Objective:To analyze the clinic effects of arthroscopic partial trapeziectomy and suture button suspensionplasty in the treatment of first carpometacarpal joint (CMCJ) Eaton stage II/III arthrosis.Methods:A retrospective study was conducted on a total of 15 cases (16 hands) of patients including 5 males (1 bilateral) and 10 females with CMCJ stage II/III arthrosis who underwent surgical treatment at the first affiliated hospital of Shenzhen university from January 2020 to June 2022, with mean age of 56.7±6.4 years (range, 46-75 years). The duration from pain to treatment was 7.8±3.2 months (range, 4-14 months). X-ray showed narrowing of CMCJ with osteophytes and distal radial subluxation. All the patients were treated with arthroscopic partial trapeziectomy and suture button suspensionplasty. The preoperative and last postoperative follow-up radiographs, visual analogue scale (VAS), thumb's Kapandji scores, disabilies of the arm, shoulder, and hand (DASH) scores, grip and pinch strength and time to return to work were compared.Results:All cases were followed up for 19.6±6.3 months (range, 11-36 months). The postoperative X-ray showed all the CMCJs were reduced with a normal height of first metacarpal. The mean time for patients to return to their daily activities was 18.69±3.70 d and the mean time to return to work was 24.63±4.91 d. The average VAS score decreased from 6.56±1.15 preoperatively to 1.00 (0.75, 1.25). The preoperative Kapandji's score was 8.00±0.82 and the postoperative Kapandji's score was 8.00 (7.25, 9.00). The average DASH values improved from 24.06±3.19 to 4.00 (3.00, 5.00). The were significant differences except for Kapandji score ( Z=-4.905, P<0.001; Z=-0.121, P=0.905; Z=-4.846, P<0.001). The mean grip and pinch strength showed improvement from an average of 16.4 (14.13, 18.68) kg and 1.70±0.35 kg to 26.14±3.27 kg and 3.58±0.91 kg with significant difference ( Z=-4.617, P<0.001; t=-7.669, P<0.001). Conclusion:Arthroscopic partial trapeziectomy and suture button suspensionplasty is a minimally invasive surgery for the treatment of first CMCJ Eaton stage II/III arthrosis. By this technique, the patients' existing instability and pain problems can be solved.

Objective:To evaluate the clinical efficacy of modified all-arthroscopic reconstruction of medial patella femoral ligament (MPFL) for the treatment of recurrent patellar dislocation.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 38 patients (46 knees) with recurrent patellar dislocation, who were treated at First Affiliated Hospital of Shenzhen University from January 2017 to January 2020. The patients included 12 males (12 knees) and 26 females (34 knees), aged 14-40 years [(24.6±5.4)years]. All patients underwent the modified all-arthroscopic MPFL reconstruction procedure. The femoral tunnel locations were assessed by 3D-CT immediately after surgery. The MRI was performed at 6 and 12 months after operation to assess the healing morphology of the reconstructed MPFL. The Lysholm score and Kujala score were used to assess the knee function before operation, at 6 months after operation, at 12 months after operation and at the last follow-up. The time to return to sports as well as complications were observed.Results:All patients were followed up for 26-48 months [(32.4±8.6)months]. Postoperative 3D-CT examination showed that the femoral tunnels were located in the groove area of the medial epicondyle of the femur and the adductor tubercle. At 6 and 12 months after operation, MRI T2 images showed that the reconstructed MPFL had a low signal and well tensioned ligament tissue, indicating that the MPFL was healed well. The Lysholm scores at 6 and 12 months postoperatively and at the last follow-up were (81.1±12.0)points, (91.2±3.8)points, and (92.2±9.8)points, respectively, being significantly higher than the preoperative (52.4±10.6)points (all P<0.01). The Kujala scores at 6 and 12 months postoperatively and at the last follow-up were (85.4±3.9)points, (91.4±3.6)points, and (93.1±8.5)points, respectively, being significantly higher than the preoperative (55.2±6.8)points (all P<0.01). Compared with 6 months postoperatively, the Lysholm score and Kujala score were significantly improved at 12 months postoperatively and at the last follow-up (all P<0.05). All patients returned to sports, with the time to return to sports for 3-12 months [(8.7±2.3)months] after operation. One patient had poor wound healing but was healed after dressing changes. No wound infection, nerve injury, joint stiffness, patella re-dislocation or other complications occurred. Conclusion:For recurrent patellar dislocation, the modified all-arthroscopic MPFL reconstruction has advantages of accurate bone tunnel positioning, good ligament healing, good function recovery, early return to sports, and less postoperative complications.

