ABSTRACT
Objective:To investigate the effect of thoracolumbar osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF) combined with lumbar degenerative spondylolisthesis (LDS) on spinopelvic sagittal parameters in the elderly.Methods:A case-control study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 77 patients with thoracolumbar OVCF admitted to Shanghai General Hospital, Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine from December 2016 to December 2021. There were 16 males and 61 females with the age of 61-92 years [(73.9±8.4)years]. All patients had single-level thoracolumbar fractures (T 11-L 2). Simple thoracolumbar OVCF was found in 49 patients (OVCF group) and thoracolumbar OVCF combined with LDS in 28 (OVCF+LDS group). The pelvic incidence (PI), pelvic tilt (PT), sacral slope (SS), lumbar lordosis (LL), thoracic kyphosis (TK), thoracolumbar kyphosis (TLK), sagittal vertical axis (SVA) and Roussouly types were detected and compared between the two groups before operation. Results:There was no significant difference in PT and SVA between the two groups (all P>0.05). The PI, SS, LL, TK and TLK in OVCF+LDS group were (55.8±11.0)°, (34.1±10.9)°, (45.7±9.1)°, (35.7±6.1)° and (24.8±5.2)°, significantly larger than (47.9±8.8)°, (27.0±9.4)°, (33.1±7.9)°, (29.5±6.2)° and (18.4±5.5)° in OVCF group (all P<0.01). Roussouly types I-IV counted 22, 16, 5 and 6 patients in OVCF group, compared to 8, 5, 6 and 9 patients in OVCF+LDS group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Elderly patients with thoracolumbar OVCF combined with LDS can significantly alter spinopelvic sagittal parameters, and LDS may aggravate the thoracolumbar kyphosis of OVCF. To avoid sagittal imbalance, surgery should be performed as soon as possible.
ABSTRACT
Objective Create patient-derived xenograft (PDX) model of bone and soft tissue sarcoma,and analyze the success rate of PDX model,observe the effects of chemotherapy on PDX models and its coincidence,and provide a theoretical basis for screening sensitive second and third line drugs.Methods Collected 31 cases of bone and soft tissue sarcoma from January 2015 to May 2016,which included 12 male and 19 female,with an average age of (28.5±19.9) y.The tumor tissue was obtained the day of operation,and it was cut into 2 mm3 pieces and injected into the flank of BAL B/C nude mice or SCID mice.Tumor was passaged when the diameter reached 1-2 cm and the P0 tissue was froze.If there was no obvious tumor mass grows out for 3 months,the model creation will be stopped.We inoculated the mice with patients sample with or without chemotherapy,observed the effect of chemotherapy on the success rate of PDX modeling and the success rate of modeling of different pathological types,and also observed the relationship between the success rate of PDX modeling and the prognosis of patients.For the drug sensitivity test,3 mice was used in each group,and chemotherapy was given,T/C was used to evaluate the inhibition ratio after drug treatment.Results 31 PDX models were inoculated.The total success rate is 45.2％.Pathology of the PDX models and their success rates:24 osteosarcoma models,success rate is 37％;2 leiomyosarcoma models,success rate is 100％;2 chondrosarcoma models,success rate is 50％;1 Ewing sarcoma model successed;1 fibrosarcoma model and 1 synovial sarcoma model,were not successed.Post chemotherapy model success rate is 33％ (4/12),compared with 53％(10/19) of model success rate that without chemotherapy.And there is relationship between success rate of PDX model creation and patient outcome.The faster the PDX model creation,the worse the outcome.The drug sensitivity of PDX model coincides the clinical situation.Conclusion The success rate of creating PDX model of bone and soft tissue sarcoma is around 30％-40％,and it is related to the pathology and whether got chemotherapy or not,PDX models coincide sarcomas clinical situation,and it is hopefully to use PDX model in selecting personalized drugs.
ABSTRACT
Objective Investigate the surgical resection,reconstruction technique and follow-up of partly defect by primary bone malignancy in acetabulum.Methods Retrospective analysis 20 cases clinical data of partly defect by primary bone malignancy in acetabulum patients from January 2009 to January 2015.Resect the tumor and reconstruct the acetabulum based on the type of acetabulum tumor:type A,excise pubis and partial acetabulum,use self-femoral-head transplantation and pelvis reconstruct steels to reconstruct the bone defection of acetabulum leading edge,then transplant biological type acetabular cup;type B,excise ischium and trailing edge of acetabulum,transplant self-femoral-head and fixed with cancellous screw,for those can't maintain the acetabulum stabilization,apply acetabulum enhance ring to immobilize;type C,excise partial ilium and acetabulum superior margo to interrupt its discontinuity,self-femoral-head transplant to reconstruct acetabulum,then use enhance ring and cemented cup to rebuild hip joint.Results Total 20 cases,13 males and 7 females;the age ranges 23-69 years old,average 48 years;followed up 13-56 months,mean 34 months.Pathology types:17 cases of chondrosarcoma and 3 cases of malignant bone giant cell tumor.After surgery,3 cases of chondrosarcoma recurred (15％),1 case of malignant bone giant cell tumor relapsed and developed to pulmonary metastasis.2 cases of acetabulum prosthesis incipient dislocation performed closed replacement then fixed 6 weeks with hip joint brace.1 cases of prosthesis losing performed hip joint revision.1 case occurred deep hip infection,which performed debridement and taking out prosthesis.2 cases self-femoral-head transplant and biological total hip replacement healed well.Postoperative functional MSTS 93 score showed excellent in 13 cases,good in 6 cases,poor in 1 case.Conclusion According to the tumor type and range,determine the resection method and boundary,which is the key to acquire well oncological prognosis.On the premise of sufficient tumor resection,reconstruct function individually based on the type of acetabulum tumor,which is the key to acquire well functional prognosis and prosthesis survival rate.
