Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of Confidence high viscosity bone cement system and postural reduction in treating acute severe osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF). Methods Between June 2004 and June2009, 34 patients with acute severe OVCF were treated with Confidence high viscosity bone cement system and postural reduction. There were 14 males and 20 females with an average age of 72.6 years (range, 62-88 years). All patients had single thoracolumbar fracture, including 4 cases of T11, 10 of T12, 15 of L1, 4 of L2, and 1 of L3. The bone density measurement showed that T value was less than —2.5. The time from injury to admission was 2-72 hours. All cases were treated with postural reduction preoperatively. The time of reduction in over-extending position was 7-14 days. All patients were injected unilaterally. The injected volume of high viscosity bone cement was 2-6 mL (mean, 3.2 mL). Results Cement leakage was found in 3 cases (8.8%) during operation, including leakage into intervertebral space in 2 cases and into adjacent paravertebral soft tissue in 1 case. No cl inical symptom was observed and no treatment was pearformed. No pulmonary embolism, infection, nerve injury, or other complications occurred in all patients. All patients were followed up 12-38 months (mean, 18.5 months). Postoperatively, complete pain rel ief was achievedin 31 cases and partial pain refief in 3 cases; no re-fracture or loosening at the interface occurred. At 3 days after operation and last follow-up, the anterior and middle vertebral column height, Cobb angle, and visual analogue scale (VAS) score were improved significantly when compared with those before operation (P lt; 0.05)；and there was no significant difference between 3 days and last follow-up (P gt; 0.05). Conclusion Confidence high viscosity bone cement system and postural reduction can be employed safely in treating acute severe OVCF, which has many merits of high viscosity, long time for injection, and easy-to-control directionally.
Objective To summarize the progress of Masquelet technique to repair bone defect. Methods The recent literature concerning the application of Masquelet technique to repair bone defect was extensively reviewed and summarized. Results Masquelet technique involves a two-step procedure. First, bone cement is used to fill the bone defect after a thorough debridement, and an induced membrane structure surrounding the spacer formed; then the bone cement is removed after 6-8 weeks, and rich cancellous bone is implanted into the induced membrane. Massive cortical bone defect is repaired by new bone forming and consolidation. Experiments show that the induced membrane has vascular system and is also rich in vascular endothelial growth factor, transforming growth factor β1, bone morphogenetic protein 2, and bone progenitor cells, so it has osteoinductive property; satisfactory results have been achieved in clinical application of almost all parts of defects, various types of bone defect and massive defect up to 25 cm long. Compared with other repair methods, Masquelet technique has the advantages of reliable effect, easy to operate, few complications, low requirements for recipient site, and wide application. Conclusion Masquelet technique is an effective method to repair bone defect and is suitable for various types of bone defect, especially for bone defects caused by infection and tumor resection.
Objective To evaluate the effect of remote controlled injection manipulator system (RCIM) assisted percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) for the treatment of rupture of posterior vertebral osteoporotic vertebral fracture by comparing with intermittent hand bolus injection of bone cement during operation. Methods Between September 2010 and January 2016, a retrospective analysis was made on the clinical data of 48 senile patients with single segment rupture of the posterior vertebral osteoporotic thoracolumbar fracture undergoing PKP who accorded with the inclusion criteria. Of 48 patients, 22 received intermittent hand bolus injection of bone cement in the control group, and 26 received RCIM assisted bone cement perfusion in the trial group. There was no significant difference in age, gender, duration of disease, causes of injury, implicated vertebral bodies, bone mineral density T value, pain duration, preoperative visual analogue scale (VAS), relative vertebral body height in the anterior part, and posterior convex Cobb angle between groups (P>0.05). The bone cement perfusion time, the radiation dose of both doctors and patients, and the amount of bone cement injection were recorded; treatment effects were evaluated based on VAS score, posterior convex Cobb angle, relative ver-tebral body height in the anterior part, ratios of bone cement diffusion area and bone cement leakage rate. Results The patients were followed up for 6 months; no complications of toxic effect of bone cement, spinal cord or nerve root injuries, infection and vascular embolization occurred during follow-up period. There was no significant difference in bone cement injection amount and radiation dose of doctors between groups (P>0.05), but bone cement perfusion time, ratios of bone cement diffusion area, and radiation dose of patients were significantly lower in the trial group than the control group (P<0.05). Bone cement leakage was observed in 6 cases of the control group (27.27%) and 2 cases of the trial group (7.69%), showing significant difference between groups (χ2=4.850,P=0.029); no cement leakage into the spinal canal was found in both groups. VAS score, relative vertebral body height in the anterior part, and posterior convex Cobb angle were significantly improved at 3 days and 6 months after operation when compared with preoperative ones (P<0.05), but no significant difference was observed in the above indexes between groups at 3 days and 6 months after operation (P>0.05). Conclusion Satisfactory effectiveness can be achieved by applying RCIM assisted PKP for the treatment of rupture of posterior vertebral osteoporotic vertebral fracture. RCIM can shorten perfusion time, reduce radiation dose, and decrease incidence of bone cement leakage.

