Objective To investigate the clinical diagnosis and the results of arthroscopic treatment for acetabular labrale tears. Methods From November 2008 to December 2009, 21 patients with unilateral acetabular labrale tears underwent hip arthroscopy were entered in the study, including 9 males and 12 females with an average age of 37.1 years. Physical examination, X-ray examination and magnetic resonance arthrography (MRA) were carried out preoperatively to make the definite diagnosis. Of 21 cases, including labrale debridement in 14 cases, labrale debridement plus femoral osteoplasty in 5 cases and labrale repair plus osteoplasty in 2 cases. Patients were followed-up either by telephone inquiring or out-patient interview.The visual analogue scale (VAS) and Harris hip score were recorded before operation and 6 months after operation respectively. Results All 21 patients showed a positive Fadir impingement sign on the affected hips,meanwhile 15 cases showed a positive Fabir impingement sign, and positive McCarthy test was observed in 9cases. X-ray film showed 11 cases have cam type impingement, among which 6 combined with pincer type impingement. Two cases had acetabulum retroversion alone. On MRA images, signals of contrast agent infiltration in anterior superior quadrant which indicated labrale tear were observed among all cases. All labrale tears were confirmed under arthroscopy. All patients were followed up for average 11.6 months (range, 6-19).The symptoms were obviously released after operation. The VAS decreased from (5.3±1.3) preoperatively to (1.4±-0.9) 6 months postoperatively. The mean Harris hip score improved from (63±9) preoperatively to (84±10) 6 months postoperatively. All the differences had statistical significance. Conclusion Acetabular labrale injury has a close correlation with femoroacetabular impingement. Impingement test and MRA have a high sensitivity and accuracy on clinical diagnosis of labrale tears. Arthroscopic debridement, repair and osteoplasty for labrale tears give a good early outcomes.

BACKGROUND:As a more common method in the orthopedic field, the method of intra-articular injection drugs has distinct curative effects, but there are some complications. In a certain extent, this method caters to the psychological fear of surgery, and can serve as a kind of conservative treatment. But some experts believed that because of the limit of sterile conditions, intra-articular injection of drugs wil increase the risk of intra-articular infection and they opposed this method.
OBJECTIVE:To review the efficacy and adverse reactions of intra-articular injection drugs in recent years, and explain clinical applications of intra-articular injection drugs in orthopedics.
METHODS:A computer-based search was conducted in PubMed and Wanfang database for articles related to the application of intra-articular injection drugs in orthopedics published between January 2007 and December 2013. The English and Chinese key words were“intra-articular, injection, orthopaedics, tranexamic acid, hyaluronic acid, corticosteroid, drugs”. Data were checked in the first trial, old articles and repetitive studies were excluded. The relevant 43 articles accorded with inclusion criteria were reviewed.
RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:In orthopedics, the method of intra-articular injection drugs is simple, economic and effective, but at the same time, there are some side effects. Tranexamic acid by intra-articular injection can significantly reduce blood loss after total joint replacement, is safety and economic. Intra-articular injection joint lubricant can reduce internal friction of joints and improve the adhesion of joint cavity, can be used as a good conservative treatment for osteoarthritis. Intra-articular injection hormone drugs can treat inflammatory arthritis, and short-term curative effect is obvious, but due to large long-term side effects, the method is not recommended now. Intra-articular injection of analgesic drugs and other drugs have both advantages complications. The efficacy of intra-articular injection drugs in orthopedics is obvious;meanwhile, this method has some complications. Orthopedic surgeons should select related drugs by indications. We stil need to further make reasonable regimen with intra-articular injection drugs in future large-scale study.

