RESUMEN
Objective:To evaluate the deformity changes in the treatment of congenital clubfoot in infants by ultrasound, and to explore its clinical application value.Methods:Seventeen infants with congenital clubfoot treated in the Department of Pediatric Orthopaedics of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from March 2020 to June 2021 and 27 normal infants in the same period were selected. The distance between medial malleolus and scaphoids (MM-N distance) of all feet was measured by ultrasound. The distance from the tangent line of the lateral edge of calcaneus to the midpoint of the lateral edge of the chondroid bone (C-C distance), medial soft tissue thickness and tibial calcaneal angle were measured by ultrasound. The data before, after treatment and during follow-up were statistically analyzed.Results:A total of 88 feet of 44 infants were evaluated. The mean number of cast was 4.7±1.1, the follow-up time was (96.9±59.3)days. The MM-N distance, C-C distance and posterior tibial calcaneal angle in the clubfoot group were improved after treatment and at the last follow-up, and the differences were statistically significant (all P<0.01). During the treatment, 1 case had false correction, and 2 cases recurred in the last follow-up. Conclusions:Ultrasound can clearly display the medial, dorsal, lateral and posterior articular structures of normal and clubfoot, and can observe the deformity changes of clubfoot during the correction process, which can provide guidance for the clinical treatment of clubfoot.
RESUMEN
Objective:To explore the feasibility of the application of optical coherence tomography (OCT) in the diagnosis of congenital pseudarthrosis of tibia (CPT) in children.Methods:Ten children with neurofibromatosis type Ⅰ (NF1) and CPT were treated in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Zhengzhou University from January 2016 to December 2019, and enrolled as the experimental group.The bone tissue samples were collected and subjected to OCT scanning after intraoperative observation and evaluation, and were contrasted with conventional histological examination.During the same period, the bone tissues of 5 non-NF1 and non-CPT induced-labor fetuses were collected as the control group for the above examination, and the bone tissue examination results of the experimental group and the control group were compared as well.Results:Compared with the bone tissues of the control group, that of the experimental group displayed thickening trabecular bone, part of trabecular bone fusion, disordered arrangement, proliferation and fatification of interstitial fibrous tissue.OCT scan can directly show the nerves and blood vessels in the bone tissue, scattered in adipose tissue.OCT scan showed that the bone tissues of the control group were neatly arranged, with dense and regular shadows.The bone tissues of the experimental group could be observed with strong refraction, loose arrangement, and disordered bone fractures, fibrous ossification, scattered nerves, blood vessels, and increased vacuolar fat cells.Conclusions:OCT can quickly and clearly scan the freshly isolated tissues and directly display the internal structure of the tissues.It is highly compatible with routine pathological examinations and can be an effective supplement to the pathological diagnosis of children with CPT and retain samples for subsequent genetic studies.

Objective To explore the relationship between cognitive function and sleep disturb-ance,depression and anxiety. Methods Totally 333 medical staff were investigated using the repetitive neu-ropsychological status questionnaire (RBANS),the Pittsburgh sleep quality index ( PSQI),the depression self-rating scale (SDS) and the anxiety self-rating scale ( SAS). Results ①The difference of visual span in gender(male:(81. 87±13. 48) vs female:(77. 12± 13. 09)) was statistically significant ( t=2. 928,P<0. 05).②Differences in immediate memory,language function,attention function and total score of RBANS among patients of different ages were statistically significant ( F=9. 654,8. 370,11. 465,11. 112, all P<0. 01).③There were significant differences in the RBANS,immediate memory,visual span,attention function and delayed memory between doctor and nurse(t=5. 374,4. 730,3. 389,4. 359,5. 675,all P<0. 01).④There were significant differences in the RBANS,immediate memory,and delayed memory between different PSQI levels ( F=3. 475,4. 892,4. 087, all P<0. 05). ⑤There were significant differences in RBANS ((88. 87±12. 47) vs (83. 69±13. 03)),immediate memory ((86. 18±16. 09) vs (80. 56±15. 38)),visual span ((79. 39±13. 32) vs (73. 47±12. 46)),and delayed memory ((89. 03±10. 26) vs (85. 49±11. 41)) between the depressive symptoms and not depressive symptoms groups( t=2. 794,2. 380,3. 042,2. 295,all P<0. 05) .⑥The total score of medical staff's RBANS was significantly negatively correlated with their PSQI,SDS and SAS scores (r=-0. 158,-0. 233,-0. 117,all P<0. 05).⑦SDS,age,occupation,education, time of sleep and PSQI entered multiple stepwise regression equations,which explain 39. 9% variation in cog-nitive function of medical staff. Conclusion The cognitive function of medical staff is affected by gender, age,occupation,education,depression,and sleep disturbance. The worse the sleep quality,the higher the de-gree of depression and anxiety,and the poorer the cognitive function.

