Objective To determine the incidence of clinically common acute avulsions of the popliteus tendon (PT) and the lateral collateral ligament (LCL) of the femur (peel-off lesion) in knees with multiple injured ligaments.Methods A retrospective review of 48 acute grade 3 posterolateral corner (PLC) knee surgeries was conducted.All office evaluations were reviewed to determine the demographic data,tear description,preoperative MRI examination,physical examination under anesthesia,intraoperative arthroscopic findings and surgical techniques.Results In total,19 patients were surgically verified as having femoral peel-off lesions as a portion of a series of multiple pathologic findings.Tear patterns were typically categorized into 3 patterns:isolated PT tear (pattern 1,4 patients),combined PT and LCL tears (pattern 2,8 patients) and complex tears (associated intrasubstance and/or fibular-based injuries,pattern 3,7 patients).Seventeen of the 19 patients underwent preoperative MRI examination,which demonstrated conclusive signs of femoral insertion separation and discontinuity in 13 patients (76%) and inconclusive signs of femoral insertion separation.Examination under anesthesia (EUA) revealed that for the 4 patients with pattern 1 injuries,the tibial external rotation increases were all greater than 10°.For the 15 patients with pattern 2 and 3 injuries,the yarus instability was as follows:grade 3 in 8 patients,grade 2 in 2,grade 1 in 1,and negative in 4.External rotation increases were greater than 10° in 12 patients and less than 10° in 3.Seventeen of the 19 patients were inspected with an arthroscope prior to PLC surgery:of these patients,94% had acute avulsion findings and positive lateral gutter drive-through sign;8 patients were repaired with recess or reattachment procedures;6 patients were primarily reconstructed;4 patients were treated with combined repair and reconstruction;and 1 patient was left untreated for secondary reconstruction due to priority repair for concurrent patellar tendon rupture.Conclusion For adequate clinical identification,we recommend a comprehensive diagnostic protocol,including MRI,physical examination and arthroscopic inspection,to avoid underdiagnosis of the lesion in multiple-ligament injured knees.The lateral gutter arthroscopic evaluation is particularly sensitive for detecting the lesion.

Objective To observe the effects of Compound Uncaria Hypotensive Tablets on expressions of MCP-1 and MMP-9 of vascular remodeling in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR); To discuss it possible mechanism of action. Methods Totally 24 12-week old male SHR were randomly divided into SHR model group, Compound Uncaria Hypotensive Tablets group, and positive medicine group, with 8 rats in each group. Another 8 WKY rats were set as normal control group. Medication groups were given relevant medicine for gavage for successive 6 weeks. Noninvasive tail cuff method was used to observe blood pressure; morphological changes in thoracic aorta and renal artery were observed by HE staining; immunohistochemistry was used to detect the protein expressions of MCP-1 and MMP-9 in thoracic aortic wall. Results Protein expressions of MCP-1 and MMP-9 in thoracic aortic wall of SHR model group were significantly higher than those of normal control group (P<0.01); Compared with the SHR model group, protein expressions of MCP-1 and MMP-9 in thoracic aortic wall decreased significantly in the medication groups (P<0.05, P<0.01); Compared the Compound Uncaria Hypotensive Tablets group and positive medicine group, there was no obvious difference in protein expressions of MCP-1 and MMP-9 in thoracic aortic wall. Conclusion Compound Uncaria Hypotensive Tablets can reduce the blood pressure of SHR, reduce inflammation reaction, and regulate vascular remodeling, which mechanism may be related to down-regulation of expressions of MCP-1 and MMP-9 in SHR aortic endothelial cells.

BACKGROUND:Airway epithelial regeneration can effectively inhibit submucosal hyperblastosis and the occurrence of obliteration. Studies demonstrated that ventilation could accelerate the regeneration of airway epithelium. OBJECTIVE:To establish and improve an orthotopic tracheal transplantation model and to further observe the effects of ventilation on trachea in alogeneic mice. METHODS:C57BL/6 mouse's tracheal served as donor, and BALB/c mouse's tracheal as recipient. This experiment contained two groups. In the experimental group, the membranous part of trachea was longitudinaly dissected in two donors and sutured into an enlarged trachea, which was implanted in the recipient. In the control group, donor's trachea was implanted into the recipient in situ. Samples were obtained and detected at 28 days after surgery. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Hematoxylin-eosin staining results demonstrated that compared with the control group, wel-differentiated ciliated epithelium was visible in the epithelial lamina of tracheal lumen, accompanying a few non-ciliated single or stratified squamous epithelium, mild submucosal fibrosis and inflammatory cel infiltration. Morphological analysis revealed that ciliated epithelial proportion in the experimental group was higher than in the control group (P < 0.05). The ratio of lamina propria to the tracheal cartilage, submucous fibrous tissuearea and the degree of lymphocyte infiltration were lower in the experimental group than in the control group (P < 0.05). Immunohistochemical staining demonstrated that the transplanted tracheal epithelium in both groups was recipient epithelial phenotype. Results verified that a modified orthotopic tracheal transplantation model was successfuly established. The increased ventilation of the tracheal alografts can accelerate the differentiation of tracheal epithelium. The wel-differentiated airway epithelium inhibited the proliferation of fibroblast.
