踝关节侧副韧带损伤的超声表现

目的 分析踝关节侧副韧带损伤的超声图像特征并评价其诊断价值。方法 采用7～13MHz线阵探头探查136例临床怀疑踝关节侧副韧带损伤患者，观察胫舟、胫距前、胫跟、距腓前、跟腓、胫距后、距腓后韧带，共计952条韧带，其中，51例的超声结果与手术比较。结果 46例侧副韧带完全及部分撕裂伤的超声诊断与手术结果符合。侧副韧带挫伤以肿胀为主，部分撕裂伤超声表现为韧带局部连续性中断（跟腓韧带）和不规则低-无回声区内见丝状结构相连，完全撕裂伤超声表现为韧带连续性中断，断端挛缩（跟腓韧带）和不规则低-无回声区贯穿整条韧带，无明显断端挛缩征。结论 高频超声对踝关节侧副韧带损伤的诊断无创、较准确、廉价，具有较高的临床应用价值。     

肘管综合征的解剖和病因学探讨

[目的]探讨肘管综合征的解剖特点和发病原因。[方法]对65例肘管综合征患者的临床资料和术中所见,以及其中25例患者术前肌电图检查的结果进行综合研究分析。[结果]术中见60例患者存在肘管弓状韧带的肥厚增生,卡压磨损尺神经导致炎性病变;术前肌电图检查发现25例患者的尺神经传导速度均减慢,平均传导速度为27.97m/s;运动反应波幅降低,平均电压为1.95mv;潜伏期延长,平均时间为5.41ms;65例肘管综合征患者,继发于肘部创伤25例,慢性劳损15例,慢性骨关节炎14例,占位病变5例,先天异常有6例。[结论]肘部的创伤及慢性劳损可以导致肘管弓状韧带出现肥厚增生,引起尺神经卡压磨损,这是肘管综合征最常见的病因;其他病因还包括慢性骨关节炎,占位病变和先天异常;尺神经可被机械性卡压和磨损,出现慢性缺血缺氧,导致肘管综合征的发生;详细的体格检查和术前的肌电图检查是诊断肘管综合征的主要手段,在诊断时应注意该病与其他部位迟发性尺神经麻痹的鉴别。     

The predictive value of intraoperative KT-1000 arthrometer measurements in single incision anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction

We reviewed 28 patients who underwent anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with immediate, 1-, 2-, and 3-year postreconstruction KT-1000 manual maximum testing. Arthrometer measurements were correlated with functional knee criteria to evaluate the ability of the KT-1000 to predict postreconstruction functional results. Despite a range of immediate postreconstruction arthrometer injured-minus-normal (I - N) differences, there was no association with I - N difference at last follow-up. Patients followed-up for 1 year were not different from those who were followed-up for longer with respect to intraoperative or 1-year I - N difference or functional performance scores. Furthermore, excellent functional knee scores were the norm at all stages of follow-up despite a wide range of arthrometric laxity changes. The results suggest that functional knee criteria, although partially subjective, are more useful indicators of outcome than intrareconstruction and postreconstruction arthrometric measures.     

Regeneration of periodontal ligament and cementum by BMP-applied tissue engineering

Previously, we demonstrated that the inductive properties of bone morphogenetic protein (BMP) highly depend on the nature of the carrier material used for implantation. In this paper, we show that administration of BMP incorporated in a fibrous collagen membrane can help to regenerate periodontal ligament and cementum both in cat canines and in monkey molars. The partially purified bovine BMP was combined with one or two layers of a fibrous collagen membrane. Although the single layer approach showed partial regeneration of periodontal defects, it also quite often led to ankylosis. The double layer technique in artificially prepared class III furcation defects in monkey molars gave favorable results. After 12 wk, not only the alveolar process but also the periodontal ligament and cementum had regenerated along the entire treated dentin surface. Collagen fibers were arranged more or less perpendicular to the surface of the new cementum. Ankylosis was not seen. It is concluded that the double-layer approach is superior to the single-layer technique in regenerating cementum.     

An ultrastructural study on anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction using autogenous patellar tendon grafts in dogs

An ultrastructural study was undertaken concerning morphological changes within the autografted patellar tendon (PT) after being transplanted to the anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) in mongrel dogs. After 4 weeks, the arrangements of both large and small collagen fibrils in the PT graft became disordered, and the number of inflammatory cells increased. However, the same PT grafts revealed postsurgical signs of newly-produced collagen fibrils around activated fibroblasts at 12 to 24 weeks. At 52 weeks after the transplantation, small collagen fibrils increased in both number and density, showing a remarkable morphological similarity to the collagen fibrils of normal ACL. These data indicate that the characteristics of the PT graft eventually resemble those of a normal ACL. This paper was presented in part at the Combined Meeting of the Orthopedic Research Societies of the USA, Japan and Canada in Banff, Alberta, Canada, October, 1991.
