We report a case of medial subluxation following minor trauma with no history of previous lateral release. The abnormality was identified on magnetic resonance imaging and was successfully treated by direct repair of the lateral retinaculum. The recognition and treatment of medial subluxation of the patella without retinacular release can be difficult. Therefore, consideration of multiple causes through careful medical history taking, physical examination, and radiologic examination is needed for accurate diagnosis.展开更多

Methods： A total of 60eligible cases were randomly allocated into an observation group and a control group, 30 in each group. Cases in the observation group were treated with conventional tuina plus reduction manipulation of sacroiliac joint subluxation; whereas cases in the control group were treated with conventional tuina plus acupuncture. The clinical effects were observed after 10 times of treatment. In addition, the relapse rates were observed 2 months after treatment. Results： The total effective rate in the observation group was 80.0%, versus 50.0% in the control group, showing a statistically significant difference （P＆lt;0.05）. The relapse rate of lumbosacral pain in the observation group was 12.5%, versus 66.7% in the control group, showing a statistically significant difference （P＆lt;0.01）. The relapse rate of leg length discrepancy in the observation group was 16.7%, versus 80.0% in the control group, showing a statistically significant difference （P＆lt;0.01）. Conclusion： Tuina reduction manipulation can obtain substantial therapeutic effect for leg length discrepancy and lumbosacral pain due to sacroiliac joint subluxation, coupled with a low relapse rate.展开更多

All patients had complete clinical data sets and accounted for 45.5% of the inpatients because of stroke. Results showed that the number of patients with hemiplegic shoulder pain post stroke increased yearly, attacking mainly males 50-69 years of age. Of 106 patients, there were 60 cases （56.6%） of adhesive capsulitis, 19 （17.9%） of shoulder subluxation, 14 （13.2%） of complex regional pain syndrome, and 13 （12.6%） of central pain. The main symptoms were shoulder pain （100%）, limit of shoulder mobility （98.1%）, and adhesion of the scapula （56.6%）. MRI of the shoulder showed tendon and ligament lesions （57.1%） and rotator cuff tear （38.1%）. 53.8% of central pain was related to the thalamus, in addition to the basal ganglia, brain stem, and cerebellopontine angle. Shoulder pain, upper limb motor function, and function independence were significantly improved after comprehensive rehabilitation. In par- ticular, electroacupuncture based on basic physical therapy exhibited efficacy on shoulder subluxa- tion and complex regional pain syndrome. Multiple linear regression results showed a negative re- lationship of efficacy of pain management with the attack period of shoulder pain, involvement of the posterior limb of the internal capsule, and duration between onset and rehabilitation treatment, but a positive correlation with pain-related education, pain regression period, and pain diagnosis.展开更多

Methods: A systematic review was performed for all the published articles in the English language literature on DDH in Saudi Arabia. Data sources were PubMed Medline (1980-2018) (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/), Ovid Medline (1980-2018), EMBASE MEDLINE (1980 to May 2018), EMBASE (1991 to May 2018), the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, the Science Citation Index (1966 to May 2018), published data from the Saudi Medical Journal (1985-2018) and Annals of Saudi Medicine (1985-2018). The author independently reviewed articles and abstracted the data. The key words used were Saudi Arabia developmental dysplasia of the hip ORDDH, congenital hip dislocation or congenital subluxation of the hip, and congenital dysplasia of the hip. Results: The authors identified 18 potentially relevant articles published in the last 38 years, and 10 met the inclusion criteria. The 10 studies analyzed included 2037 studies of infants diagnosed with DDH;and they gave an average incidence of 10.46/1000. Two studies (303 subjects) did not report the affected gender;in the remaining 338 were boys and 1396 were girls and one study did not report the side of affection. The majority presented after 12 months of age. The right side was affected in 532 (27.2%) affected, 734 (37.6%) were left side and 687 (35.2%) infants were affected bilaterally. Consanguinity, breech presentation, and family history were found to be the risk factors in 32.9%, 17.3%, and 23.6% of the patients, respectively. Conclusions: There is paucity of available literature on DDH in Saudi Arabia. New strategies have to be developed that include mandatory screening programs in all hospitals (private and public) so that more children can be treated by nonsurgical methods.展开更多

