Immobilization Related to Early Linear Growth

ABSTRACT. This study shows that children with late-diagnosed congenital dislocation of the hip (CDH) have close to normal height development during the initial 6.0 years of life. The treatment consisted of immobilization for 0.5 to 1.3 years starting between 0.2 and 0.7 years of age. The present work addresses one specific issue that is related to the age at onset of the childhood component of the ICP growth model. The onset normally appears between 0.5 and 1.0 year of age, and is recognized as an increase in length/height velocity. The onset is thus found during a period of increasing motor activity. The normal successive change from sitting to walking position may have some influence on the onset of this tempo change in early linear growth. The present documentation implies that there is no such influence. In all 14 children with CDH, the onset manifested during the period of immobilization, and the average age at onset was found to be Virtually equivalent with that of the controls. Our conclusion is that immobilization has no significant influence on the age at onset of the childhood phase of growth. The onset is accomplished independent of body position, be it lying down or normal for the age.     

鼻眶筛骨折手术治疗的临床评价

目的　探讨鼻眶筛骨折的手术入路、骨折复位与坚固内固定及合并眼球内陷的处理方法。方法　对 17例鼻眶筛骨折患者进行回顾性研究 ,根据CT结果与Fedor骨折分型分为三型 ,其中Ⅰ型 1例 ,Ⅱ型 7例 ,Ⅲ型 9例 ;13例选用鼻根正中入路 ,3例鼻旁入路 ,7例需同时附加眶下切口。 8例合并眼球内陷者采用眼球赤道后方碘仿纱条填塞与植骨矫正法。结果　①本组病例平均内眦宽度和内眦宽度 /外眦宽度比例从 ( 35± 7)mm、( 37± 8) %恢复到 ( 32± 4 )mm、( 35± 7) %比较正常水平 ;②面部外形全部恢复到正常或接近正常 ;③ 8例眼球内陷患者术后 6例恢复到基本正常 ,2例术后仍有轻度凹陷 ,5例复视术后全部消失。结论　鼻根正中入路附加眶下切口可充分显露骨折片 ,结合坚固内固定技术可使骨折片解剖复位 ;内眦韧带复位固定是本手术关键所在 ,重建正常眶内容积和眶内容物准确复位 ,以解决眼球内陷和眼球运动受限问题     

中长跑和芭蕾舞运动中胫骨应力骨折的比较

胫骨应力骨折（ＳＦ）在芭蕾舞和中长跑运动员中均有一定发病率，作者调查某部新兵２６５人每日５０００米跑步，其胫骨应力骨折病发率为１１．６８％（３１／２６５人），骨折部位多在胫骨中段中后侧。芭蕾舞演员胫骨应力骨折病发率为８％（１５／６０人），骨折部位在胫骨下段前侧。应用新鲜尸体标本作负荷下胫骨多处的应变测定模拟跑步和足跟垫高模仿芭蕾舞时下肢负重位置的应变变化，分别于胫骨中段后侧测得有高压应力和胫骨下段前方有高张应力，此结果与调查中Ｘ线片病变部位相符。作者认为不同的运动使负重时胫骨所处姿势各不相同，而造成胫骨最大应力集中点位置各异，是造成芭蕾舞运动和中长跑运动中应力骨折部位不同的主要原因，预防和治疗工作应根据各自的应力性质和集中点部位来进行防治。     

MR appearance of parasymphyseal insufficiency fractures of the os pubis

 Objective. To clarify the MRI features of parasymphyseal insufficiency fractures of the os pubis. Design and patients. MRI was performed in four postmenopausal women with parasymphyseal insufficiency fractures. The diagnosis was confirmed with plain films in every patient. T1-weighted and T2-weighted images were obtained in four patients using a 1.5-T unit. Postcontrast T1-weighted imaging was also done in three patients. Results and conclusions. MRI of pubic parasymphyseal insufficiency fracture characteristically demonstrates a hyperintense mass lesion with a hypointense rim on T2-weighted imaging, showing peripheral and septal enhancement after contrast administration. It is important to have this entity in mind in patients with osteoporosis, especially in patients with a history of pelvic irradiation for malignant disease, so as not to misinterpret it as a chondroid tumor or bone metastasis.     

Enchondroma of the hand – clinical evaluation of diagnosis, surgical treatment, and outcome

Summary Enchondroma are benign cartilaginous tumors and are localized most often at the site of the phalanges. Between 1982 and 1993 73 patients with monostotic enchondroma and 5 patients with polyostotic enchondroma were operated at our clinic. Clinical signs of monostotic tumors were pathological fracture (38.4 %), pain or swelling. Eleven percent of cases were accidental findings. Surgical treatment was performed by complete removal of the tumors and filling the bone cavity with autologous spongiosa taken from the pelvic bones, the elbow, or the radius. Three patients (4.1 %) had to be operated a second time due to wound infections and hematoma. In one case Sudeck's dystrophy was diagnosed. One patient (1.4 %) developed a recurrent tumor. Our follow-up examination of 65 patients showed that 77 % of the patients with monostotic enchondroma achieve very good or good functional long-term results after this operation, but only 40 % of the patients with polyostotic enchondroma.      

Grose-Kempf 带锁髓内钉在股骨干骨折中的应用

作者从１９８８～１９９５年末用Ｇｒｏｓｅ－ｋｅｍｐｆ钉（简称ＧＫ钉）治疗股骨干骨折４９例（５０个股骨），其中新鲜骨折２９例（３０个股骨），陈旧性骨折１６例，病理骨折４例。外伤性骨折４５例中，随访半年以上４３例，骨折全部愈合，下肢功能及关节活动良好。４例病理骨折，其中３例术后分别存活１６个月、１８个月、２４个月，另１例为成骨不全，术后患肢功能较健侧无差别。ＧＫ钉扩大了髓内钉手术适应证，可用于股骨干的粉碎性骨折、多发性骨折、陈旧性骨折不愈合及病理性骨折。对于合并脑干损伤、血管损伤、骨筋膜室综合征的股骨干骨折，用ＧＫ钉固定，获得了理想的治疗效果。     

OUTCOME AFTER FRACTURES OF THE FEMUR IN PAGET'S DISEASE

We reviewed ninety-three patients who had one hundred and seven complete fractures of the femur between them and were treated over a twenty-five year period in Western Australia and South Australia. Operative surgical management of complete fractures in the middle and distal thirds was usually successful. In contrast, fractures proximal to the middle third were regularly associated with non-union, implant failure and requirement for revision surgery. In view of this significant difference in outcome after fracture of the pagetic femur in different sites, a comprehensive surgical management strategy is recommended in order to avoid complications.
