Management of calcaneal fractures using the Ilizarov external fixator.
Twenty five intra-articular fractures of the calcaneus in 25 patients were reduced through a minimal incision and fixed with an Ilizarov external fixator. The average age of patients was 38.6 years (range: 17 to 62 years). According to the Sanders CT classification, 10 (40%) were type II, 9 (36%) type III, and 6 (24%) type IV. The average follow-up was 30 months (range: 24-40 months). According...
متن کاملManagement of Tibial Metaphyseal Fractures by Hybrid External Fixator
Introduction: The Hybrid External Fixator combines the advantages of the monolateral pin fixators and the circular Ilizarov wire fixators. Principle of early motion has been touted as the functional savior of major intra articular injuries in application of hybrid external fixation. Materials & Methodology: 48 patients were considered for the study with tibial fractures admitted in Mamata Gener...
متن کاملPelvic support osteotomy for unstable hips using hybrid external fixator: case series and review of literature.
BACKGROUND Instability of the hip joint is a source of great discomfort to the patient due to pain, limp and leg-length discrepancy. Pelvic support osteotomy with Ilizarov hip reconstruction, along with its various modifications, has emerged as a standard treatment modality for this difficult problem. We present a series of patients with unstable hips treated with a modification of the monolate...
متن کاملThe functional outcome of surgically treated unstable pelvic ring fractures by open reduction, internal fixation
Abstract Background: Unstable Pelvic fracture, a result of high energy antero-posterior compression injury, has been managed based on internal fixation and open reduction. The mode of fixation in Unstable Pelvic fracture has, however, been a subject of controversy and some authors have proposed a need to address the issue of partial breach of the pelvic ring elements in these injuries. This st...
متن کاملThe subcristal pelvic external fixator: technique, results, and rationale.
We report a new technique for pelvic external fixation that we have developed as an alternative to the anterosuperior (Slätis) and the anteroinferior (supra-acetabular) type pelvic external fixator configurations. The method principally differs from the other techniques by virtue of the subcristal positioning of the pins and offers advantages in terms of easier pin placement, less skin irritati...
