RESUMEN
RESUMEN La fascitis nodular es una neoplasia infrecuente y benigna que puede presentarse en los tejidos blandos de cualquier región del cuerpo y requerir tratamiento quirúrgico. Se describe aquí el caso de una mujer de 41 años con un tumor lateral de cuello que creció hasta 74,7 por 32,5 mm durante dos años. Bajo anestesia general se realizó la resección completa del tumor. El informe patológico informó una proliferación de miofibroblastos, compatible con fascitis nodular. La paciente evolucionó con un síndrome de Claude Bernard Horner homolateral, sin complicaciones locales y con una leve debilidad del brazo homolateral que recuperó luego de 60 días con kinesioterapia. Esta entidad debería ser considerada entre los diagnósticos diferenciales de un tumor lateral de cuello.
ABSTRACT Nodular fasciitis is a rare and benign neoplasm of the soft tissues that can occur in any region of the body and require surgical treatment. We report the case of a 41-year-old female patient with a lateral neck tumor which reached a size of 74.7 × 32.5 mm after two years. The tumor was completely removed under general anesthesia. The pathological examination reported proliferation of myofibroblasts, suggestive of nodular fasciitis. The patient evolved homolateral Claude Bernard Syndrome, without local complications and mild weakness of the ipsilateral arm which improved after 60 days with kinesiotherapy. This condition should be considered among the differential diagnoses of lateral neck tumors.
RESUMEN
Introducción. El cáncer de riñón es la undécima neoplasia maligna más común en los Estados Unidos Mexicanos. El carcinoma de células claras de riñón (CCR) es considerado la estirpe más frecuente y representa el 2-3 % de todos los cánceres a nivel mundial. En el contexto de la enfermedad metastásica, por lo general se identifica un tumor renal primario y las metástasis se localizan en pulmón, hueso, hígado, cerebro y, raramente, en tejidos blandos. Los pacientes con metástasis a tejidos blandos no tienen síntomas en las etapas iniciales y generalmente se identifican sólo cuando las lesiones aumentan de tamaño o durante el estudio de la pieza de resección quirúrgica. Caso clínico. Se presenta el caso de una paciente en la séptima década de la vida, con una metástasis en tejidos blandos de la región sacra, de 10 años de evolución posterior a una nefrectomía secundario a CCR. Resultados. Hallazgos clínicos e imagenológicos de un tumor bien delimitado. Se realizó resección quirúrgica de la lesión, bajo anestesia regional, con extirpación completa. Conclusión. Se recomienda que los pacientes con un sitio metastásico resecable y solitario sean llevados a resección quirúrgica con márgenes libres, como fue el caso de nuestra paciente, por su fácil acceso y ser una lesión única. En el CCR, además de su tratamiento quirúrgico inicial, es indispensable una estrecha vigilancia con examen físico e imágenes transversales, para detectar la presencia de metástasis y con ello evitar tratamientos tardíos.
Introduction. Kidney cancer is the eleventh most common malignancy in the United States of Mexico. Carcinoma renal cell (CRC) is considered the most frequent type and represents 2-3% of all cancers worldwide. In the setting of metastatic disease, a primary renal tumor is usually identified, and metastases are located in the lung, bone, liver, brain, and rarely in soft tissue. Patients with soft tissue metastases do not have symptoms in the initial stages and are generally found only when the lesions increase in size or during the study of the surgical resection piece. Clinical case. In this case, we report a female patient in the seventh decade of life with a soft tissue metastasis located in the sacral region, 10 years after a nephrectomy secondary to CRC. Results. Clinical and radiological findings of a well-defined tumor. Surgical resection of the lesion is performed under regional anesthesia with complete excision. Conclusions. It is recommended that patients with a resectable and solitary metastatic site be candidates for surgical resection with free margins, as was the case with our patient due to its easy access and single lesion. In CRC, in addition to its initial surgical treatment, close surveillance with physical examination and cross-sectional images is essential to monitor the presence of metastases and thus avoid late treatments.