Objective:To investigate the clinical efficacy of wrist arthroscopic transosseous footprint repair technique for treating triangular fibrocartilage complex (TFCC) injury.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted to analyze the clinical data of 56 patients with TFCC injury admitted to Shenzhen Second People′s Hospital from July 2017 to September 2020, including 38 males and 18 females, aged 17-45 years [(33.5±3.6)years]. All patients had unilateral injury. Physical examination showed instability of the distal radioulnar joint, and MRI and arthroscopy confirmed deep ligament injury of TFCC. All patients underwent repair of deep insertion of the TFCC by using wrist arthroscopic transosseous footprint. The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, wound healing and postoperative complications were recorded. The flexion and extension range of motion of the wrist, radial and ulnal deviation of the wrist, rotation range of motion of the forearm, patient related wrist evaluation (PRWE) score, modified Mayo wrist score, visual analogue scale (VAS), and percentage of grip strength between the affected side and unaffected side were compared preoperatively, at 3 months postoperatively and at 1 year postoperatively.Results:All patients were followed up for 12-18 months [(13.4±5.2)months]. The operation time was (61.3±8.9)minutes, with the intraoperative blood loss of (2.4±1.2)ml. All wounds were healed by first intension. There was no wound infection or ulnar nerve irritation symptom after operation. Four patients experienced clicking on the ulnar side of the wrist in a short period of time post-operation, with spontaneous disappearance of the symptom. At 3 months postoperatively, the radial and ulnar deviation of the wrist was decreased from (52.5±5.9)° preoperatively to (42.6±5.9)°, and rotation range of motion of the forearm was decreased from (94.9±8.4)°preoperatively to (84.6±5.9)° (all P<0.01). The flexion and extension range of motion of the wrist was (93.1±17.4)° preoperatively, with insignificant difference compared with (89.4±5.8)° at 3 months postoperatively ( P>0.05). At 1 year postoperatively, the flexion and extension range of motion of the wrist, radial and ulnar deviation range of motion of the wrist, and rotation range of motion of the forearm were significantly increased to (101.3±13.6)°, (52.4±6.6)°, and (116.4±16.4)° when compared with those at 3 months postoperatively (all P<0.01). At 3 months postoperatively, the PRWE score was increased to (17.1±3.8)points from (10.6±3.2)points preoperatively ( P<0.01), modified Mayo wrist score was decreased to (70.3±6.7) points from (78.1±12.7)points preoperatively ( P<0.01), VAS was decreased to (4.4±1.7)points from (6.2±1.5)points preoperatively ( P>0.05), and percentage of grip strength between the affected side and unaffected side was decreased to (55.7±8.7)% from (74.4±15.2)% preoperatively ( P<0.01). At 1 year postoperatively, the PRWE score was increased to (2.0±0.9)points, modified Mayo wrist score was increased to (94.8±3.3)points, VAS was decreased to (2.1±1.1)points, and percentage of grip strength between the affected side and unaffected side was increased to (93.2±8.7)% when compared with those at 3 months postoperatively (all P<0.01). Conclusion:Wrist arthroscopic transosseous footprint repair technique can effectively treat deep ligament injury of TFCC, with advantages of significantly improving postoperative joint range of motion and functional score, relieving the pain on the ulnar side of the wrist and enhancing grip strength.

