Background: Recent research has shown an increased risk of accidents and injuries in ADHD patients, which could potentially be reduced by stimulant treatment. Therefore, the first aim of our study was to evaluate the prevalence of adult ADHD in a trauma surgery population. The second aim was to investigate accident mechanisms and circumstances which could be specific to ADHD patients, in comparison to the general population. Methods: We screened 905 accident victims for ADHD using the ASRS 18-item self-report questionnaire. The basic demographic data and circumstances of the accidents were also assessed. Results: Prevalence of adult ADHD was found to be 6.18% in our trauma surgery patient sample. ADHD accident victims reported significantly higher rates of distraction, stress and overconfidence in comparison to non-ADHD accident victims. Overconfidence and being in thoughts as causal mechanisms for the accidents remained significantly higher in ADHD patients after correction for multiple comparison. ADHD patients additionally reported a history of multiple accidents. Conclusion: The majority of ADHD patients in our sample had not previously been diagnosed and were therefore not receiving treatment. The results subsequently suggest that general ADHD screening in trauma surgery patients may be useful in preventing further accidents in ADHD patients. Furthermore, psychoeducation regarding specific causal accident mechanisms could be implemented in ADHD therapy to decrease accident incidence rate.
Characteristics and injury patterns in electric-scooter related accidents - a prospective two-center report from Germany (2020)
Störmann, Philipp ; Klug, Alexander ; Nau, Christoph ; Verboket, René ; Leiblein, Maximilian ; Müller, Daniel ; Schweigkofler, Uwe ; Hoffmann, Reinhard ; Marzi, Ingo ; Lustenberger, Thomas
Since the introduction of rental E-scooters in Germany in mid-June 2019, the safety of this new means of transport has been the subject of extensive public debate. However, valid data on injuries and usage habits are not yet available. This retrospective two-center study included a total of 76 patients who presented to the emergency department following E-scooter-related accidents. The mean age was 34.3 ± 12.4 years and 69.7% of the patients were male. About half of the patients were admitted by ambulance (42.1%). Fractures were found in 48.6% of patients, and 27.6% required surgical treatment due to a fracture. The upper extremities were the most commonly affected body region, followed by injuries to the lower extremity and to the head and face. Only one patient had worn a helmet. In-hospital treatment was necessary for 26.3% of the cases. Patients presented to the emergency department mainly during the weekend and on-call times. This is the first report on E-scooter-related injuries in Germany. Accidents with E-scooters can cause serious injuries and, therefore, represent a further burden to emergency departments. The use of E-scooters appears to be mostly recreational, and the rate of use of protective gear is low.
Fibrous demineralized bone matrix (DBM) improves bone marrow mononuclear cell (BMC)-supported bone healing in large femoral bone defects in rats (2021)
Verboket, René ; Irrle, Tanja ; Busche, Yannic ; Schaible, Alexander ; Schröder, Katrin ; Brune, Jan C. ; Marzi, Ingo ; Nau, Christoph ; Henrich, Dirk
Regeneration of large bone defects is a major objective in trauma surgery. Bone marrow mononuclear cell (BMC)-supported bone healing was shown to be efficient after immobilization on a scaffold. We hypothesized that fibrous demineralized bone matrix (DBM) in various forms with BMCs is superior to granular DBM. A total of 65 male SD rats were assigned to five treatment groups: syngenic cancellous bone (SCB), fibrous demineralized bone matrix (f-DBM), fibrous demineralized bone matrix densely packed (f-DBM 120%), DBM granules (GDBM) and DBM granules 5% calcium phosphate (GDBM5%Ca2+). BMCs from donor rats were combined with different scaffolds and placed into 5 mm femoral bone defects. After 8 weeks, bone mineral density (BMD), biomechanical stability and histology were assessed. Similar biomechanical properties of f-DBM and SCB defects were observed. Similar bone and cartilage formation was found in all groups, but a significantly bigger residual defect size was found in GDBM. High bone healing scores were found in f-DBM (25) and SCB (25). The application of DBM in fiber form combined with the application of BMCs shows promising results comparable to the gold standard, syngenic cancellous bone. Denser packing of fibers or higher amount of calcium phosphate has no positive effect.
