Chinese Journal of Trauma 2008;24(4):263-265
Objective To explore the treatment method and clinical effect of LARS artificial ligament in treatment of combined anterior cruciate ligament(ACL) and posterior crueiate ligament (PCL) injuries of the knee under arthroscope. Methods Thirteen cases of ACL and PCL injuries were reconstructed with LARS ligament. The patients were followed up for 12-36 months. The International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) and Lysholm knee score scale were used for functional evaluation. In the meantime, KT-1000 was employed to check anterior and posterior laxation of the knee. Results No knee infection or limitation of knee extension occurred. Knee flexion was 105° -125° (average 117°). At termination of follow up, 10 cases (77%) was graded as A and 3 (23%) as B according to IKDC. KT-1000 examination at 25° flexion showed that the difference of anterior laxation was less than 2 mm in 12 cases and 3-5mm in 1. KT-1000 examination at 70°flexion showed that the difference of anterior laxation was less than 2mm in 12 cases and 2-4 mm in 1. The Lysholm score was (63.8±2.9) points (49459 points) before operation and (91.1 ±2.7) points (88-95 points) at follow up, with statistical difference (P <0.01). Conclusion Reconstruction of ACL and PCL by using LARS ligament under arthroscope is a kind of minimally invasive, safe and effective method to treat ACL and PCL injuries of the knee, with good short term outcome.
2.Advances in Physical Activity among Patients post Operation for Breast Cancer (review)
Chinese Journal of Rehabilitation Theory and Practice 2017;23(9):1021-1026
Physical activity is closely related to the quality of life of postoperative patients with breast cancer, which is expressed in fre-quency, duration, intensity, and others factors. There is no uniform measurement of physical activity, the common measurements may be classified as subjective and objective, such as exercise log, physical activity questionnaire and self-reported physical activities of the former;doubly labeled water, indirect calorimetry, motion sensors and heart rate monitors of the latter. The age, educational level, social and eco-nomic status, and body mass index are related to the level of physical activity in patients post operation for breast cancer, while illness and treatment, psychological and social support, and health-related quality of life also affect the level of physical activity, which suggest that such patients need to improve their physical activity before operation.

Objective To introduce the Bernese periacetabular osteotomy through ilioinguinal approach for the treatment of adult acetabular dysplasia. Methods From October 1997 to April 2001, 51 patients(53 hips) with acetabular dysplasia were operated upon with Bernese periacetabular osteotomies through ilioinguinal approach. The mean age of the patients at the time of surgery was 30.6 years(range, 13-48 years). Male∶female= 1∶10. Preoperatively, the average duration of the symptoms was 3.4 years(3 months to 15 years), the range of motion(ROM) of the hip was normal in most patients. Average CE angle was 1.1?(?15?-15?); the Tonnis osteoarthritis grade was Ⅰto Ⅱ. Fifty three percent of the hips had Shentons line broken. Results Twenty four hips had 12 to 38 months followed up. Most patients were pain free; the hip ROM remained normal. Harris hip score increased from 79.8(64-83) pre operatively to 93.8(75-100) post operatively. CE angle increased to 40?(20?to 60?). Shentons line broken rate decreased to 33%. The complications include: 1 femoral nerve damage, 1 bladder malfunction and 2 skin incision hernia. Conclusion The Bernese periacetabular osteotomy through ilioinguinal approach is a safe and efficient procedure for the treatment of adult acetabular dysplasia. The deformities could be easily corrected, the anatomic relations could be restored nicely, the pelvic ring and the abductor muscles are reserved. The post operative recovery is fast, and it is efficient to prevent the development of osteoarthritis of the hip joint.

Objective To evaluate the results of treatment with the high tibial osteotomy and fixtation with the new Giebel blade plate for osteoarthritis of the knee, and to discuss the indication for this technique. Methods Seventy patients(108 knees), 14 male and 56 female, with an average age of 59.6 years (range 38-76)were reviewed. The average postoperative follow up was 12 months (from 6 to 20 months ). Pain was complained chiefly in the medial aspect of the knee joint and the majority of patients had slight degree of genu varum. This new Giebel blade plate acts as a tension band when it is placed on the site for fixation, the proximal tibial fibular joint was not exposed during surgery so that the fibular head was well preserved, avoiding common peroneal nerve injury. The periosteum opposite to the incision position was left intact for the sake of the stability and acted as a hinge around which the wedge osteotomy was closed. AP and lateral radiography of knee joint was taken pre and post operation for comparison. Results During the follow up, the patients show satisfied pain relief, improvement of joint function, correction of the deformity either genu varum or valgum. Earlier rehabilitation exercise should be carried out and the complication was rare. Conclusion The characteristics of this method are its convenient application, the stable fixation and the well preserved joint function. The advantage of high tibial osteotomy was shown sufficiently by the use of Giebel blade plate.
