Effectiveness of locking versus dynamic compression plates for diaphyseal forearm fractures.
This study compares the results of the locking compression plate (LCP) and the dynamic compression plate (DCP) in the treatment of diaphyseal forearm fractures in adults and defines the indications for the use of the LCP. Forty-two patients with diaphyseal forearm fractures were retrospectively analyzed. Of those, 22 had been treated with the LCP (LCP group) and 20 had been treated with the DCP...
متن کاملLocking plates in proximal humerus fractures.
It is well known that proximal humerus fractures are among the three most frequent fracture types. Epidemiological invetsigations show that in people elder than 60 years the fracture of the proximal humerus is more frequent than fractures of the hip region (17). Over the last decades several techniques have been applied for treatment of proximal humerus fractures. Widely accepted is the initiat...
متن کاملClinical outcomes of allograft with locking compression plates for elderly four-part proximal humerus fractures
BACKGROUND The aim of this study is to explore the clinical outcomes of anatomical allograft or fibula shaft augmentation with locking compression plates (LCPs) in elderly patients with four-part proximal humeral fracture (PHF). METHODS A total of 22 elderly patients with four-part PHF underwent allograft augmentation with LCPs for treatment. Among them, 7 cases received anatomical allograft ...
متن کاملfixation of intertrochanteric fractures: dynamic hip screw versus locking compression plate
conclusions despite the complications of fixation with the dhs device, it remains the most successful for treatment of intertrochanteric fractures. background according to the existing literature, the dynamic hip screw (dhs) is the preferred standard for the treatment of intertrochanteric fractures. however, some surgeons use other devices such as the locking compression plate (lcp). objectives...
متن کاملLocking plate fixation for proximal humerus fractures.
Locking plates are increasingly used to surgically treat proximal humerus fractures. Knowledge of the bone quality of the proximal humerus is important. Studies have shown the medial and dorsal aspects of the proximal humeral head to have the highest bone strength, and this should be exploited by fixation techniques, particularly in elderly patients with osteoporosis. The goals of surgery for p...