Falls from Great Heights: Risk to Sustain Severe Thoracic and Pelvic Injuries Increases with Height of the Fall (2021)
Nau, Christoph ; Leiblein, Maximilian ; Verboket, René ; Hörauf, Jason-Alexander ; Sturm, Ramona ; Marzi, Ingo ; Störmann, Philipp
Falls from a height are a common cause of polytrauma care in Level I Trauma Centers worldwide. The expected injury consequences depend on the height of the fall and the associated acceleration, as well as the condition of the ground. In addition, we further hypothesize a correlation between the cause of the fall, the age of the patient, and the patient’s outcome. A total of 178 trauma patients without age restriction who were treated in our hospital after a fall >3 m within a 5-year period were retrospectively analyzed. The primary objective was a clinically and radiologically quantifiable increase in the severity of injuries after falls from different relevant heights (>3 m, >6 m, and >9 m). The cause of the fall, either accidental or suicidal; age and duration of intensive care unit stay, including duration of ventilation; and total hospital stay were analyzed. Additionally, the frequency of urgent operations, such as, external fixation of fractures or hemi-craniectomies, laboratory parameters; and clinical outcomes were also among the secondary objectives. Sustaining a thoracic trauma or pelvis fractures increases significantly with height, and vital parameters are significantly compromised. We also found significant differences in urgent pre- and in-hospital emergency interventions, as well as organ complications and outcome parameters depending on the fall’s height.
From two stages to one: acceleration of the induced membrane (Masquelet) technique using human acellular dermis for the treatment of non-infectious large bone defects (2020)
Verboket, René ; Leiblein, Maximilian ; Janko, Maren Carina ; Schaible, Alexander ; Brune, Jan C. ; Schröder, Katrin ; Myriam Widad, Heilani ; Fremdling, Charlotte ; Busche, Yannic ; Irrle, Tanja ; Marzi, Ingo ; Nau, Christoph Heinrich Eugen ; Henrich, Dirk
Introduction: The induced membrane technique for the treatment of large bone defects is a two-step procedure. In the first operation, a foreign body membrane is induced around a spacer, then, in the second step, several weeks or months later, the spacer is removed and the Membrane pocket is filled with autologous bone material. Induction of a functional biological membrane might be avoided by initially using a biological membrane. In this study, the effect of a human acellular dermis (hADM, Epiflex, DIZG gGmbH) was evaluated for the treatment of a large (5 mm), plate-stabilised femoral bone defect. Material and Methods: In an established rat model, hADM was compared to the two-stage induced membrane technique and a bone defect without membrane cover. Syngeneous spongiosa from donor animals was used for defect filling in all groups. The group size in each case was n = 5, the induction time of the membrane was 3–4 weeks and the healing time after filling of the defect was 8 weeks. Results: The ultimate loads were increased to levels comparable with native bone in both membrane groups (hADM: 63.2% ± 29.6% of the reference bone, p < 0.05 vs. no membrane, induced membrane: 52.1% ± 25.8% of the reference bone, p < 0.05 vs. no membrane) and were significantly higher than the control group without membrane (21.5%). The membrane groups were radiologically and histologically almost completely bridged by new bone formation, in contrast to the control Group where no closed osseous bridging could be observed. Conclusion: The use of the human acellular dermis leads to equivalent healing results in comparison to the two-stage induced membrane technique. This could lead to a shortened therapy duration of large bone defects.

