Sixty patients undergoing thyroidectomy were prospectively randomized to non skin clip closure (study group) and skin closure with Michel metal clips (control). The cosmetic outcome of the scar as well as other problems associated with the wound closure technique were evaluated. The aesthetic outcome of the scars in the non skin clip closure study group was better (good in 90%), than those in the conventional metal clip skin closure group (good in 76.7%). The rate of superficial wound infection and post operative pain requiring increase in analgesic dosage were less in the study group as well. The cost of the metal clips plus the pain and anxiety of the patient at the removal of the clips were also eliminated in the study group. Wound closure following thyroidectomy omitting the conventional metal clip was associated with fewer problems. Nigerian Journal of Surgical Sciences Vol. 17 (1) 2007: pp. 1-8
60例接受甲状腺切除术的患者前瞻性随机分为非皮夹子闭合组(研究组)和米歇尔金属夹子闭合组(对照组)。评估了疤痕的美容效果以及与伤口闭合技术相关的其他问题。非皮夹闭合组瘢痕的美观性优于传统金属夹闭合组瘢痕的美观性(90%良好),优于传统金属夹闭合组(76.7%良好)。研究组的浅表伤口感染率和术后需要增加镇痛剂量的疼痛发生率也较低。研究组还消除了金属夹的费用以及患者在取出夹时的疼痛和焦虑。甲状腺切除术后不使用传统金属夹的伤口愈合问题较少。尼日利亚外科科学杂志Vol. 17 (1) 2007: pp. 1-8

This study was undertaken as part of a wider prospective study by the University of Calabar Teaching Hospital Trauma Study Group. The specific objective was to highlight the pattern, distribution causative and contributory factors to head injury in our locality and to assess the outcome of treatment. The overall aim was to establish those epidemiological factors which may be targeted in the prevention and improvement of outcome. This paper is the preliminary report of this on-going study. The pattern and distribution of head injuries shows that a typical head injured patient in our locality is a male, aged between 21 and 30 years involved in a motorcycle related accident. Accidents frequently occured between 7 and 9pm and though 75% of patients arrived in hospital within 6 hours of injury, 17% of all cases died probably from suboptimal in-hospital care even in a tertiary centre. None of the patients used a protective helmet or restraining seatbelt. Prevention remains the key management option in these injuries.

这项研究是由卡拉巴大学教学医院创伤研究小组进行的一项更广泛的前瞻性研究的一部分。具体的目的是强调模式,分布的原因和促进因素,头部损伤在我们的地方,并评估治疗的结果。总的目标是确定在预防和改善结果方面可能针对的流行病学因素。本文是这项正在进行的研究的初步报告。头部损伤的模式和分布表明,我们地区典型的头部损伤患者是男性,年龄在21至30岁之间,涉及与摩托车有关的事故。事故经常发生在晚上7点到9点之间,尽管75%的患者在受伤后6小时内到达医院,但所有病例中有17%可能死于不理想的院内护理,即使是在三级医疗中心。没有患者使用防护头盔或安全带。预防仍然是这些损伤的关键管理选择。尼日利亚外科杂志Vol. 17 (1) 2007: pp. 14-20

This study evaluated the prevalence of HIV seropositivity among a suspected group and describes the ocular manifestations among patients seen at the eye clinic of Obafemi Awolowo University Teaching Hospital Complex, Ile-Ife. Confirmatory diagnosis of HIV/AIDS by serologic tests was positive in 11 (28.9%) patients. Age range of 11 HIV/AIDS positive patients was 16 to 56 years, with a mean age of 32 +/- 2.7 years. There were 7 males and 4 females, giving a male to female ratio of 1.8:1. Of the 11 indexed patients, 1 had squamous cell carcinoma of the conjunctiva related to acquired Immunodeficiency Syndrome; four [36.4%] had herpes zoster ophthalmicus (3 males and I female) and herpes simplex keratitis (1).Others were lateral rectus muscle palsy and associated optic atrophy(1), uveitis(2), uniocular pan-uveitis with rubeosis iridis(1) and retinopathy (2). This study showed a significant proportion of patients suspected of HIV/AIDS among high risk patients were actually infected. A high index of suspicion is required in diagnosing HIV/AIDS among ophthalmic patients.

