Objective To demonstrate the clinical results of the patients with failed cemented femoral component due to aseptic loosening with extensive porous-coated femoral implants. Methods Be-tween 1998 and 2003, twenty hips (20 patients) with a failed cemented femoral component were revised us-ing extensive porous-coated femoral components and allograft. There were 12 males and 8 females. The mean age of the patients at the time of revision was 64 years (41-77 years). All of the revised femoral com-ponents were cemented stems,with first-generation cement technique in 18 hips and second-generation ce-ment technique in 2 hips. The indications for hip arthroplasty included osteonecrosis of the femoral head in 14 hips and femoral neck fracture in 6 hips. The interval from primary hip arthroplasty to revision surgery ranged from 5 to 17 years, with an average of 11.5 years. There were 4 re-revisions in this group. Based on Paprosky classification for bone deficiency, 3 hips were of type I, 6 of type II and 11 of type IIIA. The com-ponents implanted included AML (DePuy) in 5 cases , Solution (DePuy)in 7, full-coated (Zimmer)in 6 and Perfecta Extend Stems (Wright Med) in 2. The postoperative stability was evaluated according to the Engh criteria. The patients were followed for an average of 40 months (18-60). Results At the latest fol-low-up, the mean Harris score was improved from 40 to 85 points postoperatively. The bony ingrowths were found in 17 hips and the fibrosis stability in 3 on postoperative radiographic evaluation. There were no re-revisions in this group. The bone remodeling was observed in all osteolytic zones. Conclusion In the pres-ence of bone loss in the proximal metaphyseal region of the femur, the extensive porous-coated femoral com-ponents may provide a bypass for the deficient proximal bone. It may further obtain initial optimizing pros-thesis-bone fitting and an axial anti-rotational stability in the relatively normal diaphyseal region of the fe-mur to allow the reliable biological fixation with bony ingrowths.

Objective To analyze the risk factors related to intraoperative femur fracture in hip replacement and discuss the treatment countermeasures. Methods The medical records and radiographs of 38 patients with intraoperative femur fracture who were treated at Tianjin Orthopedic Hospital from December 2002 to December 2009 were retrospectively studied. Fractures were classified according to the Amstutz system or AAOS standard and the treatment methods were selected accordingly. Reduction and fixation was performed in 25 patients including 14 patients treated with interfragmentary or cerclage fixation, five with plate fixations and six with cortical strut graft. Shank prosthesis was replaced in 12 patients. Results The mean follow up period was 4.5 years, which showed successful union of the fractures in 36 patients and delayed union in two. Replacement of the prosthesis was needed in one patient for prosthesis loosening four years postoperatively. Conclusions Osteoporosis, violence, abnormal femur canal and over large prosthesis are the main causes of intraoperative femur fracture in hip replacement.Proper selection of treatment method according to fracture types may attain fracture union with a stable implant.

PurposeTo evaluate the effect of right ventricular septum (RVS) and right ventricular apex (RVA) pacing on the left atrial systolic function in patients with atrioventricular block by using real-time three-dimensional echocardiography (RT-3DE).Materials and Methods Fifty-one patients with atrioventricular block who were candidates for implanted atrioventricular sequential pacemaker were randomly divided into RVS group (n=31) and RVA group (n=20). The minimum left atrium volume (LAVmin), maximum left atrium volume (LAVmax), and left atrium volume before contraction (LAVprep) were measured by RT-3DE at pre-operation, the 1st month, 3rd month, 6th month, and 12th month after pacemaker implantation. Accordingly, the left atrial total ejection fraction (LATEF) and the left atrial active ejection fraction (LAAEF) were calculated.Results The LAVmin at the 3rd month, 6th month, 12th month after implantation were significantly lower than that at the 1st month and pre-operation in both groups (RVA group:t=2.97 and 2.74,P<0.05; RVS group:t=3.24 and 2.86,P<0.05). LAVprep at the 6th month, 12th month in RVA group, and LAVprep at the 3rd month, 6th month, 12th month in RVS group reduced when compared with that of pre-operation (RVA group:t=3.20,P<0.05; RVS group:t=2.71,P<0.05). LATEF and LAAEF in both groups at the 3rd month, 6th month, 12th month increased when compared with that of pre-operation (RVA group:t=2.87 and 9.68,P<0.05; RVS group:t=3.56 and 8.22,P<0.05). The LATEF and LAAEF in RVS group at the 6th month and 12th month after implantation were significantly larger than that in RVA group at the same time (t=2.90, 5.22, 3.03 and 3.55, P<0.05).Conclusion Atrioventricular sequential pacing is helpful to recovering the left atrial systolic function in patients with atrioventricular block. Compared with RVA pacing, RVS pacing is able to increase LATEF and LAAEF more greatly.