Introduction: Cell-based therapy by bone marrow mononuclear cells (BMC) in a large-sized bone defect has already shown improved vascularization and new bone formation. First clinical trials are already being conducted. BMC were isolated from bone marrow aspirate and given back to patients in combination with a scaffold within some hours. However, the optimal concentration of BMC has not yet been determined for bone healing. With this study, we want to determine the optimal dosage of the BMC in the bone defect to support bone healing. Material and methods: Scaffolds with increasing BMC concentrations were inserted into a 5 mm femoral defect, cell concentrations of 2 × 106 BMC/mL, 1 × 107 BMC/mL and 2 × 107 BMC/mL were used. Based on the initial cell number used to colonize the scaffolds, the groups are designated 1 × 106, 5 × 106 and 1 × 107 group. Bone healing was assessed biomechanically, radiologically (µCT), and histologically after 8 weeks healing time. Results: Improved bone healing parameters were noted in the 1 × 106 and 5 × 106 BMC groups. A significantly higher BMD was observed in the 1 × 106 BMC group compared to the other groups. Histologically, a significantly increased bone growth in the defect area was observed in group 5 × 106 BMC. This finding could be supported radiologically. Conclusion: It was shown that the effective dose of BMC for bone defect healing ranges from 2 × 106 BMC/mL to 1 × 107 BMC/mL. This concentration range seems to be the therapeutic window for BMC-supported therapy of large bone defects. However, further studies are necessary to clarify the exact BMC-dose dependent mechanisms of bone defect healing and to determine the therapeutically effective range more precisely.
Clostridial gas gangrene ‐ a rare but deadly infection: case series and comparison to other necrotizing soft tissue infections (2020)
Leiblein, Maximilian ; Wagner, Nils ; Adam, Elisabeth ; Frank, Johannes ; Marzi, Ingo ; Nau, Christoph
Objective: Clostridial gas gangrene (GG) or clostridial myonecrosis is a very rare but life‐threatening necrotizing soft tissue infection (NSTI) caused by anaerobic, spore‐forming, and gas‐producing clostridium subspecies. It is the most rapidly spreading and lethal infection in humans, also affecting muscle tissue. The high mortality, of up to 100%, in clostridial GG is mediated by potent bacterial exotoxins. Necrotizing fasciitis (NF) is an important differential diagnosis, most often caused by group A streptococci, primarily not affecting musculature but the subcutaneous tissue and fascia. In the early stages of the infection, it is difficult to distinguish between GG and NF. Therefore, we compare both infection types, identify relevant differences in initial clinical presentation and later course, and present the results of our patients in a retrospective review. Methods: Patients diagnosed with GG from 2008 to 2018 in our level one trauma center were identified. Their charts were reviewed retrospectively and data analyzed in terms of demographic information, microbiological and histological results, therapeutic course, outcome, and mortality rates. The laboratory risk indicator for NF (LRINEC) score was applied on the first blood work acquired. Results were compared to those of a second group diagnosed with NF. Results: Five patients with GG and nine patients with NF were included in the present study. Patients with GG had a mortality rate of 80% compared to 0% in patients with NF. In eight patients with NF, affected limbs could be salvaged; one NF underwent amputation. LRINEC did not show significant differences between the groups; however, C‐reactive protein was significantly increased (P = 0.009) and hemoglobin (Hb) was significantly decreased (P = 0.02) in patients with GG. Interleukin‐6 and procalcitonin levels did not show significant difference. Patients with GG were older (70.2 vs 50 years). Of the isolated bacteria, 86% were sensitive to the initial calculated antibiotic treatment with ampicillin‐sulbactam or imipenem plus metronidazole plus clindamycin. Conclusion: Both GG and NF need full‐scale surgical, antibiotic, and intensive care treatment, especially within the first days. Among patients with NSTI, those with clostridial GG have a significantly increased mortality risk due to early septic shock caused by clostridial toxins. In the initial stages, clinical differences are hardly detectable. Immediate surgical debridement is the key to successful therapy for NSTI and needs to be performed as early as possible. However, patients should be treated in a center with an experienced interdisciplinary intensive care team based on a predetermined treatment plan.