BACKGROUND:Tranexamic acid has been more and more used in reducing bleeding after joint replacement, but its usage method and dosage remain controversial, and become a hot focus in recent years. OBJECTIVE:To investigate the efficacy of intra-articular injection of tranexamic acid on postoperative blood loss and limb circumference changes in patients who received unilateral total knee arthroplasty. METHODS:From March to October 2013, clinical data of 90 patients undergoing primary unilateral total knee arthroplasty were randomized to the tranexamic acid group and the control group, including 19 males and 71 females. The 30 patients in the tranexamic acid group received 50 mL of 3%tranexamic acid dilute solution inside knee joint after capsule closure, and 60 patients in the control group received the same volume of physiological saline. No significant difference in age, height, body mass index, anticoagulation, the type of prosthesis, tourniquet time and preoperative diagnosis was detected between the two groups (P>0.05). The amounts of intraoperative and postoperative blood loss and blood transfusion, postoperative drainage volume, the preoperative and postoperative limb circumference 10 cm above the operated knee were recorded. Routine blood test was reviewed after the surgery. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:There were no significant differences in total blood loss, postoperative drainage volume and limb circumference changes between tranexamic acid and control groups (P>0.05). The amount of postoperative hidden blood loss was significantly less in the tranexamic acid group than in the control group (t=-2.683, P<0.05). These data suggested that the intra-articular injection of tranexamic acid intraoperatively in patients receiving total knee arthroplasty could significantly reduce the amounts of postoperative hidden blood loss, and did not affect the postoperative limb circumference changes.

One hundred and fifty femoral head necrosis patients with intramedullary decompression received autologous stem cell transplantation. The blood was taken from unilateral or bilateral iliac, in each group the volumes of blood taken were 200, 300 or 400 ml respectively. The number of mononuclear cells was counted before and after centrifugation. The mononuclear cell count in subgroup of 200 ml,300 ml and 400 ml taken from unilateral iliac after centrifugation was (3. 11 ±1. 42) × 1010/L, (2. 62 ±1. 31 ) × 1010/L and(2. 13 ±. 91) × 1010/L. The concentration was significantly lower in subgroup of 400 ml than that of 200 ml (t=5. 118, P<0. 01). The mononuclear cells count in subgroup of 200 ml,300 ml and 400 ml taken from bilateral iliac was(4. 51 ±. 21) × 1010/L, (3. 89 ±. 06) × 1010/L and (2. 98 ±1. 39) × 1010/L, the concentration was significantly lower in subgroup of 400 ml than that of subgroup of 200 ml (t = 6. 446, P < 0. 01). Whether 200 ml or 300 ml or 400 ml blood were taken, the mononuclear cell count in blood taken from bilateral iliac after centrifugation was significantly higher than that from unilateral iliac(t = 3. 119,P < 0. 01; t = 5. 544, P < 0. 01 ;t = 2. 207 ,P < 0. 05). The results indicate that the concentration of isolated bone marrow mononuclear cells is higher from bilateral iliac than unilateral iliac. The concentration of isolated monocytes is reduced gradually with the increased blood volume.

This retrospective study was to compare the clinical effects of arthroscopie drilling with arthroscopic microfracture technology on full-thickness chondral defects in 68 patients treated between March 2003 and June 2005. The patients were followed up for an average of (20 ± 5 ) months. Lysholm score and Tegner scale were used to evaluate the efficacy. For the arthrescopic drilling group (n = 15 ) and the microfracture surgery group (n =27) , total effective rates were 12/15 and 85% (23/27), respectively. Our data suggest that those two methods provide simple and effective surgical procedure for the treatment of chondral defects of the knee; the results of arthroscopic microfracture were significantly better than arthroscopic drilling.

Objective To study the clinical treatment and prognosis of de novo liver cancer following renal transplantation.Methods The clinical data of 15 patients who developed de novo liver cancer after renal transplantation carried out prior to treatment of liver cancer at the First Center Hospital of Tianjin between June 2006 and June 2016 were retrospectively studied.These patients were diagnosed to have liver cancer ranging from 23 to 98 months after renal transplantations,with an average of (42.5 ± 29.7) months.Two patients were diagnosed within 2 years,7 within 5 years,and 6 over 5 years after renal transplantation.Results Three patients underwent transcatheter arterial chemoembolization (TACE) and 12 patients underwent surgical resection which included right/left hemihepatectomy (n =5),hepatic segment resection (n =4),and tumor enucleation (n =3).Postoperative histopathology confirmed hepatocellular carcinoma in 8 patients,cholangiocarcinoma in 1 patient,and mixed liver cancer in 3 patients.Among the 12 patients who initially underwent'curative'surgery,3 patients died from recurrent cancer 8,16,25 months after surgery,respectively.The remaining 9 patients were still alive with a follow-up which ranged from 0.6 to 65-month.The 3 patients who underwent TACE were alive for 4,7 and 13 months,respectively.Conclusions De novo liver cancer were usually asymptomatic and had a rapid onset.The optimal clinical management which includes early diagnosis,appropriate therapy with immunosuppression and renal function preservation can result in good long-term survival.

