Background

Bone SPECT can be used after a femur neck fracture to assess the circulation of the femoral head in the immediate postoperative period because the blood supply is one of the major factors affecting bone uptake of radiotracer on bone scintigraphy. The purpose of our present study was to investigate whether osteonecrosis of the femoral head (OFH) after internal fixation of femoral neck fracture could be predicted by early and late bone SPECT.

Methods

This retrospective cohort study enrolled 44 patients (33 women; mean age, 66.9 years) who underwent surgical fixation for femoral neck fractures. Early and late bone SPECT images were obtained within 2 weeks postoperatively and at 3 months postoperatively. Patients were followed up for a minimum of 24 months (average, 34 months).

Results

OFH developed in 9 out of 44 patients but no patient showed nonunion. Seventeen patients with normal femoral head uptake on early bone SPECT were healed. Of 27 patients with decreased femoral head uptake on early bone SPECT, 2 patients developed OFH on radiography before 3 months postoperatively, 18 patients recovered to normal uptake on the late SPECT, and the remaining 7 patients still showed decreased uptake on the late SPECT at 3 months postoperatively. All of these 7 cases finally developed OFH on radiography.

Conclusion

Bone SPECT can reliably predict the possibility of OFH with after femoral neck fracture at least 3 months after surgery, while early bone SPECT showed low specificity.

ObjectiveThe aim of this study was to evaluate factors associated with the needle breakage of antegrade suture passer and the effect of intratendinous remnant needle tip on clinical outcomes after rotator cuff repair.MethodsWe retrospectively reviewed 283 patients (138 men and 145 women; mean age: 59.7 ± 9.3 years) who underwent arthroscopic repair for full-thickness rotator cuff tear. We evaluated the characteristics of 16 patients in whose needle tip had been broken and embedded and remained in the rotator cuff (remnant needle group) and compared them with the remaining 267 patients (control group). Afterwards, another 64 patients were selected from control group (1:4 matching) after propensity score matching (PSM). The groups were compared anatomically with MRI or ultrasonography and functionally (serial pain VAS and ROM; ASES, Constant, UCLA and SST scores) at a minimum follow-up of 1 year.ResultsThe remnant needle group showed preoperative thicker tendon (6.72 mm vs 5.33 mm, p = 0.047), higher tendinosis (mean grade, 1.88 vs. 1.43, p = 0.029), and more frequent delaminated tears (p = 0.035) compared with control group. When we compare the clinical outcomes after PSM, the initial pain VAS of the remnant needle tip group was higher up to 3 months (pain VAS: 4.13 ± 2.07 vs 2.48 ± 1.61 (p = 0.032) at 5 weeks and 3.79 ± 2.12 vs 2.25 ± 1.76 (p = 0.044) at 3 months), however the difference disappeared after 6 months postoperatively. In final evaluation, there was no significant differences in every outcome parameters (all p > 0.05).ConclusionBreakage of the needle of the antegrade suture passer occurred more frequently in the thicker tendon, higher tendinosis, and delaminated tears. The retained broken needle tip was associated with higher pain scores during the early postoperative period, but revealed no difference in final outcomes by using PSM.Level of EvidenceLevel III, Therapeutic Study  相似文献
