Concomitant rupture of the subclavian vessels and the left main bronchus caused by blunt trauma is a serious condition. Moreover, the diagnosis of a tracheobronchial injury with rupture of the subclavian vessels can be difficult. This report describes the case of a 33-year-old man who suffered from blunt trauma that resulted in the rupture of the left subclavian artery and vein. The patient underwent an operation for vascular control. O n postoperative day 3, the left main bronchus was found to be transected on a computed tomography scan and bronchoscopy. The transected bronchus was anastomosed in an end-to-end fashion. He recovered without any notable problems. Although the bronchial injury was not detected early, this case of concomitant rupture of the great vessels and the airway was successfully treated after applying extracorporeal membrane oxygenation.

Anterior tibialis ruptures are a rare type of injury related to the foot and ankle. Specifically, chronic and non-traumatic ruptures are related to preexisting chronic tendinopathic conditions and anatomical factors. These ruptures may cause persistent pain and functional impairments if neglected. Chronic tibialis anterior ruptures are frequently diagnosed late because the symptoms are not distinct. In cases with chronic or non-traumatic tibialis anterior tendon ruptures, tendons often become irreparable. Hence, various surgical options have been introduced to address this issue. The current surgical treatment options are as follows: free sliding anterior tibialis graft, extensor hallucis longus tendon transfer, and reconstruction with an allograft tendon. To date, there have been few reports about the reconstruction technique using Z-plasty for irreparable tibialis anterior tendon ruptures. In this report, we present a rare case of the application of the tibialis anterior tendon reconstruction technique using Z-plasty and tenodesis for a middle-aged man with an irreparable avulsion injury rupture. We also present the management plan and prognostic outlook, as well as a subsequent review of the relevant literature.

대퇴직근은 슬관절을 신전하고 고관절을 굴곡하는 근육이며, 빠르고 강한 수축을 하는 제 2형 근섬유로 이루어져 있으며 두개의 관절을 거치므로, 운동 경기 중에 근위부 대퇴직근의 손상이 흔히 발생할 수 있다. 소아에서 발생하는 전하장골극에서의 대퇴직근 견열 골절이 가끔 보고가 되고 있고, 성인에서의 대퇴직근 근위부의 근-건 결합부 완전 파열은 반복적인 운동에 의해 드물게 발생하며, 외상과 관련이 없는 경우 대퇴부에서의 연부조직 종양으로 오인될 수 있다. 그러나, 릴레이 경주 중에 대퇴직근 근위부의 기시부가 급성으로 완전 파열된 예는 아직까지 보고된 바가 없다. 이에 저자들은 릴레이 경주 중에 발생한 중년 남성의 대퇴직근 기시부의 급성 완전 파열에 대하여 자기공명영상을 통하여 확인한 후 수술적 치료를 시행하였으며, 이를 문헌 고찰과 함께 보고하고자 한다.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to analyze the frequency and patterns of intra-articular lesions detected during ankle fracture surgery using ankle arthroscopy. Materials and Methods: Thirty patients (31 ankles) who underwent open reduction and internal fixation combined with ankle arthroscopy for acute ankle fracture at Inje University Busan Paik Hospital from June 2011 to September 2013 were evaluated. The ankle fractures were classified according to the AO/OTA (AO Foundation and Orthopaedic Trauma Association) classification and the intraarticular injuries were identified by ankle arthroscopy. Osteochondral lesions of the talus were divided into nine subtypes based on their locations, and the ligament injuries were classified according to avulsion fracture and rupture. Results: Using arthroscopy, abnormality in the distal tibiofibular ligament was found in 21 cases and osteochondral lesions and defects of the talus larger than 5 mm were detected in 26 cases. Among ligament injuries, anterior inferior tibio-fibular ligament injury was found in 14 cases, posterior inferior tibio-fibular ligament injury was found in two cases, deep deltoid ligament injury was found in three cases, and deep transverse tibio-fibular ligament injury was found in five cases. The locations of the osteochondral lesions were on the antero-lateral, antero-medial, centro-medial, centro-central, centro-lateral, and postero-lateral talus in 11, one, two, one, two, and nine cases, respectively. Conclusion: With early diagnosis and treatment arthroscopy performed at the time of intra-articular fracture surgery is expected to result in a good outcome.

In adults, mallet finger is a traumatic zone I lesion of the extensor tendon with either tendon rupture or bony avulsion at the base of the distal phalanx. High-energy mechanisms of injury generally occur in young men, whereas lower energy mechanisms are observed in elderly women. The mechanism of injury is an axial load applied to a straight digit tip, which is then followed by passive extreme distal interphalangeal joint (DIPJ) hyperextension or hyperflexion. Mallet finger is diagnosed clinically, but an X-ray should always be performed. Tubiana's classification takes into account the size of the bony articular fragment and DIPJ subluxation. We propose to stage subluxated fractures as stage III if the subluxation is reducible with a splint and as stage IV if not. Left untreated, mallet finger becomes chronic and leads to a swan-neck deformity and DIPJ osteoarthritis. The goal of treatment is to restore active DIPJ extension. The results of a six- to eight-week conservative course of treatment with a DIPJ splint in slight hyperextension for tendon lesions or straight for bony avulsions depends on patient compliance. Surgical treatments vary in terms of the approach, the reduction technique, and the means of fixation. The risks involved are stiffness, septic arthritis, and osteoarthritis. Given the lack of consensus regarding indications for treatment, we propose to treat all cases of mallet finger with a dorsal glued splint except for stage IV mallet finger, which we treat with extra-articular pinning.

