ABSTRACT
@#ObjectiveTo detect the levels of bone morphogenetic protein-2(BMP-2) mRNA in gunshot fracture healing of the rabbits.MethodsA model of primary treating gunshot fracture of the rabbit with external fixator and the real time fluorescence quantitative reverse transcription polymerase chain reaction(FQ-RT-PCR) technology with SYBR Green I were established.The levels of BMP-2 mRNA 1,2,3 and 4 weeks after operation were detected with FQ-RT-PCR respectively.ResultsIn the control group,BMP-2 mRNA of the bone tissue began to rise at the first week after fracture and the peak of mRNA expression appeared at the second week.The expression returned to normal at the forth week.In the experimental group,the BMP-2 mRNA rose more slowly that it arrived peak stage at the third week and was significantly lower in experimental group than that in control group at the same phases.ConclusionReal time FQ-RT-PCR is a good method for measuring the levels of BMP-2 mRNA during gunshot fracture healing.The mRNA expression rose more slowly and was significantly lower in gunshot fracture than in common fracture at the same phases.
ABSTRACT
[Objective]To investigate the technique and significance of arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament(ACL) reconstruction with the remaining bundle and ruptured fiber.[Method]In 47 cases of ACL rupture verified with arthroscopy,there were 15 cases of partial disruption,26 cases of complete disruption,and 6 cases of ligament flabby.ACLs were reconstructed with single bundle of autogenous quadrupled hamstring tendons under arthroscopy without remove of the remaining bundle or remnants of ACL.The femur tunnel was fixed by the RigidFix system,and the Intrafix system was used to fix the tibia tunnel.[Result]All of 47 cases were followed up for an average of 19 months(ranged from 12 to 24 months).The stabilization was strengthened after operation.Lysholm knee function score increased by 26.3 scores,from average 68.6 scores of preoperation to average 94.9 scores after operation.Lachman test was negative in 43 cases,weakly positive in 3 cases and positive in 1 case.According to Insall knee therapeutic effect evaluation criterion,38 cases achieved excellent results and 9 cases achieved good results.[Conclusion]Arthroscopic reconstruction of ACL with the remaining bundle preserving technique could facilitate revasculization and reinnervation of the reconstructed ligament and maintain stability of knee joint.
