OBJECTIVETo study clinical effects of inversive LISS (less invasive stabilization system, LISS) plate combined with steel wire for the treatment of Seinsheimer type V subtrochanteric femoral fractures.
METHODSFrom January 2009 to Janurary 2012, 11 patients with Seinsheimer type V subtrochanteric femoral fractures were treated with inversive LISS plate combined with steel wire, including 8 males and 3 females, ranging in age from 35 to 61 years old (averaged, 51 years old). Causes of injury: 8 patients caused by accident and 3 patients caused by falling down. According to X-ray examination, all the patients were type V subtrochanteric femoral fractures and were treated with LISS plate combined with steel wire. Merle d'Aubigne scores were used to evaluate therapeutic effects on hip.
RESULTSThe mean period of follow-up was 16 months (ranged, 12 to 28 months). All the patients obtained bone union for average 3.8 months (ranged from 3 to 4.3 months). There were no complications such as deep infection,deep vein thrombosis, pulmonary embolism and bone nonunion. According to Merle d'Aubigne scores, 7 patients got an excellent result and 4 good.
CONCLUSIONInversive LISS plate combined with steel wire for the treatment of Seinsheimer type V subtrochanteric femoral fractures is satisfactory, Which can provide stable fixation for fracture end and provide an ideal internal fixation method for treatment of this kind of fractures in the future.

Background The test for visual acuity is the conventional standard for evaluating visual quality.However,there is little correlation between visual acuity and visual disability.Therefore,other clinical observations such as contrast sensitivity or straylight have been used in the clinical assessment of visual quality after cataract surgery.Objective This study was to examine the change in the amount of straylight in cataractous eyes and to evaluate the correlation of the types of cataract with visual quality.Methods A non-randomized case-controlled study was designed.Eighty eyes of 40 patients with age-related cataract were enrolled in this study,including 22 eyes with hard nucleus cataract,19 eyes with cortical cataract,23 eyes with mixed cataract and 16 eyes with posterior subcapsular cataract diagnosed based on the criteria from Lens Opacities Classification System Ⅲ(LOCS Ⅲ).The values for straylight and best corrected visual acuity (BCVA) were measured with the C-quant straylight meter and Snellen chart,respectively.The differences in the straylight values among the different types of cataract were analyzed,and the correlation of the straylight value with age or BCVA was assessed.Forty eyes of 40 age-matched normal people served as controls.Results Examination was completed in sixty-two eyes of 31 patients in the cataract group at a completion rate of 77.5%,and all the subjects in the control group finished the examination at a rate of 100%.The mean straylight value was (2.06±0.88) log in the cataract group and (1.96±0.42) log in the control group,showing a significant difference between them (t =3.251,P<0.01).The respective mean C-quant measurements for hard nucleus cataract,cortical cataract,nuclear-cortical cataract and posterior subcapsular cataract patients were (1.96±0.42) log,(1.91 ±0.16) log,(2.05 ±0.19) log and (2.48 ±0.66) log,respectively,with a significant difference among these four groups (F =2.156,P =0.019).The highest straylight value was detected in the posterior subcapsular cataract group.The straylight value was enlarged with the increase of age with a regression equation of Y=0.0010X+ 1.025 in the hard nucleus cataract group (r =0.455,P < 0.05).In addition,the negative linear correlation was found between the straylight value and BCVA in both the hard nucleus cataract group and cortical cataract group (r=-0.590,-0.697,P<0.01).However,no correlation was found in the mixed cataract group and posterior subcapsular cataract group (r =-0.240,-0.235,P>0.05).Conclusions The C-quant straylight meter can objectively reflect the visual function for hard nucleus and cortical cataractous eye.Posterior subcapsular cataract produces straylight and exerts a great influence on visual quality due to early glare sensation,so it should be benefit to perform surgery earlier.
