RESUMO

The aim of this study was to compare two different techniques of performing one-level spondylodesis for thoracolumbar burst fractures using either an autologous iliac crest bone graft (ICBG) or a porous tantalum fusion implant (PTFI). In a prospective nonrandomized study, 44 patients (20 women, 24 men; average age 43.1 ± 13.2 years) suffering from severe thoracolumbar burst fractures were treated with combined anterior-posterior stabilization. An ICBG was used in 21 cases, and a PTFI was used in the other 23 cases. A two-year clinical and radiographic follow-up was carried out. There were no statistically significant differences in age, sex, localization/classification of the fracture, or visual analog scale (VAS) before injury between the two groups. All 44 patients were followed up for an average period of 533 days (range 173-1567). The sagittal spinal profile was restored by an average of 11.1° (ICBG) vs. 14.3° (PTFI) (monosegmental Cobb angle). Loss of correction until the last follow-up tended to be higher in the patients treated with ICBG than in those treated with PTFI (mean: 2.8° vs. 1.6°). Furthermore, significantly better restoration of the sagittal profile was obtained with the PTFI than with the iliac bone graft at the long-term follow-up (mean: ICBG 7.8°, PTFI 12.3°; p < 0.005). Short-segment posterior instrumentation combined with anterior one-level spondylodesis using either an ICBG or a PTFI resulted in sufficient correction of posttraumatic segmental kyphosis. PTFI might be a good alternative for autologous bone grafting and prevent donor site morbidities.

RESUMO

Operative treatment of ruptured pubic symphysis by plating is often accompanied by complications. Trans-obturator cable fixation might be a more reliable technique; however, have not yet been tested for stabilization of ruptured pubic symphysis. This study compares symphyseal trans-obturator cable fixation versus plating through biomechanical testing and evaluates safety in a cadaver experiment. APC type II injuries were generated in synthetic pelvic models and subsequently separated into three different groups. The anterior pelvic ring was fixed using a four-hole steel plate in Group A, a stainless steel cable in Group B, and a titan band in Group C. Biomechanical testing was conducted by a single-leg-stance model using a material testing machine under physiological load levels. A cadaver study was carried out to analyze the trans-obturator surgical approach. Peak-to-peak displacement, total displacement, plastic deformation and stiffness revealed a tendency for higher stability for trans-obturator cable/band fixation but no statistical difference to plating was detected. The cadaver study revealed a safe zone for cable passage with sufficient distance to the obturator canal. Trans-obturator cable fixation has the potential to become an alternative for symphyseal fixation with less complications.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Separation of the pubic symphysis with corresponding diastasis can be stabilized by symphyseal plating. OBJECTIVE: Which pelvic injuries are stabilized with symphyseal plating and what is their outcome? MATERIAL AND METHODS: A retrospective evaluation of 64 patients who underwent symphyseal plating over a period of 24 months was conducted. RESULTS: Of the patients 56 were male and 8 female with a mean age of 44 years (SD ± 17 years). The main cause of the pelvic injuries were traffic accidents. The distribution according to the AO fracture classification was 14â€¯× B1, 10â€¯× B2, 5â€¯× B3, 23â€¯× C1, 9â€¯× C2 and 3â€¯× C3 injuries. The distribution according to the Young and Burgess classification showed 9â€¯× APC I, 18â€¯× APC II, 13â€¯× APC III, 9â€¯× LC I, 3â€¯× LC II, 2â€¯× LC III and 10â€¯× VS injuries. The mean Injury Severity Score (ISS) was 32 (SD ± 17) and the mean inpatient stay was 29 days (SD ± 16 days; positive correlation p ≤ 0.001). Radiological implant loosening occurred in 52 patients. 14 patients required treatment for severe complications. The leading reason for revision surgery was implant failure (n = 8). CONCLUSION: These observations suggest that radiological signs of implant loosening are commonly observed but rarely the reason for revision surgery. Complete implant failures, however; occur mainly within the first postoperative weeks and require early revision. A timely clarification by additional X-ray imaging should be carried out if this is suspected.

RESUMO

We report on a 14 months old toddler who sustained a traumatic hemipelvectomy by being crushed between a car and a stone wall. After stabilization in the resuscitation room he was treated operatively by laparotomy, osteosynthesis of the pelvic ring, reconstruction of the both external iliac vessels and the urethra and reposition of the testicles. After 66 days he was discharged into rehabilitation. Implants were removed after eight months. 20 months after the injury, the leg was plegic, initial radiological signs of femoral head necrosis showed up but the infant was able to walk with an orthesis and a walker. Up to our knowledge, this is the youngest patient described in the literature with a survived traumatic hemipelvectomy and salvaged limb.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: To compare fixed- or variable-angle locking screws in calcaneal fracture plates using a sawbones biomechanical model. METHODS: Intra-articular calcaneal fractures were created in synthetic bones. Reduction and stabilization was performed with 3 different plates. In group A, a fixed-angle locking plate was used with screws fastened perpendicularly to the plate (3.5 LCP, DePuySynthes). In groups B and C (2.7 VA-LCP, DePuySynthes and 3.5 Aptus, Medartis, respectively), fracture fixation was performed using variable-angle locking plates. Biomechanical testing was conducted. Displacement of the subtalar articular surface, stiffness, maximum displacement, change in the angle of Gissane, and mode of failure under cyclic loading at 200 N, 600 N, and 1000 N (500 cycles each) were determined. RESULTS: No statistically significant difference of articular surface dislocation under cyclic loading was detected. The stiffness and maximum displacement did not reveal any disparity as well. The change in the angle of Gissane showed only minor displacement of the articular surface. CONCLUSION: In our study, the resistance of variable-angle locking plates against articular surface displacement was similar to fixed-angle locking screws.

RESUMO

Purpose To assess the diagnostic performance of a third-generation dual-energy computed tomographic (CT) virtual noncalcium (VNCa) technique for detection of traumatic bone marrow edema in patients with vertebral compression fractures. Materials and Methods This prospective study was approved by the institutional review board. Informed consent was obtained from all participants. Twenty-two consecutive patients with 37 morphologic vertebral fractures were studied between October 2015 and May 2016. All patients underwent dual-energy CT (90 kV and 150 kV with a tin filter) and 3-T magnetic resonance (MR) imaging. Two independent readers visually evaluated all vertebral bodies (n = 163) for the presence of abnormal bone marrow attenuation on VNCa images by using color-coded maps and performed a quantitative analysis of CT numbers on VNCa images. MR images served as the reference standard. CT numbers were subjected to receiver operating characteristic analysis to calculate cutoff values. Results In the visual analysis, VNCa images had an overall sensitivity of 64.0%, specificity of 99.3%, accuracy of 93.9%, positive predictive value of 94.1%, and negative predictive value of 93.8%. The interobserver agreement was excellent (κ = 0.85). CT numbers obtained from VNCa images were significantly different in vertebral bodies with and without edema (P < .001). Receiver operating characteristic analysis revealed an area under the curve of 0.922. A cutoff value of -47 provided sensitivity of 92.0%, specificity of 82.6%, accuracy of 84.0%, positive predictive value of 48.9%, and negative predictive value of 98.3% for the differentiation of edematous vertebral bodies. Conclusion Visual and quantitative analyses of dual-energy VNCa images showed excellent diagnostic performance for assessing traumatic bone marrow edema in vertebral compression fractures. © RSNA, 2017 Online supplemental material is available for this article.
