Objective To investigate the early effectiveness of transiliac-transsacral screws internal fixation assisted by augmented reality navigation system HoloSight (hereinafter referred to as “computer navigation system”) in the treatment of posterior pelvic ring injuries. MethodsA retrospective analysis was made in the 41 patients with posterior pelvic ring injuries who had been treated surgically with transiliac-transsacral screws between June 2022 and June 2023. The patients were divided into navigation group (18 cases, using computer navigation system to assist screw implantation) and freehand group (23 cases, using C-arm X-ray fluoroscopy to guide screw implantation) according to the different methods of transiliac-transsacral screws placement. There was no significant difference in gender, age, body mass index, causes of injuries, Tile classification of pelvic fracture, days from injury to operation, usage of unlocking closed reduction technique between the two groups (P>0.05). The time of screw implantation, the fluoroscopy times, the guide wire adjustment times of each screw, and the incidence of complications were recorded and compared between the two groups. The position of the transiliac-transsacral screw was scanned by CT within 2 days after operation, and the position of the screw was classified according to Gras standard. ResultsThe operation was successfully completed in both groups. The time of screw implantation, the fluoroscopy times, and the guide wire adjustment times of each screw in the navigation group were significantly less than those in the freehand group (P<0.05). There were 2 cases of incision infection in the freehand group, and the incision healed by first intention after active dressing change; there was no screw-related complication in the navigation group during operation and early period after operation; the difference in incidence of complications between the two groups (8.7% vs. 0) was not significant (P=0.495). According to the Gras standard, the screw position of the navigation group was significantly better than that of the freehand group (P<0.05). ConclusionCompared with the traditional freehand method, the computer navigation system assisted transiliac-transsacral screws internal fixation in the treatment of posterior pelvic ring injuries has advantages of improving the accuracy of screw implantation and reducing radiation damage and the time of screw implantation.
ObjectiveTo investigate and compare the advantages and disadvantages of laparoscopic cholecystolithotomy and laparoscopic cholecystectomy for patients with gallbladder stone. MethodsThe eligible patients with gallbladder stones hospitalized in our department between January 2007 and December 2011 were included, and all of them received either laparoscopic cholecystolithotomy (observation group) or laparoscopic cholecystectomy (control group) minimally-invasive surgery. The operation time, bleeding volume, enterokinesia recovery time, hospital stay, post-operative complication and follow-up results were compared between the two groups. ResultsA total of 148 patients were included, with 68 patients in the observation group and 80 patients in the control group. In this cohort, the success rate of surgery for the observation group and the control group was 100.0% (68/68) and 98.8% (79/80), respectively; and the success rate of complete stone removal was 100% for both two groups. B-ultrasound examination after 2 weeks of treatment showed that gallbladder wall was normal and gallbladder contraction rate was more than 30% for all patients with laparoscopic cholecystolithotomy. The operation time was (49.6±5.2) minutes for the observation group and (50.5±6.2) minutes for the control group, and bleeding volume was (9.5±1.4) mL for the observation group and (50.2±8.1) mL for the control group; the difference in bleeding volume was significant between the two groups (P<0.05). The difference in enterokinesia recovery time[(33.9±2.2) and (34.4±2.6) minutes] or hospital stay[(3.4±1.0) and (3.6±1.2) days] between the observation group and the control group was not significant (both P >0.05). The post-operative complications of bleeding, bile leakage and wound infection were not observed in both two groups, and all patients were followed up for 6 to 12 months with no stone recurrence; and only 2.7% of patients (1/37) had stone recurrence after 3-year follow-up. ConclusionBoth laparoscopic cholecystolithotomy and laparoscopic cholecystectomy procedures are safe and efficient. However, laparoscopic cholecystolithotomy not only reserves gallbladder but also has superiority of less bleeding volume.
ObjectiveTo summarize experience of laparoscopy combined with choledochoscopy common bile duct exploration for patients with schistosomiasis liver cirrhosis with common bile duct stones. MethodThe clinical data of 45 patients with schistosomiasis liver cirrhosis combined with common bile duct stones (liver function Child-Pugh grade A and B) admitted in this hospital from September 2012 to September 2015 were analyzed retrospectively. ResultsTwenty cases were successfully treated by laparoscopy combined with choledochoscopy (laparoscope group), 25 cases were treated by conventional open common bile duct exploration (laparotomy group). Two cases were converted to laparotomy due to bleeding during laparoscopic operation. The mean operation time, intraoperative bleeding, postopera-tive hospitalization time, and postoperative total complications rate had no significant differences between these two groups (P>0.05). There were 2 cases of pulmonary infection and 1 case of incision infection in the laparoscope group, and 1 case of grade A bile leakage and 1 case of pulmonary infection in the laparotomy group, there was no common bile duct stone residual in these two groups. ConclusionAlthough laparoscopic surgery is more difficult for schistosomiasis liver cirrhosis combined with common bile duct stones patients, it is safe and feasible. Appropriate perioperative management and precise laparoscopic and choledochoscopic operation are key to success of operation.