The purpose of this report Is to discribe the radiological findings of traumatic elbow luxation and subluxation of carpal joint which were caused by being hit by a wild animal and forced hyperextension of carpus in two hunting dogs. In case 1, carniocaudal and mediolateral radiographic examination of the elbow joint revealed that the radius that the radius and ulna were completely luxated laterally. The lateral projection showed the humeral condyles overlying the radial head with an absent joint space, but displacement is apparent on the craniocaudal projection. Incidence of collateral ligament rupture in conjunction with elbow luxation was not recognized on physical examination of the limb after closed reduction. Radiographic examination of the elbow made 5 months after closed reduction revealed only mild degenerative joint disease. Radiographic examination of the carpus in case 2 demonstrated palmar subluxation of most carpal joints including antebrachiocarpal, mediocarpal carpometacarpal joints, and some intercarpal joints, and avulsion fracture of the palmar surface of the accessory carpal bone. However, the mediocarpal and carpometacarpal joints were most severely affected by tensile forces of hyperextension, and it was concluded that the ligaments of the middle ca,pal joints and carpometacarpal joints as well as the palmar fibrocartilage were ruptured based on clinical and radiographic findings. In elbow luxation and subluxation of carpal Joints of the dog, differentiation of the joint or joints involved, and ligamentous structures damaged is important in determining whether surgery Is necessary and which procedure is most appropriate. And the radiographic findings of these conditions would be of help to practitioners.

목적: 요수근 관절 탈구는 고에너지 손상에 의해 발생하며 요골 경상돌기 골절 및 단요월상인대 손상을 동반한다. 단요월상인대는 요골 부착부에서 파열되기도 하지만 요골 월상골와의 전방연에서 견열 골편을 동반하여 발생하기도 한다. 이 연구의 목적은 요골 경상돌기 골절이 동반된 요수근 관절 탈구에서 단요월상인대의 손상 형태 및 치료 방법에 따라 결과의 차이가 있는지 알아보고자 한다. 대상 및 방법: 요수근 관절 탈구로 수술을 시행한 18명을 대상으로 하였다. 요수근 관절 탈구는 Dumontier 등의 방법을 이용하여 Group 1 (순순한 탈구 또는 요골의 작은 견열 골절)과 Group 2 (주상골와의 1/3 이상을 침범한 요골 경상돌기 골절)로 분류하였다. Group 2는 단요월상인대의 부착부가 파열되거나 작은 견열 골절을 동반한 경우를 2A, 비교적 큰 견열 골절을 동반하여 내고정이 가능한 경우를 2B로 분류하였다. 전자는 단요월상인대의 직접 봉합으로, 후자는 작은 나사를 이용한 견열 골편의 내고정으로 치료하였다. 최종 추시에서 통증, 관절 운동 범위와 파악력, 영상 검사를 확인하였다. 치료 결과는 patient-rated wrist evaluation(PRWE), modified Mayo wrist score (MMWS)를 이용하여 평가하였다. 결과: 모든 증례는 Group 2 (2A 6명, 2B 12명)로 분류되었다. 굴신 운동 범위는 건측의 79%, 파악력은 72.9%를 보였다. Group 2A가 2B보다 신전/굴곡/회전에서 더 큰 운동 범위를 보였다. 요사위/척사위/회외전과 통증, 파악력 회복은 차이는 없었다. PRWE, MMWS에서는 두 군의 차이가 없었다. 합병증으로 외상성 관절염 7예, 관절 불안정 5예가 있었다. 결론: 단요월상인대가 손상될 때 요골 월상골와의 전방연에서 발생한 견열 골절은 치료 결과에 영향이 없었다. 그러나 견열 골편이 전위되거나 회전되어 탈구의 정복을 방해하기 때문에 주의해야 하며, 골편에 부착하는 단요월상인대의 기능을 복원하기 위해 해부학적 정복과 견고한 내고정이 필요하다.

Purpose: Severe abdominal injuries often require immediate clinical assessment and surgical intervention to prevent life-threatening complications. In Jeju Regional Trauma Center, we have instituted a protocol for emergency department (ED) laparotomy at the trauma bay. We investigated the mortality and time taken from admission to ED laparotomy. Methods: We reviewed the data recorded in our center's trauma database between January 2020 and December 2022 and identified patients who underwent laparotomy because of abdominal trauma. Laparotomies that were performed at the trauma bay or the ED were classified as ED laparotomy, whereas those performed in the operating room (OR) were referred to as OR laparotomy. In cases that required expeditious hemostasis, ED laparotomy was performed appropriately. Results: From January 2020 to December 2022, 105 trauma patients admitted to our hospital underwent emergency laparotomy. Of these patients, six (5.7%) underwent ED laparotomy. ED laparotomy was associated with a mortality rate of 66.7% (four of six patients), which was significantly higher than that of OR laparotomy (17.1%, 18 of 99 patients, P=0.006). All the patients who received ED laparotomy also underwent damage control laparotomy. The time between admission to the first laparotomy was significantly shorter in the ED laparotomy group (28.5 minutes; interquartile range [IQR], 14-59 minutes) when compared with the OR laparotomy group (104 minutes; IQR, 88-151 minutes; P<0.001). The two patients who survived after ED laparotomy had massive mesenteric bleeding, which was successfully ligated. The other four patients, who had liver laceration, kidney rupture, spleen injury, and pancreas avulsion, succumbed to the injuries. Conclusions: Although ED laparotomy was associated with a higher mortality rate, the time between admission and ED laparotomy was markedly shorter than for OR laparotomy. Notably, major mesenteric hemorrhages were effectively controlled through ED laparotomy.