Size matters: Effect of granule size of the bone graft substitute (Herafill®) on bone healing using Masquelet's induced membrane in a critical size defect model in the rat's femur (2019)

The Masquelet technique for the treatment of large bone defects is a two‐stage procedure based on an induced membrane. The size of a scaffold is reported to be a critical factor for bone healing response. We therefore aimed to investigate the influence of the granule size of a bone graft substitute on bone marrow derived mononuclear cells (BMC) supported bone healing in combination with the induced membrane. We compared three different sizes of Herafill® granules (Heraeus Medical GmbH, Wehrheim) with or without BMC in vivo in a rat femoral critical size defect. A 10 mm defect was made in 126 rats and a membrane induced by a PMMA‐spacer. After 3 weeks, the spacer was taken out and membrane filled with different granule sizes. After 8 weeks femurs were taken for radiological, biomechanical, histological, and immunohistochemical analysis. Further, whole blood of the rat was incubated with granules and expression of 29 peptide mediators was assessed. Smallest granules showed significantly improved bone healing compared to larger granules, which however did not lead to an increased biomechanical stability in the defect zone. Small granules lead to an increased accumulation of macrophages in situ which could be assigned to the inflammatory subtype M1 by majority. Increased release of chemotactic respectively proangiogenic active factors in vitro compared to syngenic bone and beta‐TCP was observed. Granule size of the bone graft substitute Herafill® has significant impact on bone healing of a critical size defect in combination with Masquelet's technique in terms of bone formation and inflammatory.
Secondary angio-embolization after emergent pelvic stabilization and pelvic packing is a safe option for patients with persistent hemorrhage from unstable pelvic ring injuries (2020)
Lustenberger, Thomas ; Störmann, Philipp ; Eichler, Kathrin ; Nau, Christoph ; Janko, Maren Carina ; Marzi, Ingo
Introduction: In patients with severe pelvic ring injuries, exsanguination still is the leading cause of death in the early post-injury phase. While mechanical pelvic ring stabilization and pre-peritoneal pelvic packing are mainly addressing venous bleeding, angio-embolization aims to control arterial bleeding. The goal of the present study was to evaluate the rate of postoperative angio-embolization after mechanical pelvic ring injury stabilization and pre-peritoneal pelvic packing. Bleeding sources detected in the angiography and the patient's outcome were investigated. Patients and Methods: Retrospective observational cohort study at a single academic level I trauma center, reviewing all patients with pelvic ring injuries admitted from 01/2010 to 12/2019. Patients with emergent mechanical pelvic ring stabilization (supraacetabular external fixator and/or pelvic C-clamp) and direct pre-peritoneal pelvic packing were further analyzed. Patients that underwent postoperative angio-embolization were compared with those that did not. All postoperative angio-embolizations were evaluated with regards to bleeding sources and type of embolization. Results: During the study period, a total of 39 patients required immediate mechanical pelvic stabilization and direct pre-peritoneal pelvic packing. Of these, 12 patients (30.8%) underwent a postoperative angio-embolization. The following vessels were identified as bleeding sources: superior gluteal artery (n = 6), obturator artery (n = 2), internal pudendal artery (n = 2), unnamed branches of the internal iliac artery (n = 3). A selective embolization was successful in 11 patients; in 1 patient, an unilateral complete occlusion of the internal iliac artery was performed to control the bleeding. Mean time from hospital admission to the surgical procedure was 52.8 ± 14.7 min and the mean time from admission to angio-embolization was 189.1 ± 55.5 min. The in-hospital mortality rate of patients with angio-embolization was 25.0% (n = 3). Of these, 2 patients died due to multiple organ failure and 1 patient due to severe head injury. Conclusion: Secondary angio-embolization after external pelvic fixation and pre-peritoneal pelvic packing was effective in controlling ongoing bleeding. The most frequently detected bleeding vessel was the superior gluteal artery, which is difficult to surgically address, further highlighting the importance of angio-embolization in the management algorithm.

