Scaphoid Fractures: A Comparison of Two Surgical Methods for Internal Fixation Using Either Herbert Screws or Multiple Pins
Background and Aims: Scaphoid fractures are the most common fractures of the wrist. This study compared the outcomes of two surgical internal fixation techniques, using either Herbert screws (HS group) or multiple pins (MP group), in the treatment of scaphoid fractures. Methods: This cross-sectional study was performed on 41 patients (23 in HS and 18 in MP groups) with unilateral scaphoid fract...
متن کاملClinical Results of Percutaneous Fixation of Pelvic and Acetabular Fractures: A Minimally Invasive Internal Fixation Technique
Background: The pelvic ring fractures (PRF) and acetabular fractures (AF) are among the major orthopedic injuriesassociated with high rates of morbidity and mortality. Open surgical stabilization is the standard treatment for themajority of these complications. Percutaneous minimally invasive surgical stabilization of the fractures has become anaccepted treatment method for th...
متن کاملInternal fixation of femoral neck fractures. Two methods compared.
In a prospective randomised study, the Hansson pin technique for internal fixation of fractures of the femoral neck was compared with the Uppsala screw technique. The series consisted of 115 consecutive patients, 97 women and 18 men, with a mean age of 80 years. There were 56 patients treated with Hansson pins and 59 with Uppsala screws. After one year 22 patients had died, eight in the Hansson...
متن کاملInnovative internal fixation for cervical spine fractures.
The increase in the number of available internal fixation devices for the cervical spine has promoted innovative stabilization of traumatic instability of the craniocervical junction. Traumatic injuries involving the craniocervical junction vary widely because of the complex osseous and ligamentous anatomy. These injuries can be purely ligamentous, such as occipitocervical dislocation, or can i...
متن کاملInternal Fixation of Radial Head Fractures with an Intramedullary Nail
Comminuted fractures of the radial head still present signi ̄cant technical and surgical challenges. In this article, we describe a novel ̄xation of comminuted radial head fractures with the help of an intramedullary nail. Experiments with solid, conventionally machined intramedullary nails showed some major drawbacks in the ̄xation of radial head fractures. Several design and manufacturing proc...
