Effect of surgical treatment for fracture of calcaneus with steel plate
Aim To explore the therapeutic effect of surgical treatment for fracture of calcaneus with steel plate.Methods Between April 2005 and March 2009,19 cases(22 feet) of calcaneal fractures were treated with open reduction and internal fixation with steel plate.According to sanders classification system,there were 16 and 3 feet of typeⅡand type Ⅲ,3 feet both side respectively.Results All the patients were followed up for 6 to 36 months(averaging 18.4 months) after treatment.The results were evaluated using Maryland Foot Score.Excellent results were noted in 10 feet,good in 8,fair in 4,the excellent and good rates were 81.8%.No complications such as wound superfical infection,screw breakage occurred.Conclusion The open reduction and internal fixation is effective for fracture of calcaneus.
Purpose ::: This study focuses on nanoscale self–assembly peptides (SAP) modified demineralized bone matrix (DBM) which provided a more effective osteogenesis and regeneration for critically-sized femur defects in goats using the selective cell retention (SCR) strategy.
