Manual of Peripheral Nerve Surgery edited by M. Socolovsky, L. Rasulic, R. Midha, and D. Garozzo [Thieme 2018] This concise and well-focused compendium is the fruit of a very active Peripheral Nerve Surgery Committeewithin the World Federation of Neurosurgical Societies, driven by the book editors who represent clinical and scientific knowledge in this particular field from different continents—a must in an areawith sometimes rare clinical cases and few dedicated specialists in every country. The present book is perfect for beginners or experts and is based on solid ground, starting with current reviews on nerve anatomy of the limbs, the clinical aspect of nerve trauma including war injuries, and diagnostic tools (electrodiagnosis, magnetic resonance, and ultrasound). The different neurosurgical techniques are detailed in this book, starting with neurolysis, direct repair, nerve grafting, and increasing use of tubes. Compressive lesions including the thoracic outlet syndrome are presented; several chapters deal with the traumatic brachial plexus lesions, in adults and the neonate, and lumbosacral plexus. Reconstruction of the facial nerve palsy is exposed by one skilled neurosurgeons’ personal experience and the last two chapters summarize the actual knowledge on benign and malignant peripheral nerve tumors, wherein many authors contributed their knowledge and cases together to help readers better understand the guidelines on diagnosis and surgical strategy. The editors stand for an excellent activity in their committee, aimed to raise interest and performance in the sometimes “neglected” field of the peripheral nerve, also addressed in other surgical specialties such as plastic and hand or orthopaedic surgery. Dedication to the peripheral nerve is a surgical passion, and the book reflects this enthusiasm. Although many textbooks on this topic came up in the last decade, this work is a milestone as it has a clear message as stated in the title “from the basics to complex procedures” in 200 pages, allowing the newcomers to go through it in a reasonable time without being discouraged by a 2,000 page encyclopedia, and still detailed enough on so delicate topics like the malignant peripheral nerve sheath tumors to satisfy surgical experts, facing rare and complex cases. Also, it is not just about “doing”: a lot of emphasis is given to the timing and the outcome of nerve reconstructions, which are not always perfect or predictable and frequently claim an interdisciplinary approach with secondary procedures performed by other specialties. But this is beyond the scope of this book, which clearly fulfils its scope, to address all those, especially neurosurgeons and neurologists, who want to know how surgery on peripheral nerves should be indicated, done, and followed up. This manual fits in the list of existing textbooks as being very well documented, clearly written, and concise, reflecting today’s peripheral nerve surgeon’s activity.
M.Socolovsky、L.Rasulic、R.Midha和D.Garozzo编辑的《外周神经外科手册》[Tieme 2018]这本简明而专注的简编是世界神经外科学会联合会内一个非常活跃的外周神经手术委员会的成果,在代表来自不同大陆的这一特定领域的临床和科学知识的图书编辑的推动下,这在一个有时罕见的临床病例和每个国家几乎没有专职专家的领域是必须的。本书非常适合初学者或专家,基于坚实的基础,从四肢神经解剖、包括战争损伤在内的神经创伤的临床方面以及诊断工具(电诊断、磁共振和超声)的最新综述开始。本书详细介绍了不同的神经外科技术,从神经松解术、直接修复、神经移植和增加管道的使用开始。压迫性病变包括胸廓出口综合征;几个章节涉及成人和新生儿的创伤性臂丛神经损伤,以及腰骶丛。面神经麻痹的重建是由一位熟练的神经外科医生的个人经验揭示的,最后两章总结了良性和恶性周围神经肿瘤的实际知识,其中许多作者共同贡献了他们的知识和案例,以帮助读者更好地理解诊断和手术策略的指南。编辑们主张在他们的委员会中开展一项出色的活动,旨在提高人们对有时被“忽视”的外周神经领域的兴趣和表现,该领域也涉及整形外科、手外科或整形外科等其他外科专业。对周围神经的奉献是一种外科手术的热情,这本书反映了这种热情。尽管在过去十年中出现了许多关于这一主题的教科书,但这部作品是一个里程碑,因为它在200页的标题“从基础到复杂程序”中有一个明确的信息,让新来者能够在合理的时间内完成它,而不会被2000页的百科全书所阻碍,对于恶性周围神经鞘肿瘤等敏感话题,仍然足够详细,以满足外科专家对罕见复杂病例的需求。此外,这不仅仅是“做”:我们非常重视神经重建的时间和结果,这些重建并不总是完美或可预测的,而且经常声称是一种跨学科的方法,由其他专业进行二次手术。但这超出了这本书的范围,它显然满足了它的范围,来解决所有那些想知道如何指示、进行和随访外周神经手术的人,尤其是神经外科医生和神经学家。这本手册符合现有教科书的清单,因为它记录得很好,写得很清楚,很简洁,反映了当今周围神经外科医生的活动。

