Chronic recurrent TMJ dislocation results in difficulty of mastication, speaking, and swallowing due to the limitation of the mandibular movement. Etiologic factors are considered as the looseness of the capsule and ligaments, the decrease of the articular eminence, condylar morphologic change, muscular disharmony near by TMJ, and the decrease of the vertical length of the mandibular ramus. Treatment approach has been suggested that surgical methods are selected for the correction of the etiologic factors when conservative treatments are not effective. Many surgical methods have been reported such as eminectomy, eminence augmentation, condylotomy, and zygomatic arch down fracture technique. We performed the eminence augmentation through interpositional bone graft in chronic recurrent TMJ dislocation. This method leads to favorable postoperative result without recurrence and complication, so we report the case with related references.

Irreducible dislocation of the distal interphalangeal (DIP) joint is a rare traumatic condition commonly seen in sports injuries. Herein, we present a case with chronic dislocation of the DIP joint caused by high energy trauma accompanied by a fracture of the ipsilateral clavicle. The local deformity resulting from the dislocation can be trivial. Therefore, obtaining radiographs of all the interphalangeal joint injuries, regardless of the findings on inspection, is crucial for accurate diagnosis in the case of high energy trauma. The good functional improvement was obtained by open reduction and temporary wire fixation for 4 weeks.

1984년 부터 1991년까지 영남대학 병원에서 치료한 거골 골절 및 탈구 환자에서 최장 8년에서 최단 1년간 원격 추시하여 다음과 같은 결론을 얻었다. 1. 평균 30세 나이로 활동기 연령군이였으며, 전부 남자이었다. 2. 손상원인은 추락사고가 대부분이었으며, 교통사고, 스포츠손상 순이었다. 3. 거골 골절 및 탈구는 Marti-Weber 방법으로 분류하였으며, Type I 1례, Type II 1례, Type III 4례, Type IV 5례이였다. 4. 치료는 관혈적 정복술 및 내고정술을 6례에서 시행하였고, 나머지 5례는 도수정북솔로 치료하였다. 5. 치료 결과에 대한 평가는 Hawkins 등급 점수표를 이용하여 약 64%의 만족도를 얻을 수 있었으나, Type IV에서 결과가 좋지 않았다. 6. 합병증으로는 무혈성 괴사가 3례, 퇴행성 관절염이 8례, 불유합이 1례로 퇴행성 관절염의 빈도가 약 70%를 차지하였고, 거골하 관절에서 대부분 발생하였다. 7. 관절의 운동범위에서 건측에 비교하여, 족관절은 약 74%에서 유지되었으며, 거골하 관절은 건측에 비해 약 43%로 감소되었다. 이상에서 거골 골절 및 탈구시에는 빠른 관혈적 정복 및 내고정을 실시하고, 술후 적극적인 재활 치료를 하여 무혈성 괴사증이나, 퇴행성 관절염의 합병증을 줄이면 이차적인 수술을 하지 않을 수 있으며, 족관절의 기능도 가능한 유지할 수 있을 것으로 사료된다.

An anterior dislocation of the elbow without a fracture of the olecranon is an extremely rare injury. This paper reports a 36-year-old male who stumbled and fell on his outstretched hand during a soccer game. The anteroposterior and lateral radiographs indicated a simple anterior dislocation of the elbow, which was reduced using a closed method. The elbow joint was stable in the range of motion, but the sensation of the two ulnar digits was still reduced. MRI was useful for the identification of the pathoanatomy. At the follow-up examination three months after the initial trauma, the hypesthesia has fully recovered and the patient regained the full range of the elbow and forearm motion without pain and instability. After 18 months, the patient had a normal elbow function, and could play various sports. If an anterior elbow dislocation is detected early, a closed reduction with careful pathoanatomical considerations would be successful.