Objective:To evaluate the emergency iliosacral screw fixation assisted by TiRobot for unstable posterior pelvic ring fracture.Methods:The 26 patients with unstable pelvic fracture were analyzed retrospectively who had undergone emergency iliosacral screw fixation at Department of Orthopedics & Traumatology, Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from June 2018 to December 2020. They were divided into 2 groups depending on whether orthopaedic TiRobot was used to assist screw insertion. In the observation group of 14 cases subjected to TiRobot-assisted insertion of iliosacral screws, there were 10 males and 4 females with an age of (45.9 ± 10.1) years; in the control group of 12 cases subjected to conventional manual insertion of iliosacral screws, there were 9 males and 3 females with an age of (49.2 ± 11.3) years. All the surgeries were conducted within 24 hours after injury. The 2 groups were compared in terms of screw insertion time, pin insertion, intraoperative blood loss, fluoroscopy time, postoperative screw position, fracture reduction and Harris hip score at the final follow-up.Results:The 2 groups were comparable because there was no significant difference between them in their preoperative general clinical data or follow-up time ( P>0.05). The screw insertion time [(16.1 ± 3.4) min] and fluoroscopy time [(8.1 ± 3.3) s] in the observation group were significantly shorter than those in the control group [(26.4 ± 5.4) min and (25.2 ± 7.4) s], and the pin insertions [1 (1, 2) times] and intraoperative blood loss [(10.5 ± 6.4) mL] in the former were significantly less than those in the latter [6 (3, 8) times and (24.8 ± 6.7) mL] (all P<0.05). Postoperatively, the sacroiliac screw position was excellent in 18 cases and good in 2 in the observation group while excellent in 14 cases, good in 2 and poor in 2 in the control group; the fracture reduction was excellent in 12 cases, good in one and fair in one in the observation group while excellent in 10 cases, good in one and fair in one in the control group, showing insignificant differences in the above comparisons ( P>0.05). There was no significant difference either in the Harris hip score at the final follow-up between the 2 groups ( P>0.05). Conclusion:Compared with conventional manual insertion of iliosacral screws, emergency iliosacral screw fixation assisted by TiRobot can effectively decrease surgical time and reduce operative invasion due to a higher accuracy rate of screw insertion.

Objective:Toevaluate the short-term outcomes of mere modified Stoppa approach or in addition to ilia fossa approach for acetabular fractures.Methods:From January 2016 to October 2019, 36 patients with acetabular fracture were treated at Department of Traumatology and Orthopaedics, Beijing Jishuitan Hospital. They were 28 males and 8 females with an average age of 45.2 years (from 27 to 78 years). The left side was affected in 15 cases and the right side in 21. By the Judet-Letournel classification, there were 13 anterior column fractures, 3 anterior column and wall fractures, 12 both-column fractures, 6 anterior and posterior hemitransverse fractures, and 2 T-shaped fractures.The time from injury to surgery averaged 6 days(from 2 to 12 days).All the patients were treated by open reduction and plate-screw fixation through the mere modified Stoppa approach or in addition to the ilia fossa approach.The quality of postoperative fracture reduction was evaluated according to the Matta score.The pain scores of visual analogue scale (VAS) for the patients before operation and 18 months after operation were recorded and compared. The fracture healing time, Harris hip score at the last follow-up and complications in the patients were recorded.Results:The average operation time in this cohort was 213.2 min (from 110 to 340 min). By the Matta scores, anatomical reduction was achieved in 28 cases and satisfactory reduction in 8.The 36 patients were followed up for an average of 20 months (from 18 to 25 months). Their VAS pain scores at 18 months after operation were(0.7 ± 0.6) points, significantly lower than those before operation [(6.7 ± 1.3) points] ( P<0.05). Their fracture healing time averaged 3.2 months (from 1.5 to 6.0 months). Their Harris hip scores at the last follow-up averaged 90.6 points (from 80 to 95 points), yielding 26 excellent and 10 good cases.There were no serious complications like internal fixation failure or neurovascular injury during the follow-up period. Conclusions:In the treatment of acetabular fractures, simple modified Stoppa approach or in addition to ilia fossa approach may lead to fine short-term outcomes, because fractures involving both anterior and posterior columns can be handled safely and effectively at the same time.

