Percutaneous screw fixation without bone grafting of scaphoid non-union.
BACKGROUND Delays in diagnosis and inadequate treatment of acute scaphoid fractures can lead to non-unions, presenting surgeons with unique challenges regarding optimal management. OBJECTIVES To evaluate the clinical and radiographic outcome of scaphoid non-unions treated with percutaneous screw fixation. METHODS The study group comprised 12 patients with scaphoid non-unions of an average d...
متن کاملPercutaneous screw fixation without bone grafting for established scaphoid nonunion with substantial bone loss.
Ununited fractures of the scaphoid with extensive bone resorption are usually treated by bone grafting and internal fixation, using either an open or a minimally invasive technique. We studied the feasibility of percutaneous fixation without bone grafting in a consecutive series of 27 patients with established nonunion of an undisplaced fracture of the scaphoid and extensive local resorption of...
متن کاملPercutaneous Screw Fixation for Scaphoid Fractures.
Treatment of nondisplaced scaphoid waist fractures has evolved from conventional cast immobilization to percutaneous screw insertion. This study assessed clinical and radiologic outcomes of volar percutaneous screw fixation for 15 type B2 scaphoid fractures (according to the Herbert and Fisher classification). All patients were followed for an average of 33 months (range, 6-50 months). All frac...
متن کاملScaphoid Fracture Fixation with an Acutrak® Screw
We report a case of fixation of a scaphoid fracture using an Acutrak(®) screw. This screw is cannulated and headless, which allows it to be implanted below the surface of the bone. It uses the same concept of variable thread pitch as the Herbert screw, but unlike the Herbert screw, is fully threaded, with continuously varying pitch along its length. This variable pitch creates constant compress...
متن کاملAnterior endoscopically assisted bone grafting for iatrogenic distraction of odontoid fracture after percutaneous anterior screw fixation
RATIONALE The complication of iatrogenic distraction of odontoid fracture after anterior screw fixation has not been reported in the literature. We treated the patient with endoscopically assisted bone grafting with good results. The new technique was not reported in the management of odontoid fracture or nonunion before. PATIENT CONCERNS A 22-year-old man presented with neck pain after a mot...
