  • Comparative Study on the Effect of Reamed and Nonreamed Intramedullary Nails on Treating Open Tibial Fractures

    Objective To compare the clinical effect of reamed and nonreamed intramedullary interlocking nails on treating open tibial fractures. Methods From February 2002 to February 2004, 92 cases of open tibial fractures (86 patients) were treated with intramedullary interlocking nails. Of the 86 patients, 65 were male and 21 were female. Their age ranged from 18 to 68 years (36.5 on average). Of the 92 cases, 54 were in the reamed group and 38 in the nonreamed group. Patients moved with the support of crutch after their wounds were healed. Results All patients were followed up regularly for 6 to 24months. Infection rate in the reamed group and nonreamed group was 20.3% and 5.3% respectively, and there was significant difference between them (Plt;0.05). The averagehealing time of the fractures was 22.5 weeks in reamed group and 19 weeks in nonreamed group, and there was no significant difference between them (P>0.05). Delayed unions occurred in 8 cases and 3 cases in reamed group and nonreamed group respectively. Conclusion Compared with reamed group, nonreamed intramedullary interlocking nails have lowerinfection rate and fewer delayed unions and ununions.

  • OSTEOPROTEGRIN AND RECEPTOR ACTIVATOR OF NUCLEAR FACTOR KAPPA B LIGAND mRNAs EXPRESSION IN BMSCs OF GLUCOCORTICOID-INDUCED NECROSIS OF THE FEMORAL HEAD PATIENTS

    Objective To investigate the expression levels of osteoprotegerin (OPG) and receptor activator of nuclear factor kappa B l igand (RANKL) mRNAs in BMSCs in patients suffering glucocorticoid-induced necrosis of the femoral head (GNFH), and to discuss the relationshi p between OPG/RANKL system and GNFH. Methods The bone tissue and BMSCs of femoral head were collected from 35 patients suffering GNFH (experimental group) and from 21 patients suffering fracture of femoral neck (control group). The ratio of men to women was 4 ∶ 3 in two groups, aged 41 to 70 years (mean 55.34years in the experimental group and mean 55.33 years in the control group). The patients of experimental group received over 3 weeks’ glucocorticoid treatment or more than 1 week’s high-dose glucocorticoid therapy in recent 2 years, but patients of the control group did not receive more than 1 week’s hormone therapy. In 2 groups, the microstructure of bone tissue of femoral head was detected by HE staining. The BMSCs were isolated and cultured by adherent-wall method; the expression levels of OPG and RANKL mRNAs were examined by real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction and the ratio of OPG mRNA to RANKL mRNA was caculated. Results Bone trabeculae and bone units were replaced by interrupted bone fragments, which were surrounded by inflammation and granulation tissue and few osteocytes were seen in bone lacunae in the experimental group. In control group, bone trabeculae and bone units were made by complete lamellar bone which surrounded blood vessels and osteocytes were seen in lacunae. The expression levels of OPG mRNA in the experimental group (0.37 ± 0.12) was significantly lower than that in the control group (0.47 ± 0.13), and the levels of RANKL mRNA in the experimental group (1.12 ± 0.39) was significantly higher than that in the control group (0.84 ± 0.24), showing statistically significant difference (P lt; 0.05). The ratio of OPG mRNA to RANKL mRNA in the experimental group (0.37 ± 0.17) was significantly lower than that in the control group (0.61 ± 0.26, P lt; 0.05). Conclusion The GNFH may be related to the expression levels of OPG mRNA and RANKL mRNA in BMSCs.

  • Application of antibiotic bone cement-coated plates internal fixation for primary treating Gustilo type ⅢB tibiofibular open fracture

    ObjectiveTo explore the effectiveness of using antibiotic bone cement-coated plates internal fixation technology as a primary treatment for Gustilo type ⅢB tibiofibular open fractures. Methods The clinical data of 24 patients with Gustilo type ⅢB tibiofibular open fractures who were admitted between January 2018 and December 2021 and met the selection criteria was retrospectively analyzed. Among them, there were 18 males and 6 females, aged from 25 to 65 years with an average age of 45.8 years. There were 3 cases of proximal tibial fracture, 6 cases of middle tibial fracture, 15 cases of distal tibial fracture, and 21 cases of fibular fracture. The time from injury to emergency surgery ranged from 3 to 12 hours, with an average of 5.3 hours. All patients had soft tissue defects ranging from 10 cm×5 cm to 32 cm×15 cm. The time from injury to skin flap transplantation for wound coverage ranged from 1 to 7 days, with an average of 4.1 days, and the size of skin flap ranged from 10 cm×5 cm to 33 cm×15 cm. Ten patients had bone defects with length of 2-12 cm (mean, 7.1 cm). After emergency debridement, the tibial fracture end was fixed with antibiotic bone cement-coated plates, and the bone defect area was filled with antibiotic bone cement. Within 7 days, the wound was covered with a free flap, and the bone cement was replaced while performing definitive internal fixation of the fracture. In 10 patients with bone defect, all the bone cement was removed and the bone defect area was grafted after 7-32 weeks (mean, 11.8 weeks). The flap survival, wound healing of the affected limb, complications, and bone healing were observed after operation, and the quality of life was evaluated according to the short-form 36 health survey scale (SF-36 scale) [including physical component summary (PCS) and mental component summary (MCS) scores] at 1 month, 6 months after operation, and at last follow-up. ResultsAll 24 patients were followed up 14-38 months (mean, 21.6 months). All the affected limbs were successfully salvaged and all the transplanted flaps survived. One case had scar hyperplasia in the flap donor site, and 1 case had hypoesthesia (grade S3) of the skin around the scar. There were 2 cases of infection in the recipient area of the leg, one of which was superficial infection after primary flap transplantation and healed after debridement, and the other was sinus formation after secondary bone grafting and was debrided again 3 months later and treated with Ilizarov osteotomy, and healed 8 months later. The bone healing time of the remaining 23 patients ranged from 4 to 9 months, with an average of 6.1 months. The scores of PCS were 44.4±6.5, 68.3±8.3, 80.4±6.9, and the scores of MCS were 59.2±8.2, 79.5±7.8, 90.0±6.6 at 1 month, 6 months after operation, and at last follow-up, respectively. The differences were significant between different time points (P<0.05). ConclusionAntibiotic bone cement-coated plates internal fixation can be used in the primary treatment of Gustilo type ⅢB tibiofibular open fractures, and has the advantages of reduce the risk of infection in fracture fixation, reducing complications, and accelerating the functional recovery of patients.
