Objective To observe the effect of radiofrequency ablation technology for the treatment of infected wounds in minipigs. Methods Infected wounds of full-thickness skin defects (about 6.15 cm2/wound) were prepared in 8 6-month-old minipigs (weighing, 30-35 kg) using the method of Davis et al. The 160 wounds were randomly divided into 4 groups (n=40). Infected wounds were debrided with the radiofrequency ablation technology in group A, with the electric knife in group B, and with the scalpel in group C; no treatment was done in group D as a control. The healing rate, healing time, and tissue filling rate were observed; bacterial quantitative examination and histological examination were done at 0, 2, 7, and 14 days after operation. Results All infected wounds were successfully established after 48 hours when Staphylococcus aureus dilution were inoculated. The wounds after radiofrequency ablation technology treatment were fresh and flat with slight bleeding; the healing time of group A was significantly shorter than that of groups B, C, and D (P lt; 0.05), and the healing rate of group A was significantly higher than that of groups B, C, and D at 7 and 14 days after operation (P lt; 0.05). The tissue filling rate of group A was significantly higher than that of groups B, C, and D at 2 days after operation (P lt; 0.05); the tissue filling rates of groups A, B, and C were significantly higher than that of group D at 7 and 14 days after operation (P lt; 0.05). At 0, 2, 7, and 14 days, there were significant differences in the bacterial count per gram tissue among 4 groups (P lt; 0.05), the order from low to high was groups A, B, C, and D. The histological observation showed that the surface of wound was smooth in group A at 0 day, and group A was better than the other groups in wound healing; at 2 days, some exudates were observed in 4 groups, but it was least in group A. There was inflammatory cell infiltration in various degrees in 4 groups at 7 and 14 days; it was lightest in group A with thick epithelium and dense collagen bundles, followed by groups B and C, and it was severe in group D. Conclusion The radiofrequency ablation technology can effectively remove the necrotic tissues of infected wounds, remarkably reduce the number of bacteria, improve the healing rate, and shorten the healing time of wounds.

Objective To study the effectiveness of avascular necrosis of the femoral head treated by lesions clearance, compact bone grafting, and porous tantalum rod implantation. Methods Between March 2008 and May 2010, 14 patients (16hips) with avascular necrosis of the femoral head were treated by lesions clearance, compact bone grafting, and implantation of porous tantalum rod. Of 15 cases, 13 were male (15 hips) and 1 was female (1 hip) with a median age of 42.2 years (range, 18-73 years), including traumatic in 1 case (1 hip), alcohol ic in 4 cases (4 hips), and steroid-induced in 9 cases (11 hips); 3 hips were at Association Research Circulation Osseous (ARCO) stage I and 13 hips were at ARCO stage II. The Harris score was 51.89 ± 12.42, and the X-ray score was 31.88 ± 4.03. All the cases were diagnosed by X-ray films and MRI. The median disease duration was 2.5 years (range, 6 months to 7 years). All the patients accepted the operation of lesions clearance by slotting at the neck of femur, then, compact bone grafting, and implantation of porous tantalum rod were performed. The affected l imb could not bear weight loading at 1-3 months after operation and partly bear weight loading after 3 months of operation. Results Primary heal ing of incision was achieved in all patients and no compl ication occurred. The patients were followed up 24 months on average (range, 13-36 months). Two patients underwent total hip arthroplasty at 4 months and 2 years respectively because of even worsened pain and collapsed femoral heads; 12 patients achieved obvious pain rel ief with a survival rate 87.5%(14/16). The postoperative Harris score was 84.89 ± 17.96, showing significant difference when compared with preoperative score (t= —8.038,P=0.001). The X-ray examination showed definite ossification, increased density, regular arrangement of the trabeculae and no collapsed femoral head. The X-ray score was 32.19 ± 6.57, showing no significant difference when compared with preoperative score (t= —2.237, P=0.819). Conclusion Lesions clearance, compact bone grafting, and implantation of porous tantalum rod for avascular necrosis of the femoral head have a good short-term cl inical result.
