Objective To summarize the etiology mechanism and treatment of iatrogenic blepharoptosis after double eyelid surgery in Asia. Methods To extensively review the literature related to iatrogenic blepharoptosis after double eyelid surgery, and to summarize and analyze the related anatomical mechanism, existing treatment options, and indications. ResultsIatrogenic blepharoptosis is a relatively common complication after double eyelid surgery, sometimes it is combined with other eyelid deformities such as sunken upper eyelid and wide double eyelid, which makes it difficult to repair. The etiology is mainly caused by improper adhesion of tissues and scars, improper removal of upper eyelid tissue, and injury of a link of levator muscle power system. Whether blepharoptosis occurs after double eyelid surgery by incision or suture, it should be repaired by incision. The principles of repair include surgical loosening of tissue adhesion, anatomical reduction, and repair of damaged tissues. The key is to use surrounding tissues or transplanted fat to prevent adhesion. ConclusionWhen repairing iatrogenic blepharoptosis clinically, appropriate surgical methods should be selected based on the causes and severity of the blepharoptosis, combined with treatment principles, in order to achieve better repair results.
Objective The intercellular adhesion (ica) gene of Staphylococcus epidermidis (SE) is a key factor to bacterial aggregation, to analysis the genotype of iatrogenic SE and to explore the effect of iatrogenic SE ica operon on theformation of bacterial biofilm on the surface of polyvinyl chloride (PVC). Methods Fifty-six cl inical isolates of iatrogenic SEwere selected, and PCR and gene sequencing were used to detect the genes related with bacterial biofilm formation. The genes contained 16S rRNA, autolysin (atlE), fibrinogen binding protein (fbe), and icaADB. The bacteria suspension of 1 × 105 cfu/mL iatrogenic SE was prepared; according to the test results of target genes, the PVC material and the genotype of icaADB+, atlE+, fbe+ strains were co-cultivated as the ica positive group; the PVC material and the genotype of icaADB-, atlE+, fbe+ strains were co-cultivated as the ica negative group. The thickness of biofilm and bacterial community quantity unit area on PVC materials were measured by confocal laser scanning microscope, and the surface structure of biofilm formation was observed by scanning electron microscope (SEM) at 6, 12, 18, 24, and 30 hours. Results The positive rate of 16S rRNA of iatrogenic SE strains was 100% (56/56). The genotype of icaADB+, atlE+, and fbe+ strains accounted for 57.1% (32/56). The genotype of icaADB-, atlE+, and fbe+ strains accounted for 37.5% (21/56). The sequencing results showed that the product sequences of 16S rRNA, atlE, fbe, and icaADB were consistent with those in GenBank. With time, no significant bacterial biofilm formed on the surface of PVC in ica operon negative group. But in ica operon positive group, the number of bacterial community was gradually increased, and the volume of bacterial biofilms was gradually increased on the surface of PVC. At 24 hours, mature bacterial biofilm structure formed, and at 30 hours, the volume of bacterial biofilms was tending towards stabil ity. The thickness of biofilm (F=6 714.395, P=0.000) and the bacterial community quantity unit area on PVC materials (F=435.985, P=0.000) in ica operon positive groupwere significantly higher than those in ica operon negative group. Conclusion Iatrogenic SE can be divided into 2 types ofica operon negative and ica operon positive bacteria. The iatrogenic SE ica operon can strengthen bacterium biofilm formation capabil ity on PVC materials, bacterium community quantity, and thickness of biofilm, it plays an important role in bacterium biofilm formation on PVC materials.
