[Objective]To evaluate the value of clinical examination and magnetic resonance imaging in diagnosing chronic anterior cruciate ligament injury.[Method]Sixty-five patients with the diagnosis of chronic anterior cruciate ligament injury were retrospectively analyzed about the course of diagnosis and treatment.To gain the primary diagnosis through clinical examination,8 patients were performed magnetic resonance imaging.Finally all the patients were carried out arthroscopic surgery to make a final diagnosis.[Result]Arthroscopy found 53 cases with complete anterior cruciate ligament tears,12 cases with partial anterior cruciate ligament tears.In the complete anterior cruciate ligament tears cases,79.2% patients had positive anterior drawer test,96.2% had positive Lachman test and 92.5 % had positive pivot shift test.In the partial anterior cruciate ligament tears cases,16.7% patients had positive anterior drawer test,50.0% had positive Lachman test and 33.3 % had positive pivot shift test.The accuracy of MRI in diagnosing anterior cruciate ligament tears was 100%.[Conclusion]Clinical examination and magnetic resonance imaging can diagnose chronic anterior cruciate ligament effectively.

Objective The attempts was made to compare the results of a quadruple-strand semi-tendinosus tendon versus patellar tendon reconstruction for anterior cruciate ligament by arthroscopy in chronic complete anterior cruciate ligament injury.Methods60patients were enrolled in a prospective,ran-domized,controlled study.30patients underwent reconstruction with a quadruple-strand semitendinosus tendon autograft,30patients were treated with a bone-patellar tendon-bone autograft.The surgery was car-ried out in an alternating sequence with two autograft constructed materials.At the time of arthoscopy,the knee was examined totally,associated joint pathology was documented,and irreparably torn meniscal frag-ments were removed.60patients were followed up14to30months after operation,and evaluated in terms of the clinical test findings,the activity level,the functional status in daily activities,the range of motion,the stability of the knee,the level of return to sports and the patellofemoral crepitus at final follow-up.Results The objective outcome of replacement with a bone-patellar tendon-bone graft was identical to that obtained with a quadruple-strand semitendinosus tendon graft.The stability of the knee in the quadrupled-strand semitendinosus reconstruction was equal with that in the bone-patellar tendon-bone autograft.The return to sport was more frequent in the quadrupled-strand semitendinosus group comparing with in the bone-patellar tendon-bone group,there was80%and73%in each group respectively with no significant difference.A mild loss(≤3?)of knee extension was more frequent in the patellar tendon group than that in the quadru-pled-strand semitendinosus group,there was40%and6%in each group respectively,the difference was sig-nificant statistically.KT-2000arthrometer side-to-side difference of anterior displancement was13%versus20%in the quadrupled-strand semitendinosus group and patellar tendon group at133.4N.Patellofemoral crepitus was6%and17%in the quadrupled-stranded semitendinosus group and patellar tendon group re-spectively.Conclusion In a chronic complete injury of anterior cruciate ligament,the clinical results of re-construction with a quadrupled-strand semitendinosus tendon or patellar tendon by arthroscopy were satis-factory without significant differences between the two operative procedures.

Objective To study the feasibility and short-term effects of arthroscopic anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) reconstruction by using the Ligament Advancement Reinforcement System (LARS) artificial ligaments. Methods Arthroscopic ACL reconstruction was carried out in 16 patients with ACL injuries by using the LARS artificial ligaments. Bone tunnels of the femur and the tibia were prepared with an identical interval between each other. The artificial tendon was inserted into the tunnels, and then, fixed with 2 interface screws after being tightened, with the free end of the tendon within the articular cavity. The complicated injuries were treated simultaneously. Results The operation time was 51~86 min (mean, 64 min). No postoperative complications such as synovitis, ligament rupture, or movement restriction occurred. A follow-up checkup was made in the 16 patients for 1.5~6 months (mean, 3.8 months). The International Knee Documentation Committee (IKDC) scores showed 6 cases of grade C and 10 cases of grade D before the surgery, while 6 cases of grade A, 9 cases of grade B, and 1 case of grade C after the surgery ( ? 2 =6.264, P