RESUMEN
Objective To analyze postoperative complications of duct-to-mucosa pancreaticojejunostomy and side-to-end or end-to-end pancreaticojejunostomy following pancreaticoduodenectomy.Methods The clinical data of 342 patients who underwent pancreaticoduodenectomy at the West China Hospital of Sichuan University from June 2004 to May 2008 were retrospectively analyzed.All patients were divided into the duct-to-mucosa group (179 cases)and side-to-end or end-to-end group(163 cases)according to the styles of pancreaticojejunostomy.The relationship between the incidence and severity of postoperative complications of the 2 anastomotic styles were analyzed according to the Clavien grading system.The measurement data and the count data were analyzed using the t test or chi-square test.Results The overall complication rate was 48.8％(167/342),and the complication rate was 38.0％(68/179)in the side-to-end group and 60.7％(99/163)in the side-to-end or end-to-end group,with a significant difference between the 2 groups(x2=17.667,P ＜0.05).The incidences of grade Ⅱ and grade Ⅴ complications were 16.8％(30/179)and 1.1％(2/179)in the duct-to-mucosa group,which were significantly lower than 28.2％(46/163)and 5.5％(9/163)of the side-to-end or end-to-end group(x2=6.484,5.316,P ＜0.05).Conclusion Compared with side-to-end or end-to-end pancreaticojejunostomy,duct-to-mucosa pancreaticojejunostomy is a better style with a lower incidence of postoperative complication.
RESUMEN
Objective To explore the main causes for death due to severe acute pancreatitis (SAP) to improve the level of diagnosis and treatment. Methods The clinical data of 1162 SAP cases treated in our hospital from June 1997 to May 2005 were retrospectively analyzed. Among which, 144patients (12. 39%) died, 82(7.06%)abandoned treatment and 936(80.55%)were cured. Results the APACHE Ⅱ scores and pancreas Balthazar CT scores of the death group were higher than that of the survival group. The percentage of single one organ dysfunction and multiple organ dysfunction syndrome (MODS) was significantly higher in the death group than in the survival group. The mortality rate of SAP without obvious inducing factors was significantly higher than that of SAP with inducing factors. Conclusion Integrated traditional and western non-surgical treatment is effective for SAP.The treatment for SAP without obvious inducing factors is a challenge. The mortality rate of SAP is primarily related to the pathological changes of pancreas and the patient's general condition. Early diagnosis and treatment is important to decrease mortality rate and maintaining the function of important organs is basic to ensure curative effect.
RESUMEN
We performed a simultaneous pancreas-kidney transplantation (SPK) for type 2 diabetes complicated with end-staged renal disease (ESRD) in March, 2007. The recipient was a 65-year old male, who suffered type 2 diabetes for 15 years and renal dysfunction for 5 years and other diabetic complications such as retinopathy and peripheral neuropathy. SPK was performed successfully for him, in which the kidney was placed in the left iliac fossa, while the pancreas in the right iliac fossa, with an entedc drainage for pancreas exocrine and a systemic drainage for endocrine. Serum C-peptide, creatinine and blood urea nitrogen reached normal levels on day 1,4 and 11 post-transplant, respectively. Blood glucose became stabilized gradually to normal level and therefore the injected insulin was stopped on day 16 post-transplant. Oral glucose tolerance test (OGTT) showed the function of grafted pancreas was normal after 3 weeks of transplant, and no transplant-related complications occurred. With the recipient followed up for 20 months, both his blood glucose level and renal function maintained normal without using insulin.

