RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the surgical method of LC-II screws for fragility fractures of the pelvis (FFP) in the elderly and evaluate its clinical efficacy.Methods:A retrospective analysis was performed on 45 patients with FFPs operated in our department from January 2011 to January 2022. The clinical information was as follows. The FFP classification of pelvic fracture was IIIA in 26 cases and IIIB in 19 cases. Among them, 22 cases were fixed with closed reduction and modified LC-II screws (experimental group), and 23 cases were fixed with open reduction and reconstruction plates (control group). In the experimental group, there were 6 males and 16 females. The age range was 62-90 years, with an average of 73.2±9.2 years. The FFP classification of pelvic fracture was IIIA in 12 cases and IIIB in 10 cases. In the control group, there were 8 males and 15 females. The age range was 60-87 years, with an average of 72.8±6.6 years. FFP classification of pelvic fracture was IIIA in 14 cases and IIIB in 9 cases. After admission, pelvic X-ray and CT scan were performed, and the surgery was prepared. In the experimental group, after closed reduction of the posterior ring, the modified LC-II screw was inserted below the anterior inferior iliac spine (AIIS) toward the sacroiliac joint and penetrated the sacroiliac joint. For combined anterior ring fractures, the INFIX was used for anterior ring fixation. In the control group, the posterior ring was fixed with a reconstruction plate and/or sacroiliac screw after open reduction through the lateral rectus approach (LRA). The clinical efficacy was evaluated between the experimental group and the control group.Results:All 45 patients were successfully operated and followed up for 6 months to 3 years. All the pelvic fractures healed. In the experimental group of 22 cases, the time from injury to operation was 3-9 days, with an average of 5.8±1.9 days; the operation time was 25-70 min, with an average of 42.0±12.9 min. The intraoperative bleeding was 20-40 ml, with an average of 29.1±6.7 ml. According to the X-ray reduction evaluation criteria of Matta, 7 cases were excellent, 11 cases were good and 4 cases were medium, with an excellent and good rate of 81.8%. According to rehabilitation criteria of Majeed, 10 cases were excellent, 6 cases were good and 6 cases were fair, with a total excellent and good rate of 72.7%. At the last follow-up, sacroiliac joint pain was evaluated by VAS score: 0 in 10 cases, <3 in 7 cases, and 4-6 in 5 cases. No internal fixation loosening occurred. In the control group, the time from injury to operation was 5-20 days, with an average of 9.9±3.8 days; the operation time was 50-150 min, with an average of 89.1±29.5 min; the intraoperative bleeding was 220-1 000 ml, with an average of 509.2±214.3 ml. According to the X-ray reduction evaluation criteria of Matta, 16 cases were excellent, 4 cases were good and 3 cases was medium, with an excellent and good rate of 87.0%. According to rehabilitation criteria of Majeed, 12 cases were excellent, 6 cases were good and 7 cases were fair, with a total excellent and good rate of 78.3%. At the last follow-up, sacroiliac joint pain was evaluated by VAS score: 0 in 14 cases, <3 in 6 cases, and 4-6 in 3 cases. In the control group, posterior ring plate loosening was found in 2 cases and anterior ring pubic ramus plate and screw loosening was found in 4 cases, but there was no reduction loss.Conclusion:The modified LC-II screw is theoretically feasible in the treatment of FFP. Preliminary clinical results show good safety and efficacy, providing a new idea for minimally invasive treatment of FFP.
RESUMO
Objective:To evaluate our self-designed pubic symphysis orthotic compression anatomic plate (PSOCAP) in the treatment of fractures and dislocations around the pubic symphysis.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted to analyze the 16 patients with fracture or dislocation around the pubic symphysis who had been treated by our self-designed PSOCAP at Department of Traumatic Surgery, Center for Orthopaedic Surgery, The Third Hospital Affiliated to Southern Medical University from January 2021 to June 2022. There were 8 males and 8 females with an age of (41±19) years. According to the Tile classification for pelvic fractures, there were 3 cases of type B1, 2 cases of type B3, 1 case of type C1.2, 4 cases of type C1.3, 3 cases of type C2, and 3 cases of type C3. There were 8 cases of pubic symphysis separation and 8 fractures of the pubic ramus (2 ones at Nakatani zone Ⅰ and 6 ones at Nakatani zone Ⅱ). Time from injury to surgery was 16 (11, 53) days, ranging from 4 to 348 days. The fractures or dislocations around the pubic symphysis were exposed by the modified Stoppa approach, reduced with the assistance of PSOCAP and fixated with PSOCAP; the posterior pelvic ring was reduced and fixated by corresponding surgical methods. Recorded were the surgical time, intraoperative bleeding, postoperative quality of fracture reduction, surgical complications, and functional recovery at the last follow-up concerning the pelvic anterior ring.Results:Surgery went on successfully in the 16 patients. Their surgical time was (58±15) min, ranging from 40 to 90 min, and their intraoperative bleeding 85 (63, 150) mL, ranging from 50 to 250 mL. According to the Matta scoring, the fracture reduction was evaluated as excellent in 10 cases, as good in 3 cases and as fair in 3 cases. The (10±3)-month follow-up for the 16 patients revealed complete fracture union for all after (12±2) weeks. According to the Majeed scoring at the last follow-up, the pelvic function was evaluated as excellent in 5 cases, as good in 7 cases, and as fair in 4 cases. No such postoperative complications as fracture displacement or internal fixation failure occurred.Conclusion:Owing to the biplane and integrated structure, our self-designed PSOCAP can help reduce the fractures or dislocations around the pubic symphysis to achieve anatomical reduction and strong internal fixation, leading to good clinical efficacy.
