Purpose: The purpose of this study was to evaluate retrospectively the clinical results of closed reduction and percutaneous screw fixation for unstable injuries on stress radiographs in subtle injuries of Lisfranc joint. Materials and Methods: From June 1997 to March 2003, 6 cases of unstable injuries on stress radiograph in subtle injuries of Lisfranc joint were treated by percutaneous cannulated screw fixation after closed reduction. All cases were injuried by indirect force (twisting injury). The average diastasis between the 1st and 2nd metatarsal base was 3 mm (2-4 mm) on initial nonweight bearing AP radiograph. The average follow-up period was 20 months. Clinical evaluation was assessed according to the American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) midfoot score. Results: The AOFAS midfoot score was average 86 (80-90) points. The average diastasis between 1st and 2nd metatarsal base was 2 mm (1-3 mm) on weight bearing AP radiograph in final follow up. The final diastasis was increased slightly than diastasis in initial postoperative radiographs. But the clinical results were good. There was no correlation between the degree of diastasis and the clinical results. On weight bearing lateral radiograph, the average difference with normal foot in the distance between plantar aspect of 5th metatarsus and medial cuneiform was 2 mm (0-3 mm). One case had mild arthritic change on the radiographs. Conclusion: When the Lisfranc injuries, especially in the subtle injuries were suspicious, the stress views are helpful to assess stability of the Lisfranc injuries and planning of treatment. For unstable injuries on stress radiographs in subtle injuries of Lisfranc joint, closed reduction and percutaneous screw fixation is useful method to expect good clinical results.

Objective : To report a minimally invasive treatment option using percutaneous pedicle screw fixation with adjuvant treatment for metastatic thoraco-lumbar and lumbar spinal tumors. Methods : This is a retrospective study of charts of patients with spinal metastases. All were older than 18 years of age and were considered to have more than 3 months of life expectancy. The patients had single or two level lesions, and compression fracture or impending fracture. Exclusion criterion was metastasis showing severe epidural compression with definite neurological symptoms. Usually spinal segments from one level above to below pathology were stabilized. Visual analog scale (VAS) score for pain assessment and Frankel scale for neurological deficit were used, while pre- and post-operative performance status was evaluated using the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG). Results : Twelve patients (nine men, three women; median age 54.29 years) underwent surgery. All patients presented with back pain with/without radicular pain. There were no early complications and perioperative mortalities. Following surgery, a significant difference between average pre- and post-operative VAS scores was found (p=0.003). Overall, 91.8% of patients (11/12) experienced improvement in their ECOG score post-operatively. The mean ambulation time was 196.9 days [95% confidence interval (CI), 86.2-307.6 days; median, 97 days]. During follow-up, nine patients died and the mean overall survival time in enrolled twelve patients was 249.9 days (95% CI, 145.3-354.4 days; median, 176 days). Conclusion : Minimally invasive treatment using percutaneous pedicle screw fixation with adjuvant treatment is a good alternative treatment option for potential instability of the thoraco-lumbar and lumbar spinal metastasis.
Purpose: To evaluate the results of treatments by percutaneous Acutrak screw fixation for intra-articular joint depression type fracture of calcaneus. Materials and Methods: Thirteen cases with intra-articular joint depression type fracture of calcaneus, from September 2004 to March 2006, were reviewed. There were 9 males and 4 females with 52.5 years old mean age (range: $31{\sim}74$ years old). The average follow-up period was 18 months (range: $8{\sim}32$ months). Steinmann pins and Freers were used for closed reduction. After closed reduction, Acutrak screws and K-wires were inserted. The patients were evaluated with Creighton-Nebraska health foundation assessment sheet for calcaneal fracture, the extent of recovery of Bohler angle, fragment size, and state of subtalar joint. Results: Clinical results according to Creighton-Nebraska health foundation assessment sheet for calcaneal fracture were excellent in 6 cases (46%), good in 4 cases (30%), fair in 2 cases (15%), and poor in 1 case (7%). Average preoperative Bohler angle was $7.6^{\circ}$ (range: $2^{\circ}{\sim}13^{\circ}$). Average postoperative Bohler angle was $24.4^{\circ}$ (range: $4^{\circ}{\sim}33^{\circ}$). There were no soft tissue complications. There were one mild subtalar arthritis and one moderate subtalar arthritis. Conclusion: We think that closed reduction and percutaneous Acutrak screw fixation with or without K-wire is a good option for joint depression type fracture of calcaneus.
