목적: 전이암 혹은 악성 혈액질환에 의한 상완골의 병적골절의 비관혈적 고합성 골수강내 금속정 삽입술에 대한 임상적 및 방사선학적 결과를 분석하였다. 대상 및 방법: 전이암 혹은 다발성 골수종에 의한 상완골 병적골절 혹은 임박골절로 치료받은 29명중 비관혈적 정복 및 고합성 골수강내 금속정 고정술로 치료 받은 13명 16례를 대상으로 병적기록과 방사선 사진을 분석하였다. 통증 완화와 기능 회복의 평가는 Perez 등의 방법을 변형하여 우수, 양호, 보통, 불량으로 하였다. 결과: 원발암은 다발성 골수종 4명, 폐암 3명, 유방암 2명, 그 외에 선암(adenocarcinoma), 신장암, 위암 및 대장암이 각각 1명이었다. 2명에서는 상완골의 병적골절 후 원발암이 진단되었고, 11명에서는 원발암 진단 후 최소 1개월, 최장 10년, 평균 28.9개월에 상완골 병적골절이 발견되었다. 상완골로의 전이가 발견된 후 최단10주(신장암), 최장 4년 7개월(다발성 골수종), 평균 11.7개월간 생존하였다. 상완골 전이 16례중 13례에서 보통이상의 통증 완화와 기능회복을 보였으나, 수술 후 골 파괴가 진행되었거나 동측 수부로 전이한 3례에서는 불량한 결과를 보였다. 이들 3례와 수술 후 3개월 이전에 사망한 3례를 제외한 10례에서 골유합을 얻을 수 있었으며, 수술 후 감염, 신경마비 등 수술과 관계되는 합병증은 없었다. 결론: 전이암 혹은 악성 혈액질환에 의한 상완골 병적골절은 골절전의 기능상태, 원발암의 종류, 예상되는 생존기간, 환자의 전신상태, 전이암의 국소 및 전신 침범정도에 따라 수술방법을 달리해야 할 것으로 사료된다.

Comminuted fracture of the distal end of the humerus in adults is very rare and difficult to treat. In operative treatment, an implant which can achieve accurate anatoraical reduction and rigid fixation is needed. But the pre­existing Y -shaped plate had wide and thick limbs and some problems in fixation for most distal humeral fractures. So we devised a modified plate which is more narrow and th1n and has a different hole distance and wing length (long lateral wing). The aim of the study was to evaluate the clinical result of this modified anatomical Y -plate. From 1991 to 1997, we treated 23 cases of distal humeral fractures using modified anatomical plate and the results were as follows. 1. Fracture type in 18 patients(78%) was C-type(C1,C2,C3) which were intraarticular and mostly displaced or comminuted. 2. Bony union was obtained in 22 patients(96%) through rigid fixation and observed radiologically at 3.5 months(2-6months) on the average. 3. In 23 patients, 19 patients(82%) showed satisfactory results after 34 months(6-73months) follow-up. So if the modified anatomical Y-plate is used in the treatment of distal humeral fracture, a satisfactory result can be obtained through a more accurate, easy, and rigid fixation than preexisting plate.

A 3-year-old, 24-kg intact female Border Collie was referred for a toe-touch weight-bearing stance, intermittent weight-bearing lameness, and moderate pain reaction of the right forelimb on physical examination and right humerus olecranon avulsion fracture on diagnostic imaging examination. Surgical repair was performed using tension band wiring to re-attach the triceps tendon and distal olecranon. Migration of the distal olecranon fragment was observed due to comminuted fracture of the fragment 5-days after surgery, and revision surgery was performed. The tension-relieving sutures were passed through the pre-drilled hole in the olecranon, and the polyester mesh was augmented to the suture region, covering the triceps tendon and olecranon drilling hole using the Krackow suture pattern. The elbow joint was immobilized using a type IA transarticular external fixator, which was removed 8 weeks after surgery. Fourteen weeks after surgery, no lameness was observed on gait evaluation. At follow-up after 7 months, the distal olecranon fragment had stabilized, and no lameness was observed.

