简介：日益增长的白内障盲表明目前白内障手术数量还远远低于清除白内障积存数及服务新发病人的要求。经济状况越好,文化程度越高,对视力的要求也会越强烈,病人也会更早地要求实施白内障手术。老年人口的增加也会使得白内障手术的需求成倍增加。即使在印度,白内障手术率(CSR)高达每百万人口3250例,白内障手术率仍然需要提高2-3倍,才能有效地解决白内障盲的问题。在很多国家,白内障手术率甚至要提高10倍才能解决问题。增加白内障手术服务本身就是一个极大的挑战。同样具有挑战的是保证服务的质量。这需要不断增加的资源(扩充容量)及最大限度地使用现有资源(提高效率)。本文中讨论在现有服务制度下,如何扩充容量,提高效率,这正是很多地方所需要的。

简介：目的分析原发性眼眶肿瘤的组织来源、手术进路及手术效果。方法回顾性分析5年开眶手术治疗的眼眶肿瘤101例。结果前十位的眼眶肿瘤分别是:海绵状血管瘤22例(21．78％),静脉性血管瘤10例(9．9％),(表)皮样囊肿泪腺10例(9．9％),泪腺混合瘤8例(7．92％),炎性假瘤7例(6．93％),脑膜瘤6例(5．94％),腺样囊性癌5例(4．95％),淋巴瘤4例(3．96％),肉瘤3例(2．97％),神经鞘瘤2例(1．98％)。手术方法包括前路入眶68例,外侧开眶27例,眶内容6例,术后复发4例。结论开眶手术的术式选择与肿瘤的性质、位置、粘连情况、病变范围密切相关。术前对肿瘤的性质、位置、粘连程度的正确判断和手术操作技巧可减少术后复发等并发症。术后复发病例主要为脑膜瘤及泪腺肿瘤。

简介：1手术类型侧颅底恶性肿瘤以鳞状细胞癌居多。颞骨任何部位发生的鳞状细胞癌在手术治疗前,均应先作放疗。颞骨切除的手术有2种方式,一种是整块颞骨连同肿瘤切除,另一种是分块切除,以保存神经血管结构。历史上曾仅靠作乳突根治术来治疗颞骨恶性肿瘤,因疗效差已被扩大的颞骨切除手术替代。颞骨切除术经数十年努力改进,不断扩大切除范围,疗效有所提高,但结果仍不够理想。其原因主要是局部复发。

简介：上海交通大学医学院（原上海第二医科大学）附属仁济医院是一所历史悠久的三级甲等教学医院（建院于1844年），耳鼻咽喉科和我国大多数的兄弟医院一样，多年来一直从事如急慢性中耳炎、急慢性咽、喉炎、扁桃体炎、耳鸣、耳聋等临床常见病、多发病的医疗、教学及研究工作，近年来由于疾病谱的变化我们除常规的传统工作之外，每年对头颈肿瘤患者的诊治也逐渐增多。2005年仅甲状腺肿瘤的外科手术治疗达500多例，近10余年总数超过5000例，约占本科手术总量的45％。作为以传统耳鼻咽喉科为主的三级甲等医院中的一员，从开始每年10余例甲状腺肿瘤手术到目前每年500余例，并进行涎腺肿瘤外科、头颈部先天性肿瘤、头颈部外伤治疗，开展了颈胸联合、颅鼻联合手术等工作，逐渐发展成为具初步规模的耳鼻咽喉头颈外科，我们走过了10余年的历程，有了些感受，现就有关耳鼻咽喉头颈外科医师进行甲状腺肿瘤外科治疗的若干体会与从事相关工作的同道们进行交流、切磋。
