Effect of autocontrol micromotion intramedullary interlocking nail on fracture healing： an experimental study

Objective: To investigate the effect of autocontrol micromotion locking nail ( AMLN ) on experimental fracture healing and its mechanism. Methods: 16 goats undergoing both sides of transverse osteotomy of the femoral shafts were fixed intramedullary with AMLN and Gross-Kempf (GK) nail, respectively. The follow-up time was 7, 14, 28 and 56 days. Roentgenographic, biomechanical, histological, scanning electromicroscopic and biochemical analyses were done. Results: (1) The strength of anticompression, antiflexion and antitorsion in the fractural end in the AMLN-fixed group was higher than that of GK nail-fixed group; whereas, the rate of stress shelter in the fractured end decreased significantly (P<0.01). (2) The content of the total collagen, insoluble collagen, calcium and phosphate in the AMLN-fixed group was higher than that in the GK nail-fixed group (P<0.05). (3) Histological observation and quantitative analysis of calluses revealed that AMLN could promote the growth of bridge calluses and periosteum calluses. Hence the facture healing and remolding process achieved early, which was much better than traditional GK nail fixation. (P<0.05). (4) 7-14 days postoperation, the calluses of AMLN-fixed group was flourish and camellarly arranged and the collagen fibril formed constantly in the absorption lacuna of bone trabecula. 28-56 days postoperation, the collagen fibril was flourish around the absorption lacuna and was parallel to the bone's longitudinal axis. Active bony absorption and formation were seen, so was remolding and rebuilding. Haversian system was intact and the bony structural net was very tenacious because of the deposition of calcium salt. None of the above findings was observed in the GK nailfixed group. Conclusions: The design of AMLN accords well with the plastic fixation theory. As the geometry ametabolic system constituted by the intramedullary fixation instruments and the proximal and distal end of the fracture is very firm and stable, the disturbance to the physical stress distributed in the fractural end is light. The generation and conduct of the intermittent physical stress between the fractural parts could reach the balance between stress conduct and stress protection. The feature that the healing and remolding take place at the same time speeds up the fractural healing process.

The risk of post-operative infection after reamed intramedullary locked nailing of tibial fractures. A review of 730 cases

Summary 730 consecutive acute reamed intramedullary locked nailing of tibial fractures were studied, according to Gustilo’s classification of soft tissue lesions for the open fractures. There is a significant increase of post-operative infection rate if the tibial fracture is open, and the relative risk increases with the severity of soft tissue lesions. The comparison of these figures with those of other methods of treatment and the mechanical and clinical advantages of nailing leads us to propose this method for treatment of grade I, II and IIIa open fractures, while external the fixator seems better adapted for IIIb and c open fractures.

本文介绍17例（34髋）特发性股骨头坏死、4例（4髋）正常人骨髓腔静脉造影所见。发现25髋有异常改变,并经病理证实。作者认为:①骨干返流;②2支或2支以上静脉不显影;③多条静脉明显变细;④干骺端瘀积是股骨头坏死的造影表现,前二者是可靠的诊断依据。造影结果提示髓腔静脉造影是一种安全而敏感的诊断技术。     

Schwann cell invasion of the conus medullaris: case report

As Schwann cells possess regenerative capabilities there is intense interest concerning their role in central nervous system (CNS) regeneration. We report on a case of an intramedullary schwannoma involving the conus medullaris and spinal cord above it. We discuss the possible origin of these cells and the mechanisms by which these cells may invade the CNS. We offer imaging and discuss experimental studies to support our hypothesis. This case concerns a 48-year-old man, who presented with a 6-month history of bilateral lower extremity weakness. Magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) revealed an intramedullary tumour extending from the conus to T11. At operation, following laminectomy and durotomy, a schwannoma was dissected free from the conus. Total gross resection of tumour was achieved. The patient made an uneventful and full recovery. This case shows that Schwann cells can invade the CNS. Manipulation of the transitional zone astrocytic barrier may offer a potential avenue for Schwann cells to enter the CNS in pathological states.