RESUMO
Objective:To establish the classification system of sacroiliac joint dislocation with ipsilateral sacral wing fracture (SJDISWF), examine its reliability and evaluate the clinical application.Methods:A multi-center retrospective case series study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 20 SJDISWF patients admitted to Third Affiliated Hospital of Southern Medical University, Honghui Hospital Affiliated to Xi′an Jiaotong University and Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 2016 to December 2019. There were 8 males and 12 females, aged from 13-58 years［(34.7±13.2)years］. Based on the direction of sacral displacement, SJDISWF was divided into 3 types. Type I: the sacroiliac joint dislocated and the ipsilateral sacral wing fracture fragment was anteriorly prolapsed; Type II: the sacroiliac joint dislocated, the ipsilateral sacral wing fracture fragment was compressed or crushed, the anterior sacral foramen may fractured; Type III: the sacroiliac joint dislocated and the ipsilateral sacral wing fracture end was inserted into the sacral canal, causing an intra-sacral canal occupation. The reliability of the classification was performed based on the assessment results of two phases in four observers at 4-week intervals. Treatments were utilized based on the types I, II, III fractures, including anterior approach for open reduction and internal fixation, closed reduction and internal fixation or posterior approach for open reduction and internal fixation respectively. Postoperative fracture healing time was recorded. Quality of fracture reduction was graded according to Matta′s criteria. Majeed functional score was recorded at postoperative 3 months, 6 months and the final follow-up. Complications were detected as well.Results:The overall Kappa value of inter-observer reliability was 0.890. The overall Kappa value of intra-observer reliability was 0.854. There were 12 patients with type I, 7 with type II and 1 with type III. All patients went through the procedure uneventfully and were followed up for 6-36 months［(20.0±8.7)months］. All patients achieved clinical healing in 8-14 weeks［(10.2±1.7)weeks］. According to the Matta′s criteria for fracture reduction, the outcome was excellent or good in 83% (10/12) for type I, 71% (5/7) for type II and 0% (0/1) for type III, with the overall excellent rate of 75%. Majeed functional score was (74.6±5.2)points at postoperative 3 months and (84.4±5.8)points at postoperative 6 months ( P<0.01). According to Majeed functional score, the outcome was excellent or good in 75% (9/12) for type I, 100% (7/7) for type II and 0% (0/1) for type III at the final follow-up, with the overall excellent rate of 80%. There were no complications such as lateral femoral cutaneous nerve or sciatic nerve injury, lower extremity deep vein thrombosis, sacroiliac joint pain, failure of internal fixation or loss of fracture reduction during the follow-up. Conclusions:The SJDISWF classification has high reliability. The classification-oriented treatment strategy has achieved a relatively satisfactory restoration and functional recovery, indicating that the classification plays a certain role in guiding treatment selection for SJDISWF.
RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the effects of finasteride combined with tamsulosin hydrochloride administered during the perioperative period on glandular microvessel density in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia.Methods:Ninety patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia who received treatment in Wenzhou Hospital of Integrated Traditional Chinese and Western Medicine from August 2017 to August 2019 were included in this study. They were randomly assigned to receive either oral tamsulosin hydrochloride alone (control group, n = 45) or oral finasteride combined with tamsulosin hydrochloride (observation group, n = 45) during the perioperative period of transurethral resection of the prostate. All patients received 6 weeks of medication. Clinical efficacy, adverse reactions, and urodynamic indexes, glandular microvessel density, International Prostatism Symptom Score, bother score, and urine color/degree of haematuria score pre- and post-treatment were compared between the two groups. Results:The maximum urinary flow rate in each group significantly increased 6 weeks after treatment compared with before treatment. The detrusor pressure and residual urine volume in each group decreased 6 weeks after treatment compared with before treatment. After 6 weeks of treatment, the maximum urinary flow rate was significantly higher in the observation group than in the control group [(15.63 ± 2.26) mL/s vs. (13.14 ± 2.23) mL/s], and residual urine volume was significantly lower in the observation group than in the control group [(29.19 ± 4.81) mL vs. (32.25 ± 5.52) mL, t = 5.26, 2.80, both P < 0.05). International Prostatism Symptom Score measured 6 weeks after treatment and urine color/degree of haematuria score measured 1 week after treatment were (12.09 ± 2.17) points and (1.51 ± 0.27) points, respectively in the observation group, which were significantly lower than those in the control group [(14.28 ± 2.22) points, (2.03 ± 0.38) points, t = 4.73, 7.48, both P < 0.05]. Factor VIII related antigen- and CD34-positive glandular microvessel density values in the observation group were (14.74 ± 3.05) counts/visual field and (19.41 ± 3.07) counts/visual field, respectively, which were significantly lower than those in the control group [(18.08 ± 3.16) counts/visual field, (22.27 ± 3.16) counts/visual field, t = 5.10, 4.35, both P < 0.05]. The incidence of postoperative hematuria was significantly lower in the observation group than in the control group [15.56% (7/45) vs. 35.56% (16/45), χ2 = 4.73, P < 0.05]. Conclusion:Compared with tamsulosin hydrochloride alone, finasteride combined with tamsulosin hydrochloride administered during the perioperative stage can greatly improve the urodynamic indexes of patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia, reduce microvessel density value, International Prostatism Symptom Score, bother score, and decrease the incidence of hematuria. The combined therapy provides a novel idea for preventing perioperative bleeding in patients with benign prostatic hyperplasia.
