Chinese Journal of Orthopaedic Trauma 2010;12(3):212-216
Objective To explore an effective prevention and management of nonunion and malunion due to insidious infection after fracture internal fixation. Methods From January 2001 to January 2006,we treated 26 patients with nonunion and malunion due to insidious infection after fracture internal fixation.They were 15 cases of femoral fractures, 2 cases of ulna fractures, 3 cases of radial fracturos, 3 cases of humerus fractures, and 3 cases of tibial fractures. The patients were treated with irrigation after debridement.In 23 fractures, the internal fixation was dislodged and changed into external fixation. In the 3 cases whose internal fixation remained, instillation and drainage were conducted after debridement. Bone grafting was performed for 20 cases after replacement of internal fixation, and for 3 cases after removal of external fixation.Three patients received no bone graft. Results The preoperative X-ray findings confirmed the diagnosis of insidious infection in 21 cases, while the other 5 cases were diagnosed by bacterial culture or pathological examination of the pus and inflammatory granulation tissue found during surgery. The bacterial culture was positive in 17 cases, including 6 cases of Staphylococcus epidermidis, 8 cases of Staphylococcus aureus, and 3 cases of Escherichia coli. All the patients were followed up for 8 to 48 months, with an average of 23.5 months. Of the 26 cases, 22 obtained bony union, 2 partial union and 2 nonunion. Complications included fistula in 2 patients and infection relapse in 3 patients. Conclusions Insidious infection may be related to the bacterial toxicity, anatomical sites and surgical methods. X-ray changes may help the diagnosis of insidious infection. Surgery is necessary for management of nonunion and malunion due to insidious infection after fracture internal fixation.

Objective To present the clinical and pathological features of carcinosarcoma of ureter and renal pelvis. Methods Three cases of carcinosarcoma of ureter and renal pelvis were reviewed. Results The clinical symptoms of carcinosarcomas of ureter and renal pelvis are hematuria and flank pain.The neoplasm consists of an admixture of malignant epithelial and mesenchymal elements on histological studies.The immunohistochemical studies demonstrated obvious epithelial and mesenchymal reactivity.Three patients died of the disease 8 months,14 months and 2.5 months after operation. Conclusions Carcinosarcoma of ureter and renal pelvis is a rare occurrence and is usually associated with a poor prognosis.It is sometimes difficult to make certain the diagnosis and the immunohistochemical studies are essential in pathological examinations.This lesion should be differentiated from sarcomatoid carcinoma.

Objective To understand the pathogenesis and the clinical features of the bladder soft calculi. Methods A case of bladder soft calculi with emphysematous cystitis was reported.The patient,who had underwent partial cystectomy for bladder cancer,was 53 years old with diabetes and prostate hyperplasia. E.coli was found in his urine.KUB showed negative result.B-us and cystoscopy showed bladder mass.Some of other cases were also reviewed. Results The patient underwent surgical operation,and during the procedure a multilamellar yellow/brown internal structure of the calculi was observed.It presented as something like cellulose in the pathological study.The patient received antibiotic therapy after operation for two weeks,and recovered very well. Conclusions The formation of soft calculi is typically associated with urinary infection caused by proteus species.Diabetes mellitus is believed to be the most important predisposing factor for the formation of soft calculi.In most cases, surgical manipulation is required for their removal because they are not dissolved by any means yet known, and the antibiotic therapy is necessary too.

BACKGROUND: Autologous bone marrow transplantation (ABMT) has been widely used in treatment of the malunion of fracture, but this treatment to cure malunion of fracture induced by infection is still not consistent.OBJECTIVE: To observe the application and clinical outcome of ABUT for the malunion of fracture induced by infection.DESIGN, TIME AND SETTING: A retrospective analysis. The patients were all enrolled at Department of Orthopaedics in the Third Affiliated Hospital of Hebei Medical University from January 2001 to January 2006. PARTICIPANTS: A total of 19 patients with malunion of fracture induced by infection, including 13 males and 6 females aged from 18 to 50 years, with an average of 36. The lesioned site contained fracture of tibia 10, fracture of femur 5, fracture of ulna 2 and fracture of humerus 2. Among them, there were 6 cases with bone defect, 9 cases with bone fracture delayed union and 4 cases with bone fracture disunion.METHODS: Nineteen patients treated with percutaneous ABUT. Among the 19 cases, 12 patients received the transplant 3 weeks after infection was under controlled, and other 8 patients received the transplant following autologous bone transplantation.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: After ABMT, all patients were checked using X-ray regularly, the pacing of bone union was traced through observing the growth of callus, and the side reaction was also detected.RESULTS: Totally 19 patients were included in the follow-up visit, and 15 cases of them achieved bony union. Clinical healing time was 7-20 weeks. The patients had no obvious discomforts except local gas pains when injecting and at pristine time after injection. Five patients had a small quantity of exudation. No infection relapse or soft tissue ossification were observed at the injection position. Four patients had not achieved bony union, the reason was that bone defect in 2 patients exceed 2 cm; fracture disunion with pseudoarticulation formatted in one patient, the sclerous broken ends of fractured bone was more than 2 cm; another patient's external fixation displaced, we adjusted it and the bone healed after 12 weeks. Three patients received autoallergic ilium bone transplantation in the second time of operation, the fractured bone got bony union. CONCLUSION: ABMT by percutaneous injection into malunion site can induce ossification, repair bone fracture and bone defects. The clinical application is simple and exhibits small wounds without complications. Especially ABMT is effective for the patient with the malunion of fracture induced by infection.

Objective To investigate the health behavior level of elderly patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) in order to instruct nurses how to give health education to them. Methods By con-venient sampling, 71 elderly patients with CHD in four hospitals in Wuhan were surveyed with the ques-tionnaire of health promoting lifestyle profile Ⅱ of FANG Heng-ying. The investigation results were ana-lysed. Results The findings showed that mean total score of health behavior of elderly patients with CHD obtained from the questionnaire was only 2.40,the level of health behavior was low. There were statistically significant differences among scores of elderly patients with CHD at different levels of family income and at different occupations before retirement. Conclusions The general level of health behavior of elderly pa-tients with CHD was low, especially in the aspect of health responsibility. Moreover, Patients with lower family income, peasants, and as a worker before retirement have lower health behavior level. This survey suggests that nurses should enhance the health education of the elderly patients with CHD, especially the poor and elderly farmer patients with CHD to improve their health behavior level.
