Objective To summarize the clinical results of treatment of tibia plateau fracture. Methods Forty-six cases of tibial plateau fractures were treated with operation from Oct. 2007 to Oct. 20l2 in General Hospital of PinGdinGshan Coal Industry Groud. AccordinG to Schatzker classification,6 cases were typeⅠ,8 were type Ⅱ,6 were type Ⅲ,4 were type Ⅳ,l2 were type Ⅴ,and l0 were type Ⅵ. Patients in type Ⅰwere treated with open reduction and fixation with screws,other types were treated with open reduction and internal fixation combined with anatomy or lockinG plates and screws. And bone Grafts were used when severe bone defect after reduction. Results Forty-six cases were followed up from 6 months to l8 months( averaGe 8. 5 months ) . AccordinG to the Rasmussen knee score standard,the satisfactory rate was 89. l%( 4l/46 ). Conclusion Different methods of operative treatment of tibia plateau fracture is recommended accordinG to the type of fractures,quality of the bone and the combination of injury. Soft tissue protection should always be kept in mind durinG operation. Delayed operation,Good restitution and fixation,early exercise of joint and late weiGht loadinG are the key factors in the treatment of tibial plateau fracture.

Objective To explore the therapeutic effect of two-stage delayed open reduction and internal fixation on Pilon fractures.Methods The clinical data of 38 patients with type Ⅱ and type Ⅲ Pilon fracture were analyzed retrospectively.According to the Ruedi-Allgower classification,there were 18 cases with type Ⅱand 20 cases with type Ⅲ fracture.All patients underwent temporary fixation with calcaneal traction or external fixation for 7 to 17 days,and then they were treated with delayed surgery when the soft tissue injuries subsided.Results Follow-up was performed for 10 to 18 months.Based on the Mazur classification,the ankle function in 12 cases was excellent,18 cases as good,6 cases as fair and 2 cases as poor,with a satisfactory rate of 78.9％.Conclusion Two-stage delayed open reduction and internal fixation is a reasonable and effective procedure in treating type Ⅱ and type Ⅲ Pilon fractures with advantages of few complications and satisfactory ankle function.

Objective Aiming at the clinical problem of the low matching degree with the patient’s anatomical morphology for traditional cervical fusion cage, a cervical fusion cage with the function of adjustable height and the shape matched with the vertebral body was established, and its biomechanical properties were evaluated. Methods A cervical C4-5 segment fusion model was established according to anterior cervical discectomy and fusion (ACDF), so as to simulate different motion conditions, i.e. anterior flexion, posterior extension, left/right lateral flexion, left/right rotation, and stress of the fusion cage and vertebral endplate was calculated. After three-dimensional (3D) printing of the fusion cage, an in vitro mechanical experiment was conducted to explore safety and stability of the fusion cage. ResultsThe fusion cage could keep the range of motion (ROM) of cervical vertebrae at the fusion segment with 1°-2.8° and reduce the ROM to 40%-80% of the natural segment. In the in vitro compression test, the yield load of the fusion cage was (2 721.67±209) N, which met the maximum demand of the physiological load in service state. Conclusions The designed fusion device with adjustable height shows better biomechanical properties and can reduce the selection step in operation.
