ObjectiveTo investigate the effectiveness of arthroscopic GraftLink technique reconstruction combined with suture anchor fixation in treatment of anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) rupture and medial collateral ligament (MCL) grade Ⅲ injury.MethodsBetween June 2015 and February 2018, 28 patients with ACL rupture and MCL grade Ⅲ injury were treated. Arthroscopic GraftLink technique was used to reconstruct ACL with autologous peroneus longus tendon (PLT), and suture anchor fixation was used to repair MCL. There were 22 males and 6 females, aged 21-47 years, with an average age of 30.4 years. The cause of injury included traffic accident in 18 cases, falling from height in 7 cases, and sports injury in 3 cases. The time from injury to admission was 1-2 weeks, with an average of 1.3 weeks. The preoperative Lysholm score of knee joint was 46.8±3.0 and the International Knee Documentation Commission (IKDC) score was 49.2±2.7. The American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score of ankle joint was 98.29±0.72. Both Lachman test and valgus stress test were positive. There were 8 cases of meniscus injury and 2 cases of cartilage injury.ResultsThe operation time ranged from 55 to 90 minutes, with an average of 72.5 minutes. All incisions healed by first intention after operation, and no complications related to operation occurred. All patients were followed up 6-38 months, with an average of 20.7 months. At 3 months after operation, the range of motion of the knee joint was 116- 132°, with an average of 122°. Lachman test showed that the anterior translation more than 5 mm in 2 cases, and the others were negative; while the valgus stress test showed that all patients were positive. At 6 months after operation, the Lysholm score and IKDC score of knee joint were 90.2±1.8 and 93.5±2.3, respectively, which were significantly higher than preoperative scores (t=31.60, P=0.00; t=29.91, P=0.01); AOFAS score of ankle joint was 97.86±0.68, with no significant difference compared with preoperative score (t=2.89, P=0.08). KT-1000 test showed that the difference of anterior relaxation between bilateral knee joints was less than 2 mm in 25 cases and 3 to 5 mm in 3 cases.ConclusionThe method of ACL reconstruction via arthroscopic GraftLink technique with PLT and MCL repair via suture anchor fixation has the advantages of less knee injury and faster recovery, and there is no significant impact on ankle function after tendon removal.
Thirtysix patients with a total of 89 places of skin wounds which was involved with various depths of skin were treated by application of autogenous whole layer skin mash, in which the ratio betweenepidermis and dermis was 3∶1 and the ratio between the donor area and that of the recipient ranged from 1∶5 to 1∶20. The patients were followed from 6 months to 18 months. The results were excellent in 58, good in 15, fair in 11 and bad in 5. Different depths of the skin wounds such as superficial dermis, deep dermis, subcutis and deep fascia were responsible in seqence for the decreasing percentage of survival of the microcutaneous particle graft. It was shown that a considerably high survival might be obtained in both wounds down to fat or fascial layer.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the index of the rejection of lJle retinal pigment epithelium(RPE)cells transplantation. METHOD:Allogenic RPE transplantation on rahbits by transcleral technique, the changes of interleukin-2 (IL-2) activity in peripheral blood and the effect of immunoinhibitor (methylprednisonlone)were detected. RESLILTS:In the group of simple transplantation,the IL-2 activity in peripheral blood begin to rise in the first day after operation. The peak value occured in the third day,and is still much higher than that of the control group in the 14th day,whereas in the group treated with immunoinhibitor ,there was no obvious difference in the first day after operatlon,in the third day,the IL-2 activity rises slightly,and returned to normal level in the 7th day. CONCLUSION: After RPE transplantation, the level of IL-2 activity in peripheral blood might serve as an important index to determining and detecting the rejective response. （Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,1996,12: 239-241）
