ObjectiveTo study the surgical treatment method and effectiveness of Rüedi-Allg?wer Ⅲ type Pilon fractures.
MethodsBetween May 2011 and April 2013,25 cases of Rüedi-Allg?wer Ⅲ type Pilon fracture (5 cases of open fractures and 20 cases of closed fractures) were treated.Of 25 cases,16 were male,and 9 were female,aged 24-45 years (mean,31 years).The left side was involved in 8 cases,and the right side in 17 cases.The disease causes were falling from height in 11 cases,traffic accident injury in 9 cases,and crash injury in 5 cases.The interval of injury and admission was 10-36 hours (mean,23.5 hours).The open reduction and internal fixation by posterolateral fibular incision and exposure of distal tibia and tibiotalar articular surface by anterior ankle incision were performed;the tibiotalar articular surface was reset and the tibia fracture end was fixed.
ResultsHealing of incision by first intention was obtained in 15 cases,and healing by second intention in 6 cases undergoing skin grafting.Tension blister occurred in 4 patients,who achieved healing by second intention after treatment.All 25 patients were followed up 6-12 months (mean,8 months).During follow-up,no complication of ankle joint instability,traumatic arthritis,or loosening and breakage of internal fixation occurred.The X-ray films showed stable ankle joint,anatomic or near anatomic reduction of the tibiotalar articular surface,normal alignment of distal tibia,and good bony healing.At 6 to 12 months after operation,the flexion and extension of the ankle were normal,without pain of the ankle joint after removal of internal fixation.According to Mazur et al.rating system for ankle symptoms and function,the results were excellent in 5 cases,good in 12 cases,fair in 5 cases,and poor in 3 cases;the excellent and good rate was 68%.
ConclusionThe procedure by anterior ankle lateral approach and posterolateral fibular approach can completely expose the tibiotalar articular surface,which is advantageous to displaced fracture reduction and fixation,and can achieve good effectiveness in treating Rüedi-Allg?wer Ⅲ type Pilon fractures.
Objective To study the surgical reconstruction for correction of enophthalmos deformity caused by orbital blowout fractures. Methods From December 1996 to March 2004, 56 cases of enophthalmos deformity caused by orbital blow-out fracture were repaired. There were 37 cases diplopia, 35 cases with worsened visual acuity than pretrauma. Typical sub-ciliary incision was employed to expose the fractured area.The dissection was done beneath the medial and inferior obital periosteum. The fracture areas were exposed and the tissues protrusing to sinus maxillaries were released through the space between fractural bones. After the medial and inferior orbital walls and orbital floors were exposed,the herniated orbital contents were released and reduced to the orbital cavity. The fractured orbital walls were repaired precisely with Medpor which were fixed to the area beneaththe periosteum with 2 plates at least. Results All 56 cases ofenophthalmos deformity caused by orbital blow-out fracture repaired with this technique recovered well and their facial appearance improved greatly. With a follow-up ranged from 2 months to 5 years, the degree of enophthalmos stabilized at within 2 mm, no relapse and other complications occurred. Of 34 patients with diplopia, 27 were improved. Of the 35 cases with worsened visual acuity, 9 were improved with different degree. No diplopia or visual acuity worsening occurred. Conclusion It is safe and effectiveto correct the orbital blow-out fractures. The earlier it is repaired, thebetter the effect will be. Medpor with its advantages like better histocompatibility, easier sculpturing, moderate hardness, lower absorptivity, fewer complications and permanence effect is the preferable implantation material for correcting enophthalmos deformity.
Since October 1984, we have designed a method of conversed transplant of radial styloid bone flap with fascial pedicle in the treatment of 22 patients with non-united waist fractures of carpal scaphoid. The results from follow-up of 2-7 years were satisfactory.This article introduced the design of the bone flap, the operative procedure and the advantages of the bone flap.