Diffusion Weighted and Diffusion Tensor Imaging: A Clinical Guide edited by C. da Costa Leite and M. Castillo [Thieme 2016] Imaging of nerve tissue morphology progressed significantly with the development of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) technology. A step further is done actually with the diffusion tensor imaging (DTI) applied on MRI signals, where one canvisualizenotonlywhitematterbundles, but also starts to get insight in physiologic processes like brain maturation and nerve regeneration) as well as in pathologies like tumors, infectious diseases, demyelination, injury, and hemorrhage. This is a novel up to date book in a new and thrilling clinical and research field, edited and written by neuroradiologic experts. After a comprehensive review of the underlying physics and the anatomy of supratentorial white matter tracts and their organization, the editors present chapters about imaging of the brain during the first 2 years of life (development and aging changes), before addressing the aforementioned main fields of brain pathology—not without dedicating a separate chapter to the spine and spinal cord diseases. The last chapter even goes beyond the future and deals with even newer developments based on non-Gaussian signal distribution, introducing the research on diffusional kurtosis and diffusion spectrum imaging and their potential applications, trying to improve the representation of crossing axonal fibers and tracts, a serious limitation of DTI images. Every chapter is written very clearly and has a welldefined structure, with beautiful illustrations in order to capture the focus of non-radiologic readers within the new field of imaging and research. Of course, a better visualization of organized tracts and their alteration in pathology and aging will stimulate our pathophysiologic curiosity and drive them to investigate further. For neurologists, potentially hypothetic tissue changes such as in earlyAlzheimer’s disease nowbecome obvious. For neurosurgeons who deal with a vascular pathology or a tumor, the alteration of neighboring tracts is precisely represented. The peripheral nerve surgeon starts to follow in the postoperative course regenerating cones through the morphologic highway of a peripheral nerve structure, recognizable by their clear unidirectional fluid and tissue movement, so precisely identifiable on tractography. DTI is not necessarily expensive, but time consuming. Thus far, it is not a routine procedure either in neuroradiology investigation or in medical cost reimbursement considerations. This book provides quick updates to a lot of concerned physicians and technicians.
扩散加权和扩散张量成像:C.da Costa Leite和M.Castillo编辑的《临床指南》[Thieme 2016]随着磁共振成像(MRI)技术的发展,神经组织形态的成像取得了显著进展。实际上,更进一步的是将扩散张量成像(DTI)应用于MRI信号,在那里,人们可以直观地观察白质束,但也开始深入了解生理过程,如大脑成熟和神经再生,以及肿瘤、传染病、脱髓鞘、损伤和出血等病理学。这是一本新的、激动人心的临床和研究领域的最新小说,由神经放射学专家编辑和撰写。在全面回顾了幕上白质束及其组织的基本物理和解剖结构后,编辑们介绍了关于生命前2年大脑成像(发育和衰老变化)的章节,在谈到上述大脑病理学的主要领域之前,我们将专门用一章来讨论脊椎和脊髓疾病。最后一章甚至超越了未来,介绍了基于非高斯信号分布的新发展,介绍了扩散峰度和扩散光谱成像的研究及其潜在应用,试图改善交叉轴突纤维和束的表现,这是DTI图像的一个严重限制。每一章都写得非常清楚,结构清晰,插图精美,以捕捉新的成像和研究领域中非放射学读者的焦点。当然,更好地显示有组织的束及其在病理学和衰老中的变化将激发我们的病理生理好奇心,并驱使他们进一步研究。对于神经学家来说,潜在的假设性组织变化,如早期阿尔茨海默病,现在变得显而易见。对于处理血管病理或肿瘤的神经外科医生来说,相邻束的改变是准确的。外周神经外科医生开始在术后过程中通过外周神经结构的形态学高速公路来追踪再生锥,通过其清晰的单向液体和组织运动可以识别,因此可以在纤维束造影上精确识别。DTI不一定昂贵,但很耗时。到目前为止,无论是在神经放射学调查还是在医疗费用报销方面,这都不是一个常规程序。这本书为许多关心的医生和技术人员提供了快速更新。

