Abstract
Infective bone defect is increasingly threatening human health. How to achieve the optimal antibacterial activity and regenerative repair of infective bone defect simultaneously is a huge challenge in clinic. Herein, this work reports a rational integration of Mn single-atom nanozyme into the 3D-printed bioceramic scaffolds (Mn/HSAE@BCP scaffolds). The integrated Mn/HSAE@BCP scaffolds can catalyze the conversion of H2O2 to produce hydroxyl radical (•OH) and superoxide anion (O2 •-) through cascade reaction. Besides, the prominent thermal conversion efficiency of Mn/HSAE@BCP scaffolds can be utilized for sonodynamic therapy (SDT). The synergetic strategy of chemodynamic therapy (CDT)/SDT enables the sufficient generation of reactive oxygen species (ROS) to kill Staphylococcus aureus (S. aureus) or Escherichia coli (E. coli). Furthermore, the enhanced antibacterial efficacy of Mn/HSAE@BCP scaffolds is beneficial to upregulate the expression of osteogenesis-related markers (such as collagen 1(COL1), Runt-related transcription factor 2 (Runx2), osteocalcin (OCN), and osteoprotegerin (OPG)) in vitro and further promote bone regeneration in vivo. The results demonstrate the good potential of Mn/HSAE@BCP scaffolds for the enhanced antibacterial activity and bone regeneration, which provide an effective method for the treatment of clinical infective bone defect.

Abstract
The original Papineau technique described satisfactory results in treating infection-related pseudarthrosis and chronic osteomyelitis with chronic draining wounds. We described our experience in treating these soft tissue defects using the Papineau-irrigation technique. We retrospectively reviewed the records of patients that were treated with the Papineau-irrigation technique at UZ Leuven, Belgium, between January 2006 and January 2023. All surgical procedures were performed by one senior orthopedic surgeon. There were no exclusion criteria. There was successful healing of the soft tissue defect in 27 out of 32 patients with serial drip irrigation. Additional debridement was often necessary. The Papineau-irrigation technique may provide a useful alternative for treating fracture-related soft tissue defects. In addition, this technique is safe and feasible. Further comparative studies are necessary to validate its efficacy.

Comparison of antibiotic-impregnated bone cement coverage versus vacuum sealing drainage in semi-open bone grafting using for tibial fracture with infected bone and soft tissue defect: a retrospective analysis. BMC Musculoskelet Disord 2023; 24:401. [PMID: 37208629 DOI: 10.1186/s12891-023-06475-x] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Grants] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 10/16/2022] [Accepted: 04/28/2023] [Indexed: 05/21/2023] Open
Abstract
OBJECTIVE To compare antibiotic-impregnated bone cement coverage (bone cement surface technique; BCS-T) versus vacuum sealing drainage (VSD) for tibial fracture with infected bone and soft tissue defect. METHOD This retrospective analysis compared the clinical outcomes in patients undergoing BCS-T (n = 16) versus VSD (n = 15) for tibial fracture with infected bone and soft tissue defect at the Third Hospital of Hebei Medical University from March 2014 to August 2019. For BCS-T group, osseous cavity was filled with autograft bone graft after debridement, and then the wound was covered with a 3-mm layer of bone cement impregnated with vancomycin and gentamycin. The dressing was changed every day in the first week, and every 2 ~ 3 days in the second week. For VSD group, a negative pressure of -150 ~ -350 mmHg was maintained, and the dressing was changed every 5-7 days. All patients received antibiotics treatment based on bacterial culture results for 2 weeks. RESULTS The 2 groups did not differ in age, sex and key baseline characteristics, including type of Gustilo-Anderson classification, size of the bone and soft tissue defect, the percentage of primary debridement, bone transport, and the time from injury to bone grafting. The median follow-up was 18.9 months (range:12-40). The time to complete coverage of bone graft by granulation tissue was 21.2 (15.0-44.0) and 20.3 (15.0-24.0) days in the BCS-T and VSD groups, respectively (p = 0.412). The 2 groups also did not differ in wound healing time (3.3 (1.5-5.5) versus 3.2(1.5-6.5) months; p = 0.229) and bone defect healing time (5.4(3.0-9.6) versus 5.9(3.2-11.5) months; p = 0.402). However, the cost of covering material was significantly reduced in the BCS-T group (2071 ± 134 versus 5542 ± 905 yuan; p = 0.026). Paley functional classification at 12 months did not differ between the 2 groups (excellent in 87.5% versus 93.3% in the 2 groups; p = 0.306). CONCLUSION BCS-T could achieve clinical outcomes similar to VSD in patients receiving bone graft for tibial fracture with infected bone and soft tissue defect, but material cost was significantly reduced. Randomized controlled trials are needed to verify our finding.

