Intramedullary osteosynthesis in the treatment of lower extremity fractures.
AO Principles are described today as follows: * appropriate reduction * appropriate stabilization * preservation of vascularity * painless early mobilization These requirements can all be met by intramedullary osteosynthesis for suitable indications. The modern generation of nails is highly user-friendly and application of the systems is very safe. Outcome predictions favor reamed locked nailin...
متن کاملLocked intramedullary nailing of femoral shaft fractures.
One hundred twenty-three femoral shaft fractures were treated with Grosse-Kempf slotted, locked nails and followed for a median 20 (range, 12-60) months. There were eight intraoperative and 11 postoperative complications, among them two superficial and two deep infections. Most of the intraoperative complications and some postoperatively lost reductions could have been prevented by a better ope...
متن کاملLocked intramedullary nailing of open tibial fractures.
We report the use of Grosse-Kempf reamed intramedullary nailing in the treatment of 41 Gustilo type II and III open tibial fractures. The union times and infection rates were similar to those previously reported for similar fractures treated by external skeletal fixation, but the incidence of malunion was less and fewer required bone grafting. The role of exchange nailing is discussed and a tre...
متن کاملIntramedullary nailing of proximal tibial fractures
can be difficult when using the standard entry portal. We evaluated the suprapatellar portal, using a midline quadriceps tendon incision, to perform intramedullary nailing of the tibia. Seven patients were treated with this adaptation of the standard intramedullary nailing procedure. An arthroscopy was done before and after the nailing procedure. No special equipment was used to perform the int...
متن کاملIntramedullary nailing of pediatric femoral fractures.
This retrospective study reviews our results with intramedullary nail fixation of 37 fractures of the femur in 35 skeletally immature patients. Five of these fractures were open. Twenty-two patients (average age 12 + 9 years) were treated with reamed intramedullary nails. Fifteen patients (average age 9 + 6 years) were treated with nonreamed nails. All fractures united in 6-12 weeks. There were...