@#After tooth extraction, significant absorption occurs in the soft and hard tissues of the alveolar ridge. The goal of alveolar ridge preservation is to maintain the volume and shape of the alveolar ridge's soft and hard tissues as much as possible so as to provide suitable conditions for implant placement. Currently, there are challenges in classifying the socket for alveolar ridge preservation, such as the difficulty in directly guiding the selection of graft materials and clinical procedures and the insufficient space for particle xenograft maintenance, resulting in poor bone regeneration. Plasmatrix is an autologous blood derivative that effectively enhances tissue regeneration. This article introduced the characteristics of soft and hard tissue defects after tooth extraction and the primary applications of plasmatrix for alveolar ridge preservation (liquid plasmatrix, solid plasmatrix membrane/plug, and plasmatrix bone blocks) as well as the proposed methods for the reclassification of sockets for alveolar ridge preservation based on soft and hard tissue defects at the extraction site to facilitate the creation of clinical recommendations. The proposed classifications are as follows: Class I, extraction socket without bone defect, with or without soft tissue defect; Class Ⅱ, extraction socket with bone defect, both sides with bone wall defect less than 50%, with or without soft tissue defect; Class Ⅲ, extraction socket with bone tissue defect, at least one side with bone wall defect greater than 50%, with or without soft tissue defect. For the Class I socket, a solid plasmatrix membrane or plug is inserted, followed by injection of liquid plasmatrix, using a double-layer solid plasmatrix membrane for socket closure; for the ClassⅡ socket, plasmatrix bone blocks are inserted, followed by injection of liquid plasmatrix and secondary solidification, using absorbable collagen membrane and double-layer solid plasmatrix membrane for socket closure; for the ClassⅢ socket, tenting screws are used to maintain height, followed by implantation of plasmatrix bone blocks, injection of liquid plasmatrix and secondary solidification, using absorbable collagen membrane and double-layer solid plasmatrix membrane for socket closure. The aim of this article is to provide comprehensive knowledge of plasmatrix for oral clinicians to serve as a reference to simplify the clinical decision-making process and procedures for alveolar ridge preservation.
RESUMEN
Objective:To analyze the histopathological characteristics of peri-implant soft tissue in re-constructed jaws and the changes after keratinized mucosa augmentation(KM A)with free gingival graft(FGG).Methods:Twenty patients were enrolled in this study.Five patients of them,who were perio-dontal and systemic healthy and referred for crown lengthening before restoration with healthy keratinized gingiva collected were enrolled as healthy controls.15 patients of them were with fibula or iliac bone flaps jaw reconstruction(10 with fibula flap and 5 with iliac flap),who were referred to FGG and implant exposures before restoration.Soft tissue was collected before FGG in reconstructed jaws,and in 5 patients(3 with fibula flap and 2 with iliac flap)8 weeks after FGG if a second surgery was conducted.Histologi-cal analysis with hematoxylin-eosin stain and immunological analysis to interlukin-1(IL-1),interlukin-6(IL-6)and tumor necrosis factor-α(TNF-α)were performed.Results:Thickness from the bottom of stratum basale to the top of stratum granulosum and thickness of keratinized layer in reconstructed jaws were significantly lower compared with that of natural healthy keratinized gingiva[0.27(0.20,0.30)mmvs.0.36(0.35,0.47)mm,P＜0.05;16.49(14.90,23.37)μm vs.26.37(24.12,31.53)μm,P＜0.05].In the reconstructed area,thickness from the bottom of stratum basale to the top of stra-tum granulosum increased after KMA with FGG[0.19(0.16,0.25)mm vs.0.38(0.25,0.39)mm,P=0.059]and the thickness of keratinized layer significantly increased after KMA with FGG[16.42(14.16,22.35)μm vs.28.57(27.16,29.14)μm,P＜0.05],which was similar to that in the con-trol group.Furthermore,the number of positive cells of IL-1,IL-6 and TNF-α significantly increased after KMA[0.67(0.17,8.93)vs.11.00(9.16,18.00);13.00(8.50,14.14)vs.21.89(15.00,28.12);0.22(0.04,0.63)vs.2.83(1.68,5.00),respectively,P＜0.05]as well as the average optical density value[0.15(0.14,0.17)vs.0.18(0.17,0.21);0.28(0.26,0.33)vs.0.36(0.33,0.37);0.23(0.22,0.29)vs.0.30(0.28,0.42),respectively,P＜0.05],which was similar to that in the healthy keratinized gingiva.Conclusion:The lack of rete pegs and inflammato-ry factors were common in soft tissue with jaw reconstruction.FGG can improve the quality of the epithe-lium and may improve the stability of the mucosa around implants.

