Résumé
Facial paralysis causes both physical pain and psychological distress to patients. It is difficult for a patient with facial paralysis to engage with a normal social life and at work. Progresses have been made in recent years in the treatment of facial paralysis. More attentions have been caught by masseteric to facial nerve transposition, which has advantages of adjacency in location, abundancy in nerve supply and reliability in the outcome and now has deemed an important option of facial reanimation. It has not been long since the application of the technique of masseteric to facial nerve transposition in China, therefore it still lacks a universal guidance on practice. In order to achieve the aim of better quality control and popularisation of the technique, hereby a consensus with suggestions on facial reanimation with masseteric to facial nerve transposition is proposed as the reference for surgeons specialised in facial reanimation. This consensus is proposed, discussed and drafted by experts from plastic and reconstructive surgery, oral and maxillofacial surgery, head and neck surgery and neurosurgery.

Objective:To assess the severity of hypoxic-ischemic brain damage (HIBD) in neonatal rats and predict the occurrence of subsequent neurobehavioral abnormalities after brain injury by scoring and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI).Methods:7-day-old of 60 Sprague-Dawley (SD) rats were randomly divided into control group (14 rats), sham operation group (14 rats) and HIBD model group (32 rats). HIBD model was established by right common carotid artery dissection with Rice-Vannucci method and hypoxia. Within 24 h after modeling, the rats in the model group were evaluated by general condition score and Longa score, and the surviving rats with moderate and severe HIBD were selected for the experiment. 24 h after modeling, 5 rats of the model group were randomly selected for 2,3,5-triphenyltetrazole chloride staining to verify cerebral infarction. 1 week after modeling, 6 rats from each group were randomly selected for hematoxylin-eosin staining to observe HIBD brain injury. 4 weeks after modeling, 4 rats were randomly selected from the control group and the sham operation group, and 8 rats from the remaining model group were used to evaluate the volume of brain damage by MRI. 5-6 weeks after modeling, the remaining 8 rats from each group were subjected to the Cylinder test, and at 13 weeks, they underwent the Morris water maze test to evaluate their neurobehavior.Results:In HIBD model group, 19 rats with moderate to severe HIBD were selected from 32 rats. 24 h after modeling, cerebral infarction was verified in all rats, indicating moderate to severe HIBD. Brain tissue pathology observed 1 week after modeling revealed predominantly gray matter brain damage. MRI showed that 7 out of 8 rats had moderate to severe HIBD. Compared to the control and sham operation groups, the model group exhibited a significant decrease in the usage rate of the left forelimb in the Cylinder test at 5-6 weeks after modeling ( P<0.05), and the latency period in Morris water maze test was significantly prolonged at 13 weeks after modeling ( P<0.05), and the times of crossing platform quadrant were significantly reduced ( P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the right brain injury volume between 24 h and 4 weeks model group ( P>0.05). The brain injury volume in model group was negatively correlated with the usage rate of left forelimb in cylinder test at 5-6 weeks and the times of crossing platform quadrant in Morris water maze test at 13 weeks ( P<0.05), and positively correlated with latency period in Morris water maze test at 13 weeks ( P<0.05). Conclusions:Within 24 h of HIBD modeling, the severity of brain injury can be preliminarily predicted by general condition score and Longa score. 4 weeks after modeling, in the chronic phase of brain injury, MRI was proved to be an excellent predictor for mid-term and long-term neurobehavioral abnormalities in HIBD rats.

Objective@#To explore the efficacy of ossiculoplasty surgery under oto-endoscope in patients of conductive hearing loss with intact tympanic membrane.@*Methods@#A retrospective study was conducted. The clinical data of 45 patients with conductive hearing loss who had undergone simple ossiculoplasty surgery between October 2015 and December 2017 from five hospitals in China (West China Hospital of Sichuan University, General Hospital of the People′s Liberation Army, Shanghai Ninth People′s Hospital, Shanghai JiaoTong University School of Medicine, Xijing Hospital, Fourth Military Medical University and Shenzhen Sixth People′s Hospital) were collected. There were 28 males and 17 females, with the age ranging from 12 to 69 years old. The tympanic membranes of those patients were intact before surgery. The lesion only occurred in the ossicular chain from CT and intraoperative exploration. The cases of otosclerosis, tympanosclerosis, cholesteatoma of middle ear, chronic suppurative otitis media, and tumor of middle ear were excluded. The postoperative complications, hearing improvements and operation time were observed. SPSS 23.0 software was used for statistic analysis.@*Results@#There was neither sensorineural hearing loss nor facial paralysis after surgery in this group. Seven patients had transient mild tinnitus after surgery and gradually relieved during the follow-up period. Nine patients developed dysgeusia after surgery. Two patients developed dizziness after surgery, and the symptoms were mild and relieved during 1 week without special intervention. The air-bone gap (ABG) range of pre-operation was 22.5-45.7 dB, and the average ABG was (25.3±8.6) dB. The ABG range in the third month after surgery was 5.7-26.8 dB, and the average ABG was (9.3±8.6) dB. The mean value of ABG was significantly lower in the third month after surgery compared with that of pre-operation (t=2.31, P<0.05).