Commonly used methods to evaluate the injectability included testing injectability coefficient, pushing force and injection pressure.Injectability of calcium phosphatecement were promoted by increasing liquid/solid ratio, modulating the componentof solid or liquid phase, and adding various additives.Conclusion Promoting the injectability of calcium phosphate cement is the clinical requirement.
Objective To compare the bone resorption between the proximal fixation of the anatomique benoist giraud（ABG） hip and the distal fixation of the anatomic medullary locking（AML） hip by the medium-term X-ray films, and to evaluate the clinical results of the two prostheses. Methods From January 1992 to December 1996, 298 patients (396 hips) underwent the total hip arthroplasty at Wilson Hospital in Korea. In 125 patients, 176 hips were ABG hips, including 103 avascularnecrosis hips, 57 dysplasia hips, and 16 other diseased hips; In the other 173 patient the remaining 220 hips were AML hips, including 147 avascular necrosis hips, 65 dysplasia hips, and 8 other diseased hips. The A-P X-ray imagings were followed up for 5-12 years averaged 8 years, and were compared with the immediate postoperative X-ray imagings. The bone resorption area was measured and the bone resorption cases were recorded according to the Gruen zone obsesvation. Results During operation, 2 ABG hips and 5 AML hips were cracked at the femoral diaphysis; 3 ABG hips and 1 AML hip were cracked at the metaphysis; 6 ABGhips and 3 AML hips were fractured because of trauma after operation; among them, 2 ABG hips needed the stem revision and the remaining hips underwent the openreduction and the internal fixation. During the follow-up, 9 ABG hips were revised, 7 hips of which developed the aseptic loosening. No AML hip was revised, but 3 AML hips developed the aseptic loosening. The bone resorption pattern in theABG and AML hips was similar. The bone resorption occurred most commonly in theGruen zones 1 and 7, and it extended from the metaphysis to the diaphysis. In the Guren zones 2, 5, 6 and 7, there were more AML hips than ABG hips that developed the bone resorption. The bone resorption area around the AML hip was larger than that around the ABG hip. Conclusion The stress shielding bone resorption usually occurs proximally to the union area of the bone and the prosthesis. The ABG prosthesis is a proximal fixation prosthesis, therefore, the stress shielding bone resorption can be reduced. The bone resorption around the AML prosthesis develops slowly within 10 years after operation. The stress shielding bone resoption may reach the summit within 10 years and it will not develop endlessly, so the prosthesis will be stable for a long time. The probabilityof the bone resorption in the ABG prosthesis is smaller than that in the AMLprosthesis. The bone resorption around the AML prosthesis may develop slowly after 10 years and will not affect the stability of the prosthesis for a long time.