RESUMEN
BACKGROUND:As the population ages at an accelerated rate in China,the incidence of bone and soft tissue infections is likewise on the rise.Bone and soft tissue infections can involve all bone and surrounding soft tissues,including the periosteum,cortex,cancellous bone and bone marrow.Examples of such infections include diabetes foot,osteomyelitis,surgical incision infection,and infection around joint prostheses.Owing to the intricate pathogenesis and challenging treatment,it has become increasingly noteworthy in clinical settings.Negative pressure wound therapy is a modern wound treatment which has been gaining popularity,especially in the area of bone and soft tissue infection. OBJECTIVE:To analyze the global research progress in the utilization of negative pressure wound therapy for treating bone and soft tissue infection in recent years. METHODS:Relevant articles in Chinese and English published in PubMed,Web of Science,and CNKI from 1990 to 2022 were retrieved.Search terms were"negative pressure wound therapy,vacuum assisted closure,negative pressure,osteomyelitis,bone infection"in English and Chinese,separately.A total of 711 articles were initially retrieved,out of which 65 articles were included for further review. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Negative pressure wound therapy,as an auxiliary approach to treating wounds,has a range of positive effects such as stabilizing wounds,diminishing edema,decreasing bacterial load,encouraging granulation tissue and angiogenesis,enhancing tissue perfusion,modulating peripheral nerves,modulating biological immunity and promoting the growth and differentiation of osteoblasts.This is a more effective method for managing complex wounds,such as bone and soft tissue infections,than traditional dressings with one-dimensional benefits.Numerous studies,both basic and clinical,have demonstrated the safety and efficacy of negative pressure wound therapy in the auxiliary treatment of bone and soft tissue infections.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND:The treatment of distal tibial fractures with soft tissue injury has always been challenging,and the new retrograde tibial nailing is a new choice.Up to now,there were few reports on the biomechanical properties between the new retrograde tibial nailing,anterograde intramedullary nailing and supercutaneous locking plate. OBJECTIVE:To explore the biomechanical stability of new retrograde tibial nailing,antegrade intramedullary nailing and supercutaneous locking plate in the treatment of distal tibial fractures with soft tissue injury using finite element analysis so as to offer a scientific foundation for clinical application. METHODS:The finite element model of transverse distal tibia fracture was established by relevant software utilizing the CT data of the tibia from a 42-year-old healthy male.Retrograde tibial nailing,antegrade intramedullary nailing and supercutaneous locking plate finite element models were assembled under the principle of fracture fixation.Finally,meshing,applying loads,and data processing were accomplished with the ANSYS 2019 software.Moreover,the stress distribution and displacement of the tibia and internal fixation of each model were compared. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The displacement of fracture end in the three groups increased with the increase of load.In all mode loads,the average displacement of the fracture end was the least in the retrograde tibial nailing group,followed by the supercutaneous locking plate group,and the highest in the antegrade intramedullary nailing group.At 800 N vertical load,the displacement difference of the fracture end was statistically significant(P<0.05).There was no statistical significance in other load modes.(2)Under different loads,the tibial stress in the three groups was the highest in the middle of the tibia,and gradually decreased to the proximal and distal ends.The stress distribution of the tibial shaft was the highest in the retrograde tibial nailing group,followed by the supercutaneous locking plate group,and the least in the antegrade intramedullary nailing group.(3)Under different loads,the stress of the tibial stress raiser in the three groups was significantly higher in the supercutaneous locking plate group than in the other two groups,with statistical significance(P<0.05).(4)Under different loads,the stress of the fixators in the three groups was the largest in the supercutaneous locking plate group,followed by the retrograde tibial nailing group,and the minimum in the antegrade intramedullary nailing group.There were significant differences in the stress of fixator stress raiser among the three groups under different loading modes(P<0.05).(5)It is indicated that all three fixation methods have the good anti-rotation ability and axial stability.Retrograde tibial nail shows better biomechanical stability.