Allografts or autografts of bone-tendon unit have been used for ligament injuries or deficiencies after limb salvage operation for malignant bone tumors around joints. While the remodeling process of the ligament or tendon of the allograftor autograft and the microscopic and biomechanical changes of tendon-bone graft interface have been widely investigated, little is known about the ultrastructural and biochemical changes of the transitionall zone in tendon-bone junction. This study was performed to analyzed the ultrastructural and biochemical changes of the transitional zone after tendon-bone auto-and allo-grafting. A total of twenty four rabbits were divided into two group. In 12 animals(allograft group), two Achilles ten-don-bone unit per each animal were taken and transplanted to another rabbit after preservation below -70degrees C for 2 weeks. In the other 12 animals(autograft group), the Achilles tendon-bone unit was harvested from one side and transplanted to the other side of the rabbit. After operation, their legs were immobilized with short leg cast for 4 weeks, and then mobilized freely. Four animals in each group were sacrificed at four, eight and sixteen-weeks after the transplantation, and their grafted Achilles tendon-bone interfaces were used for analysis of the ultrasturctural and biochemical changes. The following results were obtained. 1. Histologically new cartilage cells were observed at postoperative 16 weeks with local presence of faint tidemark in the autograft group but not in the allograft group. Complete remodeling of the transitional zone had not observed histologically in both groups. 2. Ultrasturctural analysis revealed no definite differences between both groups. However, the slightly rapid appearance of parallelism and cross-striation of microfibrils in the autograft group and time-related restoration of fibers and fibroblasts were observed. 3. From biochemical analysis, type I collagen concentratin was increased, and an early rapid increase of type III collagen and glycosaminoglycan were also observed. In conclusion, these data suggested that type III collagen and glycosaminoglycan are important in stabilization of grafted tendon-bone unit, especially in the transitional zone. The histological and biochemical changes in allograft group were relatively similar to that of autograft group although the allograft group showed the delayed pattern of remodeling. Therefore, the tendon- allograft could be used as a good substitute for the autograft for tendon or ligament reconstruction when no suitable autograft is available.

Osteoid osteoma is a relatively common benign tumor that most commonly affect the cortex of the long bone, Adolescent and young adult males are most frequently affected. It causes aching pain that worsens at night and commonly is relieved by aspirin. The typical radiographic appearance is a lucent nidus with surrounding dense cortical thickening. If the lesion is located in intra-articular cancellous bone, an osteoid osteoma may present with clinical findings that are more indicative of an inflammatory synovitis, and with atypical radiographic findings such as lack of both surrounding sclerosis and a lucent nidus. Therefore intra-articular osteoid osteoma may pose a diagnostic difficulty. Recently, we experienced 3 cases of intra-articular osteoid osteoma(2 humeral haed, 1 femoral head) and present them in detail.

Purpose: To evaluate the risk factors for the development of osteonecrosis in civilian professional divers by an epidemiologic study and to determine the correlation between osteonecrosis in divers and coagulopathy by analysis of serologic markers that are related to thrombophilia and hypofibrinolysis. Materials and Methods: Forty-two divers, who collected pen shells (Atrina pinnata), and among whom 10 had osteonecrosis (group 1), were compared with 32 divers without osteonecrosis (group 2). Both groups were evaluated based on the number of years of diving experience, number of dives per year, mean number of dives per day, mean diving time and depth, and diving methods. We determined any statistically significant differences among these variables. We measured the levels of serologic markers that were related to hyperlipidemia, thrombophilia, and hypofibrinolysis from the divers and a control group of 20 physicians (group 3). The levels of the serologic markers were compared between groups 1 and 2 and between the divers and the control group, in order to determine the relationship between the serologic markers and the development of dysbaric osteonecrosis. Results: None of the variables demonstrated any statistically significant differences, except for the mean diving time, in which group 1 had a mean diving time of 124 minutes and group 2 had a mean diving time of 62.1 minutes (P<0.05). In the analysis of the serologic markers, there were no statistically significant differences between groups 1 and 2; however, in comparison with the group 3, the divers demonstrated significantly decreased activity levels of proteins C and S (Protein C: P<0.05; Protein S: P<0.05), and an increase in the levels of plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1) (P<0.05). Conclusion: The divers with osteonecrosis had a longer mean diving time than did those divers without osteonecrosis. In the serologic marker analysis, the divers with osteonecrosis demonstrated significantly decreased activity levels of Proteins C, S and a significant increase in the levels of PAI-1, compared with the control group.

