Arthroscopic all-inside repair techniques of lateral meniscus anterior horn tear: a technical note

Although the conventional outside-in technique is especially useful for repairing tears in the anterior portion of the meniscus, it has a disadvantage of making an additional 1–2 cm sized skin incision and tying knots subcutaneously over the capsule. Therefore we devised two all-inside repair techniques of lateral meniscus anterior horn tear according to the site of meniscal tear, meniscosynovial junction or red–red zone. Because these techniques are modified methods of the outside-in meniscal repair using a spinal needle, they are as simple as conventional outside-in technique. In addition they have advantages of vertical mattress suture, which is an important characteristic of the all-inside repair, and no additional incision. We recommend these techniques as an alternative method for repairing an anterior horn tear of the lateral meniscus.     

全髋置换术对下肢短缩的治疗

目的：探讨全髋关节置换术对肢体短缩的纠正。方法：2000年2月～2002年12月,将30例接受单侧全髋关节置换术的患进行了研究：男19例,女12例。术前通过临床及对骨盆前后位X线片的测量评估双下肢不等长的程度,然后利用模板预测髋臼及股骨假体的置入位置，估计股骨颈的截骨水平以维持双下肢等长。术中先标记并测量股骨近端至髋臼上方两标记之间的距离，而后在术前估计的位置进行股骨颈截骨。置入假体试模之后再次测量两标记之间的距离和检查髋周软组织的张力、关节活动和drop-kick试验。最后通过调整股骨头假体颈部或头部长度进一步进行纠正。结果：22例肢体短缩2cm以上的病人中。术后双下肢等长(双下肢相差在1cm内)20例，2例仍有短缩，1例短3cm，另1例短1．5cm。8例肢体短缩在1～2cm的病人术后肢体完全等长。全部病人没有髋关节的僵硬和疼痛，活动范围恢复75％以上26例，恢复50％～75％4例。结论：通过术前测量评估，术中定位测量。术中软组织充分松解，置入假体试模后再次测量和检查髋周软组织的张力、关节活动和drop-kick试验,可以有效地治疗下肢的短缩。

Control accuracy and response time in multiple-state myoelectric control of upper-limb prostheses. Initial results in nondisabled volunteers

In myoelectrically operated prosthetic systems control performance decreases with an increasing number of possible movements. A test has been designed that allows quantification of two related qualities of performance. A predefined amount of training was given to 40 nondisabled volunteers without previous prosthetic experience. After training they attempted the test. The two parameters measured were the response time and the control accuracy corresponding to the different movements. It is concluded that even with a very limited amount of training fairly complex control systems can be operated with acceptable performance.     

Parapubic hernia: case report and review of the literature

Parapubic hernia is considered rare, with 18 hernias described in five articles published since 1971. The hernia results from iatrogenically or traumatically detached rectus abdominis muscles at the pubic bone and presents a therapeutic challenge because there is no strong aponeurotic anchoring structure in the defect's caudal aspect. We describe a patient with a large parapubic hernia repaired by a combined preperitoneal and onlay prosthetic method. This report adds another dimension to the prosthetic repair options in parapubic hernias and illustrates the effectiveness of the tension-free repair principle in their definitive management.

Arthroscopic rotator cuff repair:Indications and technique

Arthroscopic repair of rotator cuff tears is now possible. By using the biomechanical principles of margin convergenceand the balance of force couples, even large cuff defects can be repaired. Suture anchors are particularly suitable for arthroscopic repairs, and a corkscrew anchor design lends itself to a trans-tendon approach     

Load to failure of common meniscal repair techniques: Effects of suture technique and suture material

Success of meniscal repair with early or immediate motion depends on the ability of the suture fixation to withstand the loads applied. Vertical and horizontal mattress suture techniques were tested using 2-0 Ethibond, and 0-PDS and 1-PDS sutures (Ethicon, Somerville, NJ). Mulberry knot technique was tested with 0-PDS and 1-PDS sutures. Twenty menisci (60 sutures) were tested for each suture material. Sutures were placed 3 to 4 mm from the peripheral edge of the meniscus with double barreled cannulas for vertical and horizontal mattress techniques or a spinal needle for the mulberry knot technique, reproducing clinical techniques of meniscal repair. Mechanical testing of suture fixation was performed to failure at a rate of 10 mm/min on a MTS material testing system (MTS Systems Corp. Minneapolis, MN). Suture pullouts were reported as the load displacement to failure from the inner fragment only, because clinical failure would ensue should a suture pull through the inner fragment of a tear. Vertical mattress technique with 1-PDS suture had significantly greater load to failure than any other combination (P < .05). Analysis of variance showed that the vertical mattress technique had statistically superior pullout strength (P < .0001) compared with the horizontal mattress and mulberry knot techniques, which were statistically similar. There were significant differences (P < .0001) between suture types, with 1-PDS proving best compared with 0-PDS, which was stronger than 2-0 Ethibond. Selection of suture material had the greatest impact on vertical mattress load to failure and was not important to the strength of the other techniques.