Handbook of Pain Surgery by Kim J. Burchiel [Thieme 2018] Painmight be a terrible experience for the patient and still remains difficult to be treated. Pain surgery thus is of great interest for all therapists encountering pain patients. The present handbook gives a clear overview of common techniques and procedureswith a clearly structured text and a lot of figures. The first chapter on approach to the patient with chronic pain sets the frame: take the time to listen to the patient, his story, and pain characteristics. How demanding this may be! In section II, several authors develop the stimulation techniques addressing the peripheral nerves or spinal cord and intrathecal drug administration before focusing on the surgical options in trigeminal neuralgia. The last section is on destructive procedures addressing the myelon to interfere with pain-transmitting pathways. This concise handbook is a must for everyone who deals with patients experiencing severe, chronic, especially neuropathic pain, either general practitioners, anesthetists, neurologists or neurosurgeons, and upper limb surgeons. Even if we are not performing these procedures ourselves, we need to be aware of all existing techniques and evaluated procedures, to bring these into an inclusive discussion with the patient seeking our advice. This handbook gives a clear and well-documented overview and thus allows a better, more complete, more elaboratedmultidisciplinary approach to chronic pain, which does not respond sufficiently to analgesic regimens. Of course we should always bear in mind that the chronic pain needs to be addressed not only by medication and surgery, but the whole suffering individual should be considered including help for his/her daily living, psychology, emotional coping with pain, and still mandatory life project.
疼痛手术手册,作者:Kim J. Burchiel [Thieme 2018]疼痛对患者来说可能是一种可怕的经历,并且仍然难以治疗。因此,疼痛手术对所有遇到疼痛患者的治疗师来说都是非常感兴趣的。本手册给出了一个清晰的概述常见的技术和程序,结构清晰的文本和大量的数字。第一章关于治疗慢性疼痛患者的方法:花时间倾听患者,他的故事和疼痛特征。这是多么苛刻啊!在第二节中,几位作者在重点讨论三叉神经痛的手术选择之前,发展了针对周围神经或脊髓的刺激技术和鞘内给药。最后一节是关于破坏程序解决mymyon干扰疼痛传递途径。无论是全科医生、麻醉师、神经科医生或神经外科医生,还是上肢外科医生,都必须使用这本简明的手册来处理严重、慢性、特别是神经性疼痛的患者。即使我们自己不做这些手术,我们也需要了解所有现有的技术和评估的手术,以便与寻求我们建议的患者进行全面的讨论。这本手册给出了一个清晰的和充分记录的概述,从而允许一个更好的,更完整的,更详细的多学科方法来治疗慢性疼痛,这对止痛方案没有充分的反应。当然,我们应该始终牢记,慢性疼痛不仅需要通过药物和手术来解决,还应该考虑到整个受苦的个体,包括对他/她的日常生活、心理、情感应对疼痛的帮助,以及仍然是强制性的生活项目。

Background  In rare, selected cases of severe (extended) upper obstetric brachial plexus palsy (OBPP), after supraclavicular exposure and distal mobilization of the traumatized trunks and careful neuroma excision, we decided to perform direct nerve coaptation with tolerable tension and immobilized the affected arm positioned in adduction and 90-degree elbow flexion for three weeks. Objectives  We present our surgical technique and preliminary results in a prospective open patient series, including 22 patients (14 right and 8 left side affected) between 2009 and 2016, operated at a mean age of 8.4 months. Methods  Analysis of functional results after a minimum of 18 months was conducted using the British Medical Research Council (BMRC) scale. Results  All children reached 60-90° of elbow flexion and 75° of shoulder abduction at already six months after surgery. For those patients having already passed one year post surgery, the mean active shoulder abduction reached 92°, and for those who past the 18 months 124°. We discuss the actual knowledge about nerve coaptation under "reasonable" tension including its advantages and drawbacks. Conclusion  This technique may be indicated in preoperatively selected cases of (extended) upper OBPP and may give good functional results.

