ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To measure anatomical data of calcaneofibular ligament (CFL), relevant data of CFL attachment to provide an anatomical basis for CFL reconstruction.@*METHODS@#Twenty-seven adult ankle specimens were selected, including 11 males and 16 females, aged from 22 to 71 years old with an average of (41.6±17.2) years old;9 cases on the left side and 18 cases on the right side. The specimens reserved at least 20 cm above ankle joint and a complete foot, and exclude deformities, fractures, incomplete development and degenerative lesions. CFL was performed detailed anatomical observation, morphological parameters of CFL was measured, and coordinates of fibula side and calcaneal side of CFL in the coordinate axis were measured. The distance between fibula insertion of CFL and fibula tip, distance between calcaneal insertion of CFL and lateral calcaneal nodule, and Angle between CFL and long axis of fibula were also measured.@*RESULTS@#In these 27 specimens, CFL cases were all single bundles and the length of CFL was (32.83 ± 8.19) mm. The center point of fibula attachment in CFL was(2.87± 1.21) mm proximal with a coefficient of variation of 42.16% and (2.08±1.34) mm anteriorly with a coefficient of variation of 64.42%. The center point of calcaneal attachment region of CFL was located on coordinate axis on the distal end (15.32±5.33) mm, with a coefficient of variation of 34.79%, and the posterior part (6.38±2.15) mm, with a coefficient of variation of 33.86%. The distance between center point of fibula attachment and fibula tip was (4.81±0.82) mm. The distance between center point of calcaneal attachment area of CFL and lateral calcaneal nodules was(17.25±3.12) mm. Angle between CFL and fibula axis is (43 ±18)° .@*CONCLUSION@#According to anatomical studies, we could locate the fibula and calcaneal attachment of CFL by anatomical markers around ankle joint. However, the location of CFL attachment has a large variation, and the anatomical characteristics need to be considered in anatomical reconstruction.

ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To compare the biomechanical stability of different fixation methods for anterior ring injury of unstable pelvic fractures, and to provide reference for clinical treatment.@*METHODS@#An unstable pelvic fracture model (Tile C) with one side of the sacroiliac joint dislocation and the pubic rami fracture was constructed via three-dimensional finite element analysis. Five different fixation methods were used in the front, and the rear was fixed with sacroiliac screws. The von Mises stress and strain distributions of different combinations of fixation methods were analyzed under mimicking standing conditions.@*RESULTS@#After being loaded with 500 N vertically, the maximum stress in the anterior fracture was 3.56 MPa in anterior pelvic external fixation (AEF) group, the total displacement and the vertical displacement of the Y axis at the sacroiliac joint and the fracture were not more than 1.5 mm. The maximum stress at fixation, the front of the fracture and sacroiliac joints in the anterior pelvic subcutaneous approach(APA) group and AEF, was significantly higher than anterior modified Stoppa approach(ASA) group, anterior pelvic Ilioinguinal approach (AIA) group, and canulated screw fixation(CSF) group. The total displacement and the vertical displacement of the Y axis at the sacroiliac joint and the fracture in APA group and AEF group were also greater than the other three groups.@*CONCLUSIONS@#Anterior ring injury of unstable pelvic fractures can be significantly improved after the fixation of the implants in the five combined methods. However, overall biomechanical properties of ASA, AIA and CSF group are superior to APA and AEF group.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study mechanical affect of knee joint of reasonable positioning of femoral tunnel during knee posterior cruciate ligament (PCL) double-bundle reconstruction and graft fixation after reconstruction by virtual reality interactive technology and evaluate the biomechanical response of knee after reconstruction by finite element analysis.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>Knee specimens from five fresh frozen cadavers were used. Computer simulations and biomechanical experiments were used in this study. Experiments on flexion and extension movements of the knee joint were performed on specimens of fresh human knee joint. Laser three dimensional scanning was used to record and calculate the indexes of movements. Three-dimensional models of knee joint bone structure were then reconstructed on computer with the experimental data. Simulations of flexion and extension movements were carried out on the models to show the spatial positions of femur and tibia and label the attachment sites of PCL. Ten test points in the anterior,posterior, proximal, distal at the femoral attachment area of anterior and lateral bundle (ALB) and postoperior medial bundle (PMB) were selected and the central points of tibial en attachment areat anchored. The distance btween each two points of two article surface was calculated and contacted by software of Geomagic. Model was import software Ansys, adopting the tetrahedron unit a finite element model of complex tibial and femoral was set up to simulat human walking in one leg,on this condition the the joint surface force of model under weight impact load were analyzed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The three-dimensional models could demonstrate the spatial positions of the bone structure of the knee in different flexions and extensions. The models could be used to measure the spatial distance between 2 points on the femoral and tibial planes by software Geomagic. There was significantly difference among the length changes of anterolateral bundle and posteromedial bundle at every fixed point with different flexion angles (P<0.05), so the fixed angle with different points. The length changes of anterior lateral bundle's A2, A1 and posterior medial bundle's B3, B1 points were (1.35±0.19) mm, (5.41±1.22) mm, (1.95±0.04) mm and (5.23±2.21) mm, respectively. The A2 and B3 points' length changes were the less, and that of the Al and B1 points were the more. It had no significant difference between the length changes of anterior lanteral bundle's A2 and A3 point (P=0.913>0.05). All of the maximal length changes of anterior lateral bundle's A2, A3 and postterior medial bundle's B3 points were less than 2 mm.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The models of knee joint were builded through computer technology and it can be measure the lenth of cruciate ligament with software Geomagic exactly. The femoral tunnel for the PCL double-bundle reconstruction should be located as follows: ALB at the middle point of upper edge of femoral attachment site (proximal point),while PMB at the middle point of femoral attachment site (proximal point). This model provides a satisfactory method for the evaluation of the biomechanical response of knee after cruciate ligament reconstruction.</p>

