PHILOS humerus plate for a distal tibial fracture
This report discusses the use of an alternative implant in the emergency fixation of a distal tibial fracture. We planned to fix the shear-type medial malleolar fracture in a closed, tri-malleolar fracture with a locking distal tibial plate. Intra-operatively, it was noted that the required plate was unavailable. A PHILOS humeral plate seemed to fit the contours of the distal tibia. The broad e...
متن کاملUse of locking plate in combination with dynamic compression plate for repair of tibial fracture in a young horse
Grade 1 open spiral fracture of left tibia in a 1.5 year-old horse was treated using a combination of 4.5 mm locking compression plate (LCP) and a dynamic compression plate applied in a neutralization manner. The open wound was managed postoperatively by regular dressing and lavage. Radiograph at 24 days post-treatment revealed callus formation and at two months complete bridging callus was obs...
متن کاملDistal tibial fracture: An ideal indication for external fixation using locking plate
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the feasibility and efficiency of one-stage external fixation by using locking plate in distal tibial fractures. METHODS In this non-control prospective study, 28 patients with distal tibial fractures were included and underwent one-stage external fixation by using locking plate. There were 21 males and 7 females, with a mean age of 43 years (19-63). According to AO/OTA ...
متن کاملTreatment of closed two-part triplane fracture of distal tibial segment using a posterior antiglide plate
Objective: The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical and radiological outcomes of the management of triplane fractures of the distal tibial segment by using the posterior antiglide plate. Methods: Fourteen patients (9 male, 5 female; average age 14.2 years; range 12-17 years) who had closed two-part triplane fractures were enrolled. In all cases, the distal metaphyseal fracture of ...
متن کاملPHILOS Plate: Is it the Panacea for all Proximal Humerus Fractures?
Proximal humerus fractures are common and have a bimodal age distribution. Fracture-dislocations in younger patients result from highenergy trauma and most surgeons attempt open reduction and internal fixation, if at all possible. Osteoporotic fractures in elderly patients are commonly associated with low-energy trauma such as groundlevel falls and most are minimally displaced, impacted fractur...
