Bone grafting and internal fixation for treating fibrous dysplasia of the adult proximal femur A 13.case report / 中国组织工程研究

The present study retrospectively analyzed 13 patients with fibrous dysplasia of the adult proximal femur who received treatment at the Department of Orthopedics,Shenzhen Hospital,Peking University between March 2000 and June 2006.These patients comprised 6 males and 7 females,with an age of 21-35 years.Among 11 patients suffering from mild hip pain,6 presented with mild limping due to worsened pains,and 2 exhibited obvious manifestations of bone fracture.All patients underwent X-ray,CT examinations,and 3 were subjected to MRI examinations,prior to bone grafting and internal fixation.Monostotic lesion was observed in 10 patients and polystotic lesion in 3 patients,but endocrine disturbance was not observed in any patient.Nine patients suffered from lesions in the femoral neck and 4 from lesions in the femoral rotator.Curettage,autogenous and allogeneic bone grafting,and internal fixation with dynamic hip screws and proximal femoral nails were successfully performed in each patient.Internal fixation time averaged 165 minutes (range 120-210 minutes).During the early stage after surgery,weight-bearing activities were not permitted.Bone fracture healed after an average of 3 months.Eighteen to forty-eight months of follow-up demonstrated that clinical symptoms were relieved,with good hip joint function and basically normal gait.X-ray plains showed thickened cortical bone,as well as compacted ossification shadow in bone grafting region.In addition,partial bone absorption,but not recurrent clinically,was observed in 4 patients.These findings imply that thorough curettage,autogenous and allogeneic bone grafting,and internal fixation with dynamic hip screws and proximal femoral nails is a reliable method to treat fibrous dysplasia of the adult proximal femur and it can acquire satisfactory curative effects.

Experiment study on stress relaxation and creep of spinal lumbar vertebrae (T12-L5) by simulating operations of excising lumbar disc intervertebrales by the front route and by the back route / 生物医学工程学杂志

We have studied the characteristics of stress relaxation and creep on lumbar vertebrae(T12-T5) of 18 fresh corpses. We measured the stress relaxation and creep of the normal group(intact spine), the control group 1(simulating the operations by the front route) and the control group 2(simulating the operations by the back route). Then we obtained the stress, strain-time curves and data under the conditions of constant stress and strain. By using regression analysis we obtained the reduced stress relaxation and creep functions. Finally, We analyzed and discussed the effects of the operations of excising the disc intervertebrales by the front route and the back route.
