Objective:To investigate the efficacy of cementless long-stem total hip arthroplasty (THA) in the treatment of end-stage osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) combined with ipsilateral subtrochanteric femoral fractures.Methods:A retrospective case series study was conducted on 18 patients with end-stage ONFH combined with ipsilateral subtrochanteric fractures who were admitted to the 940th Hospital of the Joint Logistics Support Force of the PLA from January 2016 to June 2023, including 8 males (8 hips) and 10 females (10 hips), aged 56-79 years [(69.4±7.0)years]. All the patients had Association Research Circulation Osseous (ARCO) stage IV ONFH combined with ipsilateral subtrochanteric fracture (Seinsheimer types II-IV). Parameters recorded included operation duration, intraoperative blood loss, length of hospital stay, time to partial weight-bearing, and time to full weight-bearing. Vertical offset and leg length discrepancy (LLD) were compared preoperatively and at 1 week postoperatively. Visual analogue scale (VAS) score, hip range of motion (flexion, abduction), and Harris hip score (HHS) were compared preoperatively, at 1 week, 3 months postoperatively, and at the last follow-up. Perioperative complications were observed.Results:All the patients were followed up for 12-70 months [(36.4±16.2)months]. Operation duration was (116.4±18.1)minutes. Intraoperative blood loss was (334.4±121.3)ml. The length of hospital stay was 13.0(10.0, 16.3)days. The time to partial weight-bearing was 5.0(3.0, 7.0)days, with time to full weight-bearing for 5.0(4.0, 5.3)weeks. At 1 week postoperatively, the vertical offset [(58.9±4.1)mm] was significantly increased compared to that preoperatively [(49.3±3.3)mm] ( P<0.01), while the LLD [(4.2±3.1)mm] was significantly reduced compared to that preoperatively [(16.2±5.8)mm] ( P<0.01). At 1 week, 3 months postoperatively and at the last follow-up, the VAS scores [3.0(2.0, 3.3)points, 2.0(1.0, 2.0)points, and 1.0(0.0, 2.0)points] were significantly lower than that preoperatively [6.0(5.0, 6.3)points], and decreased with the passage of follow-up time ( P<0.01); the hip flexion angles [(50.4±6.5)°, (94.3±6.4)°, and (104.7±7.4)°] and hip abduction angles [(21.5±4.4)°, (34.9±4.5)°, and (42.9±4.9)°] were lower than those preoperatively [(32.9±6.4)° and (13.4±4.9)°], and decreased with the passage of follow-up time ( P<0.01); the HHS [(58.1±4.9)points, (83.1±2.9)points, and (90.7±2.6)points] were higher than that preoperatively [(33.4±4.4)points], and increased with the passage of follow-up time ( P<0.01). At the last follow-up, 5 patients were rated as excellent, 11 as good, and 2 as fair according to the HHS criteria, with an overall excellent and good rate of 89%. No perioperative complications were observed, including neurovascular injury, secondary fracture, or infection. One patient developed partial deep vein thrombosis of the lower extremity (the popliteal vein) at 2 weeks after surgery, which recovered completely following treatment with a standard oral administration of rivaroxaban, etc. At the last follow-up, no evidence of malunion, prosthesis loosening, subsidence, or dislocation was observed. Conclusion:The use of cementless long-stem THA in the treatment of end-stage ONFH combined with ipsilateral subtrochanteric fractures has advantages of small trauma, early weight-bearing, early pain relief, improved joint motion and function, and few complications.

Objective:To investigate the incidence, drug sensitivity and drug resistance characteristies, and theraputic effect of staphylococcal peritoneal dialysis-associated peritonitis (PDAP), aim to provide clinical evidences for standardizing treatment therapy of staphylococcal PDAP. Methods:Clinical data of PDAP patients admitted to the Second Hospital of Jilin University, the First Hospital of Jilin University-the Eastern Division, Jilin Central Hospital and Jilin First Automobile Work General Hospital during January 1, 2013 and December 31, 2019 were retrospectively collected. The results of etiology, drug sensitivity and drug resistance of staphylococcal PDAP patients were collected. According to the pathogenic bacteria, patients were divided into staphylococcus aureus group ( n=48) and coagulase-negative staphylococcus group ( n=232). According to the results of methicillin resistance, patients were divided into drug-resistant group ( n=71) and drug-sensitive group ( n=30). The prognosis of antibiotic therapy in each group were compared. Poisson regression was used to test the changing trend of the incidence of staphylococcal PDAP. The changes of drug sensitivity and drug resistance of staphylococcus were compared between 2013 and 2019 by linear trend χ2 test. Results:A total of 1 085 cases of PDAP occurred in 625 patients were screened, and 280 cases of staphylococcal PDAP were finally included. The incidences of staphylococcal PDAP, staphylococcus aureus PDAP and coagulase-negative staphylococcal PDAP were 0.063 times per patient year, 0.010 times per patient year and 0.053 times per patient year respectively. In addition, the incidence of PDAP caused by staphylococcus, staphylococcus aureus and coagulase-negative staphylococcus decreased year by year (all P<0.05). With the change of years, the sensitivity rate of staphylococcus to rifampicin increased, while the sensitivity rate of staphylococcus to moxifloxacin decreased (both P<0.05). The drug resistance rate of staphylococcus to levofloxacin increased ( P<0.05). The staphylococcus aureus group was more prone to refractory PDAP and catheter removal than that in coagulase-negative staphylococcus group, and the recurrence rate was higher than that in coagulase-negative staphylococcus group (all P<0.05). The proportion of vancomycin used during the whole course of antibiotic therapy in drug-resistant group was higher than that in drug-sensitive group ( P<0.05). Conclusions:The incidence of staphylococcal PDAP decreases year by year, and the drug sensitivity characteristics of staphylococcus also change. The therapeutic outcomes of staphylococcus aureus PDAP are worse than that of coagulase-negative staphylococcus.