Objective To evaluate the surgical technique, clinical results, and the complications of modified free vascularized fibular grafting for the treatment of osteonecrosis of the femoral head. Methods From October 2000 to August 2004, 124 patients (139 hips) with osteonecrosis of the femoral head were treated with modified free vascularized fibular grafting. There were 83 males(93 hips) and 41 females (46 hips), with a mean age of 36.4 years(16.57). The disease was caused by trauma in 49 cases(54 hips), use of steroids in 29 cases (32 hips), consumption of alcohol in 19 cases (21 hips) and idiopathic condition in 27 cases (32 hips). Of 139 hips, 50 were classified as stage Ⅱ; 71 as stage Ⅲ, 18 as stage Ⅳ according to Steinberg system; theHarris hip scores were 79.3, 69.3 and 58.4, respectively. At the operation, modified technique of the fibular osteotomy was adopted. A front-hip operative approach was designed and a modified technique of removing the necrotic bone in femoral head was applied. During operation, the duration of operation, the bleeding volume, and the length of incisions were recorded. The follow-up items included the results of X-ray examination, the Harris score of the hip, and the evaluation of the complications. Results The duration of the fibular osteotomy was 10 to 30 min(15 min on average). The duration of the total operation was 80 to 120 min (90 min on average). The length of incision at the hip was 6 to 12 cm (8 cm on average). The bleeding volume was 100 to 300 ml(200 ml onaverage). The average hospitalization days was 7 days. After operation, Harris hip scores in most cases were improved. According to postoperative X-ray, 62 hips (79.5%) were improved to different extents and 14 hips (17.9%) had no significant changes. Deterioration occurred in 2 hips (2.6%). Conclusion The modified free vascularized fibular grafting has lots of virtues, such asless bleeding volume, more clear anatomic structure, more convenience for operation, less damage, less complications, and better results of function recovery.It is an effective method for treating osteonecrosis of the femoral head.
【Abstract】 Objective To evaluate the cl inical outcome of free vascularized fibular associated with il iac graft intreatment of old femoral neck fracture. Methods From January 1994 to January 1997, 76 cases of old femoral neck fracture were treated with free vascularized fibular associated with il iac graft, including 54 males and 22 females, aging from 24 to 48 years with an average of 31.5 years. All of these fractures resulted from injury. There were 20 cases of Garden II, 41 of Garden III and 15 of Garden IV. Based on the location of fracture, there was 26 cases of subcapital, 42 cases of transcervical and 8 cases of basal. Sixty-five cases were treated with internal fixation, 7 cases with skin traction and 4 just with staying in bed. Their Harris score were from 52 to 72 with an average of 65.6. The time from injury to operation was 2-24 months. The size of free vascularized fibular was 6-8 cm and il iac graft was 3.0 cm×2.0 cm×1.5 cm. Results In 76 cases, 68 were followed up and all fractures healed within 4 to 6 months with an average of 5.2 months. The increased density in femoral head was observed 1 year after operation. After 10 years of operation, normal hip function was achieved in 63 cases（followed up 10.1 -12.4 years with theaverage as 10.5 years); the Harris score was 87.5 (84 to 94). The structure of femoral head was normal and the grafted fibular and il iac bone healed with the femoral, no elapse or cyst occurred. Five cases had been compl ied with total hip replacement for femoral head necrosis or other. Conclusion Free vascularized fibular associated with il iac graft is a good method to treat old femoral neck fracture.
【Abstract】Objective To investigate the effect of donor blood transfusion on inducing pancreatic allograft tolerance in outbred rat model. Methods Wistar male rats were used as blood and pancreas donor, and diabetic recipients. One ml of donor blood injected into abdomen of diabetic recipients on the day of transplantation and azathioprine given 2 days pretransplant and continued for three days. Results Pancreas allograft survival was significantly prolonged (28 to 112 days, media survival time 64.2 days). One ml of donor blood alone injected into the abdomen and azathioprine given alone 2 days pretransplant did not improve allograft survival (media survival time 9.8 vs 10.2 days). Conclusion Donor blood injected on the day of transplantation and a 3 days course of azathioprine started 2 days pretransplant have b synergism in inducing long term graft survival in this rat model.