在一些罕见的(伸展性)上产科臂丛神经麻痹(OBPP)病例中,在锁骨上暴露和远端活动创伤干并仔细切除神经瘤后,我们决定在可耐受的张力下进行直接神经覆盖,并将受影响的手臂内收和肘关节90度屈曲固定三周。我们介绍了我们的手术技术和前瞻性开放患者系列的初步结果,包括2009年至2016年期间22例患者(14例右侧和8例左侧),平均年龄为8.4个月。方法采用英国医学研究委员会(BMRC)量表对至少18个月后的功能结果进行分析。结果所有患儿术后6个月肘关节屈曲60-90°,肩关节外展75°。术后1年以上的患者,平均肩关节外展达到92°,18个月以上的患者为124°。我们讨论了在“合理”张力下神经适应的实际知识,包括其优点和缺点。结论该技术适用于术前选定的(扩展的)上OBPP病例,并可获得良好的功能效果。

Dear Editor, We have recently published a work on the intraoperative identification of fourth cervical (C4) root and phrenic nerve during “difficult” surgery, by changing the ventilator waveforms triggered by electrical stimulation of these anatomic structures.1,2 Reviewing the literature on the domain, we came across the correspondence by Bhakta (October 2008) regarding the article “Capnography as an aid in localizing the phrenic nerve in brachial plexus surgery. Technical note.”3,4 Having studied the method in a series of 12 patients for C4 root (microsurgical cervical DREZotomy for neuropathic pain after brachial plexus avulsion) and 2 patients for phrenic nerve (transversomegaly of seventh cervical vertebra and brachial plexus tumor), we would like to add our own findings and conclusions in the discussion. In the original article (May 2008), Bhagat et al4 had presentedtheirwork inwhich thechangesoncapnographyelicited byelectrical stimulationof thephrenicnervehadbeen successfully used for the intraoperative identification of the nerve in a series of threepatients. InOctober2008, Bhaktaquestioned the correlation between the changes on capnography and the stimulation, suggesting that various anesthesiologic parameters could have resulted in similar changes. Our own method consists of the combined analysis of capnography and at least one of pressure–time and flow– time curves. In our series, general intravenous anesthesia was used, without neuromuscular blocking agents. As opposed to thepatients in the series ofBhagat et al,where a laryngealmask was used,4 our patients were intubated and ventilated in fully controlledventilationmodeswith tidal volumes of 6mL/kg and frequencies between 11 and 15. No difference of performance was observed between volume control and pressure control modes. No hyperventilation or air leak around the cuff was suspected at any point. No poststimulation hemodynamic variabilitywas observed. The electrical stimulationwas always performed at around 1 mA. Under these fully controlled conditions, capnography showed a sensitivity of 100% in the detection of the stimulation of either C4 root or phrenic nerve. The disadvantages of the capnography curve alone are that it can only be interpreted during expiration, as values during inspiration are zero, and there is normal delay between the occurrence of ventilatory events and their appearance on the curve. The combined analysis of the three curves offered valuable additional information, thus increasing the specificity of the findings. The study of pressure and flow curves, which are real-time curves covering the entire respiratory cycle, allowed us to confirm the on–off effect, that is, the appearance and disappearance of the changes concomitantly with the onset and end of stimulation. The patterns observed on capnography were of greater amplitude but rather nonspecific, whereas those observed on pressure and/or flow curve were generally of smaller amplitude but more specific, o

The disadvantages of the capnography curve alone are that it can only be interpreted during expiration, as values during inspiration are zero, and there is normal delay between the occurrence of ventilatory events and their appearance on the curve. The combined analysis of the three curves offered valuable additional information, thus increasing the specificity of the findings. The study of pressure and flow curves, which are real-time curves covering the entire respiratory cycle, allowed us to confirm the on–off effect, that is, the appearance and disappearance of the changes concomitantly with the onset and end of stimulation. The patterns observed on capnography were of greater amplitude but rather nonspecific, whereas those observed on pressure and/or flow curve were generally of smaller amplitude but more specific, o","PeriodicalId":15280,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Brachial Plexus and Peripheral Nerve Injury","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.7,"publicationDate":"2017-10-30","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://sci-hub-pdf.com/10.1055/s-0037-1608623","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"35213645","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Peripheral nerve injuries and brachial plexus injuries are relatively frequent. Significance of these injuries lies in the fact that the majority of patients with these types of injuries constitute working population.

