ABSTRACT
ObjectiveTo evaluate multi-slice CT (MSCT) in glenoid bone loss of patients with recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation.Methods MSCT findings of 108 patients with recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation and 12 with single anterior shoulder dislocation were retrospectively studied.The incidence,degrees and locations of glenoid bone losses were recorded.The incidence was analyzed with Fisher exact test.The maximum length,depth and proportion were compared with Wilcoxon rank sum test.ResultsGlenoid bone loss was detected in 91.7％ (99/108)patients with recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation.The proportion of glenoid bone loss was ( 16.0 ± 6.0)％,and the central locations of glenoid bone loss were from 2: 20 to 4: 25 ( mean 3: 20).Sixty-two percent (67/108) patients had bony Bankart lesions in which 58.2％ (39/67) bony fragments were free and 41.8％ (28/67) were adherent to the anterior border of the glenoid cavity.Seventy-five percent (9/12) patients with single shoulder dislocation had anterior glenoid bone loss,and the proportion of glenoid bone loss was ( 15.2 ± 7.1 ) ％.There were no statistical differences of the incidence (P =0.100) and proportion of glenoid bone loss ( P =0.453 ) between the recurrent and single anterior shoulder dislocation.ConclusionsAnterior glenoid bone loss is common in patients with recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the instructive value of preoperative splenic artery CTA examination on Laparoscopic splenectomy (LS). Methods From January 2008 to February 2010,36 cases requiring Laparoscopic splenectomy (LS) were selected randomly and divided into two groups: CTA group and non-CTA group, 18 cases in each group. As for the CTA group,splenic artery CTA examination was performed before operation,to understand splenic artery and its branches anatomy type and track and then individualized surgical treatment was developed. As for the non-CTA group,a routine surgical procedure was performed. The indices before and during the operation were recorded and compared through χ2 test The operating time and the amount of bleeding in the two groups were compared using t-test Results There were no significant difference between the indices recorded by splenic artery CTA examination and those by laparoscopic splenectomy intraoperation ( P > 0. 05 ) . The operating time was (124. 32 ±21.43) mins in the CTA group, which was significantly shorter than that in the non-CTA group ((148.27 ±28. 36)mins) (P <0. 05). The amount of blood in the CTA group was significantly less than that in the non-CTA group( ( 80. 50 ± 16. 42) ml vs. (101. 35 ± 26.25 ) ml). Conclusions Splenic artery CTA can identify splenic artery and its branches anatomy type and track before LS,therefore guide the development of individualized surgical treatment It increases the safety of LS, reduces bleeding and shortens the operational time. It has an instrutive value to laparoscopic splenectomy.