Value of closed suction drainage in arthroscopic and minimally invasive surgery of the ankle joint: a prospective randomised study. Arch Orthop Trauma Surg 2023; 143:657-663. [PMID: 34401935 DOI: 10.1007/s00402-021-04107-4] [Citation(s) in RCA: 0] [Impact Index Per Article: 0] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Key Words] [Track Full Text] [Journal Information] [Submit a Manuscript] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/18/2021] [Accepted: 07/27/2021] [Indexed: 10/20/2022]
Abstract
INTRODUCTION Closed suction drainage is an established procedure in arthroscopic surgery. It is intended to reduce the retention of wound and irrigation fluids, which form the basis for postoperative swelling, pain, and infection. However, currently, there is no scientific review of the actual benefit of this procedure. METHODS Between 2020 and 2021, 84 patients (53 males, 31 females; mean age: 42 years) were prospectively randomised into this study. The patients underwent arthroscopic surgery of the ankle joint with (group A) or without (group B) insertion of a closed suction drain (42 patients per group). Assessments included upper ankle swelling using the figure-of-eight-20 method, pain preoperatively and 48 h postoperatively, and unexpected events within 6 weeks postoperatively. RESULTS The measurements performed 48 h postoperatively showed a mean circumferential increase of 1.38 cm (1.48 and 1.28 cm in groups A and B, respectively; p > 0.05) in all patients. The mean pain at rest, assessed using the visual analogue scale (maximum 10 points), was 2.7 and 2.4 in groups A and B, respectively (p > 0.05). Overall, two minor complications occurred: residual swelling in group A and persistent limitation of movement in group B. The average length of hospital stay was 2.4 days (p > 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Based on the available data, the routine insertion of a closed suction drainage at the upper ankle does not offer any objective benefit and must be considered obsolete. From both a medical and an economic point of view, the decision to conduct this procedure should be justified on an individual basis. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Level I, prospective randomised trial.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE To describe evidenced-based treatment options for patients who sustained trauma and/or posttraumatic osteomyelitis of the tibia resulting in diaphyseal bone defects and to compare outcomes between patients treated with nonvascularized bone grafts (NBGs), bone transport (BT), or vascularized bone grafts (VBGs). DATA SOURCE The Preferred Reporting Items for Systematic Review and Meta-Analyses of individual participant data and Cochrane guidelines were followed. PubMed, EMBASE, Cochrane Library, Web of Science, Scopus, and CINAHL were searched from inception to June 2020. STUDY SELECTION Patients who were ≥18 years, had sustained trauma to the tibia resulting in fracture and/or osteomyelitis with measurable diaphyseal bone defects, and were treated by interventions such as NBGs, BT, or VBGs were eligible. Excluded studies were non-English, reviews, nonreviewed literature, cadavers, animals, unavailable full texts, nondiaphyseal defects, atrophic nonunions, malignancy, and replantations. DATA EXTRACTION A total of 108 studies were included with 826 patients. Two reviewers systematically/independently screened titles/abstracts, followed by full texts to ensure quality, accuracy, and consensus among authors for inclusion/exclusion of studies. A third reviewer addressed disagreements if investigators were unable to reach a consensus. Studies were quality assessed using "Methodological Quality and Synthesis of Case Series and Case Reports". DATA SYNTHESIS Analyses were performed with IBM SPSS version 25.0 (IBM Corporation, Armonk, NY) and G*Power3.1.9.2. CONCLUSIONS NBGs may be considered first line for trauma defect sizes ≤ 10 cm or posttraumatic osteomyelitis defect sizes <5 cm. BT may be considered first line for posttraumatic osteomyelitis defect sizes <5 cm. VBGs may be considered first line for trauma and posttraumatic osteomyelitis defect sizes ≥5 cm. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE Therapeutic Level IV. See Instructions for Authors for a complete description of levels of evidence.

