On the morning of October 24, in the joint surgery ward of the Sixth Hospital of the City, 50-year-old Aunt Chen was excitedly packed her luggage and prepared to be discharged from the hospital. When talking about her experience in medical treatment in the past nine months, Aunt Chen spoke quickly and was very moved.
Aunt Chen suffers from severe congenital hip disease. His body swings violently when walking and has difficulty moving. He also experiences deformity and pain in his right knee joint after adulthood. Although he is disabled due to illness, this congenital optimistic person lives strongly while staggering.
However, two years ago, her hip and knee suffered one after another, and gradually worsened and unable to walk. After seeing the doctor in many places, she came to Nantong Sixth Hospital after hearing a friend's introduction. The Joint Surgery Department of the Sixth Hospital underwent bilateral hip and right knee arthroplasty three times.
The operation effect made her very satisfied: "I went to several hospitals last year, and they all said that the operation was very difficult and difficult to treat. After coming to the Sixth Hospital for surgery, my old problem of joint pain was finally cured. It has been 50 years! I can finally walk normally!"
Rare: Joint replacement is required at 3 places on both hips and one knees
Two years ago, Aunt Chen noticed that her hips and knees always hurt slightly when walking. In the past year, the pain gradually worsened and she had limping and difficulty walking.
After examination in a local hospital, it was found that Aunt Chen suffered from congenital hip dysplasia, dislocation, bilateral femoral head necrosis and severe osteoarthropathy in the right knee.
When the condition is serious, you can only use a wheelchair to transport. Accompanied by your family, Aunt Chen traveled to many hospitals to seek surgical treatment, all of which said that the operation is difficult and cannot be carried out.
After inquiring from many sources, Aunt Chen came to Nantong Sixth Hospital with her name. The team of Deng Jianhua of the Department of Arthritis carefully studied the condition and finally diagnosed it as: bilateral hip (left crope type 3, right four), bilateral femoral head necrosis; right knee rheumatoid arthritis, severe valgus, osteoporosis .
Joint replacement is required, but any surgery is difficult, and the patient has rheumatoid arthritis, and the risk of failure of the surgery is greater.
Great: After 50 years, Aunt Chen can finally walk normally
"Often knee deformities are the most common, and the incidence of valgus is small. During the operation, not only should the valgus deformities be corrected, but the tightness of the internal and external ligaments should be taken into account, strictly control the amount of osteotomy, and remove the surrounding hyperplasia;
In addition, congenital hip dysplasia combined with high dislocation, difficult surgery exposure, large bone defects, and difficult soft tissue balance.
The three surgeries are classic, with high risks and difficult difficulties, which is a great challenge to doctors!" Director Deng Jianhua introduced.
"There will always be difficulties, and there will always be someone to do it." Under the leadership of Director Deng Jianhua, the Department of Arthritis formulated a detailed treatment plan for Aunt Chen, first performing artificial joint replacement of the left hip, and then performing a right hip after 3-4 months, and then performing knee replacement after restoring function.
Each operation is carefully studied, combined with anesthesia, nursing, and rehabilitation, and a rapid rehabilitation treatment plan is formulated in detail. Starting from nutrition, rehabilitation, antibiotics , blood transfusion, surgical methods, analgesia and other aspects, thanks to the joint efforts of all medical staff, fortunately all three surgeries were successfully completed. Basically, I got out of bed and walked the next day after the operation, and was successfully discharged from the hospital about one week after the operation.
50 years,
Aunt Chen finally
You can walk normally!
