In this study, we are going to assess the correlation of pre-operative MRI measurement of Hamstring tendons with the intra-operative ACL graft. Thus, it may help surgeons to anticipate the needs for graft augmentation should the final graft size be smaller than expected. Methods: We retrospectively re-viewed 41 cases of ACL reconstructions in which MRI were done pre-operatively, in Hospital Pakar Sultanah Fatimah (HPSF), Muar between January 2019 until December 2022. MRI measurements of Hamstring tendon (semitendinosus: ST, and gracilis) were done by a radiologist, and the in-tra-operative notes were reviewed for the final graft size. Pearson’s correlation coefficients were calculated to determine the relationship between graft size and tendon cross-sectional area. The intraclass correlation (ICC) by using two-way mixed model with type consistency, the reliability based on average measure was 0.41 (95% CI: ?0.10, 0.69). A p-value < 0.05 was considered sig-nificant. Results: Of 105 patients with primary ACL reconstruction done be-tween January 2019 to December 2022, only 41 patients were included in this study. There was fair correlation (p = 0.048) between pre-operative MRI measurement and the graft diameter intra-operatively. The mean of 17.0 mm of combined diameter of ST and gracilis tendon in MRI may results in graft diameter of 8.3 mm. There was also positive correlation between patients’ height and the intra-operative graft size. Conclusion: These results showed good correlation between pre-operative MRI measurement of Hamstring ten-don size with the intra-operative graft size, hence it is a reliable tool to predict the Hamstring autograft size in ACL reconstruction.展开更多

Laparoscopy is not well vulgarised in our settings. Objective: The main objective was to compare the surgical and post-operative outcomes of laparoscopic versus abdominal myomectomy. Methods: We performed a comparative analytical cross sectional study from 1st January 2016 to 31st March 2018 consisted of two groups: group 1 of women who underwent laparoscopic myomectomy (LM) and group 2 of women who underwent abdominal myomectomy (AM). The data collected was entered in Epi Info 7.2 version and exported to IBM SPSS Statistics version 22 for analysis. We used alpha error margin of 5% and confidence interval of 95%. Results: We enrolled 50 cases of myomectomy consisted of 33 (66.0%) files for AM and 17 (34.0%) files for LM. The clinical presentation of fibroid was similar in both groups. The main operation time (H) was (1.27 ± 0.13) for laparoscopy which is much less than (2.05 ± 0.07) for laparotomy group (p = 0.006). In AM group we had 04 post-operatory complications against zero complications in LM group but the difference was not statistically significant (p = 0.387). In the second look laparoscopy, the types of adhesions were not statistically significant (p = 0.471). Conclusion: Laparoscopic offers advantages compared to abdominal myomectomy.展开更多

Many studies using DTI have reported on injury of the fornix in patients with brain injury (Nakayama et al., 2006; Sugiyama et al., 2007; Wang et al., 2008; Chang et al., 2010). However, only a few studies on recov- ery of an injured fornix in patients with brain injury, including traumatic brain injury and stroke, have been reported (Yeo et al., 2011; Yeo and Jang, 2013a, b). In this study, using follow up DTT images, we reported on a patient who showed recovery of injured fornical crura following a neurosurgical operation for a brain tumor.展开更多

Method: We select 126 patients who were diagnosed celiac disease in our hospital between May 2015 and April 2016 as our research subjects. All of these patients have indications for laparoscopic surgery, and we divide them into two groups randomly (observation and control group). While the observation group is treated by 3D laparoscopic operation system, and the control group is treated by 2D laparoscopic system. During the treatment ,we observe the operation time, intra-operative bleeding and hospitalization time between the two different methods. Result: During the operation, the operation time of observation is (135.5±23.84) minutes and intra-operative bleeding time is (130.2±20. 11) milliliters, which both them are significantly lower than control group (163.8±25.22)min, (146.3±27.42)ml. This difference is statistically significant (P 〈0.05). On the other hand, there is no obvious difference between observation and conlrol about indwelling catheter time, postoperative hospitalization time and postoperative exhaust time. For the observation, the datum were (2.3±0.31) d, (8.1±1. 32) d, (3.2±0.58) d and they were no statistical significance. Conclusion: Compared with traditional laparoscopic surgery, the image of 3D laparoscopic surgery is more clear and stereoscopic. What's more, operators can have a good command of it easily to shorten operation time, which avoid surgery vascular damage and reduce bleeding amounts to some extent. It is a good assistant for clinical use.展开更多

