Surgical treatment of acute convergent dislocation of elbow北大核心CSCD

Objective To evaluate the surgical treatment of acute convergent dislocation of elbow after failed closed reduction. Methods A retrospective study was conducted of the 8 patients with acute convergent dislocation of elbow who had been admitted from January 2017 to December 2020 for surgical treatment after failed closed reduction and completely followed up at Department of Orthopaedic Trauma, Beijing Jishuitan Hospital. There were 3 males and 5 females, with an average age of 30.9 years (from 15 to 51 years). Five left and 3 right elbows were injured. Combined injuries included radial head fracture in 6 cases, distal radius fracture in 2 cases, coronoid fracture in one, medial epicondyle fracture of the humerus in one, scaphoid fracture in one, and distal radioulnar dislocation in one. All patients underwent surgery after failure of closed reduction. Intraoperative exploration found in every case a longitudinal tear on the brachialis tendon. The radial head protruded from the front into the tear and twisted the tendon so that the reduction of the radial head was frustrated. At the last follow-up, the elbow flexion and extension and forearm rotation were recorded, and the Mayo elbow performance score (MEPS) was used for function assessment. Results All the 8 patients were followed up for a mean of 6.1 months (from 2 to 12 months). At the last follow-up, the elbow flexion and extension averaged 101.9° (from 65° to 150°), the forearm rotation 132.5° (from 75° to 170°), and the MEPS 96.3 (from 90 to 100). None of the patients had significant pain or joint instability. Various degrees of joint mobility limitation existed in 7 patients, one of whom underwent elbow arthrolysis and another of whom underwent ulnar neurolysis and anterior transposition due to ulnar nerve injury. Conclusions For treatment of acute convergent dislocation of elbow, if closed reduction fails, surgical treatment should be performed on time, because the surgical efficacy is more reliable. As the severity and combined injuries of the convergent dislocation vary from person to person, the therapy algorithm should be individualized. © 2023 Chinese Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma.

Objective To investigate the results and related key points in operative treatment of talar body fractures. Methods From April 2002 to July 2008, 44 patients with talar body fractures underwent the operation. There were 3 females and 41 males. The mean age of the patients was 31.7 years. The fractures occurred on the left side in 26 patients and on the right side in 18 patients. According to Sneppen classification, 24 type Ⅱ, 20 type V. Eleave cases were open fractures, according to the Gustilo-Anderson classification, there were 3 cases in type Ⅰ , 7 in type Ⅱ, 1 type in Ⅲ A. The mean interval between injury and surgical treatment for open fractures and close fractures was 5.3 hours and 8.9 days. The mechanism of injury was a fall from the height in 18 patients, a traffic accident in 13 patients, a crush injury in 8 patients, a sprain injury in 4 patients and a cut injury in 1 patient. Anteromedial approach was used for 15 close fractures, anterolateral approach for 3 and combined anteromedial-anterolateral approach for 15. K-wires fixation were utilized for 3 fractures, screws and temporary K-wires fixation for 5 cases, bioabsorbable screws for 2fractures, cannulated screws for 30 fractures and cannulated screws and threaded cancellous screws for 4cases. Results Thirty-five patients were followed up 21 to 89 months (average, 44.5 months). Necrosis of incision was found in 4 cases, wound infection occurred in 1 case. All fractures had achieved bone union;the average healing time was 22 weeks. Functional results were assessed according to AOFAS score, the average score was 77.3, There were 11 patients in excellent results, 13 in good, 10 in fair and 1 in poor. The overall excellent and good rate was 68.6%. Avascular necrosis occurred in 5 cases. Traumatic arthritis occurred in 19 cases. Arthrodesis was needed in 5 cases. Conclusion The timing and approach of surgery is determined by the condition of the talar fractures and soft tissue. Anatomical reduction, preservation of the blood supply and early active pain-free mobilization are key points in the treatment of the talar body fractures.     