Résumé
Disfunction of Eustachian tube will cause negative pressure of middle ear, which may result in tympanic membrane retraction pocket. Severe pocket can consequently cause cholesteatoma. In clinical practice it is not uncommon to find a cholesteatoma limited to epitympanum, with an otherwise normal pars tensa and mesotympanum. This review explains the theory of "selective epitympanic dysventilation syndrome" developed by endoscopic technique. In the majority of the patients, the only ventilation pathway to the epitympanum is through the tympanic isthmus. Even if Eustachian tube function has recovered, an isthmus blockage with selective epitympanic dysventilation may lead to common attic cholesteatoma.

Objective To explore the safety and efficacy of intrathecal administration of adipose stem cells de-rived from bioactive secretome (ASCBS)in treatment of whiter matter injury (WMI)in the preterm infants. Methods Sixty - three cases of WMI were recruited according to the uniform standards from multiple medical centers and they were divided into 3 gestational age (GA)subgroups,which were 21 cases in group A (GA 24 - 28 + 6 ),20 cases in group B (GA 29 - 32 + 6 ),and 22 cases in group C (GA 33 - 36 + 6 ). The patients were randomly divided into treatment groups and control groups by tossing coins. The treatment groups received lumbar puncture followed with ASCBS intra-thecal injection once daily for 3 consecutive days. Follow - up study included Neonatal Behavioral Neurological Assess-ment (NBNA)at term - equivalent age and neurodevelopment at corrected age of 6 - month. Neurodevelopment was assessed by using the Bayley Scales of Infant Development and Peabody Developmental Motor Scale. The survival rates, NBNA scores,mental development index (MDI),psychomotor develop index (PDI),total motor development quotient, gross motor development quotient and fine motor development among each subgroup were compared. Results Sixty -three cases were recruited,including 31 in the treatment group and 32 in the control group. Only 1 case in the treatment groups lost in the follow - up. No clinical side effects were found in the treatment groups. There was no significant diffe-rence in the survival rate and complication in the preterms in all subgroups of the treatment group and control group (all P > 0. 05). The gross and total motor development quotient in the treatment group A was higher than that in the control group A(gross motor development quotient:98. 330 ± 6. 282 in treatment group A,90. 330 ± 3. 777 in control group A, P = 0. 040;total motor development quotient:97. 330 ± 4. 803 in treatment group A,91. 000 ± 4. 472 in control group A,P = 0. 023). The rest findings showed no significant difference between groups. Conclusion The treatment of WMI in preterm infants with ASCBS is safe and can promote the motor development of preterm infants with GA in 24 - 28 weeks.

Objective@#To evaluate the application of combination use of microscope and endoscope in cerebral pontine angle (CPA) surgery.@*Methods@#A total of 72 patients undergone lateral skull base surgeries via endoscope under microscopic control from January 2006 to January 2015 was reviewed respectively. The patients including 35 males and 37 females were composed of 22 cases of vestibular swannnomas, 45 cases of cranial neuropathy and 5 cases of CPA chelesteatoma. Twenty cases of vestibular swannnomas, 15 cases of cranial neuropathy and 2 cases of CPA chelesteatoma undergone the surgery via retrosigmoid approach, while other cases undergone the surgery via retrolabyrinthine approach. Surgical procedures were accomplished under the control of microscope and different angular endoscope with imaging fusion. The surgical results were evaluated according to subjective and objective criteria, and all patients were followed up for 15 years.@*Results@#The symptoms was disappeared in the cranial neuropathy patients, without facial paralysis, complication of other nerves or hearing loss. Twenty-two patients with vestibular schwannomas got total tumor removal without facial palsy or neurological deficits; useful hearing was preserved in 16 of 22 patients (72.7%), and no tumor recurrence was found during 1-5 years follow-up. There was also no facial palsy or other complications in 5 cases of CPA chelesteatoma, which gained completely surgical removal; useful hearing was preserved in 3 of 5 cases of these patients and no recurrence was occurred during 1-1.5 years follow-up.@*Conclusions@#A combination use of endoscope and microscope could combine advantages and avoid disadvantages of two techniques. It can provide better exposure with minimal invasion in CPA surgery, and is especially applicable in surgery for cranial neuropathy, vestibular schwannoma and CPA cholesteatoma, which should be performed through retrosigmoid approach and retrolabyrinthine approach.
Résumé
Over the past 50 years, the focus of acoustic neuroma surgery has shifted from low mortality and tumor resection to retention of neurological function. Hearing preservation is another point in addition to facial nerve function preservation. Hearing preservation rates overall ranged from 2% to 93% in recent studies. Characteristics such as approach, pre-operative neurological function, tumor size, nerve of origin and fundal fluid of the internal auditory canal have been reported as possible influencing factors. This review provides a summary of recent studies and describes the prognostic factors that predict hearing preservation.