Longterm complications are well described;however, the acute complication profile is poorly understood. Questions/Purpose: The aim of this study was to identify the rate of and risk factors for complications following surgical treatment of hip subluxation/dislocation, especially as it relate to NM children. Methods: Hip reconstruction cases in patients with a NM diagnosis and non-NM patients were obtained from the 2015 American College of Surgeons NSQIP-Pediatric database by CPT code. 30-day postoperative complications were classified according to the Clavien-Dindo system as minor (grade 1 or 2) or major (grade 3+). Patient and surgical factors were assessed in univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses for association with post-operative complications. Results: 1081 cases were identified (median age 7.7, 55% female), of whom 420 (39%) had a NM diagnosis. Overall complication rate was significantly higher in NM patients (33% vs. 19%, p < 0.001). Numerous factors were associated with postoperative complication on univariate analysis. Multivariate analysis identified NM diagnosis (OR 1.5), age > 6 years (OR 1.5), or pelvic osteotomy (OR 1.9) as independent risk factors for complication. Conclusion: In pediatric reconstructive hip surgery requiring pelvic osteotomy, a NM diagnosis is associated with an increased risk of 30-day postoperative complications. Older age and increasing surgical complexity were also independently associated with complications. These findings support special attention for the older patients undergoing concomitant pelvic osteotomies to minimize complication rate.展开更多

文摘BACKGROUND Atlantoaxial rotatory subluxation(AARS)is an uncommon disease with a greater prevalence among children than adults,and it is mostly associated with trauma.Iatrogenic spinal injury accounts for a low percentage of injuries.However,in AARS,20%-40%of cases are associated with surgery,and 48%are caused by infection.Here,we describe our experience with a case of iatrogenic AARS after general anesthesia.CASE SUMMARY A 12-year-old girl presented with right-sided torticollis and cervical motion limit.The patient had undergone thyroidectomy 2 mo ago.Computed tomography revealed AARS with bilateral locked facets.Following the failure of repeated external reduction under general anesthesia,the patient underwent an open surgical reduction.The patient gained atlantoaxial alignment without any complications.Follow-up radiographs showed a normal appearance without instability.The cervical spine of children is more predisposed to injury due to anatomical and biomechanical differences.AARS secondary to infection and surgery is known as Grisel’s syndrome,which involves non-traumatic AARS.Several cases of AARS after surgery and other procedures with no evidence of inflammation have been reported.Our experience shows that surgery requiring hyperextension of the neck after general anesthesia should also be included as a risk factor.CONCLUSION Surgeons and anesthesiologists should be careful not to excessively extend the neck during pediatric surgery.Moreover,clinicians caring for pediatric patients with recent head and neck procedures must be aware of common AARS presentations.
文摘Most cases of medial patella subluxation occur under iatrogenic conditions that are often associated with a prior excessive lateral retinacular release procedure. We report a case of medial subluxation following minor trauma with no history of previous lateral release. The abnormality was identified on magnetic resonance imaging and was successfully treated by direct repair of the lateral retinaculum. The recognition and treatment of medial subluxation of the patella without retinacular release can be difficult. Therefore, consideration of multiple causes through careful medical history taking, physical examination, and radiologic examination is needed for accurate diagnosis.
文摘Objective: to analyze the effect of extracorporeal shock wave on early shoulder subluxation in elderly stroke patients. Methods: 65 elderly patients with early shoulder subluxation treated in our hospital from April 2019 to July 2022 were observed group and control group according to different treatment methods, with 33 patients with conventional rehabilitation treatment as control group and 32 patients with extracorporeal shock wave treatment as observation group to compare the treatment effect. Results: (1) distance (P> 0.05) from shoulder to humeral head was better than the control group before treatment (P 0.05);(2) the satisfaction in the observation group [30 (93.75%)] was significantly higher than the control group [24 (72.73%)] (P 0.05). Conclusion: the elderly patients with early stroke dislocation can improve the distance from the acromion to the humerus head.
