Objective To review the research progress of bone graft resorption after Latarjet procedure for the treatment of recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation, and provide a guide for further research on bone graft resorption. Methods The relevant literature in recent years was extensively reviewed. The pathogenesis, classification, risk factors, clinical function impact, and management of bone graft resorption after Latarjet procedure for the treatment of recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation were summarized. Results Bone graft resorption is the common complication after Latarjet procedure for the treatment of recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation. Stress shielding and poor blood supply may contribute to the occurrence of bone graft resorption. The absence of significant preoperative glenoid bone loss, open procedure, earlier graft healing may to be the risk factors for bone graft resorption. Various assessment methods and classification systems are used to evaluate the region and severity of bone graft resorption. Partial resorption may be considered as a natural glenoid remodeling process after the surgery, but severe and complete resorption is proved to be one of the reasons for failed procedures and there is no effective measure to prevent it, except for accepting revision surgery. Conclusion The pathogenesis, risk factors, clinical function impact of bone graft resorption after Latarjet procedure for the treatment of recurrent anterior shoulder dislocation has not been fully elucidated and there is a lack of effective management strategies, so further clinical and basic researches are needed.
Objective To investigate the surgical techniques and effectiveness for reconstruction of severe full-thickness chest wall defects. Methods Between January 2006 and December 2010, 14 patients with full-thickness chest wall defects were treated, including 12 cases caused by giant chest wall mal ignant tumor excision, 1 case by thermocompression injury, and 1 case by radiation necrosis. There were 8 males and 6 females with an average age of 42 years (range，23-65 years). The size of chest wall defects ranged from 8 cm × 5 cm to 26 cm × 14 cm. All patients compl icated by rib defect (1-5 ribs), and 3 cases by sternum defect. Thoracic skeleton reconstruction was performed with Vicryl mesh or polytetrafluroethylene mesh in 10 patients. Other 4 patients did not undergo thoracic skeleton reconstruction. The bilobed skin flaps, pectoral is major myocutaneous flap, latissimus dorsi myocutaneous flap, and rectus abdominis myocutaneous flap were util ized for repairing soft tissue defects. The size of the dissected flaps ranged from 10 cm × 7 cm to 25 cm × 13 cm. The donor sites were sutured directly or were repaired by free skin graft. Results Poor heal ing of incision occurred in 2 cases, which was cured after debridement, myocutaneous flap transfer, and skin graft. The other wounds healed by first intention. All patients were followed up 6-36 months (mean, 8 months). No tumor recurrence during follow-up, except 1 patient with osteosarcoma who died of l iver matastasis at 6 months after operation. Transient sl ight paradoxical respiration occurred in 1 patient who did not undergo thoracic skeleton reconstruction at 5 days after operation. Integrity of chest wall in other patients was restored without paradoxical respiration and dyspnea. Conclusion Depending on the cause, the size, and the location of defect, single or combination flaps could be used to repair soft tissue defect, and thoracic skeleton reconstruction should be performed when defect is severe by means of syntheticmaterials.

Based on the anatomical studies, the authors had designed an operation for treating old dorsal subluxation of the inferior radio-ulnar joint.The periosteum was longitudinally incised at the dorsal side of the lower ulna. forming musculo-periosteal flap, and a periosteal flap, and a periosteal valves of pronator quadratus. They were subluxation, passing the flap from palmar to the dorsal side through thc subperiosteal tunnel at the lateral margin of the radius corresponding to the ulna. Then it was circled round the lower end on the ulna and sutured to the muscular flap and the tough interosseous membranes at the palmar side, being used to stabilize the recuperated dorsal subluxation of the inferior radio-ulnar joint. The result of its clinical use was satifying.

ObjectiveTo review the research progress of the biomechanical study of the Bristow-Latarjet procedure for anterior shoulder dislocation. MethodsThe related biomechanical literature of Bristow-Latarjet procedure for anterior shoulder dislocation was extensively reviewed and summarized. ResultsThe current literature suggests that when performing Bristow-Latarjet procedure, care should be taken to fix the bone block edge flush with the glenoid in the sagittal plane in the direction where the rupture of the joint capsule occurs. If traditional screw fixation is used, a double-cortical screw fixation should be applied, while details such as screw material have less influence on the biomechanical characteristics. Cortical button fixation is slightly inferior to screws in terms of biomechanical performance. The most frequent site of postoperative bone resorption is the proximal-medial part of the bone block, and the cause of bone resorption at this site may be related to the stress shielding caused by the screw. ConclusionThere is no detailed standardized guidance for bone block fixation. The optimal clinical treatment plan for different degrees of injury, the factors influencing postoperative bone healing and remodeling, and the postoperative osteoarticular surface pressure still need to be further clarified by high-quality biomechanical studies.
