Femoroacetabular impingement (FAI) is a condition characterized by the impingement of the femur and acetabulum. In Japan, this disorder has become recognized gradually. Here we report a rare case of surgically treated FAI, associated with an osseous protrusion on the acetabulum of a 30-year-old female. Plain computed tomography (CT) and reconstructive 3D-CT images clearly demonstrated an anterolateral bony protrusion. Hip arthroscopy showed no degeneration of the cartilage on either the femoral or acetabular side, but degeneration at the edge of labrum was observed in the region of the bony protrusion. The complete removal of the bony protrusion under hip arthroscopy was thus considered impracticable, and a small skin incision was therefore made anteriorly to approach the acetabulum. The Short-Form 36-Item Health Survey (SF-36) revealed improvement in all scores.

To assess the effects of service dogs on health-related quality of life (HRQOL), we conducted a survey of 10 service dog owners using SF-36v2 (Medical Outcomes Study 36 Item Short-Form Health Survey Version 2.0) and compared it with a matched control group of people with physical disabilities who did not have service dogs but were eligible for one. The scores for mental health and role emotional of service dog owners were relatively high, and their mental component summary was higher than the general population norm. These results indicate that service dogs affect the mentality of their owners. The comparison with the control group indicated that service dogs alleviate the mental burden of daily activities, and subjectively improved the physical functioning of their owners. This study showed that service dogs have positive functional and mental effects on their disabled owners. © 2010 by Okayama University Medical School.

Anterior cruciate ligament (ACL)-derived cells have a character different from medial collateral ligament (MCL)-derived cells. However, the critical difference between ACL and MCL is still unclear in their healing Potential and cellular response. The objective of this study was to investigate the mesenchymal differentiation property of each ligament-derived cell. Both ligament-derived cells differentiated into adipogenic, osteogenic, and chondrogenic lineages. In chondrogenesis, ACL-derived cells had the higher chondrogenic property than MCL-derived cells. The chondrogenic marker genes, Sox9 and alpha 1(II) collagen (Col2a1), were induced faster in ACL-derived pellets than in MCL-derived pellets. Sox9 expression preceded the increase of Col2a1 in both pellet-cultured cells. However, the expression level of Sox9 and a ligament/tendon transcription factor Scleraxis did not parallel the increase of Col2a1 expression along with chondrogenic induction. The present Study demonstrates that the balance between Sox9 and Scleraxis have an important role in the chondrogenic differentiation of ligament-derived cells. (C) 2009 Elsevier Inc.

Scleraxis and E47 cooperatively regulate the Sox9-dependent transcription Reviewed

During musculoskeletal development, Sry-type HMG box 9 (Sox9) has a crucial role in mesenchymal condensation and chondrogenesis. On the other hand, a tissue-specific basic helix-loop-helix (bHLH) transcription factor Scleraxis (Scx) regulates the differentiation of tendon and ligament progenitors. Whereas these two transcription factors cooperatively participate in the determination of cellular lineages, the precise interaction between Sox9 and Scx remains unclear. We have previously demonstrated that the Sox9-dependent transcription is synergistically activated by several Sox9-associating molecules, such as p300 and Smad3, on chromatin. In this study, we investigated the function of Scx in the Sox9-dependent transcription. The expression of α1(II) collagen (Col2a1) gene was stimulated by an appropriate transduction of Sox9 and Scx. Scx and its partner E47, which dimerizes with other bHLH proteins, cooperatively enhanced the Sox9-dependent transcription in luciferase reporter assays. Coactivator p300 synergistically increased the activity of Sox9-regulated reporter gene, which contains promoter and enhancer regions of Col2a1, in the presence of Scx and E47. Immunoprecipitation analyses revealed that Scx and E47 formed a transcriptional complex with Sox9 and p300. Scx/E47 heterodimer also associated with a conserved E-box sequence (CAGGTG) in the Col2a1 promoter on chromatin. These findings suggest that Scx and E47 might modulate the primary chondrogenesis by associating with the Sox9-related transcriptional complex, and by binding to the conserved E-box on Col2a1 promoter. © 2009 Elsevier Ltd.

Self-assembling peptide scaffold (SAPS) is well known to have very good bone conduction properties. However, the intensity of SAPS is too weak to actually use it for a clinical bone regeneration. Therefore, we have produced a hybrid scaffold system that involves fabricating a cage from polyetheretherketone (PEEK) that has high intensity, filling the interior of this cage with SAPS, and then transplanted this hybrid scaffold to bone defects in rat femurs. After 28 days, soft X-ray radiographs and histological assessment revealed that good new bone formation was clearly observed in the defects transplanted the PEEK cage with SAPS, but not in the PEEK cage only. The PEEK cage maintained a form and osteoconduction ability of internal SAPS, and SAPS promoted bone formation inside the PEEK; therefore, each was in charge of intensity and bone regeneration separately. The present study suggests that hybrid scaffolds made from PEEK cages and SAPS can be useful tools for the regeneration of load-bearing bones, based on the idea that it should be possible to develop ideal bone filler materials by combining the strength of artificial bone with the bone regeneration and bone conduction properties of SAPS.

