Retrograde locked intramedullary nailing for aseptic supracondylar femoral nonunion following failed locked plating.
PURPOSE To review the outcome of retrograde locked nailing for aseptic supracondylar femoral nonunions following failed locked plating. METHODS Records of 20 men and 4 women aged 20 to 57 (mean, 39) years who underwent retrograde locked intramedullary nailing for aseptic supracondylar femoral nonunion following failed locked plating were reviewed. There were 20 closed and 4 open Gustilo type ...
متن کاملElastic Stable Intramedullary Nailing of Femoral Shaft Fracture-Experience in 48 Children
Background: Femoral shaft fractures are an incapacitating pediatric injury accounting for 1.6% of all pediatric bonyinjuries. Management of these fractures is largely directed by age, fracture pattern, associated injuries, built of the childand socioeconomic status of the family. We retrospectively evaluated the use of elastic stable intramedullary nail (ESIN)in surgical management of femoral s...
متن کاملRetrograde femoral nailing in elderly patients: outcome and functional results.
Functional outcome after retrograde femoral intramedullary nailing was investigated in 35 patients older than 60 years (mean, 86 years) with 36 fractures, comprising 15 (41.7%) shaft and 21 (58.3%) distal fractures; overall, 7 (19.4%) periprosthetic fractures occured. Twenty-two (62.9%) of 35 patients were evaluated at a mean 16.5-month follow-up with the Lyshom-Gillquist score and the SF-8 que...
متن کاملRetrograde intramedullary nailing for the treatment of femoral medial condyle fracture nonunion
An unicondylar fracture of the femur is uncommon and of the medial condyle more so. Open reduction and internal fixation of these fractures is most commonly performed with screws or plate and screws. Secure bone fixation is compromised by osteoporosis in elderly patients; additional measures may be required. We report the case of an elderly osteoporotic patient with a medial condyle fracture no...
متن کاملPatellar tendon ossification after retrograde intramedullary nailing for distal femoral shaft fracture
RATIONALE Retrograde femoral nailing was one of the most important treatment means for distal femoral shaft fracture. However, studies regarding heterotopic ossification of the patellar tendon after retrograde intramedullary nailing for distal femoral shaft fracture are limited. We herein present a rare complication, namely heterotopic ossification of the patellar tendon, after retrograde intra...
