Herbert screw fixation of scaphoid fractures.
We reviewed the records of 431 patients who had open reduction and internal fixation of the scaphoid performed by one surgeon (TJH) over a 13-year period. The Herbert bone screw provided adequate internal fixation without the use of plaster immobilisation, promoting a rapid functional recovery. On average, patients returned to work 4.7 weeks after surgery and wrist function was significantly im...
متن کاملPercutaneous Screw Fixation for Scaphoid Fractures.
Treatment of nondisplaced scaphoid waist fractures has evolved from conventional cast immobilization to percutaneous screw insertion. This study assessed clinical and radiologic outcomes of volar percutaneous screw fixation for 15 type B2 scaphoid fractures (according to the Herbert and Fisher classification). All patients were followed for an average of 33 months (range, 6-50 months). All frac...
متن کاملBiomechanical stability of intramedullary nailed high proximal third tibial fractures with cement augmented proximal screws.
OBJECTIVE Intramedullary nailing of nonarticular proximal tibia fractures can be affected by bone density resulting in loss of stability, fixation, and malalignment in osteopenic bone. This study was designed to quantify the biomechanical effects of augmenting proximal screws with cement in intramedullary nailing of high proximal third tibial fractures. DESIGN In vitro biomechanical study usi...
متن کاملUnstable proximal extraarticular tibia fractures: a biomechanical evaluation of four methods of fixation.
OBJECTIVE To compare the biomechanical stability of extraarticular proximal tibia fractures reconstructed using a double-plate construct, locking plate system, hybrid external fixator, and single lateral periarticular plate, all from the same manufacturer. DESIGN Standardized proximal tibial fractures (AO classification 41-A3.2 and A3.3) in synthetic tibiae were stabilized using one of the fo...
متن کاملPercutaneous screw fixation for fractures of the scaphoid.
We describe a percutaneous technique for screw fixation of all types of fractures of the scaphoid. During a 15-year period ending in 1984, 280 cases were treated by this method; 198 of them returned for evaluation in 1986 and comprise the material for this report. After a mean postoperative time of 82 months, 89% of the recent fractures had united as well as 81.8% of those with delayed or nonun...
