Early diagnosis of testicular torsion is absolutely mandatory for salvage of a viable organ. The classical clinical presentation is a boy in the second decade with sudden onset of testicular pain accompanied by testicular tenderness and swelling as well as scrotal erythema and edema. The management is emergency exploration of the testicle with either orchiopexy or orchidectomy, depending upon the viability of the testis. In this series of 20 cases 90% had exploration with a salvage rate of 72%. Torsion of the testicle is in most cases due to a congenital abnormality; therefore contralateral orchiopexy is always done at the time of the exploration of the scrotum. The critical time interval from onset to exploration of the torsion is approximately 10 hours. In addition to the acute clinical entity, chronic torsion of the testis should be considered in all patients with unexplained orchalgia. 相似文献

We present data on hand preference in great apes and discuss them in the context of theoretical models of hand preference in nonhuman primates presented by MacNeilageet al. (1987) and by Fagot and Vauclair (1991). We also discuss several methodological and statistical issues as they pertain to the assessment of hand preference in great apes and other primate species. Finally, we present a comparative framework for the study of hand preference, emphasizing the importance of studies with great apes in developing evolutionary models of hemispheric specialization. 相似文献

Extramammary Paget's disease in men most frequently involves the penoscrotal area. The uncertainty of the outcome and of the relationship to the underlying adnexal carcinoma and associated internal malignancy still exists. From 1982 to 2001, 33 patients with penoscrotal extramammary Paget's disease were treated and followed up. Therapeutic modalities included carbon dioxide laser ablation (two patients) and local wide excision (31 patients). Split-thickness skin graft (22 patients), local scrotal flap (six patients), and primary closure (three patients) were utilized to reconstruct the penoscrotal defects after local wide excision. An underlying adnexal carcinoma occurred in seven of 33 patients (21.2 percent). The incidence of associated internal malignancy was 9.1 percent (three of 33 patients), including one concurrently and two nonconcurrently associated malignancies. Eight of 33 patients had local recurrence, representing an incidence of 24.2 percent. Three patients (9.1 percent) had distant metastasis and ultimately died of metastatic carcinoma. Of these patients, 31 were grouped according to the degrees of involvement: limited to the epidermis (group 1, n = 14), involvement of the adnexal gland and/or hair follicle (group 2, n = 10), and the presence of an underlying adnexal carcinoma (group 3, n = 7). Local wide excision with subsequent reconstruction by split-thickness skin graft was favored in this series. Patients with an underlying adnexal carcinoma or pathological invasion of the dermis (group 2 or 3) had a worse prognosis than patients without. From this study, it is difficult to address the particular relationship between the outcome and the associated internal malignancy. 相似文献

AbstractFibromyalgia (FM) is a chronic pain syndrome, characterised by several symptoms. One of the most prevalent symptoms in FM is balance impairment that compromise the autonomy, function and performance status of patients.Purpose: The main objective of the present study was to evaluate the effect of sensory stimulation provided by the use of a low additional thickness of 0.8?mm placed under the great toes bilaterally on the centre of pressure (CoP) measures in patients with FM. It was hypothesised that postural ability would change with a low focal additional thickness used to compute these measures.Materials and Method: Twenty-four patients with FM voluntarily participated in this study. Postural performance during quiet standing was investigated through the CoP displacements recorded using a force-plate. Sensory stimulation was provided by a small additional thickness of 0.8?mm placed under the great toe bilaterally and two conditions were compared: additional thickness 0 (control) and 0.8?mm.Results: An improvement of body balance through spatial parameters with sensory cutaneous stimulation applied under the great toe bilaterally were observed in patients with FM. Our results showed a significant decrease of surface area and mean speed of CoP, associated to a significant decrease of variance of speed. An additional observation is that sagittal (Y) mean position of the CoP gets more anterior (+ 5?mm) relative to control condition.Conclusion: These findings brings new clinical perspectives in the development of intervention strategies in the management of patients with FM and balance disorders, completing validated therapeutic strategies. 相似文献

The purpose of this article is to introduce the results of thumb and finger reconstruction using transplantation of the big toe wraparound flap combined with the second toe or the second and third toes. Between August of 1981 and December of 1998, in a series of 64 cases involving 58 patients with digitless hands, either (1) the thumb and index fingers were reconstructed by transplantation of a big toe wraparound flap combined with the adjacent second toe harvested from the ipsilateral foot; or (2) the thumb, index, and long fingers were reconstructed by transplantation of an ipsilateral big toe wraparound flap combined with the adjacent second and third toes. The phalanx of the new thumb was usually an iliac block. The success rate of this series was 92.2 percent. At long-term follow-up, the average static 2-point discrimination was less than 10 mm. The distance between the tip of the new thumb and the new index finger ranged from 6 to 10 cm (average, 8 cm). Opposition action was nimble and forceful. The patients could lift a 6- to 12-kg weight with their reconstructed digits. All patients were satisfied with their new hands and were able to use them in their daily activities. The transplants for reconstructing the thumb and fingers are harvested from the same foot in a procedure known as one-foot donation. Function of the bilateral digitless hand can be recovered with this procedure. 相似文献

