ABSTRACT
Objective@#To investigate the application value of 3D microscope in vascular anastomosis in oral and maxillofacial surgery, to provide a reference for clinicians. @*Methods @#Eighty-seven cases of free flap reconstruction in oral and maxillofacial surgery were retrospectively included, including 30 cases in the 3D microscope group and 57 cases in the optical microscope group. The differences in intraoperative vascular anastomosis time, postoperative flap survival rate and doctor evaluation scores between the 3D microscope group and the optical microscope group were compared and statistically analyzed, and the feasibility of using three-dimensional microscope in surgery was evaluated. @*Results @#The arterial anastomosis time was (26.53±3.83) min/root in the 3D microscope group and (24.88 ± 2.97) min/root in the optical microscope group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The venous anastomosis time was (30.68 ± 3.51) min/root in the three-dimensional microscope group and (28.70 ± 2.91) min/root in the optical microscope group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the survival rate of flaps between the 3D microscope group (n = 28, 93.33%) and the optical microscope group (n = 53, 92.98%) (P>0.05). The doctor's evaluation scores of visual fatigue, training and learning, operative difficulty index, image sharing in the three-dimensional microscope group were higher than those in the optical microscope group, and the differences were statistically significant (P<0.05). @* Conclusion @# 3D microscope has good reliability and safety in surgery, a strong sense of three-dimensionality, and the convenience of teaching and training. It can be well applied to vascular anastomosis in oral and maxillofacial surgery.
ABSTRACT
Objective@# To summarize the clinical manifestations of IgG4-related diseases in the head and neck, explore treatment methods.@*Methods @#The clinical data of 21 patients diagnosed with IgG4-related diseases were retrospectively analyzed. The clinical data and the results of glucocorticoid and immunosuppressive therapy were studied retrospectively.@* Results@#All patients had swollen sclerotic masses, and CT showed irregular high-density masses with uniform enhancement in the enlarged glands. Some patients had mucosal thickening and mass-like changes in theoral cavity, nose, sinuses, throat and other tissues, and most of the patients had cervical lymphadenopathy and elevated serum IgG4 levels (≥ 1.35 g/L). Histopathological examination of affected exosine glands and affected mucosa and lymph nodes in all patients showed infiltration of lymphocytes, plasma cells and IgG4+ plasma cells. In 21 patients, the mass in the affected glands and mucosa (including head, neck and other tissues) disappeared, and the clinical symptoms were relieved after the application of glucocorticoids. However, with a reduction in glucocorticoids, the mass recurred or even worsened.@*Conclusion @#For patients with a single mass in the submandibular gland, parotid gland and other salivary glands, as well as lymph node enlargement, CT is the first choice to identify the nature of gland neoplasms. Combined with pathological examination, related auxiliary examination and peripheral blood examination are also needed to obtain a definitive diagnosis. Glucocorticoid therapy is used to achieve a good prognosis, and long-term follow-up and timely adjustment of medication regimens are required.