Objective:To analyze the clinical characters and results of the posteromedial dislocation of elbow.Methods:From January 2014 to March 2016, a retrospective observational study of 15 patients with posteromedial elbow dislocations was performed. There were twelve males and three females, the mean age was 44 years old (23-64 years old). There were fourteen complex dislocations and one simple dislocation. The signs of posteromedial dislocation included changes of carry angle and varus deformity. Dimple signs were found in 8 patients. Conservative treatment was used in two cases (one simple dislocation and one complex disclocation). Operative treatment was performed in the other 13 cases with complex dislocations, in which five were fixed by hinged external fixator due to instability. The ranges of elbow and forearm movement, visual analogue score (VAS) and Mayo elbow performance score (MEPS) were recorded before treatment and at the last visit after average 18 months (17-21 months) of follow-up.Results:Before treatment, the average arc of extension-flexion was 9.3°±1.3° (5°-15°), the average range of forearm pronation was 6.4°±1.4° (0°-10°), supination was 4.3°±1.7° (0°-10°); VAS averaged 8±0.3 scores (7-9 scores); MEPS averaged 15.7±4.3 scores (5-35 scores). At the last follow up, the average arc of extension-flexion was 105°±5.2° (90°-130°), the average range of forearm pronation was 60°±8.5° (20°-80°), supination was 76°±9.5° (20°-90°); VAS averaged 0.4±0.2 scores (0-1 score); MEPS averaged 95.7±2.3 scores (85-100 scores). Significant different was found in all index by paired t test ( P<0.001). No instability of elbow was found in physical and radiology test in all follow-up visit. Conclusion:Posteromedial dislocation of elbow is rare in clinics, closed reduction can be always successful in simple dislocations; open reduction would be necessary in the majority of complex dislocations. However, relatively satisfied clinical results could be achieved.

Objective To investigate the therapeutic effect of multidisciplinary orthogeriatric management for geriatric hip fractures. Methods The 492 consecutive patients aged 65~99 years (mean ,79.6 years)with woman 69.9% (344/492)were recruited between May 2015 and April 2016 in the retrospective study. Clinical data ,time from admission to initiation of surgery ,in-hospital mortality and mobility status of patients receiving orthogeriatric co-management were analyzed. Results The operation was performed in 434 patients(88.2% ). The 49.8% (216/434)of patients underwent surgery within 48 hours after admission. The average time between admission and operation was 66.5 hours(6~246 hours).In-hospital mortality was 0.7% (3/434).The 382 patients(88.0% )were followed up , with mean follow-up of 21.2 months(range ,16~27 months). The total mortality was 9.9% (38/382) and one-year mortality was 6.5% (25/382). The average Parker mobility score of 344 survived patients was significantly reduced from 8.4 before injury to 6.6 at final follow up(P<0.01).The 42.4% (162/382)of patients returned to their pre-injury mobility status. Re-operation was performed in 8 patients(2.1% )during follow up. Conclusions Multidisciplinary orthogeriatric management for geriatric hip fractures is effective with a low in hospital and one-year mortality ,while the mobility status is deteriorated significantly and more than half of the patients cannot return to their pre-injury mobility status.

