Surgical operation is the main treatment of oral and maxillofacial tumors.Dysphagia is a common postoperative complication.Swal-lowing disorder can not only lead to mis-aspiration,malnutrition,aspiration pneumonia and other serious consequences,but also may cause psychological problems and social communication barriers,affecting the quality of life of the patients.At present,there is no systematic evalua-tion and rehabilitation management plan for the problem of swallowing disorder after oral and maxillofacial tumor surgery in China.Combining the characteristics of postoperative swallowing disorder in patients with oral and maxillofacial tumors,summarizing the clinical experience of ex-perts in the field of tumor and rehabilitation,reviewing and summarizing relevant literature at home and abroad,and through joint discussion and modification,a group of national experts reached this consensus including the core contents of the screening of swallowing disorders,the phased assessment of prognosis and complications,and the implementation plan of comprehensive management such as nutrition management,respiratory management,swallowing function recovery,psychology and nursing during rehabilitation treatment,in order to improve the evalua-tion and rehabilitation of swallowing disorder after oral and maxillofacial tumor surgery in clinic.

Objective To explore the effect of a phased rehabilitation training programme to relieve shoulder dys-function in patients after neck dissection and to provide effective solutions for postoperative shoulder joint function recov-ery of patients.Methods This study has been reviewed and approved by the Ethics Committee,and informed consent has been obtained from patients.A phased rehabilitaiton training programme for the shoulder after neck dessection was developed through literature review and discussion,and 70 eligible patients from Hospital of Stomatology,Sun Yat-sen University from December 2020 to April 2021 were selected and randomly divided into the test group and control group(35 patients in each group).The control group underwent motor rehabilitation training from 6 weeks postoperative to 1 year after surgery,such as shoulder mobility and coordination training and small range of motion training of the neck,while the test group took part in a rehabilitation training program that included familiarization maneuver training,protective rehabilitation,exercise rehabilitation,and resistance training in the following four stages:preoperative,postop-erative general anesthesia and awake until the removal of stitches,the removal of stitches until 6 weeks after surgery,and 6 weeks after surgery until 1 year after surgery.The frequency of training in both groups was at least 3 days per week,and the length of each training session was 10-15 min.The intensity of exercise was 2-3 points on the Borg Conscious Ex-ercise Intensity Scale(i.e.,mild-to-moderate tachypnea or fatigue).The neck dissection injury index(NDII)was used to evaluate the quality of life related to shoulder joint function at four time points:preoperative,postoperative 3 months,postoperative 6 months,and postoperative 12 months.The higher the score,the better the quality of life.Results 28 cases in the test group and 32 cases in the control group completed a one-year follow-up.At 3 and 6 months postopera-tive,the NDII of the test group was significantly higher than that of the control group[3 months postoperative:test group(93.48±9.36)vs.control group(80.00±11.34)(P＜0.001),6 months postoperative:test group(98.21±4.76)vs.control group(90.70±9.12)(P＜0.001)];12 months after surgery,the NDII of the test group(97.23±4.88)was still higher than that of the control group(96.33±4.49),but the difference was not statistically significant(P=0.458).The difference in NDII scores among subjects at 3,6,and 12 months after surgery was statistically significant in each group(P＜0.001).Conclusion The application of the phased rehabilitation training method in neck dissection patients has a feasibility and could improve the quality of life of patients'shoulder joint function within 6 months after surgery.

Tooth extraction is a common and widely employed therapeutic procedure in oral and maxillofacial surgery.Minimally invasive tooth extraction can reduce both physical and psychological trauma to the patients,and is widely recommended as a first-line clinical treatment.But currently no guidelines or consensus has been available to provide a systematic introduction of minimally invasive tooth extraction to guide the clinical practices.To address this issue,this consensus,based on a comprehensive literature review and clinical experiences of experts,systematically summarizes the indications,target patients,and contraindications of minimally invasive tooth extraction,the overall workflow of this procedure(preoperative preparation,surgical steps,postoperative management,postoperative instructions,medications,and follow-up),and its common postoperative complications to provide a comprehensive guidance for clinical application of this technique.