Objective To compare the long-term results andpossible complications of a modified temporalis muscle transfer(TMT) with the Johnson’s procedure in correction of paralytic lagophthalmos.Methods FromSeptember 1997 to March 2000, paralytic lagophthalmos due to leprosy in 92 patients were corrected with TMT. The 89 cases (127 to eyes including 51 unilateral and 38 bilateral) followed up 3 years after operation were analyzed. There were 69 males and 20 females with ages ranging from 18 to 65 years (52 years on average). The duration of lagophthalmos was 1-22 years with an average of 8.2 years.And 36 eyes were complicated with lower eyelid ectropion. Sixtyfive eyes were corrected with Johnson’s procedure(Johnson’s TMT group), 62 with the modified TMT procedure (modified TMT group). The modifications were as follows: ① omitting the fascial strip in the lower eyelid to avoid postoperative ectropion. ② fixing the fascial strip of the upper eyelid to the middle or inner margin of the tarsal palate depending on the degree of the lagophthalmos to avoid possible ptosis of the upper eyelid. Results In Johnson’s TMT group, the mean lid gap on light closure was reduced to 3.1 mm postoperatively from 7.7 mm preoperatively; and the mean lid gap on tight closure was reduced to 0.5 mm postoperatively from 6.1 mm preoperatively. The symptoms of redness (73.7%) and tearing(63.7%) disappeared or were improved postoperatively. However, ectropion and ptosis occurred in 24 eyes and 9 eyes respectively. The overall excellent and goodrate was 58.5%. In the modified TMT group, the mean lid gap on light closure was reduced to 3.3 mm postoperatively from 7.5 mm preoperatively; and the mean lidgap on tight closure was reduced to 0.6 mm postoperatively from 6.3 mm preoperatively. The symptoms of redness (90.9%) and tearing (71.0%) disappeared or wereimproved postoperatively, and no ectropion or ptosis was found except one ectropion. The overall excellent and good rate was 87.1%, which was significantly higher than that of Johnson’s group(Plt;0.01). Conclusion The modified TMT is an efficiency and simple procedure with very few complications, and thus is bly recommended for use when TMT is an indication.
BJECTIVE: To study the effect of transposition of great adductor muscular tendon pedicled vessels in repairing the medial collateral ligament defect of knee joint. METHODS: From September 1991 to September 1999, on the basis study of applied anatomy, 30 patients with the medial collateral ligament defect were repaired with great adductor muscular tendon transposition pedicled vessels. Among them, there were 28 males and 2 females, aged 26 years in average. RESULTS: Followed up for 17 to 60 months, 93.3% patients reached excellent or good grades. No case fell into the poor grade. CONCLUSION: Because the great adductor muscular tendon is adjacent to the knee joint and similar to the knee ligament, it is appropriate to repair knee ligament. Transposition of the great adductor muscular tendon pedicled vessels is effective in the reconstruction of the medial collateral ligament defect of knee joint.
OBJECTIVE To investigate the therapeutical effect of treatment of ischemic necrosis of femoral head by the transfer of vascular pedicled iliac periosteum. METHODS From June 1983 to August 1997, 106 cases with ischemic necrosis of femoral head (II stage in 64 cases, III stage in 39 cases, IV stage in 3 cases) were treated by the transfer of vascular pedicled iliac periosteum with ascending branch of lateral femoral circumflex vessel or deep circumflex iliac vessel pedicle. RESULTS Followed up 2 years and 4 months to 16 years, there were excellent in 54 cases, better in 38 cases, moderate in 9 cases, poor in 5 cases, and 86.8% in excellent rate according to the criterion of the therapeutical effect on the repair and reconstruction of adult ischemic necrosis of femoral head. CONCLUSION Treating ischemic necrosis of femoral head by the transfer of vascular pedicled iliac periosteum has the advantage of constant pedicle, easily drawing materials and reliable therapeutical effect.
ObjectiveTo provide anatomical basis for vascularized pisiform transfer in the treatment of advanced avascular necrosis of the lunate (Kienböck’s disease) by studying its morphology and blood supply pattern based on digital technique.MethodsTwelve adult fresh wrist joint specimens were selected and treated with gelatin-lead oxide solution from ulnar or radial artery. Then the three-dimensional (3D) images of the pisiform and lunate were reconstructed by micro-CT scanning and Mimics software. The morphologies of pisiform and lunate were observed and the longitudinal diameter, transverse diameter, and thickness of pisiform and lunate were measured. The main blood supply sources of pisiform were observed. The number, diameter, and distribution of nutrient foramina at proximal, distal, radial, and ulnar sides of pisiform were recorded. The anatomic parameters of the pedicles (branch of trunk of ulnar artery, carpal epithelial branch, descending branch of carpal epithelial branch, recurrent branch of deep palmar branch) were measured, including the outer diameter of pedicle initiation, distance of pedicle from pisiform, and distance of pedicle from lunate. ResultsThere were significant differences in the longitudinal and transverse diameters between pisiform and lunate (t=6.653, P=0.000; t=6.265, P=0.000), but there was no significant difference in thickness (t= 1.269, P=0.109). The distal, proximal, radial, and ulnar sides of pisiform had nutrient vessels. The nutrient foramina at proximal side were significantly more than that at distal side (P<0.05), but there was no significant difference in the diameter of nutrient foramina between different sides (P>0.05). The outer diameter of pedicle initiation of the recurrent branch of deep palmar branch was significantly smaller than the carpal epithelial branch and descending branch of carpal epithelial branch (P<0.05). There was no significant difference in the distance of pedicle from pisiform/lunate between branch of trunk of ulnar artery and recurrent branch of deep palmar branch (P>0.05), and between carpal epithelial branch and descending branch of carpal epithelial branch (P>0.05). But the differences between the other vascular pedicles were significant (P<0.05). ConclusionThere are abundant nutrient vessels at the proximal and ulnar sides of pisiform, so excessive stripping of the proximal and ulnar soft tissues should be avoided during the vascularized pisiform transfer. It is feasible to treat advanced Kienböck’s disease by pisiform transfer with the carpal epithelial branch of ulnar artery and the descending branch.