Tool interference causes serious damage to surrounding soft tissue in minimally invasive orthopedic surgery with a milling robot. The objective of this study is to avoid the collision of cutting tool with complicated shapes, and a novel approach of interference-free toolpath generation in a short intraoperative time is proposed. In order to resolve this issue, we propose the following two methods: intraoperative modeling of soft tissues as an interference area and interference-free toolpath generation based on the model. A model is constructed to represent the opening area and the internal tissues by using a 3-dimensional optical position sensor to measure them. Based on the constructed model, interference-free toolpath is immediately determined by the preliminary definition of evacuating direction. The effectiveness of the proposed method is evaluated with artificial models on the system that the authors have developed so far. A tool contact force against the model was measured by a force sensor mounted on the cutting tool. The result revealed that the tool interference was greatly reduced by implementing the proposed method. © 2010 IEEE.

For the total knee arthroplasty, we developed the robotic system, such as the cutting feed rate is controlled depending on the hardness of the bone tissue predicted on the basis of the medical image. Since the cutting force is reduced by this system, the displacement of the bone is minimized during the bone cutting process. Therefore it makes a possibility to fix the target bone using "safer" and "less-invasive fixation technique. © 2010 IEEE.

Giant cell tumor (GCT) of the sacrum is rare and difficult to treat, although several treatment modalities have been reported. Here we report a patient with sacral GCT who underwent selective intra-arterial embolization.<br>The patient, a 23-year-old woman, had been treated with curettage alone at a local hospital. However, 4 months after surgery, MRI showed recurrence of the tumor, and the patient was referred to our hospital for further treatment.<br>After discussion with her and her family, they accepted intra-arterial embolization of the tumor vessels. Embolization using a temporary embolic agent reduced the size of the tumor and the level of serum acid phosphatase (ACP). However, both the tumor size and the level of ACP increased a few months after the procedure. Therefore, embolization was performed using an embolic agent consisting of spherical particles. MRI showed a marked reduction of tumor size 1 month after the last embolization, and the level of serum ACP also fell to less than the standard value.<br>Embolization using a spherical-particulate embolic agent can be an effective treatment for sacral GCT.

Language：Japanese Publisher：The Chugoku-Shikoku Orthopaedic Association

We report a case of valgus knee deformity with patellar dislocation caused by infantile septic arthritis. The patient, a boy, had a congenital heart malformation. He had developed infantile septic arthritis of the knee joint at 1 month of age, and the distal lateral epiphysis of the femur had been affected. At 6 years of age, valgus deformity appeared, and therefore we performed deformity correction and leg lengthening with an Ilizarov fixator. However, the deformity recurred and the patella became dislocated laterally 3 years after initial surgery. In a second operation, we performed osteotomy at two sites of the femur. Distally, we corrected the valgus deformity and reduced the patella by changing the rotation of the femur and overlapping the medial soft tissue. Proximally, we corrected the retroversion and performed lengthening on a gradual basis. In the left leg, the preoperative mLDFA was 110° and the postoperative mLDFA was improved to 90°. As the deformity will likely relapse because of the patientｾs age, we plan to achieve realignment again by corrective surgery.

Retro-odontoid pseudotumor is an inflammatory mass most frequently associated with rheumatoid arthritis and dialysis. Recently, some case reports of retro-odontoid pseudotumor without instability have been published. Here we describe a 63-year-old man who was admitted to our hospital with numbness of the left upper extremity and walking disturbance. MRI showed a large retro-odontoid pseudotumor and severe compression of the spinal cord at the C1 level. The patient underwent C1 laminectomy, posterior occipital-C2 fusion and tumor resection via a transdural approach. Postoperative MRI showed that the retro-odontoid pseudotumor had been partially removed, but this was enough to obtain sufficient decompression of the spinal cord. Neurological symptoms were markedly improved after surgery.

Language：Japanese Publisher：The Chugoku-Shikoku Orthopaedic Association

The development of the locking plate has allowed considerable progress in the treatment of fractures, but few studies have evaluated its usefulness for the treatment of aseptic non-union. We have treated 15 cases of aseptic non-union of long bones in the lower limb (femur : 5, tibia : 10, including 3 periprosthetic non-unions) using locking plates. The initial treatments were external fixation in 1 case, intramedullary nailing in 2, conventional plating in 5, locking plating in 4, and use of a cast only in 3. Nine cases were hypertrophic non-unions and 5 were atrophic non-unions. Union was achieved in all cases, although one case showed correction loss and 5 showed delayed union. These results were quite good, and allowed us to conclude that the locking plate is useful for the treatment of aseptic non-union of bones in the lower limb. Because the degree of bone defect and deformity differs in individual cases, detailed preoperative planning and choice of an appropriate operative technique are needed to achieve good results.
