Arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with bone-patella tendon-bone has been commonly using for ACL insufficient patients. Bone-patellar tendon-bone graft is a strong intra-articular substitute, which allows, by means of its bony end, a rigid fixation with early bone to hone healing. As a counterpart, potentially serious cornplications & donor site morbidity has been reported, such as patella fracture & patella tendon avulsion, anterior knee pain, patella tendinitis, dcmor site pain and bone defect. We suppose tightly packing the donor site bony defect with hetrograft (Lubboc) may be also useful. So, we analyzed the morphological change in bony defect and donor site morbidity between the group of non-replaced bony defect and the group of replaced bony defect using by heterograft (Lubboc). We replaceJ hetrograft into the patellar side bony defect in 15 knees and left alone in l5 knees. The average follow up period was 17 months. The results werc as follows: 1. Nearly norma1 appearance on the bony defect showed at the long tenn follow up roentgenogram in the group of replaced hetrograft, but scalloping on the pateltar bomp defect was seen in non-replaced group. 2. Donor site morbidity (pain or patellai tendinitis) was developed 8 knees in the replaced group, and 7 knees in the non-rep)aced group. 3. We conclude that the filled in the bony defect hy hone graft (heterografl:) can not decrease the donor site morbidi ty.

Superoxide dismutase(SOD), catalase and glutathione peroxidase and the levels of lipid peroxide were assayed in erythrocytes and synovial fluid isolated from 17 patients with osteoarthritis of the knee joints and 7 with healthy knee joints as a control groups. In the erythrocytes, SOD, catalase and glutathione peroxidase activities were significantly increased in osteoarthritis compared with normal control groups, but the changes of malonyldialdehyde level was not significant. The activity of SOD in synovial fluid was significantly decreased in osteoarthritis compared with normal control groups, but catalase activity was significantly increased in synovial fluid of osteoarthritis. This result suggested that the increament of antioxidant enzymes in erythrocytes were probably due to increased production of oxygen radicals in osteoarthritis. In osteoarthritis, knee joints might be injured more easily by oxygen radicals because of decreased activity of SOD in synovial fluid of osteoarthritis.

BACKGROUND: It has been documented that certain prognostic factors may affect the outcomes of the old aged victims by trauma. Considering that trauma is the sixth most common cause of death in people over the age of 65 years and there is a rapid growth of elderly population, it is paramount to understand the prognostic factors when dealing with geriatric trauma patients. Hypothesis and Goals : It can be hypothesized that the prognostic factors should be determined independently between populations being consisted of different races, countries, socio-economic states, cultures, or so on. Thus, study was designed to evaluate the factors affecting the outcomes of elderly Korean trauma patients. METHODS: One hundred forty six patients aged over 65 years were retrospectively reviewed, who visited the Emergency Canter of Korea University from January, 1997 to June, 1998. Of 146 patients, 7 were excluded due to discharge against advice or transfer to the other hospitals. Parameters analysed were age, sex, mechanism of injuries, body region injured, Injury Severity Score (ISS), previous medical illness, hospital morbidity, duration of hospital stay, and cost. Each patient was classified into improved or not-improved groups depending on the outcomes, and young-old or old-old group depending on the age. The factors affecting the hospital stay in improved patients were analyzed in the parameters of previous medical illness, hospital morbidity, multiple injuries, ISS, and age. All statistical tests were conducted with two-tailed levels of 0.05. RESULTS: Of 139 patients, the mean age was 74+/-7.1 years, mean ISS 9.3+/-7.26, mean hospital stay 27+/-27.1 days. Most commonly injured body region was the extremities due to fall from a level surface. Rate of previous illness showed 0.94 medical diseases per person and were aggravated after trauma in 39 patients (60.9%). Hospital morbidity rate was 0.46 incidents per person. There were no differences in age and duration of hospital stay between the improved and the not-improved group. Substantial differences were noted in affected body region, incidence of previous illness, and hospital morbidity between the groups (p=NS). Not-improved group had higher ISS (p<0.05). ISS, previous illness and hospital morbidity affected the duration of hospital stay in the improved group. Hospital stay was 40+/-25.1 days in patients with ISS over 6 while 6+/-8.6 days in those with ISS 5 (p<0.05). Hospital stay in the improved was 26+/-26.9 days while 31+/- 24.8 days in the improved old-old group (P=NS). Hospital stay in the young-old minor trauma (ISS5) patients with previous illness and hospital morbidity was 26+/-10.1 days while 4+/-7.3 days in those without previous illness and hospital morbidity (p<0.05). CONCLUSION: Previous medical illness and hospital morbidity, not age, are predictive of outcomes of geriatric trauma patients with respect to hospital stay. As most of the hospital morbidity was a trauma-induced aggravation of previous medical illness and hospital morbidity contributing poor outcomes can be potentially avoidable, routine aggressive care far the geriatric trauma patients with previous medical illnesses is needed.
