  • Analysis of effectiveness of greater trochanteric osteotomy approach and K-L posterior approach in patients with type Ⅳ Pipkin fracture

    ObjectiveTo investigate the effectiveness of two surgical approaches in the treatment of type Ⅳ Pipkin fracture.MethodsThe clinical data of 15 patients with type Ⅳ Pipkin fracture treated surgically between July 2013 and June 2018 were retrospectively analyzed. According to different surgical approaches, they were divided into group A (8 cases, using K-L posterior approach) and group B (7 cases, using greater trochanter osteotomy approach). There was no significant difference in gender, age, cause of injury, and interval from injury to operation between the two groups (P>0.05). The incision length, operation time, intraoperative blood loss, hospital stay, fracture healing time, and complications of the two groups were recorded. Hip joint function recovery was evaluated according to Thompson-Epstein functional evaluation system.ResultsAll the 15 patients were followed up 1-5 years, with an average of 2.5 years. There was no significant difference in operation time between the two groups (t=14.681, P=0.100); the incision length, intraoperative blood loss, and fracture healing time in group A were all greater than those in group B, and the hospital stay was shorter than that in group B, showing significant differences (P<0.05). In group A, 1 patient presented hip pain, clasthenia, and limited mobility after operation, 1 patient presented ossifying myositis, 1 patient presented osteonecrosis of the femoral head, 1 patient presented fat liquefaction of incision, and 1 patient presented sciatica, with a complication incidence of 62.5%. Postoperative hip pain occurred in 1 patient and ossifying myositis in 2 patients in group B, with a complication incidence of 42.9%. There was no significant difference in the incidence of complications between the two groups (χ2=−0.735, P=0.462). At last follow-up, according to Thompson-Epstein functional evaluation system, the results in group A were excellent in 3 cases, good in 2 cases, fair in 2 cases, and poor in 1 case, with an excellent and good rate of 62.5%; in group B, the results were excellent in 4 cases, good in 2 cases, and fair in 1 case, and the excellent and good rate was 85.7%. There was no significant difference in good and fair rate between the two groups (χ2=−0.990, P=0.322).ConclusionK-L posterior approach is more convenient in the fracture treatment during operation, but it has greater trauma, greater vascular damage, and more blood loss. The greater trochanter osteotomy approach can better protect the blood supply of femoral head, shorten the operation time, reduce intraoperative blood loss, and reduce postoperative complications. It is an ideal way in the surgical treatment of type Ⅳ Pipkin fracture.

  • Study on the preparation of polycaprolactone/typeⅠcollagen tissue engineered meniscus scaffold by three-dimensional printing and its physiochemical properties

    ObjectiveTo manufacture a polycaprolactone (PCL)/type Ⅰ collagen (COL Ⅰ) tissue engineered meniscus scaffold (hereinafter referred to as PCL/COL Ⅰ meniscus scaffold) by three-dimensional (3D) printing with low temperature deposition technique and to study its physicochemical properties.MethodsFirst, the 15% PCL/4% COLⅠ composite solution and 15% PCL simple solution were prepared. Then, 15% PCL/4% COL Ⅰmeniscus scaffold and 15% PCL meniscal scaffold were prepared by using 3D printing with low temperature deposition techniques. The morphology and microstructure of the scaffolds were observed by gross observation and scanning electron microscope. The compression modulus and tensile modulus of the scaffolds were measured by biomechanical test. The components of the scaffolds were analyzed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy (FTIR). The contact angle of the scaffold surface was measured. The meniscus cells of rabbits were cultured with the two scaffold extracts and scaffolds, respectively. After cultured, the cell proliferations were detected by cell counting kit 8 (CCK-8), and the normal cultured cells were used as controls. Cell adhesion and growth of scaffold-cell complex were observed by scanning electron microscope.ResultsAccording to the gross and scanning electron microscope observations, two scaffolds had orientated 3D microstructures and pores, but the surface of the PCL/COLⅠ meniscus scaffold was rougher than the PCL meniscus scaffold. Biomechanical analysis showed that the tensile modulus and compression modulus of the PCL/COL Ⅰ meniscus scaffold were not significantly different from those of the PCL meniscus scaffold (P>0.05). FTIR analysis results showed that COL Ⅰ and PCL were successful mixed in PCL/ COL Ⅰ meniscus scaffolds. The contact angle of PCL/COLⅠ meniscus scaffold [(83.19±7.49)°] was significantly lower than that of PCL meniscus scaffold [(111.13±5.70)°] (t=6.638, P=0.000). The results of the CCK-8 assay indicated that with time, the number of cells cultured in two scaffold extracts showed an increasing trend, and there was no significant difference when compared with the control group (P>0.05). Scanning electron microscope observation showed that the cells attached on the PCL/ COL Ⅰ meniscus scaffold more than that on the PCL scaffold.ConclusionPCL/COLⅠmeniscus scaffolds are prepared by 3D printing with low temperature deposition technique, which has excellent physicochemical properties without cytotoxicity. PCL/COLⅠmeniscus scaffold is expected to be used as the material for meniscus tissue engineering.

