BACKGROUND: Compound materials have strong osteogenic ability, which reinforce the substitute materials used alone. Compound material will be commonly used to repair bone defects in tissue engineering. OBJECTIVE: To explore the osteogenic capacity of tetracycline loaded bio-derived bone in vivo. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: The randomized controlled observation was performed at Tissue Engineering Laboratory (State Key Laboratory) of West China Center of Medical Sciences, Sichuan University from September 2004 to January 2005. MATERIALS: Twenty-four New Zealand white rabbits were randomly divided into 2 groups (n=12). Rabbit models of radial middle segment defect (1.5 cm) were established. Tetracycline collagen bio-derived bone was made of fresh human bone. METHODS: The tetracycline collagen bio-derived bone was implanted into radial defects of experimental group, and collagen bio-derived bone was implanted into control group. All rabbits were executed 6 and 12 weeks after operation. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: Osteogenic condition in all specimens was examined by X-ray and histological methods. RESULTS: Twenty-four animals were included in final analysis. ①X-ray results showed that osteotylus was seen in the whole defect area of the experimental group in postoperative 6 weeks, while only in the defect ends of the control group. In 12 weeks after surgery, new bone tissue filled all defect area of the experimental group, which was basically consistent with normal bone, even medullary canal was formed. Osteogenic images were found in the control group. ②Histological results suggested that new osteoid formation was observed in internal pore zone in the experimental group in 6 weeks, while no bone tissue was found in the control group. In 12 weeks, much woven bone was seen in the experimental group, and lamellar bone structure had formed and medullary cavity of bones had transfixed. Osteoid formation was observed in the control group. CONCLUSION: Both tetracycline collagen bio-derived bone and collagen bio-derived bone can promote bone formation, but tetracycline loaded bio-derived materials show superior effect in repairing defects.

BACKGROUND: Each matrix material alone possesses the limited ability of osteogenesis, so it is a future direction of tissue engineering that apply composite materials on the repair of bone defect by enhancing osteogenesis. OBJECTIVE: To study the osteogenesis ability of collagen loaded bio-derived bone implanted in animals. DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: A random controlled animal experiment was completed in Tissue Engineering Laboratory of West China Center of Medical Sciences, Sichuan University between January and April in 2004. MATERIALS: Sixteen New Zealand white rabbits were adopted to prepare 1.5-cm segmental defect model at the middle part of radius. Human bone was extirpated from donators, and collagen Ⅰ was the product of Sigma Company. METHODS: Rabbit models were divided into 2 groups by randomization, experimental group and control group, with 8 rabbits in each group. The extirpated bone was made into pure bio-derived bone by means of defatting, decellularization and deproteinization. Collagen loaded bio-derived bone was established by the vacuum absorption of collagen on pure bio-derived bone. Collagen loaded bio-derived bone was implanted into the defects of experimental group, while pure bio-derived bone for the control group. MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: At 6 and 12 weeks after operation, all specimens were examined by X-ray and histological methods. RESULTS: The result analysis included all of 16 rabbit models. X-ray results showed that, osteotylus was seen in the whole defect area of experimental group at 12 weeks postoperatively, at this time osteogenesis was more obvious compared with 6 weeks, the bridge grafting of defect area was obviously visible. In the control group, osteotylus was only observed on two ends of the defects, no osteogenesis was found in the central part of defect area. Histological results showed that, new osteoid formation could be seen in internal porous zone of the experimental group at 6 weeks postoperatively, while in control group fibrous connective tissue filled internal porous zone and no new bone formed; at 12 weeks, much more woven bone-like tissues were visible and trabecular-like structure had formed in the experimental group, while osteoid tissue could be seen in bone defect area of control group. CONCLUSION: Both pure bio-derived bone and collagen bio-derived bone can enhance osteanagenesis, but collagen loaded bio-derived bone scaffold material is more effective.

Objective To evaluate the indications,method and prognosis of emergent hepateetomy and tran-scatheter arterial embolization(TAE) for spontaneous rupture of primary liver carcinoma(PLC). Methods Clinical data of 85 cases with PLC were analyzed. Patients were divided into four groups: the group of delayed hepatectomy (group A,n=30);the group of emergent transcatheter arterial embolization (group B,n=22);the group of emer-gent hepatectomy (group C, n=18) and the group of medical treatment (group D, n=15). The hemostasis achieve-ment ratio, operative complications, perioperative morbidity, 1-year and 3-year survival rates among the four groups were compared. Results In group A and B, celiac urteriogram in 52 cases showed that extravasation of contrast media happened in 14 cases (26.9%). The hemostasis achievement ratio was 100% (30/30, 22/22, 18/18) in group A,B and C,respectively,which was remarkably higher than that in group D(40%,6/15) (P<0.05);The in-hospital fatality was 0% (0/30),3.8% (2/52) and 16.7% (3/18),which was lower than that of group D(80.0%, 12/15) (P<0.01). The 1-year survival rate was 76.7% and 3-year survival rate of group A was 53.3%, which was higher than that of group B (45.5 % and 31.8 %) and group C (44.4% and 33.3 %) (P<0.05). The cases in group D did not survive one year(P<0.01). Conclusions Emergent hepatectomy and transcatheter arterial emboli-zation are safe and feasible for spontaneous rupture of primary hepatocellular carcinoma. For those with resectable ca-ses,surgical resection is the first choice after transcatheter arterial embolization.

Objective To evaluate the effectiveness of the suture anchor in the treatment of acute closed distal achilles tendon rupture. Methods A retrospective review of clinical data in 25 patients with acute achilles tendon rupture was performed in the department of orthopedic trauma of Tianjin Hospital between October 2012 to January 2014. The operation was performed by standard approach, with the suture anchors to reconstruct the achilles tendon insertion, and the Krachow technique was used to suture the achilles tendon. All patients were followed up for 19~35 months. The situation of the wound healing, heel pain, and achilles tendon re-rupture were observed and analyzed. According to the passive range of motion of the bilateral ankle joint, the achilles tendon total rupture score (ATRS), the American orthopaedic foot and ankle society (AOFAS) score and functional recovery were assessed one year after operation. Results The operation was successfully completed in this group. The operation time was 25-35 min, the average time was (30.4 ± 4.8) min. No major vascular and nerve injury occurred in the operation. All patients were followed up. The wound healed well. No infection and skin necrosis, no heel pain and achilles tendon re-rupture were found during follow-up. There was no significant difference in mean passive plantar flexion between injured ankles and uninjured ankles one year after operation (44.36° ± 3.33° vs. 46.40°±4.53°, P>0.05). But mean passive dorsiflexion was lower in injured ankles than that of uninjured ankles (16.88°± 4.10° vs. 20.12°±3.21°,P<0.05). The mean ATRS score was 88.7±6.1 (range 79-97), and the mean AOFAS score was 92.4± 5.6 (range 76-100) at first postoperative year. According to the AOFAS scale, the results were excellent in 20 cases and good in 5 cases. Conclusion It was successful to repair the acute closed distal achilles tendon injuries with the suture anchors.
