Periosteal and endosteal reaction to reaming and nailing: the possible role of revascularization on the endosteal anchorage of cementless stems.

The reaction of bone to titanium implants of different shapes inserted in the rabbit tibia was investigated with histological and perfusion techniques to determine the pattern of vessel distribution. The experimental implants included full cylindrical rods, hollow rods with holes on the surface and wire mesh rods. In the implanted bones the rods were found to fill a large area of the medullary canal; however, owing to the discrepancy between the shape of the diaphysis and the implant, the endosteal contact was never complete. In an early phase, reactive bone filled the gap between the endosteal and the implant surface; in hollow and wire mesh rods bone had grown inside through the lateral holes or loops of the mesh. Revascularization took place together with remodelling of the endosteal, primary bone to mature lamellar. In full implants a reticle of newly formed vessels developed around the rods; in hollow and wire mesh implants vessels had grown inside the implant itself and the endosteal surface had a more regular profile than in full rods. Wire mesh plugs prevented formation of a peripheral medullary space and showed no encapsulation; wires in contact with or in proximity to the endosteal surface were incorporated by lamellar systems with strong connections with the original cortical bone.

Resection of a periosteal osteosarcoma and reconstruction using the Ilizarov technique of segmental transport.

The reconstruction of a large diaphyseal bone defect is a surgical challenge. Autologous bone grafts are usually insufficient to bridge the gap and allografts are prone to infection and may pose problems with internal fixation. Another solution is presented for the reconstruction of a large ulnar defect due to tumour resection, using the Ilizarov technique of segmental transport.

Autologous chondrocyte implantation: natural history of postimplantation periosteal hypertrophy and effects of repair-site debridement on outcome.

PURPOSE: Our purposes were to report the clinical outcome of autologous chondrocyte implantation (ACI) patients with graft hypertrophy compared with that of unoperated ACI patients and to longitudinally assess the effects of graft hypertrophy debridement. METHODS: We divided 170 knee ACI patients with a minimum of 2 years' follow-up into groups according to the need for reoperation after ACI and the findings at surgery. Group A (n = 73) comprised patients who did not undergo reoperation, group B (n = 61) comprised patients who underwent reoperation and had findings unrelated to the repair, and group C (n = 36) comprised patients who underwent reoperation and had isolated graft hypertrophy. The International Knee Documentation Committee, modified Cincinnati knee rating, and Short Form 36 physical component scores for the 3 groups were compared. Of the repairs debrided because of graft hypertrophy, 41 were longitudinally assessed with arthroscopy or magnetic resonance imaging. RESULTS: The mean follow-up was 42.2 months. Patch-related problems were seen in 73.7% of cases undergoing reoperation less than 2 years after implantation, whereas cartilage-related problems were the dominant finding more than 2 years after implantation (70.2%). Group A patients fared significantly better than group B or C patients with regard to all 3 parameters measured, with no difference between groups B and C. Longitudinal assessment of 41 hypertrophied repairs revealed 18 with signs of pathology after graft debridement. CONCLUSIONS: This study shows that reoperation is frequent after ACI and is associated with a less satisfying outcome. Furthermore, debridement of a hypertrophied ACI graft appears to be detrimental as shown by longitudinal assessment of repairs. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level IV, therapeutic case series.

Periosteal distraction osteogenesis: preliminary experimental evaluation in rabbits and dogs.

The aim of this project was to evaluate the potential of bone formation by the distraction of periosteum. Distraction of calvarial bone in 12 rabbits at 0.25 mm a day caused formation of bone in 3 animals, and distraction at 0.5mm a day caused formation of bone in 2. A second trial of alveolar distraction in four dogs using a specifically-designed distraction device showed lack of stability of the device.

Mast cell activation and degranulation occur early during induction of periosteal bone resorption.

