[Manipulative reduction and percutaneous Kirschner wire internal fixation for grade IV supination-external rotation ankle fractures].

Objective: To investigate surgical skills and clinical effects of manipulative reduction and percutaneous Kirschner wire internal fixation in treating grade IV supination-external rotation ankle fractures.

Methods: From May 2013 to October 2016, 35 patients with grade IV supination-external rotation ankle fractures were treated with percutaneous Kirschner wire internal fixation, involving 22 males and 13 females with an average age of 38.2 years ranged from 18 to 65 years old.

Reduction of adhesion formation after knee surgery in a rat model by botulinum toxin A.

Adhesion of the knee is a major concern after knee surgery, the treatment of which is difficult. Botulinum toxin A (BTX-A) injection is demonstrated as efficient in treating knee adhesion after surgery. However, the treatment outcomes and the mechanism of action are not yet determined.

[Comparative study on impacted high tibial osteotomy and conventional high tibial osteotomy for the treatment of flexional medial knee osteoarthritis in aged patients].

Objective: To compare the therapeutic effect of impacted high tibial osteotomy and conventional high tibial osteotomy for the treatment of flexional medial osteoarthritis of knee joint in aged patients.

Methods: From July 2003 to July 2006, 30 patients with flexional medial knee osteoarthritis were treated with impacted high tibial osteotomy or conventional high tibial osteotomy randomly. All patients,aged from 60 to 82 years,were suffered from 7 degrees to 19 degrees knee flexion deformities and 3 to 20 years medical histories.
