A meta-analysis of reamed versus unreamed intramedullary nailing for the treatment of closed tibial fractures.
Controversy exists regarding the clinical outcomes of reamed vs unreamed intramedullary nailing in the treatment of closed tibial fractures. This study assessed the effects of reamed vs unreamed intramedullary nailing for closed tibial fractures. The authors searched PubMed, EMBASE, BIOSIS, and the Cochrane Controlled Trials Register for randomized and quasi-randomized controlled clinical trial...
متن کاملReamed versus nonreamed intramedullary nailing of lower extremity long bone fractures: a systematic overview and meta-analysis.
OBJECTIVE To determine the effect of reamed versus nonreamed intramedullary (IM) nailing of lower extremity long bone fractures on the rates of nonunion, implant failure, malunion, compartment syndrome, pulmonary embolus, and infection. DESIGN Quantitative systematic review of prospective, randomized controlled trials. DATA IDENTIFICATION MEDLINE and SCISEARCH computer searches provided lis...
متن کاملRandomized trial of reamed and unreamed intramedullary nailing of tibial shaft fractures.
BACKGROUND There remains a compelling biological rationale for both reamed and unreamed intramedullary nailing for the treatment of tibial shaft fractures. Previous small trials have left the evidence for either approach inconclusive. We compared reamed and unreamed intramedullary nailing with regard to the rates of reoperations and complications in patients with tibial shaft fractures. METHO...
متن کاملRandomized Trial of Reamed and Unreamed Intramedullary Nailing of Tibial Shaft Fractures
Methods: We conducted a multicenter, blinded randomized trial of 1319 adults in whom a tibial shaft fracture was treated with either reamed or unreamed intramedullary nailing. Perioperative care was standardized, and reoperations for nonunion before six months were disallowed. The primary composite outcome measured at twelve months postoperatively included bone-grafting, implant exchange, and d...
متن کاملMeta-analysis of reamed versus unreamed intramedullary nailing for open tibial fractures
BACKGROUND Open fractures of the tibial diaphysis are usually caused by high-energy trauma and associated with severe bone and soft tissue injury. Reamed and unreamed intramedullary nailing are often used for treatment of tibial injury. The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical efficacy of reamed versus unreamed intramedullary nailing for open tibial fractures (OTF). METHODS A...