Objective To evaluate the correlation between 3D morphological parameters of aneurysms based on the computer-assisted semi-automated measurement and the risk of aneurysm rupture.Methods From October 2019 to October 2022,patients with ruptured multiple aneurysms admitted to the Department of Neurosurgery of Xuanwu Hospital,Capital Medical University were retrospectively included.Aneurysmal morphological parameters(including aneurysmal diameter,maximum diameter,width,neck width,volume,flow angle,parental artery diameter,surface area,wave index and non-spherical index)were measured by computer-assisted semi-automated measurement methods.The length-to-width ratio,wide-to-neck ratio,aspect ratio and size ratio were calculated,and the aneurysm location information was recorded.The ruptured aneurysms in multiple aneurysms were included in the ruptured group,and the remaining aneurysms were included in the unruptured group.Uni variable analysis and binary Logistic analysis were used to evaluate the differences in morphological parameters and location information between the ruptured and unruptured groups.Results All 56 patients with multiple ruptured aneurysms and a total of 126aneurysms were included in the group for analysis.Concerning morphology,including diameter＞5 mm(51.8％[29/56]vs.15.7％[11/70],P＜0.01),maximum diameter＞6mm(57.1％[32/56]vs.25.7％[18/70],P＜0.01),flow angle＞107°(57.1％[32/56]vs.35.7％[25/70],P=0.016),wide-to-neck ratio＞1.1(50.0％[28/56]vs.30.0％[21/70],P=0.022),aspect ratio＞1.1(46.4％[26/56]vs.25.7％[18/70],P=0.015)and size ratio＞1.9(57.1％[32/56]vs.10.0％[7/70],P＜0.01),there was significant difference between the ruptured and unruptured group;Concerning locations,aneurysms are mainly located in the posterior communicating segment of the internal carotid artery(39.3％[22/56])and the middle cerebral artery(23.2％[13/56])in ruptured group,while in the middle cerebral artery(28.6％[20/70])and the non-posterior communicating segment of internal carotid artery(27.1％[19/70])in unruptured group,and there was significant difference in distribution of aneurysm locations(P=0.003).Multivariate Logistic regression analysis showed that size ratio＞1.9 was an independent risk factor for aneurysm rupture(OR,11.62,95％CI 2.40-56.15;P=0.002).Concerning locations,posterior communicating artery aneurysms had a significantly higher risk of rupture compared with the non-posterior communicating segment of internal carotid artery(OR,19.25,95％CI 2.19-169.51;P=0.008).Conclusion For multiple intracranial aneurysms,the size ratio of the three-dimensional morphological parameters of aneurysms＞1.9 is an independent risk factor for aneurysm rupture,and the rupture risk of posterior communicating artery aneurysms is significantly higher than that of non-posterior communicating segment of internal carotid artery.

Neck dissection(ND)is one of the main treatment methods for oral and maxillofacial malignancies.Although ND type is in con-stant improvement,but intraoperative peal-pull-push injury of the accessory nerve,muscle,muscle membrane,fascia and ligament induced shoulder syndrome(SS)is still a common postoperative complication,combined with the influence of radiochemotherapy,not only can cause pain,stiffness,numbness,limited dysfunction of shoulder neck and arm,but also may have serious impact on patient's life quality and phys-ical and mental health.At present,there is still a lack of a systematic evaluation and rehabilitation management program for postoperative SS of oral and maxillofacial malignant tumors.Based on the previous clinical practice and the current available evidence,refer to the relevant lit-erature at home and abroad,the experts in the field of maxillofacial tumor surgery and rehabilitation were invited to discuss,modify and reach a consenusus on the etiology,assessment diagnosis,differential diagnosis,rehabilitation strategy and prevention of SS,in order to provide clinical reference.

