经皮椎体成形术与椎弓根螺钉固定治疗骨质疏松性胸腰椎骨折的生物力学研究

目的比较经皮椎体成形术(PVP)和椎弓根螺钉内固定(PSF)治疗骨质疏松性胸腰椎骨折的生物力学强度,为临床应用和离床活动指导提供实验依据。方法18具冻存的新鲜尸体,应用双能X线骨密度仪(DEXA)测定脊柱的骨密度(BND),取胸腰段脊椎(T_(12)～L_2 12具,L_1 6具)随机分成三组：PVP组、PSF组(T_(12)L_2)和正常对照组(L_1),每组6具。PVP组和PFS组实验椎体均制成骨折模型,PVP组给予经双侧椎弓根注入低粘度的含显影剂骨水泥各2．5mL。PSF组于T_(12)、L_2椎弓根置入钉棒系统固定,测试并比较两组和对照组静态最大抗压强度及刚度。结果PVP组骨水泥分布面积皆大于50%,其平均最大抗压强度与刚度分别为(2645±478)N,(117±81)N/mm；PSF组平均最大抗压强度与刚度分别为(1862±620)N,(125±33)N/mm。两组比较平均最大抗压强度差异有显著性意义(P＜0．05),最大刚度差异无显著性意义(P＞0．05)。结论骨折椎体内注入骨水泥PMMA,其抗压强度优于椎弓根钉方法,对于轻度骨质疏松者尤为适用。PVP术后患者可早期(3～5d)下床活动,而PSF术后患者离床活动时间可适当延后。     

3D kinematic analysis of the acromioclavicular joint during arm abduction using vertically open MRI.

Many researchers have evaluated the motions of the shoulder girdle, especially scapular and humeral motion. However, few reports exist that describe motions of the acromioclavicular joint. The purpose of the present study was to analyze the 3D kinematics of the acromioclavicular joint during arm abduction using 3D MR images obtained by a vertically open MRI. Fourteen shoulders of seven volunteers were examined in seven static positions from 0 degrees to the maximum abduction in a seated position. 3D surface models of the clavicle and scapula were created, and the movements of the acromioclavicular joint from 0 degrees to each position were calculated using the volume-based registration technique. From these calculations, the translations were evaluated and the rotational motions were analyzed using the concept of the screw axis. In the anteroposterior direction, the clavicle translated most posteriorly (-1.9 +/- 1.3 mm) at 90 degrees of abduction and most anteriorly (1.6 +/- 2.7 mm) at maximum abduction. In the superoinferior direction, the clavicle translated slightly superiorly (0.9 +/- 1.9 mm). When analyzing relative motion of the scapula with respect to the clavicle, the scapula generally rotated about a specific screw axis passing through the insertions of both the acromioclavicular and the coracoclavicular ligaments on the coracoid process. The average rotation was 34.9 +/- 8.4 degrees.     

计算机导航下空心钉内固定治疗股骨颈骨折

目的 探讨计算机导航技术在股骨颈骨折空心钉内固定治疗中的应用，为骨折内固定提供一个新的手术技术。方法 8例股骨颈骨折，术前Garden分型为Ⅰ型3例，Ⅱ型4例，Ⅲ型1例。术中牵引复位后，通过一次C臂机透视正侧位，即可在计算机导航下完成内固定。术后常规透视复查。结果 8例病例全部在导航下完成空心钉的内固定，平均透视时间为15s，远远少于常规内固定所须的时间。结论 计算机导航技术成功应用于空心钉内固定手术，有效减少了手术中X射线的辐射，同时提高了手术的精度，可避免机械引导器的误差，随时反映操作的过程，使手术过程更方便、直观。     

羟基磷灰石/多聚左旋乳酸椎间融合器的力学评价

目的:评价羟基磷灰石和多聚左旋乳酸(hydroxyapatite/poly-L-lacticacid,HA/PLLA)制成的可吸收性腰椎椎间融合器(cage)的力学特性。方法:形状相同的HA/PLLAcage和Brantigan碳纤维cage及与cage外径相同的人尸体髂骨块各16枚,在材料实验机MTS上分别将3种椎体间置入体行压缩破坏(n=8)和压缩疲劳(n=8)试验,记录置入体压缩破坏时的最大压力、弹性系数以及1万次压力负荷后的高度变形率,并加以比较。结果:在瞬间破坏压力和弹性系数方面,HA/PLLAcage和碳纤维cage均显著高于髂骨块(P<0.05),但两种cage间差异无显著性(P>0.05)。1万次压力负荷后,两种cage的高度压缩率均显著小于髂骨块(P<0.05),且HA/PLLAcage的平均压缩率显著小于碳纤维cage(P<0.05)。结论:HA/PLLAcage和碳纤维cage较髂骨块具有更强的力学稳定性;与碳纤维cage相比,HA/PLLAcage不仅具有同等的瞬间抗破坏强度,而且具有更强的抗重复负荷变形的能力。

Effects of angle and laminectomy on triangulated pedicle screws

We aimed to demonstrate the effect of angle and laminectomy on paired pedicle screws to determine whether a 90 degrees screw angle is optimal as has been previously suggested. According to the angle between right and left screws, 28 calf vertebrae were divided into three groups and instrumented as follows: Group I: 60 degrees screw angle; Group II: 90 degrees angle; Group III: 60 degrees angle with laminectomy. The screws were connected using rods and cross-fixators and tested to peak pullout force. Triangulated pedicle screws provided 76.5% more pullout strength than single screws. Most of the specimens failed through loss of convergence angle (toggling of screws on the rods) and subsequent uni- or bilateral screw pullout. Mean+/-SD peak loads were: Group I: 2071+/-622 N; Group II: 1753+/-497 N; Group III: 2186+/-587 N. The differences were not significant (p>0.05). 90 degrees triangulation was not associated with a superior pullout performance versus conventional 60 degrees triangulation, suggesting that achieving additional triangulation angle is not necessary to obtain increased pullout strength. Laminectomy did not alter the effect of triangulation on fixation strength.

Operative treatment of intertrochanteric hip fractures: an overview of modern advances and techniques

Hip fractures have been one of the most studied injury pattern in adults. The number of hip fractures is increasing exponentially; furthermore, the cost of treatment places great economic strain on society. There have been recent developments in hip-fracture treatment, particularly involving the intertrochanteric region, with emphasis on deformity prevention to try to optimize patient functional outcomes. In this article, we outline some of these developments with an emphasis on changes in implant design.
