  • Effectiveness of minimally invasive osteotomy Ilizarov technique combined with intramedullary nail for femoral lengthening

    ObjectiveTo explore the effectiveness of minimally invasive osteotomy Ilizarov technique combined with intramedullary nail for femoral lengthening.MethodsSeventy-one patients with femoral shortening deformity who met the selection criteria between January 2013 and June 2016 were randomly divided into trial group (36 cases were treated with minimally invasive osteotomy Ilizarov technique combined with intramedullary nail for femoral lengthening) and control group (35 cases were treated with simple Ilizarov technique for femoral lengthening). There was no significant difference in age, gender, causes of femoral shortening, length of femoral shortening, rate of femoral deformity between the two groups (P>0.05). The operation duration, intraoperative blood loss, lengthening rate, external fixation duration, frequency of pin tract infection, osteotomy healing time, and range of motion (ROM) of knee at 1 year after operation were recorded and compared between the two groups.ResultsThe patients of two groups were followed up 12-60 months (mean, 31 months). Pin tract infection occured in 8 cases (10 pins), including 1 case (1 pin) in the trial group and 7 cases (9 pins) in the control group. There was significant difference in the incidence of pin tract infection between the two groups (χ2=5.265, P=0.022). All patients were cured by replacing the fixation pins, changing dressing actively, application of antibiotics, and adequate postoperative care. The operation duration, intraoperative blood loss, external fixation duration, osteotomy healing time, and ROM of knee at 1 year after operation of the trial group were superior to those of the control group, showing significant differences (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the lengthening rate between the two groups (t=–1.581, P=0.153).ConclusionThe minimally invasive osteotomy Ilizarov technique combined with intramedullary nail in femoral lengthening increases the operation time, but the external fixation duration and incidence of pin tract infection are significantly reduced and the function of knee is significantly improved.

  • Modified Ilizarov hip reconstruction in treatment of adolescent hip instability

    ObjectiveTo evaluate the effectiveness of modified Ilizarov hip reconstruction in the treatment of hip instability.MethodsThe clinical data of 13 young patients with hip diseases treated with modified Ilizarov hip reconstruction between January 2010 and March 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. There were 2 males and 11 females, aged from 14 to 34 years, with an average age of 24.2 years. There were 1 case of hip dysplasia and dislocation due to spinal bifida, 3 cases of hip dysplasia after pyogenic arthritis of the hip, 2 cases of developmental dysplasiaof the hip (DDH) accompanying femoral head necrosis who rejected hip replacement, 6 cases of young DDH refused to undergo hip replacement, and 1 case of bilateral hip dysplasia with dislocation due to sputum cerebral palsy. The disease duration was 2-20 years, with an average of 8.5 years. Preoperative Trendelenburg sign was positive in 12 cases and negative in 1 case. The preoperative Harris score of hip joint was 53.5±8.9 and the unequal length of lower limbs was (46.08±15.73) mm. Postoperative Harris hip score and patients' satisfaction with effectiveness evaluated according to their self scoring were used to assess the effectiveness.ResultsAll 13 patients were followed up 1-5 years, with an average of 2.6 years. Five patients developed postoperative needle infection, which improved after dressing change; 7 patients had limited knee joint activity and improved after knee joint function training. The Trendelenburg sign was negative at 1 year after operation, and the patient’s hip pain symptoms were relieved or disappeared. The Harris hip score of patients at 1 year after operation was 84.5±6.1, which was significantly improved when compared with preoperative one (t=-10.538, P=0.000). According to Harris hip score, the effectiveness results were excellent in 4 cases, good in 5 cases, and fair in 4 cases, with an excellent and good rate of 69.2%. The unequal length of lower limbs was (15.38±7.27) mm, which was significantly better than that before operation (t=11.826, P=0.000). At last follow-up, the patients' satisfaction score was 80%-95%, with an average of 88%.ConclusionModified Ilizarov hip reconstruction can be used to treat young patients with hip disease who are unsuitable or refuse to undergo artificial hip replacement. Its effectiveness is reliable, and it has unique advantages in limb limp improvement and limb shortening correction.
