RESUMO
Objective: To analyze the difference of application methods and effects of local flap in small and medium-sized defects of different aesthetic subunits of nose, in order to provide reference for clinical work. Methods: A retrospective analysis was made on 59 patients with external nasal masses and scars who underwent surgical treatment in the Department of Aesthetic Plastic Surgery of the Affiliated Hospital of Qingdao University from July 1, 2021 to January 30, 2022, including 27 females and 32 males, aged 15 to 69 years. Using Likert scale, the repair methods and effects of local flap for nasal soft tissue defects were evaluated and summarized from three aspects of texture, flatness and scar concealment. GraphPad Prism 5.0 software was used for data statistics and analysis. Results: The use of skin flaps to repair small and medium-sized areas of the nose could achieve satisfactory results. For patients with different subunits, in terms of skin flatness and scar concealment degree in the operation area, patients' satisfaction with the dorsal and lateral nasal areas was higher than that of the alar and tip areas, respectively (F=6.40, P=0.001; F=10.57, P<0.001). For patients with different skin flap repair methods, the satisfaction of patients with Z-plasty and Dufourmentel skin flap was higher than that of other skin flap repair methods (F=4.38, P=0.002), and the satisfaction of patients with Dufourmentel skin flap was the highest in the degree of scar concealment (F=2.57, P=0.038). Conclusions: In the small and medium-sized defects of the nose, the use of multiple local flaps can achieve good cosmetic effects and functional recovery. The operator should select the appropriate flap repair method according to the characteristics of different aesthetic subunits of the nose.

Objective: To investigate the application effect of augmented reality and mixed reality navigation technology in three-dimensional(3D) laparoscopic narrow right hepatectomy(LRH). Methods: A retrospective analysis was performed on the clinical data of 5 patients with hepatic malignancy admitted to the First Department of Hepatobiliary Surgery,Zhujiang Hospital,Southern Medical University from September 2020 to June 2021,all of whom were males,aged from 42 to 74 years.Preoperative evaluation was performed using the self-developed 3D abdominal medical image visualization system; if all the 5 patients were to receive right hemihepatectomy,the remnant liver volume would be insufficient,so LRH were planned.During the operation,the independently developed 3D laparoscopic augmented reality and mixed reality surgical navigation system was used to perform real-time multi-modal image fusion and interaction between the preoperative 3D model and 3D laparoscopic scene.Meanwhile,intraoperative ultrasound assisted indocyanine green fluorescence was used to determine the surgical path.In this way,the LRH under the guidance of augmented reality and mixed reality navigation was completed.The predicted liver resection volume was evaluated before surgery,actual resected liver volume,surgical indicators and postoperative complications were analyzed. Results: All the 5 patients completed LRH under the guidance of augmented reality and mixed reality navigation technology,with no conversion to laparotomy.The median operative time was 300 minutes(range:270 to 360 minutes),no intraoperative blood transfusion was performed,and the median postoperative hospital stay was 8 days(range:7 to 9 days).There were no perioperative deaths,or postoperative complications such as liver failure,bleeding,or biliary fistula. Conclusion: For patients who need to undergo LRH,the use of augmented and mixed reality navigation technology can safely and effectively guide the implementation of surgery,retain more functional liver volume,improve surgical safety,and reduce postoperative complications.