BACKGROUND: Knee arthroplasty can correct the joint deformity, alleviate the pain and improve the joint function,thereby improving the patients' quality of life. Early rehabilitative training is the key to the functional recovery of the joint.OBJECTIVE: To observe the clinical effectiveness of early gait training on the rehabilitation of patients after knee arthroplasty.METHODS: Eighty-six cases undergoing unilateral knee arthroplasty in the Department of Sports Medicine were selected and randomly divided into experimental and control groups (n=43 per group). The experimental group wasgiven rehabilitation instruction before operation, and the gait training was carried out just after the operation. The patients in the control group only received the basic rehabilitation training. The Visual Analogue Scale and the Hospital for Special Surgery scores were evaluated at baseline and 2, 4, and 8 weeks, and 6 months postoperatively, and the clinical effectiveness was compared between two groups.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) The range of motion of the knee in the experimental group was significantly higher than that in the control group at 4 and 8 weeks, and 6 months postoperatively (P < 0.05). (2) At 8 weeks and 6 months postoperatively, the Visual Analogue Scale scores in the two groups both were significantly decreased (P < 0.05). (3) At 2 weeks postoperatively, the Hospital for Special Surgery scores in both groups were significantly increased (P < 0.05);the scores at 8 weeks postoperatively in the experimental group were higher than those in the control group (P > 0.05);the scores at 6 months postoperatively in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group (P < 0.05). (4) These findings suggest that compared with conventional training, early gaiting training can significantly improve the range of motion and pain of the knee, as well as enhance the functional recovery of the knee joint, which exhibits remarkable curative efficacy in the rehabilitation following knee arthroplasty.

Objective To compare the therapeutic effect between Kirschner wire- loop plating and clavicular hook plate in the treatment of distal clavicle fractures. Methods Forty- two patients with type Neer Ⅱ distal clavicle fracture were selected, among whom 23 patients were treated with Kirschner wire- loop plating (group A), and 19 patients were treated with clavicular hook plate (group B). The operative time, fluoroscopy time, length of incision, intra- operative bleeding volume and hospitalization time etc were recorded. The patients were followed up at 6 weeks, 3 months, 6 months and 12 months after operation. The American shoulder and elbow society (ASES) score was evaluated, and the therapeutic effect was evaluated by Karlsson standard. Results The operative time and fluoroscopy time in group B were significantly lower than those in group A: (63.5 ± 12.4) min vs. (71.5 ± 11.1) min and (3.6 ± 1.9) s vs. (4.8 ± 1.5) s, but the intra- operative bleeding volume, length of incision and cases of postoperative shoulder pain in group A were significantly lower than those in group B:(91.5 ± 18.5) ml vs. (108.7 ± 32.5) ml, (6.6 ± 0.7) cm vs. (11.3 ± 0.9) cm and 2 cases vs. 14 cases, and there were statistical differences (P<0.05 or <0.01). There was no statistical difference in hospitalization time between 2 groups (P>0.05). There was no statistical difference in ASES score at 6 weeks and 3 months after operation between 2 groups (P>0.05); but the ASES score at 6 and 12 months in group A was significantly higher than that in group B: (89.9 ± 12.6) scores vs. (79.7 ± 12.6) scores and (96.1 ± 4.8) scores vs. (86.1 ± 12.4) scores, and there was statistical difference (P<0.05 or <0.01). There was no statistical difference in the cases of good and excellent at 6 weeks, 3 months and 6 months after operation (P>0.05);but the cases of good and excellent at 12 months in group A was significantly more than that in group B:23 cases vs. 13 cases, and there was statistical difference (P<0.05). Conclusions Kirschner wire- loop plating provides a new treatment option for type Neer Ⅱ distal clavicle fractures. It is conducive to decrease the incidence of shoulder pain and improve the range of motion of should joint. Besides, this technology has advantage of small incision, relatively simple operation steps and small damage to the surrounding soft tissues of the acromioclavicular joint. It may be superior to the clavicular hook plate.
