 10 MT cases suffered from acute blood loss,2 of them were in hemorrhagic shock before administration.Coagulation disorders happened in 2 patients,and recovered after appropriate treatment.RBC,which was 58.3％ of total amount of transfusion,used most commonly;the second was fresh frozen plasma (FFP),which was 38.6％ according to the total amount.All the patients had satisfactory recovery,without hemolysis or any other functional disorder.Conclusions For MT patients in the Department of Plastic Surgery,the main proposes are to restore and maintain an effective circulatory blood volume,while preventing the coagulation disorder.Also,detailed analysis,through consultation and timely adjustment are of great importance for the MT patients.It is also the essential of an effective perioperative management.

Objective: To explore procedure of the one-stage surgery with prolonged tissue expansion in microtia reconstruction and treatment of related complications. Methods: 211 patients had undergone the one-stage surgery of microtia reconstruction with prolonged tissue expansion in Department of Aesthetic Plastic and Maxillofacial Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Xi′an Jiaotong University from June 2016 to June 2017. A retrospective study of these data was conducted for standardization of surgical procedure, treatment of postoperative complications, improvement of the existing technology. Results: 211 patients had finished the follow-up, of which 10 had complications. The complications included 4 cases of hematomas, 3 cases of expander exposures, 2 infections, and disorder on blood supply of the flap with severe headache in 1 case. We removed hematoma by washing and drainage, repositioned the exposed expander by standard debridement surgery again, controlled infection by systemic or topical application of effective antibiotics, andrelieved severe headache by reducing injection volume. After these treatments, all the patients were able to undergo the next stage surgery of ear reconstruction. Conclusions Emphasizing standardization of surgical procedure, appropriate treatment of postoperative complications and improvement of tissue expansion was beneficial for performing the next stage surgery of ear reconstruction.

The anterior chest is an excellent donor site for cervicofacial reconstruction. Studies of chest flaps began as early as 1988 in xijing Hspital. We created a new flap called the subclavicular flap, which was pedicled by the thoracic branch of supraclavicular artery. This flap shares the similar vascular territory of the deltopectoral flap and is mainly used for reconstruction of cervicofacial wounds. The supraclavicular flap has the same vessel origin of supraclavicular flap but is pedicled by the different branch, the deltoid branch. Its vascular territory locates on the shoulder region. Therefore, many differences and relations exist between the two flaps and there are also some disputes. To enhance the understanding of the two flaps, presenting a summary on the two flaps, especially for their relations and differences.

Objective: To investigate the feasibility of one-stage thinning of latissimus dorsi muscle, rectus abdominis muscle and gracilis flap in reconstruction of the hand and foot defects. Methods: From June 2009 to April 2015, 24 free muscle flaps were thinned during transfer operation by removing their superficial muscle layers on the basis of their vessel pedicles running in the deep surface of flaps. The surface of the muscle flaps were covered by split-thickness skin grafts. There were 16 latissimus dorsi muscle flaps, 4 gracilis flaps and 4 rectus abdominis muscle flaps. Flap size ranged from 6 cm×4 cm to 20 cm×12 cm. Thinned muscle flaps were used to resurface 7 hand defects and 17 foot defects. Results: All muscle flaps survived the thinning procedures without any circulation problems except for one case which suffered total flap necrosis due to venous thrombosis. Skins grafts on muscle flaps also took well. One patient experienced partial skin loss. Two patients underwent secondary debridement and thinning procedure for infection and bulkiness. During the 0.3-20 months follow-up, the contour of thinned muscle flaps matched well with the recipient areas. Reconstructed feet are able to wear regular shoes. Conclusions Intraoperative immediate thinning of free muscle flaps can be safely accomplished during the primary reconstruction procedure. This procedure prevents the limitations of muscle flap bulkiness and may provide an alternative for surface coverage.

OBJECTIVE:To compare the efficacy and safety of ferrous succinate or Shengxuening in the adjuvant treatment of renal anemia in patients with diabetic nephropathy peritoneal dialysis (CAPD). METHODS:64 diatetic nephropathy CAPD pa-tients with renal anemia were randomly divided into observation group (32 cases) and control group (32 cases). All patients re-ceived subcutaneous injection of insulin for blood glucose control (adjusted the insulin dosage based on fasting blood glucose lev-els),hypertension patients actively controlled blood pressure,corrected acid-base and electrolyte balance disorders,orally received fo-lic acid and vitamin B12,ambulant CAPD,then rhEPO was subcutaneously injected with initial dose of 100-150 U/(kg·week) for 2-3 times and other conventional treatment. Based on it,observation group received 1 g of Shengxuening tablet,3 times a day;control group received 0.2 g Ferrous succinate tablet,3 times a day. The treatment course for both groups was 16 weeks. The rhEPO dose was monthly adjusted to make Hb 100-120 g/L. Clinical efficacy,serum iron,serum ferritin,total iron binding capacity,transfer-rin saturation before and after treatment,Hb,Hct,hs-CRP,rhEPO dose before treatment and after 4,8,12 and 16 weeks of treat-ment,and the incidence of adverse reactions in 2 groups were observed. RESULTS:There was no significant difference in the total effective rate between 2 groups (P>0.05). After treatment,serumiron,total iron binding capacity,transferrin saturation,Hb and Hct in 2 groups were significantly higher than before,and it gradually increased by treatment time,serum ferritin,hs-CRP was sig-nificantly lower than before,and it gradually decreased by treatment time,the differences were statistically significant(P<0.05);but there was no significant difference between 2 groups(P>0.05). The rhRPO dose in observation group 8,16 and 16 weeks af-ter treatment and in control group 8 weeks after treatment were significantly lower than 4 weeks after treatment,and 12 and 16 weeks after treatment in observation group were lower than control group,the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). The incidence of adverse reactions in observation group was significantly lower than control group,the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). CONCLUSIONS:Based on conventional treatment,both ferrous succinate and Shengxuening show good ef-ficacy in the adjuvant treatment of renal anemia with diabetic nephropathy CAPD,both can improve anemia and iron metabolism, while Shengxuening is superior to ferrous succinate in terms of improving microinflammatory state and reducing rhEPO dose,with better safety.