STUDY DESIGN: The authors reviewed 14 patients with neurologic deficits caused by ossification of ligamentum flavum(OLF) of thoracic and thoracolumbar spine. OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the clinical and roentgenographic characteristics and suggest the treatment method of the OLF in the thoracic and thoracolumbar spine. SUMMARY OF LITERATURE REVIEW: The reported OLF mainly developed at the thoracolumbar area. It compressed the spinal cord and resulted to the symptoms of thoracic myelopathy. The methods of treatment were posterior decompression including laminectomy or laminoplasty, and sometimes anterior and posterior decompression, with or without fusion. The OLF was not common disease yet and many surgeons have met a problem in making the decision of the extent of posterior decompression multiple or selective. METHODS: The authors reviewed 14 patients with the OLF using clinical reports and roentgenographic studies. We checked the plain roentgenograms, computed tomograms, and magnetic resonance imagings. We performed the posterior decompression using total laminectomy without fusion. We divided three groups according to the operative methods. Group I included the patients with one or two levels of OLF treated with posterior extensive laminectomy. Group II included the patients with OLF in three or more levels, or combined other cord-compressing diseases. They had been treated with multiple posterior or anterior decompression for the entire cord-compressing levels. Group III included the patients with same conditions as group II but they had been treated with selective decompression for the mainly symptomatic levels of OLF. RESULTS: We found the OLF at 54 segments of 14 patients. The involvement of OLF was 29 segments(53.7%) in thoracolumbar and 25 segments(46.3%) in thoracic area. The most commonly involved segment was T10-11(16.7%) and the second was T11-12(14.8%). Clinically the most common neurologic deficit was motor weakness and sensory deficit. The most symptomatic level of OLF was T10-11 and T12-Ll segment(28.6% at each) and the next was T11-12 segment(21.4%). We got the favorable results in group I and group III. But the final results of group II were not good. CONCLUSION: The OLF was most common at the thoracolumbar area and the symptoms and signs were revealed same as those of the thoracic myelopathy. We obtained favorable clinical results after posterior laminectomy without fusion in cases with the OLF in 1-2 segments. In the cases with multiple OLF in three or more segments, or the cases with other cord-compressing diseases, we could get more favorable results in the patients with the selective decompression than the patients with multiple decompression for the entire cord-compressing diseases.

Journal of Korean Society of Spine Surgery 2007;14(4):229-234
STUDY DESIGN: A retrospective study OBJECTIVES: To evaluate postoperative muscle damage after microendoscopic discectomy (MED) and open discectomy (OD), using analysis of serum creatine phosphokinase (CPK) levels. SUMMARY OF LITERATURE REVIEW: Paravertebral muscle damage after retraction during posterior lumbar surgery can cause postoperative back pain. Serum CPK level is elevated in these patients and may indicate postoperative muscle damage. MATERIALS AND METHODS: We examined 35 cases with MED (group 1) and 11 cases with OD (group 2). Serum CPK levels were checked preoperatively and postoperatively at day 1 and day 3. We analyzed intra-group and inter-group differences in CPK levels according to sex, age, and operation time. Surgical outcomes were evaluated with a visual analog scale (VAS) preoperatively and 1 year postoperatively. RESULTS: CPK levels at postoperative 1 day were increased significantly and decreased significantly at postoperative 3 day in both groups (p<0.05), with levels in group 1 significantly lower than in group 2 (p<0.05). There were no differences in CPK levels according to sex, age, or operation time, except between the 3rd and 5th decades of age at postoperative 1 day in group 2. VAS was significantly different in intra-group analysis (p<0.05) with no significant differences in intergroup analysis. CONCLUSIONS: MED induced a lower increase in serum CPK than OD with similar VAS outcomes. MED results in less postoperative muscle damage than OD, with similar surgical outcomes.
