Proximal Femoral Nailing in Trochanteric Fractures
Trochanteric fractures, one of the commonest fractures treated by an orthopedic surgeon, typically occur in an elderly population with osteoporotic bones, mostly as a result of low velocity injury. The main stay of treatment for these fractures is fixation with screw–side plate device or intramedullary device. Recently, intra-medullary device is gaining popularity due to their distinct biomecha...
متن کاملType II Intertrochanteric Fractures: Proximal Femoral Nailing (PFN) Versus Dynamic Hip Screw(DHS)
Background: Intertrochanteric fracture is one of the most common fractures of the hip especially in the elderly with osteoporotic bones, usually due to low-energy trauma like simple falls. Dynamic Hip Screw (DHS) is still considered the gold standard for treating intertrochanteric fractures by many. Not many studies compare the DHS with Proximal femoral nail (PFN), in Type II intertrochanteri...
متن کاملProximal Femoral Nailing: Technical Difficulties and Results in Trochanteric Fractures
Background: Proximal femoral nailing in communited intertrochanteric fractures is increasingly becoming popular in view of superior biomechanics and prevention of varus collapse associated with Dynamic hip screw. However, technical difficulties and implant related complications have been described with this technique, thus we need more studies to address these issues. Our study aims to understa...
متن کاملTorsional Deformity after Intramedullary Nailing of Femoral Shaff Fractures
The torsion of both femora was evaluated in 110 patients who had been treated by intramedullary nailing for unilateral femoral shaft fractures. The anteversion (AV) angle was measured by ultrasound, using a tilted-transducer technique. True torsional deformity, defined as an AV difference of 15#{176} or more between sides was found in 21 patients, but only eight had complaints related to the de...
متن کاملProlonged coma after unreamed, locked nailing of femoral shaft fracture.
USING transesophageal echocardiography, echogenic material can be shown in the right ventricle during many orthopedic procedures. Recently, transcranial Doppler–recorded microembolic signals have been described during femoral fracture fixation, suggesting that medullary pressurization may be associated with systemic microembolism and pulmonary fat and marrow emboli. Although reamed, locked intr...
