Primary unreamed and unlocked intramedullary nailing of femoral shaft fractures.
ABSTRACT In this retrospective study, we present our experience using open Küntscher nailing (K-nailing) which is still performed in developing countries for femoral fractures. Of 157 acute fractures treated between January 2003 and December 2009, 100 were stable (63.7%) and 135 were located within the middle third of the shaft (86%). Comminution was absent or minimal in 135 (86%) cases. Fractu...
متن کاملComplications and Functional Recovery in Treatment of Femoral Shaft Fractures with Unreamed Intramedullary Nailing
INTRODUCTION Fracture of the femoral shaft is a common fracture encountered in orthopedic practice. In the 1939, Küntscher introduced the concept of intramedullary nailing for stabilization of long bone fractures. Intramedullary nailing has revolutionized the treatment of fractures. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study included 37 male patients and 13 female patients, averaged 39 +/- 20.5 years (ra...
متن کاملReamed versus unreamed intramedullary nailing for the treatment of femoral fractures
BACKGROUND AND OBJECTIVE Intramedullary nailing is commonly used for treating femoral shaft fractures, one of the most common long bone fractures in adults. The reamed intramedullary nail is considered the standard implant for femoral fractures. This meta-analysis was performed to verify the superiority of reamed intramedullary nailing over unreamed intramedullary nailing in fractures of the fe...
متن کاملPrimary Unreamed And Unlocked Intramedullary Nailing For Open Tibial Fractures
Results: There were 124 men and 25 women with a mean age of 35 (16 to 72) years. Fractures were caused in the majority of cases (130 cases, 87.2%) by traffic accidents. Fractures were classified according to Cauchoix system into 96 grade I, 55 grade II, and 3 grade III. The duration of follow-up averaged nine (3 to 25) months. Infections (softtissue and bone) were encountered in 30 (19.5%) frac...
متن کاملThe incidence of non-union following unreamed intramedullary nailing of femoral shaft fractures.
INTRODUCTION Stabilisation of fractures with an intramedullary nail is a widespread technique in the treatment of femoral shaft fractures in adults. To ream or not to ream is still debated. The primary objective of this study was to determine the incidence of non-union following unreamed intramedullary stabilisation of femoral fractures. Secondary objectives were intra- and postoperative compli...
