ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND:After different metal fixation materials areimplanted into the human body, peripheral tissue inflammatory response to varying degrees wil appear in the early stage. Poor biocompatibility of the corresponding materials wil lead to prolonged duration of inflammatory reaction. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the inflammatory factor level changes and biocompatibility of cancelous bone screw fixation in treatment of unstable pelvic fractures. METHODS:A total of 61 patients with unstable pelvic fractures were randomly divided into the observation group (29cases) and the control group (32 cases). The 29 patients in the observation group underwent cancelous bone screw fixation. The 32 patients in the control group underwent conventional therapy. During 12 months of folow-up, Majeed function score and inflammatory factor level changes and adverse events were observed and compared between the two groups. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:(1) Majeed function scores were significantly higher in both groups after treatment as compared with that preoperatively (alP 0.05). (3) Adverse events: one case affected incision infection after operation in the observation group. In the control group, four patients experienced incision infection. One suffered from nonunion, and one had bone necrosis. Above patients were treated in time, and were cured, so there wereno deaths. There were significant differences in the incidence of adverse events between the 2 groups (P< 0.05). (4) The research results show that cancelous bone screw fixation for unstable pelvic fractures can obtain satisfactory clinical results, andhave good biocompatibility.