It is considered that the age of the patient, the mechanism of the injury, and the associated vascular and soft-tissue injuries are factors that primarily influence the extent of recovery of the injured nerve. The majority of patients are treated using classical open surgical approach.

周围神经损伤和臂丛神经损伤较为常见。这些损伤的意义在于,这些类型的损伤患者大多数是劳动人口。由于这些伤害可能造成残疾,它们在当今造成了严重的社会经济问题。本文将介绍微创臂丛神经和周围神经手术的最新进展。我们认为,患者的年龄、损伤机制以及相关的血管和软组织损伤是影响损伤神经恢复程度的主要因素。大多数患者采用传统的开放手术方法治疗。然而,近年来,新的微创开放入路和内镜入路不断发展,包括腕肘隧道松解、臂丛手术的靶向微创入路、内窥镜单切口腓肠神经切除,甚至有人尝试进行内窥镜臂丛手术。利用市售的神经导管来桥接短神经间隙已显示出良好的效果。为每位患者单独设计的多学科方法对于成功治疗这些损伤至关重要。在未来,生物学和纳米技术的结合可能会制造出新一代的神经导管,这将允许神经在更长的神经间隙内再生,并开启周围神经手术的新篇章。

Abstract This review summarizes the role of melatonin (MLT) in defense against toxic-free radicals and its novel effects in the development of the nervous system, and the effect of endogenously produced and exogenously administered MLT in reducing the degree of tissue and nerve injuries. MLT was recently reported to be an effective free radical scavenger and antioxidant. Since endogenous MLT levels fall significantly in senility, these findings imply that the loss of this antioxidant could contribute to the incidence or severity of some age-related neurodegenerative diseases. Considering the high efficacy of MLT in overcoming much of the injury not only to the peripheral nerve but also to other organs, clinical trials for this purpose should be seriously considered.
本文综述了褪黑素(melatonin, MLT)在神经系统发育中的新作用,以及内源性和外源性褪黑素在减轻组织和神经损伤程度方面的作用。MLT是一种有效的自由基清除剂和抗氧化剂。由于内源性MLT水平在衰老时显著下降,这些研究结果表明,这种抗氧化剂的丧失可能导致一些与年龄相关的神经退行性疾病的发病率或严重程度。考虑到MLT在克服周围神经和其他器官损伤方面的高疗效,应认真考虑为此目的进行临床试验。

Abstract Rationale Knowledge of the relationship of the dorsal scapular artery (DSA) with the brachial plexus is limited. Objective We report a case of a variant DSA path, and revisit DSA origins and under-investigated relationship with the plexus in cadavers. Methods The DSA was examined in a male patient and 106 cadavers. Results In the case, we observed an unusual DSA compressing the lower plexus trunk, that resulted in intermittent radiating pain and paresthesia. In the cadavers, the DSA originated most commonly from the subclavian artery (71%), with 35% from the thyrocervical trunk. Nine sides of eight cadavers (seven females) had two DSA branches per side, with one branch from each origin. The most typical DSA path was a subclavian artery origin before passing between upper and middle brachial plexus trunks (40% of DSAs), versus between middle and lower trunks (23%), or inferior (4%) or superior to the plexus (1%). Following a thyrocervical trunk origin, the DSA passed most frequently superior to the plexus (23%), versus between middle and lower trunks (6%) or upper and middle trunks (4%). Bilateral symmetry in origin and path through the brachial plexus was observed in 13 of 35 females (37%) and 6 of 17 males (35%), with the most common bilateral finding of a subclavian artery origin and a path between upper and middle trunks (17%). Conclusion Variability in the relationship between DSA and trunks of the brachial plexus has surgical and clinical implications, such as diagnosis of thoracic outlet syndrome.
