Because of the complicated causes and variable clinical signs, closed injury of tendons at wrist is difficult to diagnosis and treat. Twenty-six cases of tendon ruptur were reported. Among them, 11 cases were caused by bone fracture or dislocation, 8 cases were caused by rheumatoid synovitis, 5 cases were caused by synovial tuberculosis, and 2 cases caused by other. The pathogenesis and clinical signs were analyzed. Twenty-three cases were treated by tendon transfer and 3 cases were treated by tendon transplantation. By average follow-up of 16 months (ranged 6 months to 4 years), the results were as follows: the clip strength and both active and positive motion of fingers were restored in 19 caese, 75% of those were restored in 7 cases and 50% of those were restored in 2 cases. It was suggested that diagnosis, treatment and function rehabilitation should be carried out early, and tendon transfer or tendon transplatation were the method on priority.
Objective To evaluate the role of CT in diagnosis of the gastrointestinal tract rupture after blunt abdominal trauma. MethodsTwenty preoperative CT scans and clinical data were obtained in 20 patients who subsequently had bowel ruptures verified surgically. CT findings were analyzed retrospectively in these patients. Retrospective interpretation was made by consensus of at least two radiologists. ResultsTwenty cases of CT scan showed intraperitoneal fluid (18 cases), pneumoperitoneum (18 cases), extravasations of gastrointestinal tract contents (2 cases), bowel wall findings (14 cases) and mesenteric injury (15 cases). Conclusion CT is fast, sensitive and noninvasive in diagnosis of the gastrointestinal tract rupture after blunt abdominal trauma.
Objective To compare the effectiveness of the 3 methods (traditional open Achilles tendon anastomosis, minimally invasive percutaneous Achilles tendon anastomosis, and Achilles tendon anastomosis limited incision) for acuteAchilles tendon rupture so as to provide a reference for the choice of cl inical treatment plans. Methods Between December 2007 and March 2010, 69 cases of acute Achilles tendon rupture were treated by traditional open Achilles tendon anastomosis (traditional group, n=23), by minimally invasive percutaneous Achilles tendon anastomosis (minimally invasive group, n=23), and by Achilles tendon anastomosis l imited incision (l imited incision group,n=23). There was no significant difference in gender, age, mechanism of injury, and American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot score between 3 groups (P gt; 0.05). Results Minimally invasive group and limited incision group were significantly better than traditional group in hospital ization days and blood loss (P lt; 0.01). Incision infection occurred in 2 cases of traditional group, and healing of incision by first intention was achieved in all patients of the other 2 groups, showing significant difference in the complication rate (P lt; 0.05). Re-rupture of Achilles tendon occurred in 1 case (4.3%) of minimally invasive group and limited incision group respectively; no re-rupture was found in traditional group (0), showing significant difference when compared with the other 2 groups (P lt; 0.05). All cases were followed up 12-18 months with an average of 14.9 months. The function of the joint was restored. The AOFAS score was more than 90 points in 3 groups at 12 months after operation, showing no significant difference among 3 groups (P gt; 0.05). Conclusion The above 3 procedures can be used to treat acute Achilles tendon rupture. However, minimally invasive percutaneous Achilles tendon anastomosis and Achilles tendon anastomosis limited incision have the advantages of less invasion, good heal ing, short hospital ization days, and less postoperative complication, and have the disadvantage of increased risk for re-rupture of Achilles tendon after operations.