AIM: To observe the growth status and morphological changes of primary cultured bulbar conjunctival fibroblasts in different stages of conjunctivochalasis(CCH), and to determine the best passage time, so as to obtain stable and consistent CCH bulbar conjunctival fibroblasts.METHODS: CCH primary bulbar conjunctival fibroblasts were obtained by tissue block adhesion method. The fibroblasts were purified by trypsin differential digestion method. The growth status and morphological changes of fibroblasts in different periods were observed and recorded under inverted microscope. The fibroblasts were identified by immunofluorescence cytochemical staining.RESULTS: After 24h of CCH conjunctival tissue adherent to the wall, a small number of cells would be seen crawling out around the tissue blocks. The logarithmic phase of cell growth was from the 2-7d. The cells grew fast, with vigorously proliferation, clear outline, uniform distribution, increas in numbers and clear nuclei. From the 9-15d, the cell growth entered the plateau stage, the tissue blocks gradually aged and lost activity. The cells grew slowly, arranged loosely, the volume became larger, the shape became flat, and a large number of granular substances and vesicles were produced in the cytoplasm. Some cells fell off from the bottom of the culture bottle, and large gaps appeared between the cells. After subculture and purification, the size and morphology of fibroblasts were basically the same. Through cell identification, fibroblasts were long spindle, flat star or multi-process spindle, wide in the middle, oval nucleus, relatively small at both ends, with 2-3 slender processes of different lengths extending outward.CONCLUSION: Primary CCH bulbar conjunctival fibroblasts can be successfully obtained by tissue block adhesion method. When the cells grow to the 8d, they can be digested and passaged to obtain stable and consistent CCH conjunctival fibroblasts.
RESUMO
BACKGROUND: Osteochondral allograft transplantation for the treatment of knee articular cartilage defects is one of the longest clinical methods. Although this method is widely used in clinical practice and is trusted by orthopedic surgeons, it still lacks evidence-based medicine support. OBJECTIVE: To investigate the efficacy of osteochondral allograft transplantation in the knee joint, systematic review and meta-analysis of all available data, and evaluate the efficacy and safety of osteochondral allograft as a transplant substitute in knee joint surgery. METHODS: Literature search was conducted in PubMed/Medline, EMBASE, Cochrane Collaboration Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure and Wanfang Database. The application of osteochondral allograft in knee joint transplantation was searched and selected according to the literature inclusion criteria. Articles whose data can be extracted and meta-analyzable were mainly selected. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Twenty-five studies met the inclusion criteria and were all case series studies. The patient reported that osteochondral allograft can be used as a graft material to repair knee joint defects. A total of 1 081 patients (1 111 knees) were included in the study. The age of onset was 11-75 years old, with an average age of 34.41 years. The proportion of women was about 40.81%. The follow-up period was 4-384 months, with an average of 76.8 months. (2) In these studies, donors received a minimum age of 10 years and a maximum of 65 years. According to the donor age range and number of studies, donors aged 15-45 were the primary targets. (3) The overall success rate after surgery was 74%, and the overall secondary operation rate was 17%. The success rate of unipolar surgery was 74.44% (501/673); the success rate of bipolar surgery was 50.94% (27/53). The success rate of unipolar surgery was significantly higher than that of bipolar surgery (χ2 =13.679, P < 0.05). (4) Treatment complications occurred in 67 patients (13.14%, 67/510). Common complications were persistent pain at the surgical site (15 cases), graft fracture or fragmentation (12 cases). (5) These results indicate that osteochondral allograft is an effective and safe substitute for knee joint transplantation. The overall success rate is 74% and the secondary operation rate is 17%. It is a treatment with high success rate and low risk of reoperation.

OBJECTIVE:To explore the value of three dimensional(3 D) visualization combined with indocyanine green(ICG) fluorescent imaging and virtual reality(VR) technique in real-time navigation in anatomical liver resections.METHODS:Data of 64 patients with liver neoplasms were collected from January 2016 to June 2018 in Hapatobiliary Surgery,Zhujiang Hospital,Southern Medical University. Pre-operative 64-slice CT or 256-slice CT examination was performed.Thin-slice CT image data were imported into MI-3 DVS to perform 3 D reconstruction of liver, intrahepatic vessels and tumors. The 3 D reconstruction model was then imported into a VR development engine to transform into a VR model, so as to instruct preoperative planning and decision-making; intraoperative Pinpoint fluorescence imager was used to detect liver and tumor, and 3 DV and VR techniques were combined to assist the hepatectomy.During the period of this research,RESULTS: four patients with MI-3 DVS 3 D reconstruction showed clear liver, tumor, and intrahepatic vascular structures.The manipulator with a head-mounted display and a sensor for capturing hand and finger movement was integrated into a 3 D-VR environment to visualize the immersion, spatial and stereoscopic sensation of the pre-3 DV model. FIGFI could be used to define the tumor boundary and the hepatic margin, as well as to detect the small liver cancer and the residual lesion of the liver margin. In the group of 64 patients, left lateral loberesection was performed in 4 cases, left hepatectomy in 16 cases, right anterior resection of the liver in 5 cases, right hepatic resection in 5 cases, right lobe resection in 17 cases, middle hepatectomy in 5 cases and hepatic segmentectomy in11 cases(5 segments, 3 cases, 6 segments, 6 cases, 7 segments, 1 case, 8 segments, 1 case) and caudate lobectomy in 1 case. The actual operation procedure was consistent with the preoperative planning. No severe complications such as intraperitoneal hemorrhage, bile leakage, liver failure, death occurred after operation.CONCLUSION:Multimode imaging technique has important application value in preoperative accurate imaging diagnosis and intraoperative anatomic, functional and radical hepatectomy.

