Methods: From January 2022 to December 2023, 70 patients with traumatic fractures of long bones in the lower extremities were admitted to the hospital and randomly divided into two groups: the control group and the observation group, each consisting of 35 cases. The control group underwent traditional closed interlocking intramedullary nailing, while the observation group received internal fixation with steel plates and screws. Relevant surgical indicators, treatment effectiveness, and postoperative complication rates were compared between the two groups. Results: The observation group exhibited significantly short surgical duration (80.65 ± 5.01 vs. 88.36 ± 5.26 minutes), fracture healing time (13.27 ± 0.32 vs. 15.52 ± 0.48 weeks), and hospitalization days (10.49 ± 1.13 vs. 16.57 ± 1.15 days) compared to the control group (P = 0.000). The effective treatment rate was significantly higher in the observation group (29/82.86%) than in the control group (21/60.00%), with a significant difference observed (χ2 = 4.480, P = 0.034). Additionally, the complication rate in the observation group (2/5.71%) was significantly lower than that in the control group (8/22.86%), with a correlated difference (χ2 = 4.200, P = 0.040). Conclusion: The plate screw internal fixation technique demonstrates significant clinical efficacy in treating traumatic fractures of long bones in the lower extremities. It improves the healing rate, reduces complications, and represents a safe and effective treatment strategy worthy of widespread use and application.展开更多

However...Purpose: The proximal femoral nail anti-rotation (PFNA) is known to have advantages in enhancing the anchorage ability of internal fixation in elderly unstable osteoporotic intertrochanteric fracture patients. However whether it is superior to condylar blade fixation is not clear. This study aimed to determine which treatment has better clinical outcomes in older patients. Materials and Methods: A total of 86 patients over the age of 60 with unstable trochanteric fractures within the past 3 weeks, were included in this prospective study conducted from June 1, 2018, to May 31, 2021. All the intertrochanteric fractures were classified according to AO/OTA classification. Among them, 44 cases were treated with the Proximal Femoral Nail (PFNA2) with or without an augmentation screw, and 42 cases were treated with the Condylar Blade Plate. In addition, the operative time, intraoperative blood loss, intraoperative and postoperative blood transfusion, postoperative weight-bearing time, hospitalization time, Harris score of hip function, Kyle’s criteria and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups. Results: The mean duration of surgery for the PFN group was 66.8 minutes (on average), whereas for the condylar blade plate group, it was 99.30 minutes (on average). The PFNA2 group experienced less blood loss (average of 80 mL) compared to the condylar blade plate group (average of 120 mL). Union and partial weight-bearing occurred earlier in the PFNA2 group (14.1 weeks and 10.6 weeks, respectively) compared to the Condylar blade plate group (18.7 weeks and 15.8 weeks). In two patients from the PFNA2 group, screw backing out and varus collapse complications were encountered;however, these patients remained asymptomatic and did not require revision surgery. In two other patients, screw cut out and breakage of the nail at the helical screw hole leading to non-union of the proximal femur were observed during the nine-month follow-up, necessitating revision surgery with prosthetic replacement. Among the condylar blade plate group, three patients experienced complications, including blade breakage at the blade and plate junction. In two cases, the fracture united in varus, and in one case, the blade cut through, resulting in non-union of the femoral head, which required revision surgery. According to the Harris hip score and Kyle’s criteria, a good-excellent outcome was observed in 92.85% of cases in the PFNA2 group and 90.90% of cases in the condylar blade plate group. Conclusion: Both the Proximal Femoral Nail A2 and Condylar blade plate are effective implants for the treatment of unstable trochanteric fractures. The intramedullary implant promotes biological healing and allows for early ambulation with minimal complications. Similarly satisfactory restoration of anatomy and favorable radiological and functional results can be achieved with the biological fixation provided by the 95-degree condylar blade plate. However, the use of PFNA2 internal fixation technique has the advantage of less trauma in elderly patients than the 95-degree condylar blade plate.展开更多