However, post-operation complications such as Surgical Site Infection (SSI) still give the surgeon with a big challenge. This article is going to study the risk factor that causes the lumbar SSI by reviewing all the articles that can be assessed through PubMed, websites of science and other internet data base. Numerous articles have stated different reported prevalence rates of 0.7% to 16% for surgical site infection. This article will document the most common and significant risk factors for SSI. At last, we suggest that there should be preoperative patient screening and postoperative internal environment maintenance, this will be the best way to reduce postoperative SSI rate or prevent SSI from happening.展开更多

文摘The operating room is a unique environment where surgery exposes patients to non-physiological changes that can compromise lung mechanics.Therefore,raising clinicians’awareness of the potential risk of ventilator-induced lung injury(VILI)is mandatory.Driving pressure is a useful tool for reducing lung complications in patients with acute respiratory distress syndrome and those undergoing elective surgery.Driving pressure has been most extensively studied in the context of single-lung ventilation during thoracic surgery.However,the awareness of association of VILI risk and patient positioning(prone,beach-chair,parkbench)and type of surgery must be raised.
文摘Venipuncture is an indispensable nursing procedure for intravenous infusion,but it is also an invasive procedure that is highly resisted by hospitalised children due to pain or fear.Non-pharmacological interventions are widely used in clinical practice due to their low cost,low risk and simplicity.This article provides a review with the aim of providing a reference for the selection of optimal analgesic interventions in the future.
文摘BACKGROUND Endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD)is a treatment for early gastric cancer with the advantages of small invasion,fewer complications,and a low local recurrence rate.However,there is a high risk of complications such as bleeding and perforation,and the operation time is also longer.ESD operation time is closely related to bleeding and perforation.AIM To investigate the influencing factors associated with ESD operation time and postoperative delayed hemorrhage to provide a reference for early planning,early identification,and prevention of complications.METHODS We conducted a retrospective study based on the clinical data of 520 patients with early gastric cancer in the Second Affiliated Hospital of Hainan Medical University from January 2019 to December 2021.The baseline data,clinical features,and endoscopic and pathological characteristics of patients were collected.The multivariate linear regression model was used to investigate the influencing factors of ESD operation time.Logistic regression analysis was carried out to evaluate the influencing factors of postoperative delayed hemorrhage.RESULTS The multivariate analysis of ESD operation time showed that the maximum lesion diameter could affect 8.815%of ESD operation time when other influencing factors remained unchanged.The operation time increased by 3.766%or 10.247%if the lesion was mixed or concave.The operation time increased by 4.417%if combined with an ulcer or scar.The operation time increased by 3.692%if combined with perforation.If infiltrated into the submucosa,it increased by 2.536%.Multivariate analysis of delayed hemorrhage after ESD showed that the maximum diameter of the lesion,lesion morphology,and ESD operation time were independent influencing factors for delayed hemorrhage after ESD.Patients with lesion≥3.0 cm(OR=3.785,95%CI:1.165-4.277),lesion morphology-concave(OR=10.985,95%CI:2.133-35.381),and ESD operation time≥60 min(OR=2.958,95%CI:1.117-3.526)were prone to delayed hemorrhage after ESD.CONCLUSION If the maximum diameter of the lesion in patients with early gastric cancer is≥3.0 cm,and the shape of the lesion is concave,or accompanied by an ulcer or scar,combined with perforation,and infiltrates into the submucosa,the ESD operation will take a longer time.When the maximum diameter of the lesion is≥3.0 cm,the shape of the lesion is concave in patients and the operation time of ESD takes longer time,the risk of delayed hemorrhage after ESD is higher.