Objective To investigate the physicochemicalproperties of the calcium phosphate cement (CPC) containing Danshen composite injection and its drug release rate. Methods This experiment included 4 groups and each group contained 6 specimens. CPC (2 g) was mixed with the setting solution that served as thecontrol group; 0.1,0.5 and 1.0 ml of Danshen composites injection (concentration, 1 000 mg/ml; pH, 7.35) were respectively added to CPC (2 g), which were used as the experimental groups 1, 2 and 3. The resulting specimens were investigated by the X-ray diffraction (XRD), the fourier transformed infrared spectroscopy(FTIR), and the scanning electron microscope (SEM).ResultsThe XRD analysis showed that the control group had a typical diffraction pattern of the hydroxypatite (HAP), which was consistent with the standard patternof HAP. When more Danshen was added in the experimental groups, the diffractionpeaks of HAP gradually decreased; when the diffraction angle 2θ was about 25.92°, the HAP peaks disappeared. Based on the FTIR analysis, with an increase of the drug concentration, the absorption peak of the hydroxy groups decreased. The SEM showed that the size of the CPC particle was related to the drug concentration; with an increase of the drug concentration, the CPC particle increased in number, resulting in an increasing trend of coacervation. The elution test showed that the drugrelease rate and capacity varied with the different concentrationsof Danshen. The initial release rate was relatively great, but after 96 hours the rate slowed down, lasting for a long time. Conclusion The physicochemical properties of CPC do not change when a proper dose (0.1 ml/2 g) of Danshen isadded to CPC. The Danshen composite can be effectively released from CPC, and so CPCcan be used as an ideal drugdelivery carrier for Danshen composite.
ObjectiveTo evaluate the safety of photoelectric guided navigation unilateral puncture of the percutaneous kyphoplasty (PKP) in the treatment of thoracolumbar osteoporotic vertebral compression fracture (OVCF).MethodsA randomized controlled clinical research was performed between June 2015 and January 2017. Eighty-five cases of OVCF were treated with photoelectric guided navigation unilateral puncture of the PKP (trial group, 43 cases) or C arm fluoroscopy unilateral puncture of the PKP (control group, 42 cases) respectively. There was no significant difference in gender, age, disease duration, segmental fracture, AO classification, bone mineral density, and preoperative visual analogue scale (VAS) score between 2 groups (P>0.05). The concordance rate of puncture path and design path, the incidence of pedicle wall breaking, the incidence of bone cement leakage, and the rate of bone cement distribution center were observed and calculated on postoperative CT images; the intraoperative X-ray exposure frequency, frequency of puncture, operation time, VAS scores before operation and at 2 days after operation, and postoperative blood vessel or nerve injury were recorded and compared.ResultsThe intraoperative X-ray exposure frequency and puncture frequency in trial group were significantly less than those in control group (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in operation time between 2 groups (t=0.440, P=0.661). The VAS scores of 2 groups at 2 days after operation were significantly improved when compared with preoperative ones (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in VAS score at 2 days after operation between 2 groups (t=0.406, P=0.685). All the patients were followed up 6-18 months (mean, 10 months). No blood vessel or nerve injury occurred in 2 groups. The incidence of pedicle wall breaking, the incidence of bone cement leakage, the concordance rate of puncture path and design path, and the rate of bone cement distribution center in trial group were 2.33% (1/43), 2.33% (1/43), 86.05% (37/43), and 88.37% (38/43) respectively, all showing significant differences when compared with those of control group [19.05% (8/42), 21.43% (9/42), 45.24% (19/42), and 50.00% (21/42) respectively] (P<0.05).ConclusionIntraoperative photoelectric guided navigation unilateral puncture of the PKP can improve the success rate of target puncture and reduce the incidence of pedicle wall breaking effectively, and achieve better bone cement distribution and better security.
