Biomechanical evaluation of periprosthetic femoral fracture fixation.
BACKGROUND A variety of methods are available for the fixation of femoral shaft fractures after total hip arthroplasty. However, few studies in the literature have quantified the performance of such repair constructs. The aim of this study was to evaluate biomechanically four different constructs for the fixation of periprosthetic femoral shaft fractures following total hip arthroplasty. METH...
متن کاملFixation for metacarpal neck fracture: a biomechanical study.
BACKGROUND There is no robust evidence of the best operative treatment for displaced unstable metacarpal neck fractures. Numerous constructs are used in the fixation of metacarpal neck fractures. Currently, two common methods are dorsal locking plate and K-wire fixation. A new metacarpal sled fixation system for metacarpal neck fracture was designed to provide fracture stability but limit disse...
متن کاملBiomechanical concepts of fracture healing in weight-bearing long bones.
Fracture healing is a complex process in which mechanical forces are essential for the regeneration of bone tissue. Mechanical loading can induce osteogenesis through the process of mechanotransduction. Current data on how mechanical loading stimulates fracture healing in weight-bearing long bones are presented. The role of mechanosensors, loading-induced interstitial fluid flow, streaming pote...
متن کاملA biomechanical study of conventional acetabular internal fracture fixation versus locking plate fixation.
BACKGROUND Conventional internal fixation entails the use of an interfragmentary lag screw along with a plate. Not all acetabular fractures are amenable to the placement of an interfragmentary lag screw, and the fracture may be displaced during tightening of the interfragmentary lag screw. Locking plates are a possible solution. We sought to determine whether a locking plate construct can provi...
متن کاملBiomechanical evaluation of metacarpal fracture fixation: application of a 90° internal fixation model.
PURPOSE Complications in metacarpal fracture treatment increase in proportion to the severity of the initial injury and the invasiveness of the surgical fixation technique. This manuscript evaluates the feasibility of minimizing internal fixation construct size and soft tissue dissection, while preserving the advantages of stable internal fixation in a biomechanical model. We hypothesized that ...
