Abstract

This paper describes the main features of the Macroseismic Database of Italy 2004, which for the first time put together in a critical way the macroseismic data used for the compilation of the CPTI04 (2004) parametric earthquake catalogue. Data come from varied main datasets: i) DOM4.1 (Monachesi e Stucchi, 1997); ii) CFTI version 2 (Boschi et al., 1997) and, for the time-window 1980-2002, CFTI ver- sion 3 (Boschi et al., 2000); iii) Bollettino Macrosismico ING (BMING); iv) Catalogo Macrosismico dei Terremoti Etnei, Azzaro et al. (2000; 2002). In addition, data from recent his- torical and field investigation were also used. DBMI04 contains 58146 macroseismic observa- tions related to 1041 earthquakes and 14161 localities, 12943 of which in Italy. The input data used for the compilation of DBMI04 were not homogeneous with respect to the use of the intensity scale and, mainly, to geo- graphical reference. One of the main task was the organisation of a reliable geographical refer- ence, based on the previous ENEL-ISTAT cata- logue of the Italian localities (ENEL, 1978), which was updated by means of new data. Another task consisted in correcting some mis- takes performed when associating the place- names quoted by the historical sources and the geographical reference. Some problems were solved using ad hoc conventions for dealing with observations not expressed in terms of macroseismic intensity. Il lavoro presenta le soluzioni adottate e la descrizione dell’interfaccia web attraverso la quale il database viene reso disponibile al pub- blico (http://emidius.mi.ingv.it/DBMI04/). This paper presents the adopted solutions and the results, together with the web-interface through which the database is made available to the public (http://emidius.mi.ingv.it/DBMI04/)

Abstract

Digital Pacinian Hyperplasia is a non tumoral, very rare lesion. To date, only 31 cases have been reported, occasionally named Digital Pacinian Neuroma. Digital pain is usually associated to. Local trauma is reported in about half of the cases. We report a new case occurred in a 62 year-old male, associated with inflammatory and foreign body reaction. No recurrence was observed 6 months after surgical excision. Differential diagnosis and controversies about this lesion are discussed.

Abstract

A total of 78 cases of aseptic nonunion of the humeral shaft treated at the third division of the Rizzoli Orthopaedic Institute between 1980 and 1997 were evaluated. There was a mean time of 19 months between trauma and definitive treatment. Surgical treatment consisted in osteosynthesis with a plate and bone grafting in 75 cases, and synthesis with screwed bone grafting alone in 3 cases. Consolidation was obtained in 96% of cases. The bone graft used (homo- or autoplastic) encountered complete osteointegration in a maximum time of 8 months. Postoperative motility of the shoulder and elbow were comparable to the preoperative findings.

4. Osteosynthesis with percutaneous wiring in fractures of the proximal humerus.

Abstract

The authors report the preliminary results of osteosynthesis with percutaneous wiring in the treatment of fractures of the proximal humerus. This method which is still described in very few cases, is characterized by several advantages such as its minor invasiveness, and respect for vascularization of the fragments that guarantee good functional results. The application of threaded pins or pins of large diameter guarantees excellent hold with a low incidence of loosening secondary to loss of reduction. The use of a traction device applied to the surgical table simplifies reduction maneuvers and osteosynthesis.

Abstract

The authors reviewed 44 inveterate fractures of the acetabulum treated surgically by internal osteosynthesis. The definition of inveterate fracture concerns lesions that are treated from 21 to 90 days after trauma. Based on an analysis of this series several features of a prognostic and therapeutic nature may be determined. In particular, it may be observed just how difficult it is to standardize therapeutic strategies in relation to polymorphism and anatomopathologic progression of the lesions.

6. Arthrodesis of the knee after tumor resection: a comparison between autografts and allografts.

Abstract

Cases of arthrodesis of the knee performed after bone tumor resection using autografts (Group I) and allografts (Group II) were compared (follow-up was comparable). The two groups show differences in type of pathology, treatment and length of resection. Nonetheless, the percentage of complications and the final results were similar. Despite the fact that arthrodesis of the knee is used less and less for reconstruction, it is our belief that the use of autografts should be substituted by allografts whenever possible.

Abstract

A multicentric study was conducted by the European Musculoskeletal Oncology Society on 113 cases of resection for tumors of the major long bones and reconstruction with massive allografts, as intercalary diaphyseal or for arthrodesis. The follow-up was at least 12 months. There was a 14% incidence of infection, with a higher frequency (18.5%) in intercalary grafts as compared to arthrodeses (7%). Fracture of the graft occurred in 15.5% of the cases with a prevalence in the humerus (28.5%) as compared to the tibia (21.4%) and femur (14.7%). Fracture constantly occurred after osteosynthesis with screws, in 16% of the cases after osteosynthesis with a plate, and in 12.5% of the cases after osteosynthesis with an intramedullary nail. It was observed in 32% of the grafts preserved at -30 degrees, in 17% of those irradiated, and in 7% and 7.6% of those preserved at -180 degrees and -80 degrees, respectively. Delayed union and non-union was observed in 57% of the cases: 63% in intercalary grafts, 48% in arthrodeses. Final results after treatment of complications were excellent and good in 63% of the entire series. The results should, however, be evaluated after 3 years, as during this period of time important transformation phenomena of the graft occur. Complications are observed in 75% of the cases, but they may be reduced if planning is correct and surgery is accurate. Each complication may be dealt with and resolved without high risks for preservation of the limb.
