Nail-plate fixation for trochanteric fractures.
Case 2-Woman aged thirty-three. Sanatorium treatment for pulmonary tuberculosis in 1944, with thoracoplasty five years later. Onset of ankylosing spondylitis in 1953, with marked rigid cervical kyphosis. The vital capacity was only 880 cubic centimetres. The deformity was so severe that atlanto-axial dislocation seemed imminent. Operation was undertaken at C.3-4 level with correction as shown (...
متن کاملInnovative use of Proximal Humeral Interlocking System (PHILOS) plate for fixation of osteoporotic fibula fracture
Wounds come in many shapes and sizes often requiring washout and exploration. The limb is prepared and draped in the desired fashion. A large sterile x-ray C-arm cover is placed under the limb and secured proximally with a towel clip. A suction tube is placed in the lowest part. This tube can be cut and dropped into the bag when washout is completed and the bag removed, allowing further procedu...
متن کاملPosterior versus Lateral Plate Fixation of Short Oblique Fractures of the Distal Fibula: A Literature Review
Background: Oblique spiral fractures of the distal third of the fibula are commonly encountered in any orthopedic practice. Controversy persists over various fixation methods and their corresponding risks and benefits. Methods: A systematic review of the pertinent literature pertaining to these fractures was performed, and currently published results were summarized. Results: There are advantag...
متن کاملA biomechanical study of conventional acetabular internal fracture fixation versus locking plate fixation.
BACKGROUND Conventional internal fixation entails the use of an interfragmentary lag screw along with a plate. Not all acetabular fractures are amenable to the placement of an interfragmentary lag screw, and the fracture may be displaced during tightening of the interfragmentary lag screw. Locking plates are a possible solution. We sought to determine whether a locking plate construct can provi...
متن کاملIpsilateral Femoral Fracture Non-Union and Delayed Union Treated By Hybrid Plate Nail Fixation and Vascularized Fibula Bone Grafting: A Case Report
UNLABELLED Non-union is a well recognized complication of femoral neck fractures. The decision whether to attempt fracture fixation or to resort to hip replacement is particularly difficult in patients in the borderline age group in whom complex attempts at gaining union may fail and later present a difficult revision. On the other hand the patient may be young enough that arthroplasty best be ...
