대퇴골과 박리성 골연골염의 치료

Treatment of Osteochonritis Dissecans of Femoral Condyle

목적 : 슬관절박리성골연골염환자에서나이, 병변의형태, 치료방법에따른임상결과를분석하고자하였다. 대상및방법 : 1991년3월부터2000년2월까지슬관절박리성골연골염으로치료받은환자중1년이상추시관찰가능한17명20예를대상으로 하였으며양측성이3명이었고, 스포츠손상(9예) 및 직접외상(3예) 병력을 가진 12예(60$\%$)에서 외상의 병력이 있었다. 증상은 동통, 탄발음, 잠김, 허약감 등의 순서였으며 동통이 전예에서 있었다. 임상평가는Hughston 평가와IKDC주관적만족도를사용하였다. 결과 : 17명의환자에서남자는1 2명, 여자5명, 평균연령은19.8세(11세$\~$50세)였다. 병변위치는대퇴골내과관절면이14예, 외과관절면이6예였고관절경을시행한 15예에서관절경소견상골연골편의조기분리6예, 부분분리4예, 완전분리5예로 나타났다. 치료는다발성천공술시행5예, Herbert 나사못고정5예, Herbert 나사못고정및골이식술을3예에서시행하였고, 보존적치료는진행초기인7예에서시행하였다. 임상평가는Hughston 평가에서우수6예(30$\%$), 양호9예(45$\%$)로75$\%$에서 양호한성적을보였으며IKDC 주관적평가상정상1예(5%$\%$, 비교적정상6예(30$\%$), 비정상10예(50$\%$)로나타났다. 결론 : 슬관절박리성골연골염에서외상이발병의중요요인이었으며, 나이가어린학동기군에서청소년기나성인에비해우수한 치료결과를보여가능한조기 진단이필요할것으로생각된다. 주관적기능 평가가Hughston 기능평가보다 낮았으며 이는청소년기때활동제한, 스포츠활동참여의제한으로인한것으로사료된다.

Purpose : To analyze the clinical results of treatment for the osteochondritis dissecans of femoral condyle by age, the type of lesion and method of treatment. Methods : From March 1991 to February 2000, 17 patients (20 cases) with osteochondritis dissecans of the femoral condyle were followed up over 1 year. Three patients had bilateral lesion. There were 12 cases with trauma history (9 cases with sports injury and 3 cases with direct trauma). The initial symptoms were pain, clicking, locking, giving way in the order of frequency, pain was revealed in all cases. Clinical evaluation of IKDC and Hughston method were used for subjective and objective function. Results : The number of male patient was 12, and the mean age was 19.8 year old (11$\~$50). The location of the lesion was 14 cases in medial femoral condyle and 6 cases in lateral femoral condyle. The arthroscopic findings of the lesion in 15 cases were as follows, early separation in 6 cases, partially detachment in 4 cases, and crators and complete detachment in 5 cases. 5 cases were treated with mutiple drilling and 5 cases with Herbert screw fixation, 3 cases with Herbert screw fixation and bone graft. In early stage, 7 cases were treated with conservative method. In the grading of Hughston score, 6 cases were graded as excellent, 9 cases as good, 15 cases were graded as good to excellent. Based on the IKDC scale, 1 case was graded as normal, 6 as nearly normal, and 10 as abnormal. Conclusions : The trauma seemed to be important factor in occurrence of osteochondritis dissecans of the femoral condyle. The clinical results of juvenile period showed better than adolescence and adult period, it is necessary to detect the lesion as soon as possible. The result of subjective evaluation was worse than the Hughston evaluation. It was caused by limiting involvement of sports activity and limited activity in the adolescence.