Objective To explore the reasonability of posterior approach incision length in an unselected patient cohort with minimally invasive total hip arthroplasty (THA) and compare the clinical results of different incision lengths. Methods A consecutive unselected 256 patients who underwent primary unilateral THA between March 2001 and December 2007 were studied prospectively. Prior to the operation, the incision length was not deliberately selected for the patients. A posterior approach was used for all procedures with minimally invasive surgical techniques. The patients were divided into three groups according to the incision length at the end of surgery: mini-incision group ( ＜ 10 cm, 99 patients) , moderate incision group (10-14 cm, 112 patients) and standard incision group ( ＞ 14 cm, 45 patients). The in-hospital data including age, sex, diagnosis,body mass index (BMI),operation duration, intraoperative blood loss, total blood loss, preservation of the external rotators, anatomic repair of the capsule as well as postoperative radiographs were collected for analysis of the intraoperative and postoperative complications. The pain was estimated by using the individual visual analog scale (VAS) and the functional outcome evaluated by Harris hip score preoperatively and postoperatively. Results All the patients were followed up for an average period of 6.1 years (2.5-9.2 years). The incision length was shortened and optimized ( ＜ 14 cm) in 211 patients. There showed decrease of BMI, less intraoperative blood loss, less pain, satisfactory outcome but higher proportion of abnormal abduction angle of the acetabular prosthesis in the early postoperative period in the mini-incision group, with statistical difference compared with the other two groups (P ＜ 0.05). The preservation of the piriformis tendon, anatomic repair of the joint capsule, operation duration and Harris score at 6th postoperative week in the moderate incision group were similar to those in the mini incision group but showed statistical difference in comparison with the standard incision group ( P ＜0. 05). Conclusions Minimally invasive THA with a smaller posterior incision can attain safe and effective curative effect for the unselected patient cohort. A smaller but not necessarily miniincision may allow minimal soft tissue trauma for the surgeon to perform the procedure well and ensure a long-term clinical results.

Eight patients with chronic pancreatitis or benign pancreatic head tumors were investigate to evaluate the use of Bern procedure in duodenum-preserving pancreatic head resection.Our data indicated no periopemtive deaths and serious complications.During median follow-up of 10 monks(range,6 to 14 monks),all patients reported impmvod clinical symptoms,and those with chronic pancreatitis had weight increased by 7.9 kg(range,4 to 18 kg).Pancreatic exocfine function wag improved,although the endocrine function showed no change.The Bern procedure might be a relatively safe and effective procedure for the treatment of chronic pancreatitis or benign pancreatic head tumors.

