RESUMO
Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of the modified biplane Chevron osteotomy and autogenous osteochondral transplantation for the treatment of talar cartilage injury with bone cyst.Methods:From February 2016 to February 2019, 26 patients with talar cartilage injury and bone cyst were treated at Department of Orthopaedics, The First Affiliated Hospital to Guangxi Medical University. They were 16 males and 10 females, aged from 22 to 50 years (average, 36.2 years). According to the Hepple classification, there were 5 cases of type Ⅳ and 21 cases of type Ⅴ. The extent and range of talar cartilage injury were evaluated by arthroscopy, the modified biplane Chevron osteotomy of medial malleolus was performed to expose cartilage defects medial to the talus, unstable cartilage was removed thoroughly, sclerotic wall of the bone cyst was freshly treated, and an osteochondral column taken from the non-weight-bearing area of the ipsilateral femoral medial condyle was implanted into the injured area of talar cartilage. The clinical efficacy was evaluated by comparing the ankle-hindfoot scores of American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS), Karlsson ankle scores, visual analogue scale (VAS) and Lysholm ankle scores between preoperation and one year post-operation.Results:All the 26 patients were followed up for an average of 20.6 months (from 12 to 30 months). Follow-up did not observe any postoperative complications like incision infection, cyst recurrence or malunion, or any obvious pain or movement limitation at the donor knee joint. The AOFAS ankle-hindfoot scores were significantly increased from preoperative 64.3±3.9 to 89.5±5.1 one year postoperation, the Karlsson scores were significantly increased from preoperative 60.5±5.5 to 85.2±6.9 one year postoperation, and the VAS scores were significantly decreased from preoperative 6.2±1.1 to 1.8±0.9 one year post-operation (all P<0.05). The Lysholm ankle scores before and after operation were 94.7±1.9 and 94.1±1.8, respectively, showing no significant difference ( P>0.05). Conclusion:In the treatment of talar osteochondral injury and bone cyst, the modified biplane Chevron osteotomy of medial malleolus and autogenous transplantation of osteochondral column can effectively relieve ankle pain and improve ankle function, leading to satisfactory clinical efficacy.
RESUMO
Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of combined anteversion angle of femoral neck-acetabulam in Crowe Ⅳ developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH) with Wagner Cone total hip arthroplasty. Methods From June 2013 to February 2016,45 cases of CroweⅣDDH were treated with no femoral shortening osteotomy in THA ,including 25 females and 20 males. The outcomes of anteversion angle of femoral neck and acetabulam were measured in CT scan of hip jiont. The outcomes of abduction angle ,hip center were measured radiologically in X-ray of pelvis. Postoperative function was scored by Harris scoring system. Results The mean follow-up time of the 45 patients was(3.2 ± 0.8)years. Using loosening or revision as the end point ,the survival rate was 100%. The outcomes of preoperative anteversion angle of acetabulam,femoral neck,acetabulam-femoral neck was(27.70 ± 5.35)°,(47.76 ± 7.25)°,and(74.90 ± 8.43)° in CroweⅣgroup,and those of postoperative anteversion angle was(19.82 ± 2.41)° ,(23.35 ± 3.84)° and(44.90 ± 5.18)° ,respectively. There was significant difference between the two groups(P < 0.05). The average height of preoperative dislocation in femoral head was (5.8 ± 1.2)cm and the postoperative average displacement of femoral lesser trochanter was (3.6 ± 0.8)cm. The Harris hip score was improved from preoperative(46.66 ± 7.28)to(90.36 ± 4.72). For most patients,hip pain were significantly relieved ,range of motion of the hip was improved ,and the gait returned to normal. Femoral nerve injury occurred in 2 cases and the case recovered after 3 months respectively. Conclusions The deformity of hip and the stability and matching degree of the prosthesis was evaluated with the combined anteversion angle of femoral neck-acetabulam in CroweⅣDDH. The Wagner Cone can effectively maintain the stability of the hip joint in the non-amputated total hip replacement.
