RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Twenty years ago the Dutch trauma care system was reformed by the designating 11 level one Regional trauma centres (RTCs) to organise trauma care. The RTCs set up the Dutch National Trauma Registry (DNTR) to evaluate epidemiology, patient distribution, resource use and quality of care. In this study we describe the DNTR, the incidence and main characteristics of Dutch acutely admitted trauma patients, and evaluate the value of including all acute trauma admissions compared to more stringent criteria applied by the national trauma registries of the United Kingdom and Germany. METHODS: The DNTR includes all injured patients treated at the ED within 48 hours after trauma and consecutively followed by direct admission, transfers to another hospital or death at the ED. DNTR data on admission years 2007-2018 were extracted to describe the maturation of the registry. Data from 2018 was used to describe the incidence rate and patient characteristics. Inclusion criteria of the Trauma Audit and Research (TARN) and the Deutsche Gesellschaft für Unfallchirurgie (DGU) were applied on 2018 DNTR data. RESULTS: Since its start in 2007 a total of 865,460 trauma cases have been registered in the DNTR. Hospital participation increased from 64% to 98%. In 2018, a total of 77,529 patients were included, the median age was 64 years, 50% males. Severely injured patients with an ISS≥16, accounted for 6% of all admissions, of which 70% was treated at designated RTCs. Patients with an ISS≤ 15were treated at non-RTCs in 80% of cases. Application of DGU or TARN inclusion criteria, resulted in inclusion of respectively 5% and 32% of the DNTR patients. Particularly children, elderly and patients admitted at non-RTCs are left out. Moreover, 50% of ISS≥16 and 68% of the fatal cases did not meet DGU inclusion criteria CONCLUSION: The DNTR has evolved into a comprehensive well-structured nationwide population-based trauma register. With 80,000 inclusions annually, the DNTR has become one of the largest trauma databases in Europe The registries strength lies in the broad inclusion criteria which enables studies on the burden of injury and the quality and efficiency of the entire trauma care system, encompassing all trauma-receiving hospitals.

RESUMO

PURPOSE: This study attempted to determine the clinical effectiveness of the intraoperative use of 3-dimensional fluoroscopy compared with conventional 2-dimensional fluoroscopy in patients with distal radius fractures. METHODS: We performed a multicenter randomized clinical trial in which 206 patients were randomized between the use of 3-dimensional fluoroscopy or not during operative treatment of the distal radius fracture. The primary outcome was the quality of fracture reduction and fixation assessed on a postoperative computed tomography scan with a dichotomous outcome: indication for revision, yes or no. RESULTS: There was no significant difference in whether the fracture required revision surgery: 31% (2-dimensional group) versus 24% (3-dimensional group). In 11% of distal radius fractures allocated to the 3-dimensional group, additional intraoperative corrections (screw replacements) were performed. CONCLUSIONS: Compared with 2-dimensional fluoroscopy, the use of intraoperative 3-dimensional fluoroscopy does not appear to improve the quality of reduction and fixation in the management of patients with a distal radius fracture. However, the use of 3-dimensional fluoroscopy appears to have advantages such as more intraoperative revisions and less revision surgeries that this study could not clearly demonstrate. TYPE OF STUDY/LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Diagnostic II.

RESUMO

INTRODUCTION: Stabilisation of fractures with an intramedullary nail is a widespread technique in the treatment of femoral shaft fractures in adults. To ream or not to ream is still debated. The primary objective of this study was to determine the incidence of non-union following unreamed intramedullary stabilisation of femoral fractures. Secondary objectives were intra- and postoperative complications and implant failure. METHODS: Between March 1995 and June 2005, 125 patients with 129 traumatic femoral shaft fractures were treated with as unreamed femoral nail. From this retrospective single centre study, 18 patients were excluded due to insufficient follow up data, including 1 patient who died within 2 days after severe head injury. Sixty-six patients had suffered multiple injuries. 21 fractures were open. According to the AO classification, there were 54 type A, 42 type B, and 14 type C fractures. Dynamic proximal locking was performed in 44 cases (36 type A and 8 type B fractures). RESULTS: Non-union occurred in two patients (1.9%; one type B and one type C fractures). Intra-operative complications were seen in three patients (2.8%). Postoperative in-hospital complications occurred in 29 patients (27%). Local superficial infection occurred in two patients (1.9%), there were no cases of deep infection. Implant failure occurred in three patients (2.8%): nail breakage was seen in two patients. CONCLUSION: In this study, the incidence of non-union following unreamed intramedullary nailing is low (1.9%) and comparable with the best results of reamed nailing in the literature.

RESUMO

Three patients with cholelithiasis were found to possess a duplicate gallbladder. A 48-year-old woman continued to have symptoms one year after cholecystectomy, a 69-year-old woman had symptoms even though her gallbladder had been removed 40 years before, and in a 29-year-old woman a second gallbladder was found during cholecystectomy. In all three patients, the second gallbladder was removed as well, after which they recovered. The differential diagnosis of persistent symptoms following cholecystectomy should also consider the possible presence of an accessory gallbladder.
