Differences of Bone Mineral Density and Fracture Threshold Between Lumbar Spine Fracture and Control group: Ig Gon Kim, Jae Hyek Kim, Jung Ill Kim, Young Ill Hong; J Korean Soc Fract 2001;14(2):257-264. Published online April 30, 2001; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jksf.2001.14.2.257

Abstract PDF: PURPOSE
The purpose of this study was to show how bone mineral densities of the lumbar spine decrease with aging, to investigate the relationship between the bone mineral densities of the control and fracture group, and to obtain fracture threshold values.
MATERIALS AND METHOD
From January 1995 to December 1999, we measured and evaluated BMD of L3 by DXA in 239 normal volunteers(96 men and 143 women), and in 218 patients with lumbar spine fracture(91 men and 127 women) above 50 years. The Chi-Square test was used for statistical analysis.
RESULTS
1. The average BMD of L3 in control group and lumbar spine fracture group were 0.772+/-0.030 g/cm2 in male and 0.732+/-0 . 0 8 9 g / c m2 i n female and 0.720+/-0 . 0 3 1 g / c m2 in male and 0.692+/-0 . 0 0 2 g / c m2 i n female, respectively.
RESULTS
2. The BMD of the control group and fracture group decreased with aging(p<0.05) and were higher in men than in women. There were statistically significant difference(p<0.001).
RESULTS
3. There were statistically significant difference between BMD of the control group and BMD of the lumbar spine fracture group(p<0.05). The BMD were higher in the control group than fracture group.
RESULTS
4. Fracture threshold of the lumbar spine fracture group were 0.867g/cm2( male: 0.898g /cm2, female:0.836g/cm2) according to 90 percentile.

Operative Treatment with the Reconstruction Plate for the Displaced Clavicle Shaft Fracture of Adults: Ig Gon Kim, Jae Hyek Kim, Ryong Hwang, Young Ill Hong; J Korean Soc Fract 2000;13(4):941-947. Published online October 31, 2000; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jksf.2000.13.4.941

PURPOSE
The purpose of this study was to know the usefulness of bony union and faster recovery of shoulder motions by the open reduction and internal fixation with the reconstruction plate for the displaced clavicle shaft fracture of adults. MATERIAL AND METHOD: From January 1993 to December 1997, for 5 years, we analyzed 28 cases which underwent for a year of displaced clavicular shaft fracture over 11mm after open reduction and internal fixation with the reconstruction plate and supplementary iliac bone graft.
RESULT
At all 28 cases, there were united without delayed union for average 7.2 weeks after operation. Motion of the shoulder joint were returned to normal within 1.8 weeks except two cases who had combined humerus fracture and partial gastrectomy for peptic ulcer.
CONCLUSION
It seems that operative treatment with the reconstruction plate and supplementary bone graft for the displaced clavicle shaft fracture of adults showed effective union and faster recovery of shoulder motions.