Purpose: The purpose of this study is to analyze the clinical and radiological results of minimally invasive percutaneous screw fixation in intra-articular calcaneal fractures and its complications. Materials and Methods: This study is based on 30 intra-articular calcaneal fractures that treated by index operation from June 2005 to November 2006 with at least 6 months follow-up. We assessed the clinical and radiological outcomes and complications. Results: According to Sanders classification, there were 8 in type IIA, 7 in type IIB, 3 in type IIIAB, 6 in type IIIBC, 6 in type IV. And according to Essex-Lopresti classification, there were 9 in the tongue type, 21 in the joint depression type. Average follow-up period was 14.6 months (range: 6-23 months). Average interval between from injury to operation was 2.3 days. Average AOFAS score was 87.7 (range: 52-92). Satisfactory results were obtained in 22 cases (73.3%) by AOFAS score and in 20 cases (66.7%) by VAS score (mean: 3.4). Radiological results improved from 8.7 to 20.3 degrees in the Bohler angle and from 40.2 mm to 52.1 mm in calcaneal height. Postoperative complications were 2 skin and soft tissue problems and 1 sural neuropathy. Conclusion: Minimally invasive percutaneous screw fixation may be useful alternative surgical method in the management of Sanders type II and III calcaneal fractures, which is possible to achieves the anatomical restoration and minimizes postoperative complication in patients with high risks of soft tissue compromise and allows relatively early operation.
Purpose: To evaluate the results of treatments by percutaneous Acutrak screw fixation for intra-articular tongue type fracture of calcaneus, especially in elderly patient or patients with underlying disease including diabetes mellitus. Materials and Methods: Seven cases with intra-articular tongue type fracture of calcaneus, from November 2003 to February 2005, were reviewed. There were 6 males and 1 female with 65 years old mean age (range: $61{\sim}71$ years old). The average follow-up period was 16 months (range: $10{\sim}25$ months). Two Steinmann pins were used for closed reduction. After closed reduction was done like Essex-Lopresti's method, two Acutrak screws were inserted. The third Acutrak screw was inserted at the sustentaculum tali away from sinus tarsi to fix the primary fracture line. The patients were evaluated with Salama scale, the extent of recovery of Bohler angle, state of subtalar joint. Results: Clinical results according Salama scale were excellent in 5 cases, and good in 2 cases. Average preoperative Bohler angle was $13^{\circ}$ (range: $12{\sim}15^{\circ}$). Average postoperative Bohler angle was 31o (range: $23^{\circ}-40^{\circ}$). There were no soft tissue complications. There were two mild subtalar arthritis. Conclusions: We think that percutaneous Acutrak screw fixation is a good option for tongue type fracture of calcaneus in elderly patient or patients with underlying disease including diabetes mellitus.

Objective : There are technical limitations of multi-level posterior pedicle screw fixation performed by the percutaneous technique. The purpose of this study was to describe the surgical technique and outcome of minimally invasive multi-level posterior lumbar interbody fusion (PLIF) and to determine its efficacy. Methods : Forty-two patients who underwent mini-open PLIF using the percutaneous screw fixation system were studied. The mean age of the patients was 59.1 (range, 23 to 78 years). Two levels were involved in 32 cases and three levels in 10 cases. The clinical outcome was assessed using the visual analog scale (VAS) and Low Back Outcome Score (LBOS). Achievement of radiological fusion, intra-operative blood loss, the midline surgical scar and procedure related complications were also analyzed. Results : The mean follow-up period was 25.3 months. The mean LBOS prior to surgery was 34.5, which was improved to 49.1 at the final follow up. The mean pain score (VAS) prior to surgery was 7.5 and it was decreased to 2.9 at the last follow up. The mean estimated blood loss was 238 mL (140-350) for the two level procedures and 387 mL (278-458) for three levels. The midline surgical scar was 6.27 cm for two levels and 8.25 cm for three level procedures. Complications included two cases of asymptomatic medial penetration of the pedicle border. However, there were no signs of neurological deterioration or fusion failure. Conclusion : Multi-level, minimally invasive PLIF can be performed effectively using the percutaneous transpedicular screw fixation system. It can be an alternative to the traditional open procedures.
Purpose: To evaluate the results of the treatment of the supracondylar fractures of the humerus according to the fixation methods in adults Materials and Methods: Seven patients, aged 55 to 52 years (average,69 years), were reviewed after a mean follow-up of 37 months (range, 11-65 months). According to AO classification all fractures were classified as type A2 (simple transverse supracondylar fracture). Six patients underwent closed reduction and one patient, open reduction after failure of closed reduction. Percutaneous fixation with cannulated screws was performed to the 4 patients, per- cuta)leous fixation with Kirschner wires in 3 patients. All except one patients have associated medical problems. The results were assessed based on the Mayo Elbow Performance Score. Results: All the patients with cannulated screw fixation had stable bony union with excellent ranges of motion (mean: 5-125 degrees). All the three patients who received percuatnaous smooth K-wire fixation had nonunion with poor results, one of them had changed into cannulated screw. and then had good result. Conclusion: Although simple supracondylar fracture is similar to the pediatric fracture in nature, it should be firmly fixed with the method such as threaded cannualted screw rather than the simple fixation with K-wires.

