Twin hook fixation for proximal femoral fractures.
PURPOSE To report results of twin hook fixation for proximal femoral fractures in comparison to those fixed with the conventional lag screw. METHODS Between August 2005 and July 2006, 2 men and 15 women aged 74 to 94 (mean, 85) years with proximal femoral fractures underwent open reduction and internal fixation using the twin hook system. The tip-apex distance was compared with that in 20 pat...
متن کاملShort proximal femoral nail fixation for trochanteric fractures.
PURPOSE To review outcomes of 100 patients who underwent short proximal femoral nailing for stable and unstable intertrochanteric fractures. METHODS Records of 62 men and 38 women aged 56 to 83 (mean, 67) years who underwent short proximal femoral nailing for stable peritrochanteric A1 (n=36), unstable peritrochanteric A2 (n=40), and unstable intertrochanteric A3 (n=24) fractures were reviewe...
متن کاملThe cost and consequences of proximal femoral fractures which require further surgery following initial fixation.
We evaluated the cost and consequences of proximal femoral fractures requiring further surgery because of complications. The data were collected prospectively in a standard manner from all patients with a proximal femoral fracture presenting to the trauma unit at the John Radcliffe Hospital over a five-year period. The total cost of treatment for each patient was calculated by separating it int...
متن کاملComparison of close reduction and percutaneous pin fixation as treatments for distal metaphyseal radius fractures
Background: Distal radius fractures are one of the most common fractures of skeletal system and because of the aging of population, its incidence is rising. The aim of the present research was to evaluate the close reduction and percutaneous pin fixation as a treatment option. Material and methods: 44 patients who were type 2 according to universal classification or type 2 or 3 according to Ol...
متن کاملExternal pin fixation for unstable Colles' fractures.
During a five-year period, a double-pin Roger Anderson apparatus, with pins perpendicularly placed in the second and third metacarpals and in the distal part of the radius, was applied in 130 patients with an unstable Colles fracture. Sixty of the 130 were followed for two years. Shortening was limited to a median of two millimeters and dorsal angulation, to a median of 3 degrees. Wrist dorsifl...