Objective To compare and assess the efficacy of ventral/dorsal onlay graft urethroplasty in the treatment of urethral stricture. Methods We searched pertinent English literature via MEDLINE (1966 to 2007), EMBASE (1977 to 2007) and The Cochrane Library (Issue 4, 2007) for the use of ventral/dorsal graft urethroplasty in the reconstruction of urethral defect associated with urethral stricture. Data were extracted by two reviewers independently and analyzed by SPSS 13.0 software. Results A total of 50 studies involving 1 264 patients were included. Ventral onlay graft urethroplasty was used in 751 patients with a success rate of 82.6%, while dorsal onlay graft urethroplasty was used in 513 patients with a success rate of 86.9% (ventral vs. dorsal, χ2=4.432, P=0.035). Oral mucosa graft had the highest success rate (88.1%) of all grafts, and the success rate of free skin graft onlay urethroplasty was associated with the location of graft placement (ventral vs. dorsal, P=0.016). Concerning the location of stricture, urethroplasty for bulbar urethral stricture achieved the best results, with a success rate of 87.7%, which was also associated with the location of graft placement (ventral vs. dorsal, P=0.025). Conclusion Dorsal onlay graft urethroplasty is better than ventral onlay. It is better to place the free skin graft in the dorsal part of urethra. Bulbar urethral stricture is more suitable for graft onlay urethroplasty than penile urethral stricture.
Objective Chronic graft dysfunction (CGD) has become the major factor that influences the long-term survival of grafts. It is unclear whether the different incidence of CGD has organ specificity. Methods We collected the graft survival rates (GSRs) of solid organ transplantations from the OPTN/SRTR (organ procurement and transplantation network/ scientific registry of transplant recipient). The solid organ transplantations were classified according to the cluster analyses of GSRs during two time periods. We defined the standard of lower survival rate and compared it to the 3-month GSRs (3mGSRs), 1-year GSRs (1y GSRs), 3y GSRs, and 5y GSRs of various solid organ transplantations. Results Deceased donor ECD kidney (DD-ECDK), pancreas transplantation alone (PTA), pancreas after kidney transplantation (PAK), Intestine (In), deceased donor lung (DD-Lu), and heart-lung (H-Lu) were classified into a category which was associated with lower graft survival rates based on the variables of GSRs during the time periods of 1991-1995 and 1996-2000. Compared with those of DD-ECDK, the lowest in the three types of kidney transplantation, the GSRs during the two time periods of the above organ transplantations of lower graft survival were lower [3mGSRs: OR 0.26-0.92, 95%CI (0.20, 0.35)-(0.61,1.39); 1y GSRs : OR 0.30-0.87, 95%CI (0.23,0.37)-(0.78,0.97); 3y GSRs: OR 0.39-0.77, 95%CI (0.30,0.51)-(0.61,0.98); 5y GSRs: OR 0.12-0.87, 95%CI (0.09,0.71)- (0.75,1.0)]. Conclusion The CGD had organ specificity. The grafts of DD-ECDK, PTA, PAK, In, DD-Lu, and H-Lu were identified as the organs with earlier onsets and higher incidence of CGD.
PURPOSE:To carry out preliminary study on immunogenicity or'the retina and provide theoretical bassis of transplant rejection of the retina. METHODS:The allogeneic whole retinal or photoreceptor layer from C57BL/6 mice wer transplanted subcutaneously into BALB/C mice for antigen exposure and delayed hypersensitivity (DH) and modified 51Cr-release assay for specific cytotoxic T lymphoeytes (CTL)were emploied. RESULTS:The allogeneic whole retinal transplantation gave rise to DH(Plt;0.05 )and increased function of CTL of which the killing rate was 33.4% in concentration of 1:90 comparing with negative group (4.8% in 1:90,Plt;0.05)and the risen function could be blocked by anti-CD8. CONCLUSION:We deduce that allogeneic whole retina has immunogenicity and should pay attention to transplant rejection postoperatively.but the photoreceptor layer seems to have no immunogenicity and may be no transplant rejection after its transplantation. （Chin J Ocul Fundus Dis,1997,13: 234-236）
Coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG) is a major treatment method for coronary artery disease，but postoperative vein graft restenosis remains an unsolved problem. Research has confirmed that perioperative antiplatelet therapy can effectively reduce early coronary artery bypass graft thrombosis. Lipid-lowering therapy can significantly improve long-term patency of saphenous vein grafts after CABG. In addition，gene therapy provides a new direction to prevent vein graft restenosis after CABG.
