胚胎颅骨骨膜移植修复髋关节软骨大面积缺损

１９９０年５月～１９９４年４月，对４２例（４７个髋）关节软骨全厚缺损患者采用冷冻保存胚胎颅骨骨膜移植进行修复，其中１４例股骨头骨质Ⅳ期坏死者，同时施行带旋髂深血管蒂髂骨植骨。对３４例（３８个髋）进行了２年～６年（平均４０个月）随访。结果表明，按照吴之康髋关节人工置换术后疗效评定标准，优良２５例，很好５例，好３例，尚可１例。认为，与自体移植物修复关节软骨大面积缺损相比，这种方法无附加损伤，具有移植材料、形态与股骨头相似等特点，是治疗髋关节软骨大面积缺损的一种有效方法。     

The use of frame fixation in the management of open distal extensor mechanism avulsion fracture in a dislocated knee

An avulsion fracture of the tibial tubercle is a common injury in traffic accident. If the fracture is closed, then a comparatively good prognosis can be expected through reinforcement of the bone via osteosynthesis and the use of artificial ligaments. In this case, an open wound was observed in the tibial tubercle, and the wound was so polluted that the healing process was significantly delayed. It was therefore difficult to provide simultaneous surgical treatment and so three operations were required to perform the reconstruction of the extensor mechanism. The reconstruction of extensor mechanism and the frame fixation between the patella and tibia was performed. Six months after the injury, the patient was able to walk without aid, had a range of movement from 5°to 130°, and did not show any indications of ADL disorder. Using this method of frame fixation between the patella and tibia proved to be an effective technique for the reconstruction of the open knee extension mechanism injury.

The Cellular Lesion of Humoral Rejection: Predominant Recruitment of Monocytes to Peritubular and Glomerular Capillaries

Accumulation of inflammatory cells within capillaries is a common morphologic feature of humoral renal allograft rejection and is most easily appreciated if it occurs in glomeruli. The aim of our study was to determine the amount and composition of immune cells within glomeruli and peritubular capillaries (PTC) in cellular and humoral allograft rejection. Immunofluorescent double-labeling for CD31 and CD3 or CD68 was used for phenotyping and enumerating immune cells within glomeruli and PTC. The major findings are: (1) accumulation of immune cells in PTC is far more common than it would be anticipated based on the assessment by conventional histology; (2) it is not the absolute number of immune cells accumulating within capillaries, but rather the composition of the intracapillary cell population that distinguishes humoral rejection from cellular rejection and (3) in C4d positive biopsies a predominantly monocytic cell population accumulates not only within glomeruli but also within PTC. The median value of monocyte/T-cell ratio within PTC was 2.3 in C4d positive biopsies but only 1 (p = 0.0008) in C4d negative biopsies. Given their prominent presence within capillaries and their extensive biological versatility monocytes might contribute to the capillary damage observed in acute and chronic allograft rejection.     

Microarray analysis of healing rat Achilles tendon: evidence for glutamate signaling mechanisms and embryonic gene expression in healing tendon tissue.

Tendon healing is a complex process consisting of a large number of intricate pathways roughly divided into the phases of inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling. Although these processes have been extensively studied at a variety of levels in recent years, there is still much that remains unknown. This study used microarray analyses to investigate the process at a genetic level in healing rat Achilles tendon at 1, 7, and 21 days postinjury, roughly representing the inflammation, proliferation, and remodeling phases. An interesting temporal expression profile was demonstrated, identifying both known and novel genes and pathways involved in the progression of tendon healing. Both inflammatory response and pro-proliferative genes were shown to be significantly upregulated from 24 h postinjury through to 21 days. Day 7 showed the largest increase in genetic activity, particularly with the expression of collagens and other extracellular matrix genes. Interestingly, there was also evidence of central nervous system-like glutamate-based signaling machinery present in tendon cells, as has recently been shown in bone. This type of signaling mechanism has not previously been shown to exist in tendon. Another novel finding from these analyses is that there appears to be several genes upregulated during healing which have exclusively or primarily been characterized as key modulators of proliferation and patterning during embryonic development. This may suggest that similar pathways are employed in wound healing as in the tightly regulated progression of growth and development in the embryo. These results could be of use in designing novel gene-based therapies to increase the efficacy and efficiency of tendon healing.     

Flexor digitorum profundus tendongrafting (extrasynovial donor tendons)

Although the prevalence of flexor tendon grafting has decreased since the early part of this century, the technique isstill an important part of a hand surgeons armamentarium. Primary and staged flexor tendon grafting are appropriate techniques used to restore digital function after failed or neglected repairs. Appropriate patient selection, meticulous reconstructive techniques, and respect for basic biological principles of healing and repair are essential elements for successful tendon grafting.