OBJECTIVE To investigate the frozen section and surgical margin predicting the prognosis of laryngeal carcinoma after partial laryngectomy and decides the circumscription of surgical margin because of the balance between the function of the larynx and the recurrence rate of cancer.METHODS 77 cases of laryngocarcinoma were reviewed in this retrospective study.All of the laryngocarcinoma patients were treated in our hospital during 1996.1～2001.12 frozen section, surgical margin, and pathological section were compared to the recurrence rate of cancer and the survival rate of patients.RESULTS To those Partial laryngectomy whose surgical margin are larger than 0.5 cm, whether carrying out the frozen section is not significant.But to those Partial laryngectomy whose surgical margin are smaller than 0.5 cm, we should carry out the surgical margin to decrease the positive rate of the pathological section.Recurrent rate of the negative group is lower than the positive group(P
RESUMEN
Objective To establish the model of pancreatoduodenal allotransplantation in pigs with enteric drainage (ED) and portal venous drainage (PVD). Methods Forty-six hybrid landraces were divided into two groups (donor and recipient groups) randomly, for pancreatoduodenal allotransplantation. Donors were perfused via abdomial aorta without clamping the portal venous outflow with UW solution after heparinization. Whole pancreatoduodenal graft was harvested with segments of abdomial aorta and portal vein and shaped under cold UW solution. Then, the end-to-end anastomosis was performed with the donor iliac artery bifurcation “Y” graft to the recipient superior mesenteric arteries and celiac artery. Furthermore, type Ⅰdiabete model was made by removal of the recipient pancreas. The venous anastomosis was reconstructed between the donor portal vein and the recipient superior mesenteric vein. Meanwhile, the end-to-side anastomosis was performed with the donor common iliac artery bifurcation “Y” graft to the recipient abdomial aorta and the side-to-side intestinal anastomosis was performed between the donor duodenum and the recipient jejunum. External jugular vein was intubated for transfusion. The levels of blood glucose, insulin and glucagon in blood were measured before and during the operation and 1, 3, 5, 7 d after operation. Results Twenty-three cases of pancreatoduodenal allotranplantations were performed on pigs. One died from complication of anesthesia. Success rate of operation was 95.7%.Complications of operation happened in 2 cases in which one was phlebothrombosis, incidence 4.5% and the other was duodenojejunal anastomotic leak, incidence 4.5%. The level of blood glucose increased within 30 min and recovered on the 2nd day after removal of pancreas. The levels of insulin and glucagon decreased within 30 min and recovered on the 2nd day after removal of pancreas. Rejection curred at the 1st day and reached the worst level on the 9th day after transplantation without the change of insulin and glucagon in blood and clinical symptoms of rejection. Conclusion Pancreatoduodenal transplantation in pigs can treat type Ⅰ diabete. ED and PVD can keep the function of endocrine in normal. The techni- que of duodenal transplantation with ED and PVD may pave the way for the further development of pancreas transplantation in clinic.
RESUMEN
ObjectiveTo classify chronic pancreatitis (CP) based on pathological features and evaluate the benefits of different surgical procedures according to the pathological forms. Methods Forty CP cases during recent 9 years who underwent surgical therapy were retrospectively reviewed in association with clinicopathological analysis. Results Postoperative pain-relief rate was 79.16% in patients treated with longitudinal pancreaticojejunostomy(LPJ). In cases without enlarged pancreatic head or diverticulum of duodenum, postoperative pain-relief rate was 86%.Postoperative pain-relief rate was high by Whipple′s procedure, pylorus-preserving pancreaticoduodenectomy or Beger duodenum-preserving pancreatic head resection,while postoperative diabetes mellitus developed in 22%.Conclusions Both pathological form and operative procedure were factors influencing outcomes of CP.LPJ is still a main surgery for most CP patients with pancreatic fibrosis and dilated pancreatic duct and pancreatic stone.Some patients of CP with enlarged pancreatic head, hyperplasia of pancreatic parenchyma and pancreatic duct epithelia or complicated with diverticulum of the duodenum should be treated with resections targeting at the head of the pancreas.