Objective:To analyze and predict the transmission risk of visceral leishmaniasis in Gansu Province based on an ecological niche model, providing a basis for the development of precise prevention and control measures and epidemic surveillance.Methods:The information of reported cases of visceral leishmaniasis in Gansu Province from 2015 to 2021 were collected from the National Infectious Disease Reporting Information Management System, and the longitude and latitude coordinates of the distribution points of cases and the data of 19 climate variables, 5 geographical variables and 2 socio-economic variables within the region were obtained. Based on an ecological niche model, a model for predicting the transmission risk of visceral leishmaniasis was constructed using the maximum entropy algorithm (MaxEnt), and its performance was evaluated by the area under the receiver operating characteristic curve (AUC). Then the importance of each environmental variable of the model was evaluated, and the distribution area of visceral leishmaniasis transmission risk in Gansu Province was predicted.Results:A total of 368 cases of visceral leishmaniasis were reported in Gansu Province from 2015 to 2021, of which 89.13% (328/368) were from Longnan City and Gannan Tibetan Autonomous Prefecture (Gannan Prefecture). The number of cases peaked in 2017 (79 cases, 21.47%). The model had high prediction accuracy (AUC = 0.985). The results of model analysis showed that the important climate variable affecting the distribution of visceral leishmaniasis was the average temperature in the coldest quarter (contribution value of 3.1), the geographical variables were land use type (contribution value of 52.6) and vegetation cover type (contribution value of 8.5), and the socio-economic variable was population size (contribution value of 14.3). The distribution results of transmission risk showed that high, medium and low risk areas exhibited a gradual transition from the southern part to the northwest part of Gansu Province. The high risk areas were mainly located in the central and southern parts of Longnan City and the southern part of Gannan Prefecture, accounting for 0.18% of the total area of the province. Medium and low risk areas accounted for 0.48% and 2.47% of the total area of the province, respectively; and areas with no risk accounted for 96.87%.Conclusions:The ecological niche model predicts that the spread of visceral leishmaniasis in Gansu Province is characterized by point like dispersion and local high aggregation distribution. It is necessary to strengthen monitoring and prevention and control of high-risk areas such as Longnan City and Gannan Prefecture.

Objective To investigate the clinical effect of three-dimensional laparoscopic splenectomy for massive splenomegaly secondary to liver cirrhosis.Methods The clinical data of 67 patients who underwent laparoscopic splenectomy for massive splenomegaly at Henan Province People's Hospital from Jan 2013 to Dec 2018 were collected.Results Operation time,volume of intraoperative blood loss and blood transfusion,number of patients with intraoperative blood transfusion,and conversion to laparotomy were in favor of 3D group,with statistically differences (t =12.900,18.255,19.711,x2 =10.747,0.685,P ＜ 0.05).Postoperative intraabdominal bleeding,pancreatic fistula,and postoperative hospital stay in 2D group were more than those in 3D group,with statistically differences (x2 =3.511,4.527,t =12.969,P ＜ 0.05).All patients were followed up for 5 to 60 months.Portal thrombosis occurred in 6 patients vs 5 patients,respectively (x2 =0.028,P ＞ 0.05) and resolved with oral coumarin.Conclusions Three-dimensional laparoscopic splenectomy can provide more realistic visual effects of surgical procedures and has an obvious advantage in laparoscopic splenectomy for massive splenomegaly secondary to liver cirrhosis.

Objective To evaluate the effects of laparoscopic splenectomy and esophagogastric devascularization(LSPD) vs.open procedure(OSPD) on stress and immune function in patients with portal hypertension due to cirrhosis.Methods From June 2015 to June 2017 a total of 66 patients underwent LSPD or OSPD procedures.Results Plasma cortisol concentration in the LSPD group was lower than that in the OSPD group (Fgroup =18.85,P =0.020).Cortisol concentration in the two groups increased firstly and then decreased with time extension (Ftime =532.08,P =0.000).The level of CD3 +,CD4 +,CD4 +/CD8 + in LSPD group was higher than that in OSPD group,and the level of CD8 + was lower than that in OSPD group (Fgroup =3.55,21.47,154.84,64.29,P ＜ 0.05),the levels of CD3 +,CD4 + and CD4 +/CD8 + in the two groups first decreased and then increased with the extension of time,and the levels of CD8 + increased firstly and then decreased (Ftime =199.22,298.48,864.33,510.23,P ＜ 0.05),the increase range of CD3 +,CD4 +,and CD4 +/CD8 + in LSED group was higher than that in OSPD group (Finteraction =19.27,18.21,79.55,35.21,P ＜ 0.05);there was no statistical significance in the complications such as:rebleeding,thrombosis and splenic fever in the two groups (x2 =0.05,0.67,0.07,0.16,P=0.829,0.413,0.789,0.693).But the postoperative chest/cavity effusion and fever (＞ 38.0 ℃,and ＞ 3 days) is OSPD group is higher than in the LSPD group(x2 =5.49,6.68,P =0.019,0.010).Conclusion LSPD effectively reduces postoperative stress,protects immune function,decreases postoperative pleural and abdominal effusion and fever.
