Clinical observation of arthroscopy surgery on patients with meniscus injury / 中国综合临床

ABSTRACT

Objective To explore the clinical effect of arthroscopy surgery on patients with meniscus injury. Methods Eighty-six patients with meniscus injury were randomly and voluntarily divided into the control group(n=43)and observation group(n=43). The patients in the control group were given traditional half open meniscectomy,while in the observation group were given arthroscopy surgery. The operation time,time of postoperative functional activity,time of hospitalization,complications and clinical effect between the two groups were recorded and compared. Results The operation time,time of postoperative functional activity,time of hospitalization in observation group were(56. 8 ± 9. 8)min,(24. 6 ± 6. 8)d,(6. 6 ± 2. 5)d and 4. 7%,lower than that in control group((84. 6 ± 16. 5)min,(39. 2 ± 9. 4)d,(9. 9 ± 3. 2)d),and the differences were statistically significant(t=5. 428,4. 763,4. 784;P ﹤0. 05). The complications rates in observation group was 4. 7%( 2/43 ),significantly lower than that of control group( 20. 9%( 9/43 ),χ2 =5. 473,P ﹤0. 05 ). The efficient of the observation group was 93. 0%( 40/73 ),obviously higher than that of control group( 74. 4%(32/43),χ2 =5. 460,P=0. 019). Conclusion The arthroscopic assisted surgery treatment of meniscus injury can maximum limit retains the meniscus and restore the function of the knee joint. It is minimally invasive and worth popularizing in clinical application.