BACKGROUND: Flap pedicled with nutritional vessels of the cutaneous antebrachial medialis nerve is beneficial for repairing injury of dorsum of hand; but it needs the support from systemic anatomic research on distally based compound flap.OBJECTIVE: To study the anatomic theory of the distally based compound flap pedicled with nutrient vessels of the cutaneous antebrachial medialis nerve -basilic vein.DESIGN: Single sample observation.SETTING: Research Center for Clinical Anatomy, Fuzhou General Hospital of Nanjing Military Area Command of Chinese PLA.MATERIALS: The experiment was carried out at the laboratory for Research Center for Clinical Anatomy, Military Institute of Orthopaedics, Fuzhou General Hospital of Nanjing Military Area Command of Chinese PLA from March to August 2003. A total of 30 upper limbs of adult cadavers perfused with red latex through arteries were provided by Research Center for Clinical Anatomy, Military Institute of Orthopaedics, Fuzhou General Hospital of Nanjing Military Area Command of Chinese PLA. Each cadaver was injected with a mixture of red gelatin to show the branches, distributions and anastomosis of the lesser vessels on the stained small arteries of the finger tips.METHODS: All 30 adult upper limbs were dissected and observed under the microscope based on the pivot point of styloid process of ulna: ①The origins, branches, distribution and anastomosis of nutrient vessels of the inferior 1/3 segment of medial antebrachial cutaneous nerve-basilic vein, and whose blood supply relationship with ulnar periosteal vessels. ②The superficial and deep communicating branches of basilic vein.MAIN OUTCOME MEASURES: ①The origins, branches, distribution and anastomosis of nutrient vessels of medial antebrachial cutaneous nerve, and whose blood supply relationship with vicinal bone and skin. ② The superficial and deep communicating branches of basilic vein.RESULTS: ①The origins of nutrient vessels supplying the inferior 1/3 segment of the lateral antebrachial cutaneous nerve were 5-9 cutaneous branches of ulnar artery with an outer diameter of (0.7±0.3)mm. The ascending and descending branches of wrist superior branches sent out several cutaneous branches nourishing basilic vein, with an outer diameter of (0.6±0.3) mm. Between the position of (6.0-16.0) cm superior to ulnar malleolus, anterior interosseous artery sent out 2-3 perforating bone-skin branches, with an outer diameter of (0.7±0.2) mm; Posterior interosseous artery sent out 1-3 bone-skin perforating branches, with an outer diameter of (0.6±0.3) mm. Both of them were distributed on periosteum and skin of the corresponding area. All above-mentioned cutaneous perforators gave off cutaneous branches, fascia branches, periosteal branches and nutrient vascular branches of cutaneous nerve-superficial vein, and a vessel chain of cutaneous nerve-basilic vein and vascular networks of deep fascia, superficial fascia and periosteum formed. ②Ulnar artery had two accompanying veins, one was grossus, and the other thin. The two veins accompanied along two sides of artery, and the accompanying vein of arterial cutaneous branches infused. Superior wrist cutaneous branches of ulnar artery had two accompanying veins. One pumped into ulnar branch of ulnar vein, and the other one passed through deep fascia, then entered subcutaneous tissue, and straightly pumped into basilic vein. The injected position was (2.3±0.8) cm superior to ulnar malleolus, with an outer diameter of (2.8±0.5) mm.CONCLUSION: The nutrient vessels of medial antebrachial cutaneous nerve-basilic vein and the nutrient vessels of bone and skin are homologous.
