Abstract

Free functional muscle transfer for brachial plexus injury is one of the alternatives to repair the upper extremity function, where usually one type of muscle is used, the gracillis. The method of using two donor muscles to restore the motor function is worth considering for a better improvement of the quality. A 36 years old man with a complete left brachial plexus injury from C5-T1 due to motorcycle accident. A double free functional muscle transfer was performed using the gracillis muscle and the adductor longus muscle with the arterial source from the thoraco-acromial artery with the phrenic and accessory nerves. The gracillis muscle is used to flex the fingers while the adductor is used for flexing the elbow. A one year post-operative evaluation showed the patient was already capable of flexing his elbow with the muscle score of 3 and also the fingers with the muscle score of 1. The double free functional muscle transfer procedure is effective in achieving the moving function of both the elbow and the hand.

Abstract

Infected non-union is still a challenging orthopedic case to treat. Up until present day, there is no any established protocol to treat infected non-union of femur. Infection at subtrochanter femur specifically poses extra challenge as aforementioned location is affected by great tension and compression force. In this report, we present a 20-yo woman with infected subtrochanter femur following open reduction internal fixation (ORIF)with angle blade plate (ABP) 95o. One stage surgery was performed involving implant removal, debridement, definite external fixation, and antibiotic delivery using modified Lautenbach technique. Four years after trauma, the patient was capable of independent mobilization without aid. No infection recurrence was found, and Haris Hip Score was 91 (excellent). Based on the result of this case, definite external fixation and modified Lautenbach technique in one stage surgery can be a viable option in treating infected non-union of subtrochanter femur.

Abstract

Background: Tuberculosis is one of serious health problems throughout the world, including in Indonesia. The incidence of tuberculosis continue to increase annually, especially the case of bone tuberculosis which is part of tuberculosis extra pulmonary as much as 10-20%.Case: A case report of 2 years old girl, with a neglected posterior hip dextra et causa coxitis tuberculosa dextra in Dr. Soetomo General Hospital, in period October 2013 until September 2015. Data were taken from the retrospective medical record through the anamnesis, physical findings, radiological, and laboratory examinations.Discussion: A 2 years old girl diagnosed as Neglected Posterior Hip dextra et causa Coxitis TB dextra, carried out of open biopsy, debridement, and open repositioning through the anterior approach Smith Peterson. Do installation of K-Wires and external fixation with hemispica. Given anti-tuberculosis drug for 12 months. In the monitoring for 2 years post-operatively, the patient reported an improvement.Conclusion: Hip Tuberculosis have a variety of mànifestasi similar to other diseases. Biopsy of the bone tissue lesions is a gold standard diagnosis for coxitis TB. However interpretation of the early picture of pelvic radiology can be a predictor outcome in the case of coxitis TB.

Abstract

Background: The high number of knee osteoarthritis cases could lead arthroplasty more frequent. Total Knee Replacement (TKR) surgery procedure is at risk of massive bleeding. Bleeding can affect albumin levels and the onset of intra-compartment pressure on the nerves. The use of tranexamic acid could be done to reduce bleeding.Objective: Proving the effect of intravenous tranexamic acid administration on patients who will undergo TKR surgery.Methods: The experiment was conducted experimentally using primary laboratory data obtained before and after surgery in patient which will be performed TKR operation starting from April 2017.Result: There are 64 patients who had undergone total knee replacement surgery. The mean preoperative hemoglobin in the tranexamic acid group and without tranexamic acid was 13.06±1.46g/dl and 12.44±0.87g/dl. The mean hemoglobin after surgery was 10.29 ±1.14 g/dl and 9.16±0.97 g/dl. In the group receiving tranexamic acid, 32 (100%) reported low postoperative VAS scores, did not require blood transfusions and did not require albumin transfusion. Groups not receiving tranexamic acid, 32 (100%) moderate postoperative VAS scores, 4 people (12.5%) required the blood transfusion, and 3 (9.4%) required transfusion of albumin.Conclusion: The results of this study showed that the group given tranexamic acid had higher hemoglobin levels after surgery than the untreated group of tranexamic acid; there was no difference in albumin levels after surgery in both groups; the administration of tranexamic acid will decrease the amount of blood loss, decrease the degree of pain, and decrease the need for blood transfusions after total knee replacement surgery.

Abstract

Background: Congenital Scoliosis (CS) defined as vertebral lateral deviation which forms during the intrauterine embryonic phase, carrying incidence between 0,5-1 per 1000 births. Mortality rate increases in untreated case, especially due to pulmonary problem (40%).Contents: CS can range from hemivertebrae (HV) which may be single or multiple, vertebral bar with or without HV, block vertebrae, wedge shaped or butterfly vertebrae. The risk factors for progression include: type of defect, site of defect, and the patient’s age. Plain radiographs remain standard diagnosis. MRI evaluation should be considered. The goal of managing CS is to obtain a balanced trunk and spine while maintaining as much normal spinal growth as possible and preventing neural deficit. Non-operative management is including observation, brace, and traction. The operative procedures are broadly divided into (a) those preventing further deformity: in situ fusion, convex hemiepiphysiodesis, and HV excision, (b) those that correct the present deformity: hemiepiphyseodesis & hemiarthrodesis, single & dual growing rods, HV excision, and reconstructive osteotomy.Conclusion: The treatment of CS remains one of the more challenging aspects of pediatric orthopaedic surgery. Operative treatment should be reserved for patients whom non-operative management didn’t meet the criteria or failed.

Abstract

Introduction: Cervical spine is the most mobile part of the human spine, thus making it the most vulnerable compared to all the other vertebral structures. Surgical procedures are usually performed within the first 24 hours, or 4-6 weeks after trauma in order to prevent any secondary trauma. The research was conducted to evaluate the amount of time of the surgical procedure towards the effectivity and improvement of the neurological status in the cervical injury or acute spinal cord injury (ASCI).Methods: A meta-analysis research which evaluate the effectivity of surgical procedure on cervical trauma/ASCI, with the database procured from PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane. The main parameter is the decompression procedure and the clinical outcome which were categorized. The time of surgery or decompression are categorized into “<24 hours” and “>24 hours”, the neurological outcome is categorized into “improvement” and “no improvement”. The data was presented in odd ratio (OR) and confidence interval (CI) and were further analyzed by forest plot.Results: From PubMed, there were 353 articles, Embase 2 articles, and Cochrane 594 articles, but only 3 articles which fulfilled the inclusion criteria. The comparison between the surgical procedure in the cervical <24 hours with the surgical procedure >24 hours was identified for this research. Statistically, there was a significant difference on the neurological status (OR=1,85; 95%CI=1,21-2,84; p<0,01).Conclusion: With meta-analysis background, early decompressive procedure <24 hours for cervical trauma patients produced a significantly better result in improving the neurological status compared to the late decompressive procedure >24 hours.