The consistency between the simulated procedure and the actual operation was evaluated, and the residual stones were detected using cholangiography with a T-shaped tube.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>When the model setting was configured to render the liver translucent, the system clearly displayed the site and number of the bile duct calculi as well as the expansion or narrowing of the intrahepatic bile duct. A total consistency (100%) was found between the surgical findings and the preoperative findings based on the 3D model, and also between the actual surgical procedures and the preoperative simulation in 30 cases. The consistency rate between the actual surgical protocols and the preoperative surgical plan was 90%. Follow-up of 27 of the patients for 6 months showed a recurrence rate of 7.4% (2/27) after the operation.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The 3D visualization system allows accurate preoperative diagnosis and precise surgical operation to reduce the postoperative recurrence rate, and can be of value as a new diagnostic and treatment modality in biliary surgery.</p>

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To assess the clinical value of digitalized minimally invasive technique in the treatment of the hepatolithiasis.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>The 64-slice spiral CT data were acquired from 4 hepatolithiasis patients for three-dimensional reconstruction and simulation operation using abdominal medical image-3D visualization system (MI-3DVS). Three-dimensional reconstruction was performed for the liver, hepatic arteries, hepatic veins, portal veins, intrahepatic bile ducts and calculi. Based on the size and position of the calculi and the distribution of the dilated or stenotic biliary ducts, several simulation operations such as partial hepatectomy and hepaticojejunstomy were performed. With guidance by the findings in the simulation operation, the actual minimally invasive operation was performed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The three-dimensional models of the liver, hepatic arteries, hepatic veins, portal veins, intrahepatic bile ducts and calculi were reconstructed successfully, which clearly visualized the site and the number of calculi and the condition of the involved intrahepatic bile ducts. Guided by the three-dimensional models and the simulation operations, partial hepatectomy and hepaticojejunstomy were performed and the calculi were removed completely in all the 4 cases with maximum preservation of the residual liver volume.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Three-dimensional reconstruction and simulation operation allows digital minimally invasive treatment of hepatolithiasis, which can be a new approach to hepatobiliary surgery.</p>

<p><b>BACKGROUND</b>With the rapid development of computer technology, digital medicine has become a new direction in surgery. The application of digital medicine in hepatic surgery is still at the early stage and less reported in the literature. The aim of this study was to apply digital medical technology in the context of hepatic surgery.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Data from 64-slice helical computed tomography of 17 patients, including 13 with hepatocellular carcinoma and 4 with hepatic hemangioma, were imported into independently developed medical image software program, segmentation and three-dimensional reconstruction were performed. The three-dimensional models were then processed with the FreeForm Modeling System. We used virtual surgical instruments to perform surgery on the models. Simulated surgeries included six hepatic segmentectomies, four left hemihepatectomies, three right hemihepatectomies for hepatocellular carcinoma, one hepatic segmentectomy, two stripping surgeries, and one irregular segmentectomy combined with stripping surgery for hemangioma. For resections involving more than three hepatic segments, total and residual functional hepatic volumes were measured before and after simulation surgery, and the resection ratio was calculated.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The anatomy of the models was distinct and was used to localize lesions. We used virtual surgical instruments to perform simulated surgeries and used the models to optimize actual surgeries. We were able to minimize resection volume as well as surgical risk.</p><p><b>CONCLUSIONS</b>Digital medical technology is helpful in the diagnosis of hepatic disease and in optimizing surgical plans. Three-dimensional models can decrease surgical risk and help prevent postoperative hepatic failure.</p>
