Intravenous iron-dextran: studies on unsaturated iron-binding capacity.

A method is described for measuring the plasma unsaturated iron-binding capacity in the presence of very high concentrations of iron as iron-dextran. The procedure utilizes (59)Fe to label the apotransferrin with subsequent separation of ionic iron from transferrin-bound iron on an ion exchange or Sephadex G.25 column. The unsaturated iron-binding capacity has been measured in rabbits and dogs after intravenous injection of iron-dextran and in human subjects after total dose infusion of iron-dextran. No evidence of saturation of the unsaturated iron-binding capacity was found even when the plasma iron values were greater than 40,000 mug Fe/100 ml.

An evaluation of the Elmslie-Trillat procedure for management of patellar dislocations and subluxations: a preliminary report.

The Elmslie-Trillat procedure involves lateral retinacular release, medial capsular reefing, and medial transposition of the anterior tibial tubercle hinged on a distal periosteal attachment. It is an easily performed procedure and is an excellent method for realignment of the extensor mechanism in cases of dislocation and subluxation of the patella. In our series of 52 cases with 6-24 months postsurgical evaluation, 46 cases, or 88 percent were rated as good or excellent. It must be emphasized that this technique is used only if the epiphyseal plates are closed.
