Frequently associated injury includes a combination of hip dislocation with posterior wall of acetabulum, head of femur fracture, intertrochanteric fracture and even the most severe type of combined acetabular fracture. We report a 42-year-old man post traumatic bilateral hip injuries with irreducible posterior hip dislocation and associated isolated greater trochanteric fracture successfully managed with open reduction and fixation of greater trochanter with universal locking trochanteric stabilization plate.展开更多

The objective of the study was to compare the efficacy and safety of HA to corticosteroid injections for the treatment of the GTPS. Methods: This prospective, randomized, two-arm trial involved 47 patients with unilateral or bilateral GTPS. Patients received an intra-bursal injection of 40 mg triamcinolone acetonide plus 1mL lidocaine, or of 60 mg HA. Patients completed visual analog scales (VAS) and Likert scales to evaluate interference of pain with daily activity, recovery from pain, and treatment satisfaction. A non-inferiority analysis was also performed. Results: Mean VAS score for pain significantly decreased comparing baseline with 1, 3 and 6 months in both treatment groups. VAS score for pain on palpation was also significantly lower than baseline in both arms. No significant differences were found between groups. Analysis of Likert scales at the sixth month didn’t detect statistically significant differences between treatment groups. The non-inferiority analysis showed that the treatment with HA was non-inferior to corticosteroids. No secondary adverse effects were found among the patients of both groups during the follow-up. Conclusions: The treatment with HA has demonstrated to be non-inferior to corticosteroids after 6 months of follow-up in patients with GTPS. Therefore, the treatment with HA may be considered an effective alternative therapeutic strategy to reduce pain in patients in whom the treatment with corticosteroids, or other therapies, have been unsuccessful or contraindicated.展开更多

This study is to evaluate the results of Trochanteric Buttress Plate (TBP) combined with PFN in an unstable IT fractures for buttressing lateral wall and reinforcing fixation. Materials and Methods: We carried out a consecutive study of 32 patients of Unstable intertrochanteric fracture femur with lateral wall comminution. It was studied at Ashwini Sahakari Rugnalaya and Sanshodhan Kendra Solapur India and Government medical college Chandrapur India from April-2015 to December-2017 using innovative Trochanteric buttress plate along with PFN. Eighteen male and fourteen female in the age group of 55 to 80 years were included in the study. There were 26 cases of A3 and six cases of A2 were fixed by PFN combined with trochanteric buttress plate to augment the comminuted lateral wall. Results: The bone healing is observed in all the cases in the mean period of 12.6 weeks. Four patients developed complications, including lateral migration of neck screws (n = 2), superficial infection (n = 2). Patients were followed up for a mean of 10.6 months. At the end of follow-up the Salvati and Wilson hip function was 36 (out of 40) in 87.5% of patients [twenty eight patients]. The clinical, radiological and functional outcomes were found to be satisfactory. Conclusion: The stabilization of lateral trochanteric wall with trochanteric buttress plate restores anatomy, increases the stability of construct and prevents inherent complication of screw migration and cutout.展开更多

文摘For the treatment of an intertrochanteric fracture combined with femoral head necrosis in middle-age patients,it has been controversial whether to perform fracture reduction and fixation first then total hip replacement,or direct total hip replacement.We present a rare case of 53-year-old male patient suffered from bilateral intertrochanteric fracture caused by a road traffic injury.The patient had a history of femoral head necrosis for eight years,and the Harris score was 30.We performed total hip replacement with prolonged biologic shank prostheses for primary repair.One year after the surgery,nearly full range of motion was achieved without instability(active flexion angle of 110°,extension angle of 20°,adduction angle of 40°,abduction angle of 40°,internal rotation angle of 25°,and external rotation angle of 40°).The Harris score was 85.For the middle-aged patient with unstable intertrochanteric fractures and osteonecrosis of the femoral head,we can choose primary repair for concurrent bilateral intertrochanteric fracture and femoral head necrosis with prolonged shank biologic total hip replacement.
文摘目的:评价大转子骨骺阻滞术(greater trochanteric epiphysiodesis,GTE)治疗儿童股骨头缺血性坏死(Legg-Calve-Perthes disease,LCPD)的效果。方法:选择2013年1月至2019年6月在重庆医科大学附属儿童医院采取手术治疗的78例儿童股骨头缺血性坏死患者作为研究对象,根据术前X线是否存在大转子上移(overgrowth of the greater trochanter,OGGT)危象分为危象组与无危象组,危象组中根据术式不同分为阻滞组与未阻滞组。阻滞组给予包容手术联合大转子骨骺阻滞术治疗,共14例16髋,未阻滞组仅给予包容手术治疗,共33例33髋。无危象组共31例31髋。对以上病例进行术后随访,通过调查临床症状和影像学资料,评价手术疗效。结果:患者术后随访时间12~89个月,平均30.6个月。有危象未阻滞组大转子上移率(75.8%)较无危象组(6.5%)明显增加(P<0.001);阻滞组患儿大转子上移率(21.4%)较有危象未阻滞组(75.8%)明显降低(P=0.001)。阻滞组患、健侧大转子发育对比分析,阻滞侧平均每年大转子生长值较健侧减少约1.32 mm,差异有统计学意义(P<0.05),其中空心钉阻滞可达约1.77 mm/年。临床疗效方面,阻滞组术后优良率也高于未阻滞组。结论:大转子上移早期X线危象对大转子上移具有确切的预判意义,可作为实施大转子骨骺阻滞术的手术指征;选择性大转子骨骺阻滞术可有效抑制大转子生长,避免大转子上移的发生,联合传统包容手术,可有效提高患儿的治疗效果。
