The Role of Biplanar Distal Locking in Intramedullary Nailing of Tibial Shaft Fractures
Background: To compare the union times of the uncomplicated tibial shaft fractures, which were distally locked by twocoronal and one sagittal screws and by only two coronal screws.Methods: 45 patients with tibial shaft treated with intramedullary nailing included in this study. 23 of 45 fractureswere treated with uniplanar two distal interlocking (Group 1) and 22 fractures were treated with bip...

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 کاملClosed intramedullary nailing of tibial fractures in sportsmen.
The serious nature of these injuries make it essential that Governing Bodies publicise the risks involved in their particular sport and encourage the development of more effective forms of protection. The individuals can then make their own decisions. It may be wise for the Governing Body to circularise members of their own Association and all professional players (who are the trend setters) re...
متن کاملOpen tibial shaft fractures. Treatment with intramedullary nailing after provisional stabilization with non penetrating external fixator
Objective: To evaluate the incidence of union, nonunion, deep infection and factors influencing the time of bone healing in the treatment of open tibial shaft fractures Gustilo and Anderson types I and II initially treated with a non penetrating external fixator (Pinless®) followed by an unreamed intramedullary locked nail (UTN®). Methods: It is a prospective study of 39 open tibial shaft fract...