文摘Background: The size of Hamstring autograft of less than 8.0 mm in ACL re-construction is one of the key factors that may contribute to the failure of the graft. In this study, we are going to assess the correlation of pre-operative MRI measurement of Hamstring tendons with the intra-operative ACL graft. Thus, it may help surgeons to anticipate the needs for graft augmentation should the final graft size be smaller than expected. Methods: We retrospectively re-viewed 41 cases of ACL reconstructions in which MRI were done pre-operatively, in Hospital Pakar Sultanah Fatimah (HPSF), Muar between January 2019 until December 2022. MRI measurements of Hamstring tendon (semitendinosus: ST, and gracilis) were done by a radiologist, and the in-tra-operative notes were reviewed for the final graft size. Pearson’s correlation coefficients were calculated to determine the relationship between graft size and tendon cross-sectional area. The intraclass correlation (ICC) by using two-way mixed model with type consistency, the reliability based on average measure was 0.41 (95% CI: ?0.10, 0.69). A p-value < 0.05 was considered sig-nificant. Results: Of 105 patients with primary ACL reconstruction done be-tween January 2019 to December 2022, only 41 patients were included in this study. There was fair correlation (p = 0.048) between pre-operative MRI measurement and the graft diameter intra-operatively. The mean of 17.0 mm of combined diameter of ST and gracilis tendon in MRI may results in graft diameter of 8.3 mm. There was also positive correlation between patients’ height and the intra-operative graft size. Conclusion: These results showed good correlation between pre-operative MRI measurement of Hamstring ten-don size with the intra-operative graft size, hence it is a reliable tool to predict the Hamstring autograft size in ACL reconstruction.

文摘BACKGROUND Whether operation is superior to non-operation for humeral shaft fracture remains debatable.We hypothesized that operation could decrease the nonunion and reintervention rates and increase the functional outcomes.AIM To compare the clinical efficacy between operative and nonoperative approaches for humeral shaft fractures.METHODS We searched the PubMed,Web of Science,ScienceDirect,and Cochrane databases from 1990 to December 2023 for clinical trials and cohort studies comparing the effects of operative and conservative methods on humeral shaft fractures.Two investigators independently extracted data from the eligible studies,and the other two assessed the methodological quality of each study.The quality of the included studies was assessed using the Cochrane risk bias or Newcastle-Ottawa Scale.The nonunion,reintervention and the overall complications and functional scores were pooled and analyzed using Review Manager software(version 5.3).RESULTS A total of four randomized control trials and 13 cohort studies were included,with 1285 and 1346 patients in the operative and nonoperative groups,respectively.Patients in the operative group were treated with a plate or nail,whereas those in the conservative group were managed with splint or functional bracing.Four studies were assessed as having a high risk of bias,and the other 13 were of a low risk of bias according to the Newcastle-Ottawa Scale or Cochrane risk bias tool.The operative group had a significantly decreased rate of nonunion[odds ratio(OR)0.30;95%CI:0.23 to 0.40,reintervention(OR:0.33;95%CI:0.24 to 0.47),and overall complications(OR:0.62;95%CI:0.49 to 0.78)].The pooled effect of the Disabilities of Arm,Shoulder,and Hand score showed a significant difference at 3[mean difference(MD)-8.26;95%CI:-13.60 to-2.92],6(MD:-6.72;95%CI:-11.34 to-2.10),and 12 months(MD:-2.55;95%CI:-4.36 to-0.74).The pooled effect of Visual Analog Scale scores and the Constant-Murley score did not significantly differ between the two groups.CONCLUSION This systematic review and meta-analysis revealed a trend of rapid functional recovery and decreased rates of nonunion and reintervention after operation for humeral shaft fracture compared to conservative treatment.
文摘Introduction: Fibroid benign tumour of the uterus can be operated either by laparotomy or laparoscopy. Laparoscopy is not well vulgarised in our settings. Objective: The main objective was to compare the surgical and post-operative outcomes of laparoscopic versus abdominal myomectomy. Methods: We performed a comparative analytical cross sectional study from 1st January 2016 to 31st March 2018 consisted of two groups: group 1 of women who underwent laparoscopic myomectomy (LM) and group 2 of women who underwent abdominal myomectomy (AM). The data collected was entered in Epi Info 7.2 version and exported to IBM SPSS Statistics version 22 for analysis. We used alpha error margin of 5% and confidence interval of 95%. Results: We enrolled 50 cases of myomectomy consisted of 33 (66.0%) files for AM and 17 (34.0%) files for LM. The clinical presentation of fibroid was similar in both groups. The main operation time (H) was (1.27 ± 0.13) for laparoscopy which is much less than (2.05 ± 0.07) for laparotomy group (p = 0.006). In AM group we had 04 post-operatory complications against zero complications in LM group but the difference was not statistically significant (p = 0.387). In the second look laparoscopy, the types of adhesions were not statistically significant (p = 0.471). Conclusion: Laparoscopic offers advantages compared to abdominal myomectomy.