We have previously postulated that mast cells participate in the cellular network involved in osteoclastic resorption, probably through histamine release. In this study, we examined mast cell activation and histamine release during origination of resorption. Groups of 10 rats were killed 0, 0.5, 1, 1.5, 3, 6, 9, 12 and 18 h after induction of resorption in a synchronized model of cortical resorption along the mandible. The total number of mast cells was transiently decreased by about one-third at 1 and 9 h. Mast cell activation was monitored by Alcian blue-safranin staining. Early after induction, mast cells started to release their mediator stores; complete release led to the apparent disappearance of the cells with the staining technique used. Histamine immunostaining confirmed the release of histamine and its diffusion in the extracellular environment. Massive degranulation was observed at 1.5 and 9 h with toluidine blue staining. Cell recovery, assessed in terms of histidine decarboxylase expression, occurred gradually. The number of ED1+ osteoclast precursors strongly increased from 12 h up to 18 h. Most parameters had returned to baseline at 18 h, except the ED1+ cells. H2 receptor inhibition with famotidine strongly decreased ED1+ osteoclast precursors at 12 h and subsequently osteoclasts at the peak of resorption. These data support a role of mast cells in resorption origination. They show an early and transient intervention of mast cells in the events regulating the recruitment of circulating osteoclast precursors and ultimately of resorption. Mast cell activation and degranulation induce the release of mediators, particularly histamine acting through its H2 receptors, which are likely involved in these reactions.

Periosteal fixation in third-nerve palsy.

PURPOSE: We present a new technique of anchoring the eyeball to the nasal periosteum using a nonabsorbable suture in acquired isolated third-nerve paresis. METHODS: This was a case series of 4 consecutive adult subjects with isolated third-nerve paresis. After a 12-mm lateral rectus muscle recession in all 4 subjects, we passed 5-O double-armed polyester (NW683 Ethibond; Ethicon, Division of Johnson and Johnson Ltd., Aurangabad, India) on spatulated needles through the periosteum overlying the anterior lacrimal crest (exposed as in a Dacryocystorhinostomy procedure) at its superior part. The needles were brought anterior to the medial rectus muscle insertion and tightened enough to align the eye in 8-10 prism diopters adducted position. RESULTS: Ocular alignment in the primary gaze was satisfactory at 6-12 months of follow up. CONCLUSIONS: The use of a nonabsorbable polyester suture to anchor the globe to the nasal periosteum is an additional technique that holds promise to align the eyes in the primary gaze.

Periosteal autologous chondrocyte implantation for patellar chondral defect in patients with normal and abnormal patellar tracking.

Reported results for patellar ACI include a mixed population of patients having or not a concomitant correction of the extensor mechanism. No study has reported separate outcome for those two patellar ACI subgroups. Forty four patients were included in this study designed to compare the outcome of patellar ACI with extensor realignment (group A) to patellar ACI with normal patellofemoral tracking (group B). Group A (n=22) had a higher increase in average modified Cincinnati knee score (4.5 vs. 1.7 points), better function (1.7 vs. 2.5), better SF-36 physical component scores (70.9 vs. 55.4 points) and higher IKDC scores (85.2 vs. 60.6 points) when compared to group B (n=22) at an average follow-up of 2 years. Patellar ACI with concomitant extensor realignment has superior outcome than patellar ACI with normal patellofemoral tracking. An unloading osteotomy could be desirable in selected patients with normal patellofemoral biomechanics to improve the outcome in this population.

Tibial tubercle transfer on a medial periosteal pedicle--a report of a new technique.

Tibial tubercle transfer is still probably the most widely used procedure of the numerous operative procedures described to realign the patella and extensor mechanism and to prevent a recurrent dislocation. Although this procedure most likely disturbs the blood supply to the tibial tubercle and thus may lead to a delayed union. Tibial tubercle transfer is also considered to play a role in the incidence of a tibial tubercle delayed union. Furthermore, a fracture of the tibial metaphysis has been reported to occur in some cases. We therefore devised a new procedure in which the periosteum of the medial side of the proximal portion of the tibia was left intact when tibial tubercle transfer is performed. The current paper describes the results of new technique in 25 knees with patellar maltracking. Eighty-four percent of the patients had good or excellent results at a mean follow-up time of 49 months. All of the patients achieved complete healing radiographically within 2 months after the operation. Serious complications such as compartment syndrome, infection and skin slough were also completely avoided in all cases. This new procedure that the use of a protective maneuver for the periosteum of the medial side of the tibia may thus reduce the incidence of a delayed union and thereby promote early postoperative rehabilitation after tibial tubercle transfer.
