ObjectiveTo investigate the feasibil ity and short-term effectiveness of percutaneous endoscopic spine surgery for treatment of lumbar disc herniation with posterior ring apophysis separation. MethodsBetween July 2008 and January 2013, 57 patients with lumbar disc herniation and posterior ring apophysis separation were treated. There were 39 males and 18 females, aged from 13 to 46 years (mean, 26.7 years). Of 57 cases, 29 had a clear trauma history. All patients had single segmental unilateral lumbar disc herniation, and the location was at L4, 5 in 22 cases and at L5, S1 in 35 cases; there were 25 cases of lateral bone fragments and 32 cases of central cortical and cancellous fragments. While fracture located at posterior inferior edge of the vertebrae at L4 level in 9 cases and at L5 level in 8 cases, at posterior superior edge at L5 level in 13 cases and in S1 level in 27 cases. Percutaneous endoscopic surgeries were performed via interlaminar or transforaminal approach from unilaterally symptomatic side for discectomy of lumbar disc herniation and partial or complete resection of free bone fragments. ResultsAccurate positioning was obtained in all patients during operation, and no complication of nerve root injury, hematoma formation, or dural tear occurred. The operation time was 20-85 minutes; the intraoperative fluoroscopy times were 2-15 times, and the blood loss was 3-10 mL. Postoperative radiographic examination showed that bone fragment was not removed in 16 cases, was partly removed in 32 cases, and was completely removed in 9 cases. Disc was completely removed. All patients were followed up 10-64 months (median, 16 months). According to modified Macnab criteria for the evaluation of effectiveness, the results were excellent in 48 cases, good in 6 cases, and fair in 3 cases, and the excellent and good rate was 94.7%. ConclusionPercutaneous endoscopic spine surgery through unilaterally symptomatic approach has advantages of small tissue damage and lumbar structure damage, less bleeding, and shorter recovery time. It has a good short-term effectiveness, but long-term effectiveness need further follow-up.
The choice of the graft conduit for coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) has significant implications both in the short-and long-term. The patency of a coronary conduit is closely associated with an uneventful postoperative course, better long-term patient survival and superior freedom from re-intervention. The internal mammary artery is regarded as the primary conduit for CABG patients, given its association with long-term patency and survival. However, long saphenous vein (LSV) continues to be utilized universally as patients presenting for CABG often have multiple coronary territories requiring revascularization. Traditionally, the LSV has been harvested by creating incisions from the ankle up to the groin termed open vein harvesting (OVH). However, such harvesting methods are associated with incisional pain and leg wound infections. In addition, patients find such large incisions to be cosmetically unappealing. These concerns regarding wound morbidity and patient satisfaction led to the emergence of endoscopic vein harvesting (EVH). Published experience comparing OVH with EVH suggests decreased wound related complications, improved patient satisfaction, shorter hospital stay, and reduced postoperative pain at the harvest site following EVH. Despite these reported advantages concerns regarding risk of injury at the time of harvest with its potential detrimental effect on vein graft patency and clinical outcomes have prevented universal adoption of EVH. This review article provides a detailed insight into the technical aspects, outcomes, concerns, and controversies associated with EVH.
Objective To invest igate the ef fect iveness and signi f icance of percutaneous endoscopic discectomy followed by interbody fusion using B-Twin expandable spinal spacer for degenerative lumbosacral disc disease. Methods Between January 2007 and August 2008, 21 patients with degenerative lumbosacral disc disease were treated with endoscopic discectomy followed by interbody fusion using B-Twin expandable spinal spacer. Among them, there were 13 males and 8 females with an average age of 52 years (range, 28-79 years). And the disease duration ranged from 3 months to 40 years (median, 9 months). The affected segments included T11, 12, T12-L1, L1, 2, and L2, 3 in 1 case respectively, L4, 5 in 4 cases, and L5, S1 in 13 cases. All patients had intractable low back pain or lower extremity radicular symptoms. The placement methods of B-Twin expandable spinal spacer were double sides in 15 cases and single side in 6 cases. Oswestry Disabil ity Index (ODI) and Macnab grading were used to determine the function recovery after operation. And Suk’s standard was used to determine the fusion effects by X-ray. Results All 21 patients were followed up 18 months to 3 years (mean, 23.8 months). Sciatica symptoms disappeared after operation in 19 cases, no significant improvement occurred in 2 cases of thoracic disease. The ODI scores were 79% ± 16% at preoperation, 30% ± 9% at 1 month, 26% ± 10% at 3 months, 21% ± 12% at 6 months, and 20% ± 10% at 18 months after operation, showing significant differences between pre- and postoperation (P lt; 0.05). According to Macnab grading at 6 months postoperatively, the results were excellent in 14 cases, good in 5 cases, and fair in 2 cases with an excellent and good rate of 90.5%. According to Suk et al. standard, the results were excellent in 1 case, good in 19 cases, and poor in 1 case with an excellent and good rate of 95.2%. The muscle strength of the lower extremities had no improvement in 1 case of T11, 12 disc protrusion; pedicle screws fixation and decompression laminectomy were given after 6 months, but no improvement was achieved during follow-up. Protrusion recurred after 4 months in 1 case of L4, 5 disc protrusion, then was cured by laminectomy discectomy. The remaining patients achieved postoperative rel ief. Conclusion Endoscope combined with interbody fusion is a good combination to solve lumbar instabil ity. B-Twin expandable spinal spacer is a minimally invasive fusion choice of L4, 5 and L5, S1.
