Expandable intramedullary nails for fixation of tibial shaft fractures.
Interlocking intramedullary nailing is currently the preferred treatment for most tibial fractures requiring operative treatment, with good results and a relatively low complication rate as reported in large clinical series. However, vascular and neurological complications caused by interlocking screws have been reported. In addition, insertion of distal interlocking screws can be technically d...
متن کاملMeta-analysis of plate fixation versus intramedullary fixation for the treatment of mid-shaft clavicle fractures
BACKGROUND This systematic review and meta-analysis aims to critically compare the outcomes of plate fixation (PF) versus intramedullary fixation (IF) for the treatment of mid-shaft clavicle fractures. METHODS Relevant original studies were searched in electronic databases of Medline, Embase, Cochrane central database and CNKI (all through October 2014). The study was performed according to t...
متن کاملIntramedullary fixation versus plate fixation for displaced mid-shaft clavicle fractures
BACKGROUND Displaced mid-shaft clavicle fractures (DMCFs) are common injuries. Both intramedullary fixation (IMF) and plate fixation (PF) have been described and routinely used. Multiple trials have been conducted to compare these treatments. Multiple meta-analyses have been published to compare IMF and PF treatment for DMCFs; however, the results remain controversial. The purposes of this stud...
متن کاملStudy of Titanium Elastic Nailing for Fracture Shaft Femur in Children between 3 to 13 Years of Age
Treatment of Displaced diaphyseal femoral shaft fracture in children between 3 to 13 years is controversial. Various methods are available for treatment. Titanium elastic nailing is one of the methods for treatment of femur shaft fracture in children. In our study we have assessed the outcome of titanium elastic nailing for fracture shaft femur in children. We have found that titanium elastic n...
متن کاملFlexible intramedullary nails: the panacea for paediatric femoral shaft fractures
Not many years ago the use of traction and application of hip spica cast were standard treatments for all femoral shaft fractures in children. 2 However, the management of femoral shaft fractures in children above the age of five years has tilted more towards an operative option in the last two decades attributed to low incidence of malunion, short hospital stays, cost effectiveness and early a...