Purpose: This study evaluated clinical results, and recommended treatment protocol of traumatic anterior shoulder dislocation in the patients older than 60 years of age. Materials and Methods: Thirty-eight patients with first traumatic anterior shoulder dislocation aged over 60 years were included. The average age was 69.4 (range, 60 to 87 years). There were 8 men (average age of 71.6) and 30 women (average age of 69). Most common cause of injuries was a fall on the outstretched hand. The additional injuries were evaluated using MRI or CT arthrogram in the patients with significant pain and weakness while movements after 2 weeks sling immobilization. Results: Fifteen patients (39%) had rotator cuff tears and 5 patients (14%) had greater tuberosity fractures. The sizes of rotator cuff tears were diverse; 2 partial tears, 1 small tear, 4 medium tears, 3 large tears and 5 massive tears. Among 5 massive cuff tears, 3 patients revealed cuff arthropathy after reduction. 4 patients (11%) had recurrent dislocation more than one time during 1 month after the first dislocation. Bankart lesions revealed in 5 patients and three of them had associated rotator cuff tears. 3 out of 5 patients with Bankart lesions, 13 out of 15 patients with rotator cuff tears and 3 patients with displaced greater tuberosity fracture had operations. Conclusion: The injury mechanism of shoulder dislocation in patients older than 60 years of age seems to have either anterior or posterior mechanism. The diagnosis and treatment should be approached 2 weeks after dislocation.

The fatigue strength of a nickel-base superalloy was studied. Stress-controlled fatigue tests were carried out at $700^{\circ}C$ and 5 Hz using triangular wave forms. In this study, two kinds of testing procedures were adopted. One is the conventional tension-zero fatigue test(R = 0). The other was a procedure in which the maximum stress was held at 1000 MPa and the minimum stress was diverse from zero to 1000 MPa at 24 and $700^{\circ}C$. The results of the fatigue tests at $700^{\circ}C$ indicate that the fracture mechanism changed according to both the mean stress and the stress range. At a higher stress range, ${\gamma}^{\prime}$ precipitates are sheared by a/2<110> dislocation pairs coupled by APB. Therefore, in a large stress range, the deformation occurred by shearing of ${\gamma}^{\prime}$ by a/2<110> dislocations, which brought about crystallographic shear fracture. As the stress range was decreased, the fracture mode gradually changed from crystallographic shear fracture to gradual growth of fatigue cracks. At an intermediate stress range, as it became more difficult for a/2<110> dislocation pairs to shear ${\gamma}^{\prime}$ particles, cracks started to propagate in the matrix, avoiding the harder ${\gamma}^{\prime}$ particles. High mean stress induced creep deformation, that is, ${\gamma}^{\prime}$ particles were sheared by {111}<112> slip systems, which led to the formation of stacking faults in the precipitates. Thus, the change in fracture mechanism brought about the inversion of the S-N curves.

Purpose: The purpose of this study is to retrospectively analyze the clinical results of screws and Kirschner wire (K-wire) fixation in patients with fracture dislocation of Lisfranc joint and the consequence of screw breakage. Materials and Methods: Sixty patients underwent Lisfranc joint open reduction and removal of internal fixators from January 2007 to December 2011. Forty-nine cases (81.7%) underwent operations with screw alone, and 11 cases (18.3%) underwent operations with both screws and K-wires. Type of internal fixators, duration of internal fixator removal, breakage of internal fixators and satisfaction with reduction were investigated. Additionally, American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) midfoot scales were analyzed. Results: The internal fixator was broken in 5 cases (8.3%). The average duration of instrument removal was 154 days in the non-broken screw group and 268.6 days in the broken screw group (p<0.05). The average AOFAS midfoot scale was 77.4 in the non-broken screw group and 74.2 in the broken screw group. The most commonly damaged portion was the first tarsometatarsal (Lisfranc) joint. Conclusion: Treatment with screws and K-wires was effective in patients with fracture dislocation of Lisfranc joint. The appropriate time for screw removal should be considered.
