The Prophylactic Effect of Methyl Prednisolone Sodium Succinate against Fat Embolism in Long Bones Fractures
In this prospective study the effect of low dose methylprednisolone succinate (10mg/kg) on the incidence of fat embolism syndrome and isolated arterial hypoxemia in 99 patients with long bone fracture (52 control and 47 steroid-trated subjects) was studied. Frequency of fractures among the selected patients was as follows: femoral fracture 52.5%, tibial fracture 36.4%, both femoral and tibial f...
متن کاملAutologous bone graft versus demineralized bone matrix in internal fixation of ununited long bones
BACKGROUND Non-unions are severe complications in orthopaedic trauma care and occur in 10% of all fractures. The golden standard for the treatment of ununited fractures includes open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) as well as augmentation with autologous-bone-grafting. However, there is morbidity associated with the bone-graft donor site and some patients offer limited quantity or qualit...
متن کاملX. Wound and Fracture tai ng Stress Analysis of Internal Fracture Fixation of Long Bones
Progress Using mathematical models, we are investigating the influence of plate fixation on the internal stresses in long bones subjected to all known in vivo loading modes . The variables we are studying include : plate geometry, plate/bone fixity, and screw tightness. The mathematical models are based upon the finite element technique . The models will be subjected to all physiological loadin...
متن کاملFunctional Outcome of Internal Fixation of Radial and Ulna Fracture
Background: Displaced fractures of radius and ulna bones in adults are usually treated with open reduction and internal fixation. The purpose of this research was to access functional outcome of these fractures. Materials and Methods: In this research 52 Patients who underwent ORIF with DCP 3.5 in past 5 years were investigated. Post-operation protocol was one week immobilization and then acti...
متن کاملProphylactic Fixation of Impending Fractures
Pathologic fractures occur as a result of weakening of the mechanical properties of bone. There are many conditions, which lead to bone softening. There are neoplastic and non-neoplastic diseases that cause pathologic fractures. The aim is to evaluate and to highlight on value of prophylactic fixation of impending fractures in abnormal bone situation to prevent occurrence of pathological fractu...