极外侧腰椎间盘突出症的临床分型及手术方式选择

Objectives To suggest the clinical classification of the far-lateral lumbar disc herniation and offer the considerations for clinical choice of different surgical procedures. Methods According to the locations of the herniated disc and relevant clinical symptoms, the far-lateral lumbar disc herniation was divided into three types: Type Ⅰ: posterolateral and foraminal herniation (double herniations); Type Ⅱ: foraminal disc herniation and Type Ⅲ: extraforaminal herniation. From January 2002 to January 2007, 38 patients with far lateral lumbar disc herniation underwent surgery in the institute. The surgical options were decided by means of the classificasion. The surgical procedures included (1) discectomy by inter-TP (transverse process) approach, (2) discectomy with partial facetectomy and (3) discetomy with facetectomy and PLIF (posterior lumbar interbody fusion). Among the 38 patients, there were 25 males and 13 females. The mean age was 58.4 years old. The herniated discs located at L3-4 in 17, L4-5 in 13, and 8 cases at L5S1. Twenty-three patients were simple disc herniation, 15 cases with concomitant lumbar spinal stenosis. The symptoms and signs of exiting root compression at herniated disc level were presented in all patients and passing root compression presented in 7 Type Ⅰ cases as well; while intermittent claudication being presented in 15 and low back pain in 21 patients. The VAS (visual analog pain scale) of radicular leg pain was taken before and after the operation. The postoperative outcomes were evaluated through the MacNab's method in all the patients. Results By using the new classification system, the 38 patient were divided into Type Ⅰ 10 cases, Type Ⅱ 19 cases and Type Ⅲ 9 cases. The adopted surgeries included discectomy by intertransverse approach in 5, discectomy with partial facetectomy in 7, and discetomy with facetectomy and PLIF in the rest 26 eases. The mean follow-up period was ranging from 6 months to 4 years and 10 months, averagely 2 years and 11 months. The mean VAS scores of radicular pain was 7.4 preoperatively, 2. 7 at 2 weeks after the operation and 3. 1 at final follow-up. The final clinical outcomes by MacNab's method were as follow: excellent results in 20 cases, good in 12, fair in 5 and poor in 1 case. The overall improvement ratio was 84. 2%. The postoperative complications included superficial wound infection in 1 case, insufficient decompression in 1 case and leakage of cerebrospinal fluid in 1 case respectively. No breakage and loosening of internal fixation were detected. Conclusions A new clinical classification of far lateral lumbar disc herniation was suggested, which is significant to understanding the relevant pathology and choosing the surgical procedures.     

克氏针固定治疗儿童肱骨髁上骨折不同进针方式的比较

Objective To compare the treatment outcomes of techniques of K-wire fixation for treatment of supracondylar humeral fractures in children and provide guidelines for selection of internal fixation methods for humeral supracondylar fractures in children.Methods Sixty-four cases d humeral supracondlylar fractures in children were treated by K-wire internal fixation from January 2004 to January 2009.They were divided into 2 groups, with similar fracure types distributed to each group.Group one (crisscross K-wire fixation) contained 38 cases among which 21 were Gartlad Ⅱ fractures and 17 were Gartland Ⅲ fractures.Group two (lateral parallel K-wire fixation) cases contained 26 cases among which 18 cases were Gartland Ⅱ fractures and 8 cases were Garland Ⅲ fractures.Postoperative elbow functions were evaluated and compared between the two groups.Statistical analysis of the excellent-good rate was carried out.Results Postoperatively all 64 patients were follow-up for 6 to 54 moths (average 26 months).The excellent-good rate of elbow fiuctions in group one and two was 92.1% and 84.6%, respectively.There was no significant difference in functional recovery between the two fixation methods (P＞ 0.05).However ulnar nerve injury occurred in 4 cases of the crisscross K-wire insertion group, while none occurred in the lateral parallel K-wire insertion group.Conclusion Crisscross and lateral parallel K-wire fixation have similar clinical outcomes in treating humeral supracondylar fiactures in children.Lateral parallel K-wire fixation technique is simpler and can avoid the risk of iatrogenic ulnar nerve injury.It therefore is an effective method to treat Gartland Ⅱ and Ⅲ supracondylar humerus fractures.

Results Postoperatively the 16 cases were follow-up for an average of 8.5 months. All the fractures healed and the average healing time was 16 weeks. Krimmer score determined wrist function to be excellent in 8 cases, good in 5 cases, fair in 2 cases and poor in 1 case. The overall satisfactory rate was 81.3%. Conclusion Herbert screw and K-wire internal fixation combined with autologous bone graft can attain good clinical results in the treatment of old scaphoid fiactures at the waist.     