基本原理肩胛骨背动脉(DSA)与臂丛的关系是有限的知识。目的我们报告一例不同的DSA路径,并回顾DSA的起源和未被研究的与尸体神经丛的关系。方法对1例男性患者和106具尸体进行DSA检查。结果本病例中,我们观察到异常的DSA压迫下神经丛干,导致间歇性放射痛和感觉异常。在尸体中,DSA最常起源于锁骨下动脉(71%),35%来自甲状腺颈干。八具尸体的九个侧面(七具女性)每侧有两个DSA分支,每个分支来自一个起源。最典型的DSA路径是锁骨下动脉起源,然后穿过臂丛中上干(占DSA的40%),而中下干(23%),或丛下(4%)或丛上(1%)。在甲状腺颈干起源后,DSA最常经过神经丛上方(23%),而中下干之间(6%)或中上干之间(4%)。35名女性中有13名(37%)和17名男性中有6名(35%)在臂丛起源和路径上观察到双侧对称性,最常见的双侧发现锁骨下动脉起源和中上干之间的路径(17%)。结论DSA与臂丛干关系的变异性对胸廓出口综合征的诊断具有外科和临床意义。

Peripheral nerve research as well as nerve repair simulation has relied heavily on the rat animal model, more specifically on the rat sciatic nerve.1 As the use of animals in experiments and training has received much criticism from animal rights activists and society at large, the field of surgical simulation is currently emerging. In microsurgery, high-fidelity Silastic models, animal parts such as chicken thighs or wings, and cadaveric specimens have been used. Based on the available experience with Thiel embalmed cadaveric tissue in simulation,2–4 we experimented with Thiel embalmed peripheral nerves for the purpose of microsurgical skill training. We used median, ulnar, and tibial nerves from cadavers that had been used for anatomic and surgical training and had not touched the peripheral nerve tissue. The donors had previously consented to tissue utilization in postmortem research. The tissues originated from cadavers prepared with the embalming method described by Thiel.5 This technique preserves texture, volume, color, and shape of the body as perfect as possible, with the advantage of avoiding decay observed with fresh cadaveric specimens. There is no shrinking or soaking of the soft tissues. Thirteen nerve sections measuring 5 cm eachwere prepared on a foam board. Needles (25 G) are used to fix the nerves to the foam board. A blue background was used for the exercise, as it improves contrast. An operating microscope (Opmi Pico, Carl Zeiss, Oberkochen, German) at 10 magnification was used for all microneurorrhaphies. Under magnification, the nerves were crushed in the midsection to simulate an injured nerve. The participants transected the nerve using a 15-blade scalpel, and trimmed the damagednerve tissue. The two endswere inspected for the fascicular architecture and oriented appropriately for the repair. The epineurium was then gently reflected back and the proud fascicles trimmed. Nylon 8–0 sutures were used to perform a simple epineural repair, starting with the 0and 180-degree orientation sutures and then filling in the required sutures to obtain a well-oriented microneurorrhaphy. Under magnification of the operative microscope, we found the Thiel nerve tissue to show a slight gray-brown discoloration with an epineural layer that was hydrophilic, giving the impression of edematous tissue (►Fig. 1). This thicker-than-normal epineural layer, however, offers adequate support for