BACKGROUND: Traditional open suture for the treatment of acute closed Achilles tendon rupture can significantly reduce the risk of gastrocnemius nerve injury and re-rupture of Achilles tendon, but this suture method can increase incision-related complications and result in tissue adhesion. Although the Krackow suture method is more powerful, it is difficult to perform minimally invasive surgery with small incisions, and excessive locks to strengthen the suture may affect the blood supply in the Achilles tendon. The percutaneous woven modified Kessler suture method is not only smooth, flat, and relatively strong, but also has strong tension. This is a minimally invasive method that can achieve good functional recovery of the Achilles tendon. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the clinical effect of percutaneous woven modified Kessler suture of a small medial incision of the Achilles tendon inthe treatment of acute closed Achilles tendon rupture in comparison with the open suture method. METHODS: Clinical data of 72 patients with acute closed Achilles tendon rupture diagnosed at Department of Hand and Foot Surgery, the Second Affiliated Hospital of Inner Mongolia Medical University between June 2015 and June 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. All patients were divided into open group and minimally invasive group of medial Achilles tendon (n=36 per group). The operation time, hospitalization time, blood loss, length of incision, wound healing, complications, and clinical efficacy were compared between the two groups. The study was approved by the Ethics Committee of the Second Affiliated Hospital of Inner Mongolia Medical University in China. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Compared with the open group, the minimally invasive group of medial Achilles tendon had shorter operation time and hospitalization time, less blood loss, and shorter incision length (P< 0.05). The American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) and Achilles tendon total rupture (ATRS) scores of the minimally invasive group of medial Achilles tendon were significantly higher than that of the open group at 6 months after surgery (P < 0.05), but there was no significant difference between the two groups in the ATRS score and the AOFAS score at 1 year after surgery (P ˃0.05). There was no significant difference in the excellent and good rate between the two groups at 1 year after surgery (P˃0.05). The overall complication rate of the minimally invasive group of medial Achilles tendon was significantly lower than that of the open group(P< 0.05), and incision-related complications were confirmed to be the main postoperative complications. To conclude, compared with the open modified Kessler suture, percutaneous woven modified Kessler suture for the small medial incision of the Achillestendon has some benefits, including simpler operation, lower price, more prominent perioperative index, lower incidence of postoperative incision-related complications, and better short-term efficacy.

BACKGROUND: Lipid metabolism and coagulation disorders as well as cell apoptosis have been shown to be closely related to the pathogenesis of steroid-induced avascular necrosis of the femoral head (SANFH). Meanwhile, pravastatin has been reported partially to exhibit the effects of lipid-lowering, anticoagulation and interfering the osteocyte apoptosis. OBJECTIVE: To investigate whether pravastatin can reduce the incidence of the early stage of SANFH in rabbits, and whether it can be used as an effective target for early intervention of SIFHN. METHODS: Sixty male New Zealand rabbits were randomly divided into three groups: model group (n=24, early stage of SANFH), intervention group (n=24, early stage of SANFH treated with pravastatin) and control group (n=12, treated with same volume of normal saline). The rabbit model of early stage of SANFH was established by injection of hormone combined with horse serum. All the rabbits were examined for serum lipids and coagulation indicators and underwent MRI examination at 2, 4 and 6 weeks after modeling. The rabbits were sacrificed for histopathological observation under light microscope. The ratio of empty lacuna was calculated, apoptosis of osteocytes was determined by TUNEL assay, and apoptotic index was calculated. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Compared with the model group, the necrotic degree in the intervention group was similar in the gross specimens and MRI performance, and there was no significant difference. The levels of cholesterol, triglyceride and low density lipoprotein in the intervention group were significantly higher than those in the control group at 2 and 4 weeks after modeling (P < 0.05). There was insignificant difference in all above levels between intervention and control groups at 6 weeks after modeling (P > 0.05), but the levels in the intervention group were significantly lower than those in the model group (P < 0.05). There were no significant differences in the prothrombin time, and tissue plasminogen activator levels among groups at different time points after modeling (P > 0.05). Histopathological results revealed that the number of adipocytes and empty lacuna in the bone marrow cavity of the intervention group was less than that in the model group, and the sparse degree of trabecular bone was relatively mild. The ratio of empty lacuna in the intervention group was significantly higher than that in the control group at 2 and 4 weeks after modeling (P < 0.05). The ratio of empty lacuna in the intervention group was significantly lower than that in the model group at 6 weeks after modeling (P < 0.05), but had no significant difference from that in the control group (P > 0.05). The apoptotic index in the intervention group was significantly higher than that in the control group at different time points after modeling (P < 0.05), but there was no significant difference between intervention and model groups (P > 0.05). To conclude, pravastatin cannot reduce the risk of early SANFH, and cannot be used as an effective target for early intervention of SANFH. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]

