RESUMEN
Objective:To evaluate the various wire tension belt ventral compression wiring technologiesfor treating several types of femoral greater trochanter fractures in total hip replacement, according to the different types of greater trochanter of femur fractures.Methods:From March 2013 to June 2019, a total of 1 280 cases of primary total hip arthroplasty were completed in our hospital, 21 patients with greater trochanter fractures were identified in total hip replacement. There were 11 males and 10 females with an average age of 65.81±6.45 years (range 42-76 years). All of them were unilateral. There were 11 cases on the left and 10 cases on the right. There were 11 cases of osteoarthritis secondary to hip dysplasia, 4 cases of hip osteoarthritis, 4 cases of aseptic necrosis of femoral head and 2 cases of femoral neck fracture. Different wire tension belt ventral compression wiring technologies were used for each fracture type. Harris hip function score, Parker activity score, and visual analogue scale (VAS) score of hip pain were evaluated during follow-up. X-ray films were taken to evaluate the fracture healing, prosthesis position, loosening and dislocation.Results:Three new fracture types were proposed: A transverse fracture from the greater trochanter tip to the base (4 cases); B oblique fracture from the greater trochanter tip to the base (according to the fracture line direction, type B was further divided into types B1 (4 cases) and B2 (6 cases); and C fracture line from the greater trochanter to subtrochanteric plane (7 cases). Among the 21 patients, one died at an early stage, two were lost during follow-up, and 18 were followed up for an average of 30.7±7.6 months. In 18 patients, the mean operation time was 110.0±20.0 min, and the mean intraoperative blood loss was 356.9±115.7 ml. The patients' Harris score was 35.26±5.52 at the preoperative, 65.7±6.42 at the 3 months after operation, and 87.75±6.21 at the final follow-up. The difference was statistically significant ( F=377.23, P<0.001). The patients' Parker score was 2.17±0.98 at the preoperative, 5.94±1.11 at the 3 months after operation,and 8.01±0.77 at the final follow-up. The difference was statistically significant ( F=170.96, P<0.001). The patients' VAS score was 6.22±1.11 at the preoperative, 2.61±0.92 at the 3 months after operation, and 1.28±0.67 at the final follow-up. The difference was statistically significant ( F=139.71, P<0.001). Deep vein embolism, heterotopic ossification was noted in one and another patient, respectively. The patient with non-union refused reoperation and had a broken steel wire, lower-limb limp, and no notable pain at the 12-month follow-up examination. Radiographs of 17 patients showed good location of the femoral prosthesis and no chronic pain. Conclusion:Different types of greater trochanter fractures in total hip arthroplasty were proposed, using different wire tension belt ventral compression wiring technologies for the various types of femoral greater trochanter fractures during total hip replacement can improve clinical outcomes.
RESUMEN
Objective To compare and analyze the clinical efficacy of locking plates versus artificial joint replacement for proximal humeral complicated fractures.Methods The retrospective data of 200 cases with locking plate or artificial joint replacement for the treatment of comminuted proximal humeral fractures were collected from February 2013 to July in our hospital.Patients were divided into locking plate group (n =114) and artificial joint replacement group (n =86) according to the treatment.The pain,functional recovery,activity,anatomical position,complications and Neer score after treatment were compared between the two groups.Results In artificial joint replacement group,Neer score was excellent in 34 cases,good in 23 cases,fair in 25 cases,poor in 4 cases,and the excellent and good rate was 66.3％ (57/86).In locking plate group,Neer score was excellent in 53 cases,good in 47 cases,fair in 10 cases,poor in 4 cases,and the excellent and good rate was 87.7％ (100/114).The excellent and good rate was higher in locking plate group than in artificial joint replacement group (x2 =13.35,P＜0.001).The scores of pain,functional recovery,activity and anatomical position were (26.9 ± 8.5),(22.4 ± 7.1),(19.8 ± 5.5) and (8.0 ± 1.8) respectively in locking plate group,and (24.8±10.2),(20.2±6.7),(18.1±6.6) and (7.9±2.1) respectively in artificial joint replacement group.There were significant differences in scores of functional recovery and activity between groups (t＝ 2.22 and 1.99,P =0.014 and 0.024),while no significant differences were found in scores of pain and anatomical position (t=1.59 and 0.36,P＝0.057 and 0.359).There were 2 cases with ankylosis,1 case with malunion and 1 case with humeral head necrosis in locking plate group,and 1 case with ankylosis,1 case with wound infection,1 case with refracture and 1 case with humeral head necrosis in artificial joint replacement group after treatment.There were no significant differences in complications between groups (x2 =0.17,P=0.683).Conclusions The locking plate and artificial joint replacement are effective in the treatment of comminuted proximal humeral fractures.Compared with artificial joint replacement,the locking plate can improve the functional recovery,activity and Neer score evaluation with a low technical requirement,which is an ideal method for comminuted proximal humeral fractures.
RESUMEN
Objective To discuss the indication, surgical technique and curative effect of humeral head replacement in treatment of complex proximal humerus fracture in old patients. Methods From 2000 to 2006, 23 patients with complex proximal humerus fractures were treated with humeral head replacement and fixated with bone cement in old patients. Rehabilitation training was performed after operation.Results Of all, 19 patients were followed up for average 1.8 years, which showed no infection, nerve injury or periprosthetic fracture except for one patient with semiluxation. NEER score system was used to evaluate the function joint prosthesis. Mean NEER score was 82.1 points, including 80-89 points ( satisfactory) in 17 patients and 70-79 points (unsatisfactory) in 2, with satisfaction rate of 89%. No patient needed revision. Conclusion With strict indication, active reconstruction of rotating cuff and stable structure of the joint, planned postoperative rehabilitation training, the humeral head replacement is a good method for treating complex proximal humerus fractures in the old patients.
RESUMEN
This device is an apparatus which can remove intracranial hematoma rapidly and offer a mild damage to the brain tissue.So,with the device,the hematoma which cased by hypertensive cerebral hemorrhage can be removed effectively,and the damage caused by cerebral hemorrhage can be lighten,and the mortality can be reduced,This device is making up of overcoat tube,rotation-sucking tube,guide tube,and spray tube,which can be used for rotating broken suction and multidirection spraying washing.Used clinically to treat more than 400 patients with hypertension cerebral hemorrhage,the device can lighten space occupying effect of intracranial hematoma rapidly,and thus many patients are saved.It's indicated this device is the most effective device for removing brain hematoma at present.
