- PURPOSE
The aim of this study is to examine the risk factors of cognitive impairment in elderly hip fracture patients with no underlying neurologic disease, and to determine its effect on functional recovery postoperatively.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
From August 2012 to August 2013, 39 patients older than 65 years of age, who underwent hip fracture surgery and were followed-up for a minimum of 1 year at Hallym University Sacred Heart Hospital, were enrolled. All patients were assessed using Korean version of Mini-Mental State Examination (MMSE-K) after admission. All patients were divided into cognitive normal group (MMSE-K> or =24) and cognitive impairment group (MMSE-K<24). WOMAC (Western Ontario and McMaster University) score and Harris hip score were used for assessment of functional recovery at 6-month follow-up.
RESULTS
Sixteen patients (41.0%) were classified as the cognitive impairment group. The number of underlying diseases was the only statistically different factor between the two groups. In the evaluation of functional outcome, the functional decline was less in the cognitive normal group. Risk factors for cognitive impairment in elderly hip fracture patients were old age, high body mass index, and the number of underlying diseases, particularly an endocrinologic disease like diabetes.
CONCLUSION
Cognitive impairment in elderly patients may have a negative effect on functional recovery after hip fracture surgery. Therefore, we recommend routine evaluation of cognitive function in elderly hip fracture patients even with no underlying neurologic disease.

- PURPOSE
To compare the effectiveness between minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) and interlocking IM nailing in the treatment of distal tibia fracture without involvement of ankle joint retrospectively.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
38 patients with distal tibia fracture from Jan. 2004 to Oct. 2005 were divided into two groups. Minimum follow-up was for 12 months. Group MIPO consisted of 18 patients were treated with MIPO and group Nail consisted of 20 patients were treated with interlocking intramedullary nail. The results were compared between two groups by assessing bony union time and operation time. Clinical evaluation was evaluated by Olerud score.
RESULTS
The mean bony union time was 14.4 weeks (12~17 weeks) in group MIPO and 16.7 weeks (13~19 weeks) in group Nail (p=0.011). The mean operation time was 1.05 hours (0.6~1.6 hours) in group MIPO and 0.74 hours (0.4~1.1 hours) in group Nail (p=0.044). The Olerud score was 83.8 (75~100) in group MIPO and was 89.6 (70~100) in group Nail (p=0.075). In Complication, group MIPO showed one metal failure and two skin irritations, group Nail showed three superficial wound infections.
CONCLUSION
MIPO was the shorter bony union time and the longer operation time than the interlocking intramedullary nailing. There were no significant differences between the two groups in clinical results.

Abstract

- PURPOSE
To evaluate results regarding pain relief, spinal stabilization, and complication after treatment with percutaneous vertebroplasty.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
108 patients (12 men, 96 women; aged 42~84 years) underwent 156 percutaneous injections of surgical cement into a vertebra (vertebroplasty) with fluoroscopic guidance in 119 procedures. All patients had severe pain,osteoporotic fractures and had failed medical therapy. Immediate and long-term pain response, spinal stability, and complications were evaluated. Assessment criteria were the changes over time (Days 3, 30, 90, 180) in visual analogue scale (VAS: 0~100 mm) and McGill-Melzack scoring system. The height of vertebral body was checked at three portions (anterior, middle, posterior) with lateral view of plain radiographs.
RESULTS
A statistically significant decrease of both VAS and McGill-Melzack scoring system was observed at Day 3. The results were also significant at Days 30, 90, and 180 both scales. We observed no adverse event, but 26 vertebral fractures had occured in the adjacent level during 12 months of follow-up. The leakage of cement was observed in 57 vertebral bodies (36.5%). But there was no neurological symptoms associated with cement leakage. The vertebral body height was increased after vertebroplasty.
CONCLUSION
Vertebroplasty is safe and effective, and have a useful role in the treatment of painful osteoporotic vertebral compression fractures that do not respond to conventional treatments. Continuous management of osteoporosis and patient education is mandantory to prevent subsequent fracture of the adjacent vertebral bodies.