ObjectiveTo explore the practical feasibility of the weaving technique for pectus carinatum.MethodsFrom January 2011 to December 2018, a total of 51 patients with pectus carinatum, including 47 males and 4 females at age of 9-29 (13.7±2.9) years, were applied with minimally invasive waving technique for the correction. The steel plate was inserted through the subcutaneous layer, intercostal space and over the sternal surface under direct thoracoscopic vision. The number of implanted steel plates was determined by the degree of chest wall deformity. The steel plate was removed 2 years after surgery.ResultsAll the operations were successfully completed, the average operation time was 63.9±15.8 min, the amount of bleeding was 19.8±8.8 mL, and the duration of postoperative hospitalization was 4.6±1.6 d. The adverse events included intercostal artery injury (n=2), pneumothorax (n=4), pleural effusion (n=3) and skin rupture (n=1). And there were 29 patients of moderate pain (numerical rating scale 4-6 points) on the first day after surgery, but no patient was asked to remove the steel palate due to intolerable discomfort. All patients were followed up after plate placement. Of the 51 patients, the plates were removed in 37 patients until 2 years after placement, and the duration of postoperative hospitalization was 1.4±0.5 d. After 33 (1-48) months of routine follow-up after the removal of the plate, 22 patients achieved excellent outcomes and 9 patients with good outcomes. Besides, there were 5 patients with fair outcome and 1 patient with poor outcome. No adverse effect was found in growth and development after the steel plate placement.ConclusionMinimally invasive weaving technique is a safe, feasible, effective and individualized operation for pectus carinatum with substantial thoracic reconstruction.
Objective To summarize the recent minimally invasive approach for cervical spondylotic radiculopathy (CSR). Methods The recent l iterature at home and abroad concerning minimally invasive approach for CSR was reviewed and summarized. Results There were two techniques of minimally invasive approach for CSR at peresent: percutaneous puncture techniques and endoscopic techniques. The degenerate intervertebral disc was resected or nucleolysis by percutaneouspuncture technique if CSR was caused by mild or moderate intervertebral disc herniations. The cervical microendoscopicdiscectomy and foraminotomy was an effective minimally invasive approach which could provide a clear view. The endoscopy techniques were suitable to treat CSR caused by foraminal osteophytes, lateral disc herniations, local l igamentum flavum thickening and spondylotic foraminal stenosis. Conclusion The minimally invasive procedure has the advantages of simple handl ing, minimally invasive and low incidence of compl ications. But the scope of indications is relatively narrow at present.
Objective?To approach feasibility, safety, and the application range of pure laparoscopic resection (PLR), hand-assisted laparoscopic resection (HALR), and robotic liver resection (RLR) in the minimally invasive liver resection (MILR). Methods?The clinical data of 128 patients underwent MILR in the Surgical Department of the Shanghai Ruijin Hospital from September 2004 to January 2012 were analyzed retrospectively. According to the different methods, the patients were divided into PLR group, HALR group, and RLR group. The intraoperative findings and postoperative recovery of patients in three groups were compared.?Results?There were 82 cases in PLR group, 3 cases of which were transferred to open surgery;the mean operating time was (145.4±54.4) minutes (range:40-290 minutes);the mean blood loss was (249.3±255.7) ml (range:30-1 500 ml);abdominal infection was found in 3 cases and biliary fistula in 5 cases after operation, but all recovered after conservative treatment;the mean length of hospital stay was (7.1±3.8) days (range:2-34 days). There were 35 cases in HALR group, 3 cases of which were transferred to open surgery;the mean operating time was (182.7±59.2) minutes (range:60-300 minutes);the mean blood loss was (754.3±785.2) ml (range:50-3 000 ml);abdominal infection was found in 1 case, biliary fistula in 2 cases, and operative incision infection in 2 cases after operation, but all recovered after conservative treatment;the mean length of hospital stay was (15.4±3.7) days (range:12-30 days). There were 11 cases in RLR group, 2 cases of which were transferred to open surgery; the mean operating time was (129.5±33.5) minutes (range:120-200 minutes); the mean blood loss was (424.5±657.5) ml (range:50-5 000 ml); abdominal infection was found in 1 case and biliary fistula in 1 case after operation, but all recovered after conservative treatment; the mean length of hospital stay was (6.4±1.6) days (range:5-9 days). The operating time (P=0.001) and length of hospital stay (P=0.000) of the RLR group were shortest and the blood loss (P=0.000) of the PLR group was least among three groups. Conclusions?Minimally invasive resection is a safe and feasible. Different surgical procedures should be chosen according to different cases. The robotic liver resection provides new development for treatment of liver tumor.
