Objective To investigate surgical outcomes of anterolateral plus posteromedial approaches for treatment of complex tibial plateau fractures.Methods We reviewed 68 patients with tibial plateau fractures of Schatzker types Ⅴ and Ⅵ who had been treated from January 2008 to December 2011 and fully followed up in our department.They were 42 men and 26 women,22 to 64 years of age (average,42.3 years).Fractures occurred at the left side in 24 cases and at the right side in 44 cases.Intervals between injury and operation ranged from 3 to 15 days,7.4 days on average.All of them were operated on through anterolateral plus posteromedial approaches.T-or L-shaped steel plates were used laterally while reconstruction plates or T-shaped plates for distal radius were used medially.Results In this cohort the operation time averaged 3.13 hours,intraoperative blood loss 562.7 mL and hospital stay 20.4 days.All cases were followed up for an average of 18.8 months (range,12 to 38 months).Fractures healed from 4 to 8 months,6.7 months on average.The average tibial plateau angle,posterior slope angle and femorotibial angle immediately postoperation were respectively 87.3°± 1.5°,12.0°± 2.5° and 170.0°± 2.5°,not significantly different from those at one year postoperation (86.8° ± 1.2°,13.0° ± 1.8° and 171.0° ± 1.7°) (P ＞ 0.05).According to The Hospital for Special Surgery Score,the outcomes were excellent in 36 cases,good in 24 cases,fair in 6 cases and poor in 2 cases,with a good to excellent rate of 88.2％.No neural or vascular injury,deep infection,or implant failure was found in this group.Conclusion Anterolateral plus posteromedial approaches are effective for complex tibial plateau fractures,leading to anatomic reduction,stable fixation and early functional rehabilitation.

Objective To evaluate the outcome of posterolateral approach to the fibula for trimalleolar fractures,especially the fracture in posterior malleolus.Methods Thirty-two patients with trimalleolar fractures treated via posterolateral transmalleolar approach from July 2006 to July 2011 were analyzed retrospectively.All underwent open reduction and internal fixation,including 22 Lauge-Hansen grade Ⅳ supination-external rotation ankle fractures and 10 Lauge-Hansen grade Ⅳ pronation-extemal rotation ankle fractures.Results All fractures had bone union after the follow-up of average 15.5 months (range,12-18 months).Average American Orthopedic Foot & Ankle Society (AOFAS) score was 90.75points,suggesting an excellent result.Kellgren grading system for posttraumatic arthritis severity was grade 0 in eight patients,grade Ⅰ in 18,grade Ⅱ in five,and grade Ⅲ in one,which turned out to be satisfactory.Conclusions Posterolateral approach to the fibula for trimalleolar fractures allows direct reduction and fixation of posterior malleolus fragment in treatment of trimalleolar factures and the clinical outcome is satisfactory.Moreover,the approach deserves clinical practice.

ObjectiveTo explore the biological features of colorectal adenoma with chicken-skin mucosa ( CSM ) and its clinical significance.MethodsExpression of cell proliferation markers ( Ki-67 and COX-2) and apoptosis-related factors ( survivin and caspase-3) in normal colorectal mucosa,colorectal adenoma without CSM,colorectal adenoma with CSM and colorectal adenocarcinoma were detected by immunohistochemistry SP method and enzyme-linked immunosorbent assay (ELISA).ResultsImmunohistochemical results revealed a decreased trend in expressions of Ki-67 and COX-2 from colorectal adenocarcinoma through colorectal adenoma with and without CSM to normal colorectal mucosa,while the expressions of survivin and caspase-3 showed an increased trend.By ELISA,the expressions of Ki-67,COX-2,surviving and caspase-3 showed no significant difference (P ＞ 0.05 ) between colorectal adenoma with CSM and coloreetal adenocarcima,while these variables were significantly different (P ＜ 0.05) between coloreetal adenoma with and without CSM,so as well between normal colorectal mucosa and other 3 groups.ConclusionThe biological characteristics of colorectal adenoma with CSM are different from those without,showing an activated cell proliferation and inhibited cell apoptosis with increased carcinogenesis risk.

