Minimally invasive plating osteosynthesis for mid-distal third humeral shaft fractures.
Mid-distal third humeral shaft fractures can be effectively treated with minimally invasive plating osteosynthesis and intramedullary nailing (IMN). However, these 2 treatments have not been adequately compared. Forty-seven patients (47 fractures) with mid-distal third humeral shaft fractures were randomly allocated to undergo either minimally invasive plating osteosynthesis (n=24) or IMN (n=23...
متن کاملPlating of proximal humeral fractures.
The optimal treatment for proximal humeral fractures is controversial. Few data exist concerning the influence of the surgical approach on the outcome. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical and radiological outcomes of proximal humeral fractures treated with locking plate fixation through a deltopectoral vs an anterolateral deltoid-splitting approach. Of 86 patients who met the...
متن کاملComplications of Minimally Invasive Percutaneous Plating for Distal Tibial Fractures
BACKGROUND The management of distal tibia fractures continues to remain a source of controversy and debate. OBJECTIVES The aim of this study was to evaluate the various complications of minimally invasive percutaneous plate osteosynthesis (MIPPO) using a locking plate for closed fractures of distal tibia in a retrospective study. PATIENTS AND METHODS Twenty-five patients with distal tibial ...
متن کاملCompression plating versus intramedullary nailing of humeral shaft fractures--a meta-analysis.
BACKGROUND The choice of plates or intramedullary nails for operatively treated humeral shaft fractures remains controversial, since randomized controlled trials have lacked sufficient power. A meta-analysis of existing trials would improve inferences regarding the treatment effect. METHODS We reviewed randomized trials in Medline, Cochrane and SciSearch, along with other sources of published...
متن کاملOperative treatment of humeral shaft fractures. Comparison of plating and intramedullary nailing.
Plate and screw fixation (PSF) has always been the more common surgical treatment of humeral shaft fractures. However, intramedullary nailing (IMN) of the humerus has gained in popularity over the last two decades. The purpose of this retrospective study was to evaluate the clinical outcome of plate fixation versus intramedullary nailing of midshaft humeral fractures. The study included 91 pati...