Objective : Percutaneous pedicle screw (PPS) fixation is a needle based procedure that requires fluoroscopic image guidance. Consequently, radiation exposure is inevitable for patients, surgeons, and operation room staff. We hypothesize that reducing the production of radiation emission will result in reduced radiation exposure for everyone in the operation room. Research was performed to evaluate reduction of radiation exposure by modifying imaging manner and mode of radiation source. Methods : A total of 170 patients (680 screws) who underwent fusion surgery with PPS fixation from September 2019 to March 2020 were analyzed in this study. Personal dosimeters (Polimaster Ltd.) were worn at the collar outside a lead apron to measure radiation exposure. Patients were assigned to four groups based on imaging manner of fluoroscopy and radiation modification (pulse mode with reduced dose) : continuous use without radiation modification (group 1, n=34), intermittent use without radiation modification (group 2, n=54), continuous use with radiation modification (group 3, n=26), and intermittent use with radiation modification (group 4, n=56). Post hoc Tukey Honest significant difference test was used for individual comparisons of radiation exposure/screw and fluoroscopic time/screw. Results : The average radiation exposure/screw was 71.45±45.75 µSv/screw for group 1, 18.77±11.51 µSv/screw for group 2, 19.58±7.00 µSv/screw for group 3, and 4.26±2.89 µSv/screw for group 4. By changing imaging manner from continuous multiple shot to intermittent single shot, 73.7% radiation reduction was achieved in the no radiation modification groups (groups 1, 2), and 78.2% radiation reduction was achieved in the radiation modification groups (groups 3, 4). Radiation source modification from continuous mode with standard dose to pulse mode with reduced dose resulted in 72.6% radiation reduction in continuous imaging groups (groups 1, 3) and 77.3% radiation reduction in intermittent imaging groups (groups 2, 4). The average radiation exposure/screw was reduced 94.1% by changing imaging manner and modifying radiation source from continuous imaging with standard fluoroscopy setting (group 1) to intermittent imaging with modified fluoroscopy setting (group 4). A total of 680 screws were reviewed postoperatively, and 99.3% (675) were evaluated as pedicle breach grade 0 (<2 mm). Conclusion : The average radiation exposure/screw for a spinal surgeon can be reduced 94.1% by changing imaging manner and modifying radiation source from real-time imaging with standard dose to intermittent imaging with modified dose. These modifications can be instantly applied to any procedure using fluoroscopic guidance and may reduce the overall radiation exposure of spine surgeons.
Purpose: Posteroanterior screw fixation is biomechanically stronger than anteroposterior screw fixation. However, there are few literature about the correlation between clinical results and more strength by posteroanterior fixation. This study was performed to evaluate the clinical outcomes of the accelerated rehabilitation following anterior open reduction and posterior percutaneous screw fixation for displaced talar neck fractures. Materials and Methods: Eighteen cases were followed up for more than 1 year after posteroanterior fixation using headless compression screw for talar neck fractures. The clinical evaluation was performed according to American Orthopaedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS) score and Hawkins criteria. As radiographic evaluation, the degree of fracture displacement, period to union, and occurrence rate of complications such as avascular necrosis through MRI were measured. Results: The AOFAS score was average 90.4 points at the last follow-up. There were 7 excellent, 9 good, and 2 fair results according to the Hawkins criteria. Therefore, 16 cases(88.8%) achieved satisfactory results. The degree of fracture displacement had improved significantly from preoperative average 5.6 mm to 1.2 mm immediate postoperatively, and maintained to 1.1mm at the last follow-up. All cases achieved bone union, and the period to union was average 12.4 weeks. There were 3 cases of avascular necrosis of talar body and 2 cases of post-traumatic arthritis. Conclusion: Anterior open reduction and posterior percutaneous headless screw fixation seems to be an effective surgical method for displaced talar neck fractures, because of the possibility of accurate restoration of articular surface, fixation strength enough to early rehabilitation, and needlessness of hardware removal.
Objective : The surgical outcome of anterior lumbar interbody fusion[ALlF] with pedicle screw fixation for elderly isthmic spondylolisthesis was analyzed. Methods : Consecutive nineteen elderly patients [aged 65 years or more] with isthmic spondylolisthesis [Grade I or II] who underwent single level ALIF with pedicle screw fixation in 2002 were analyzed. Using clinical chart and mailed questionnaires, preoperative and postoperative Visual Analogue Scale[VAS] of back and leg pain and postopertive Macnab criteria were evaluated. Results : The mean age at the time of operation was 68.4 years [range 65 to 78 years]. Twelve patients underwent ALIF with percutaneous pedicle screw fixation. Seven patients underwent ALIF followed by posterior decompression and pedicle screw fixation. The postoperative complication rate was 10.5% [wound dehiscence in 1 patient and incisional hernia in 1 patient]. There was no postoperative major morbidity or mortality. At a mean follow-up duration of 30.7 months [range 25 to 35 months], 93.3% [14/15] of the patients showed excellent or good outcomes in terms of Macnab criteria. The mean VAS scores of back pain and leg pain significantly decreased after surgery. Conclusion : ALIF with pedicle screw fixation yielded favorable results for elderly isthmic spondylolisthesis in selected cases.
