Complex AO type C3 distal femur fractures: Results after fixation with a lateral locked plate using modified swashbuckler approach
BACKGROUND Complex AO type C3 fractures of the distal femur are challenging injuries, fraught with complications such as malunion and stiffness. We prospectively evaluated a consecutive series of patients with complex AO type C3 distal femur fractures to determine the clinicoradiological outcome after fixation with a single locked plate using modified swashbuckler approach. MATERIALS AND METH...
متن کاملAre extreme distal periprosthetic supracondylar fractures of the femur too distal to fix using a lateral locked plate?
It is unclear whether there is a limit to the amount of distal bone required to support fixation of supracondylar periprosthetic femoral fractures. This retrospective multicentre study evaluated lateral locked plating of periprosthetic supracondylar femoral fractures and compared the results according to extension of the fracture distal with the proximal border of the femoral prosthetic compone...
متن کاملTransarticular approach and retrograde plate osteosynthesis (TARPO) using implants with angular stability -- a series of 17 cases of complex distal femoral fractures type C3/AO.
AIM The aim of this retrospective study was to evaluate the outcome of distal femoral fractures type C3 AO, using TARPO technique and plates with angular stability. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study included 17 fractures type C3 AO, with 4 open fractures: 1 type I, 1 type II, and 2 type IIIA with bone loss Gustilo. All patients were operated by TARPO technique using Less Invasive Stabilization S...
متن کاملFunctional Results of Unstable (Type 2) Distal Clavicle Fractures Treated with Superior Anterior Locking Plate
Background: The treatment of distal clavicle fracture is always a challenge, as it is mostly unstable and has higherrate of delayed union, malunion, non-union and associated acromioclavicular arthritis. So the management of thesefractures remains controversial. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the functional results of Type 2 distal endclavicle fractures treated with superior anterior l...
متن کاملResults of Single Lateral Locked Plate in Complex Schatzker Type V and VI Tibial Plateau Fractures Using Minimally Invasive Fixation Technique-Surgical Experience in 46 Fractures
Background:Bicondylar tibia plateau fractures are difficult to manage due to complexities of comminuation of articular surfaces, extensive soft tissue injuries, infection and risk of compartment syndrome associated with it. Various modalities including cast, traction or open reduction and internal fixation using single to dual plate fixation technique are now days used. We report our results of...
