[Objective]To introduce a surgical technique used in the treatment of giant cell tumor of bone.[Method]Twenty-one patients were treated in our hospital from 1995 to 2003 for bone tumors of Campanacci Ⅰ~Ⅱ.All patients underwent curettage and "T" shape autologous bone transplantation and phenol.The patients were followed up for 18~24 months.[Result]Eighteen patients were healed on the basis of the duration,all knees presented no function limited.Two patients had local recurrence 8 to 10 months after the treatment.[Conclusion]For the giant cell tumor of bone around the knee,curettage and adjuvant "T" shape autologous bone transplantation is a good alternative method of reconstruction.

[Objective]To analyze the reasons of the missed and misdiagnosis of popliteal artery injury associated with knee dislocations, so that the patients can be diagnosed as early as possible.Amputation can be avoided.[Method]Twelve patients admitted in our hospital 1998～2003 who were misdiagnosed in other hospitals.Five patients had compound injured.The misdiagnosis time was 8～50 hours,meaned 22.6 hours.Five patients had an arteriogram after registes,one of them was recanalizated in radiology department.Other 6 patients were oqerated with saphenous vein bypass grafting,2 patients were anastomosed the end to the end and 3 patients were amputated directly.[Result]Three patients were healed completely,2 patients remained ischemic symptoms,4 patients were operated again with amputation.[Conclusion]There are four reasons for the missed and misdiagnosis:a.The doctors were not familiar with the anatomy of the popliteal artery;b.The knee was automatically reduction in the process of transmitting.There was no deformity when arriving at the hospital;c.The patients were severely injuried and the knee dislocations was ignored.d.The physical examination was not carefully done.

Background Treatment of corneal ulceration by transplanting drug-loaded amniotic membrane has been used widespreadly abroad,however,seldom study is found in China up to now.Objective This study was to explore the sustained release property and the efficacy of the drug-loaded amniotic membrane.Methods The bacteriostatic area of amniotic membrane fragments immersed with different concentrations (5,20,30 g/L) of levofloxacin for different time points (5,15,30,60 minutes) was evaluated by in vitro test.Bacterial corneal ulceration models were established in 20 rabbits by injected 0.7 MCF staphylococcus aureus suspension (0.1 ml) into the central corneal stroma to form the cloudy area of 4.0-6.0 mm.Then the rabbits were randomized into two groups.Regular amniotic membrane transplantation was performed laterally and 0.5％ levofloxacin drops was topically administered after operation in the amnion+levofloxacin drops group,and drug-loading amnion transplantation was used in the drug-loading amnion group.Aqueous humor of 0.1 ml was collected in 30 minutes,1 hour,2,3.5,5.5 hours after levofloxacin was administered and 1 day,3,7,10,14,21 days after operation for the detect of levofloxacin level with high-performance liquid chromatography.The corneal symptom was scored based on McNeill's criteria in 1 week,2 weeks and 4 weeks and the ulceration area was assessed under the slit lamp in the first week.The pathological examination was carried out in the fourth week after surgery.Results The mean bacteriostatic area was bigger with the increase of levofloxacin concentration,and bacteriostatic area in amnion immersed for 15 minutes was bigger than that of 5 minutes (P＜0.01).The levofloxacin concentration of aqueous humor after transplantation was decreased by extending the time,and that in 30 minutes and 5.5 hours after operation was (0.873±0.264) mg/L and (0.106±0.027) mg/L,respectively,in the amnion+levofloxacin drops group,and that in day 1,3,7 after surgery in the drug-loading amnion group was higher than at 30 minutes in the amnion+levofloxacin drops group,showing all significant differences (all P =0.00).In the first,second and fourth week after operation,the corneal symptom score was 1.7±0.6,1.3±0.5,0.2±0.4 in the drug-loading amnion group and 2.2±0.8,2.0±0.6,1.5±0.8 in the amnion+ levofloxacin drops group,with the significant differences among the different groups and time points (Fgroup =9.49,P =0.01 ;Ftime =22.96,P=0.01).The corneal ulceration area was (1.6±0.6) mm2 in the drug-loading amnion group and (3.2±0.8) mm2 in the amnion+levofloxacin drops group 1 week after operation,showing a significant difference between them (t =3.98,P =0.00).Histopathological revealed that the various layers of cornea tissue appeared irregular arrangement in the amnion + levofloxacin drops group 4 weeks after operation with 1-2 layers of new squamous epithelium.Disorder hypothallus structure,more inflammatory cells and residual vascular cavity were visible.However,new squamous epithelium of 4-5 layers was seen in the drug-loading amnion group,and inflammatory cells and residual vascular cavity were less than the amnion+levofloxacin drops group 4 weeks after operation.Conclusions Levofloxacin-loaded amniotic membrane can sustained release levofloxacin and maintain an effective drug concentration in aqueous humor,which improves the treating efficacy for staphylococcus aureus corneal ulceration.

OBJECTIVETo evaluate the clinical outcome of accessory navicular fusion for treatment of the painful accessory navicular bone of type II in adults.

METHODSFrom June 2006 to June 2012, a total of 38 feet (in 35 adult patients) with painful accessory navicular with type I underwent an fusion operation of the primary and accessory navicular bones,including 26 males and 9 females with a mean age of (32.4±7.3) years old ranging from 18 to 44 years old. The course of disease ranged from 3 to 10 months. The perioperative complications and radiological outcomes were observed and recorded. The foot function before and after operation were assessed by the American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) midfoot score, and the easement of the pain was evaluated by visual analog score (VAS).

RESULTSTwo patients had transient superficial inflammation of the incision, no obvious perioperative complications occurred. All patients were follow-up for (53.5±14.7) months (12 to 84 months). Bone union was confirmed on plain radiography in 32 cases (35 feet). The mean time from the operation to union was (13.7±2.3) weeks (9 to 18 weeks). Postoperative pain VAS score was improved obviosly than preoperative (V=12.14,P< 0.01). The talar-to-first metatarsal angle [(9.4±3.5)° vs (8.3±2.7)°, t=0.736, P>0.05)], calcaneal tilt angle [(17.7±2.2)° vs (18.9±3.4)°, t=0.794, P>0.05],talonavicular uncoverage angle [(14.3±3.4)° vs(12.5?4.6)°,t=0.947, P>0.05) ],and height of the first tarsometatarsal joint [(14.8±3.1) mm vs (15.9±2.8) mm,t=0.814,P>0.05)] before and after operations had no statistic difference. The AOFAS midfoot score was improced from preoperative 45.6±5.3 to postoperative 82.5±7.4 (t=3.214,P< 0.01).

CONCLUSIONFor the painful accessory navicular bone of type II in adults, if the patient has a large navicular bone and not complicated with rigid flatfoot, once the conservative treatment fails, fusion of the primary and accessory naviculars may be a successful intervention. Overall, the procedure provides reliable pain relief, definite foot function improvement, and good patient satisfaction.