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE:Knee adduction moment and knee adduction angular impulse enlargement is the main biomechanical risk factor of knee osteoarthritis.According to the survey,a change in the foot progression angle could effectively change the motion mode of patients with knee osteoarthritis.However,the impact of toe-in and toe-out on knee adduction moment and knee adduction angular impulse in young and elderly patients did not reach a consensus.Therefore,this study comprehensively discussed the effect of foot progression angle on knee adduction moment and knee adduction angular impulse in different populations through meta-analysis and provided a reference for the treatment of knee osteoarthritis. METHODS:By June 2022,searches were conducted on Web of Science,EBSCO,PubMed and CNKI databases using"foot progression angle,knee adduction moment,knee adduction angular impulse,gait"as Chinese and English search terms.Self-controlled randomized controlled studies analyzing the effects of toe-in and toe-out on knee adduction moment bimodality and knee adduction angular impulse were included.The cochrane bias risk assessment tool was utilized to make a quality evaluation of the literature.Stata 15.1 software was used for subgroup analysis to determine the effect of foot progression angle on knee adduction moment and knee adduction angular impulse.Meta-regression analysis was used to further determine characteristics of outcome indicators(knee adduction moment,knee adduction angular impulse)changing with foot progression angle. RESULTS:(1)A total of 15 self-control trials and 2 randomized controlled trials(455 subjects)were included in the meta-analysis.All of the included articles were of medium to high quality.(2)The meta-analysis results showed that the toe-in gait could reduce the first peak of knee adduction moment(SMD=-0.380,95%CI:-0.710 to-0.060,P=0.022)and knee adduction angular impulse(SMD=-1.470,95%CI:-2.160 to-0.770,P<0.001)in young patients.The toe-out gait reduced the second peak of knee adduction moment(SMD=-0.720,95%CI:-1.010 to-1.440,P<0.001)in young patients.In addition,toe-in gait could reduce the first peak of knee adduction moment in elder patients(SMD=-0.550,95%CI:-0.800 to-0.300,P<0.001),but increase the second peak knee adduction moment of elderly(SMD=0.280,95%CI:-0.010 to 0.560,P=0.047).The toe-out gait could decrease the second peak knee adduction moment in this population(SMD=-0.510,95%CI:-0.830 to-0.190,P=0.002).(3)Meta-regression showed that the greater the toe-out in elderly patients,the lower the second peak knee adduction moment. CONCLUSION:(1)Toe-in reduced the first peak knee adduction moment and knee adduction angular impulse in young knee osteoarthritis patients aged 18 to 34 years.Since knee adduction moment and knee adduction angular impulse were associated with medial knee loading and knee osteoarthritis incidence,toe-in gait intervention may be a suitable rehabilitation strategy for young patients.(2)Toe-in increased the second peak of knee adduction moment in older knee osteoarthritis patients over 60 years of age,which may exacerbate knee osteoarthritis in this population.However,the second peak of knee adduction moment during walking in this population decreases as the toe-out increases,contributing to a reduction in medial knee loading,suggesting that older patients may consider using toe-out gait during walking.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND:Vascularization is essential for wound healing and functional recovery during soft tissue repair.Adipose tissue is believed to be the body's largest source of stem cells,and a number of different fat complexes have been developed for research and treatment.Its ability to promote angiogenesis and soft tissue repair has been extensively studied. OBJECTIVE:To review the progress of vascularization in soft tissue repair,and to summarize the preparation methods of adipose tissue and its derivative and their applications in vascularization and soft tissue repair.It is proven that adipose tissue and its derivative have excellent research value and clinical application prospects in vascular and soft tissue engineering. METHODS:PubMed,Web of Science and CNKI databases were used to search the related articles published from January 2010 to February 2023.The search terms were"soft tissue repair,wound healing,vascularization,angiogenesis,adipose tissue,stromal vascular fraction,adipose tissue-derived microvascular fragment,nanofat,adipose extracellular matrix/stromal vascular fraction gel"in Chinese and English.A small number of old classic literature was also included.An initial screening was performed by reading the titles and abstracts to exclude literature that was not relevant to the topic of the article,and 69 papers were finally included for the analysis of the result. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Wound healing is an important physiological process,which mainly occurs when tissue is damaged,such as injury,surgery,burn,tumor,infection and vascular disease caused by tissue damage and defects.(2)Adequate vascularization of the wound site is essential for tissue repair,reconstruction of local homeostasis and functional recovery.(3)Adipose tissue is believed to be the body's largest pool of stem cells and a number of different fat components have been used for research and treatment.(4)Due to its inherent composition and preparation advantages,adipose tissue will continue to play an important role in tissue engineering research and therapy.
