Outcome of intramedullary interlocking SIGN nail in tibial diaphyseal fracture.
OBJECTIVE To determine the outcome of intramedullary interlocking surgical implant generation network (SIGN) nail in diaphyseal tibial fractures in terms of union and failure of implant (breakage of nail or interlocking screws). STUDY DESIGN Case series. PLACE AND DURATION OF STUDY Orthopaedics and Spinal Surgery, Ghurki Trust Teaching Hospital, Lahore Medical and Dental College, Lahore, fr...
متن کاملFatigue behavior of Ilizarov frame versus tibial interlocking nail in a comminuted tibial fracture model: a biomechanical study
BACKGROUND Treatment options for comminuted tibial shaft fractures include plating, intramedullary nailing, and external fixation. No biomechanical comparison between an interlocking tibia nail with external fixation by an Ilizarov frame has been reported to date. In the present study, we compared the fatigue behaviour of Ilizarov frames to interlocking intramedullary nails in a comminuted tibi...
متن کاملThe effect of screw thread length on initial stability of Schatzker type 1 tibial plateau fracture fixation: a biomechanical study
BACKGROUND This study compares the cyclic loading properties and failure loads of two screw combinations on a synthetic Schatzker type 1 tibia fracture model. Our hypothesis was that after adequate compression with first a partially threaded screw, addition of a fully threaded screw would provide more stability than an addition of a second partially threaded screw. METHODS The Schatzker type ...
متن کاملComparison of Results of Conservative and Operative (Interlocking Nail) Treatment of Closed Isolated Diaphyseal Tibial Fracture in Adult
The aim of this prospective study is to compare the result of treatment in two groups , one group closed intramedullary nailing after reaming with the other group closed reduction followed by plaster casting in the patient having isolated closed diaphyseal tibial fracture in adult. Materials & Methods: All patients with an isolated closed unilateral fracture of the tibial diaphysis, , were eval...
متن کاملThe Effect of Two Distal Interlocking Screw Configuration and Orientation on Intramedullary Nail Stability: A Biomechanical Study
INTRODUCTION: Long bone diaphyseal fractures are a very common injury encountered in orthopedic practice. This type of fracture is often treated using an intramedullary (IM) nail. In this day and age there are many options in regards to the orientation of the distal interlocking screws. The goal of this study was to determine if the distance between two distal locking screws affects the stabili...