Objective To evaluate the cl inical effectiveness and advantages of one-stage posterior debridement, bone graft, and internal fixation for thoracic tuberculosis. Methods The data were retrospectively analysed, from 21 cases of thoracic tuberculosis undergoing one-stage posterior debridement, bone graft, and internal fixation between June 2007 andNovember 2009. There were 16 males and 5 females with an average age of 42.2 years (range, 22-73 years). The average disease duration was 13.2 months (range, 7-21 months). The lesions were located at the level of T5, 6 (1 case), T6, 7 (1 case), T8, 9 (4 cases), T9, 10 (3 cases), T10, 11 (5 cases), T11, 12 (6 cases), and T9-11 (1 case). According to the Frankel grading criterion, the neurological function was rated as grade B in 2 cases, grade C in 6 cases, grade D in 10 cases, and grade E in 3 cases. The preoperative Cobb angle was (26.3 ± 9.2)°. The erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) was (35.9 ± 11.2) mm/ 1 hour. Results Thoracic tuberculosis was confirmed in postoperative pathological examination in all 21 cases. All incisions healed primarily without fistules formation. The average follow-up time for 21 patients was 16.2 months (range, 1-3 years). Bony fusion was achieved within 7-12 months (mean, 9 months) without pseudoarthrosis. No loosening and breakage of internal fixation were found, and no local recurrence occurred. The ESR decreased to (25.1 ± 8.9) mm/1 hour at 1 week postoperatively, showing significant difference when compared with preoperative value (t=5.935, P lt; 0.01); it decreased to (14.1 ± 4.6) mm/1 hour at 3 months postoperatively. According to Frankel grade, the neurological function was significantly improved at 1 year after operation (χ2=13.689, P=0.003). The average Cobb angle was (17.1 ± 4.5)° at 1 years postoperatively, showing significant difference when compared with preoperative value (t=7.476, P lt; 0.01). Conclusion One-stage posterior debridement, bone graft, and internal fixation has a good cl inical effectiveness for thoracic tuberculosis with less injury and complete focal cleaning, as well as a goodeffectiveness of spinal canal decompression and kyphosis deformity correction.
Objective To summarize the effect of one-stage anterior debridement of infection in function reconstruction of anterior and middle column for the treatment of thoracolumbar spinal tuberculosis. Methods From January 2001 to January 2007, 65 patients with thoracolumbar spinal tuberculosis were treated with one-stage anterior debridement, decompression, autogenous bone grafts and internal fixation. There were 43 males and 22 females with an average age of 40.2 years (range, 19-64 years), including 18 cases of thoracic tuberculosis (T4-10), 44 cases of thoracolumbar tuberculosis (T11-L2) and 3 cases of lumbar tuberculosis (L3-5). The disease course was 3 months to 10 years (median 10 months). One segment was involved in 7 cases, two segments in 54 cases and three segments in 4 cases. In 14 cases with spinalcord injury, there were 5 cases of grade C and 9 cases of grade D according to Frankel classification. The kyphotic Cobb angle was 20-65° (41° on average). Results The operative time was 120-210 minutes (170 minutes on average), and the blood loss was 300-1 500 mL (600 mL on average). Fifty-eight patients were followed up for 1-6 years (23 months on average). Abscess occurred in 2 cases at 40 days and 3 months, and healed after symptomatic management. The other incisions achieved heal ing by first intention. The X-ray films showed bony fusion 4-12 months (6 months on average) after operation. No tuberculosis recurred. At 12 months after operation, pain disappeared, and there were 7 cases of grade D and 7 cases of grade E according to Frankel classification. The kyphotic Cobb angle was 0-33° (24° on average), showing statistically significant difference (P lt; 0.05) when compared with preoperation. Conclusion Early reconstruction of load-bearing function and stabil ity of anterior and middle column in the treatment of spinal tuberculosis is great significant. The appl ication of one-stage anterior surgery with debridement, decompression, autogenous bone grafts and internal fixation in the operative treatment of thoracolumbar tuberculosis is safe and effective after a rigorous anti-tuberculosis treatment.
Objective To investigate the cl inical outcomes of one stage debridement and closed-suction drainage for treatment of infection after lumbar instrumentation. Methods Between June 2002 and March 2008, 12 patients with infection after lumbar instrumentation were treated with one stage debridement and closed-suction drainage, including 9 males and 3females and aging 35-68 years (48.5 years on average). The disease duration varied from 7 days to 183 days (56 days on average). The segments of internal fixation included 7 cases single segment at levels of L4, 5, 4 cases of double segments at levels of L 4, 5, L5, S1 (2 cases), and L3, 4, L4, 5 (2 cases), and 1 case of three segments at levels of L3, 4, L4, 5, L5, S1. Two patients were treated with internal fixator removal. Results The bacterial culture results of intervertebral discs were positive in 8 cases for Staphylococcus aureus and in 3 cases for Enterobacter cloacae, negative in 1 case. Primary healing of incisions were achieved in all cases. Twelve patients were followed up 18-53 months (34.7 months on average). The white blood cell count, erythrocyte sedimentation rate, and C reactive protein significantly decreased after operation, showing significant differences at 15 days after operation when compared with those before operation (P lt; 0.05). No obvious low back pain was observed. Pathological-changed vertebra-space fused. No displacement and breakage of internal fixator occurred; in 2 patients who were given internal fixator removal, no removal of the instrumentation was performed again. The X-ray films showed that the average kyphosis decreased 0.8° at 18 months after operation. At last follow-up, the visual analogue scale score was 2 ± 1, showing significant difference (P lt; 0.05) when compared with that (10 ± 2) before operation. Conclusion One stage debridement and closed-suction drainage therapy is an effective method for treating infection after lumbar instrumentation. The operation is easy and can reduce hospitalization days.