文摘Objective To introduce a new procedure for treatment of rotatory subluxation of the scaphoid.

文摘AIM:To investigate the effect of Cionni-modified capsular tension ring(CTR)implantation in patients with severely traumatic subluxated cataracts.METHODS:All patients who totally had traumatic cataracts and lost zonule support and underwent cataract surgery were retrospectively analyzed.Corrected distance visual acuity(CDVA),extent of zonulysis,intraocular lens(IOL)position,intraoperative presentation,and complications were assessed.The primary outcomes included IOL centration stability and other postoperative complications.RESULTS:Twenty patients(20 eyes)were included in this study.The mean age in this study was 58.0±11.3y,and the average follow-up time was 17.3±12.8mo.Capsule bags were saved by Cionni-modified CTR.Nine eyes(45%)underwent simultaneously anterior vitrectomy due to the presence of vitreous in the anterior chamber.The preoperative mean CDVA was 0.83±0.24 log MAR,and the postoperative average CDVA was 0.23±0.30 log MAR(P<0.05).The horizontal and vertical IOL decentration after surgery was 0.27±0.12 mm and 0.41±0.19 mm,respectively;the vertical and horizontal IOL tilt after surgery was 5.5°±2.5°and 6.1°±2.2°,respectively.None of the eyes had obvious IOL decentration during the follow-up time.Eight eyes(40%)had posterior capsule opacification(PCO)that was severe enough to cause poor vision.Neodymium:YAG laser capsulotomy were performed on these eyes when the CTR was stabilized.CONCLUSION:With the help of Cionni-modified CTR,capsular bag preservation and better IOL concentration can be achieved without major complications in patients with severely traumatic subluxated cataracts.
文摘According to Chinese medicine,the atlantoaxial joint is a composite joint composed of tendons and bones,and the stability of the joint depends on the‘tendon-bone balance’involving tendons,ligaments,atlas and axis.Multiple causes of‘tendon off-position,joint subluxation’will lead to joint‘tendon-bone imbalance’,which will evolve into atlantoaxial subluxation(AAS),endangering human health.Chinese therapeutic massage(tuina)is a very effective treatment for AAS in adults,but conventional manipulations are prone to ineffectiveness or accidents due to neglect of the causal relationship of the‘tendon-bone imbalance’and inappropriate manipulations.Compared with conventional manipulations,the rational choice of modified manipulations under the guidance of‘tendon-bone balance’theory is more effective and less risky,and more worthy of clinical promotion.From the‘tendon-bone balance’theory,we considered the shortcomings of conventional manipulations,and introduced several modified manipulations that have their own strengths in‘tendon smoothing’and‘bone setting’,in order to provide new ideas for treatment of AAS in adults.

文摘Objective： To observe theclinical effect of tuina reduction manipulation on leg length discrepancy and lumbosacral pain due to sacroiliac joint subluxation. Methods： A total of 60eligible cases were randomly allocated into an observation group and a control group, 30 in each group. Cases in the observation group were treated with conventional tuina plus reduction manipulation of sacroiliac joint subluxation; whereas cases in the control group were treated with conventional tuina plus acupuncture. The clinical effects were observed after 10 times of treatment. In addition, the relapse rates were observed 2 months after treatment. Results： The total effective rate in the observation group was 80.0%, versus 50.0% in the control group, showing a statistically significant difference （P＆lt;0.05）. The relapse rate of lumbosacral pain in the observation group was 12.5%, versus 66.7% in the control group, showing a statistically significant difference （P＆lt;0.01）. The relapse rate of leg length discrepancy in the observation group was 16.7%, versus 80.0% in the control group, showing a statistically significant difference （P＆lt;0.01）. Conclusion： Tuina reduction manipulation can obtain substantial therapeutic effect for leg length discrepancy and lumbosacral pain due to sacroiliac joint subluxation, coupled with a low relapse rate.
