Aneurysmal bone cyst (ABC) is a rare primary or secondary tumor that usually occurs in young women aged between 10 and 20 years, mostly in the long tubular bone and spine. However, there are no definite standards for its clinical treatment. To our knowledge, this is the first report of a young female patient with distal radius ABC who was successfully treated with tumor resection and autogenous fibular head transplantation. ⋯ Our results suggest that autofibular head transplantation is an effective treatment for reconstruction of wrist function in adult patients with ABC of the distal radius.

Case Reports
Use total portosystemic shunt to rescue an emergency PNF with intractable hypotension: A case report.
Living donor allogeneic liver transplantation is a surgical treatment for patients with end-stage liver disease, wherein a healthy liver is implanted in the patient, facilitating the recovery of the liver function in patients with end-stage liver disease. However, primary nonfunction (PNF) may occur as a result of this procedure. ⋯ The lesson we have learned is that total portosystemic shunt composited with careful anesthesia management can rescue the event of PNF with intractable hypotension in liver transplantation surgery. At the same time, we give attention to blood pressure, electrocardiogram, albumin, calcium, potassium, acidosis, coagulopathy, anti-infection, and protection of vital organs is essential for successful retransplant outcomes.

Intracranial aneurysm (IA) is defined as a localized dilation of cerebral arteries. With the continuous development of modern medical technology, surgery is still one of the main treatment methods. Although there are various postoperative complications, abnormal coagulation function is rare, especially those caused by lupus antibodies after surgery. The patient not only experienced postoperative abnormalities in coagulation function, but also discovered the presence of lupus anticoagulants in their body. Is the patient suffering from coagulation dysfunction caused by lupus anticoagulants, how is lupus anticoagulant produced, and what's special about treatment. With these questions in mind, we reviewed the entire treatment process of the patient. ⋯ The coagulation function of the patient was abnormal after craniocerebral operation. After coagulation factor supplementation, the coagulation index of the patient was still not well improved. After further examination, the lupus anticoagulant was found. The treatment plan was actively adjusted, and the patient's condition gradually improved. Early recognition can allow doctors to provide appropriate therapy to patients.
