Osteochondral Fracture of the Fourth Metatarsal Head Treated by Open Reduction and Internal Fixation

Fracture of the metatarsal head is uncommon, and reports of isolated osteochondral fracture of the metatarsal head are rare. Because of the distal location of the fracture, it is difficult to achieve and maintain reduction, and potential complications include avascular necrosis and subchondral fatigue fracture. The authors present a case of an osteochondral fracture in a 40-year-old man, which was treated by open reduction and internal fixation with a single twist-off screw, with good results 12 months postoperatively.

纸夹板内收位固定与石膏外展位固定治疗Bennett骨折的随机对照试验

目的：研究比较纸夹板内收位固定与石膏外展位固定治疗Bennett骨折的疗效差异。方法：选择2005年10月至2007年4月门诊就诊的70例Bennett骨折患者，按区组随机的方法分为试验组35例（纸夹板内收位固定）和对照组35例（石膏外展位固定）进行治疗。骨折达到临床愈合拆除固定后，对患者进行为期6个月的随访观察。分别于骨折后6、8、12、16、20及24周按改良的Gabriele评分系统对其患手功能进行量化评分比较。结果：两组的优良率在8、12、16及20周时比较试验组优于对照组，差异有统计学意义（P〈0．05）；6周和24周时比较差异无统计学意义（P〉0．05）。两组在功能评分方面，8、12、16、20及24周时比较试验组高于对照组，差异有统计学意义（P〈0．05）；6周时积分差异无统计学意义（P〉0．05）。结论：在Bennett骨折的治疗中，纸夹板内收位固定与石膏外展位固定相比能明显加快患手功能的恢复，而且固定轻便、舒适，患者易于接受，可以作为一种有效的固定方法在临床推广。     

地震伤中小腿开放性骨折的特点及治疗经验

四川汶川发生里氏8.0级地震后,第二军医大学第七医疗队于5月15日凌晨抵达重灾区江油市,至7月7日离开54d中,共处理开放性胫腓骨骨折43例.山于地震伤在不同时期、不同震级、不同地理环境及建筑物条件下都有其不同的特点,加上胫腓骨开放性骨折的高致残率(截肢、感染、肢体短缩)在地震伤中的高发生率[1],故将这43例的病例特点及我们的救治体会总结如下.     

Ipsilateral mid-third clavicle fracture with grade V acromioclavicular joint dislocation

We report the case of a 20-year-old man with an ipsilateral mid-third clavicle fracture with grade V acromioclavicular joint (ACJ) dislocation. The combination of these two injuries is rare. A literature search produced various treatment algorithms. In this case, the patient was successfully treated with a Bosworth screw.This work was carried out in the Department of Orthopaedics, William Harvey Hospital, Ashford, Kent, UK     

Biology and Biomechanics in Osteosynthesis of Proximal Humerus Fractures

Abstract Surgical treatment of proximal humeral fractures still remains a challenge. This is primarily due to the fact that sufficient implant fixation in humeral head fractures is often not achieved due to substantial bone tissue loss with increasing age. In the last few years the locking plates and locking nails have been introduced into clinical practice with varying results. The biomechanical studies have focused on locking plate osteosynthesis as well. The following paper focuses on bone quality, biomechanical studies and biology of proper osteosynthesis and reviews the most recent literature.     

Postmenopausal Women With Colles'' Fracture Have Lower Values of Bone Mineral Density Than Controls as Measured by Quantitative Ultrasound and Densitometry

Measurement of ultrasonographic parameters provides information concerning not only bone density but also bone architecture. We investigated the usefulness of ultrasonographic parameters and bone mineral density (BMD) to evaluate the probability of Colles' fracture. Two-hundred eighty-nine postmenopausal women (62.3 +/- 8.7 yr) with (n = 76) and without (n = 213) Colles' fracture were studied. BMD of lumbar spine and proximal femur was evaluated in all women by dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DXA) and speed of sound (SOS), broadband ultrasound attenuation (BUA), and stiffness in the calcaneus were measured by a Sahara ultrasonometer (Hologic). Patients suffering from Colles' fracture had lower values of BMD adjusted by height at the lumbar spine, L2-L4 (0.797 g/cm2 vs 0.860 g/cm2), femoral neck (0.685 g/cm2 vs 0.712 g/cm2 ), SOS (1518 m/sg vs 1525 m/sg), and stiffness (74.6 vs 77.7) (p < 0.05). Nevertheless, BUA values were similar in both groups. After stepwise logistic regression analysis, the area found under receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curves was 0.60 for L2L4 and 0.63 for a formula combining L2L4 and height. Our data suggest that patients suffering from Colles' fracture have lower values of BMD by DXA, SOS, and stiffness. However, the ability of these techniques to discriminate is low because the values for the area under ROC curve are 0.60 for L2-L4 and 0.63 for a formula derived of the combination of L2-L4 and height.     

Adhesive fragment reattachment after orthodontic extrusion: a case report

Abstract –  In the treatment of crown fractures, adhesive fragment reattachment provides a good alternative to other restorative techniques, offering several advantages. The present paper reports a case in which the treatment of a cervical crown fracture was accomplished by reattaching the tooth fragment with a flowable resin composite. Orthodontic root extrusion was performed with a modified Hawley appliance prior to fragment reattachment. The clinical and radiographic results after 2.5 years were successful.
