Exchange nailing of ununited fractures.
Exchange nailing is most appropriate for a nonunion without substantial bone loss. There is no clear consensus regarding the use of exchange nailing in the presence of active, purulent infection. The exchange nail should be at least 1 mm larger in diameter than the nail being removed, and it has been recommended that it be up to 4 mm larger when the nail being removed was greatly undersized. Ca...
متن کاملDelayed Reduction of Nasal Bone Fractures
BACKGROUND Nasal bone fractures are managed by closed reduction within the 2-week period, and are managed by secondary correction after this time. There is little literature on the delayed reduction for nasal bone fractures beyond the 2-week duration. We report our experience with nasal fractures, which were reduced beyond this period. METHODS A retrospective review was performed for all pati...
متن کاملTreatment of ununited fractures of the scaphoid by iliac bone grafts and Kirschner-wire fixation.

متن کاملOn the Treatment of Ununited Fractures, with Especial Reference to the Use of Bone Grafts
Introductory.?The delayed union of fractures or their actual non-union is a comparatively rare occurrence in civil practice, but the treatment of such conditions is a matter of very great importance, because it involves the restoration of a limb to usefulness instead of leaving it a crippled encumbrance. Recent military experience has afforded a great field for the study of these questions, and...
متن کاملInternal fixation of ununited femoral neck fractures combined with muscle-pedicle bone grafting.
Fifty-six patients with ununited intracapsular fractures of the femoral neck were treated by internal fixation and muscle-pedicle bone grafting. All had some absorption of the femoral neck, and many had avascular necrosis of the femoral head. At operation the sclerosed surfaces of the fractures were freshened, the avascular femoral head was decompressed and the muscle-pedicle graft was fixed wi...
