OBJECTIVETo investigate clinical outcomes of tendon allograft reconstruction with arthroscopy minimally invasive technique at stage I for the treatment of knee dislocation with multiple ligaments injury.

METHODSForty-eight patients with knee dislocation were reconstructed anterior and posterior ligament under arthroscopy at stage I from January 2008 to January 2012, and repaired ligaments injury of knee joint by minimally invasive technique. There were 38 males and 10 females aged from 20 to 59 years old with an average of 35.6 years old; 22 cases on the left side and 26 cases on the right side; the time from injury to operation ranged from 2 d to 2 weeks. Two cases combined with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL), posterior cruciate ligament (PCL), medial collateral ligament (MCL) and posterolateral complex injuries, 36 cases combined with ACL, PCL, and MCL injuries, 10 cases combined with ACL, PCL and PLC injuries; 4 cases combined with peroneal nerve injury. Lysholm scoring were used to compared the cases before operation and final following-up to evaluate knee function.

RESULTSAll patients were followed up from 12 to 30 months with an average of (18.2 ± 6.3) months. Activity and stability of joint were obviously improved. Lysholm score were improved from 40.3 ± 4.1 before operation to 87.0 ± 6.4 at final following-up.

CONCLUSIONReconstruction with arthroscopy minimally invasive technique at stage I for the treatment of knee dislocation with multiple ligaments injury could recover stability of joint better,reserve joint function. Preoperative training and postoperative individualized rehabilitation treatment is the key point of recover knee joint function.

Objective To study on the value and safety of early endoscopic retrograde cholangiopan-creatography (ERCP)and endoscopic sphincterotomy (EST) in acute biliary pancreatitis. Methods Ninety-two patients with acute biliary pancreatitis underwent early ERCP (within 72 hours) and received endoscopic therapy (ERCP group). Another 40 patients with acute biliary pancreatitis were treated conservatively without ERCP (control group). The disappearance of abdominal pain, decrease of serum amylase level, the mean days and costs of hospitalization and complications were observed in all patients. Results In ERCP group, all patients were performed EST, stones in 72 choledocholithiasis patients had been removed with net-basket or air pocket. Ten cases of severe acute biliary pancreatitis received endoscopic pancreatic duct stents drainage. Ninety two cases of acute biliary pancreatitis received endoscopic nasal catheter bile drainage. The days of the disappearance of abdominal pain, the decrease of serum amylase levels, the cost of the hospitalization and the days of the hospitalization were significantly shorter in the early ERCP group than in the control group. The mortalities in ERCP and control group were 8. 3% and 33. 3% respectively. Conclusion Early ERCP endoscopic therapy is a safe procedure has the superiorities in lowering the mortality, hospital days and expense.