This study was undertaken to evaluate the pattern and management outcome of splenic rupture resulting from blunt abdominal trauma in order to proffer solutions for prevention and improved management in the light of the changing trend in the management of splenic injuries. There were 37 patients, 27(73%) males and 10(27%) females, with a M: F ratio of 2.7: 1. The age range was 3-50yrs with a mean of 15.8years. Road Traffic accident involving 29 patients (78.4%) was the commonest cause of blunt splenic abdominal injuries. Most of the injuries involved children 23(62.2%). One patient had splenorrhaphy while 36 patients had total splenectomy. The severity of injury often in diseased spleens accounted for the low salvage rate.

A retrospective analysis of Ventouse deliveries over a 10 year period at St. Charles Borromeo Hospital, Onitsha, Nigeria is presented. Between January 1991 and December 2000, 15802 deliveries were conducted, 572 were Ventouse deliveries, giving a Ventouse rate of 3.6%. The age range of the patients was 17-44 years, with a mean age of 28.2+ 5.5 years. The commonest indication for Ventouse delivery was prolonged second stage of labour 34.9% (195), followed by cephalopelvic disproportion in 10.6% (59), while the least indication was brow presentation in second stage of labour 1.3% (7). The maternal morbidity was mainly vaginal tear/laceration that occurred in 2.2% (12) of the patients. The success rate of Ventouse delivery was 91.6% (511). The corrected perinatal death rate was 9/1000 deliveries. Ventouse has a high success rate in prolonged second stage of labour, in first stage of labour and in fetal mal-positions. With the decline in the use of obstetric forceps and its teaching in most health institutions, ventouse becomes the instrument of first choice when assisted vaginal delivery is considered.

回顾性分析了尼日利亚奥尼沙圣查尔斯博罗梅奥医院10年来的文特鲁斯分娩情况。1991年1月至2000年12月期间,共接生15802人,其中572人在文图斯分娩,文图斯出生率为3.6%。患者年龄17 ~ 44岁,平均28.2+ 5.5岁。Ventouse分娩最常见的指征是第二产程延长(34.9%,195例),其次是头骨盆比例失调(10.6%,59例),其次是第二产程眉部出现(1.3%,7例)。产妇发病以阴道撕裂/撕裂为主,发生率为2.2%(12例)。Ventouse分娩成功率为91.6%(511例)。校正后的围产期死亡率为9/1000次分娩。Ventouse在第二产程延长、第一产程延长和胎儿胎位不正时成功率高。随着大多数卫生机构使用产钳及其教学的减少,在考虑辅助阴道分娩时,ventouse成为首选工具。尼日利亚外科科学杂志Vol. 16 (2) 2006: pp. 72-75

Traumatic anterior dislocation of the hip is rare even in children. Very uncommon also is the perineal variant of the inferior type of anterior dislocation with concomitant avulsion fracture of the greater trochanter. We report such a case highlighting the peculiarity of its management. No similar case of triumvirate injury of the hip has been reported in sub Saharan West Africa. Open reduction of the hip under general anaesthesia was done after two failed attempts at close reduction. One year after, radiograph of the hip showed no deformity of the head of femur nor evidence of avascular necrosis.

The case files of patients with perforated appendicitis were analysed in relation to age, sex, clinical presentation, management and outcome of management. The aim was to detect the main factors that contributed to the perforation of the appendix in these patients and assess the effectiveness of the treatment offered. In a ten year period, 1993 to 2002, 655 appendicectomies were recorded .Twenty-nine cases were confirmed as perforated appendicitis. The perforation rate was 4.4%. It was concluded that there was significant delay in presentation in all cases. There is still ignorance among our population, including the well educated, of features of acute appendicitis. It appears the risk of perforation is higher with the first attack of acute appendicitis than with subsequent attacks. The most frequent complication was wound infection, 37.9%. Keywords : Perforated appendicitis, risk factors, outcome of management Nigerian Journal of surgical Sciences Vol. 16 (2) 2006: pp. 76-79
分析了穿孔性阑尾炎患者的年龄、性别、临床表现、治疗和治疗结果。目的是检测导致这些患者阑尾穿孔的主要因素,并评估所提供治疗的有效性。在1993年至2002年的十年间,记录了655例阑尾切除术,其中29例确诊为穿孔性阑尾炎。穿孔率为4.4%。得出的结论是,在所有病例中都存在明显的提交延迟。在我们的人群中,包括受过良好教育的人,仍然对急性阑尾炎的特征一无所知。急性阑尾炎第一次发作穿孔的风险似乎高于随后的发作。最常见的并发症是伤口感染,占37.9%。关键词:阑尾炎穿孔,危险因素,治疗结果尼日利亚外科杂志Vol. 16 (2) 2006: pp. 76-79
