The Mihata technique, initially developed in Japan, has shown promising long-term results. However, a standardized post-operative rehabilitation protocol for this procedure in the USA is lacking. Purpose: This study aims to evaluate the outcomes of a comprehensive rehabilitation protocol following SCR with TFL autograft in a cohort of nine patients. Participants and Methods: A prospective observational study was conducted at Concentra Urgent Care, San Francisco. Nine patients, aged 55 - 65 years, underwent SCR with TFL autograft performed by a specialized orthopedic surgeon. Post-operative rehabilitation was managed using a structured protocol, divided into three phases focusing on passive exercises, progressive range of motion, and strengthening. Outcomes were measured using the Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) for pain, forward flexion range of motion (FF-ROM), and Single Assessment Numeric Evaluation (SANE) scores over a six-month period. Results: Significant improvements were observed in pain reduction (mean VAS decrease of −3.67 points, p = 0.01), ROM (mean FF increase of 41.11 degrees, p = 0.014), and SANE scores (mean improvement of 42.11%, p = 0.009), indicating the efficacy of the rehabilitation protocol. Conclusion: The comprehensive rehabilitation protocol following SCR with TFL autograft significantly improved pain, range of motion, and shoulder function in patients, suggesting its potential utility in clinical practice.展开更多

Introduction: Too often neglected, the bone tissue is capable of deforming. The deformation has a key role in the cushioning and dissipation of stress, a function that is hindered in the event of fascial tension, which will consequently fall on other structures used for the same purpose (Discs, menisci, cartilage, …). Structures that, in the event of increased mechanical stress, could undergo degeneration, inflammation, and injury. Materials and Method: Randomized double-blind selection of 38 people, 18 in the treatment group and 20 in the control group, men and women, aged between 16 and 35, who have been part, for at least one year, of a sports club, with a large space dedicated to jumping in its training program, have been divided into two groups: the treatment group, which was treated to increase the performance of the jump and the control group subjected to mild manual pressures, without any intention.

文摘Objective:Radiation osteonecrosis of the skull base after radiotherapy for nasopharyngeal carcinoma is one of the most serious complications,affecting patient survival and quality of life.To date,surgical resection is the main treatment for radiation osteonecrosis.The repair after the operation is very important.Inappropriate repair or lack of repair can easily cause local infection that can even spread to the brain,aggravating osteonecrosis.This study aimed to verify the feasibility and safety of the ante-rolateral thigh free fascia flap in repairing large skull base defects.Methods:From June 2021 to July 2022,a total of 12 patients with a history of radiotherapy for naso-pharyngeal carcinoma received surgical treatment at the Department of Otolaryngology Head&Neck Surgery,Sir Run Run Shaw Hospital,Zhejiang University School of Medicine.All patients were diagnosed with radiation osteonecrosis of the skull base with large skull base defects.During the endoscopic operation,a free anterolateral thigh fascia flap was used to repair the skull base and complete vascular anastomosis reconstruction.The preoperative and postoperative pain scores were retrospectively analyzed,and the dynamic changes in endoscopic surgery sites were observed.Results:The 12 patients had a median age of 58 y,with 8(66.7%)males and 4(33.3%)females.The median headache score for the patients was 5(4-7)before surgery.The patient's headache was significantly relieved postoperatively,with 11 patients having a score of 0 and one patient having a score of 1.The stench was completely resolved after the operation.There were no serious complications during the perioperative period or 12 months after the operation.Conclusion:The application of anterolateral thigh free fascia flap in skull base reconstruction is a safe and reliable reconstruction technique suitable for endoscopic surgical repair of large-scale skull base necrosis.
文摘目的探讨自体腘绳肌腱植入治疗重度阴道前壁脱垂的安全性和中期疗效。方法本研究为单臂临床试验,2021年5月开始纳入有症状、要求手术治疗的以阴道前壁重度脱垂为主的盆腔器官脱垂(pelvic organ prolapse,POP)患者,经患者充分知情,自愿选择自体腘绳肌腱添加修补,同时行双侧高位骶韧带悬吊。术后随访盆腔器官脱垂定量分度(pelvic organ prolapse quantification,POP-Q)、盆底不适调查表简表评分(Pelvic Floor Distress Inventory-Short Form 20,PFDI-20)、术后满意度评分、患者整体印象改善评分(Patient Global Impression of Improvement,PGI-I)。观察术后取腱侧下肢功能及术后并发症处理、再手术情况。结果取腱手术时间(19.7±8.3)min,盆底手术时间(122.1±37.8)min,术中出血量中位数70 ml(50~400 ml),无术中副损伤和术后病率。12例随访(26.4±2.5)月。Aa、Ba、C术前分别为3(-1~3)、5(2~10)、4(-1~10),术后24个月分别为-3(-3~3)、-3(-3~3)、-6(-6~3),差异有显著性(P<0.05)。12例术前、术后24个月PFDI-20评分分别为88.0(16.7~204.2)、8.3(0~32.3)分,差异有显著性(Z=-2.803,P=0.005);PGI-I问卷11例术后症状明显改善,1例有改善。术后6、24个月满意度评分分别为(4.8±0.4)分和(4.6±0.7)分。1例术后12个月自感阴道脱出物,阴道前壁及顶端脱垂Ⅲ度,复发率8.3%(1/12)。2例分别术后9 d、2周肺栓塞,Clavien-Dindo外科手术并发症分级分别为Ⅱ、Ⅲ级,分别门诊和住院治疗后痊愈。1例阴道顶端局部筋膜暴露,药物治疗好转。所有患者取腱部位切口愈合良好,肌力、下肢活动均正常。无因复发和筋膜条并发症再次手术。结论自体腘绳肌腱植入治疗重度阴道前壁脱垂手术安全,中期疗效满意。术前需向患者宣教下肢锻炼预防静脉血栓并发症。