Objective To evaluate the cl inical outcomes of primary anterior focus debridement, bone autograft, and internal fixation via transperitoneal approach in treating tuberculosis of the lumbosacral junction. Methods From February 2002 to April 2007, 16 patients with tuberculosis of the lumbosacral junction underwent anterior radical debridement, autologous il iac bone graft (two pieces of il iac bone, 5 cm × 3 cm in size), and internal fixation via transperitoneal approach, including 4 males and 12 females aged 27-63 years old (average 38 years old). The course of the disease ranged from 6 to 18 months (average 10 months). All patients experienced various degrees of pain in the lumbosacral area and toxic symptoms of thetuberculosis. Nine cases were compl icated with radicular pain in the lower extremities, and 3 cases had saddle area anaesthesia. Two cases were initially diagnosed as lumbar intervertebral disc protrusion and treated accordingly. The segments involved by the tuberculosis were L5-S1 level in all cases. The average erythrocyte sedimentation rate (ESR) was 61 mm/hour. Imaging examination confirmed the diagnosis of spinal tuberculosis. All cases received four antitubercular drugs and nutrition support for nerve before operation. Operation was performed when hepatorenal function was normal, and the toxic symptom of the tuberculosis was under control or ESR was decreased. Results Operation was performed safely in all cases without injuries of abdominal viscera, major blood vessel, cauda equina nerve and ureter. All wounds healed by first intention. No recurrence of tuberculosis and formation of sinuses occurred. All cases were followed up for 12-37 months (average 21 months). No such compl ications as tuberculous peritonitis and intestinal obstruction occurred. No postoperative erectile dysfunction and retrograde ejaculation occurred in the 4 male patients. ESR was recovered to normal 3-6 months after operation, and regular X-ray and CT exams showed no displacement of grafted bone. All patients achieved bony fusion 12 months after operation without the occurrence breakage and loosening of titanium plate and screw. The radical pain in the lower extremities and the saddlearea anaesthesia disappeared. Four patients had pain in the il iac donor site, 2 patients had mild pain in the lumbosacral area, and the pain was el iminated after symptomatic treatment. The therapeutic effect was graded as excellent in 14 cases and good in 2 cases according to the therapeutic effect evaluation criteria of Chen and co-workers. Conclusion The surgical treatment of tuberculosis of the lumbosacral junction with primary anterior focus debridement, bone autograft, and internal fixation via transperitoneal approach can achieve satisfying bony fusion and reconstruct spinal stabil ity.
Objective To study the cl inical effects of modified Galveston technology in the treatment of lumbosacral tuberculosis. Methods From January 2001 to May 2008, 19 patients with lumbosacral tuberculosis were treated, including13 males and 6 females aged 21-58 years old (average 38 years old). The course of disease was 8-22 months. The tuberculosis was at the L4-S1 level in 3 cases, the L5, S1 level in 10 cases, the L5-S2 level in 5 cases, and the S1, 2 level in 1 case. Seven cases were compl icated with neural symptom of the lower l imbs, 3 cases of them were grade C and 4 cases were grade D according to the Frankel scale of nerve function. The preoperative JOA score of lower back pain was 5-22 (average 19). Six cases were compl icated with il iac abscess, 3 cases with psoas abscess, 3 cases with sacroil iac joint tuberculosis, and 2 cases with pulmonary tuberculosis. For 12 patients, the operation of modified Galveston internal fixation via the posterior approach, focus debridement via vertebral canal, and interbody fusion with autogeneous il iac bone fragment grafting was performed; for 7 cases, the operation of modified Galveston internal fixation via the posterior approach, vertebral lamina fusion with autogeneous il iac bone fragment grafting, and anterior focus debridement was performed. Results The incision of 18 cases was healed by first intention, and 1 case had sinus 3 weeks after operation and healed 3 months after operation. Nineteen patients were followed up for 12-82 months (average 21 months). There was no recurrence of the local tuberculosis, and the common toxic symptom of tuberculosis disappeared 6-12 months after operation. All the patients achieved bony fusion 4-6 months postoperatively, and 3 patients with sacroil iac joint tuberculosis achieved sacroil iac joint fusion. For those 7 patients with combinations of the neural symptomof the lower l imbs, the symptoms disappeared and their Frankel scales were improved to grade E. The JOA score of low back pain at the final follow-up was 22-29 (average 26). There was a significant difference between preoperation and postoperation (P lt; 0.05). Conclusion The modified Galveston technology is helpful to reconstruct the stabil ity of lumbosacral vertebrae, improve bony fusion rate, reduce the postoperative in-bed time.