文摘Purpose:To investigate the characteristics of the onset and treatment of radial head subluxation(RHS)in pediatric clinics and emergency departments.Methods:A retrospective study was performed on 11,404 RHS cases in 9827 children who visited pediatric clinics and emergency departments from January 2015 to December 2018.The patients who with history of trauma and fracture of the affected limb were excluded.The following factors were examined:the mechanisms of RHS,the type of manual reduction,the attending physician's clinical background(emergency surgeon,junior pediatric orthopedic surgeon or senior pediatric orthopedic surgeon),and the epidemiological features(gender,age,climate and location)of the injury.Results:The mean age of the patients was 27.93±17.94 months(range 0.93-214.53 months),with a peak incidence of 10.73-44.53 months.Approximately two-thirds of RHS cases occurred in cold weather from January to March and from September to December.Females accounted for 53.81%(n=6137)of the cases,and left injuries were predominant(56.87%,n=6485)in all cases.Mechanisms of injury were classified as"pull"(90.57%,n=10,339),"fall"(1.56%,n=178),"hit"(0.75%,n=86)and"unknown"(7.02%,n=801).The overall success rate of manual reduction was 99.47%,and the success rate of reduction was higher for senior pediatric orthopedic surgeons than for emergency surgeons and junior pediatric orthopedic surgeons(p<0.05).However,there was still a recurrence rate of 12.16%in the 9827 patients.Conclusion:Younger children are predisposed to RHS,and there is a possibility of recurrence.Trained emergency doctors can handle it well,but it is essential to refer patients to specialists when manual reduction failed.
文摘Ankle snapping occurs when tendons or retinacular structures abruptly move or slip over adjacent anatomical structures,often due to anatomical variations,pathological conditions,or acute injury.This phenomenon can cause pain and discomfort,ranging from mild irritation to debilitating symptoms that potentially disrupt daily activities and athletic pursuits.Considering the anatomy of the ankle,these snapping phenomena can be categorized into four regional groups:(1)Lateral;(2)Medial;(3)Anterior;and(4)Posterior.Lateral ankle snapping,a common occurrence,typically results from peroneal tendon subluxation due to compromise of the superior and inferior peroneal retinacula,or from intrasheath subluxation,characterized by abnormal tendon motion within an otherwise intact retromalleolar groove and retinaculum.Medial ankle snapping primarily affects the posterior tibial tendon and can involve the flexor digitorum longus tendon.Anterior ankle snapping results from abnormal gliding of the tibialis anterior tendon,extensor digitorum longus tendon,peroneus tertius tendon,and inferior extensor retinaculum.Posterior ankle snapping typically involves the plantaris tendon and flexor hallucis longus(hallux saltans).This mini-review comprehensively explores these snapping phenomena and their related pathologies in the foot and ankle,emphasizing the crucial roles of anatomical knowledge,thorough clinical assessment,and appropriate diagnostic and treatment approaches.
文摘AIM:To evaluate the visual and refractive outcomes in cases after sutured scleral fixation of existing subluxated or dislocated acrylic one-piece intraocular lenses(IOLs).METHODS:This study retrospectively enrolled a consecutive series of patients who underwent a surgery of sutured existing subluxated or dislocated IOLs from October 2018 to June 2020.All patients underwent comprehensive preoperative and postoperative ophthalmologic examination,and data were collected including age,sex,surgical indications,best-corrected visual acuity,refractive error,intraocular pressure.Presence of intraoperative and postoperative surgical complications was documented.RESULTS:A total of 20 consecutive cases were enrolled for analysis with mean final follow-up period 9.8±5.3mo.Visual acuity improved from a mean of 0.35(0.46±0.32 logMAR)preoperatively to 0.61(0.21±0.18 logMAR)at the 3-month follow-up(P=0.002).The mean amount of preoperative keratometric astigmatism and total postoperative refractive astigmatism was-1.24±0.80 diopters(D)and-1.42±0.97 D,respectively.There was no statistically significant difference between preoperative and postoperative astigmatism(P=0.156).The mean IOL-induced astigmatism was-0.23±0.53 D.The mean spherical equivalent at the 3-month follow-up was-0.1±0.94 D.No major complications were noted during the follow-up period.CONCLUSION:Surgical techniques using sutured scleral fixation of existing subluxated or dislocated acrylic one-piece IOLs result in favorable visual and refractive outcomes without major complications.