RESUMEN
OBJECTIVE:There is no consensus on which sit-up strategy to adopt in knee osteoarthritis patients of different ages.Therefore,this study evaluated the biomechanical characteristics of sit-ups in knee osteoarthritis patients of different ages compared with healthy individuals by meta-analysis system and analyzed the sit-up movement patterns of patients of different ages to provide a reference for improving the sit-up function of patients. METHODS:By March 2023,observational studies of biomechanical characteristics of sitting up in patients with knee osteoarthritis and healthy population were retrieved on PubMed,Web of Science and CNKI.Subjects were required to be patients over 50 years of age with knee osteoarthritis who had Kellgren-Lawrence severity grading≥Ⅰ on knee imaging and who had regular knee pain.Subjects were analyzed by age(50-60 years vs.over 60 years)and severity(mild to moderate patients vs.severe patients)subgroups according to inclusion and exclusion criteria.Quality assessment was performed using the modified Down and black scale.Stata 16.0 software was used to perform subgroup analysis to determine the biomechanical characteristics of sitting up in patients with knee osteoarthritis of different ages and severities. RESULTS:A total of 14 randomized controlled trials(824 subjects)were included in the meta-analysis.The mean quality score of all included literature was 76.2,with a range of 66.7 to 86.7,all of which were of medium to high quality and representative.The included studies were of moderate to high quality and representative.Meta-analysis results found that(1)compared to healthy individuals,patients with knee osteoarthritis had longer total sitting up time(SMD=0.92,95%CI:0.76-1.09),P<0.001)and longer extension phase time(SMD=0.46,95%CI:0.18-0.74,P=0.001).Compared to mild to moderate patients,the total duration increased more significantly in severe patients(P<0.001)and the duration of the extension phase increased more significantly in patients over 60 years of age than in patients 50-60 years of age(P=0.001).(2)Compared to healthy individuals,patients with knee osteoarthritis had greater sitting-up trunk flexion motion range(SMD=0.64,95%CI:0.37-0.91,P<0.001);knee flexion motion range(SMD=-0.47,95%CI:-0.70 to-0.24,P<0.001)and ankle dorsiflexion motion range(SMD=-0.32,95%CI:-0.56 to-0.08,P=0.01)were smaller.And knee flexion motion range decreased more significantly in patients over 60 years of age than in patients 50-60 years of age(P<0.001).(3)The peak hip flexion moment(SMD=-0.57,95%CI:-0.83 to-0.31,P<0.001)and peak knee extension moment(SMD=-0.83,95%CI:-1.08 to-0.59,P<0.001)were smaller in patients with knee osteoarthritis. CONCLUSION:(1)Patients with knee osteoarthritis over the age of 60 years have a longer sit-up cushion and extension phase than patients aged 50 to 60 years.The increase in total sit-up duration was also more pronounced in patients with higher severity grades.The increased length of sitting up in patients with advanced age and knee osteoarthritis severity may increase the duration of cartilage loading,exacerbate knee pain symptoms,and increase the difficulty of sitting up in this population.(2)Patients with knee osteoarthritis exhibit limited knee and ankle flexion motion range.Knee mobility is more limited in patients over 60 years of age.(3)Patients with knee osteoarthritis have reduced peak hip flexion and knee extension moments,which may be a compensatory strategy for pain relief.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND:Due to the mechanical properties,unstable drug release,single function and other problems of pure hydrogel materials,in recent years,researchers have prepared a variety of metal organic frameworks-based hydrogel materials by introducing metal organic frameworks into hydrogel,and showed great potential in the field of soft and hard tissue regeneration. OBJECTIVE:To classify the metal organic frameworks-based hydrogel materials based on how metal organic frameworks enhance the properties of hydrogel and further summarize its recent research in the field of soft and hard tissue regeneration,in order to provide ideas and theoretical supports for the subsequent in-depth research on synthesis mechanism and clinical application of the composite material.

RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)Metal organic frameworks-based hydrogel materials effectively solve the problems of poor mechanical properties,unstable drug release and single function of pure hydrogel.(2)Metal organic frameworks enhance the capacity of repair and regeneration by strengthening the cross-linking of hydrogel,the drug delivery capacity of hydrogel and the multifunction of hydrogel.(3)In terms of hard tissue repair,it has shown good repair effects in animal models of diseases such as bone defects,osteoarthritis,and cartilage defects,suggesting potential application prospects in clinical repair.(4)In terms of soft tissue regeneration,it has the capacities of hemostasis,antibacterial,inflammatory state regulation,oxidative stress state regulation,promoting angiogenesis and other functions,effectively improving the microenvironment of various complex wounds and promoting soft tissue regeneration.(5)Although metal organic frameworks-based hydrogels have many excellent properties,they are still in the initial stage and there are some urgent problems to be solved in the process of clinical transformation,such as the cytotoxicity of metal organic frameworks and large-scale synthesis of metal organic frameworks.(6)With further research,metal organic frameworks-based hydrogels have broad application prospects in the field of soft and hard tissue repair.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND:Instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization is often used as a noninvasive treatment for soft tissue(skeletal muscle,ligament,and fascia)injuries and postoperative recovery to improve pain and enhance strength in the range of joint motion. OBJECTIVE:To compare the clinical efficacy of instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization and massage therapy in patients with lateral epicondylitis of the humerus. METHODS:A total of 25 athletes with lateral epicondylitis of the humerus were enrolled in this study and randomized into two groups:13 subjects receiving instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization as the experimental group and 12 subjects receiving massage therapy as the control group.The treatment period was 4 weeks,with two sessions per week.Elbow joint visual analog scale,Mayo elbow performance index,elbow range of motion measurement,and forearm strength were measured and recorded in both groups before and after treatment. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Both treatments significantly reduced visual analog scale score of the elbow joint after the first and last treatments(P＜0.05),but the visual analog scale score showed no significant difference between the two groups(P＞0.05).The Mayo elbow performance index showed a significant increase in both groups after the first and last treatments(P＜0.05),but there was no significant difference between the two groups(P＞0.05).In the maximum grip strength test,the maximum grip strength of the experimental group in the vertical direction and during internal and external rotations after treatment was better than that before treatment(P＜0.05),while the control group only showed improved maximum grip strength during internal rotation(P＜0.05),with no significant improvement in maximum grip strength in other states.There was also no significant difference in the maximum grip strength in all the three states between the two groups(P＞0.05).After the last treatment,the range of motion of the elbow joint and the angle of forearm pronation and supination were significantly improved in both intervention groups(P＜0.05).The maximum angle of the elbow joint for flexion was smaller than that before treatment(P＜0.05),and there was no significant difference in each angle of motion between the two groups(P＞0.05).The range of motion of the forearm and elbow joint in both groups were significant improved after the first and last treatment(P＜0.05)and there was no significant difference in difference in the range of motion of the forearm and elbow joint between the two groups(P＞0.05).To conclude,both instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization and massage therapy significantly reduce pain,improve elbow flexibility and increase joint range of motion in patients with lateral epicondylitis of the humerus.However,instrument-assisted soft tissue mobilization is better than massage therapy to improve the maximum grip strength.
