متن کاملTransphyseal bioabsorbable screws cause temporary growth retardation in rabbit femur.
A self-reinforced bioabsorbable poly-L-lactide/polyglycolide (SR-PLGA) 80/20 screw 2.0 mm in diameter was implanted transphyseally across the distal growth plate of the right femur in 24 immature rabbits. Radiologic evaluation revealed a mean shortening of 3.1 mm at 3 weeks, 11.1 mm at 6 weeks, 9.3 mm at 24 weeks, 9.0 mm at 48 weeks, and 12.6 mm at 72 weeks compared with the intact contralatera...
متن کاملPolyglycolide bioabsorbable screws in the treatment of ankle fractures.
Twenty-one patients with unstable medial malleolar, bimalleolar, or trimalleolar ankle fractures underwent open reduction and internal fixation of the medial malleolus with 4.5-mm polyglycolide screws. All lateral malleolar fractures were internally fixed with standard metallic implants. Radiographic and clinical follow-up results were available on 16 of 21 patients. All fractures healed at an ...
متن کاملBiomechanical stability of bioabsorbable screws for fixation of acetabular osteotomies.
The purpose of this study was to compare the biomechanical stability of triple innominate osteotomies fixed with either bioabsorbable or stainless steel screws. Triple innominate osteotomies were performed on composite hemipelves and fixed with either three 4.5-mm bioabsorbable screws or three stainless steel 4.5-mm screws. Two screws were placed from the iliac wing into the acetabular fragment...
متن کاملBiomechanical analysis of femoral tunnel pull-out angles for anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction with bioabsorbable and metal interference screws.
BACKGROUND Fixation strength of metal and bioabsorbable interference screws has not been evaluated while varying the anterior cruciate ligament graft tension angle. HYPOTHESIS There is no difference in fixation strength between 2 types of interference screws for anterior cruciate ligament graft fixation while the graft tension angle is varied relative to the femoral tunnel. STUDY DESIGN Con...
