Closed unlocked nailing for comminuted femoral fractures.
Fifty consecutive comminuted fractures of the femoral shaft were treated by closed unlocked intramedullary nailing. Twelve unstable fractures also had cast-bracing. There were no cases of infection or non-union, and satisfactory results were achieved in 38 fractures (76%). More severe comminution led to a higher incidence of unsatisfactory results, but malrotation deformity was seen more often ...
متن کاملClosed Femoral Shaft Fracture Associated With Superficial Femoral Artery Thrombosis in a Child
Femur fractures are common in paediatric population and femoral shaft fractures have an incidense of 1.4-1.7% of all paediatric fractures. These are often seen in boys rather than girls. Most of the fractures are transverse, non-comminuted and closed [1]. The mechanism of the femoral shaft fracture for older children is associated with high-energy transmission such as traffic accidents. Combine...
متن کاملClosed Küntscher nailing for comminuted femoral shaft fractures.
From a series of 190 consecutive fractures of the shaft of the femur treated by closed Küntscher nailing, 32 of the more severely comminuted have been studied to determine whether treatment by closed nailing was justified. Radiological criteria were used to divide them into 19 who were moderately comminuted and 13 grossly so. Twenty-four patients were less than 21 years of age and 19 patients h...
متن کاملFemoral neck fracture during closed medullary nailing: brief report.
Closed intramedullary nailing of the femur is a complex technique but one that has considerable advantages. The choice of an appropriate point of entry into the proximal femur during introduction is vital, since an oblique insertion of the nail may lead to impaction of the implant and comminution of the proximal femoral fragment (Winquist, Hansen and Clawson 1984); this is particularly so in sm...
متن کاملbed-assisted closed reduction intramedullary nailing for femoral shaft fracture
Objective: To compare treatment of femoral shaft fractures using traction bed assisted closed reduction (CR) or conventional open reduction (OR) for intramedullary nail fixation. Methods: The study group consisted of 126 patients with femoral shaft fractures who were treated via intramedullary nail fixation from July 2009 to May 2013. Traction bed assisted CR was adopted in 71 patients, while O...
