Proximal femoral nail for treatment of trochanteric femoral fractures.
PURPOSE To report outcomes of 87 consecutive patients treated with a proximal femoral nail (PFN) for trochanteric femoral fractures. METHODS 17 men and 70 women aged 58 to 95 (mean, 85) years with trochanteric femoral fractures underwent PFN fixation using an intramedullary nail, a lag screw, and a hip pin. Fractures were classified according to the AO system; the most common fracture type wa...
متن کاملSubcapital femoral neck fracture after fixation of an intertrochanteric fracture with a proximal femoral nail: a report of two cases.
Subcapital femoral neck fractures are a rare complication after fixation of an intertrochanteric fracture with a proximal femoral nail. We report 2 such cases where the patients had severe osteoporosis, based on Singh's index and pathological findings. In one case there was a technical error leading to a tip-apex distance of more than 20 mm, but osteoporosis appeared to be a more significant ca...
متن کاملSegmentation of Femoral Head from CT after Femoral Neck Fracture
We present a semi-automatic method for femoral head segmentation from CT dataset based on finding an optimal path through a polar transformation of axial slices. The cost function is a combination of corticallis properties (the directional behavior of 3D gradients and their magnitude in 2D slices, where they form typical ”channels”). The volume is computed using filling and morphological operat...
متن کاملTrochanteric femoral nail
Introduction Unstable intertrochanteric hip fractures can be difficult surgical challenges. Screw and side plate devices reliably stabilize stable fracture patterns [1,2], but unstable fractures require a mechanically optimized device and better implant purchase in the femoral head. These fractures have been more prone to implant failure with standard devices [3, 4]. The trochanteric femoral na...
متن کاملOutcomes of trochanteric femoral fractures treated with proximal femoral nail: an analysis of 100 consecutive cases
PURPOSE In this study, we aimed to report the results of a retrospective study carried out at our institute regarding cases of patients who had suffered proximal femoral fractures between January 2002 and February 2007, and who were treated with a proximal femoral nail. MATERIALS AND METHODS One hundred consecutive cases were included in the study. A case documentation form was used to obtain...
