Objective:To compare the clinical value of CTA and CDU in perforator flap of peroneal artery.Methods:From February 2013 to October 2016, 47 patients who suffered with soft tissue defects and were hospitalised in the Department of Orthopaedics, the 920th Hospital of Joint Logistic Support Force of Chinese PLA were retrospectively reviewed and evaluated. All the defects were reconstructed by the perforator flap of peroneal artery. All patients received preoperative CTA and CDU scans before surgery. Appropriate perforator vessels were selected and the locating points in body surface and external diameters of the perforator vessels were recorded and compared with intraoperative findings. SPSS 22.0 statistical software was used for data analysis. P<0.05 was considered statistically significant. Results:The intraoperative coincidence rate of the proposed perforator vessels was 97.87% for CDU and 95.74% for CTA, with no significant difference between the 2 groups( P>0.05). It was found that the preoperative CTA and CDU measurements were consistent with the actual intraoperative measurements, and there was no significant difference between the 2 groups( P>0.05). For CTA combined with CDU, an intraoperative coincidence rate was 100% in the location of peroneal perforating vessels. All flaps were followed-up for 1 to 18(mean 13.5) months. All the flaps survived well with good texture and appearance without complication. Conclusion:CDU and CTA are reliable and useful in preoperative vascular evaluation of peroneal perforator flap, and both can be used in a complementary or combined manner.

Objective:To investigate the application value of mixed reality (MR) technology in reconstruction of soft tissue defect of extremities with free anterolateral thigh flap(ALTF).Methods:From December 2019 to November 2021, a retrospective analysis was performed on 10 patients who had undergone ALTF reconstruction of soft tissue defects in extremities in Department of Orthopaedics, the First People's Hospital of Yunnan Province. Four patients had the defects in hand and 6 patients in foot and ankle. For the 6 patients in emergency surgery, the time from injury to admission was 4.0-15.0 hours, with an average of 7.3 hours. Four patients with soft tissue defects caused by chronic infection and ulcers were given debridement, and the soft tissue defects were reconstructed by flap transfer at the second stage. The defect area were from 8.0 cm×5.0 cm to 22.0 cm×8.0 cm. Preoperatively, 3D bone-vessel-flap model was established based on the lower extremity CTA scans. Intraoperatively, MR technology was used to project the 3D model on the flap donor site to observe the virtual profile of vessel shape in real time, to locate the perforator and the course of the perforator, and observe the consistency between the virtual image and the actual anatomy of the perforator. The appearance, texture and colour of the flap were recorded at the last follow-up. Hand function was evaluated by the total activity movement (TAM), and foot and ankle function was evaluated by the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS).Results:The position location and course of perforator vessels were reconstructed successfully in all patients before surgery. The MR technology was used to locate the perforator, and the course of the virtual perforator was consistent with the actual anatomy, and the matching reached 100%. The length of vascular pedicle measured before surgery was at 11.02 cm±1.37 cm. And that measured during surgery was at 11.21 cm±1.23 cm ( P=0.748, t=-0.326). The difference was not statistically significant ( P>0.05). The flap area was at 9.0 cm×6.0 cm to 23.0 cm×9.0 cm. The donor site was sutured directly in one stage. All patients were entered postoperative followed-up for 1 to 24 months, with an average of 13.5 months. All the flaps survived after surgery. The flap with good appearance, colour and texture, and only one linear scar was left in the donor site. According to the TAM of the hand function, 3 cases were excellent and 1 was fair. Foot and ankle function were evaluated according to the AOFAS, 5 cases were in excellent and 1 was good. Conclusion:MR technology applied to the surgery of ALTF can locate the course of the flap vessels in real time, guide the operation, improve the operation efficiency and reduce the risk in surgery.

Objective:To explore the morphology and vessel distribution of the scapholunate interosseous ligament and anatomical basis for the clinical reconstruction of scapholunate interosseous ligament.Methods:From October, 2018 to December, 2018, 12 fresh wrist joint specimens were perfused with gelatin-lead oxide solution from ulnar or radial artery and scanned under micro-CT. The morphology of scapholunate interosseous ligament in neutral position and the distribution of nutrient vessels in the ligament were observed on reconstructed 3D images by Mimics. The width, length and thickness of palmar, dorsal and proximal ligaments were measured. The anatomical parameters at the entrance of nutrient vessels in the scapholunate interosseous ligament were taken and their relationship with the blood supply to the scapholunate was analyzed.Results:①For scapholunate interosseous ligament, it was found that the average length of the proximal sub-region was the longest, the length of palmar and dorsal sides was similar to each other and the widest and thinnest was in palmar side, while the thickness and width of dorsal and proximal were similar. ②There was no nutrient vessel in the proximal part of the scapholunate interosseous ligament. But there were abundant nutrient vessels in the palmar and dorsal scapholunate interosseous ligament, and there was no significant difference in blood supply to palmar and dorsal scapholunate interosseous ligament ( P>0.05). ③The palmar and dorsal medial nutrient vessels that supply to the scapholunate interosseous ligament enter the scapholunate from the attachment of ligament of scapholunate interosseous joint. Conclusion:The palmar side of the scapholunate interosseous ligament is wider and thinner than that of the other subareas, which makes it more vulnerable to injury from an anatomical point of view. There is abundant blood supply to the palmar and dorsal subareas of the scapholunate interosseous ligament and the supplying vessels anastomose inside the scapholunate bone. There is no distribution of blood vessel at the proximal part of scapholunate interosseous ligament, hence is difficult to heal. An injury of palmar and dorsal ligaments may affect the blood supply of scapholunate.