文摘The dental operative microscope has been widely employed in the field of dentistry,particularly in endodontics and operative dentistry,resulting in significant advancements in the effectiveness of root canal therapy,endodontic surgery,and dental restoration.However,the improper use of this microscope continues to be common in clinical settings,primarily due to operators’insufficient understanding and proficiency in both the features and established operating procedures of this equipment.In October 2019,Professor Jingping Liang,Vice Chairman of the Society of Cariology and Endodontology,Chinese Stomatological Association,organized a consensus meeting with Chinese experts in endodontics and operative dentistry.The objective of this meeting was to establish a standard operation procedure for the dental operative microscope.Subsequently,a consensus was reached and officially issued.Over the span of about four years,the content of this consensus has been further developed and improved through practical experience.
文摘Objective:To investigate the difference and complementarity between total mesorectal excision(TME)and radical resection in relation to postoperative local recurrence in patients receiving anus-reserve operation on rectal cancer.Methods:Clinical data of 81 cases during a period from 1975 to 2001 were retrospectively analyzed.Results:In the 81 cases with local recurrence,49 of them laid to anastomosis and mesorectum,17 lymph nodes and 15 multi-site relapse.The choice of operative procedure included abdominoperineal resection in 58 cases,Hartmann’s operation in 4 cases,simple double-pelvic stoma in 12 cases,exploration in 7 cases,and total pelvic or rear-pelvic resection in combination with other organs in 6 cases. The rate of resection was 84.0%(68/81).32 cases reached clinical radical degree,and the rate of radical resection was 39.5% (32/81).The 5-year survival rate was 34.4%(11/32).Conclusion:Based on actual condition of the patients,attention to radi- cal resection and total mesorectal excision are necessary,and reasonable adoption of the operative procedure could reduce the local recurrence of rectal cancer.

文摘The fornix, which is involved in transfer of episodic memory, is an important structure of the Papez circuit between the medial diencephalon and the medial temporal lobe. Many studies using DTI have reported on injury of the fornix in patients with brain injury (Nakayama et al., 2006; Sugiyama et al., 2007; Wang et al., 2008; Chang et al., 2010). However, only a few studies on recov- ery of an injured fornix in patients with brain injury, including traumatic brain injury and stroke, have been reported (Yeo et al., 2011; Yeo and Jang, 2013a, b). In this study, using follow up DTT images, we reported on a patient who showed recovery of injured fornical crura following a neurosurgical operation for a brain tumor.
文摘Purpose: studying and analyzing the application effect of three dimensional (3D) laparoscopy m surgical operation. Method: We select 126 patients who were diagnosed celiac disease in our hospital between May 2015 and April 2016 as our research subjects. All of these patients have indications for laparoscopic surgery, and we divide them into two groups randomly (observation and control group). While the observation group is treated by 3D laparoscopic operation system, and the control group is treated by 2D laparoscopic system. During the treatment ,we observe the operation time, intra-operative bleeding and hospitalization time between the two different methods. Result: During the operation, the operation time of observation is (135.5±23.84) minutes and intra-operative bleeding time is (130.2±20. 11) milliliters, which both them are significantly lower than control group (163.8±25.22)min, (146.3±27.42)ml. This difference is statistically significant (P 〈0.05). On the other hand, there is no obvious difference between observation and conlrol about indwelling catheter time, postoperative hospitalization time and postoperative exhaust time. For the observation, the datum were (2.3±0.31) d, (8.1±1. 32) d, (3.2±0.58) d and they were no statistical significance. Conclusion: Compared with traditional laparoscopic surgery, the image of 3D laparoscopic surgery is more clear and stereoscopic. What's more, operators can have a good command of it easily to shorten operation time, which avoid surgery vascular damage and reduce bleeding amounts to some extent. It is a good assistant for clinical use.
