ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the potential differences in efficacy of anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments(ACL &PCL)reconstruction by using arthroscopy between autologous tendon and tendon allograft.Methods A total of 144 patients with ACL or PCL fracture were assigned into two groups,namely anterior tibial muscle tendons allograft(n =82)and tendons autograft(n =63).The graft was fixed by using the Endobutton and Intrafix systems. The general information,drawer test,Lachman test,IKDC score,Lysholm score and Tegner score were compared between groups before and after surgery.The mean follow -up period was 16 months,ranged from 6 to 24 months. Results Both two groups received significant improvement after surgery and met the requirements of ligament reconstruction.However,those patients received autologous tendon had less complications,better knee stability.There were significant differences in Lachman score,ADT/PDT score,IKDC score[(83.43 ±4.37)points vs.(81.05 ± 4.41)points],Lysholm score [(90.59 ±3.43)points vs.(89.03 ±3.25 )points],and Tegner score [(7.79 ± 0.94)points vs.(7.37 ±0.90)points]between the two groups in 12 -month(χ2 =9.509,9.080,t =3.237,2.770, 2.729,all P <0.05).Conclusion The efficacy of autologous tendon is better than tendon allograft in anterior and posterior cruciate ligaments reconstruction,which should be considered has highest priority in treating patients with anterior or posterior cruciate ligaments fracture.
ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the size of access channel that may influence the intrarenal pelvic pressure during percutaneous nephrolithotomy.Methods From April 2014 to July 2015,83 patiens with unilateral renal calculus,ranged from 20 to 40mam were divided into 2 group randomly.40 cases underwent F24 channel PCNL and 43 cases underwent F16 channel PCNL.There was no statistically significant difference between the groups in preoperative variables,such as age,gender,preoperative status of infection,status of hydrpnephrosis,size and location of stone (P ＞ 0.05).We used a 6Fr ureteral catheter positioned into the renal pelvic,and the intrarenal pelvic pressure was measured by anesthesia monitor IBP channel during PCNL in different stages (entrance into the collecting system,calculi fragmentation,and termination)for all patients.Removing calculus time,postoperative hemoglobin changing,fever rate,procalcitonin abnormal rate,white blood cell counts and calculi clearance rate were recorded and compared.Results The intrarenal pelvic pressure in different stages on F24 channel and F16 channel were (7.5 ± 1.3)、(22.5± 4.3)、(14.0 ± 2.7) mmHg and (10.3 ± 1.1)、(34.6 ± 4.1)、(23.0 ± 3.6) mmHg,respectively.There was statistically significant difference between 2 groups (P ＜ 0.05).Compared with F16 channel,F24 channel had significant differences in removing calculus time [(12.8 ± 3.7) min vs.(23.3 ± 3.6) min],fever rate [17.5％ (7/40) vs.39.5％ (17/43)],procalcitonin abnormal rate [15.0％ (6/40) vs.34.9％(15/43)] and white blood cell counts abnormal rate [10.0％ (4/40) vs.27.9％ (12/43)] (P ＜ 0.05).However,no significant difference in postoperative hemoglobin changing [(11.8 ± 4.4)g/L vs.(13.7 ±4.7)g/L] and calculi clearance rate [87.5％ (35/40) vs.81.4％ (35/43)] (P ＞0.05).Conclusions Compared with F16 channel,the F24 channel PCNL maintains lower renal pelvic pressure,which is less than reflux limit,during calculi fragmentation,It might be contributed to reduce the postoperative fever rate.It can short time for removing calculi and achieve the better effect.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of atlantoaxial pedicle screw fixation plus bony fusion in treatment of traumatic upper cervical instability.Methods From October 2009 to August 2013,29 patients with traumatic upper cervical spine instability were treated with posterior atlantoaxial pedicle screws.The patients underwent autografting (n =19) and allografting (n =10) for spinal fusion.Surrcal outcomes were recorded including intraopcrativc blood loss,operation time,with or without nerve,blood vessel and spinal cord injury,wound healing and bone fusion rate.Results All operations were completed smoothly with operation time of 110 minutes (range,85-135 minutes) and blood loss of 150 ml (range,80-500 ml).At the follow-up of 10 months to 5 years (mean 18 months),bony fusion was detected for all the patients.Postoperative radiographs verified all patients were bony fusion with satisfactory cervical spine stability.No complications of reduction loss,fixation failure,and spinal cord or vertebral artery injury were observed except for 1 patient with low viruleut infection and 2 with delayed wound healing.Conclusion Single posterior atlantoaxial pedicle screw fixation provides security and reliable stability in treatment of upper cervical instability,however wound healing problems should be taken seriously.

ABSTRACT
Objective To discuss the method and efficiency of less invasive stabilization system (LISS) in treatment of comminuted tibia[ fractures. Methods A total of 14 patients with comminuted tibial fractures were treated with LISS between January 2005 and July 2006. There were 10 males and four females, at age range of 19-61 years (mean 34 years). Of all, 11 patients were with proximal fractures of tibia and three with distal ones, including six with open fractures and eight with closed ones. The period from injury to operation was 2-13 days. An observation was done on postoperative soft tissue recovery and fracture healing. Results The average period of follow-up was 9.4 months (4-16 mouths). All frac-tures were healed up after average 7.8 months (4-12 months). All incisions were healed up at one stage, with no complications on nerves, blood vessels or soft tissues. The axes of tibia were good, with sound function of knee and ankle joints. Conclusion LISS is characterized by easy operation, minor trauma, high healing rate and low complications in treatment of comminuted tibial fractures.

ABSTRACT
Objective To explore the surgical treatments through anterior and posterior approaches for anterior and posterior compression of cervical spinal cord. Methods The clinical data of 25 cases of anterior and posterior compression of cervical spinal cord from June 1999 to November 2003 were summarized retrospectively. There were 18 males and seven females with age range of 28-56 years (average 36.4 years). Of all,18 cases were with tricolumnae fractures of cervical spine caused by traffic injury,five with cervical herniation and two with malignant macrophage tumor in vertebral body and annex and vertebral lamina. Results All 25 cases underwent internal fixation decompression with I-stage combination operation of anterior and posterior approaches. Of 18 cases with tricolumnae fractures,one died and 17 recovered in various degrees. In five cases with cervical herniation,the positive sign disappeared basically. Two cases of malignant giant-cell tumor appeared metastatic carcinoma in the lungs 10 months after operation. Conclusions The I-stage combination operation of anterior and posterior approaches is an ideal way for the patients suffering from anteropsterospinal compression in cervical spinal cord. It can not only decompress completely the cervical spinal cord,stabilize the wounded cervical vertebra,but also facilitate nursing and function training and be beneficial to the recovery of spinal cord function.