ObjectiveTo study the indications and mid-term outcomes of periacetabular osteotomy on adult patients of developmental dysplasia of the hip (DDH). MethodsTwenty-five adult patients with DDH underwent periacetabular osteotomies through modified Smith-Peterson approach. There were 19 females and 6 males with an average age of 25.5 years(range, 18-45). Every patient had a single dysplasia hip, including 14 hips in the left, and the other 11 in the right. Three cases were operated formerly, 2 of them received Chari osteotomy and 1 received Salter osteotomy. Before operation 13 hips were T(o)nnis Grade 0 osteoarthritis, 9 hips were Grade Ⅰ , 3 hips were Grade Ⅱ. The Shenton line of 18 hips was broken. The lateral center-edge angle was 4.57°±7.39°, the anterior center-edge angle was 0.95°±6.02°, the horizontal tilt angle was 32.50°±5.96°, the femoral head extrusion index was 38.11％±5.70％, the Harris hip score was 75.32±7.51 points. Changes of the indexes mentioned above were observed during the period of follow-up.ResultsAll patients were followed up for average 4.5 years(range, 2.0-7.5). Compared with the preoperative radiographic severity at the latest follow-up, 3 hips of T(o)nnis Grade Ⅰ improved to Grade 0, 2 hips of Grade Ⅱ improved to Grade Ⅰ, 1 hip of Grade Ⅰ changed into Grade Ⅱ. The incident of the break of Shenton line decreased to 10 hips. The lateral center-edge angle improved to 29.07°±5.81° the anterior centeredge angle improved to 29.52°±4.51°, the horizontal tilt angle decreased to 19.17°±4.95°, the femoral head extrusion index decreased to 24.20％±4.83％, the Harris hip score increased to 84.88±4.88 points. The major complication included 16 cases of lateral femoral cutaneous nerve palsy(7 cases of them didn't recover forever) and 1 case of ectopic ossification of Brooker Ⅰ . ConclusionPeriacetabular osteotomy through a modified Smith-Peterson approach were performed to the dysplasia hip of adults, it can increase congruence,improve hip function; it can also prevent subchondral sclerosis and cysts forming, preserve joint space and delay the occurrence of osteoarthritis.

OBJECTIVETo investigate the correlation between the pathogeneses of diarrhea-pre- dominant irritable bowel syndrome (D-IBS) complicated functional dyspepsia (FD) patients of Gan-stagnation Pi-deficiency Syndrome (GSPDS) and symptoms, psychological states, and gastrointestinal hormones.

METHODSA total of 111 patients with confirmed D-IBS complicated FD of GSPDS were recruited as the treated group by using Rome III standard and Chinese medical syndrome standard. And 30 healthy volunteers were recruited as the control group. The general condition, scoring for digestive symptoms, and the distribution of GSPDS subtype of all subjects were recorded by a questionnaire, and assessed by Symptom Checklist (SCL-90; a software for psychological test developed by Beijing Huicheng Adult Cor- poration). Meanwhile, plasma levels of 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT), somatostatin (SS), vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP), endothelin (ET), interleukin 10 (IL-10), and interleukin 12 (IL-12) were measured in all subjects.

RESULTS(1) The subtype of D-IBS complicated FD of GSPDS was dominant in Pi-qi deficiency type (51/111,45.9%),Pi yang deficiency type (34/111,30.6%), and GSPDS. There was no statistical difference in the scoring of digestive symptoms among the 3 subtypes (P >0.05). (2) Compared with the control group, the anxiety factor score and the total score significantly increased in all three subtypes of D-IBS complicated FD of GSPDS, and the depression score of Pi yang deficiency type and Gan-depression type also significantly increased (P <0.05, P <0.01); the depression score of Gan-depression type was significantly higher than that of the Pi-qi deficiency type (P <0.01). Plasma 5-HT levels were obviously lower in D-IBS complicated FD patients of GSPDS accompanied with anxiety or depression than in those with no obvious psychological abnormalities, and VIP and IL-10 levels were significantly lower than those in the control group (P <0.05). Plasma VIP levels were also obviously lower in D-IBS complicated FD patients of GSPDS accompanied with anxiety or depression than in those with no obvious psychological abnormalities (P <0.01), and SS levels were significantly lower than those in the control group (P <0.05). There was no statistical difference in plasma ET or IL-12 levels in each patient group, when compared with the control group (P >0.05). (3) Compared with the.control group, plasma 5-HT levels significantly increased, plasma VIP and IL-10 levels significantly decreased in ach subtype of D-IBS complicated FD patients of GSPDS (P <0.05, P <0.01), and no significant change of SS, ET, or IL-12 occurred (P >0.05). Besides, plasma 5-HT levels were significantly higher in Gan-depression type than in Pi yang deficiency type, VIP levels were lower in Gan-depression type than in Pi-qi deficiency type (all P <0.05).

CONCLUSIONSGan stagnation and Pi deficiency were dominant in D-IBS complicated FD patients of GSPDS. Psychological abnormalities, increased plasma 5-HT levels, and decreased plasma VIP levels were closely correlated with Gan stagnation subtype, which provided some reference for looking for objective indicators of Chinese medical syndromes in treating D-IBS complicated FD patients of GSPDS.