A retrospective review of 20 patients with common peroneal nerve palsy treated with decompression between 1986 and 1997 was undertaken. Subjects were evaluated preoperatively and postoperatively by electromyography, nerve conduction, and clinical measures. The mean interval between the onset of symptoms to surgery (operative delay) was 15.9 months. The mean postoperative follow-up was 32.2 months with a minimum follow-up of 1 year. Decompression was performed at the level of the fibular neck and slightly distally at the tendinous origin of the peroneus longus using a standard approach to release tight fascial structures or scar tissue. External neurolysis was performed using the operating microscope in two cases for which scarring of the nerve was identified intraoperatively. Postoperatively, 19 of 20 patients showed improvement in ankle dorsiflexion as assessed by the Medical Research Council scale. Electromyographic examination was useful in the preoperative evaluation and selection of patients for decompression surgery. In conclusion, decompression even after a 1-year delay may offer benefit and suggest early intervention in patients with a severe lesion. 相似文献

Pilomatrixoma, also known as calcifying epithelioma of Malherbe, is a benign skin neoplasm that arises from hair follicle matrix cells. Pilomatrixoma is a common skin neoplasm in the pediatric population that is often misdiagnosed as other skin conditions. This study reviews an 11-year experience at a tertiary children's hospital, examining the cause, clinical and histopathological presentation, management, and treatment outcomes of pilomatrixoma. A review of the pathology database at Children's Hospital Los Angeles revealed 346 pilomatrixomas excised from 336 patients between 1991 and 2001. The hospital charts, pathology records, and plastic surgery clinic charts were reviewed with respect to variables such as sex, age at the time of presentation, clinical and histopathological presentation, preoperative diagnosis, management, recurrence, and treatment outcome. The main presenting symptom was a hard, subcutaneous, slowly growing mass. The preoperative diagnosis was accurate and consistent with the pathological diagnosis of pilomatrixoma in only 100 cases (28.9 percent). This entity should be considered with other benign or malignant conditions in the clinical differential diagnosis of solitary firm skin nodules, especially those on the head, neck, or upper limbs. The diagnosis can generally be made with a clinical examination. Imaging studies are not required unless symptoms or the location of the lesion warrants such diagnostic assessments. The treatment of choice is surgical excision, and the recurrence rate is low. 相似文献

A clinically normal mother of three retarded children has been determined by G-banding to have a balanced translocation 46,XX,t(13;20) (q34;p11.2). The children each have an unbalanced form of the translocation with partial trisomy for 20p. Extensive gene marker studies have been unable to affix any specific gene locus onto the short arm of chromosome 20. The balanced translocation was inherited from the maternal grandfather. Two phenotypically abnormal deceased members of the family are believed to have had the unbalanced trisomy 20p condition. An increases number of spontaneous abortions were possibly due to lethal unbalanced 20p deletions. The moderate to mild mental retardation and somewhate unusual features (round face, prominent cheeks and nose, short mandible) in the three siblings and two other affected relatives suggest that trisomy of the short arm of chromosome 20 may cause a distinguishable clinical syndrome. Vertebral abnormalities and abnormal dermatoglyphics are part of the picture. Clinical and cytogenetic findings of all reported cases are compared. 相似文献

Sheehan syndrome (SS) or post-partum pituitary necrosis is a pituitary insufficiency secondary to excessive post-partum blood losses. SS is a very significant cause of maternal morbidity and mortality in developing countries although it is a rarity in developed countries in which obstetrical care has been improved. In this study, we reviewed 20 cases retrospectively who were diagnosed as SS in our clinic. The patients aged 40 to 65 years with a mean age of 51.12 +/- 9.44 years (mean +/- SD). Time to make a definitive diagnosis of the disease ranged between 5 and 25 years with a mean of 16.35 +/- 4.74 years. Three of our patient (15%) had a previous diagnosis of SS. Three patients (15%) were referred to emergency service for hypoglycemia, three patients (15%) for hypothyroidism and one patient (5%) for hyponatremia. Dynamic examination of the pituitary revealed GH, Prolactin, FSH, TSH and ACTH insufficiency in all of the patients. One of our patients had a sufficient LH response to LHRH challenge. All of the patients were imaged with pituitary MRI. Eleven patients had empty sella and 9 patients had partial empty sella. SS is still a common problem in our country, especially in rural areas. Considering the duration of disease, important delays occur in diagnosis and treatment of the disease. 相似文献
