Clinical results of treatment using a clavicular hook plate versus a T-plate in neer type II distal clavicle fractures.
AO clavicular hook plate fixation provides more rigid fixation and good bony union rates for Neer type II distal clavicular fractures. However, the hook may cause rotator cuff tears and subacromial impingement, which adversely affect the clinical results. T-plate fixation is another surgical method of treatment for unstable clavicle fractures, and its clinical efficacy has been demonstrated. Th...
متن کاملClavicular hook plate for grade-III acromioclavicular dislocation.
PURPOSE To review the outcomes of clavicular hook plate fixation for grade-III acromioclavicular (AC) dislocation in young athletes. METHODS Medical records of 14 male and 5 female athletes aged 18 to 49 (mean, 29) years who underwent fixation with a 3.5-mm-thick, 15-mm-long clavicular hook plate for acute grade-III AC dislocation were reviewed. The visual analogue score for pain and the Cons...
متن کاملSling compared with plate osteosynthesis for treatment of displaced midshaft clavicular fractures: a randomized clinical trial.
BACKGROUND Few randomized controlled trials have compared operative with nonoperative treatment of clavicular fractures. METHODS Patients with displaced midshaft clavicular fractures were randomized either to nonoperative treatment with a sling or to operative treatment with a stainless steel 3.5-mm reconstruction plate. Outcome measures were the Constant shoulder score, DASH (Disabilities of...
متن کاملFixation failure of the clavicular hook plate: a report of three cases.
Open reduction and internal fixation for unstable fractures of the lateral end of the clavicle (Neer type II) is not complication-free. Most clavicle fractures can be successfully treated by conservative methods. Neer type II fractures have a reportedly high rate of nonunion, therefore internal fixation is recommended. However, the need for surgical treatment remains controversial as nonunion s...
متن کاملClavicular hook plate may induce subacromial shoulder impingement and rotator cuff lesion - dynamic sonographic evaluation
BACKGROUND Clavicular hook plates are effective fixation devices for distal clavicle fractures and severe acromioclavicular joint dislocations. However, increasing number of studies has revealed that subacromial portion of the hook may induce acromial bony erosion, shoulder impingement, or even rotator cuff damage. By sonographic evaluation, we thus intended to determine whether the presence of...
