    Notes: We have performed the first scanning tunneling microscopy (STM) study of gallium adsorption on both the Si-terminated 6H-SiC(0001) ((square root of 3)×(square root of 3)) and C-terminated 6H-SiC(0001¯) (2(square root of 3)×2(square root of 3)) surfaces. The structure of the Ga terminated 6H-SiC surface showed strong polarity dependence. On the Si-terminated (square root of 3)×(square root of 3) surface, parallel rows of Ga atoms arranged in three different domains oriented at 120° with respect to each other at 1 ML coverage were observed. On the C-terminated 2(square root of 3)×2(square root of 3) surface, sets of two concentric rings formed an overall 4(square root of 3)×4(square root of 3) reconstruction at 1 ML coverage. We propose a structural model for the 4(square root of 3)×4(square root of 3) structure which explains the STM image. © 1997 American Institute of Physics.

    Notes: Abstract We investigated the results of 31 hips in 26 patients with nontraumtic (n = 20) and steroid-induced (n = 6) avascular necrosis of the femoral head (ANFH) treated with vascularized iliac pedicle bone graft (PBG). The average age at operation was 38.3 years. Three were women and 23 men. The average follow-up was 8.0 years. The Harris hip score prior to operation and at latest follow-up improved from 62 to 83; one hip collapsed and was revised with a bipolar endoprosthesis. At the final follow-up, 19 hips (63%) were clinically rated as good to excellent, 4 fair, and 7 poor. At the final follow-up, 15 of 27 hips (56%) of stage II before operation showed progressive collapse after bone grafting. In steroid-induced ANFH, in three women, 2 of 4 hips showed poor results. These results are only slightly better than those of core decompression and no better than those obtained after decompression and simple nonvascularized grafts to provide support for the subchondral bone. We concluded that vascularized PBG is sometimes indicated for ANFH in an early stage before collapse of the femoral head.

    Notes: Abstract We reviewed 48 hips in 43 patients 3–7.1 years (average 4.6 years) after Sugioka transtrochanteric rotational osteotomy for osteonecrosis of the femoral head. The average age at operation was 41 years. Thirty-four patients were men and 9 women. Overall results at the final follow-up were satisfactory in 30 hips (62%). Kaplan-Meier's survivorship was 62% at 3 years and 60% at 5 years postoperatively. Six hips for which the ratio of the intact area of the articular surface on the preoperative lateral radiograph was less than 30% showed further collapse. Five hips were converted to bipolar hemiarthroplasties or total hip arthroplasties. Complications, such as varus deformity, subtrochanteric fracture, and ectopic bone formation, occurred in eight hips. Five of them were operated on in the first 2 years of this series. Three of these five operations had unsatisfactory results. We conclude that satisfactory results can be achieved using this osteotomy by maintaining exact surgical technique and by limiting the surgical indications to hips with an intact area of more than one-third of the entire articular surface on the lateral radiograph of the femoral head.

    Scintigraphic evaluation of transtrochanteric rotational osteotomy for osteonecrosis of the femoral head (1997)

    Notes: Abstract Scintigrams and radiographs of 36 femoral heads in 34 patients before and after Sugioka’s transtrochanteric rotational osteotomy for osteonecrosis of the femoral head were investigated prospectively. Patients were followed for more than 3 years after the operation. The patterns of early scintigrams made within 3 months of the operation were classified into four categories. All 4 patients with a large cold area evidenced collapse within 1 year despite good recovery of the weight-bearing surfaces immediately after operation on conventional radiograms. Twenty-two hips with no cold area in the femoral head did not demonstrate collapse. Femoral head collapse after rotational osteotomy can be predicted by early postoperative bone scintigraphy.

    Volumetric bone mineral density using peripheral quantitative computed tomography in Japanese women (1997)

    Notes: Abstract The present study evaluated a commercial device for peripheral quantitative computed tomography (pQCT) and examined the age-related changes in normal Japanese women. The volumetric bone mineral density (vBMD) of the distal radius [integral bone mineral density (BMDI), trabecular bone mineral density (BMDT) and cortical with subcortical bone mineral density (BMDSC)] was measured using pQCT (Norland-Stratec XCT960) in 617 healthy women aged 20–79 years and 75 subjects with osteoporosis aged 60–89 years who exhibited at least one vertebral fracture. The short-term precision errors in vivo (CV, %) were 1.1% for BMDI 1.1% for BMDT and 1.2% for BMDSC. The correlations between pQCT and dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry measurements (Lunar DPX) of the lumbar spine werer∼0.8 (BMDI, BMDT and BMDSC). The maximal mean vBMD values were observed between 20 and 49 years; BMDI BMDT and BMDSC all showed a linear postmenopausal decline averaging 1.1% per year. The overall decreases in vBMD from the peak values in those 70–79 years were 34%, 32% and 33% in BMDI, BMDT and BMDSC, respectively. The diagnostic sensitivity of osteoporosis was expressed as aT-score.T-scores using pQCT were −3.0 (BMDI), −2.4 (BMDT) and −2.9 (BMDSC). Bone mineral measurement of the distal radius may be useful in the evaluation of age-related bone loss and for the diagnosis of osteoporosis.

    Notes: Abstract  Objective. To assess the diagnostic value of magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) as compared with radiographic findings in osteonecrosis in divers. Design and patients. MRI scans and conventional radiographs of the shoulder, hip and knee joints of 23 professional male scuba divers were reviewed together with their clinical findings and personal histories. Correlations between the MRI findings and the radiographic evaluation, clinical symptoms, and personal history were then investigated. Results and conclusions. Lesions found on MRI in 23 divers included 27 in 39 proximal humeri, 17 in 36 proximal femora, 13 in 32 distal femora, and 12 in 32 proximal tibiae. Diffuse, marginated, or irregular patterns were observed. No lesions were seen in epiphyses of the distal femur or proximal tibia. We tried to classify these MRI findings by location and appearance. MRI showed no patients with only one affected bone. A close correlation between the MRI findings and maximum diving depth was observed in the proximal humerus. MRI depicted bone lesions that could not be detected on the radiographs. A routine MRI investigation of the hip joints should be performed in every diver in whom osteonecrosis is diagnosed at another site, for early detection of femoral head osteonecrosis. MRI of the shoulder joint is also the best surveillance in divers who dive deeper than 15 m.
