ABSTRACT

OBJECTIVE@#To measure anatomical data of calcaneofibular ligament (CFL), relevant data of CFL attachment to provide an anatomical basis for CFL reconstruction.@*METHODS@#Twenty-seven adult ankle specimens were selected, including 11 males and 16 females, aged from 22 to 71 years old with an average of (41.6±17.2) years old;9 cases on the left side and 18 cases on the right side. The specimens reserved at least 20 cm above ankle joint and a complete foot, and exclude deformities, fractures, incomplete development and degenerative lesions. CFL was performed detailed anatomical observation, morphological parameters of CFL was measured, and coordinates of fibula side and calcaneal side of CFL in the coordinate axis were measured. The distance between fibula insertion of CFL and fibula tip, distance between calcaneal insertion of CFL and lateral calcaneal nodule, and Angle between CFL and long axis of fibula were also measured.@*RESULTS@#In these 27 specimens, CFL cases were all single bundles and the length of CFL was (32.83 ± 8.19) mm. The center point of fibula attachment in CFL was(2.87± 1.21) mm proximal with a coefficient of variation of 42.16% and (2.08±1.34) mm anteriorly with a coefficient of variation of 64.42%. The center point of calcaneal attachment region of CFL was located on coordinate axis on the distal end (15.32±5.33) mm, with a coefficient of variation of 34.79%, and the posterior part (6.38±2.15) mm, with a coefficient of variation of 33.86%. The distance between center point of fibula attachment and fibula tip was (4.81±0.82) mm. The distance between center point of calcaneal attachment area of CFL and lateral calcaneal nodules was(17.25±3.12) mm. Angle between CFL and fibula axis is (43 ±18)° .@*CONCLUSION@#According to anatomical studies, we could locate the fibula and calcaneal attachment of CFL by anatomical markers around ankle joint. However, the location of CFL attachment has a large variation, and the anatomical characteristics need to be considered in anatomical reconstruction.

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the effects of the attachment site of grafts and the tunnel angle on the function of knee joint after anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From January 2006 to May 2009, 47 patients(32 males and 15 females, ranging in age from 19 to 51 years old, with an average of 35.3 years old) were treated with single-bundle reconstruction of anterior cruciate ligament. Several indexes were measured at the latest follow-up as follow: attachment sites of graft on the femoral condyle were recorded, the femoral tunnel angles on coronal and sagittal planes were measured on postoperative X-ray films. According to the IKDC score, these patients were divided into two groups. In the first group, 38 patients were found the IKDC score more than 90 at the latest follow-up, and in the second group 9 patients were found IKDC score less than 90. By comparing the two groups, the relation of the indexes and postoperative function of knee was analyzed.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>The IKDC which was more than 90 at the latest follow-up was found in 38 patients, whose femoral attachments site of ACL was positioned at (29.73 +/- 4.31)% (ranged from 16.21% to 53.82%) from the posterior end of Blumensaat's line. IKDC which was less than 90 was found in 9 patients, whose femoral attachments site of ACL was positioned at (46.61 +/- 3.43)% (ranged from 27.18% to 72.34%). There was significant difference between the two groups (P = -0.000 7). The IKDC more than 90 at the latest follow-up was found in 38 patients,whose femoral tunnel angle on coronal plane was (49.5 +/- 4.72) degrees (ranged from 33 degrees to 67 degrees) and on sagittal plane was (31.3 +/- 5.12) degrees (ranged from 11 degrees to 45 degrees) were significantly less than those whose IKDC less than 90 at the latest follow-up on coronal plane was (67.6 +/- 3.09) degrees (ranged from 41 degrees to 81 degrees) and on sagittal plane was (41.2 +/- 5.69) degrees (ranged from 23 degrees to 56 degrees) (P = 0.000 7, P = -0.000 8).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>There is close relation between the attachment site of grafts and the tunnel angle with the function of knee, so in anterior cruciate ligament should be anatomic reconstructed with the anterior medial approach.</p>

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To study the therapeutic effects and clinical experiences of second-stage revision in postoperative infection after total hip replacement and to explore its security and validity.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>From January 2006 to March 2009, 17 hips in 17 patients (7 males and 10 females, ranging in age from 43 to 75 years, with an average of 58.5 years) were treated with second-stage revision. All the patients suffered from different degrees of hip pain. In bacilliculture of Synovial fluid or peritonsillar tissue, 11 patients showed positive results and 6 patient negative. The intraoperative periprosthetic histopathological examination showed that all the patients had acute inflammation. Eight patients had sinus communicating with prosthesis; 15 patients had increased ESR, and 15 patients had C reactive protein increased. All the patients had osteolysis, prosthesis loosening, and the performance of periosteal reaction in X-ray. All the patients were treated with second stage revision. In the first operation, thorough debridement was perfumed and the prosthesis was removed. Then the prosthesis of antibiotic--loaded acrylic cement was implanted. After giving antibiotics intravenously for 4 weeks, the antibiotics were taken orally for another six weeks. The ESR and C response protein were examined at regular time, and the second-stage revision surgery was perfumed when the ESR and C response protein were normal. The Harris score was used to evaluate therapeutic effects of second-stage revision surgery before and after treatment.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>All the patients were followed up with an average of 19.5 months, ranged from 12 to 35 months. No complications occurred. Postoperative X-ray showed prosthesis in the correct position. The Harris score increased from preoperative (39.3 +/- 5.6) to postoperative (84.4 +/- 10.3) (t = 15.86, P < 0.01).</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The second-stage revision in postoperative infection after total hip replacement has a good efficacy, safety and reliability advantages. This technology provides an alternative in postoperative infection after total hip replacement.</p>

ABSTRACT

<p><b>OBJECTIVE</b>To investigate the changes of spontaneous and cognitive behavior, and cholinergic M receptors in the brain of mice subjected to chronic mild stress (CMS), and to determine the effect of Ning Shen Ling Granule (NSL) and dehydroepiandrosterone (DHEA) on them.</p><p><b>METHODS</b>CMS model mice were established by applying stress every day for 3 consecutive weeks with 7 kinds of unforeseeable stress sources, and they were medicated for 1 week beginning at the 3rd week of modeling. The changes in behavior were determined by Morris Water Maze and spontaneous movement test, and M-receptor binding activity in cerebral cortex, hippocampus and hypothalamus were measured by radioactive ligand assay with 3H-QNB.</p><p><b>RESULTS</b>(1) The spontaneous movement in CMS model mice was significantly reduced, with the latency for searching platform in Morris Water Maze obviously prolonged (P<0.01), and these abnormal changes in behavior were improved in those treated with NSL and DHEA. (2) The binding ability of M-receptor in cerebral cortex and hippocampus of CMS mice was significantly decreased as compared with those in the control group (P<0.05), but could be restored to the normal level after intervention with NSL or DHEA.</p><p><b>CONCLUSION</b>The decline of spontaneous movement and spatial learning and memory ability could be induced in animals by chronic mild stress, and that may be related to the low activity of central cholinergic M-receptors. Both NSL and DHEA could effectively alleviate the above-mentioned changes.</p>
