BACKGROUND:Surgical management of sternoclavicular joint dislocation takes relatively larger risks for its adjacent mediastinal and other important structures. However, the surgical methods are varied and remain controversial.
OBJECTIVE:To investigate the feasibility and validity of intramedul ary fixation of the proximal clavicle and sternum for sternoclavicular joint dislocation.
METHODS:On 22 adult cadaver upper limb specimens, the anatomical features of the sternoclavicular joints and associated ligaments, the size of articular surface between the medial clavicle and manubrium and the morphology of articular disc, costoclavicular ligament and sternoclavicular ligament were observed and measured. From January 2009 to July 2012, three patients with sternoclavicular joint dislocation received the intramedul ary fixation with wire rope or absorbable suture in figure-of-eight shape. They were males, aged 9, 45 and 62 years, with an average age of 38.6 years. The outcome was evaluated by upper limb function DASH score.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:Anatomic results demonstrated that the anteroposterior and coronal diameters of the surface of the medial clavicle were greater than that of the sternum, so they did not match each other. The minimum thickness of the manubrium sterni was at the superior margin of articular surface and the largest was at the sternal angle. The minimum width of the manubrium sterni was at the superior margin of articular surface and the largest was at the inferior margin. The articular disc, liked an el ipse and matched with the articulating surface of the manubrium sterni more, whose anteroposterior diameter was greater than its coronal diameter. Central thickness was greater than the edge thickness. The costoclavicular ligament was thicker and denser than the anterior and posterior sternoclavicular ligament. The anterior and posterior sternoclavicular ligaments were close in length, width and thickness. Clinical trial results demonstrated that al cases were fol owed up for 14 to 36 months. DASH score was 10-16, 13.3 in average. Effects of internal fixation were satisfactory. Surgical management of sternoclavicular joint dislocation by the fixation of the proximal clavicle and sternum through the intramedul ary cavity with wire rope or absorbable suture is reliable and effective.

The Letournel-Judet classification system for acetabular fractures is widely used, but there are still some shortcomings, such as incomplete classification and confusion of classification concepts, which cannot effectively guide the treatment. Professor Hou Zhiyong proposed and elaborated an improved acetabular fracture classification system based on the concept of three columns of acetabulum. However, the credibility and repeatability of the classification still lacked validation from clinical data. In this regard, the author included 463 patients with relatively complete imaging data admitted to Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University and Honghui Hospital affiliated to Xi'an Jiaotong University Medical College in the past five years. Four trauma orthopedists classified the patients according to the modified classification method of acetabular fracture. After two months, the original sequence of imaging data was disrupted and re-classified by the same trauma orthopedists. The consistency of the classification was evaluated by Kappa test and compared with Letournel-Judet classification. The results showed that credibility and repeatability of the modified classification were higher than Letournel-Judet classification, suggesting the feasibility of clinical application.

Objective To evaluate the application value of absorbable hemostat textile as submucosal injection of endoscopic submucosal dissection(ESD). Methods Twelve New Zealand rabbits were injected with absorbable hemostat textile solution,glycerol fructose and normal saline. The uplift effect was measured after injection. Simulated ESD was performed in the rabbit stomach and bleeding amount was measured. The injection site was pathologically examined at 30 minutes after the soluble hemostat textile and normal saline were injected. Fifteen pigs were injected with absorbable hemostat textile at two locations of 20-30 cm from the anus,and injected normal saline at another two locations of 20-30 cm from the anus.One site was performed simulated ESD and the other was not. Fifteen simulated ESD were performed in the soluble hemostatic group and the normal saline group, respectively. Operation time was recorded and difference in wound healing was compared between the two groups. Results In the uplift experiment, the absorbable hemostat textile group had higher uplift height(4.3±1.4 mm,4.1±1.9 mm,3.8±0.7 mm, 3.3±0.9 mm, respectively)at 0 min,10 min,20 min,30 min than that of the glycerol fructose group(4.3±2.2 mm,4.1± 2.0 mm,3.6±1.4 mm, 3.2±0.8 mm, respectively, P<0.05), and the glycerol fructose group was higher than that of the normal saline group(3.8±1.6 mm,2.6±1.4 mm,1.9±1.9 mm,1.1±0.7 mm, P<0.05). There was no significant difference in uplift height between the absorbable hemostat textile group and the glycerol fructose group(P>0.05). In the bleeding experiment, the bleeding amount of absorbable hemostat textile group was significantly less than that of the glycerol fructose group(0.36±0.07 mL VS 0.42±0.06 mL, P<0.05);the bleeding amount of glycerol fructose group was significantly lower than that of the normal saline group(0.42±0.06 mL VS 0.55±0.07 mL,P<0.05). There was no obvious tissue necrosis and other adverse complications in the absorbable hemostat textile group and the normal saline group. In simulated ESD experiment,complete resection rate of the absorbable hemostat textile group was higher than that of the normal saline group[86.7%(13/15)VS 46.7%(7/15), P<0.05], and mean operation time of the absorbable hemostat textile group was less than that of the normal saline group(3.2± 0.3 min VS 3.8± 0.5 min, P<0.05). No hemorrhage, perforations or other related adverse events occurred in non-ESD lesions. Conclusion Absorbable hemostat textile is safe and effective as submucosal injection of ESD.
