ABSTRACT
To improve the students'! comprehensive quality and cultivate their innovative medical talents, we applied different forms of discussion teaching in different stages of the students. In the course of theory, the form of short discussion was adopted to improve the students'! interest and concentration. In preclinical practice stage, the method of problem centered discussion was used to consolidate the profes-sional knowledge of the students. Discussion in the clinical practice was based on the actual problem of diagnosis and treatment, in order to cultivate the students'!clinical thinking. Through the diversified practice of discussion teaching with positive teaching evaluation, students'!interest in oral and maxillofacial surgery and the quality of teaching were improved.
ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo investigate an optimal treatment of localized low flow type venous malformation located in the oral and maxillofacial region.MethodsFifty seven patients with localized low-flow venous malformation were treated by intralesional injection of PYM.The injections was repeated at an interval of 10 to 14 days,but not more than 3-5 sessions within a therapeutic period.If necessary,the secondary therapeutic period was performed 1 month later.The general and local adverse responses and the appearance improvement were recorded.The clinical outcomes and aesthetic effects were assessed with a follow-up of 1 to 3 years.ResultsAfter 3-8 injections,complete clinical resolutions were achieved in 52 patients.The deformity disappeared thoroughly.The surface skin and the appearance of lesions showed normal.4 patients received completed lesion control and showed nor mal skin or muco but a little hypertrophy tissue.One venous malformation reduced 2/3 volume after 8injections but improved slowly.The therapeutic time seemed to be related with the size of lesion.Diameter less than 3 cm could be usually cured within 1 treatment period.No ulcerations or scars were presented in injection regions.The function of nerves in oral and maxillofacial region remained normality in all patients.The systematic complication included transient pyrexia and poor appetite appeared in several cases.No allergy was found.No clinical recurrence was observed during the follow-up.ConclusionsTreatment of localized low-flow venous malformations in oral and maxillofacial region with PYM sclerotherapy reveals a high rate of complete clinical resolution,a fair cosmetic and function result,and does not damage facial nerves or form local scars.And it might be regard as an optimal therapeutic method to localized low-flow venous malformations.
ABSTRACT
Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of pingyangmycin (PYM) injection on infantile hemangioma located in the parotid gland region. Methods Twelve patients were treated by intralesional injection of PYM. When necessary, the injections were repeated at an interval of one week, but not more than 3-4 sessions within a therapeutic period. Normally, the secondary therapeutic period was performed 1 month later. The general and local adverse responses were recorded and the clinical outcomes were assessed with a follow-up of 1 to 3 years. Results Complete clinical resolutions were achieved in 10 patients. 2 patients received one injection, 3 patients received 2 injections, 3 patients received 3 injections, and 2 patients received 4 injections. The remaining 2 patients with partial resolution received 6 and 7 injections respectively. No clinical recurrence was observed during the follow-up of 1 to 3 years. No ulcerations or postoperative sears in injection regions were presented. The function of facial nerve was remained normality in all patients. The systematic side effects included transient pyrexia and poor appetite appeared in partial patients. No allergy cases were found. Conclusion Treatment of infantile hemangioma located in parotid gland region with PYM injection reveals a high rate of complete clinical resolution, with fair cosmetic results and short treatment time, and it does not damage the facial nerve or form local scar.The treatment time of PYM injection seems to be positively related to size of the lesions.
ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the feasibility of modified combined radical neck dissection remaining integrality of mandible in the surgical management of advanced tongue squamous cell carcinoma.Methods:39 cases of advanced tongue squamous cell carcinoma received modified combined radical operation remaining integrality of mandible,7-year follow-up was conducted.Results:Integrality of mandible and the function of mastication were remained in all the cases.1 and 3 years after operation there were 1 case and 9 cases of recurrence respectively.Metastasis was found in 5 cases.The 3-year survival rate was(61.72?5.44)%.Conclusion:The modified combined radical neck dissection remaining integrality of mandible is feasible in the treatment of advanced tongue squamous cell carcinoma.