Meeting abstract : Deutscher Kongress für Orthopädie und Unfallchirurgie (DKOU 2012), 23.10.-26.10.2012, Berlin. Fragestellung: Die Behandlung langstreckiger Knochendefekte ist eine große Herausforderung. Die Masquelet-Technik zur Behandlung solcher Defekte ist eine zweizeitige Operationstechnik. Zuerst erfolgt die Insertion eines PMMA (Polymethylmethacrylat)-Zementspacers in den Knochendefekt, der die Bildung einer Membran induziert. Diese Membran enthält Wachstumsfaktoren und regenerative Zellen, die möglicherweise die Knochenheilung unterstützen. Nach einigen Wochen wird der Zementspacer entfernt und der induzierte Membranschlauch mit Beckenkammspongiosa aufgefüllt. Im weiteren Verlauf kommt es zu einer kompletten Knochenheilung. Ziele dieser Untersuchung waren die Etablierung der Masquelettechnik am Rattenmodell und die Definition eines Zeitpunkts, an welchem die Membran eine ausreichende Festigkeit sowie einen signifikanten Gehalt von Vorläuferzellen aufweist. Methodik: Nach Genehmigung der Experimente wurden die Femura von 24 männlichen SD-Ratten osteotomiert. Die Lücke (10 mm) wurde mit PMMA-Zement aufgefüllt und mittels Miniplatte stabilisiert. Parallel wurden den Versuchstieren gleich große PMMA-Spacer subcutan unter die Rückenhaut implantiert. Nach 2, 4, bzw. 6 Wochen (W) erfolgte die Entnahme der Membranen. Ein Teil der Membran wurde für (immun)histologische Untersuchungen aufbereitet (CD34, vWF, van Giesson), ein Teil für die in vitro Kultur. Auswachsende Vorläuferzellen in vitro wurden über CD34 und STRO-1-Färbung nachgewiesen. Statistik: Mediane, Kruskal-Wallis-Test, p<0,05 ist signifikant. Ergebnisse und Schlussfolgerungen: Im zeitlichen Verlauf nahmen die Vaskularisierung (vWF-positive Fläche [%]: 2 W: 1,8; 4 W:1.6 vs 6 W: 6,4), die Dicke der Membran ([µm]: 2 W: 350 vs 4W: 517, 6 W: 592) und der Bindegewebsanteil ([µm]: 2W: 201 vs 4W: 324, 6W: 404) signifikant zu. Der Hauptanteil elastischer Fasern war auf der dem Zement zugewandten Seite, Vaskularisierung war eher auf der Weichteil zugewandten Seite zu finden. Der Anteil CD34 positiver Zellen nahm signifikant ab (2W: 5%, 4 W: 4% vs 6 W: 1%). Auswachsende STRO-1 positive Zellen konnten nur in zweiwöchigen Membranen nachgewiesen werden. Ältere Membranen wiesen einen zunehmenden Anteil seneszenter Zellen auf. Subcutan induzierte Membranen waren vergleichbar, wiesen jedoch tendentiell eine geringere Dicke und keine STRO-1 positiven Zellen auf. Mit dieser Studie wurde erstmalig die Induktion einer Membran nach Masquelet im Rattenmodell etabliert. Es konnte nachgewiesen werden, dass der strukturelle Aufbau sowie die zellulären Komponenten zeitlichen Änderungen unterliegen und der Ort der Induktion Einfluss auf die zellulären Komponenten der Membran hat. Junge Membranen (2W) enthielten CD34 und STRO-1 positive Zellen. 4W-Membranen enthielten nur CD34 positive Zellen wiesen aber einen signifikanten Bindegewebsanteil auf, der für eine erhöhte mechanische Stabilität spricht. Ob 2 bzw. 4 Wochen alte Membranen den Knochenheilungsprozess fördern, muss in weiterführenden Studien untersucht werden.
