ABSTRACT

Many difficult problems are encountered in the treatrnent of infected nonunion of long bone. To solve these difficult fractures, authors adopted an active approach-thorough debridement of the infected and necrotic soft tissue and bone, rigid internal fixation with autogenous cancellous bone graft and opening of the wound to ensure continuous drainage until union of the fracture. Authors treated 28 cases of infected nonunions with this method from Mar. 1980 to Feb. 1989, and the results are as follows ;1. Femur(54%) and tibia(43%) were most frequently involved sites. 2. Most of the cases(86%) were treated by rigid internal fixation and cancellous bone graft. 3. In most cases(64%), infection was controlled spontaneously by the time of bony union, but in 5 cases which showed persistent drainage, implant removal controlled the problem, and residual soft tissue and bony defect were solved by Papineau's technique or musculocutaneous flap. 4. Revision was required in 5 cases(18%) because of insercure fixation. 5. Union could be obtained in average 4.8 months, and infection could be controlled in all except 1 case.

ABSTRACT

Hyperbaric oxygen therapy (HBO), which in Korea is used chiefly for CO poisoning, can be used in many disorders in orthopaedic field through the action of increasing oxygen tension of peripheral tissue, Since June 1986, when the multiplace hyperbaric chamber was built in our hospital, we have experienced 197 cases of HBO in orthopaedic field and we are to analyze the result of treatment and suggest reasonable indications. The outline of results are as follows ;1. Crushing injuries and wounds caused or accompanied by circulatory disturbance were most frequent among the 197 cases we've experienced, and received 17.5 times of HBO on average. 2. Discernible effectiveness was found in split thickness skin graft, diabetic ulcer and Buerger's disease as compared to the control group. 3. Otalgia was the most common side effect, but not severe. 4. From the above results, it is thought that HBO has fair range of indications in orthopaedic field and is worth using as an adjuvant means to surgery.

ABSTRACT

The slipped capital femoral epiphysis is the condition in which the femoral head slips downward and backward on the femoral neck at the epiphyseal plate. The underlying cause of this disease is unknown. In general, it is believed that endocrine factors may play a part as shown in experimental work. But few endocrine abnormalities have been proved. It is rare in Korea and eight cases have been reported and only one case was associated with diabetes insipidus in hypogonadal Turner mosaicism. Authors report a case of mild, acute on chronic slipped capital femoral epiphysis in a 19 year old male with hypogonadism and diabetes insipidus. It was treated by internal fixation with three Steinmann pins and the result was good.