Methods: Ten fresh craniocervicai specimens were microsurgicaily dissected layer by layer through transorai approach. The stratification of the posterior pharyngeal wail, the course of the vertebral artery, anatomical relationships of the adjacent structures of the atlas and axis, and the closely relevant anatomical parameters for TARP internal fixation were measured. Results: The posterior pharyngeal wall consisted of two layers and two interspaces: the mucosa, prevertebrai fascia, retropharyngeai space, and prevertebrai space. The range from the anterior edge of the foramen magnum to C3 could be exposed by this approach. The thickness of the posterior pharyngeal wall was ( 3.6 ± 0.3 ) mm (ranging 2.9-4.3 mm) at the anterior tubercle of C1, (6.1 ±0.4) mm ( ranging 5.2-7.1 mm) at the lateral mass of C1 and (5.5±0.4) mm (ranging4.3-6.5 mm) at the central part of C2, respectively. The distance from the incisor tooth to the anterior tubercle of C1, C1 screw entry point, and C2 screw entry point was (82.5 ±7.8) mm (ranging71.4-96.2 mm), (90. 1 ±3.8) mm (ranging 82.2-96.3 mm), and (89.0±4.1) mm (ranging 81.3- 95.3 mm), respectively. The distance between the vertebral artery at the atlas and the midline was (25.2 ± 2.3) mm ( ranging 20.4-29.7 mm ) and that between the vertebral artery at the axis and the midline was ( 18.4 _ 2.6 ) mm ( ranging 13.1-23.0 mm). The allowed width of the atlas and axis for exposure was (39.4 ±2. 2) mm ( ranging 36.2-42. 7 mm ) and ( 39.0 ± 2.1 ) mm ( ranging 35.8-42.3 mm ), respectively. The distance ( a ) between the two atlas screw insertion points (center of anterior aspect of C1 lateral mass ) was ( 31.4 ± 3.3 )mm ( ranging 25.4-36.6 mm). The vertical distance (b) between the line connecting the two C1 screw entry points and that connecting the two C2 screw entry points (at the central part of the vertebrae, namely 3-4 mm lateral to the midline of C2 vertebrae) was (21.3±2.7) mm (ranging 19.4- 24.3mm), with an a/b ratio of 1.3-1.5. The screws of TARP had a lateral tilt of 12.2°± 0.4° (ranging 10.2° -14.6°at C1 and a medial tilt of 7.3°±0.3° (ranging5.1°-9.4°) at C2 relative to the coronal plane. Conclusions : An atlanto-axiai surgery through transorai approach is safe and feasible. This approach is suitable for an anterior TARP internal fixation, and the design of the internal fixation system should be based on the above anatomical data.展开更多

文摘Objective:To compare the clinical therapeutic effect of bridge combined internal fixation system and locking compression plate internal fixation in the treatment of displaced midshaft clavicle fractures by emphatically observing fracture healing and shoulder joint function.Methods:Totally 44 elderly patients with Robinson type 2B displaced midshaft clavicle fractures were included from the Department of Orthopaedics,Shenyang Fourth People's Hospital during February 2016 and December 2018,including 23 males and 21 females,mean age(69.8±10.2)years old.The patients were divided into a bridge combined internal fixation system group(bridge group,n=22)and a locking compression plate internal fixation group(plate group,n=22)according to the internal fixation methods.The operation time,intraoperative blood loss,fracture healing time,and postoperative complications were recorded.At 12 months after surgery,the shoulder joint Constant-Murley score and DASH score were used to assess the recovery of joint function.The serum levels of bone turnover biochemical markers procollagen I N-terminal peptide(P1NP),cross-linked Carboxy-terminal telopeptide of typeⅠcollagen(CTX-I),and osteoblast specific factor(OSF)were measured before and 3 months after surgery.Results:The operation time,intraoperative blood loss and fracture healing time of the bridge group were significantly shorter than those of the plate group(P<0.05).Constant scores and DASH scores in the bridge group were significantly better than those of the plate group at 12 months after surgery(P<0.05).Serum levels of CTX-I was significantly decreased,while the P1NP and OSF were significantly increased compared with before surgery in the both groups(P<0.05),and the changes were more obvious in the bridge group(P<0.05).The incidence of complications was similar between the two groups(P<0.05).Conclusion:Compared with the locking plate system,the bridge combined internal fixation system can effectively improve the operation efficiency,have more benefits on fracture healing,better promote the recovery of patients'function,and reduce the failure rate of internal fixation,thus providing a better choice to treat displaced midshaft clavicle fractures by intraoperative internal fixation.
