RESUMO
Objective To investigate the effects of different anesthesia methods on immunity in patients underwent radical resection of rectal carcinoma.Methods 82 patients underwent radical resection of rectal carcinoma were divided into two groups,each group had 41 cases.A group received total intravenous anesthesia while B group received total intravenous anesthesia combined with eqidural anesthesia.CD3+,CD4+,CD4+/CD8+,CD3+HLA-DR+and NK cells were inspected before induction of anesthesia(T0),2 h after skin incision(T1),2 h(T2) and 24 h(T3) after the end of operation.The T-lymphocyte subsets,activated T cells and NK cells were measured by flow cytometry. Visual analogue scale(VAS) was observed at T2 and T3.Results The VAS score of T2,T3 in A group[(3.86 ± 0.46)points,(3.62 ±0.26)points]were higher than those in B group[(1.67 ±0.57)points,(1.94 ±0.42)points] (all P<0.05).The percentages of CD3+,CD4+,CD4+/CD8+,CD3+HLA-DR+and NK cells of T1,T2,T3 were lower than those of T0 in A group(all P<0.05);The percentages of CD3+,CD4+,CD4+/CD8+,CD3+HLA-DR+and NK cells of T1, T2 were lower than those of T0 in B group ( all P <0.05 );The percentages of CD3+, CD4+, CD4+/CD8+, CD3+HLA-DR+ and NK cells of T1, T2, T3 in A group were lower than those in B group ( all P <0.05 ). Conclusion Total intravenous anesthesia combined with eqidural anesthesia produces less immune suppression than total intravenous anesthesia.
RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the possibility and safety of balloon kyphoplasty for the aged osteoporotic thoracolumbar burst fractures. Methods From October 2007 to December 2012, 78 patients with aged osteoporotic thoracolumbar burst fractures were treated by balloon kyphoplasty. The inflatable balloon was inserted through pedicle of vertebal arch to make fracture reduction, then the centrum was stuffed with bone cement. The whole procedure was pinpointed and detected by C-arm x-ray machine. Results All operations were completed successfully. The lumbar and back pain of the patients relieved obviously. The quality of patients' life was significantly improved. Imaging examinations revealed that the vertebrae altitude was recovered and the kyphosis was corrected obviously. Conclusion Balloon kyphoplasty is effective to treat the aged osteoporotic thoracolumbar burst fractures. But the operation had certain risk, we must do a good job in preoperative preparation, strictly handle surgical indication and accurately operate.
RESUMO
Objective To explore the effect of posterior internal fixation surgery with pedicle screw/rod instrument system in the treatment of thoracic vertebrae fracture-dislocation complicated with a severe thoracic injury. Methods In the 8 cases examined, the range of injury was from T5 to T9, including 1 case of compression fracture-dislocation and 7 cases of burst fracture-dislocation according to Hanley and Eskey’ s classification. According to Frankle’ s classification, 4 were grade A, 3 were grade B, 1 was grade C. All cases were complicated with multiple fractures of bilateral ribs, pulmonary contusion and haemothorax. After the pathogenic condition being stable, reduction and internal fixation were performed with the posterior surgery pedicle screw/rod instrument system. In 5 cases, spinal canal anterolateral decompression was performed homeochronously. The intervals between accidents and operation were 3 to 9 days. Results Operations were performed safely in all patients. The reposition of the alignment and height of vertebraes was good. Postoperative CT scanning showed: in 2 cases, bone block occupied about 10% volume of vertebral canal, and 1 was 50%. The follow-up were 4～36 months, averaging 15 months. No postreduction disposition, internal fixation loosening or breakage occurred. The Frankel’ s classification of neurological function was improved by 1 grade on average. Conclusions After a positive treatment of thoracic injury, it is safe and feasible to treat the fresh thoracic vertebrae fracture-dislocation with the posterior surgery pedicle screw/rod instrument system, and the curative effects are satisfied.
