An alternative technique for transosseous calcaneal pinning in external fixation.
The authors describe a technique in which two 5.5-mm pins are inserted from the posterior aspect of the calcaneus and advanced anteriorly on a slightly convergent vector. The 2 points of fixation, with a 5/8 ring, provide a "steering wheel" effect allowing for leverage and control of the hindfoot and ankle. The construct also allows for offloading of the posterior calcaneus.
متن کاملClinical Results of Percutaneous Fixation of Pelvic and Acetabular Fractures: A Minimally Invasive Internal Fixation Technique
Background: The pelvic ring fractures (PRF) and acetabular fractures (AF) are among the major orthopedic injuriesassociated with high rates of morbidity and mortality. Open surgical stabilization is the standard treatment for themajority of these complications. Percutaneous minimally invasive surgical stabilization of the fractures has become anaccepted treatment method for th...
متن کاملSurgical Treatment of Pertrochanteric Fractures Using Personal External Fixation System and Technique
In 126 elderly patients pertrochanteric fractures were treated using Mitkovic external fixation system. All fractures healed within 10 weeks. Eleven patients had a superficial pin tract infection and one deep infection. In 11 patients the fracture united with a shortening of 18 (10-40) mm. The causes for the shortening were impaction (17) and varisation (5). There was neither implant failure no...

متن کاملHumeral Supracondylar Fractures in Children: A Novel Technique of Lateral External Fixation and Kirschner Wiring
Introduction: Supracondylar fracture of the humerus is the most common fracture around the elbow in children. Pinning with Kirschner wires (K-wires) after open or closed reduction is generally accepted as the primary treatment modality. However, it comes with the risk of persistent instability and if the K-wire is not inserted properly, it may cause displacement and varus deformity. We present ...