Metastatic cancer is the most common tumor of the skeleton. The prevalence of pathologic fracture may increase as patient survival is prolonged by improved cancer therapy. With recent advances in orthopaedic procedure and medical management of terminal cancer patients, it is generally agreed that aggressive treatment should be undertaken for patient with pathologic fracture secondary to metastatic disease, and a team approach should be utilized. The authors have reviewed twenty cases of pathologic fracture of the long bone due to metastatic tumor treated in the Department of Orthopedic Surgery, Yonsei University College of Medicine, from April 1989 to April 1994 and the following results were obtained. 1. The mean age at surgery was 58.4 years (ranged from 24years to 86years) and among 20 cases, 10 cases were male and the others were female. 2. The most frequent site of pathologic fracture in long bone is femur(15 cases, 75%), and followed by humerus(4 cases, 20%), tibia(1 case). 3. The frequently encountered primary tumors that metastases to long bone are those of the lung(7 cases, 35%), breast(4 cases, 20%), and prostate(2 cases, 10%). 4. The operative procedure was performed by resection of the tumor mass extensively, and we used polymethylmetacrylate for filling the dead space after resection, in all cases. 5. The mean survival period after operation is 9.2 months(ranged from 1 month to 4 years and 9 month). 6. The results of postoperative pain relief status were graded as fair to excellent in 17 cases(85%).

Background: The Boileau classification distinguishes three surgical neck fracture patterns: types A, B, and C. However, the reproducibility of this classification on plain radiographs is unclear. Therefore, we questioned what the interobserver agreement and accuracy of displaced surgical neck fracture patterns is categorized according to the modified Boileau classification. Does the reliability to recognize these fracture patterns differ between orthopedic residents and attending surgeons? Methods: This interobserver study consisted of a randomly retrieved series of 30 plain radiographs representing clinical practice in a level 1 and a level 2 trauma center. Radiographs were included from patients (≥18 years) who sustained an isolated displaced surgical neck fracture if they were taken ≤1 week after initial injury. A ground truth was established by consensus among three senior orthopedic surgeons. All images were assessed by 17 orthopedic residents and 17 attending orthopedic trauma surgeons. Results: Agreement for the modified Boileau classification was fair (κ=0.37; 95% confidence interval [CI], 0.36-0.38) with an accuracy of 62% (95% CI, 57%-66%). Comparison of interobserver variability between residents and attending surgeons revealed a significant but clinically irrelevant difference in favor of attending surgeons (0.34 vs. 0.39, respectively, Δκ=0.05, 95% CI, 0.02-0.07). Conclusions: The modified Boileau classification yields a low interobserver agreement with an unsatisfactory accuracy in a panel of orthopedic residents and attending surgeons. This supports the hypothesis that surgical neck fractures are challenging to categorize and that this classification should not be used to determine prognosis if only plain radiographs are available.

Unicameral bone cysts are benign solitary lesions that occur in the first two decades of life and with a greater frequency in the humerus and femur. The cyst is usually asymptomatic unless a fracture or impending fracture is present. The traditional method of treating unicameral cysts has been curettage with bone graft or steroid injection. Also, pathologic fractures in the calcaneus, unlike in other bones, are reported especially in the children to be nonexistent. In general, closed treatment was recommended for most of the calcaneal fractures in children, but suggested open reduction when joint displacement was severe. We report a case of displaced intraarticular fracture of the calcaneus with unicameral bone cyst in a child treated by classic curettage, allograft and open reduction with screw fixation.

섬유성 골이형성증은 골의 발육 이상으로 해면골이 섬유성 조직으로 대치되어 나타나는 양성 병변으로 대퇴골, 경골, 두개골, 늑골, 상완골 등에 호발하며 동통, 진행하는 병변, 병적 골절 등을 일으키기 쉬워 여러 가지 치료법이 시도되어 왔으나 그 중 골 소파 및 골 이식술이 현재까지 널리 시행되고 있다. 본 교실에서는 17세 여자 환자로 우측 상완골 전장에 걸친 다발성 골 낭종을 동반한 섬유성 골이형성증 환자에 steroid 주입법을 약 3개월 간격으로 총 2차례 시행하였고 처음 주입 후 약 11개월 후에 시행한 추시 단순 방사선 촬영상 병변의 크기가 감소하였고, 골음영 및 피질골의 두께가 증가하였으며, 자기공명영상촬영 검사상 병변의 크기가 상당히 감소하였고, T2 강조 영상에서 정상 골수의 신호강도와 비슷하게 변화 하였으며, 처음 주입 후 약 2년 8개월 후의 외래 추시상 통증 호소하지 않고 무리하지 않는 한도내에서 큰 불편 없이 지내고 있어 섬유성 골이형성증의 호전 소견을 보였기에 문헌고찰과 함께 보고하는 바이다.