Objective To summarize the experiences in diagnosis and treatment for iatrogenic injury of cholodocho-pancreatico-duodenal junction (CPDJ). Method The clinical data of 9 patients with CPDJ injury were analyzed retro-spectively. Results Double lumen tube drainage was emplaced in all the operations. Nutrition support and inhibitor ofpancreatic secretion were applied in all the patients. ①CPDJ injuries were observed intraoperatively for 6 out of 9 patientswith CPDJ injury. Two patients with simple perforation of posterior wall of common bile duct inferior segment and 2patients with simple duodenal perforation who were treated by perforation repair, common bile duct T tube drainage, andperitoneal drainage. Two cases of bile duct or duodenal injury with pancreatic injury were treated by choledochojejunostomyand BillrothⅡgastrojejunostomy. These 6 patients with CPDJ injury were cured and none of case was death. ②Injuries of CPDJ were observed postoperatively for 3 out of 9 patients with CPDJ injury. Total bile diversion or total bile diversion with duodenal diverticulum were performed in 2 cases of bile duct or duodenal injury with pancreatic injury, respectively. The one with total bile diversion only was died of abdominal infection, duodenal fistula, wound dehiscence, abdominal and upper gastrointestinal tract bleeding, and multiple organ failure;the one with total bile diversion with duodenal diverticulum and the one with sequent PTCD and choledochojejunostomy for biliary obstruction caused by operation ofgigantic duodenal interstitialoma were cured. Conclusions CPDJ injury usually occurs in biliary duct exploration, endoscopic sphincterectomy or duodenal operation. It is easily misdiagnosed and serious consequences may happen from this. Timely and correct treatment should be taken according to the specific injury observed during or after the operation.
Object To evaluate the significance of double common bile duct (DCBD) in hepatobiliary surgery. Metheds The data of diagnosis and treatment of two patients with DCBD in our hospital between Jul. to Dec. 2010 were analyzed retrospective, and the related literatures were reviewed. Results The right hepatic bile duct of DCBD due to mistaking it for cystic duct in 1 case was accidental injuried during laparoscopic cholecystectomy. Another example,the DCBD was confirmed by intraoperative exploration and choledochoscopic examination, at the same time with chole-dochal cyst, anomalous pancreaticobiliary ductal junction (APBDJ), primary hepatolithus, and choledocholith, and then operation was performed. Two cases were typeⅤb of DCBD. A total of 32 English literatures were reviewed. Since the beginning of 1932 English literature had reported 100 cases of DCBD. The type Ⅱand typeⅢwere the most common type of DCBD, and the typeⅤonly 10 cases. There were 27 cases of DCBD in twenty-five Chinese articles from 1994 to 2012. The typeⅤwas the most common type of DCBD. The accessory common bile duct (ACBD) opening in the duod-enum, gastric, and pancreatic duct were the most common. The common complications included stone, APBDJ, choled-ochal cyst, tumor etc. Conclusions DCBD is a very rare anatomic variation of extrahepatic bile duct, often accompanied by calculus of bile duct and common bile duct cyst, APBDJ, and other biliary anatomy abnormality, and potentially carci-nogenic potential. The existence of DCBD may increase the risk of iatrogenic bile duct injury and complexity of biliary operation. In view of this, this abnormality of extrahepatic duct should be paid with close attention during operation.

ObjectiveTo summarize the prevention and treatment of iatrogenic medial collateral ligament (MCL) injuries in total knee arthroplasty (TKA).MethodsThe relevant literature about iatrogenic MCL injuries in TKA was summarized, and the symptoms, causes, preventions, and treatments were analyzed.ResultsPreventions on the iatrogenic MCL injuries in TKA is significantly promoted. With the occurrence of MCL injuries, the femoral avulsion can be fixed with the screw and washer or the suture anchors; the tibial avulsion can be treated with the suture anchors fixation, bone staples fixation, or conservative treatment; the mid-substance laceration can be repaired directly; the autologous quadriceps tendon, semitendinosus tendon, or artificial ligament can be used for the patients with poor tissue conditions or obvious residual gap between the ligament ends; the use of implant with greater constraint can be the last alternative method.ConclusionNo consensus has been reached to the management of iatrogenic MCL injuries in TKA. Different solutions and strategies can be integrated and adopted flexibly by surgeons according to the specific situation.