To evaluate the effectiveness of interrupt percutaneous endoscopy lumbar discectomy (PELD) through interlaminar approach for L5, S1 disc protrusion. Methods Between November 2006 and August 2010, 115 patients with L5, S1 disc protrusion were treated, including 79 males and 36 females with an average age of 38 years (range, 14-79 years). All patients showed the dominated symptom of the S1 nerve root. The working channel was establ ished by puncturing through interlaminar approach under the local anesthesia. After the needle was used to make sure no nerve root or dural sac on working face, the disc tissue was excised directly by bl ind sight. Then the nerve root decompression was observed through the endoscope. In patients with free type, fragment compression was observed through the endoscope, and the disc tissue around the nerve roots was removed, then the free disc tissue around intervertebral space was excised. Results One patient who failed to puncture changed to miniopen discectomy; 3 patients who failed changed to post lateral approach; and the others underwent interrupt PELD through interlaminar approach. Eighty patients were followed up 18 months on average (range, 12-36 months). The average Oswestry Disabil ity Index (ODI) was reduced to 13% ± 5% at 12 months after operation and to 12% ± 8% at last follow- up from 73% ± 12% at preoperation, showing significant differences (P lt; 0.01). According to modified Macnab ,s criterion, the results were excellent in 59 cases, good in 15 cases, fair in 3 cases, and poor in 3 cases at last follow-up, and the excellent and good rate was 92.5%. Conclusion For the treatment of disc protrusion at the L5, S1 level, interrupt PELD through interlaminar approach should be ideal with short operation time, small trauma, and quick recovery.

ObjectiveTo analyze the effectiveness of direct screw repair for lumbar spondylolysis by using intraoperative O-arm based navigation and microendoscopic techniques. MethodsBetween February 2012 and May 2014, 11 consecutive patients with lumbar spondylolysis were treated with Buck's procedure by the aid of intraoperative O-arm based navigation and minimally invasive approach. The debridement and autograft of pars interarticularis defects was performed under microendoscopy. There were 7 males and 4 females, with an average age of 28.4 years (range, 19-47 years) and an average disease duration of 10.5 months (range, 8-23 months); no nerve symptoms or signs of lower limb was observed. The radiological examinations showed single level bilateral lumbar spondylolysis without obvious disc degeneration, lumbar instability, or spondylolisthesis. Isthmic injury located at L4 in 2 cases and at L5 in 9 cases. Of 11 patients, 7 were rated as grade 2 disc degeneration, and 4 as grade 3 disc degeneration according to the modified Pfirrmann classification system. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, and complications were recorded. The fluoroscopic examinations were performed to assess defect repair and screw position. Visual analogue scale (VAS) score was used to evaluate the improvement of low back pain. ResultsThe average operation time was 147.6 minutes (range, 126-183 minutes). The average blood loss was 54.9 mL (range, 40-85 mL). Primary healing of incision was obtained. There was no complication of nerve root injury, dural tear, or infection. Three patients had pain at donor site postoperatively, and pain disappeared within 3 weeks. The average follow-up duration was 15.7 months (range, 10-23 months). VAS score of low back pain was significantly decreased from preoperative 7.1±2.3 to 1.8±0.4 at last follow-up (t=13.42, P=0.01). Of 22 isthmic bone grafting, bilateral isthmic bony fusion was achieved in 7 patients and unilateral isthmic bony fusion in 3 patients at 6-10 months (mean, 7.9 months). One patient failed bilateral isthmic bony fusion, and had bony resorption. ConclusionDebridement, autograft, and percutaneous intralaminar screw fixation by microendoscopy and O-arm based navigation may provide safe and effective treatment for spondylolysis. Minimally invasive direct repair can obtain satisfactory effectiveness.

Method Between March 2003 and October 2008, 89 patients (89 ears) underwent mastoidectomy in Department of Otolaryngology Head and Neck Surgery, West China Hospital of Sichuan University and in Department of Otolaryngology, Nuclear Industry 416 Hospital of Chengdu. The patients were randomly divided into two groups by simple randomization (trial group and control group). Forty-five patients in the trial group underwent the dressing change under otoendoscope, while 44 patients in the control group under the routine method. The ear drying rate and the ear drying time in the two groups were observed. Results The ear drying rate was 93.3% (42 dry ears)in the trial group, and was 90.9% (40 dry ears) in the control group; the difference between the two groups was not significant (Pgt;0.01). The ear drying time was (50.8±13.4) days in the trial group and was (60.7±12.2) days in the control groups; the difference between the two groups was significant (Plt;0.001). Conclusion Dressing change under the otoendoscope after mastoidectomy may not improve the ear drying rate but can shorten the ear drying time.