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study short-term results and clinical application of Tri-lock BPS in total hip arthoplasty.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From May 2010 to July 2011, 32 hips in 31 patients (18 males and 13 females, ranging in age from 50 to 77 years old, with an average of 60.5 years old) were treated by total hip arthroplasty with Tri-lock BPS, including 8 patients with osteonecrosis (ON), 13 patients with fresh femoral neck fracture, 10 patients with developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). The therapeutic effects were evaluated by self assessment form, preoperative and postoperative Harris hip score, radiographs, Engh score and bone in growth of femoral side described by Gruen. Based on the short-term results,its design characteristic and clinical properties were analyzed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>All the incisions healed well and there were no complications such as femoral fracture, infection, dislocation and neurovascular injuries. All the patients were followed up with an average time of 12.2 months (ranged, 10 to 14 months). All the joints had good or excellent clinical results. The Harris score increased from preoperative 38.3 +/- 4.9 to 92.5 +/- 11.2 at the latest follow-up (t = 27.53, P < 0.01). Radiographically, the positions of the prostheses were normal,the average limbs length and femoral eccentricity recovered to normal. X-ray of the hips showed that the femoral stem prosthesis was in line with good initial fixed standard. At 3 months after surgery, X-ray of the hips showed that bone in growth in Gruen II and VI of femoral side.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>Short-term results show that the design of Tri-lock BPS is more in line with human anatomy, and has the advantages in rapid recovery of hip function and retains more bone mass. It offers a newly valuable technology for the treatment of osteonecrosis, femoral neck fracture and DDH and so on.</p>

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To discuss the primary stability of the fixed interface between the cementless prosthesis and femur, and its influence on bone ingrowth and secondary stability under the roughened surface and press fit of different prostheses by finite element analysis.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>:A three-dimensional finite element module of total hip arthroplasty (THA) was developed with Mimics software. There was a collection of data when simulating hip arthroplasty. The frictional coefficient between the fixed interface was 0,0.15,0.40 and 1.00 representing the roughness of prosthesis surface. The press fit was 0, 0.01,0.05 and 0.10 mm according to the operation. The Vion Mises stress distribution and the contact pressure,friction stress and relative sliding displacement between the interface were analysed and compared when simulating the maneuver of climbing stairs.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>At a fixed press fit of 0.05 mm,the contact pressure between the interface was 230 , 231, 222 and 275 MN under four different frictional coefficient (0,0. 15,0.40 and 1.00) with little change; the relative sliding displacement was 0.529, 0.129, 0.107 and 0.087 mm with a consistent and obvious decline. As the fixed frictional coefficient was 0.40,the contact pressure between the interface were 56.0,67.7 ,60.4 and 49.6 MN under four different press fit (0, 0.01, 0.05 and 0.10 mm) with a reduction; the relative sliding displacement was 0.064,0.062,0.043 and 0.042 mm with an obvious decline, and there was a maximal friction stress when press fit of 0.01 mm.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>There is a dynamic process of the bone remodeling and bone integration between the interface after hip replacement, determining the long-term outcome. The interface clearance and the frictional coefficient are the key factors of the bone integration.</p>

