Effect of titanium plate internal fixation combined with titanium nail intermaxillary traction on jaw fractures / 中华医学美学美容杂志

Objective:To observe the difference in the effect of simple titanium plate internal fixation and titanium plate internal fixation combined with titanium nail intermaxillary traction in the treatment of jaw fractures and their impact on the oral and maxillofacial function of patients.Methods:From August 2016 to May 2021, 94 patients with jaw fractures admitted to the Department of Stomatology, Linyi Central Hospital, Shandong (supplementing the gender, age range and average age of the patients), were divided into 47 cases in the control group, and the titanium plates were used alone, combined operation group 47 cases, titanium plate internal fixation combined with intermaxillary traction with titanium nails. The changes of oral and maxillofacial function and fracture healing were measured before operation and 3 months after operation, and the perioperative indicators and postoperative complications were recorded.Results:Three months after operation, the scores of maxillofacial function, mouth function and masticatory function in the combined operation group (0.52±0.09 points, 0.67±0.12 points, 0.58±0.08 points) were significantly lower than those in the control group (1.05±0.21 points, 1.14±0.22 points, 1.02±0.21 points) ( t=15.90, 12.86, 13.42, P<0.05). The effective rate of the combined operation group was 95.74% (45/47), which was significantly higher than that of the control group (80.85%, 38/47) (χ 2=5.05, P<0.05); there was no significant difference in operation time and hospitalization time between the groups ( P>0.05), the fracture healing time in the combined surgery group (65.02±7.06) d was significantly shorter than that in the control group (82.69±10.25) d ( t=9.73, P<0.05). The postoperative complication rate of combined treatment group was 6.38% (3/47), which was significantly lower than the control group 21.28% (10/47) (χ 2=4.37, P<0.05). Conclusions:In the treatment of jaw fractures, titanium plate internal fixation combined with titanium nail intermaxillary traction treatment can significantly improve the oral and maxillofacial function of patients, promote postoperative fracture healing, improve curative effect and reduce the incidence of complications compared with simple titanium plate internal fixation.

Open reduction,bone autografting and calcaneus reconstruction internal fixatin of intra-articular fractures of the calcaneus / 中国矫形外科杂志

[Objective] To evaluate the results of open reduction with bone autografting and calcaneus reconstruction with internal fixation in treatment of intra-articular calcaneus fracture. [Methods]From January 2005 to May 2007, 17 cases/19 feet of intra-articular calcaneus fractures received treatment of reconstruction plate and bone autografting, with 15 male/18 feet, 2 female/ 2 feet. Patients’ age ranged from 19 to 67 years (mean, 37.5 years). Fracture occurred in left side in 9 cases, right in 6 cases, both sides in 2 cases. All patients received treatment of open reduction with bone autografting and calcaneus reconstruction with internal fixation.[Results]All the patients achieved bone union. One stage union was achieved in 15 feet. Poor blood-supply was found in 3 feet and bone union was achieved after systematic treatment. Wound exudation was found in 1 feet, and bone union was achieved after dressing change treatment. All patients were followed up for an average of 19.7 months (10-38 months). The average union time was 2.5 months, without infection found.X-ray and CT were used to measure Bhler angle, width and axial length, all the indexed showed significant difference (P