Objective To investigate the risk factors for pancreatic fistula after pancreaticoduodenectomy (PD), and to provide a reference for the prevention and treatment of pancreatic fistula after PD in clinical treatment. MethodsA retrospective analysis was performed for the clinical data of 75 patients who underwent PD in Huadong Hospital, Fudan University from January 2014 to December 2015. The influencing factors for pancreatic fistula were analyzed, and the incidence rate of pancreatic fistula was compared between patients undergoing laparoscopic or open PD. The chi-square test or Fisher′s exact test was used for univariate analysis, and the logistic regression model was used for multivariate analysis. ResultsOf all patients, 21 (28%) had pancreatic fistula, among whom 7 had grade A pancreatic fistula, 11 had grade B pancreatic fistula, and 3 had grade C pancreatic fistula. The univariate analysis showed that age, presence or absence of pancreatic duct dilatation, and amylase level in drainage fluid on day 1 after surgery were influencing factors for pancreatic fistula after surgery (χ2=6.868, 12.990, and 4.383, P=0.009, P＜0.001, and P=0.004). The multivariate analysis showed that age ≥65 years (95%CI: 2.551-187.550, P=0.005) and absence of pancreatic duct dilatation (95%CI: 5.210-487.321, P=0.001) were risk factors for pancreatic fistula after surgery. An amylase level of ≥5000 IU/L in drainage fluid on day 1 after surgery had a certain predictive value for the development of pancreatic fistula after surgery. There was no significant difference in the incidence rate of pancreatic fistula between patients undergoing laparoscopic or open PD (18.8% vs 30.5%, P＞0.05). Conclusion As for patients with an age of ≥65 years, absence of pancreatic duct dilatation, and an amylase level of ≥5000 IU/L in drainage fluid on day 1 after surgery, treatment should be given as soon as possible to avoid the development of pancreatic fistula.

Objective: To study the expression of IL-1βand TNF- αin tissues of plasma cell mastitis (PCM) and its clinical significance. Methods: 50 cases of patients with PCM who were treated in the Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region People's Hospital from November 2013 to April 2016 were selected as observation group, and selected 23 cases of normal breast tissues those>3 cm from the edge of the inflammatory mass and checked by microscopic examination of the patients as control group. The expression of IL-1 and TNF- in two groups were compared, and the expression and correlation of IL-1 and TNF- in different clinical stages and types were analyzed. Results: Expression levels of IL-1βand TNF-αin tissues in observation group were significantly higher than those in the control group, the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). The levels of IL-1βand TNF-αin patients with acute and subacute stage were significantly higher than those in chronic phase, and the acute phase was significantly higher than that of subacute stage, the difference was statistically significant(P<0.05). The difference of expressions levels of IL-1βand TNF-αin different clinical classification was not statistically significant in observation group (P>0.05). According to the PEARSON analysis, the the expression of IL-1βand TNF-αwas positively correlated in patients with different clinical stages in observation group (r=0.860, P=0.000). Conclusions: The expressions of IL-1β and TNF-αin PCM tissue is high, and they play a synergistic role on the development of PCM. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