RESUMO
Objective:To investigate the surgical technique and the clinical effects of direct posterior approach (DPA) with the fixation of percutaneous tunnel screw and plate for acetabular posterior comminuted fractures.Methods:Thirty-six cases with acetabular posterior comminuted fractures treated by this technique from January 2016 to July 2020 were retrospectively analyzed in this study. There were 28 males and 8 female, aged 42.0±12.1 (range 19-64) years. According to Letournel-Judet classification, there were 28 cases of transverse associated with posterior wall fractures, 6 cases of posterior column with posterior wall fractures and 2 cases of T shape with posterior wall fractures. DPA was adopted in prone position. The anterior and posterior column fractures of the acetabulum were reduced under direct vision and then fixed with percutaneous tunnel screw. Further, the posterior wall fractures of the acetabulum were reduced and fixed with plate and screws. The operation duration, intraoperative blood loss, incision length, fracture union time, fracture reduction quality, postoperative complications and hip function were recorded.Results:The incision was 9.8±1.2 (range 8-12) cm. The operation duration was 102.9±21.4 (range 65-145) min. Intraoperative bleeding was 214.0±116.9 (range 100-640) ml. Postoperative X-ray and CT examinations showed perfect reduction. All the patients were followed up for 20.9±9.2 (range 10-38) months. The fracture healing time was 4.6±1.0 (range 3-6) months. There was no patient with damaged superior gluteal nerve and blood vessel. There were 2 cases of femoral head cystic changes without pain in walking, 1 case of postoperative infection and bacteremia who was cured at 1 month after debridement and anti-infection treatment, 1 case of sciatic nerve injury but recovered at 3 months after operation, and 1 case of heterotopic ossification at 3 months after surgery without affecting hip motion. According to the Matta's criteria, the reduction quality of the acetabular fracture was rated as excellent in 28 cases, good in 6 cases, fair in 2 cases. According to the modified Merle D'Aubigné and Postel scoring system, hip joint function was excellent in 24 cases, good in 10 cases and fair in 2 cases.Conclusion:DPA approach can directly reduce acetabular posterior comminuted fractures through a minimal incision. Combined with the technique of percutaneous tunnel screw, it displays great advantages of less trauma and with good clinical effects.
RESUMO
Objective:To explore the differences in clinical indicators of different pathological types of children with hematuria as the main manifestation, and to establish a BP neural network prediction model based on clinical data.Methods:The clinical data and renal pathological results of children who were referred to Children′s Hospital of Chongqing Medical University from June 2003 to December 2018 for evaluation of hematuria as the main manifestation were collected, the significant differences in these clinical indicators were analyzed, and a BP neural network model for predicting renal pathology in children with hematuria as the main manifestation was established.Results:A total of 438 cases were enrolled in this study, including 232 males and 206 females, with the onset age of (7.00±3.15) years old.According to different clinical manifestations, the children were divided into microscopic hematuria group(179 cases), gross hematuria group(81 cases), microscopic hematuria and proteinuria group (44 cases), and gross hematuria and proteinuria group(134 cases). There were significant differences in sex ratio, onset age, course of disease, inducement, Addis count of urinary red cells, 24-hour proteinuria, blood urea nitrogen, serum creatinine, serum albumin and serum IgA levels among different clinical manifestations (all P< 0.05). Pathological grouping indicated that there were significant differences in sex ratio, onset age, course of disease, family history, Addis count of urinary red cells, 24-hour proteinuria, blood urea nitrogen, serum creatinine, serum albumin, serum IgA and C 3 levels among different pathological groups (all P< 0.05). The BP neural network prediction model was then constructed based on the above indicators, and the accuracy of the prediction model was measured to be 61.19% by using the leave one out method. Conclusions:By comparing the differences of various indicators under different clinical manifestations and pathological types, a BP neural network prediction model for renal pathology in children with hematuria as the main manifestation is established.The model can accurately predict renal pathology with the help of related indicators, and provides a basis for determining the time of kidney biopsy.