Objective To investigate whether the outlet of the femoral tunnel will cause iatrogenic injury to the medial collateral ligament (MCL) during posterior cruciate ligament reconstruction (PCLR) and estimate the safe angle of femoral tunnel placement. MethodsThirteen formaldehyde-soaked human knee joint specimens were used, 8 from men and 5 from women; the donors’ age ranged from 49 to 71 years, with an average of 61 years. First, the medial part of the femur was carefully dissected to clearly expose the region of the MCL course and attachment on the femoral medial aspect and to outline the anterior margin of the region with a marked line. The marked line divided the medial femoral condyle into an area with an MCL course and a bare bone area which is regarded relatively safe for no MCL course. Then, the posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) was cut to identify the femoral attachment of the PCL. After the knee joint was fixed at a 120° flexion angle, the process of femoral tunnel preparation for the PCL single-bundle reconstruction was simulated. The inside-out technique was used to drill the femoral tunnel from the PCL femoral footprint inside the knee joint with an orientation to exit the medial condyle of the femur, and the combination angle of the two planes, the axial plane and the coronal plane, was adapted to the process of drilling femoral tunnels at different orientations. The following 15 angle combinations were used in the study: 0°/30°, 0°/45°, 0°/60°, 15°/30°, 15°/45°, 15°/60°, 30°/30°, 30°/45°, 30°/60°, 45°/30°, 45°/45°, 45°/60°, 60°/30°, 60°/45°, 60°/60° (axial/coronal). The positional relationship between the femoral tunnel outlet on the femoral medial condyle and the marked line was used to verify whether the tunnel drilling angle was a risk factor for MCL injury or not, and whether the shortest distance between the femoral exit center and the marked line was affected by the various angle combinations. Furthermore, the safe orientation of the femoral tunnel placement would estimated. ResultsWhen creating the femoral tunnel for PCLR, there was a risk of damage to the MCL caused by the tunnel outlet, and the incidence was from 0 to 100%; when the drilling angle of the axial plane was 0° and 15°, the incidence of MCL damage was from 69.23% to 100%. There was a significant difference in the incidence of MCL damage among femoral tunnels of 15 angle combinations (χ2=148.195, P<0.001). By comparison between groups, it was found that when drilling femoral tunnels at 5 combinations of 45°/45°, 45°/60°, 60°/30°, 60°/45°, and 60°/60° (axial/coronal), the shortest distances between the tunnel exit and the marked line were significantly different than 0°/45°, 0°/60°, 15°/45°, 15°/60°, and 30°/30° (axial/coronal) (P<0.05). Additionally, after comparing the median of the shortest distance with other groups, the outlets generated by these 5 angles were farther from the marked line and the posterior MCL. ConclusionThe creation of the femoral tunnel in PCLR can cause iatrogenic MCL injury, and the risk is affected by the tunnel angle. To reduce the risk of iatrogenic injury, angle combinations of 45°/45°, 45°/60°, 60°/30°, 60°/45°, and 60°/60° (axial/coronal) are recommended for preparing the femoral tunnel in PCLR.
Objective To explore the measures for early diagnosis and treatment of iatrogenic injury in the distal part of common bile duct. Methods The clinical data of 20 patients with iatrogenic injury in the distal part of common bile duct treated in our hospital from 1990 to 2008 were analyzed retrospectively. Results The injuries of 15 cases were found during the operation: 11 cases were treated with 3-stoma (bile duct, pancreas, duodenum)+Oddi sphinctreoplasty (OSP), 1 case with OSP+choledochojejunostomy, 2 cases with the perforated common bile duct suture repair+T tube drainage, 1 case with T tube drainage; All of them were cured after surgery. The other 5 cases were not found during the primary operation, 2 cases in which were cured with several operations, the other 3 were dead from infectious shock. Conclusions Early diagnosis and treatment of iatrogenic injury in the distal part of common bite duct can obtain perfect effects. Different procedures should be performed according to different degrees of the injury. The perfect preoperative imaging examination and intraoperative choledochoscopy before bile duct exploration may reduce the occurrence of the injury.
