Distal tibia fractures: locked or non-locked plating?
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Although plating is considered to be the treatment of choice in distal tibia fractures, controversies abound regarding the type of plating for optimal fixation. We conducted a systematic review to evaluate and compare the outcomes of locked plating and non-locked plating in treatment of distal tibia fractures. PATIENTS AND METHODS A systematic review was conducted using...
متن کاملLocked plating of distal femur fractures leads to inconsistent and asymmetric callus formation.
OBJECTIVES Locked plating constructs may be too stiff to reliably promote secondary bone healing. This study used a novel imaging technique to quantify periosteal callus formation of distal femur fractures stabilized with locking plates. It investigated the effects of cortex-to-plate distance, bridging span, and implant material on periosteal callus formation. DESIGN Retrospective cohort stud...
متن کاملStaged external and internal locked plating for open distal tibial fractures
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Based on reported success with staged treatment of distal tibial fractures, we designed a 2-stage protocol including external/internal locked plating. We retrospectively assessed the outcome of open distal tibial fractures treated according to this protocol. PATIENTS AND METHODS From March 2006 through July 2008, 16 patients who sustained open distal tibial fractures we...
متن کاملClinical outcomes of locked plating of distal femoral fractures in a retrospective cohort
PURPOSE Locked plating (LP) of distal femoral fractures has become very popular. Despite technique suggestions from anecdotal and some early reports, knowledge about risk factors for failure, nonunion (NU), and revision is limited. The purpose of this study was to analyze the complications and clinical outcomes of LP treatment for distal femoral fractures. MATERIALS AND METHODS From two traum...
متن کاملRetrograde Nailing versus Locked Plating of Extra-Articular Distal Femoral Fractures: Comparison of 36 Cases
OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to retrospectively evaluate the use of locked plating (LP) and retrograde nailing (RN) for treating extra-articular distal femoral fractures. MATERIALS AND METHODS From January 2004 to March 2009, 36 patients with extra-articular distal femoral fractures were surgically treated at our Trauma Center. The patients were divided into two groups according to...
