Tibial-talar dislocation without fracture: treatment principles and outcome

The incidence of tibial-talar dislocations without fracture is unknown and has been sparsely reported in the literature. The diagnosis of the injury is straightforward with the appropriate examination and roentgenograms. Good to excellent results can be achieved with open or closed dislocations treated by closed reduction and immobilization for 4–6 weeks. Although open dislocations require irrigation, debridement, and possibly delayed closure, controversy exists with regard to acute ligament repair. Because good to excellent results are possible without acute ligament repair, and delayed repair on reconstruction can be accomplished with good outcomes, we recommend treating these injuries without ligament repair.     

Open reduction and varus-detorsion osteotomy with femoral shortening in treatment of congenital dislocation of the hip

In this study, we clinically and radiographically evaluated open reduction with shortening of the femur in children more than 1 year old with refractory congenital dislocation of the hip. In 19 children (aged 1–4 years), 22 joints were operated on. The patients were followed-up for an average of 8.7 years (range, 2–13 years). Functional results were satisfactory in all joints, and differences in limb length were not significant. Radiographically, good results (grades I and II) were obtained in 16 of the 22 joints, according to Severin's criteria. This surgical procedure may be indispensable for treating refractory congenital dislocation of the hip in children over 1 year old.

肩锁关节及关节盘的相关解剖学特征

背景:目前临床上多数认为,肩部疾病如肩锁关节脱位、肩峰下撞击综合征等与肩锁关节的解剖形态有很大的关系,但国内外文献很少有关于肩锁关节的形态学数据支持,特别对于肩锁关节关节盘的解剖学研究。同时肩锁关节属于微动关节,参与肩关节的联合运动,现临床上有关肩锁关节脱位的手术方式繁多,较流行的手术方式多为刚性固定,并未保留其微动特点以及锁骨和肩胛骨的运动特点,其中关节盘的取舍目前国内外并无大样本多中心对照研究。目的:对肩锁关节及关节盘行相关解剖学研究,用于更好地指导肩部疾病的诊治。方法:对58具肩锁关节尸体标本(同济大学解剖教研室提供)进行形态学及组织结构研究,共获得58个肩峰、58个锁骨和36个关节盘(包括完全型和不完全型)。采用BIGLIANI肩峰形态分型、DEPALMA锁骨形态分型、EMURA肩锁关节盘分型,获得各肩峰与锁骨组合下关节盘出现的频率并行苏木精-伊红染色(上海市普陀区人民医院提供)。结果与结论:①在58个肩锁关节尸体中,肩锁关节盘type1型共15例,所占比例最高,为25.9%;type3a型共4例,所占比例最少,为6.9%。②Ⅰ型肩峰32个,所占比例最高,为55.2%;Ⅲ型肩峰3个,所占比例最低,为5.2%。③Ⅰ型锁骨27个,所占比例最高,为46.6%;Ⅲ型锁骨9个,所占比例最低,为15.5%。④以Ⅰ型及Ⅱ型肩峰与Ⅰ型锁骨组合所占比例较大,分别为24.1%和22.4%,以Ⅲ型肩峰对Ⅰ型锁骨所占比例最小,为0%。⑤而在Ⅰ型肩峰与Ⅰ型锁骨组合下type1型和type2b型关节盘所占比例最大,分别为35.7%和28.6%;Ⅱ型肩峰与Ⅰ型锁骨组合下type2a型和type1型关节盘所占比例最大,分别为38.5%和23.1%。⑥苏木精-伊红染色在组织切片中可以发现,关节盘中的细胞外基质清晰可辨,细胞形态饱满,含有丰富的细胞质,提示为软骨细胞,即形成纤维软骨的主要成分。此外,从关节囊顶端和底端两侧可见部分骨膜纤维层移行至关节盘内侧,考虑共同组成关节盘结构,即关节盘由近骨面的软骨细胞及远离骨面的纤维层共同构成。

Significance of the latissimus dorsi for shoulder instability. I. Variations in its anatomy around the humerus and scapula

In a cadaveric instability model that leaves all muscles intact initially, we studied anteroinferior glenohumeral dislocation behavior after section of the ligaments on the humeral side of the joint. In this study, the latissimus dorsi seemed to play a role when complete section did not result in a locked anteroinferior dislocation. We therefore initiated a study to test the hypothesis that the latissimus dorsi may, in certain circumstances, depending on variations in its anatomy, influence dislocation behavior. Here, in Part I, we present the results of the anatomic study of latissimus dorsi and its tendons. The anatomy of the latissimus dorsi pertaining to the scapula and humerus was studied in 100 cadaver specimens. The distance between the uppermost part of the tendon of both the latissimus dorsi and the teres major and the edge of the articular cartilage of the humeral head (tendon-cartilage distance, TCD) as well as the width and length of the tendons were measured. Furthermore, the relationship between latissimus dorsi and the inferior angle of the scapula was studied. The tendon of the latissimus dorsi inserted at a variable distance from the cartilage of the humeral head: the TCD ranged from 12.6 to 31.6 mm (mean 21.06 mm+/-5.11 mm). The latissimus dorsi can have muscular fibers arising from the inferior angle of the scapula (type 1 scapular connection, 43%). Alternatively, there may be only a few fibrous strands between the muscle and the scapula or there may be an intervening bursa (type 2 scapular connection, 57%). This variability in the morphology of the latissimus dorsi may be a factor explaining the differences observed in a study of humerus-based sequential cutting of the glenohumeral capsule. This possibility is explored in Part II of the study. The latissimus dorsi may also complete the tendinous protection of the humeral side of the capsule generally provided by the rotator cuff.

Male with type II autosomal recessive cutis laxa

A 5-year-old boy, who had pre- and postnatal growth retardation, delayed motor development, cutis laxa, delayed closure of large fontanels, congenital hip dislocation and characteristic facies, is described. Disorders with cutis laxa are now divided into five types. The patient had clinical manifestations very similar to those of cutis laxa with bone dystrophy (type II autosomal recessive cutis laxa). Eighteen patients have been reported, the ratio of males to females being 5 to 14. This is the fifth case of this disorder occurring in a male, which provides further evidence for autosomal recessive inheritance.     

Ectopia lentis in Loeys‐Dietz syndrome type 4

Loeys‐Dietz syndrome is a heritable disorder of the connective tissue leading to multisystem involvement including craniofacial features, skeletal abnormalities, cutaneous findings and early‐onset and aggressive disease of the aorta and its branches. There are multiple types of Loeys‐Dietz syndrome related to pathogenic variants in TGFBR1, TGFBR2, SMAD3, TGFB2, and TGFB3. Individuals with Loeys‐Dietz syndrome may be misdiagnosed as having Marfan syndrome due to shared phenotypic features and aortic root dilation. However, ectopia lentis has been an important discriminating feature, being unique to Marfan syndrome and not reported to be associated with Loeys‐Dietz syndrome. We report the case of a 46‐year‐old woman with Loeys‐Dietz syndrome type 4 due to a pathogenic variant in TGFB2 who was diagnosed with ectopia lentis at age 44. The patient underwent whole exome sequencing and no other pathogenic variants were found to explain the ectopia lentis. Our findings indicate that ectopia lentis may be an uncommon finding in Loeys‐Dietz syndrome type 4 and emphasize the importance of genetic testing in familial thoracic aortic aneurysm disease.
