Purpose: To evaluate the efficiency of the minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis (MIPPO) with locking compression plate (LCP) for distal tibial metaphyseal intra-articular fracture compared with extra-articular fracture. Materials and Methods: From February 2006 to June 2008, 21 patients with distal tibia metaphyseal intra-articular fracture and 20 patients with extra-articular fracture were treated operatively by MIPPO technique with LCP and followed for at least one year. In the group with intra-articular fracture, mean age was 48.85 years old and a mean follow-up was 15 months. In the other group with extra-articular fracture, mean age was 52.35 years old and a mean follow-up was 14.5 months. The type of fracture was evaluated using the AO/OTA classification and open-fractures were according to the Gustilo-And gron classification. Radiologic evaluation with fracture healing and tibial alignment, clinical evaluation with Olerud and Molander ankle score and restriction of motion were done for treatment. Results: According to AO/OTA classification, There were 21 type A, 15 type B, 5 type C. Average union time of the intra-articular fracture (type B, C) was 18.7 weeks. Average union time of the extra-articular fracture (type A) was 17.1 weeks. All fractures were healed without malunion. There were no difference of mean restriction angle between intra-articular fracture (ankle dorsiflexion was 3.57 degree, plantar-flexion was 5.95 degree) and extra-articular fracture (ankle dorsiflexion was 3 degree, plantar-flexion was 3.75 degree). There were no difference of Olerud and Molander ankle score between them as a mean score of intra-articular and extra-articular was 89.25, 91.25 each other. As a complication, there were 3 case of skin necrosis, 8 case of discomfortable skin tenting by plate and 1 superficial infection, but could be healed by conservative care. Conclusion: MIPPO technique, combined articular reduction, with LCP of distal tibial metaphyseal fracture was a good method with high functional recovery.

Purpose: To evaluate the results of MIPPO (minimal invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis) technique for distal tibial metaphyseal fractures. Materials and Methods: It is a retrospective study of 13 patients who were treated by MIPPO technique for distal tibial metaphyseal fractures from Jan. 2001 to Jan. 2003. The average age was 46.7 years and mean follow-up period was 13.3 months. According to AO classification, there were 8 cases of A1, 3 cases of A2, 1 case of B1 and 1 case of C2. One case of A1 was a Gustilo-Anderson type I open fracture and fibular fractures were combined in 12 cases. We applied anatomical reduction and internal fixation for the fibular fractures and internal fixation on the medial side of the tibia by MIPPO technique for distal tibial metaphyseal fractures. Clinical results were evaluated using radiographic results, Neer score, the starting time of postoperative exercise and clinical complications. Results: According to the Neer score, all cases showed satisfactory results. Active ankle ROM was started at average 2.4 weeks ($2{\sim}4$ weeks) and full weight bearing ambulation at average 5.2 weeks ($4{\sim}8$ weeks) postoperatively. Union of fractures was obtained by average 14.4 weeks ($8{\sim}18$ weeks) postoperatively. Two cases showed $5^{\circ}$ limitation of motion without functional deficits and other cases showed satisfactory ROM results. One case had $6^{\circ}$ valgus deformity without functional deficits. There were not any other complications like soft tissue problems and delayed-or non-union. Conclusion: MIPPO technique for the treatment of distal tibial metaphyseal fractures is a feasible technique with a good clinical outcomes.

목적: 쇄골 간부 골절의 최소 침습적 경피적 금속판 고정술과 관혈적 고정술에 대한 후향적 분석을 통해 수술 결과를 비교하고자 한다. 대상 및 방법: 2011년 11월부터 2014년 5월까지 쇄골 간부 골절로 수술을 시행한 최소 1년 이상의 추시가 가능하였던 40예에서 최소 침습적 금속판고정술 20예를 A군, 관혈적 고정술 20예를 B군으로 나누어 두 군 간의 수술시간, 골유합, 기능적 평가(American Shoulder and Elbow Society score), 수술 반흔의 길이, 술 후 통증 완화(visual analogue scale) 및 합병증에 대해 비교 분석하였다. 결과: 모든 예에서 골유합이 이루어졌으며, 양 군에서 모두 양호한 결과를 보였다(p>0.05). 평균 수술 시간은 A군에서 47.5분, B군에서 58.7분이었고, 평균 절개의 길이는 A군에서 6.2 cm, B군 10.7 cm로 유의한 차이를 보였으며, 술 후 통증의 완화에서도 A군에서 초기 빠른 회복을 보였다. 합병증으로 A군에서 부정유합 1예, 피부 감각이상 2예를 보였으며, B군에서 피부 감각이상 6예 및 수술 반흔에 대한 미용상의 문제가 2예 있었다. 결론: 쇄골 간부 골절에서 A와 B 양 군에서 대체적으로 양호한 결과를 보였으나 A군이 B군에 비해 짧은 수술시간과 수술 절개, 초기 통증 완화 항목들에서 더 좋은 결과를 보였다. 하지만 부정유합, 방사선 노출 등의 합병증 및 장기 추시 결과에 대한 연구가 더 이루어져야 할 것으로 보인다.

Purpose: To evaluate and compare the outcome between interlocking IM nailing and LCP fixation in the treatment of distal metaphyseal tibial fracture. Materials and Methods: From January 2000 to December 2007, 17 patient were treated by interlocking IM nail and 13 patient were treated by LCP fixation for distal metaphyseal tibial fracture. Results: According to AO classification, there were 2 type A1 fracture (12%), 6 type A2 fracture (36%), 3 type A3 fracture (18%), 4 type B1 fracture (24%), 1 type B3 fracture (6%), 1 type C1 fracture (6%) in interlocking IM nailing group and 1 type A2 fracture (7.7%), 2 type A3 fracture (15.4%), 3 type B1 fracture (23%), 3 type B2 fracture (23%), 3 type C1 fracture (23%), 1 type C2 fracture (7.7%) in LCP fixation group. The clinical functional outcome (according to AOFAS score) is 75.6 point in IM nailing group and 81.5 point in LCP fixation group. In IM nailing group, 65% of patient showed satisfactory result and In LCP fixation group, 77% of patient showed satisfactory result. Conclusion: There is no difference on clinical results between IM nailing and MIPPO (minimal invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis) group in the treatment of distal tibia fracture. But MIPPO group have higher subjective satisfactory score and less complication rate. The weakness of our study is a small case number and limited follow-up and we believe a better designed prospective study will be needed.

본 논문에서는 복합재료 IM rod가 적용된 골절부의 세포 분화과정을 모사하기 위해 유한요소해석을 실시하였다. 세포의 골화과정을 해석하기 위해 편향 변형률을 이용한 메카노 규제 이론을 사용하였으며, 반복 계산을 위해 Python 코드를 이용하여 서브루틴을 구현하였다. 치료에 가장 적절한 복합재료 IM rod의 강성을 찾기 위해 직물 탄소섬유/에폭시 복합재료 (WSN3k)의 적층각도를 바꾸어 해석을 실시하였다. 골절부에 가해지는 기계적 자극에 따른 치료효율을 비교하기 위해 두 가지 초기 하중 조건을 적용하였다. 그 결과 치료효율은 강성의 차이보다 하중에 의해 큰 영향을 받았으며, 초기 하중이 몸무게의 10%이고, 적층순서가 $[{\pm}45]_{nT}$일 때 치료효율이 가장 높았다.
