목적 : 진구성 전방 십자 인대 견열 골절의 치료후 임상적, 방사선학적 결과를 평가하고자 하였다. 대상 및 방법 : 손상후 3개월 이상 지난 진구성 전방 십자 인대 견열 골절로 진단 받고 본원에서 치료받은 환자중 2년 이상 추시 관찰이 가능하였던 11예를 대상으로 하였으며 평균 연령은 26세(9-66)이었고 평균 추시 기간은 53개월(24-131)이었다. 수술은 전 예에서 관절경하에 병변의 확인 및 동반 손상의 치료후 관혈적 정복을 통한 내고정이나 골편 제거술을 시행하였다. 고정 방법은 8예에서 견인 봉합술을 2예에서 나사못 고정을 시행하였다. 결과 : Lysholm knee score는 술전 평균 64.3점에서 술후 96.2점으로 호전되었으며, 술전 Lachman 검사상 7예에서 경도의 양성, 4예에서 중등도의 양성 소견을 보였으며 술후 Lachman 검사상 9예는 음성이었으며, 2예에서 경도의 양성소견을 보였다. Meyers와 Mckeever의 평가 기준에 의하면 9예$(81.8\%)$에서 우수, 2예$(18.2\%)$에서 양호의 결과를 보였다. $Telos^{\circledR}$기기를 이용한 건측과의 전방이완도 차이의 평가에서 술전 평균 7.8(10-4)mm의 차이를 보였으며 술후 최종 추시상 평균 2.1(6-0)mm의 차이를 보였다. 결론 : 진구성 전방 십자 인대 견열 골절에 대한 치료에 있어 관절경 검사를 통해 동반 손상의 평가와 관절 절개술을 통해 해부학적 정 복과 고정 또는 골편 제거를 병행함으로서 만족할만한 결과를 얻을 수 있을 것으로 생각된다.

Purpose: We report our results of arthroscopic treatment of symptomatic avulsion fracture of the malleolus in chronic ankle pain, and also analyzed the clinical and radiological features for evaluating the good candidate for arthroscopic treatment. Materials and Methods: Fourteen patients who were diagnosed with intra-articular avulsion fractures of the malleolus received arthroscopic surgery and were followed up for at least a year. The clinical and radiological characters including MRI and arthroscopic findings were reviewed. Clinical assessments were done according to the AOFAS score system. Results: There was a history of inversion type of the injury in most cases and local tenderness of lesion site was a unique. MRI study showed thickened anterior talofibular ligament (ATFL) in 8 cases (57%) and discontinued ATFL in 3 cases (21%). Enhanced signal surrounding soft tissue corresponding to synovial inflammation and impingement was found in 12 cases (86%). Preoperative score of all patients were $74.0{\pm}5.5$, which improved to $89.3{\pm}6.7$ at the follow-up after the treatment (P<0.001). Conclusion: Most patients had history of injury and localized tenderness in the area coinciding with radiological findings. Thickened ATFL and contrast enhancement around the ossicle were frequently found. Symptomatic avulsion fractures of the malleolus associated with the clinical and radiological findings above could be a good candidate for arthroscopic treatment.

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.