Objective To discuss methods and clinical efficacy of patients treated with arthrolysis for posttraumatic elbow stiffness with heterotopic ossification.Methods The study involved 16 patients with posttraumatic elbow stiffness combined with heterotopic ossification treated by arthrolysis between June 2007 and June 2011.There were 11 males and 5 females,at average age of 29.6 years (range,18-53 years).Time from injury to surgery averaged 10.7 months (range,8-14 months).Other than medial approach for only one patient,the rest adopted medial to lateral approaches to have a complete clearance of periarticular heterotopic ossification tissue and hyperplastic tissue as well as partial resection of articular capsules and ligaments.Besides,seven patients were fixed using hinged external fixators.After surgery,three weeks of oral celecoxib was given for the patients.Rehabilitation was started immediately after operation.Range of motion (ROM) of the elbow and Mayo elbow pcrformance score (MEPS) were used to determine clinical results.Results All patients were followed up for 8-17 months (mean 13.4 months).ROM of the elbow (extension lag,flexion,pronation and supination)showed an improvement from (45.2-3.5)° to (27.2 ±8.4)°,(68.1-11.8)° to (106.8 ± 16.4)°,(55.8 ± 8.2) ° to (80.5 ± 3.3) °,and (53.7 ± 6.3) ° to (83.1 ± 5.3) ° respectively (P ＜ 0.01).MEPS increased from (46.8 ±7.0) points to (83.2 ±9.4) points after operation (P ＜0.01).According to MEPS criterion,the results were excellent in seven patients,good in five and fair in four.Conclusion With respect to posttraumatic elbow stiffness with heterotopic ossification,satisfactory therapeutic results can be achieved by thorough preoperative evaluation,strict control of surgical indications,appropriate selection of intraoperative techniques and early systematic rehabilitation.

Objective To explore the applicable conditions for using urine plutonium monitoring data to assess personal internal doses,in order to provide references for the occupational health management and the urine plutonium monitoring in nuclear sector.Methods Using some plutonium mixtures from DOE nuclear facilities,as an example,the urine plutonium levels were estimated through simulation calculation at 1 mSv effective dose arising from either acute or chronic inhalation of plutonium compounds,respectively.The results were compared with the typical detection limit of radiochemical separation and α-spectrometry.The feasibility of urine plutonium monitoring for dose assessment of internal radiation exposure was discussed.Results Only for type M plutonium compunds,1 mSv detection limit can be achieved using radiochemical separation and α-spectrometry within 10 d after inhalation.Conclusions Before the monitoring plan of urine plutonium is made,detection limits of monitoring method should be considered.Internal dose could be accessed using workplace air monitoring and working hours when necessary.

OBJECTIVE: To explore the clinical characteristics of infectious mononucleosis (IM) in adults. METHOD: Medical records of 50 adult IM patients admitted in hospital were analyzed retrospectively. RESULT: Diagnosis delayed group contained 16 patients (32% of total patients) and was significantly different from the diagnosis in-time group in typical symptoms, signs and laboratory findings of IM. CONCLUSION The clinical manifestations of adult IM are rather complicated and nonspecific to diagnosis. History collection and physical examination in detail are helpful for early diagnosis.

Objective:To evaluate the feasibility of the "task-based" teaching mode in dose measurement of tumor radiotherapy to develop the independent practical ability of students.Methods:Twenty-one undergraduate students majoring in radiotherapy dosimetry were randomly divided into experimental group ( n=11) and control group ( n=10). The "task-based" teaching mode based on independent learning, thinking and designing was used in the experimental group, while the traditional teaching mode based on the guidance of teachers was applied in the control group. Then the practical examination of students was carried out through the case of measuring the absorbed dose of accelerator electron beam. The practical ability of the two groups of students was scored and compared by the objective and comprehensive scoring criteria. Results:The scores of each practical step and total score in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group ( P<0.05). The average total scores of the two groups were (90.18±1.97) and (83.70±3.68), respectively. Conclusion:The "task-based" practice teaching mode can improve students' ability of completing radiotherapy dose measurement independently.

A classical Monteggia fracture is defined as an ulnar fracture with dislocation of the proximal radioulnar joints. If combined with posterior dislocation of the radial head (posterior dislocation of the radiocapitellar joints), it is called a posterior Monteggia fracture. And for those without dislocation of the proximal radioulnar joints, it should not be defined as the posterior Monteggia fracture, but as the posterior dislocation of the proximal ulna fracture. For dislocation of the proximal radioulnar joints, the Monteggia fractures, clinical are relatively rare. The coronoid process fracture is comminuted, the proximal radioulnar joints are destroyed, the membrane and the annular ligament is injured. After restoring osseous structure and repairing the lateral ligament complex, we must also pay attention to the stability of proximal radioulnar joints, and the prognostic efficacy not sure. However, posterior dislocation of proximal ulna fractures is relatively common in clinical practice, and the coronal process fracture is usually complete, with the annular ligament and interosseous membrane intact. In treatment, the bone structure is mainly restored, and the lateral ligament complex of elbow joint is treated at the same time, with good prognosis. Through anatomical basis, imaging characteristics, injury characteristics, treatment and prognosis, we can distinguish with the posterior Monteggia fracture and posterior dislocation of proximal ulna fracture.