Abstract
Case summary A 7-month-old female neutered Bengal cat was referred to the Queen Mother Hospital for Animals following unknown trauma. Clinical and radiographic examination revealed a grade IIIB open, comminuted, mid-diaphyseal fracture of the left tibia and fibula, and grade IIIB open mid-diaphyseal fractures of the left metatarsals II-V. The fractures were stabilised with tibial and metatarsal external skeletal fixators. The open wounds were initially debrided surgically using conventional dressings, resulting in a small amount of circumferential granulation tissue formation by 10 days postoperatively. Following this 10-day period of conventional wound management, negative pressure wound therapy (NPWT) was applied over the external skeletal fixators and wounds. After 8 days of NPWT complete granulation tissue coverage was achieved in the tibial wound, and only small areas of two metatarsals remained exposed. The tibial wound was left to heal by second intention; a free meshed skin graft was applied to the pedal wound. Twenty weeks postoperatively, all wounds had completely healed and revision surgery with internal fixation was performed to treat a non-union of the tibia. Thirty weeks after the initial surgery, radiographic union of the tibia and metatarsals II-IV was confirmed. Relevance and novel information This is the first report of NPWT application over external fixation for the management of wounds associated with open fractures in veterinary medicine. This case was presented to introduce a novel, well-tolerated and simple technique for the management of tissue loss over an open fracture immobilised with external fixation.

Abstract
Objective To evaluate the clinical efficacy of free flap transplantation combined with Ilizarov bone transport in the treatment of severe composite tibial and soft tissue defects. Methods We retrospectively analyzed the clinical data of 40 patients with severe composite tibial and soft tissue defects who underwent free flap transplantation combined with Ilizarov bone transport. The clinical efficacy was evaluated according to the following criteria: success rate of wound repair by free flap transplantation, incidence or recurrence rate of deep infection, healing rate of bone defects and external fixation index, incidence of complications, and functional score of affected extremities. Results All infections were generally well controlled by radical debridement and negative-pressure therapy, and all 40 patients’ wounds healed after repair and reconstruction of the tibia and soft tissues. Postoperative complications were alleviated by active treatment. The mean external fixation time was 12.83 ± 2.85 months, and the external fixation index was 1.55 m/cm. According to the Association for the Study and Application of Methods of Ilizarov (ASAMI) score, an excellent or good functional outcome was attained in 85% of patients. Conclusion Free flap transplantation combined with Ilizarov bone transport is an effective treatment for severe composite tibial and soft tissue defects.

Abstract
Background No standardized protocol has been suggested in the treatment of postoperative osteomyelitis following fracture fixation. Our team evaluates the clinical efficacy of the modified algorithm for managing postoperative osteomyelitis following fracture fixation with Cierny–Mader type. Methods Ninety-five wounds were reviewed from March 2009 to February 2016 in our hospital. Sixty-one wounds were treated by the modified algorithm as follows: stable hardware + bone not healed Cierny–Mader 1 type = remove hardware, temporary stabilize; stable hardware + bone not healed Cierny–Mader 2 type = retain hardware ; stable hardware + bone not healed Cierny–Mader for type 3 and type 4 = remove hardware, temporary stabilize/Ilizarov technique; unstable hardware + bone not healed = remove hardware, temporary stabilize/Ilizarov technique; and stable hardware + bone healed = remove hardware. Thirty-four wounds were treated by the conventional algorithm. Autodermoplasty, flap transfer, myocutaneous flap, and other methods including antibiotic irrigation and drug delivery system were used in wound repair. Results The patients treated with modified algorithm had a significantly reduced recurrence (P < 0.01) and increased results of negative bacterial cultures (P < 0.01); however, a decrease in the number of retained hardware cases was observed (P < 0.05). For those treated with tissue reconstruction, there was no significance (P > 0.05) compared with the conventional group. Conclusions The modified algorithm for the postoperative osteomyelitis following fracture fixation according to the stability of the hardware and Cierny–Mader type represents a good clinical efficacy in the management of postoperative osteomyelitis. This procedure is simple and shows promising results; more clinical evidence is needed to confirm the existing findings and optimize the treatment of postoperative osteomyelitis following fracture fixation.