RESUMEN
BACKGROUND:Prosthesis restricted selection,soft tissue release,patellar trajectory recovery,and bone defect reconstruction were need to be optimized in total knee arthroplasty for moderate and severe valgus knee.The medial parapatellar approach has disadvantages in the treatment of valgus knee,such as aggravating the medial soft tissue relaxation.In recent years,it has been found that the lateral parapatellar approach has advantages in the treatment of valgus knee,such as exposure and release. OBJECTIVE:To observe the efficacy of the lateral and medial parapatellar approach in total knee arthroplasty for moderate and severe valgus knee,and to explore a more suitable surgical approach for moderate and severe valgus knee. METHODS:Totally 56 patients with moderate and severe valgus knee underwent total knee arthroplasty and would take turns performing surgery through the medial and lateral parapatellar approach according to the order of admission.The lateral group(n=28)underwent total knee arthroplasty through lateral parapatellar approach,and the medial group(n=28)through medial parapatellar approach.Posterior stablized knee prosthesis was used in all patients.The restricted types of prosthesis,thickness of polyethylene,operation time,amount of blood loss,femoro-tibia angle,patellar tilt angle,range of motion,Hospital for Special Surgery score,Western Ontario and McMaster Universities Arthritis Index(WOMAC)score,and complications were collected as observation indexes for statistical analysis. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1)The utilization rate of condyle-restricted prosthesis in the lateral group was significantly lower than that in the medial group.The average thickness of polyethylene liner was lower,and the operation time was shorter in the lateral group compared with the medial group.There were significant differences between the two groups(P<0.05),and there was no significant difference in the amount of surgical bleeding.(2)56 patients were followed up for an average of 2-5 years.There were no signs of prosthesis loosening or bone resorption in all patients.The average patellar tilt angle and femoral tibial angle of the lateral group were lower than those of the medial group,and the average Hospital for Special Surgery score and WOMAC score of the lateral group were higher than those of the medial group,with significant differences(P<0.05).There was no significant difference in the range of motion of the knees between the two groups.(3)Incision fat liquefaction and calf intermuscular venous thrombosis occurred in one case in each group.No infection,poor incision healing,incisional hematoma,prosthesis dislocation,iatrogenic nerve injury,ectopic ossification,or periprosthesis fracture occurred during follow-up.(4)In conclusion,the treatment of moderate and severe valgus knee by lateral parapatellar approach can better protect the tension of the medial soft tissue of the knee,use less condylar restrictive prostheses,and have a more friendly patellar trajectory and higher postoperative function score.

RESUMEN
Background and purpose:Limbs soft tissue sarcoma(STS)is a common malignant tumor,and surgical resection is the main treatment method for it.The concept of barrier made us realize the blocking effect of natural barrier on STS,and we aimed to search for tissues that can act as barrier,and to perform complete resection of surgical margins around the tissue barrier.This study aimed to investigate the feasibility,safety and prognosis of barrier resection in the treatment of limbs STS.Methods:From December 2013 to September 2016,data of 72 patients who underwent barrier resection of STS of extremities in department of oncosurgery,Minhang Branch,Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center were retrospectively analyzed,and the resection margin was sampled.All 72 patients underwent preoperative magnetic resonance imaging(MRI)or computed tomography(CT)design,and the physiological barrier or at least 3 cm distance was found outward from the anatomical location of the tumor.And en bloc excision was performed outside this barrier or at a distance of 3 cm.The influence of postoperative pathological margin,musculoskeletal tumor society(MSTS)score and postoperative complications on the patients were analyzed.The 1-and 3-year locoregional recurrence-free survival(LRFS)rates and sarcoma-specific survival(SSS)rates were evaluated,and the influencing factors were analyzed.This study was approved by the Ethics Committee of Fudan University Shanghai Cancer Center(number:1212117-12&1212117-12-1301).Results:All patients had negative margins.The 1-and 3-year LRFS rates were 98.2%and 93.3%,respectively.The 1-and 3-year SSS rates were 98.4%and 94.2%,respectively.The mean MSTS scores were 28.3 preoperatively and 25.5 postoperatively.Surgical complications were grade 1 to 2 in 20 cases and grade 3 in 1 case,and there were no grade 4 to 5 complications.Conclusion:Based on the combination of clinical,imaging and pathology data,barrier resection,including tumor resection and functional reconstruction,can be applied to the surgical treatment of STS,with good feasibility and safety,reliable margin and satisfactory local control.