Objective To study the effect and complication of repairing depressed fracture of frontal part with hydroxylapatite particulate artificial bone. Methods From January 1994 to December 2002, 13 patients were all diagnosed as having depressed fracture of frontal part with clinical and X-ray examinations. Thesmall incision before the hair-edge or local small incision was made. After opening the incision, we performed creeping decollement. Then the hydroxylapatite particulate artificial bone was implanted into the sites of the depressed fracture. The effect and complication were observed with clinical and X-rayexaminations in all patients 1 week, 1 month, 3 months after operation.Results The quantity of hydroxylapatite implanted was 10-30g. Primary healing was obtained in all cases without any complication. All cases were followed up for 3 months. The contours of the frontal part were restored well. Conclusion It is a good method to repair depressed fracture of frontal part with hydroxylapatite particulate artificial bone.
【摘要】 目的 探討康復宣教與訓練等干預手段對股骨干骨折患者圍手術期的影響。 方法 2010年6月-2011年3月收治股骨干骨折患者90例,其中男48例,女42例;年齡17~58歲,平均38歲。開放性骨折28例,閉合性骨折62例。股骨骨折部位:上1/3骨折33例,中1/3骨折35例,下1/3骨折20例,多段骨折2例。橫形骨折20例,斜形骨折30例,粉碎性骨折40例。將90例患者隨機分為康復組(46例)和對照組(44例)。對照組采用骨科術前常規處理,康復組采用骨科術前常規處理加康復宣教與訓練。 結果 康復組住院時間為(5.35±1.27) d,對照組為(7.67±1.85) d,兩組比較差異有統計學意義(Plt;0.05)。 康復組治療后發生并發癥7例,對照組16例,康復組并發癥發生率(15.2%)明顯低于對照組(36.4%),差異有統計學意義(Plt;0.05)。治療后5 d,康復組療效獲優35例,良6例,可3例,差2例,優良率89.1%;對照組獲優25例,良5例,可12例,差2例,優良率68.2%;兩組療效比較差異有統計學意義(Plt;0.05)。 結論 康復宣教與訓練能預防與改善股骨干骨折圍手術期臥床引起的并發癥,減輕患者腿部疼痛及腫脹,縮短圍手術期時間,使患者能盡早手術,加快住院床位周轉,提高患者生活質量。【Abstract】 Objective To explore the effects of rehabilitation education and training interventions on perioperative patients with femoral shaft fractures. Methods A total of 90 patients with femoral shaft fractures were selected from June 2010 to March 2011, including 48 males and 42 females aged from 17 to 58 years (mean 38 years). In these 90 patients, open fracture was in 28 and closed fracture was in 62. Fracture site: upper 1/3 fracture was in 33, middle 1/3 fracture was in 35, lower 1/3 fracture was in 20 and multiple fractures was in 2. There were transverse fractures in 20 patients, oblique fractures in 30 patients and comminuted fractures in 40 patients. All of the patients were randomly divided into experimental group (46 patients) and control group (44 patients). The patients in the control group underwent the routine treatment before the orthopedic surgery; besides the routine treatment, the patients in the experimental group were given the rehabilitation education and training before the orthopedic surgery. Results The hospital duration in the rehabilitation group was (5.35±1.27) days while in the control group was (7.67±1.85) days, the difference was statistically significant (Plt;0.05). There were 7 cases who had complications in rehabilitation group compared with 16 patients in the control group; the incidence of the complications in the rehabilitation group (15.2%) was significantly lower than that in the control group (36.4%) (Plt;0.05). After the treatment for 5 days, the therapeutic effect in rehabilitation group were excellent in 35 cases, good in 6 cases, middle in 3 cases and poor in 2 cases (with the good rate of 89.1%); while in the control group were excellent in 25 cases, good in 5 cases, middle in 12 cases and poor in 2 cases (with the good rate of 68.2%); the difference was significant between the two groups (Plt;0.05). Conclusion Rehabilitation education and training could prevent the perioperative complications in patients with femoral shaft fracture, decrease the pain and edema, speed up the turnover of hospital beds, and improve the patients’ quality of life.