文摘We selected 106 hemiplegic patients with shoulder pain hospitalized after stroke from three hospi- tals in Nanjing, China between February 2007 and January 2012. All patients had complete clinical data sets and accounted for 45.5% of the inpatients because of stroke. Results showed that the number of patients with hemiplegic shoulder pain post stroke increased yearly, attacking mainly males 50-69 years of age. Of 106 patients, there were 60 cases （56.6%） of adhesive capsulitis, 19 （17.9%） of shoulder subluxation, 14 （13.2%） of complex regional pain syndrome, and 13 （12.6%） of central pain. The main symptoms were shoulder pain （100%）, limit of shoulder mobility （98.1%）, and adhesion of the scapula （56.6%）. MRI of the shoulder showed tendon and ligament lesions （57.1%） and rotator cuff tear （38.1%）. 53.8% of central pain was related to the thalamus, in addition to the basal ganglia, brain stem, and cerebellopontine angle. Shoulder pain, upper limb motor function, and function independence were significantly improved after comprehensive rehabilitation. In par- ticular, electroacupuncture based on basic physical therapy exhibited efficacy on shoulder subluxa- tion and complex regional pain syndrome. Multiple linear regression results showed a negative re- lationship of efficacy of pain management with the attack period of shoulder pain, involvement of the posterior limb of the internal capsule, and duration between onset and rehabilitation treatment, but a positive correlation with pain-related education, pain regression period, and pain diagnosis.
文摘Rheumatoid arthritis is a chronic systemic inflammatory disease that often affects the cervical spine.While it was initially thought that cervical involvement was innocuous,natural history studies have substantiated the progressive nature of untreated disease.Over the past 50 years,there has been further elucidation in the pathophysiology of the disease,as well as significant advancements in medical and surgical therapy.The introduction of disease modifying drugs and biologic agents has reduced the amount of patients with advanced stages of the disease needing surgery.Advancement in instrumentation techniques has improved patient outcomes and fusion rates.The introduction of endoscopic approaches for ventral decompression may further lower surgical morbidity.In this review,we give a brief overview of the pertinent positives of the disease.A discussion of historical techniques and the evolution of surgical therapy into the modern era is provided.With improved medical therapies and lessinvasive approaches,we will likely continue to see less advanced cases of disease and less surgical morbidity.Nonetheless,a thorough understanding of the disease is crucial,as its systemic involvement and need for continued medical therapy have tremendous impact on overall complications and outcomes even in patients being seen for standard degenerative disease with comorbid rheumatoid.
文摘AIM To correlate the Pang and Lee class with the clinical course in a consecutive series of patients presenting with painful torticollis.METHODS Forty-seven dynamic rotational computed tomography(CT)scans in 35 patients were classified into one of the five types defined by Pang and Li,including typesⅠ(atlantoaxial rotatopry fixation),Ⅱ("pathologic stickiness"without crossover of C1 on C2),Ⅲ("pathologic stickiness"with crossover of C1 on C2),Ⅳ(normal or muscular torticollis),andⅤ(diagnostic grey zone).The Pang and Li class was then compared with the radiologist's report,which was graded abnormal,diagnosis of rotatory subluxation or fixation,or non-diagnostic.Medical records were reviewed and the clinical course was compared among the five subtypes.RESULTS We reviewed 47 CT scans in 35 patients,and the majority were performed without sedation.The average age was 7.7 years(4-14 years old)and associated conditions included minor trauma(20%),surgical procedures around the head and neck(29%),and Grisels syndrome(20%).Twenty-six percent of our studies fell within the pathologic spectrum(5%type 1 or rotatory fixation,21%types 2 and 3 or rotatory subluxation),while 45%were classified as muscular torticollis(45%)and 28%fell within the diagnostic grey zone.Seven radiologists interpreted these studies,and their interpretation was discordant in 45%of cases.Clinical resolution occurred in 27 of 29 cases for which follow-up was available.One of two patients with fixed rotatory subluxation required a C1-C2 arthrodesis.CONCLUSION The Pang and Li classification characterizes a spectrum of abnormalities in rotation to facilitate communication,although the indications for dynamic CT scan should be further defined.
