Nasal fractures in children

Summary A group of thirty children with nasal fractures was evaluated retrospectively by means of a questionnaire and hospital records. Age at the time of injury ranged from age 3 to 12 (mean = 8.6) years and mean follow-up period was 9 years. Eight patients reported some degree of nasal obstruction post reduction, but only one patient required submucous resection and two patients underwent septorhinoplasty for appearance. No patients reported class III malocclusion, or required orthodontic treatment or maxillofacial corrective surgery for maxillary hypoplasia. We concluded that a childhood nasal fracture treated by closed reduction does not have deleterious effects on facial or nasal growth.This work was supported in part by the Brigham Surgical Group Foundation, Inc., Boston, Massachusetts, USA

大鼠内毒素血症时外周血及肺泡内中性粒细胞死亡方式及呼吸爆发

本研究观察大鼠内毒素血症时肺组织中及外周血多形核中性粒细胞（PMN）凋亡，坏死及功能改变的差异。采用Wistar大鼠20只。腹腔注射LPS（O55B5，5mg/kg)造成内毒素血症，给予LPS后2，4，8，12小时（每组5只动物）取血及支气管肺泡灌洗，密度梯度法分离PMN，用流式细胞仪测定凋亡和坏死比例以及呼吸爆发功能的改变，同时采用5只大鼠作为正常对照。结果显示，内毒素血症时外周血和支气管肺泡灌洗液中PMN凋亡细胞比例相似。但与对照相比，外周血PMN坏死比例明显增加，呼吸爆发能力明显受抑，而支气管肺泡灌洗液PMN坏死比例显减少，呼吸爆发能力显增强。结论：在内毒素血症时，扣押于肺组织中的PMN在凋亡和坏死上表现出与比例显减少，呼吸爆发能力显增强，结论：在内毒素血症时，扣押于肺组织中的PMN在凋亡和坏死上表现出与外周血PMN不同的改变，其结果是组织中PMN存活增加，并持续处于活化状态，这与PMN造成组织损伤有关。     

Safety and reliability of external fixation for basicervical and intertrochanteric fractures in high-risk elderly patients

Forty elderly patients with basicervical and pertrochanteric fractures were managed with uniplanar AO external fixator under regional anaesthetic block of the femoral nerve and lateral cutaneous nerve of the thigh from April 2003 to March 2006. The mean age of the patients was 67.9 ± 5.5 years. External fixator application was performed under radiological control after closed reduction had been obtained. Comorbid factors, duration of surgery, duration of hospitalisation, complications, walking ability, time to union and mortality rate were recorded. Patients were followed up for a mean period of 12 ± 4.5 months. Superficial pin tract infection occurred in 13 patients, healing in varus >10° and with shortening >2 cm occurred in six patients, and one patient suffered a spontaneous ipsilateral femoral neck fracture after removal of the fixator. The mean time for union was 10.4 ± 1.2 weeks. Rapid union rate and minor complications obtained in the present study are comparable to those obtained with standard internal fixation techniques. Minimal intraoperative blood loss, short operative time and early patient mobilisation are advantages signifying uniplanar external fixator application under regional anaesthetic block to be a viable option in treatment of basicervical and pertrochanteric fractures in high-risk elderly patients.     

股骨干粉碎性骨折的治疗

近年来随着交通运输业的发展,由于高能伤所导致创伤骨科中骨折粉碎程度愈来愈重,甚至使骨骼失去完整形态,尤其在股骨干部位,治疗极其困难,开放复位损伤大且达不到满意的固定,疗效不佳。我们最大限度地使用外固定器,很好地解决了这一难题,同样适用于肱骨和胫骨骨折。1临床资料本组12例,均为男性,年龄18~40岁,平均31.3岁。左侧5例,右侧7例。其中交通事故伤8例,高处坠落伤3例,摔伤1例。闭合伤10例,开放伤2例。骨折均为粉碎性,无软组织及血管神经损伤。2治疗方法患者麻醉后仰卧于骨科牵引手术床上,注意使患肢靠外,消毒铺巾后,保持下肢中立位轻度…     

Vertebral body replacement system Synex in unstable burst fractures of the thoracic and lumbar spine

A prospective longitudinal study was performed to evaluate the vertebral body replacement system Synex associated with posterior fixation in unstable burst fractures of the lumbar and thoracic spine. Within 24 months, we treated 28 patients (average age, 41 years; range, 22–64 years; 14 women, 14 men) with acute unstable burst fractures without osteoporosis of the thoracolumbar region (n=16) and the thoracic (n=3) as well as the lumbar (n=9) spine in two stages (primary dorsal transpedicular stabilization and secondary vertebral body replacement). The complications were analyzed and the postoperative follow-up result was evaluated regarding stability, bone fusion, correction loss, pain and neurological status. One patient showed a transient irritation of the lumbosacral plexus and one patient had a superficial wound infection (complication rate, 7.1%). At the follow-up examination (mean follow-up, 13 months) only in two cases a minimal loss of correction (<5°) was measured. Radiologically, 27 patients showed secure bone fusions and all patients had stability of the osteosynthesis. Most of the patients stated no or just slight pain at follow-up. Only two patients with pain to a medium degree had to take painkillers. The vertebral body replacement system Synex seems to be a good alternative for vertebral body replacement in unstable burst fractures of the thoracic and lumbar spine since at present follow-up it shows a high rate of bone fusion and minimal loss of correction.

磷酸钙水泥填充固定桡骨远端骨折的抗旋转生物力学研究

目的对磷酸钙水泥(CPC)填充固定桡骨远端骨折的抗旋转应力进行评价,并与传统的克氏针固定方法进行比较。方法18根人桡骨标本制备桡骨远端骨折伴骨缺损模型,随机分为三组:克氏针固定组、CPC固定组和CPC 克氏针联合固定组。设定扭转速度为5°／min,最大扭转角度为10°时停止。记录扭转刚度、10°内的最大扭矩及所对应的最大扭角。结果在10°的扭转范围内,CPC固定组、CPC 克氏针联合固定组的扭转刚度、最大扭矩均比克氏针固定组大,差异有统计学意义(P< 0．01);最大扭转角度分别为4．3°和5．0°,均比克氏针组(9．6°)小,差异有统计学意义(P<0．01)。CPC固定组与CPC 克氏针联合固定组之间的扭转刚度、最大扭矩及最大扭角差异无统计学意义(P> 0．05)。结论在旋转角度小于4°范围内,CPC的抗旋转固定强度要比克氏针大,超过这个范围,骨水泥就会发生断裂,CPC的有效固定范围比克氏针要小。
