 Abstract
 PDF
- Articular cartilage defects are common in orthopedic practice. Most clinical and research efforts focus on restoring the damaged cartilage in connection with osteoarthritis or trauma. This article explains the current clinical approaches for repairing cartilage, as well as the research approaches and those under translation into clinical practice. Tissue engineering techniques are being employed with aims of repopulating a cartilage defect with hyaline cartilage containing living chondrocytes with hopes of improving the clinical outcomes. Cartilage tissue engineering involves the cell source, biomaterial and membranes, and growth stimulators. Tissue engineering is being applied to clinical medicine by autologous chondrocyte implantation or similar techniques. While basic science has refined orthopedic treatment of chondral lesions, available evidence does not conclude the superiority of tissue engineering methods over other techniques in improving the clinical symptoms or restoring the native joint mechanics.

- PURPOSE
The Purpose of the study is to know patients' compliance of drug treatment of osteoporosis after operation of fracture and to compare of accompanying fractures between patients who diagnosed with osteoporosis itself and had the drug treatment of osteoporosis after surgery of periarticular fracture of hip.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
In experimental group, consecutive 60 patients who had fracture of femoral neck and trochanter. And in control group, 61 patients diagnosed osteoporosis with drug treatment within the same period in orthopedic department from July 2006 to July 2007. The average age is 73.8 (+/-6.7) year in experimental group, and 66.6 (+/-7.46) year in control group. Both groups had at least a year follow-up with drug treatment and had BMD again at least a year later.
RESULTS
BMD test in experimental group showed -3.05 (+/-1.35) preoperatively and -2.74 (+/-1.50) in last follow-up. BMD test in control group showed -3.55 (+/-0.52) in initial administration and -3.10 (+/-0.87) in last follow-up. The results showed a significant improvement in statistical analysis (p=0.0002, p<0.0001).
CONCLUSION
The compliance of drug treatment of osteoporosis after operation of periarticular fracture of hip is the same as in patients' diagnosed osteoporosis.
