Removal of a broken intramedullary femoral nail with an unusual pattern of breakage: a case report
To the best of our knowledge, only 3 cases, including the present case, have been reported with a three part broken pattern. However, this is the first case associated with a distal locking screw broken. We report the case of a 31-year-old patient who sustained an open femoral shaft fracture . The fracture was stabilized with a Kuntcher femoral nail. After 7 months of the initial surgery he pre...
متن کاملSurgical options for broken intramedullary nail.
To the Editor: We would like to compliment Levine et al on their case report “Removal of a Broken Cannulated Tibial Nail: A Simple Intramedullary Technique” (J Orthop Trauma 2004;18:247– 249) and Steinberg et al on their technical trick “Removal of a Broken Distal Closed Section Intramedullary Nail: Report of a Case Using a Simple Method” (J Orthop Trauma 2004;18:233–235). The problem of a brok...
متن کاملFemoral lengthening with a motorized intramedullary nail
PURPOSE We assessed whether an intramedullary lengthening device would reduce the problems normally associated with the external fixation technique. We also wanted to determine whether it is a reliable construct for limb lengthening and deformity correction in the femur. PATIENTS AND METHODS We conducted a matched-pair comparison of 30 femoral lengthenings, 15 with a motorized intramedullary ...
متن کاملThe intramedullary elongation nail for femoral lengthening.
We have analysed the results of 24 femoral lengthenings in 23 patients operated on between 1993 and 2000, using a gradual elongation intramedullary nail (Albizzia). Of the 23 patients, 22 had femoral deficiency and one was of short stature. Their mean age was 16.9 years. Technical difficulties encountered during the procedure were mild or moderate in 18 femora and severe in six femora. Distract...
متن کاملA novel way to remove a broken intramedullary nail
BACKGROUND Removal of broken intramedullary nails can prove challenging and several techniques have been suggested to achieve retrieval.1 The increasing use of retrograde nails for calcaneotalotibial arthrodesis has a particular problem: the cannulation is often too narrow to allow passage of hooks or other commonly used extraction devices.2 We propose a method using equipment that is readily a...