Selection of approach and fixation in the treatment of type C fracture of distal humerus in adults

Objective：To study the surgical treatment for distal humeral fractures in adults according to the follow-up results.Methods： Twenty-one cases （16 males and 5 females）of distal humeral fracture were included in this study. The average age was 42.5 years （range： 37-52 years）. Fractures were classified according to the AO classification system.Nine cases of C1,8 C2 and 4 C3-type fractures were identified.Open reduction and internal fixation were performed in all cases. A tricep-reflecting approach was adopted, and either the AO orthogonal plating or parallel plating technique was chosen,based on the fracture type. The plaster cast was removed 3 weeks after operation. Rehabilitation was encouraged during this period and afterwards. The average follow-up time was 12.2 months （range： 8-28 months）. The outcome was scored according to Aitken and Rorabeek system.Results：No nerve injury,nonunion or failure of fixation was encountered during the operation and follow-up.However, ossifying myosifis occurred in one case.Conclusions：A triceps-reflecting approach can provide adequate exposure to the joint. The use of AO orthogohal plating or parallel plating techniques based on the type of fractures can provide rigid fixation for the fracture.

Abstract：

Objective To evaluate clinical results of primary shortening plus secondary lengthening of the tibia for sever tibial fractures. Methods From May 2006 to August 2009, 5 men with severe open tibial fracture were treated with primary shortening plus secondary lengthening of the tibia in our center. They were aged from 23 to 41 years (average, 35 years) . Four cases were Gustilo type MB and one was Gustilo type M C. The primary procedure included debridement, shortening of the tibia and temporary fixation with a unilateral external fixator, and arterial anastomosis in cases of vessel injury. The wounds healed primarily in one case, after skin graft in 2 cases, and after flap transplantation in 2 cases. After wound healing, secondary lengthening of the tibia was performed following osteotomy of the proximal tibia with an Ilizarov fixator to restore the length of the injured leg. The average shortening was 4. 2 cm (range, 3 to 5 cm). Results The average follow-up period was 20 months (range, 18 to 24 months). All the wounds were healed without signs of osteomyelitis. All the fractures united. The mean bone healing time was 9. 6 months (range, 6 to 12. 5 months) . The average healing index was 1. 7 months/cm. A normal length was restored in all the affected lower limbs. By Paley functional assessment system, 3 cases were excellent, one was good and one was fair. Conclusion Primary shortening plus secondary lengthening of the tibia is a reliable and successful method for sever tibial fractures, because it can simplify management and minimize the need for flap coverage.     

Surgical management for sciatic nerve injury

Objective:To summarize surgical treatments and their corresponding curative effects on sciatic nerve injuries.Methods:Surgical treatments on sciatic nerve injury were performed in 28 patients from January 1990 to July 2000.The treatments included neurolysis, neurolysis plus partial nerve anastomosis,nerve anastomosis and nerve transplantation.The curative effect was evaluated according to Sunderland criteria.Results:Of 28 cases, 22 patients were followed up with a follow-up period of 13 months to 5 years (average 30 months).Of 22 nerves, 7 were excellent ,5 good,7 fair and 3 poor ,with an excellence rate of 54.5%.Conclusions:The fair results of sciatic nerve injury are related to its structural character.Surgical exploration should be performed if nerve function does not recover 3 months after primary operation and if Tinel‘s sign and electromyogram show no signs of nerve regeneration.Electrophysiological monitoring in the operation is useful in electing surgical methods and predicting the results of nerve anastomosls .

