Objective:To explore the application of 1 565 nm non-ablative fractional laser in the treatment of enlarged facial pores.Methods:It was a longitudinal cohort study. From September 2020 to September 2021, 68 patients with enlarged facial pores, including 5 male patients and 63 female patients, aged between 20 and 41 (29.3±4.6) years, were treated at the Department of Plastic and Reconstructive Surgery of Ningbo Sixth Hospital. They received 1 565 nm non-ablative fractional laser once every month for a total of 3 times. The number, score and percentile ranking of facial pores before and after treatment were recorded and compared by VISIA, and adverse reactions were observed.Results:The facial pores number before and after treatment were 890.75±312.61 and 834.37±289.94, the facial pores score were 25.76±1.08 and 24.81±8.59, respectively, indicating a statistically significant decrease in facial pores number and score compared to before treatment ( t=4.19, 2.65, P<0.05). The facial pores percentile ranking before and after treatment were 4.00% (2.00%, 7.00%) and 5.00% (2.25%, 8.00%), respectively, indicating a statistically significant increase in facial pores percentile ranking compared to before treatment ( Z=-3.35, P<0.05). Three patients had transient pigmentation, all of which were gradually faded within 1 month after the last treatment. One patient had a few inflammatory papules scattered on the cheek, which faded in 3 days by using erythromycin eye cream. Conclusions:The 1 565 nm non-ablative laser can effectively improve enlarged facial pores with light adverse reactions.

Objective:To investigate the main clinical characteristics, imaging features, diagnosis, and treatment of meningiomas initially manifesting as spontaneous intracranial hemorrhage.Methods:The clinical characteristics, imaging features, treatment, and follow-up data of 19 patients with meningiomas initially manifesting as spontaneous intracranial hemorrhage who received treatment in The First Affiliated Hospital of Shantou University Medical College from January 2011 to December 2020 were retrospectively analyzed.Results:Among the 19 patients, there were 6 males and 13 females, with an average age of (53 ± 14) years. The onset manifestations were sudden and severe headache and vomiting in 6 cases, progressive coma in 4 cases, and hemiplegia in 9 cases. Among the 19 patients, 15 patients showed irregular tumor shape and mixed hyperintense signal in CT, and 4 patients showed a homogeneous hyperintense signal. Eighteen patients showed peritumoral edema. Three patients showed intratumoral calcification. One patient showed an intratumoral fluid level. Fourteen patients showed isointense to hypointense signals on T1WI images and isointense to hyperintense signals on T 2WI images. Five patients showed mixed isointense and hyperintense signals on T 1WI images and mixed hypointense and hyperintense signals on T 2WI images. Heterogeneous enhancement was found in 18 patients, intratumoral cystic necrosis was found in 15 patients, and the meningeal tail sign was found in 16 patients. Preoperative imaging misdiagnosis occurred in 4 patients. Before surgery, all patients underwent surgery to resect the tumor and remove the hematoma. No patients died because of surgery. After surgery, muscle strength was improved compared with that before surgery. The average follow-up time was (46.5 ± 28.4) months. Tumor recurrence occurred in two patients. The Karnofsky Performance Scale score at the last follow-up, at discharge, and before surgery was (73.7 ± 3.4) points, (61.1 ± 5.5) points, and (49.5 ± 5.6) points, respectively ( F = 21.06, P < 0.01). The Karnofsky Performance Scale score at the last follow-up was significantly increased compared with that at discharge and before surgery ( F = 13.13, P < 0.01). Conclusion:Spontaneous hemorrhagic meningioma is rare and has a sudden onset. It is easily misdiagnosed before surgery. Skull CT, skull CT angiography, and enhanced magnetic resonance imaging examination in combination can increase the preoperative diagnosis rate. Early surgical resection of tumors and removal of hematoma can acquire good clinical efficacy.