Objective To discuss the clinical outcomes of trochanteric digastric osteotomy and surgical hip dislocation for treatment of Pipkin Ⅳ fractures. Methods We retrospectively reviewed the 12 patients with Pipkin Ⅳ fracture who had been treated by trochanteric digastric osteotomy and surgical hip dislocation from February 2012 to June 2016. They were 10 males and 2 females, with an average age of 44. 1 years ( from 24 to 63 years ) . According to the Pipkin classification for femoral head fractures, 9 fractures were type Ⅰand 3 type Ⅱ; according to Letournel-Judet classification for acetabular fractures, 10 were posterior wall fractures ( 9 belonging to the posterior superior subgroup ) and 2 transverse plus posterior wall fractures ( one involving the posterior wall belonging to the posterior superior subgroup ) . The operation time, blood loss, complications and functional results were recorded. Results The operation time averaged 165 min ( from 150 to 195 min ); the blood loss averaged 850 mL ( from 500 to 1, 200 mL ) . A spring plate was used additionally for posterior wall fracture in 7 cases. All the 12 cases obtained an average follow-up of 19 months ( from 6 to 52 months ) . Motion function was fully recovered from 6 weeks to 4 months after operation in 2 cases of preoperative incomplete sciatic nerve injury and in one case of iatrogenic incomplete sciatic nerve injury. Anatomical reduction was achieved in all femoral head fractures. According to the Matta criteria for acetabular fractures, anatomical reduction was achieved in 9 cases, good reduction in 2 and poor reduction in one. Heterotopic ossification occurred in 4 cases ( gradeⅠin one, gradeⅡin 2 and gradeⅢin one by the Brooker grading system ) . The trochanteric osteotomy was repeated in one case. No femoral head avascular necrosis was found. According to the modified Merle d'Aubigné and Postel scoring at the final follow-ups, the functional results of the affected hip were excellent in 4 cases, good in 7 and poor in one.

Objective: To determine whether 3-dimentional CT scans is able to effectively improve the detection rate of AO B3 distal radius fractures in clinics.Methods: From Jan 2013 to Jan 2014, 30 patients with distal radius fractures were retrospectively enrolled in this study, all the patients directly visited the skeletal trauma emergency department in Beijing Jishuitan Hospital post injury and all of them accepted open reduction and internal fixation of distal radius fractures at last.All the radiographic data including X ray films and 3-dimentional CT scans of these patients were collected.Two independent observers were required to make primary AO classifications for each fracture by X rays at first, then to make final AO classifications by 3-dimentional CT scans.Finally, the detection rates of CT scans and plain films for AO B3 distal radius fractures and B3.3 distal radius fractures were compared, the agreements of the two methods for diagnosing AO B3 and B3.3 fractures were calculated by Cohen''s Kappa calculations.Results: All the 30 fractures were confirmed to be AO B3 distal radius fractures intraoperatively, and 10 of them were B3.3 fractures.The results were completely consistent with the results of 3-dimensional CT scans.However, only 80%(24/30) AO B3 distal radius fractures and 60%(6/10) B3.3 distal radius fractures could be diagnosed only by X rays.The detection rate of CT scans was proved to be significantly higher than X rays for diagnosing B3 distal radius fractures(100% vs.80%,P<0.05), the detection rate of CT scans was also proved to be significantly higher than that of plain films for detecting B3.3 distal radius fractures(100% vs.60%,P<0.05).The agreement of 3-dimentional CT scans and X ray was poor for detecting both the AO B3 distal radius fracture and B3.3 distal radius fracture (kappa=0).Most importantly, in the study process, two special kinds of B3 distal radius fracture were initially found and described by us.One was named as radial B3 fracture, and the other was named as ulna B3 fracture.Conclusion: 3-dimentional CT scans can effectively improve the detection rate of B3 and B 3.3 distal radius fractures, and also help find two special kinds of B3 fractures.

