In this paper, three-dimensional finite element analysis have been performed to investigate the biomechanics of vertebroplasty in patient. In order to apply various properties of the spine, the functional relation between the well-known apparent density and HU(Hounsfield unit) from CT image were employed and thus real material property can be assigned to each element of FE model. The FE analysis showed similar results with the experiments. With this approach accurate analysis of the spine and the clinical application can be expected.

The purpose of this study is to report the effectiveness of Fire needling therapy in patients with a vertebral compression fracture. Three patients with a acute vertebral compression fracture were treated using Fire needling therapy. To evaluate the effectiveness of Fire needling therapy, we checked Numerical rating scale on a daily and Oswestry disability index on admission and discharge. Numerical rating scale decreased as the number of Fire needling therapy increased. Oswestry disability index on discharge improved compared to admission. The limitation of this study is the insufficient number of cases and outcome measurements. Further studies are needed to prove effect and safety.

The compressed fracture of spine caused by osteoporosis is one of the most frequent diseases in bone fracture. Recently the vertebroplasty has drawn much attention as a medical treatment for the compressed fracture of spine, which strengthens the vertebral body and corrects deformity, and relieves pain in patients by injecting bone cement. The finite element analysis is used to investigate the vertebroplasty quantitatively. Previous works with finite element analysis have drawbacks in their simplified models geometry of vertebral body and with material properties of bone. In this paper the exact geometry of vertebral body has been constructed from medical image data and the biomechanical property changes of vertebral body in vertebroplasty have been investigate by using three dimensional finite element analysis.

Cases of pyogenic spondylodiscitis are relatively rare diseases that concern 2-7% of total cases of osteomyelitis. Owing to the low frequency and initial nonspecific nature of signs and symptoms, diagnosis is often delayed up to 2-6 months. If the proper treatment is not established due to a diagnostic delay, there is a possibility of a serious neurologic deficit and spinal instability. We report two cases of infectious spondylodiscitis which were misdiagnosed as compression fracture and spinal stenosis respectively. They could be correctly diagnosed after MRI and laboratory test and under the recovery state after an antifungal and antibiotic medication. Special careful attention during the diagnostic procedure is a really important step considering the diagnostic delay and its resultant unsatisfactory outcome.

In this paper, three dimensional finite element analyses have been performed to investigate the biomechanics of vertebroplasty in patient accurate FE models have been constructed from CT images of a PMMA injected vertebra. In order to apply various material properties of the spine(T12), the functional relation between the well known apparent density and HU(Hounsfield unit) from CT image were employed and thus real material properties can be assigned to each element of FE model. The FE analysis showed similar results with the experiments. With this approach accurate analysis of the vertebroplasty and its clinical applications can be expected.

목적: 슬관절 주위 골격의 기초과학을 생체역학을 중심으로 설명하고 빈도가 높은 스포츠 손상들에 대해 기술하고자 한다. 해부 밀 운동학: 슬관절은 순수한 경첩 관절이 아니며 적합하지 않으므로 여섯 방향의 운동이 가능하다. 경골대퇴간 운동역학: 슬관절의 굴곡-신전 축은 시상면에 수직이 아닐 뿐 아니라, 관상면상 관절선과 평행하지 않으므로, 경골대퇴관절은 굴곡 시 내반과 내회전이 동반되고 신전 시에는 외반과 외회전이 동반된다. 슬개대퇴 관절: 슬개대퇴 관절 압박력은 슬관절의 굴곡 각도와 사두고근력에 비례한다 슬개골은 신전기전의 moment arm을 증가시켜 신전기전의 효율을 증대시키고 지렛대 역할을 한다. 슬개골 골절: 비전위성 골절이면서 하지 직거상 운동이 보존된 경우에 비수술적 치료의 적응증이 되며 수술적 치료 시 고정 방법의 선택은 골절 양상에 따라 결정되겠으나 어느 술식을 선택하여도 신전지대의 봉합은 필수적이며 중요하다 슬개골 불안정성: 선행 해부학적 이상을 조사해야 하며 급성 탈구에서도 골연골 골절편이 있거나 재발의 위험이 높은 운동선수에서 인대 봉합을 고려할 수 있다. 비수술적 치료 및 재활에도 불수하고 계속되는 재발성 아탈구나 탈구는 수술이 필요하다 학령기 스포츠 손상: Idiopathic Adolescent Anterior Knee Pain, Osgood-Schlatter Disease, Sinding-Larsen-Johansson Disease 등이 흔하다

목적: 금속 요골두 치환술은 주관절 불안정성을 동반한 고정할 수 없는 분쇄된 요골두 골절의 치료로 최근 다양한 임플란트의 개발로 널리 사용되고 있다. 저자는 금속성 요골두 치환술의 적응증과 국내에 사용중인 임플란트의 종류와 수술 술기를 문헌 고찰과 함께 기술하고자 한다. 대상 및 방법: 요골두 치환술의 주 적응증은 동반된 연부조직 손상으로 인한 주관절의 불안정성이 있고, 요골두의 분쇄 골절로 안정적인 내고정이 불가능한 골절이다. 이러한 경우 과거 시행되었던 요골두 절제술은 많은 합병증의 발생으로 금기시되고 있다. 현재 국내에서는 양극성, 압박 고정 단극성 및 이완 고정 단극성 임플란트의 3종류가 수입되어 사용되고 있다. 요골두 치환술은 궁극적으로 원래의 요골두의 크기와 길이로 복원하는 것이 중요하다. 과도하게 긴 요골두의 삽입은 흔한 합병증으로 수술 시 주의가 필요하다. 결과 및 결론: 요골두 치환술은 적절한 적응증과 정확한 수술 술기로 만족할 만한 임상적 결과를 얻을 수 있다. 향후 장기추시 연구와 다양한 치환물들의 임상적인 비교 연구가 필요하다.

Purpose: To analyze the outcome of distal tibia fracture treated with the Distal Tibia LCP with combination of interfragmentary screw. Materials and Methods: Between January 2008 and March 2012, data of 34 patients with fracture of distal tibia treated with the Distal Tibia LCP with or without combination of interfragmentary screws were reviewed. There were 17 males and 17 females with an average age of 51.8 years (range, 18~77 years). Radiographic union time and time from surgery until ability to full weight bearing were measured and compared. Callus index was measured as quotient of callus thickness and diameter of corticalis both in AP and sagittal direction. Results: 12 fractures were treated with interfragmentary screws and 22 fractures were treated with bridging plate alone. In interfragmentary fixation group, time to full weight bearing was 14 weeks versus 15.75 weeks without screw. Callus index at bearing was not significantly lesser in patients with screw compated with those without, but callus index difference at posterative 4weeks was sigficant. Radiologic union time was 11.3 weeks in interfragmentary fixation group and 12.58 weeks without screw. Conclusion: The osteosynthesis with the Distal tibia LCP with combination of interfragmentary screw seems to be more stable in postoperative 4weeks than Distal tibia LCP alone, expecting to earlier ROM exercise and rehabilitation.
