Objective To explore the clinical outcome of self-designed composite external fixator in the treatment of severely comminuted or open proximal tibial fractures. Methods From July 2000 to January 2003, 22 cases of severely comminuted or open proximal tibial fractures were treated by self-designed composite external fixators, which involved 15 males and 7 females with an average age of 43 years (range, 20-80 years). This technique consisted of indirect reduction and limited open cannulated screw or K-wires fixation in case of necessity. Results All the patients had achieved fracture union at the 5th month averagely after operation. The period of follow-up was from 6-21 months(mean, 11 months). The mean duration of external fixation was 4.5 months. 4 cases received bone autograft from the iliac crest, primary union occurred in 20 cases, 2 cases with delayed union healed after bone-grafting. No infection occurred in 6 cases with open fracture. The other 16 cases also had no infection or skin necrosis. Only 4 cases with pin track infection healed by dressing change. 19 cases had knee flexion beyond 90?(containing 3 cases with second-stage knee release), 2 was 60? and 1 was 45?. 1 case took NSAIDs intermittently because of traumatic arthritis. According to Merchant grade, 14 were evaluated as excellent, 3 as good, 3 as fair and 2 as poor. The rate of excellent and good results was 77.3%. Conclusion The composite external fixator in treating the severely comminuted or open proximal tibial fracture has the following advantages, such as less-invasion, stable fixation, early-mobilization, high union rate and fewer complication.

OBJECTIVE: To discuss the diagnosis and treatment method in children with mass in subglottic. METHOD: There were totally 35 patients with subglottic mass who complained with dyspnea in our department. All the patients got electronic laryngoscopy examination in order to get the preliminary judgment of the mass' property. Then they accepted ultrasound and CT scan to make the definite diagnosis. The patients with subglottic hemangioma accepted oral propranolol or intralesional Pingyangmycin injection. The other type of masses got the laryngoscope CO2 laser tumor resection. RESULT: There were 31 patients with subglottic hemangiomas, 2 patients with subglottic cysts, 1 patient with subglottic fibroma, 1 patient with subglottic granuloma. The substantial follow-up time was from 1 month to 3 years. 25 patients with subglottic hemangiomas were cured, 6 patients got improvement. The patients with non-hemangiomas were all cured. CONCLUSION There was a high incidence of hemangioma in children with subglottic mass. We suggested making a diagnosis by doing electronic laryngoscopy, ultrasound and CT scan step by step. Oral propranolol was a safe and effective method in treating subglottic hemangioma. For the patients with non-hemangiomas, we considered the laryngoscope CO2 laser tumor resection as the first choice of treatment.

Objective To investigate the expression and significance of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) in the retinal neovascularization by metabolic acidosis in newborn rats. Methods One hundred and twenty newborn SD rats were randomly divided into acidosis (experiment) and normoxia (control) groups. A total of 60 newborn rats in experiment group underwent tubal feeding day for 6 days and followed by a period of recovery. The rats in the two groups were sacrificed at the 3rd, 5th, 8th, 10th, 13th and 20th day after birth, respectively. The morphologic changes of retinal vessels were estimated by observing the vascular pattern in adenosine diphosphatase stained retina flat mounts. The newborn vessels were quantified by HE staining. Immunohistochemical method was used to detect HIF-1α expression. Results In experiment group, numerous neovascularization and un-perfused area at the periphery of vessels occurred on the 10th day. The result of HE staining showed that in experiment group of 10-day old,the number of neovascular nuclei extending into the vireo was 28.78±7.53, and that of the control group was 1.22±1.48 (t=11.169,P<0.01). The results of immunohistochemistry revealed that the expression of HIF-1α protein were stronger in the experiment group than in the control group on the 8th, 10th and 13th day, and there were significant differences between the two groups (108.87±15.21, 183.68±26.58 and 129.42±9.85 vs 74.98±4.50, 76.38± 3.38 and 74.78±1.86, t=4.625, 9.023 and 9.672,P<0.05). Conclusions HIF-lα might play an important role in retinal neovascularization.
