ABSTRACT
Background@#Treatment of adult tibiofibular fractures, especially severely comminuted fractures, is technically challenging due to the lack of reduction markers and difficulty in restoring the alignment. Fixation of the fibula can facilitate reduction of the tibia fracture and restoration of the lower extremity alignment.@*Methods@#Between 2018-2019 we have operated on 50 patients who have lie on the same plane of tibiafibular fractures. Measures of angulation were obtained from radiographs taken immediately after the surgery, a second time 3 months later, and at 3-month follow-up. The analysis was performed with STATA.@*Results@#Fixating fractures of tibia and fibula at same level were not shown to have complications on the development of nonunion including fibular shortening, hindfoot alignment, slow process of nonunion and unstableness.@*Conclusions@#We recommend fibular fixation in all 50 distal fractures when both fractures lie on the same plane and the tibial fracture is relatively stabilized.
ABSTRACT
Purpose@#The etiology of Legg-Calve-Perthes disease (LCPD) remains unknown until today. A few studies have suggested passive smoke inhalation may be a risk factor, although the association is not confirmed and a causal relationship has not been established. Most mothers who smoke during pregnancy may continue smoking after giving a birth, it would be difficult to determine to what extent passive smoke inhalation adds to the risk of LCPD in these children. The causes of Legg-Calve-Perthes disease are largely unknown, but this pediatric disease seems to result from interruption of the blood supply to the proximal femur and is considered a vascular disease. Because maternal smoking during pregnancy influences fetal development and is associated with cardiovascular diseases in offspring, we hypothesized that this exposure and passive Tabaco smoke exposure are risk factors for Legg-Calve-Perthes disease and also investigated other markers of impaired fetal development and early-life exposures. @*Methods@#We prospectively recruited total 96 patients, among those 32 patients with LCPD as a case group and 64 patients attending the hospital for other orthopedic complaints as control group. Conditional logistic regression was used to assess the association between the exposures and risk of LCPD. @*Results@#The main risk factors for LCPD were family background, indoor use of a wood stove, having a family member who smoked indoors (passive smoke) and smoke during pregnancy. Children from the middle socioeconomic group appeared to be at a greater risk of developing LCPD. @*Conclusions@#This study provides further evidence that environmental tobacco smoke is associated with an increased risk of LCPD. Family background and exposure to wood smoke also appears to be risk factors. Maternal smoking during pregnancy and other factors indicated by impaired fetal development may be associated with an increased risk of Legg-Calvé-Perthes disease. However, it remains unclear why there are profound differences in the incidence of the disease between regions when the prevalence of smoking is comparable and why bilateral involvement is infrequent, and it needs further study.
ABSTRACT
Introduction: Last Decades, Date by date medical developments providing friendly, high-efficiency treatment equipment and services in developed countries are working toward an advanced, as our country medical services are trying to that country’s technology has been introduced. In our country every day there is only surgical care necessary to endocrine gland disorders, including most common thyroid surgery. It is open and robotic assistant endoscopic surgery in the world. But robotic assistant endoscopic surgery is too expensive and impossible in our country. Thus we chose Thunderbeat for open thyroid surgery in especially huge enlarged goiter and vascularized goiter to try prevent bleeding, recurrent laryngeal nerve palsy and post operation hematoma and other complications Thunderbeat is new generation instrument combines an advanced bipolar clamp to the existing ultrasonic cutter. Materials and Methods: M 51-years-oldwoman was admitted to Mongol Hyundae hospital because of front of neck pain, multi nodular goiter, tachycardia, sweaty and not controlling emotion. Anamnesis: She diagnosed to Thyrotoxicosis in 2005 and she took medicine last ten years but not controlling that poisoning. Status locals: Huge enlarged goiter in front of her neck Treatment plan: 1. Preoperative Preparation 2. Operation: Open total thyroidectomy 3. Medicine 4. Wound dressing 5. Observation We did operation after day of admission day, Patient is placed in a Semi erect position with a folded sheet underneath the shoulders so that the head is sharply angulated backward on the multifunctional surgical table under general anesthesia. We used thunderbeat from muscular to all procedures, dissection both thyroid gland and isthmus after Kocher skin incision and sub skin tissue dissected. There is no complication while procedure and post operation days Result: Nodular hyperplasia of thyroid gland with focci of micro adenomatous change Conclusion: Thunderbeat in use open thyroid surgery first outcomes blood loss than 30ml, no injury of recurrent laryngeal nerve and no penetration ligament of Berry while procedure, second outcomes no hematoma, painless, wound healing process faster and short time hospitalization.
