目的探讨应用NT-PC治疗髌骨骨折的方法及治疗结果。方法根据NT-PC结构及固定原理对30例髌骨骨折的治疗。结果30例髌骨骨折髌关节面均达到解剖复位,患者能下地行走,扶栏杆或徒手上下一层楼、屈膝平均达到90°的时间是1.5～3.5周。患膝关节伸、屈活动范围达到健侧水平的时间是2～10周。结论根据NT-PC的特点治疗髌骨骨折,尤其是粉碎性骨折,不但在术中容易得到髌关节面的解剖复位,而且术后能有效地将其维持,固定于解剖位直至骨质愈合。术后可早期活动,无需石膏固定,无膝关节功能障碍。     

Cast immobilization in bayonet position versus reduction and pin fixation of overriding distal metaphyseal radius fractures in children under ten years of age: a case control study

PurposeCompletely displaced distal radius fractures in children have been traditionally reduced and immobilized with a cast or pin fixed. Cast immobilization leaving the fracture displaced in the bayonet position has been recently suggested as a non-invasive and effective treatment alternative. This is a pilot comparative study between reduction and no reduction.MethodsWe assessed subjective, functional and radiographic outcome after a minimum 2.5-year follow-up in 12 children under ten years of age who had sustained a completely displaced metaphyseal radius fracture, which had been immobilized leaving the fracture in an overriding position (shortening 3 mm to 9 mm). A total of 12 age-matched patients, whose similar fractures were reduced and pin fixed, were chosen for controls. ResultsAt follow-up none of the 24 patients had visible forearm deformity and the maximal angulation in radiographs was 5° Forearm and wrist movement was restored (< 10° of discrepancy) in all 24 patients. Grip strength ratio was normal in all but three surgically treated patients. All patients had returned to their previous activities. One operatively treated boy who was re-operated on reported of pain (visual analogue scale 2).ConclusionThe results of this study do not demonstrate the superiority of reduction and pin fixation over cast immobilization in the bayonet position of closed overriding distal metaphyseal radius fractures in children under ten years with normal neurovascular findings.Level of evidenceIII     

The Effect of Providing Audiovisual Surgical Information on Decisional Conflict in Patients Undergoing Plate Fixation for Distal Radius Fractures

BackgroudPatients experiencing acute trauma have limited time for their involvement in shared decision making, which may lead to decisional conflict. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether providing audiovisual surgical information can reduce decisional conflict when deciding between surgical and nonsurgical treatment in patients with distal radius fractures (DRFs) and to evaluate factors that may affect decisional conflict.MethodsWe prospectively enrolled 50 consecutive patients who presented with acute DRFs and chose to undergo surgery, for which volar plate fixation was recommended. We randomized these patients into 2 groups. The test group was given a video clip of audiovisual surgical information in addition to regular information while the control group was only given regular information. The video clip consisted of the purpose, procedure, and effect of the surgery, precautions and complications after the operation, and other treatment options that could be performed if operation was not performed. At 2 weeks after the surgery, we evaluated patients'' decisional conflict using a decisional conflict scale (DCS). In addition, we evaluated factors that might affect decisional conflict, such as age, dominant hand, comorbidities, history of previous operations, perceived disability, and provision of the video clip.ResultsThe test group showed significantly lower DCS scores than the control group (19.6 vs. 32.1, p = 0.001). In multivariate analysis, younger age and provision of the video clip were associated with lower DCS scores.ConclusionsThis study has demonstrated that providing information through audiovisual media such as video clips could reduce decisional conflict in patients who chose to undergo plate fixation for DRFs. This study also suggests that older patients may need more careful doctor-patient communication as they have more decisional conflict than younger patients.     

股骨颈骨折不同角度固定的生物力学比较研究

本文通过测量２０个股骨上段标本，Ｘ线片的压力骨小梁系统，按照其骨小梁系统采用低角度固定其股骨颈骨折标本，以临床常用角度固定的股骨颈骨折标本作为对照组，进行静力学测定。股骨上段骨小梁系统与股骨纵轴线所成角度均数为１５４．７±１．９度，骨小梁系统与股骨外侧骨皮质交点到大转子距离均数为７．３±１．０ｃｍ。低角度固定组承载力及最大承载力明显大于对照组（Ｐ＜０．０５），且有更小的旋转移位（Ｐ＜０．０５）。本研究将低角度固定概念量化，对股骨颈骨折内固定的使用有显著的临床指导意义。     

Reduction and stabilization of lumbar and thoracolumbar spine fractures with Louis' plates and internal fixator: a comparative study

Summary In this retrospective study, 28 patients who presented isolated fractures from T11 to L4 were surgically treated using a posterior approach. The fractures were reduced and stabilized in half of the cases with Louis' plates and in the other half with an internal fixator. Twelve patients had partial neurological deficits on admission. They were reviewed after a mean period of 24 months from time of injury, and 10 months after implant removal. The kyphosis of the fractured vertebral body was measured, and showed a mean value of 18° before surgery and 10.3° at the last visit. The regional statics of the spine were also studied. The residual mobility of the fixated and neighbouring spinal units was assessed, comparing long segment fixation (plates) with short segment fixation (internal fixator). The residual mobility of the adjacent, non-fixed segments was significantly better when the internal fixator had been used than with the Louis' plates. Of the 12 patients with neurological involvement, 11 had increased their Frankel score by one grade. Results were evaluated by clinical parameters (pain, neurological deficit, occupational disability); scores were as follows: 32% good, 57% satisfactory and 11% poor. There was no significant difference in clinical score between the two treatment modalities.

An external approach without tracheotomy for submucosal cordectomy with laterofixation for bilateral abductor paralysis of the vocal folds

There are numerous surgical procedures now available to manage bilateral abductor paralyses of the vocal folds. These procedures have various success rates but mostly do not offer reliable and predictable postoperative results, and usually require ,tracheotomy. The technique described in this report is based on a trial study to obtain a safe airway for an affected patient and avoid tracheotomy, if possible. Submucosal cordectomy was used with lateral fixation of one vocal fold and preservation of the arytenoid. The procedure was performed by using continuous intravenous anesthesia, which does not require intubation of the patient's airway. Seven patients were operated with this technique with excellent postoperative results. The glottal airway was largely improved in all patients, with only minor temporary complications.