Objective:To investigate the prenatal management for pathogenic copy number variation (CNV) by analyzing the parental origin of CNV and pregnancy outcomes in 56 pedigrees.Methods:This study retrospectively analyzed the information of patients who received interventional prenatal diagnosis and chromosomal microarray analysis (CMA) at Guangzhou Women and Children's Medical Center from January 2015 to December 2020. The cases with pathogenic CNV indicated by CMA and receiving parental CMA for further verification were finally enrolled. Clinical data including prenatal diagnostic indications, chromosomal distribution of the pathogenic fragments and fragment sizes were collected and analyzed using t test. All cases were followed up by telephone and record review. Results:Fifty-six cases were included in this study. Pathogenic CNV in 13 (23.2%, 13/56) fetuses were inherited from one parent (eight from mothers and five from fathers), and mainly located in chromosomes 22 (3/13), 17 (3/11), 16 (2/7), 1 (2/4), and X (3/6) with fragment sizes all less than 3 Mb. The fragment size of inherited pathogenic CNV was significantly smaller than that of de novo CNV [1.69 (1.36-2.22) vs 7.54 (2.11-12.30) Mb, t=3.47, P=0.001]. Among the 43 cases with de novo pathogenic CNV, seven (16.3%) were lost to follow up and 35 (97.2%) terminated the pregnancy. The other one with a 0.58 Mb microruplication at 16p11.2 indicated at 37 gestational weeks gave birth to a baby weighting 2 900 g at 39 gestational weeks and no abnormalities were reported during an eight-month telephone follow-up. Two out of the 13 cases with inherited pathogenic CNV were lost to follow up and six pregnancies were terminated. The other five pregnancies were continued and babies were delivered with no abnormalities during a median follow-up period of 13 (4-15) months. Conclusion:Pathogenic CNV alone should not be the indication for pregnancy termination.

Objective:To describe the treatment of the first carpometacarpal arthritis in Eaton Ⅱ, Ⅲ combining the hemi excision of trapezium with tendon ball and evaluate its clinical efficacy.Methods:Data of patients with the first carpometacarpal arthritis who were treated by hemi excision of trapezium and tamponade of the tendon ball from March 2013 to October 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. Twelve patients were all females with an average age of 55±2.8 years (range, 48-61 years). There were 3 cases of left thumbs and 9 cases of right. The study was only researched with primary osteoarthritis patients, preoperative imaging Eaton stages, including 8 cases inⅡstage, 4 cases in Ⅲ stage. Postoperative X-ray examination was performed, and the subsidence rate of the first metacarpal bone was evaluated according to height of arthroplasty. Preoperative and postoperative pain was evaluated according to visual analogue scales (VAS) score and DASH score. Preoperative and postoperative finger movement was evaluated according to the changes in preoperative and postoperative grip and pinch force.Results:The average follow-up period was 12±4.8 months (range, 6-17 months). The mean score of VAS after operation was 1.2±1.0 which was lower than 6.3±1.5 before operation ( t=13.4, P=0.0001); DASH score after operation was 26.2±9.6 which was lower than 48.9±13.0 before operation ( t=5.7, P=0.0001); Grip force after operation was 25.5±6.8 kg which was higher than 15.0±2.9 kg before operation ( t=7.3, P=0.0001); Pinch force after operation was 3.2±0.8 kg which was higher than 2.1±0.4 kg before operation ( t=3.6, P=0.0045), and all of these four above data has statistic difference. At the latest postoperative follow-up, the height index of arthroplasty was 0.299±0.022, and there was no significant change ( F=1.337, P=0.276) when compared with 0.306±0.021 before surgery and 0.313±0.024 after surgery. After the operation, 2 patients presented with incision redness and swelling and exudation. It was considered that local hematoma in the intra-articular operation could not be completely absorbed. After several dressing changes, the redness and swelling subsided and the exudation was controlled. Conclusion:Preserving the proximal joint surface of trapezium and tamponading tendon ball, could reduce the subsidence rate of the first metacarpal bone and alleviate the pain of the first carpometacarpal joint, thus may effectively improve the joint function. It has a significant effect on the treatment of Eaton Ⅱ,Ⅲ stage of the first carpometacarpal arthritis.