  • Electrospun polycaprolactone/collagen typeⅠnanofibers oriented patch for rotator cuff repairing

    ObjectiveElectrospinning technique was used to manufacture polycaprolactone (PCL)/collagen typeⅠ nanofibers orientated patches and to study their physical and chemical characterization, discussing their feasibility as synthetic patches for rotator cuff repairing.MethodsPCL patches were prepared by electrospinning with 10% PCL electrospinning solution (control group) and PCL/collagen typeⅠorientated nanofibers patches were prepared by electrospinning with PCL electrospinning solution with 25% collagen type Ⅰ(experimental group). The morphology and microstructure of the two patches were observed by gross and scanning electron microscopy, and the diameter and porosity of the fibers were measured; the mechanical properties of the patches were tested by uniaxial tensile test; the composition of the patches was analyzed by Fourier transform infrared spectroscopy; and the contact angle of the patch surface was measured. Two kinds of patch extracts were co-cultured with the third generation of rabbit tendon stem cells. Cell counting kit 8 (CCK-8) was used to detect the toxicity and cell proliferation of the materials. Normal cultured cells were used as blank control group. Rabbit tendon stem cells were co-cultured with the two patches and stained with dead/living cells after 3 days of in vitro culture, and laser confocal scanning microscopy was used to observe the cell adhesion and activity on the patch.ResultsGross and scanning electron microscopy showed that the two patch fibers were arranged in orientation. The diameter of patch fibers in the experimental group was significantly smaller than that in the control group (t=26.907, P=0.000), while the porosity in the experimental group was significantly larger than that in the control group (t=2.506, P=0.032). The tensile strength and Young’s modulus of the patch in the experimental group were significantly higher than those in the control group (t=3.705, P=0.029; t=4.064, P=0.034). Infrared spectrum analysis showed that PCL and collagen type Ⅰ were successfully mixed in the experimental group. The surface contact angle of the patch in the experimental group was (73.88±4.97)°, which was hydrophilic, while that in the control group was (128.46±5.10) °, which was hydrophobic. There was a significant difference in the surface contact angle between the two groups (t=21.705, P=0.002). CCK-8 test showed that with the prolongation of culture time, the cell absorbance (A) value increased gradually in each group, and there was no significant difference between the experimental group and the control group at each time point (P>0.05). Laser confocal scanning microscopy showed that rabbit tendon stem cells could adhere and grow on the surface of both patches after 3 days of culture. The number of cells adhered to the surface of the patches in the experimental group was more than that in the control group, and the activity was better.ConclusionPCL/ collagen type Ⅰ nanofibers orientated patch prepared by electrospinning technology has excellent physical and chemical properties, cell adhesion, and no cytotoxicity. It can be used as an ideal scaffold material in tendon tissue engineering for rotator cuff repair in the future.

  • Fabrication of poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid)/decellularized articular cartilage extracellular matrix scaffold by three-dimensional printing technology and investigating its physicochemical properties

    Objective To manufacture a poly (lactic-co-glycolic acid) (PLGA) scaffold by low temperature deposition three-dimensional (3D) printing technology, prepare a PLGA/decellularized articular cartilage extracellular matrix (DACECM) cartilage tissue engineered scaffold by combining DACECM, and further investigate its physicochemical properties. Methods PLGA scaffolds were prepared by low temperature deposition 3D printing technology, and DACECM suspensions was prepared by modified physical and chemical decellularization methods. DACECM oriented scaffolds were prepared by using freeze-drying and physicochemical cross-linking techniques. PLGA/DACECM oriented scaffolds were prepared by combining DACECM slurry with PLGA scaffolds. The macroscopic and microscopic structures of the three kinds of scaffolds were observed by general observation and scanning electron microscope. The chemical composition of DACECM oriented scaffold was analyzed by histological and immunohistochemical stainings. The compression modulus of the three kinds of scaffolds were measured by biomechanical test. Three kinds of scaffolds were embedded subcutaneously in Sprague Dawley rats, and HE staining was used to observe immune response. The chondrocytes of New Zealand white rabbits were isolated and cultured, and the three kinds of cell-scaffold complexes were prepared. The growth adhesion of the cells on the scaffolds was observed by scanning electron microscope. Three kinds of scaffold extracts were cultured with L-929 cells, the cells were cultured in DMEM culture medium as control group, and cell counting kit 8 (CCK-8) was used to detect cell proliferation. Results General observation and scanning electron microscope showed that the PLGA scaffold had a smooth surface and large pores; the surface of the DACECM oriented scaffold was rough, which was a 3D structure with loose pores and interconnected; and the PLGA/DACECM oriented scaffold had a rough surface, and the large hole and the small hole were connected to each other to construct a vertical 3D structure. Histological and immunohistochemical qualitative analysis demonstrated that DACECM was completely decellularized, retaining the glycosaminoglycans and collagen typeⅡ. Biomechanical examination showed that the compression modulus of DACECM oriented scaffold was significantly lower than those of the other two scaffolds (P<0.05). There was no significant difference between PLGA scaffold and PLGA/DACECM oriented scaffold (P>0.05). Subcutaneously embedded HE staining of the three scaffolds showed that the immunological rejections of DACECM and PLGA/DACECM oriented scaffolds were significantly weaker than that of the PLGA scaffold. Scanning electron microscope observation of the cell-scaffold complex showed that chondrocytes did not obviously adhere to PLGA scaffold, and a large number of chondrocytes adhered and grew on PLGA/DACECM oriented scaffold and DACECM oriented scaffold. CCK-8 assay showed that with the extension of culture time, the number of cells cultured in the three kinds of scaffold extracts and the control group increased. There was no significant difference in the absorbance (A) value between the groups at each time point (P>0.05). Conclusion The PLGA/DACECM oriented scaffolds have no cytotoxicity, have excellent physicochemical properties, and may become a promising scaffold material of tissue engineered cartilage.