RESUMEN
Objective:To evaluate the viability and clinical effect of polyfoliate anterolateral thigh perforator flap (ALTPF) in reconstruction of large soft tissue defect around ankle.Methods:From June 2019 to October 2022, large soft tissue defects around ankle of 11 patients were reconstructed with ALTPF in the Department of Orthopaedics of the First Affiliated Hospital of Nanchang University. The causes of injury were traffic accident in 8 patients and heavy objects in 3 patients. All wounds were large defects (15.0 cm×14.0 cm-30.0 cm×20.0 cm) and combined with various degrees of infection. Intraoperatively, polyfoliate ALTPFs sized 16.0 cm×14.5 cm-23.0 cm×18.5 cm were used in reconstruction of the defects. Deep dead spaces were filled with antibiotic bone cement, and direct suture was performed to close the donor sites or by skin grafting repair. Postoperative follow-ups were scheduled at 1, 3 and 6 months, and 6 monthly thereafter at outpatient clinics and via telephone interviews. The appearance and colour of the flaps and healing of donor sites were recorded together with evaluation of the recovery of ankle motor function according to the ankle-hindfoot rating scale of American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS).Results:All flaps survived. No haematoma or secondary infection occurred at the recipient site after surgery. All donor sites healed primarily. One patient had venous occlusion at the distal end of the polyfoliate ALTPF. The flap survived completely at 1 week after distal venous bloodletting. Postoperative follow-ups lasted 6-24 (15.27±5.21) months. All flaps had good blood supply with satisfactory appearance, similar colour and texture to the recipient sites, and without obvious bloat nor ulceration. Only a linear scar or few skin graft scar was left at the flap donor sites in concealed locations. The mean AOFAS ankle-hindfoot score was (88.36±10.21) point. There were 6 cases of excellent, 4 cases of good, and 1 case of fair.Conclusion:A polyfoliate ALTPF is an ideal flap for reconstruction of soft tissue defects around ankle by converting the length of a flap to the width.
RESUMEN
Objective:To explore the clinical effects of end-to-side anastomosis of non-primary perforating vessels carried by free anterolateral thigh perforator flap (ALTPF) in reconstruction of soft tissue of limb.Methods:Between February 2020 and July 2021, 14 patients with soft tissue defect of limb were admitted in the Department of Hand and Foot Surgery, the First Affiliated Hospital of Wannan Medical College. The patients were 12 males and 2 females, aged between 30 and 69 years old, with a median age of 52 years old. One defect was found in left hand, 7 in left foot and ankle and 6 in right foot and ankle. Wound sizes were 7 cm×7 cm-9 cm×22 cm, all accompanied with exposed tendons, nerves or bone tissue. The size of flaps ranged from 8 cm×8 cm to 10 cm×23 cm. ALTPFs carrying non-primary source vessels were applied in reconstruction of soft tissue defects. The non-primary perforating vessels of ALTPF was anastomosed with the artery in recipient site in an end-to-side fashion and the vein of ALTPF was end-to-end anastomosed with the accompanying vein of the recipient artery. All donor sites were sutured directly. The follow-up was conducted by online reviews via WeChat or by visit of outpatient clinics. Appearance of flap and donor site were observed and the aesthetic satisfaction of the patients recipient sites were assessed subjectively using Likert scale.Results:All 14 ALTPFs survived uneventfully. Wound exudation occurred in 1 flap, and healed after dressing change and drainage. All patients received 9-18 (mean 12.6) months of follow-up. The ALTPFs were in good texture and shape. According to the Likert scale, appearance were excellent in 4 flaps, good in 8 flaps and fair in 2 flaps.Conclusion:Application of free ALTPF of non-primary source vessels with end-to-side anastomosis is not only effective in the reconstruction of limb defects, but also has advantages of reliable blood perfusion and cosmetic appearance.
