In the treament of the non-union or delayed union of the long bone, it is very difficult to achieve union. We have experienced 15 cases of non-union or delayed union of the tibia who were treated by sliding inlay bone graft with cancellous chip bone graft from June, 1979 to April, 1984. The results were as follows: l. In all cases cancellous iliac bone graft were performed, and additionally internal fixation or simple cast immobilization were done for stabilization of the fracture site. 2. The average bone union time was 2.8 months in delayed union and 4.4 months in non-union. 3. 1n 5 failed cases there were reactivation of previous infections. 4. In 5 cases of postoperative infection, sliding grafts were sequestrated in all. 5. The advantage of this procedure in the cases without infection were: 1) In the anteromedial cortex of tibia, such a surgical intervention permits easy skin closure and prevents skin necrosis. 2) Such a procedure can recanalize the obliterated medullary cavity without disturbance of the fracture ends during operation. 6. This procedure was proved to be one of valuable adjuvant method in the treatment of uninfected non or delayed union of the tibiae.

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to identify the effects of a multifaceted needlestick injury (NSI) prevention program on changes in knowledge about bloodborne infectious diseases and postexposure coping, attitudes toward postexposure reporting, preventive measures, the number of NSIs, and postexposure reporting pre- and post-intervention among nurses. METHODS: A total of 429 and 420 nurses participated in the pre- and post-intervention periods, respectively. The intervention was performed from April to September 2007, comprising NSI guideline education, the use of containers with enhanced engineering, and the supply of safety devices. RESULTS: The average score of knowledge about bloodborne infectious diseases increased significantly from 8.3 to 8.9 out of 14 points (P<0.001), but the change in score of knowledge about postexposure coping was insignificant. The average score of attitude toward postexposure reporting increased significantly from 8.9 to 9.6 out of 12 points (P<0.001). Preventive measures such as "gloves are provided whenever needed" (P<0.001), "use one-hand technique" (P<0.001), and "needle containers are provided whenever needed" (P=0.031) increased significantly. The number of NSIs decreased by 40.4%, and the postexposure reporting rate increased by 552.8%. CONCLUSION: The multifaceted NSI prevention program positively affected knowledge about infectious diseases and postexposure coping, attitudes toward postexposure reporting, preventive measures, the number of NSIs, and postexposure reporting after intervention. Therefore, we recommend that this program be applied to various healthcare workers in hospitals.

7.Perforation of idiopathic small bowel ulceration after blunt abdominal trauma in a child: a Case Report.

Idiopathic small bowel ulceration occurring beyond the duodenum is rare, and less than 5% of all the reported cases have occurred in children. In most of the cases, single ulcer of unknown cause is observed in jejunum or ileum. The diagnosis is difficult and usually made at the time of surgical exploration for the complications, such as perforation, hemorrhage or obstruction. We experienced a case of perforation of idiopathic ileal ulceration due to blunt abdominal trauma in a 11-year-old boy. The ileal segment including the lesion was resected and the pathologic findings were compatible with idiopathic small bowel ulceration. The clinical and pathological aspects are discussed, and the literatures were reviewed.

Microsurgical reconstruction is necessary for children to correct severe trauma and congenital or acuqired deformity. The aim of this study was to evaluate whether or not microsurgical reconstruction is a safe and reliable operation in children and to analyze the differences of microsurgical reconstruction in children compared to adults. The study included 12 children who underwent 13 microsurgical reconstructions among a total of 251 cases of microsurgical reconstruction from May, 1986 to August, 1998. Their ages ranged from 24 months to 14 years and 8 months. There were 7 males and 6 females. The involved sites were 9 legs, 3 hands and 1 face. The causes of microsurgical reconstruction were 9 traumas, 2 congenital anomalies, 1 acquired deformity and 1 cancer. The applied flaps were 4 scapular flaps, 2 rectus abdominis muscle flaps, 1 de-epithelized groin flap, 1 lateral arm flap, 1 forearm tendocutaneous flap, 1 forearm tendocutaneous flap, 1 latissimus dorsi muscle flap, 1 fibula flap, 1 second toe transfer, and 1 wrap-around flap. All patients have had normal growth of the donor and recipient sites without specific complications during an average 2 years follow-up. We concluded that microvascular reconstruction is a very useful and reliable procedure in children if it is performed in consideration of each child's specific characteristics and conditions.