目的 ：探讨手法间接复位后AO 2.4 mm桡骨远端锁定板联合经皮穿针固定治疗C3型（AO/OTA分型）桡骨远端骨折的临床疗效及操作技巧。方法：自2009年5月至2012年3月采用手法间接复位AO 2.4 mm桡骨远端掌侧锁定板联合经皮穿针固定治疗桡骨远端骨折AO/OTA分型C3型患者19例21腕（双侧2例）。年龄31~66岁,平均（45.3±17.4）岁;并发尺骨茎突骨折14腕,下尺桡关节不稳6腕;均为闭合性骨折;发病时间4.5~9 d,平均（6.7±3.5）d。采用Henry切口显露骨折部位,保留关节囊、韧带连续性,手法间接复位,C形臂X线透视关节面复位情况,仍存在塌陷者予以撬拨复位后桡骨远端掌侧锁定板固定。下尺桡关节发现不稳定和并发尺骨茎突骨折者均予前臂旋后位石膏托固定6周。结果：19例（21腕）获得随访,时间7~17个月,平均10.5个月。X线示患者桡骨远端骨折均达到骨性愈合,尺骨茎突骨折未愈合3例,下尺桡关节不稳0例,1例出现背侧伸肌腱激惹,内固定取出后激惹消除。术后随访观测患者掌倾角、尺偏角、桡骨茎突高度、关节面和下尺桡关节情况,按照Batra和Gupta评分标准行影像学评定：70分以下3腕,70~79分5腕,80分以上13腕。同时对患者进行主观和客观疗效评定,观测残留畸形和腕关节活动度、并发症情况等,根据Sarmiento改良的Gartland-Werley评分系统评定术后疗效：优17腕,良3腕,可1腕。结论：AO/OTA分型C3型桡骨远端骨折手法间接复位可获得良好复位效果,应用锁定板联合穿针可为其提供内固定架支撑式固定以满足早期功能锻炼要求,患腕功能预后良好。     

尺骨茎突骨折对桡骨远端骨折后腕关节功能的影响

目的通过比较伴或不伴尺骨茎突骨折的桡骨远端骨折患者临床资料,探讨尺骨茎突骨折对桡骨远端骨折后腕关节功能的影响。方法回顾分析2005年2月-2010年5月收治的182例伴或不伴尺骨茎突骨折的桡骨远端骨折患者临床资料,其中75例伴尺骨茎突骨折(A组),107例不伴尺骨茎突骨折(B组)。两组患者性别、年龄、病程、骨折分型等一般资料比较,差异均无统计学意义(P>0.05),具有可比性。A组采用闭合复位小夹板或石膏固定治疗42例,切开复位钢板内固定33例;B组分别为63例及44例。A组尺骨茎突骨折均未作处理。结果两组患者术后均获随访,其中A组平均随访时间为21个月,B组为20个月。切开复位内固定患者术后切口均Ⅰ期愈合。A组4例(5.3%)、B组6例(5.6%)患者出现腕关节尺侧疼痛,发生率比较差异无统计学意义(χ2=0.063,P=0.802)。X线片示两组桡骨远端骨折均愈合,A组愈合时间为(10.9±2.7)周,B组为(11.6±2.3)周,两组差异无统计学意义(t=1.880,P=0.062)。桡骨远端骨折愈合时两组掌倾角、尺偏角及桡骨长度比较,差异均无统计学意义(P>0.05)。末次随访时两组腕关节屈伸、桡尺偏、旋前旋后活动度及手握、捏力均相似(P>0.05)。Gartland-Werley腕关节评分:A组优24例,良43例,可5例,差3例,优良率89.3%;B组优35例,良57例,可10例,差5例,优良率86.0%;两组差异无统计学意义(Z=—0.203,P=0.839)。A组闭合复位外固定及切开复位内固定患者以上评价指标比较,差异均有统计学意义(P<0.05)。结论尺骨茎突骨折对桡骨远端骨折后腕关节功能无明显影响;对于伴尺骨茎突骨折的桡骨远端骨折,桡骨远端骨折解剖复位对腕关节功能的恢复具有重要意义。     

Ulnar styloid fracture in children: a retrospective study of 46 cases

Ulnar styloid fractures are frequently ignored in the treatment of wrist fractures in children. Forty-six untreated ulnar styloid fractures (40 tip and six base fractures) associated with radial injuries (45 patients) were retrospectively analysed. At the removal of the cast, we recorded that 80% had a nonunion of the styloid fracture. Thirty-five patients were reviewed at an average of 19 months after treatment. Thirty tip fractures and five base avulsions were found. We recorded 28 patients with a good clinical result despite 21 cases of nonunion, whereas seven patients (all nonunions) had a fair result. All the fair results suffered from intermittent pain during sports and movement, radioulnar joint instability and tears of the triangular fibrocartilage complex. It can be concluded that both distal radius and ulnar styloid fractures should be taken into account in the initial treatment and pain associated with a nonunion of the ulnar styloid in a child may be due to a tear of the triangular fibrocartilage complex.