文摘Purpose: The proximal femoral nail anti-rotation (PFNA) is known to have advantages in enhancing the anchorage ability of internal fixation in elderly unstable osteoporotic intertrochanteric fracture patients. However whether it is superior to condylar blade fixation is not clear. This study aimed to determine which treatment has better clinical outcomes in older patients. Materials and Methods: A total of 86 patients over the age of 60 with unstable trochanteric fractures within the past 3 weeks, were included in this prospective study conducted from June 1, 2018, to May 31, 2021. All the intertrochanteric fractures were classified according to AO/OTA classification. Among them, 44 cases were treated with the Proximal Femoral Nail (PFNA2) with or without an augmentation screw, and 42 cases were treated with the Condylar Blade Plate. In addition, the operative time, intraoperative blood loss, intraoperative and postoperative blood transfusion, postoperative weight-bearing time, hospitalization time, Harris score of hip function, Kyle’s criteria and postoperative complications were compared between the two groups. Results: The mean duration of surgery for the PFN group was 66.8 minutes (on average), whereas for the condylar blade plate group, it was 99.30 minutes (on average). The PFNA2 group experienced less blood loss (average of 80 mL) compared to the condylar blade plate group (average of 120 mL). Union and partial weight-bearing occurred earlier in the PFNA2 group (14.1 weeks and 10.6 weeks, respectively) compared to the Condylar blade plate group (18.7 weeks and 15.8 weeks). In two patients from the PFNA2 group, screw backing out and varus collapse complications were encountered;however, these patients remained asymptomatic and did not require revision surgery. In two other patients, screw cut out and breakage of the nail at the helical screw hole leading to non-union of the proximal femur were observed during the nine-month follow-up, necessitating revision surgery with prosthetic replacement. Among the condylar blade plate group, three patients experienced complications, including blade breakage at the blade and plate junction. In two cases, the fracture united in varus, and in one case, the blade cut through, resulting in non-union of the femoral head, which required revision surgery. According to the Harris hip score and Kyle’s criteria, a good-excellent outcome was observed in 92.85% of cases in the PFNA2 group and 90.90% of cases in the condylar blade plate group. Conclusion: Both the Proximal Femoral Nail A2 and Condylar blade plate are effective implants for the treatment of unstable trochanteric fractures. The intramedullary implant promotes biological healing and allows for early ambulation with minimal complications. Similarly satisfactory restoration of anatomy and favorable radiological and functional results can be achieved with the biological fixation provided by the 95-degree condylar blade plate. However, the use of PFNA2 internal fixation technique has the advantage of less trauma in elderly patients than the 95-degree condylar blade plate.
文摘Objective: To study relevant anatomical features of the structures involved in transorai atlanto-axiai reduction plate (TARP) internal fixation through transorai approach for treating irreducible atlanto-axiai dislocation and providing anatomical basis for the clinical application of TARP. Methods: Ten fresh craniocervicai specimens were microsurgicaily dissected layer by layer through transorai approach. The stratification of the posterior pharyngeal wail, the course of the vertebral artery, anatomical relationships of the adjacent structures of the atlas and axis, and the closely relevant anatomical parameters for TARP internal fixation were measured. Results: The posterior pharyngeal wall consisted of two layers and two interspaces: the mucosa, prevertebrai fascia, retropharyngeai space, and prevertebrai space. The range from the anterior edge of the foramen magnum to C3 could be exposed by this approach. The thickness of the posterior pharyngeal wall was ( 3.6 ± 0.3 ) mm (ranging 2.9-4.3 mm) at the anterior tubercle of C1, (6.1 ±0.4) mm ( ranging 5.2-7.1 mm) at the lateral mass of C1 and (5.5±0.4) mm (ranging4.3-6.5 mm) at the central part of C2, respectively. The distance from the incisor tooth to the anterior tubercle of C1, C1 screw entry point, and C2 screw entry point was (82.5 ±7.8) mm (ranging71.4-96.2 mm), (90. 1 ±3.8) mm (ranging 82.2-96.3 mm), and (89.0±4.1) mm (ranging 81.3- 95.3 mm), respectively. The distance between the vertebral artery at the atlas and the midline was (25.2 ± 2.3) mm ( ranging 20.4-29.7 mm ) and that between the vertebral artery at the axis and the midline was ( 18.4 _ 2.6 ) mm ( ranging 13.1-23.0 mm). The allowed width of the atlas and axis for exposure was (39.4 ±2. 2) mm ( ranging 36.2-42. 7 mm ) and ( 39.0 ± 2.1 ) mm ( ranging 35.8-42.3 mm ), respectively. The distance ( a ) between the two atlas screw insertion points (center of anterior aspect of C1 lateral mass ) was ( 31.4 ± 3.3 )mm ( ranging 25.4-36.6 mm). The vertical distance (b) between the line connecting the two C1 screw entry points and that connecting the two C2 screw entry points (at the central part of the vertebrae, namely 3-4 mm lateral to the midline of C2 vertebrae) was (21.3±2.7) mm (ranging 19.4- 24.3mm), with an a/b ratio of 1.3-1.5. The screws of TARP had a lateral tilt of 12.2°± 0.4° (ranging 10.2° -14.6°at C1 and a medial tilt of 7.3°±0.3° (ranging5.1°-9.4°) at C2 relative to the coronal plane. Conclusions : An atlanto-axiai surgery through transorai approach is safe and feasible. This approach is suitable for an anterior TARP internal fixation, and the design of the internal fixation system should be based on the above anatomical data.