Bone Transport for Treatment of Traumatic Composite Tibial Bone and Soft Tissue Defects: Any Specific Needs besides the Ilizarov Technique? BIOMED RESEARCH INTERNATIONAL 2020; 2020:2716547. [PMID: 32185197 PMCID: PMC7060447 DOI: 10.1155/2020/2716547] [Citation(s) in RCA: 9] [Impact Index Per Article: 2.3] [Reference Citation Analysis] [Abstract] [Track Full Text] [Download PDF] [Figures] [Subscribe] [Scholar Register] [Received: 06/14/2019] [Revised: 11/26/2019] [Accepted: 01/06/2020] [Indexed: 02/07/2023]
Abstract
Objective To evaluate the surgical efficacy of bone transport (Ilizarov technique) plus “shortening-lengthening,” “flap surgery,” and “open bone transport” as individualized treatments for traumatic composite tibial bone and soft tissue defects. Methods We retrospectively analyzed sixty-eight cases (mean age: 35.69 years, (range, 16–65)) treated from July 2014 to June 2017, including 29 middle, 18 distal, and 21 proximal tibial bone defects (4–18 cm, mean: 7.97 cm) with soft tissue defects (2.5 cm × 4.0 cm to 30.0 cm × 35.0 cm after debridement). We adopted the bone transport external fixator to fix the fracture after debriding the defect parts. In the meantime, we adopted the “shortening-lengthening technique,” “flap surgery,” and “open bone transport” as individualized treatment based on the location, range, and severity of the composite tibial bone and soft tissue defects. Postoperative follow-up was carried out. Surgical efficacy was assessed based on (1) wound healing; (2) bone defect healing rate; (3) external fixation time and index; (4) incidence/recurrence of deep infection; (5) postoperative complications; and (6) Association for the Study and Application of the Methods of Ilizarov (ASAMI) score. Results The mean duration from injury to reconstruction was 22 days (4–80 d), and the mean postoperative follow-up period was 30.8 months (18–54 m). After the repair and reconstruction, 2 open bone transport patients required infected bone removal first before continuing the bone transport treatment. No deep infection (osteomyelitis) occurred or recurred in the remaining patients, and no secondary debridement was required. Some patients had complications after surgery. All the postoperative complications, including flap venous crisis, nail channel reaction, bone nonunion, mechanical axis deviation, and refracture, were improved or alleviated. External fixation time was 12.5 ± 3.41 months, and the index was 1.63 ± 0.44. According to the ASAMI score, 76.47% of the outcomes were good/excellent. Conclusion The Ilizarov technique yields satisfactory efficacy for composite tibial bone and soft tissue defects when combined with “shortening-lengthening technique,” “flap surgery,” and “open bone transport” with appropriate individualized treatment strategies.

Abstract
Introduction Despite advances in treatment, chronic osteomyelitis and infected nonunion after trauma remain a challenge to the orthopaedic field. The Papineau technique, firstly described in 1973, is an alternative to treat such conditions in hospitals where microsurgery is not available, making closure of defect using flap is not feasible. We described our experience in treating patients with chronic osteomyelitis and infected non-union of tibial fractures using the Papineau technique. Methods We reviewed the records of patients with severe open tibial fractures with bone defects who were treated using the Papineau technique at Cipto Mangunkusumo Hospital, Jakarta, Indonesia during the period of January 2017 to August 2019. Those with diabetes mellitus, severe liver disease, or malignancies were excluded. All surgical procedures were performed by one senior orthopedic surgeon. Results A total of four subjects were enrolled in this study. All subjects were male, with a mean age of 29 ± 6.16 years of age. The mean time to granulation tissue was 21.5 ± 1.29 days, and the mean time to union was 6 ± 0 months. There were no complications. Conclusions The Papineau technique may provide successful eradication of infection, reconstruction of bone defect, and soft-tissue closure. In addition, this technique is feasible and safe, and it could be performed in small healthcare centres. Cases of chronic osteomyelitis and infected nonunion after trauma remain a challenge. No consensus regarding the best method. In Indonesia studies regarding the use of the Papineau technique never been conducted. The Papineau technique could be performed in small healthcare centres.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE The lack of universally accepted treatment principles and protocols to manage infected intramedullary (IM) nails following tibial fractures continues to challenge us, eliciting a demand for clear guidelines. Our response to this problem was to create an ORS/ISFR taskforce to identify potential solutions and trends based on published evidence and practices globally. MATERIALS AND METHODS A questionnaire of reported treatment methods was created based on a published meta-analysis on the topic. Treatment methods were divided in two groups: A (retained nail) and B (nail removed). Experts scored the questionnaire items on a scale of 1-4 twice, before and after revealing the success rates for each stage of infection. Inter- and intra-observer variability analysis among experts' personal scores and between experts' scores was performed. An agreement mean and correlation degree between experts' scores was calculated. Finally, a success rate report between groups was performed. RESULTS Experts underestimated success rate of an individual treatment method compared to published data. The mean difference between experts' scores and published results was + 26.3 ± 46 percentage points. Inter-observer agreement mean was poor (< 0.2) for both rounds. Intra-observer agreement mean across different treatment methods showed a wide variability (18.3 to 64.8%). Experts agree more with published results for nail removal on stage 2 and 3 infections. CONCLUSIONS Experts' and published data strongly agree to retain the implant for stage 1 infections. A more aggressive approach (nail removal) favoured for infection stages 2 and 3. However, literature supports both treatment strategies. EVIDENCE Clinical Question.