文摘The objective of this systematic literature review was to assess the incidence of DDH among the Saudi Arabian population. Methods: A systematic review was performed for all the published articles in the English language literature on DDH in Saudi Arabia. Data sources were PubMed Medline (1980-2018) (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/), Ovid Medline (1980-2018), EMBASE MEDLINE (1980 to May 2018), EMBASE (1991 to May 2018), the Cochrane Central Register of Controlled Trials and Cochrane Database of Systematic Reviews, the Science Citation Index (1966 to May 2018), published data from the Saudi Medical Journal (1985-2018) and Annals of Saudi Medicine (1985-2018). The author independently reviewed articles and abstracted the data. The key words used were Saudi Arabia developmental dysplasia of the hip ORDDH, congenital hip dislocation or congenital subluxation of the hip, and congenital dysplasia of the hip. Results: The authors identified 18 potentially relevant articles published in the last 38 years, and 10 met the inclusion criteria. The 10 studies analyzed included 2037 studies of infants diagnosed with DDH;and they gave an average incidence of 10.46/1000. Two studies (303 subjects) did not report the affected gender;in the remaining 338 were boys and 1396 were girls and one study did not report the side of affection. The majority presented after 12 months of age. The right side was affected in 532 (27.2%) affected, 734 (37.6%) were left side and 687 (35.2%) infants were affected bilaterally. Consanguinity, breech presentation, and family history were found to be the risk factors in 32.9%, 17.3%, and 23.6% of the patients, respectively. Conclusions: There is paucity of available literature on DDH in Saudi Arabia. New strategies have to be developed that include mandatory screening programs in all hospitals (private and public) so that more children can be treated by nonsurgical methods.
文摘Background: Surgical treatment for neuromuscular (NM) hip subluxation or dislocation is undertaken to maintain functionality and decrease pain. Longterm complications are well described;however, the acute complication profile is poorly understood. Questions/Purpose: The aim of this study was to identify the rate of and risk factors for complications following surgical treatment of hip subluxation/dislocation, especially as it relate to NM children. Methods: Hip reconstruction cases in patients with a NM diagnosis and non-NM patients were obtained from the 2015 American College of Surgeons NSQIP-Pediatric database by CPT code. 30-day postoperative complications were classified according to the Clavien-Dindo system as minor (grade 1 or 2) or major (grade 3+). Patient and surgical factors were assessed in univariate and multivariate logistic regression analyses for association with post-operative complications. Results: 1081 cases were identified (median age 7.7, 55% female), of whom 420 (39%) had a NM diagnosis. Overall complication rate was significantly higher in NM patients (33% vs. 19%, p < 0.001). Numerous factors were associated with postoperative complication on univariate analysis. Multivariate analysis identified NM diagnosis (OR 1.5), age > 6 years (OR 1.5), or pelvic osteotomy (OR 1.9) as independent risk factors for complication. Conclusion: In pediatric reconstructive hip surgery requiring pelvic osteotomy, a NM diagnosis is associated with an increased risk of 30-day postoperative complications. Older age and increasing surgical complexity were also independently associated with complications. These findings support special attention for the older patients undergoing concomitant pelvic osteotomies to minimize complication rate.
