Closed unlocked nailing for comminuted femoral fractures.
Fifty consecutive comminuted fractures of the femoral shaft were treated by closed unlocked intramedullary nailing. Twelve unstable fractures also had cast-bracing. There were no cases of infection or non-union, and satisfactory results were achieved in 38 fractures (76%). More severe comminution led to a higher incidence of unsatisfactory results, but malrotation deformity was seen more often ...
متن کاملClosed Küntscher nailing for comminuted femoral shaft fractures.
From a series of 190 consecutive fractures of the shaft of the femur treated by closed Küntscher nailing, 32 of the more severely comminuted have been studied to determine whether treatment by closed nailing was justified. Radiological criteria were used to divide them into 19 who were moderately comminuted and 13 grossly so. Twenty-four patients were less than 21 years of age and 19 patients h...
متن کاملPrimary unreamed and unlocked intramedullary nailing of femoral shaft fractures.
ABSTRACT In this retrospective study, we present our experience using open Küntscher nailing (K-nailing) which is still performed in developing countries for femoral fractures. Of 157 acute fractures treated between January 2003 and December 2009, 100 were stable (63.7%) and 135 were located within the middle third of the shaft (86%). Comminution was absent or minimal in 135 (86%) cases. Fractu...
متن کاملPrimary Unreamed And Unlocked Intramedullary Nailing For Open Tibial Fractures
Results: There were 124 men and 25 women with a mean age of 35 (16 to 72) years. Fractures were caused in the majority of cases (130 cases, 87.2%) by traffic accidents. Fractures were classified according to Cauchoix system into 96 grade I, 55 grade II, and 3 grade III. The duration of follow-up averaged nine (3 to 25) months. Infections (softtissue and bone) were encountered in 30 (19.5%) frac...
متن کاملRetrograde nailing of femoral fractures.
PURPOSE OF THE STUDY Retrograde nailing represents an established fixation method for fractures of the distal femur and offers in femoral shaft fractures an alternative to the existing technique of antegrade nailing. The aim of this study was to investigate in a retrospective analysis the results of retrograde nailing in distal femoral fractures and selected cases of femoral shaft fractures. Em...