BACKGROUND:It is a clinical difficult in the treatment of osteonecrosis with joint preservation, and to solve this problem, a variety of bone graft substitutes are at the exploration stage. OBJECTIVE:To evaluate the clinical outcome of lightbulb operation with porous bioceramic β-tricalcium phosphate in a consecutive series of patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head. METHODS:From January to December 2008, 58 patients (88 hips) who had undergone lightbulb operation with porous bioceramic β-tricalcium phosphate were involved in this study. Al patients were evaluated both clinicaly and radiographicaly at postoperative 3, 6, 12 months and annualy. Functional improvement was assessed with the Harris hip score. RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: Among these patients, 56 patients (85 hips) were folowed up for 2-5 years. According to the ARCO staging system, there were 27 hips of stage II, 40 hips of stage IIIa, 18 hips of IIIb. According to the hospital’s classification, type C was in 4 hips, L1 in 15 hips, L2 in 28 hips, and L3 in 38 hips. According to the Harris hip score system, excelent outcome was in 55 hips, good in 12 hips, fair in 5 hips and poor in 13 hips. Nine of 11 patients who failed to preserve their own joints were subjected to hip replacement. The  mean preoperative and postoperative Harris scores were 61.2 and 85.3, respectively, with a mean improvement of 24.1 points (P < 0.001). All hips were radiologically stable, with no progress of osteonecrosis, and bone density in the bone graft area increased obviously. The replacement time of porous bioceramic β-tricalcium phosphate was 1-1.5 years. These findings suggest that the porous bioceramic β-tricalcium phosphate provides an option to treat osteonecrosis of the femoral head with satisfactory clinical outcomes, and profits the repair and reconstruction of femoral head osteonecrosis. When in the lateral column of femoral head, the porous bioceramic β-tricalcium phosphate can play a supporting role in the lateral column of the necrotic area, and further prevent collapse, which is suitable for patients with osteonecrosis of the femoral head, especially for those with joint preservation.

Objective To evaluate the impact of the intrauterine device (IUD) insertion on the mental state of women.Methods From Jan.2009 to Jun.2010,a multi-center clinical observational study was performed.Totally 641 women were selected in the six provinces' 18 family planning service stations and hospitals for IUD insertion surgery study.Analysis of the change of women's mental state which was evaluated by symptom checklist-90 (SCL-90) scale before and after IUD insertion surgery.Results Before and after IUD insertion surgery,10 factors' scores in SCL-90 of the observed objects were between 1.1 to 1.2,total scores were 107 ± 27 and 105 ± 25,respectively.Before and after surgery,total average score both were 1.2,the average score of positive items both were 2.1.The difference of the above results were not statistically significance (all P ＞0.05).Preoperative and postoperative,the rate of positive items was 9.2％-19.6％ and 7.7％-17.6％,respectively.In addition to anxiety and fear,the rate of other factors' positive items postoperative was significantly lower than those in the preoperative (all P ＜ 0.05).The incidence of the observed objects postoperative of each factor score,deteriorated was in the range of 4.9％ to 23.0％,improved was in the range of 26.3％-50.1％.The incidence of total scores,deterioration was 28.8％ (166/575),improved was 45.6％ (262/575).The incidence of the average score of positive items,deterioration was 3.7％ (21/575),improved was 52.3％ (301/575).Logistic analysis showed that,in addition to unit level,there were no other significant influencing factors for women' mental state of postoperative (all P ＞ 0.05).Conclusion IUD insertion surgery has no adverse effect on women's mental state.