Objective To assess the effectiveness of a novel minimally invasive Achilles tendon suture instrument in the treatment of fresh closed Achilles tendon rupture. Methods A retrospective study was conducted on 150 patients who underwent surgical intervention for fresh closed Achilles tendon rupture. Eighty patients were treated with the novel minimally invasive Achilles tendon suture instrument (minimally invasive group) and 70 patients with traditional open surgery (traditional group). The two groups were comparable in terms of gender, age, injured side, cause of injury, the interval between injury and operation, and the distance from the fracture end to the calcaneal tuberosity (P>0.05). The operation time, intraoperative blood loss, incision length, hospital stays, hospitalization expenses, and complications were recorded and compared. At 1 year after operation, the ankle joint function was evaluated by the American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) ankle-hindfoot score. Results The minimally invasive group demonstrated significantly shorter operation time, smaller incision length, and lower intraoperative blood loss when compared with the traditional group (P<0.05). However, there was no significant difference in terms of hospital stays and hospitalization expenses between the two groups (P>0.05). All patients were followed up 12-24 months after operation (mean, 15.5 months). In the traditional group, 6 cases of incision necrosis and 7 cases of Achilles tendon adhesion occurred, while in the minimally invasive group, all incisions healed at first intention and no Achilles tendon adhesion occurred. The differences in the incidences of the two complications between the two groups were significant (P<0.05). At 1 year after operation, the AOFAS ankle-hindfoot score in the minimally invasive group was superior to that of the traditional group (P<0.05). Conclusion In comparison with traditional open surgery, the use of self-designed novel minimally invasive Achilles tendon suture instrument proves to be an ideal technique for treating fresh closed Achilles tendon ruptures. This approach offers the benefits of smaller incisions, fewer complications, and better postoperative functional recovery, without increasing hospital costs.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the short-term effectiveness of the short incision and non-end-to-end suturing system in the treatment of acute closed Achilles tendon rupture. MethodsBetween September 2011 and September 2013, 22 patients with acute Achilles tendon rupture were treated with self-designed minimally invasive non-end-to-end suturing system. There were 16 males and 6 females, aged from 22 to 55 years (mean, 32.6 years). The left side was involved in 12 cases and the right side in 10 cases. The causes included sports injury in 16 patients, violent injury in 4 patients, and falling injury in 2 patients. MRI revealed that the distance from the ruptured site to the calcaneal tuberosity ranged from 40 to 70 mm (mean, 35 mm). The duration from injury to surgery ranged from 0.5 to 7 days (mean, 4.2 days). The incision of 4 cm in length was made at the initial point of Achilles tendon, and minimally invasive non-end-to-end suturing system was used to hold the Achilles. The ruptured tendon was sutured with two non-absorbed thread. The limb was fixed with plaster for 6 weeks. ResultsThe incision all healed by first intention without complications of sural nerve damage and infection. All patients were followed up 8-14 months (mean, 11 months). According to the Arner-Lindholm functional score criteria, the results were excellent in 19 cases and good in 3 cases. No Achilles tendon rupture happened again during follow-up. ConclusionThe small incision with non-end-to-end suturing system is an effective operation strategy for treatment of acute Achilles rupture. The patients can do function exercise at early-stage with satisfatory short-term effectiveness.
Objective To investigate the reasons of misdiagnosis and missing diagnosis in blunt abdominal trauma (BAT), and to put forward effective preventive measures. Methods Literature on BAT diagnosis in recent years was reviewed. Results Misdiagnosis and missing diagnosis, which can take place in every segment of BAT patients, were still quite common nowadays. Conclusion Detailed case history collecting, faithful medical examination and making good use of assistant examinations can efficiently decrease the misdiagnosis and missing diagnosis rates of BAT patients.
ObjectiveTo investigate the effectiveness of modified suture technique in the treatment of acute closed Achilles tendon rupture.MethodsBetween December 2013 and December 2016, 29 cases with acute closed Achilles tendon rupture were treated with modified suture technique. There were 23 males and 6 females with an average age of 34 years (range, 22-45 years). All patients were sport injuries. The injury located at left side in 22 cases and right side in 7 cases. American Foot and Ankle Surgery Association (AOFAS) ankle and hind foot function score was 44.6±3.6. According to the Amer-Lindholm criteria, 29 cases were rated as poor. MRI showed the complete rupture of the Achilles tendon.ResultsThe operation time was 35-62 minutes (mean, 46 minutes). The intraoperative blood loss volume was 7-15 mL (mean, 10 mL). The incisions healed by first intention, and no sural nerve injury occured. All patients were followed up 5-38 months (mean, 18.4 months). AOFAS ankle and hind foot function score was 93.1±4.3 at 3 months after operation, showing significant difference when compared with the preoperative value (t=–49.581, P=0.000). According to the Amer-Lindholm criteria, the results were excellent in 24 cases and good in 5 cases, and the excellent and good rate was 100%; there was significant difference between pre- and post-operation (Z=–7.294, P=0.000). MRI showed the continuous and integrity of Achilles tendon. No Achilles tendon rupture recurred during the follow-up period.ConclusionModified suture technique in the treatment of acute closed Achilles tendon rupture owns the advantages of less trauma, lower recurrence rate of rupture, lower risk of the sural nerve injury, and satisfactory function recovery.