Objective:To evaluate the security and efficiency of a surgical robotic assisted percutaneous screw fixation for the treatment of pelvic and acetabular fractures.Methods: In the study,12 patients with pelvic and acetabular fractures who were treated in Beijing Jishuitan Hospital from January to April in 2016 were involved in this research.The research subjects were randomly divided into two groups: the experimental group and the control group.Robotic-assisted percutaneous sacroiliac screw internal fixations were performed under the guidance of fluoroscopy navigation in the experimental group;in the control group,doctors operated manually guided by fluoroscopy.Statistical analysis was performed on the total operation time,the intraoperative fluoroscopy time,the adjustment numbers of intraoperative guide wires,the excellent rate of screw placement and the incidence of adverse events in order to evaluate the security and efficiency of a surgical robotic assisted percutaneous screw fixation for the treatment of pelvic and acetabular fractures.Results: Eleven screws were placed in 7 patients from the experimental group,while 7 screws were placed in 5 patients from the control group in total.All the screw placement positions were satisfactory according to postoperative CT images.The excellent rates of screw placement position were 100% in both groups.However,the P value was 0.016 based on the comparison between the screws' distribution in the two groups which meant that the screw distribution of the experimental group was better than that of the control group.The average fluoroscopy time needed for screw insertion was (7.36±2.63) s in the experimental group while (41.80±13.99) s in the control group (P<0.001).This suggested that the difference between the two groups had statistical significances.Intra-operative fluoroscopy time of the experimental group was significantly smaller than that of the control group.The number of the average screw adjustment was (0.36±0.48) times in the experimental group while (9.00±3.06) times in the control group (P=0.003).This suggested that the difference of the number of the guide needle adjustment between the two groups had statistical significances,and the number of the experimental group was smaller than that of the control group.The average operation time was (43.86±49.06) min in the experimental group while only (29.00±12.14) min were needed in the control group (P=0.528).This suggested that the difference between the two groups had no statistical significance.That is,the total operation time of the two groups was equal.All the screws were in satisfactory positions according to validation results of CT scans.No complications such as screw breaking out the bone cortex and entering into the knee joint cavity,wound infection occurred.Conclusion: Surgical robots are suitable for robot-assisted percutaneous screw fixation in pelvic and acetabular fractures.Robot-assisted treatment of pelvic and acetabular fractures has significant advantages over manual operations including high accuracy,small perspective radiation,safety and efficiency.

Objective To investigate the alignment of the elbow after Coonrad-Morrey (CM) total elbow arthroplasty (TEA),and to establish normal radiographic parameters correlated with prosthesis design in Chinese adults,as well as to detect whether CM prosthesis fits for Chinese.Methods Forty-two healthy volunteers were recruited and underwent radiographs of bilateral elbows in a standardized anterior-posterior (AP) fashion.Furthermore,99 AP radiographs of normal elbows and 54 AP radiographs of elbows after CM TEA were both collected from Picture Archiving and Communication System.The following radiographic parameters were measured:humerus-elbow-wrist (HEW) angle,the angle between the axis of humerus medullary cavity and the hinge axis of elbow (H-H angle),the angle between the axis of middle ulna medullary cavity and the hinge axis of elbow (MU-H angle),the angle between the axis of proximal ulna medullary cavity and the hinge axis of elbow (PU-H angle),the horizontal distance between the axis of humerus medullary cavity and the axis of proximal ulna medullary cavity (medullary translation).The differences in above parameters between normal elbows and elbows after CM TEA were compared.For normal elbows,the radiographic differences between male and female and that between right and left were analyzed,as well as the correlation with height.Results HEW angle (2.71°±8.08°) and medullary translation (1.79±3.49 mm) in patients after CM TEA were significantly less than that in normal (11.30°±7.21°,5.25±2.55 mm respectively),while H-H angle (89.92°±3.64°),MU-H angle (93.34°±6.30°) and PU-H angle (78.87°±4.79°) were significantly larger than that in normal (87.59°±5.62°,89.23°±5.66°,76.22°±4.69° respectively).The right HH angle of female was significantly larger than that in male.There were no significant difference in other parameters between male and female,and between right and left.All of the correlations between these parameters and height were not significant.Conclusion Elbow valgus decreases and forearm translates laterally after CM TEA in Chinese patients.Currently,the CM prosthesis can theoretically cause decreasing elbow valgns and lateral translation of forearm.