ObjectiveTo explore the clinical application and effectiveness of antibiotic-loaded cement spacer combined with free fibular graft in the staged treatment of infectious long bone defect in the lower extremity. MethodsA retrospective analysis was made on the clinical data from 12 patients with infectious long bone defect in the lower extremity between June 2010 and June 2012. Of the 12 cases, there were 9 males and 3 females with an average age of 33 years (range, 19-46 years), including 3 cases of femoral shaft bone defect, 7 cases of tibial shaft bone defect, and 2 cases of metatarsal bone defect. The causes were traffic accident injury in 7 cases, crashing injury in 3 cases, and machine extrusion injury in 2 cases. The length of bone defect ranged from 6 to 14 cm (mean, 8 cm). The soft tissue defect area ranged from 5.0 cm×3.0 cm to 8.0 cm×4.0 cm companied with tibial shaft and metatarsal bone defect in 9 cases. The sinus formed in 3 femoral shaft bone defects. The time between injury and operation was 1-4 months (mean, 2 months). At first stage, antibiotic-loaded cement spacer was placed in the bone defect after debridement and the flaps were used to repair soft tissue defect in 9 cases; at second stage (6 weeks after the first stage), defect was repaired with free fibular graft (7-22 cm in length, 14 cm on average) after antibiotic-loaded cement spacer removal. The area of the cutaneous fibular flap ranged from 6.0 cm×4.0 cm to 10.0 cm×5.0 cm in 10 cases. ResultsAll wounds healed by first intention, and the healing time was 12-18 days, 14 days on average. Twelve cases were followed up 12-36 months (mean, 17 months). Bone healing time ranged from 4 to 6 months (5.5 months on average). The cutaneous fibular flap had good appearance. The function at donor site was satisfactory; no dysfunction of the ankle joint or tibial stress fracture occurred after operation. The mean Enneking score was 25 (range, 20-28) at last follow-up. ConclusionInfection can be well controlled with the antibiotic-loaded cement spacer during first stage operation, and free fibular graft can increase the bone defect healing rate at second stage. Staged treatment is an optimal choice to treat infectious long bone defect in the lower extremity.
Objective To evaluate the medium-term results of uncemented acetabular revision with impacted deep frozen morsell ized allografts. Methods From April 1995 to December 2001, 58 cases (62 hips) were performed acetabularrevision by use of deep frozen morsel ized allograft firmly impacted into local ized defects as well as the entire acetabular cavity, followed by insertion of a uncemented cup with supplementary screw fixation. There were 32 males (34 hips) and 26 females (28 hips), with age of (49.6 ± 15.4) years old. Among 62 hips, 32 hips involved in left side and 30 hips involved in right side. The cause of revision was aseptic loosening of the cup in 56 hips, septic loosening of the cup in 3 hips, and polyethylene l iner dislodging with severe acetabular osteolysis in 3 hips. The average interval between the primary total hip arthroplasty and the revision was (10.1 ± 3.9) years. According to the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons classification, 42 hips belonged to type II and 20 hi ps to type III acetabular defects. The cl inical and radiographic results were analyzed postoperatively. Results All wounds healed by first intention. No deep venous thrombosis and infection occurred postoperatively. All patients were followed up 6-13 years (average 8.1 years). The Harris score was improved from 61.1 ± 10.2 preoperatively to 92.0 ± 7.3 postoperatively, showing significant difference between preoperation and postoperation (P lt; 0.05). The results were excellent in 46 hips, good in 10 hips, fair in 4 hips, and poor in 2 hips, the excellent and good rate was 90.3%. The time for allograft incorporation was (12.5 ± 4.4) months after operation. The annual polyethylene l iner wear rate was (0.13 ± 0.09) mm. Linear and cavitary osteolysis was observed in 2 and 12 hips, respectively. Heterotopic ossification developed in 7 hi ps (11.3%); 3 hi ps were rated as grade I, 3 as grade II, and 1 as grade III according to Brooker classification. One cup underwent revision for asepticloosening and 2 were defined as radiographic failures. Kaplan-Meier survival rate of the cup was 94.2% ± 3.3% at 8 years after operation. Conclusion The combination of uncemented cup component with deep frozen morsel ized allografts seems to be a rel iable solution for restoring bone stock, relocating the hip center, and stabil izing the cup in acetabular revision, and provides favorable medium-term cl inical and radiographic results.