manipulation. Unfortunately, the cadaveric nature of themodel precludes the use of the vasa nervorum,which are not visible, for adequate orientation of the nerve. Upon transection of the nerve, it can be observed that the fascicles arewell preserved and bound byfirm endoneurium and perineurium which have not undergone the same edema as the epineurium (►Fig. 1). Despite therebeing no immediate herniation of nerve fascicles upon transection, the fascicles have a tendency to bemorehygroscopic, and by the end of the neurorrhaphy, one can observe some protrusion of
周围神经的研究以及神经修复模拟在很大程度上依赖于大鼠动物模型,特别是大鼠坐骨神经由于在实验和训练中使用动物受到了动物权利活动家和整个社会的许多批评,手术模拟领域目前正在兴起。在显微外科手术中,高保真的硅胶模型,动物部位,如鸡腿或翅膀,和尸体标本被使用。基于已有的Thiel尸体组织防腐的模拟经验,2-4我们对Thiel尸体组织防腐的周围神经进行了显微外科技能训练。我们使用了来自尸体的正中神经、尺神经和胫骨神经,这些神经曾用于解剖和外科训练,并且没有接触周围神经组织。捐赠者先前已经同意将组织用于死后研究。这些组织来自用thiel描述的防腐方法制备的尸体。这种技术尽可能完美地保留了尸体的质地、体积、颜色和形状,其优点是避免了用新鲜尸体标本观察到的腐烂。软组织无萎缩、浸泡现象。在泡沫板上制备了13个神经切片,每个5厘米。针头(25g)用于将神经固定在泡沫板上。练习中使用了蓝色背景,因为它可以提高对比度。手术显微镜(Opmi Pico, Carl Zeiss, Oberkochen,德国)10倍放大用于所有显微缝合。在放大镜下,神经在中段被压碎,以模拟受伤的神经。参与者使用15刃手术刀横切神经,并修整受损的神经组织。检查了两端的束状结构,并适当地定位修复。然后将神经外膜轻轻向后反射,并修剪骄傲的神经束。使用尼龙8-0缝线进行简单的神经外修复,从0度和180度方向缝线开始,然后填充所需缝线,以获得定向良好的微神经缝合。在手术显微镜下,我们发现Thiel神经组织显示轻微的灰褐色变色,神经外层亲水,给人水肿组织的印象(图1)。然而,这层比正常的神经外膜厚,为操作提供了足够的支持。不幸的是,该模型的尸体性质排除了使用不可见的神经血管来充分定位神经。横断神经时,可以观察到神经束保存完好,并被坚固的神经内膜和神经周围膜结合,它们没有像神经外膜那样经历水肿(图1)。1).尽管在横断时神经束没有立即突出,但神经束有吸湿的倾向,在神经缝合结束时,可以观察到缝合线之间有一些神经束突出。束状图很容易识别,在缝合前可以使神经很好地对准。13名整形外科、耳鼻喉科和骨科住院医生志愿者分别使用了该模型一次,并填写了模拟后的调查问卷。调查结果以李克特五分制进行评分(非常同意、不同意、既不同意也不反对、同意、非常同意)。一个关于参与者使用实验室的频率的问题,答案分为五类。模拟后调查的内容见表1。对调查问题的结果进行了描述性统计。所有参与者(100.0%)同意他们每年至少使用该模块两次,53.9%(7名居民)表示他们每月使用一次以上,38.5%(5名居民)每月使用一次,7.7%(1名居民)每年使用两次。在过去的三十年中,显微外科手术的快速发展与一些用于显微外科手术技能教学和磨练的模拟模型的发展相呼应。在大多数整形外科中心,免费皮瓣是常规手术,住院医生有充分的机会参与和执行这些手术。作为一个

Abstract Multifactorial motion analysis was first established for gait and then developed in the upper extremity. Recordings of infrared light reflecting sensitive passive markers in space, combined with surface eletromyographic recordings and/or transmitted forces, allow eclectic study of muscular coordination in the upper limb. Brachial plexus birth injury is responsible for various patterns of muscle weakness, imbalance, and/or simultaneous activation, soft tissue contractures, and bone-joint deformities, leading to individual motion patterns and adaptations, which we studied by means of motion analysis tools. We describe the technical development and examination setup to evaluate motion impairment and present first clinical results. Motion analysis is a reliable objective assessment tool allowing precise pre- and postoperative multimodal evaluation of upper limb function. Level of evidence: II.
多因素运动分析首先建立在步态上,然后发展到上肢。记录反射空间中敏感被动标记物的红外光,结合表面肌电图记录和/或传输力,可以对上肢的肌肉协调进行折衷的研究。臂丛出生损伤会导致各种肌肉无力、不平衡和/或同时激活、软组织收缩和骨关节畸形,导致个体运动模式和适应,我们通过运动分析工具研究了这些。我们描述了评估运动障碍的技术发展和检查设置,并提出了第一个临床结果。运动分析是一种可靠的客观评估工具,可以对上肢功能进行精确的术前和术后多模式评估。证据水平:II。
