[Objective]To analyze the result of mini-type T plate for treatment of Mason type-III radial head fracture.[Method]Seven cases of Mason type-Ⅲ radial head fractures,6 male and 1 female,including 2 cases with radial neck fractures,were treated by open reduction and mini-type T plate fixation associated with Kirscher wires.If necessary,bone graft was placed between radial head and neck.[Result]The patients were followed up for an average of 20.3 months(ranged from 14 to 39 months).All fractured radial heads were heal and no case appeared ischemic necrosis.According to the Brobrg and Morrey functional elbow index,the averaged score was 87 points and the outcome was excellent in 2 patients,good in 4,the excellent and good rate was 85.7%.[Conclusion]Treatment of Mason type-Ⅲ radial head fractures by open reduction,mini type T plate fixation assocated with Kerscher's wire and autogenous bone graft showed a high union rate of fracture and satisfactory joint function but no ischemic necrosis with the advantages of reservation of radial head and decreasing the rate of re-section and prosthesis replacement.Further observation should be taken to get more clinical cases number.

[Objective]To investigation the relavant genes to the pathogenesis and metastasis of osteosarcoma,and to discuss the significance of gene expression in the pathogenesis and metastasis of osteosarcoma. [Method]Two well-known ATCC osteosarcoma cell lines and an osteoblastic cell line were collected.After the total RNA was extracted,the finally synthesized biotinylated cRNAs were hybridized to SBC arrays.After the design and synthethesis of the primers,four of the differentially expressed genes were then chosen at random to further confirm the array results using the SYBR Green real-time RT-PCR method in freshly collected osteosarcoma specimens and the cell lines.The data analysis depended on the ABI Prism 7300 system.[Result]By an entrance limit of ≥2.0 or ≤0.5,189 up-regulated and 84 dowm-regulated genes which were considerable differentially expressed in the two osteosarcoma cell lines compared with the osteoblastic cell line hfob1.19 were finally detected.Many of the genes were first reported to be related to the pathogenesis of osteosarcoma.The array results were further confirmed by the real-time RT-PCR.[Conclusion]Many genes are involved in the pathogenesis and metastasis of osteosarcoma.It is helpful to apply gene array to find the laws of gene expression and to study the gene-gene interactional relationships in this tumor.