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the operation techniques and clinical effects of hollow lag screws for the treatment of Hoffa fractures.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From February 2001 to May 2009, 13 patients with Hoffa fractures were treated with hollow lag screws, including 8 males and 5 females, ranging in age from 23 to 45 years, with a mean age of 34.2 years. Six patients had the fractures on the left, 7 patients on the right. According to the Letenneuer type, femur lateral condyle: type I in 3 cases, type III in 2 cases; femur medial condyle: type I in 3 cases, type II in 2 cases, type III in 3 cases. According to the type of fracture, hollow lag screws were used to treat the fracture with different approach.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>All the patients were followed up, and the duration ranged from 12 to 23 months,with a mean of 16.5 months. All the patients had no complications such as popliteal artery, tibial nerve or peroneal nerve injuries. According to Letenneur knee function score: 10 patients got an excellent result, 3 good. At the half year after operation, the X-ray showed all the fractures had bone union. There were no hollow lag screw loosening, broken or nonunion.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The clinical effect of hollow lag screw for the treatment of Hoffa fractures is satisfactory.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To explore selection and efficacy assessment for membranous urethral trauma caused by pelvic fracture.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From June 2000 to August 2010, 72 patients with membranous urethral trauma caused by pelvic fracture were selected. There were 46 males and 26 females,ranging age from 26 to 62 years (averaged 35.2 years). The time from injury to hospitalization time was 1 to 3 hours. According to Tile pelvic fracture classification, there were 8 patients with type A, 45 patients with type B, 19 patients with type C. Thirty of the 35 patients with partial rupture of posterior urethral were treated by catheterization,5 patients treated by rupture anastomosis on the stage I combined with cystostomy; 25 of the 37 patients with complete rupture of posterior urethra were treated by early realignment, and 12 patients were treated by cystostomy. Urinary incontinence, impotence and urethrostenosis were evaluated.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>All patients were followed up for 5 to 10 years (mean 7.7 years). Incidence of urethrostenosis, impotence and urinary incontinence in patients treated by cystostomy were significantly higher than rupture anastomosis on the stage I and early realignment (P < 0.05); while incidence in patients treated by catheterization was significantly lower than other groups (P < 0.05).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>For patients with partial rupture of posterior urethral, catheterization and rupture anastomosis on the stage I are preferred methods; while patients with complete rupture of posterior urethra, early realignment is a preferred method with advantages of simple operation and less complications.</p>

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the effects of the attachment site of grafts and the tunnel angle on the function of knee joint after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From January 2006 to May 2009, 47 patients(32 males and 15 females, ranging in age from 19 to 51 years old, with an average of 35.3 years old) were treated with single-bundle reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament. Several indexes were measured at the latest follow-up as follow: attachment sites of graft on the femoral condyle were recorded, the femoral tunnel angles on coronal and sagittal planes were measured on postoperative X-ray films. According to the IKDC score, these patients were divided into two groups. In the first group, 38 patients were found the IKDC score more than 90 at the latest follow-up, and in the second group 9 patients were found IKDC score less than 90. By comparing the two groups, the relation of the indexes and postoperative function of knee was analyzed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The IKDC which was more than 90 at the latest follow-up was found in 38 patients, whose femoral attachments site of ACL was positioned at (29.73 +/- 4.31)% (ranged from 16.21% to 53.82%) from the posterior end of Blumensaat's line. IKDC which was less than 90 was found in 9 patients, whose femoral attachments site of ACL was positioned at (46.61 +/- 3.43)% (ranged from 27.18% to 72.34%). There was significant difference between the two groups (P = -0.000 7). The IKDC more than 90 at the latest follow-up was found in 38 patients,whose femoral tunnel angle on coronal plane was (49.5 +/- 4.72) degrees (ranged from 33 degrees to 67 degrees) and on sagittal plane was (31.3 +/- 5.12) degrees (ranged from 11 degrees to 45 degrees) were significantly less than those whose IKDC less than 90 at the latest follow-up on coronal plane was (67.6 +/- 3.09) degrees (ranged from 41 degrees to 81 degrees) and on sagittal plane was (41.2 +/- 5.69) degrees (ranged from 23 degrees to 56 degrees) (P = 0.000 7, P = -0.000 8).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>There is close relation between the attachment site of grafts and the tunnel angle with the function of knee, so in anterior cruciate ligament should be anatomic reconstructed with the anterior medial approach.</p>

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the influence of femoral tunnel placement on the isometry of grafts in the reconstruction of posterolateral corner of the knee (PLC). Method Knee specimens from 9 frozen human cadavers were used in the study. Five points of femoral attachment sites, including the central, proximal, distal, anterior and posterior points, were selected as femoral test points for both lateral collateral ligament(LCL)and popliteus tendon(PT). The fibular/tibial attachment sites of LCL, PT and popliteofibular ligament(PFL) were connected to the corresponding 5 test points using the brass wire, respectively. Changes in distance between each pair of fibular/tibial and femoral points were measured during the passive knee flexion extension test (0°~90°). Results The maximal changes of distances between the LCL’s anterior, distal points and LCL’s fibular attachment site were not greater than 3 mm, and there was no significant difference between these two points; the maximal change of distance between the PT’s anterior point and PFL’s fibular attachment site were not greater than 3 mm. All of the maximal changes of distances between the PT’s 5 test points and tibial point of musculotendionous junction were greater than 3 mm. Conclusions Under the condition of fibular tunnels locating at center points of LCL and PFL attachment site, the femoral tunnel should be located at the anterior edge of LCL’s attachment site (anterior point) for LCL reconstruction, and at the anterior edge of PT’s attachment site (anterior point) for PFL reconstruction.
