Percutaneous tension band wiring for patellar fractures.
PURPOSE To evaluate outcome of percutaneous tension band wiring for transverse fractures of the patella. METHODS 16 men and 7 women aged 27 to 65 (mean, 40) years underwent percutaneous tension band wiring for transverse fractures of the patella with a displacement of >3 mm. Pain, operating time, mobility, functional score, and complications were evaluated. RESULTS 20 patients underwent suc...
متن کاملA Prospective Randomised Control Trial for Comparison Between olecranon Lock Plate And Tension Band Wiring In Transverse olecranon Fractures
Introduction: Olecranon fractures are frequently encountered in the practice of orthopaedic surgery with a prevalence of 60% among patients with a fracture of the proximal ulna. Generally the treatment of choice for displaced olecranon fracture is open reduction and internal fixation. We report the result of a prospective Randomised Control Trial of Forty patients, who were treated either by Te...
متن کاملOperative treatment of communited olecranon fractures using tension-band wiring and miniplate augmentation.
Olecranon fractures are intra-articular injuries that require anatomic restoration of the articular surface. For most simple noncomminuted transverse olecranon fractures, tension band wire fixation can provide a stable construct to allow for early joint range of motion. However, in comminuted olecranon fractures, it is difficult to provide a sufficient buttress for impacted articular fragments ...
متن کاملTechnique Using Isoelastic Tension Band for Treatment of Olecranon Fractures.
The isoelastic ultrahigh-molecular-weight polyethylene tension band may be considered an alternative to stainless steel wire for tension band fixation of olecranon fractures. In this article, we present our technique using this isoelastic tension band and describe the outcomes of 7 patients who underwent open reduction and internal fixation of closed, displaced olecranon fractures with minimal ...
متن کاملIs tension band wiring technique the "gold standard" for the treatment of olecranon fractures? A long term functional outcome study
BACKGROUND Tension band wiring (TBW) remains the most common operative technique for the internal fixation of olecranon fractures despite the potential occurrence of subjective complaints due to subcutaneous position of the hardware. Aim of this long term retrospective study was to evaluate the elbow function and the patient-rated outcome after TBW fixation of olecranon fractures. METHODS We ...
