  • AN EXPERIMENTAL STUDY ON OSTEOCYTE APOPTOSIS IN STEROID INDUCED EARLY OSTEONECROSIS OF FEMORAL HEAD

    Objective To explore the significance of osteocyte apoptosis in steroidinduced osteonecrosis of the femoral head. Methods SixtyNew Zealand rabbits were divided into experimental group and control group(n=30). The experimental group was given 10 ml/kg of horse serum intravenously 2 times at 2 weeks intervals and an intraperitoneal injection of 45 ml/kg·d of methylprednisolone acetate for 3 days;the control group was given equal isotonic Na chloride. Osteocyteapoptosis was observe by means of TUNEL. Results The number of apoptosis in the experimental group(112.33‰±26.12‰) was significantly higher than that in the control(47.01‰±22.95‰) (Plt;0.01)in the 4th week. With time, osteocytes apoptosis progressively increased. In the 6thand 8th weeks, the percentage of empty osteocyte lacunae in the experimental group (17.23%±3.44%, 28.56%±3.45%) was significantly higher than that in the control group (11.29%±2.89%,11.26%±2.75%,Plt;0.05). The transmission electron microscope showed that the characteristics of osteocyte apoptosisincluded intact nuclear membrane,comdensed chromatin and increased electron dense. Conclusion Osteocytes apoptosis may play a key role in the process of steroidinduced early osteonecrosis of the femoral head.

  • Effect of Quantitative indicators of ilium height on approach of percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy treatment in patients with L5, S1 lumbar disc herniation

    ObjectiveTo identify effect of quantitative indicators of ilium height on approach of percutaneous endoscopic lumbar discectomy (PELD) treatment in patients with L5, S1 lumbar disc herniation.MethodsA retrospective study between May 2014 and March 2016 was conducted, including 100 patients with disc herniation at L5, S1, who were initially enrolled for the PELD treatment. Among them, 66 patients were successfully treated with PELD (group A), and the other 34 patients failed to perform puncture, catheterization, or microscopical operation due to the influence of iliac bone and other peripheral bone structures and treated with alternative surgical plans. By analyzing the X-ray films of lumbar vertebrae (including bilateral ilium) of the two groups before operation, the concept of ilium height rate and ilium angle rate was put forward innovatively. The ilium height rate and ilium angle rate of the two groups were measured and compared, and the diagnostic critical points of ilium height rate and ilium angle rate were determined by ROC curve analysis.ResultsThe ilium height rate was 0.61±0.09, 0.74±0.05 and the ilium angle rate was 0.66±0.08, 0.80±0.08 in groups A and B, respectively, showing significant differences between the two groups (F=69.729, P=0.000; F=65.165, P=0.000). ROC curve analysis showed that the critical point of ilium height rate was 0.71 (area under ROC curve was 0.927, P=0.000), and the critical point of ilium angle rate was 0.75 (area under ROC curve was 0.965, P=0.000).ConclusionPELD is not recommended for patients with L5, S1 intervertebral disc herniation, when the ilium height rate is greater than 0.71 and/or the ilium angle rate is greater than 0.75. Other surgical plans such as transpedicular approach, transpedicular approach, or open surgery, should be recommended to reduce the risk of surgery and the pain of patients.
