RÉSUMÉ

Recently, rising curiosity on remnant preservation technique of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction, there is much interested in being and distribution of the mechanoreceptor of ACL. So, we performed histologic analyzing and mapping of sensory nerve fiber of the human ACL in this study. Total of 20 anterior cruciate ligaments were obtained from total knee replacement. Each ACL samples was divided into seven specimens; tibial insertion site, mid transitional site, femoral insertion site, and in between the sites, and total of 140 tissue samples were stained with hematoxylin-eosin and immunohistochemical, and observed with light microscope. Five hundred thirty-four fine neuroparticle structures, Ruffini corpuscles, and free nerve endings were observed in 20 ACL samples. The mean of fibers observed were 1.88, 1.71, 1.15, 1.08, 1.15, 1.55, and 1.82, respectively from tibial insertional site to femoral insertional site. With immunohistochemical stain, S-100 protein was strong positive at nerve cells, but was weak positive or negative at neurofilament. Mapping of sensory nerve distribution were done based on the results. We identified the mechanoreceptor of the human ACL using optical and immunohistochemical methods and mapped the histologic distribution of that.

RÉSUMÉ

Among the several rotenoids, amorphigenin is isolated from the leaves of Amopha Fruticosa and it is known that has anti-proliferative effects and anti-cnacer effects in many cell types. The main aim of this study was to investigate the effects of amorphigenin on osteoclast differentiation in vitro and on LPS treated inflammatory bone loss model in vivo. We show here that amorphigenin inhibited RANKL-induced osteoclast differentiation from bone marrow macrophages in a dose dependent manner without cellular toxicity. Anti-osteoclastogenic properties of amorphigenin were based on a down-regulation of c-fos and NFATc1. Amorphigenin markedly inhibited RANKL-induced p38 and NF-kappaB pathways, but other pathways were not affected. Micro-CT analysis of the femurs showed that amorphigenin protected the LPS-induced bone loss. We concluded that amorphigenin can prevent inflammation-induced bone loss. Thus we expect that amorphigenin could be a treatment option for bone erosion caused by inflammation.

RÉSUMÉ

Restless legs syndrome (RLS) is a neurogenic disorder with the patients having a sensation of discomfort and an urge to move continuously. These symptoms can get worse during night and cause sleep disturbance. These symptoms can be misdiagnosed as lower leg pain of a spinal origin and the treatment can be wrongly focused on this. This treatment for an unproven state of symptoms can place clinicians in a difficult situation. We experienced RLS associated with spondylolisthesis and spinal stenosis, and we originally misdiagnosed the patient and wrongly treated the patient operatively with spinal fusion and posterior instrumentation. After an insufficient result, we diagnosed the patient with having RLS with the help of the neurology department and rehabilitation medical department. In one other case we diagnosed a RLS patient with the help of a neurologist and the patients had arrived an our department for total knee arthroplasty and spinal root block. We report on these cases so other orthopedic surgeons will not make same mistakes.

RÉSUMÉ

Thoracic disc herniation is a rare condition in which a posterior approach, extrapleural approach, posterolateral approach, or transthoracic approach is currently used. The posterior approach is not recommended in thoracic disc herniation surgery because of the risk of spinal cord injury. The transthoracic approach makes it possible to remove the intervertebral disc and is considered a standard method. However, due to an extensive transverse skin incision, division of the latissimus dorsi muscles, and rib resection, the conventional open approaches involve a risk of complications, such as infection and post-thoracotomy pain syndrome; and a long period of rehabilitation and recovery is required. Excision of the intervertebral disc under thoracoscopic guidance can reduce the damage to the skin and muscles, but the equipment and surgical materials are expensive and a long learning curve is required. Therefore, we report a case and a new muscle splitting transthoracic approach that can be performed by incising 10 cm of skin longitudinally and preserving the serratus anterior and latissimus dorsi muscles.