文摘Nowadays there have been various advanced techniques to overcome disparate types of lumbar degenerative diseases. However, post-operation complications such as Surgical Site Infection (SSI) still give the surgeon with a big challenge. This article is going to study the risk factor that causes the lumbar SSI by reviewing all the articles that can be assessed through PubMed, websites of science and other internet data base. Numerous articles have stated different reported prevalence rates of 0.7% to 16% for surgical site infection. This article will document the most common and significant risk factors for SSI. At last, we suggest that there should be preoperative patient screening and postoperative internal environment maintenance, this will be the best way to reduce postoperative SSI rate or prevent SSI from happening.
文摘Objective:While a rushed operation can omit essential procedures,prolonged operative time results in higher morbidity.Nevertheless,the optimal operative time range remains uncertain.This study aimed to estimate the ideal operative time range and evaluate its applicability in laparoscopic cancer surgery.Methods:A prospectively collected multicenter database of 397 patients who underwent laparoscopic distal gastrectomy were retrospectively reviewed.The ideal operative time range was statistically calculated by separately analyzing the operative time of uneventful surgeries.Finally,intraoperative and postoperative outcomes were compared among the shorter,ideal,and longer operative time groups.Results:The statistically calculated ideal operative time was 135.4-165.4 min.The longer operative time(LOT)group had a lower rate of uneventful,perfect surgery than the ideal or shorter operative time(IOT/SOT)group(2.8%vs.8.8%and 2.2%vs.13.4%,all P<0.05).Longer operative time increased bleeding,postoperative morbidities,and delayed diet and discharge(all P<0.05).Particularly,an uneventful,perfect surgery could not be achieved when the operative time exceeded 240 min.Regardless of ideal time range,SOT group achieved the highest percentage of uneventful surgery(13.4%),which was possible by surgeon's ability to retrieve a higher number of lymph nodes and perform≥150 gastrectomies annually.Conclusions:Operative time longer than the ideal time range(especially≥240 min)should be avoided.If the essential operative procedure were faithfully conducted without compromising oncological safety,an operative time shorter than the ideal range leaded to a better prognosis.Efforts to minimize operative time should be attempted with sufficient surgical experience.
文摘Objective The aim of this study was to conduct a security assessment of intraoperative intraperitoneal chemotherapy using lobaplatin for advanced colorectal cancer.Methods From February 2015 to February 2016,143 patients with colorectal cancer who underwent surgery in our department were selected prospectively.All patients were randomly screened and enrolled into the intraperitoneal chemotherapy(IPC)(74 cases)and control(69 cases)groups,depending on the distribution of cases in the random table.In the trial group,patients were administered 40 mg lobaplatin by intraperitoneal implantation intraoperatively,together with intravenous chemotherapy post-operatively using a typical FOLFOX strategy with oxaliplatin,fluorouracil,and leucovorin.In the control group,only FOLFOX was administered.Bowel function recovery time,adverse reactions and complications,and preand post-chemotherapy laboratory examinations were compared.In addition,a 5-year-long follow-up was performed.Results Recovery times of bowel function were 73.5±9.7 h and 74.8±10.3 h respectively,and the difference was not significant(P>0.05).Wound fat liquefaction was observed in five cases in both groups(6.8%vs.7.2%,P>0.05).The outcomes of nausea and vomiting(57 cases,77.0%vs.50 cases,72.5%),constipation(43 cases,58.1%vs.36 cases,52.2%),and diarrhea(5 cases,6.8%vs.5 cases,7.2%)were not statistically significant(all P>0.05).Indices of white blood cell count,blood platelet count,and hepatorenal function were not significantly different(all P>0.05)neither post-operatively nor post-chemotherapy.The 5-year survival rate was not significantly different between the groups(58.1%vs.56.5%,P>0.05).Conclusion Intraoperative chemotherapy with lobaplatin for advanced colorectal cancer is safe and tolerable.
