Management of Comminuted Tibial Pilon Fractures by Ilizarov External Fixation
Various types of external fixators have been used to treat Ruedi and Allgöwer Type III pilon fractures, as serious complications can occur using conventional treatment principles. However, insufficient reduction and loss of reduction are the two main disadvantages of external fixator treatments. This is a case series involving 15 patients with comminuted closed fractures of the distal tibia (Ru...
متن کاملAcutrak fixation of comminuted distal radial fractures.
The authors describe a new technique of fixation of comminuted displaced distal radial fractures in young adults. A 40-year-old man fell from a ladder and injured his wrist. He sustained a comminuted fracture of the distal radius. The fracture was opened through a volar incision and the three rotated, unreduced fragments were reduced and fixed with three Acutrak (Acumed Inc., Beaverton, OR, USA...
متن کاملLoss of correction in unstable comminuted distal radius fractures with external fixation and bone grafting -a long term followup study
Over the years, management of complex distal radius fractures by closed means has often failed leading to late collapse. We have chosen the principle of ligamentotaxis using external fixation and bone grafting in this study to prevent late complications. Eighty one patients with complex distal radius fractures belonging to Type IV A, IV B, IV C of Universal classification were treated with an A...
متن کاملIndirect reduction and hybrid external fixation in management of comminuted tibial plateau fractures.
The aim of the present study is to assess the results of indirect reduction and hybrid external fixation in management of comminuted tibial plateau fractures. The study included 28 patients with high-energy tibial plateau fractures (Schatzker type V and VI). The ages ranged from 22 to 58 years with an average of 35 years. The trauma was a road traffic accident in 16 cases and a fall from a heig...
متن کاملIlizarov external fixation for severely comminuted supracondylar and intercondylar fractures of the distal femur.
Our aim was to determine the clinical effectiveness and safety of Ilizarov external fixation for the acute treatment of severely comminuted extra-articular and intercondylar fractures of the distal femur. A total of 14 consecutive patients with complex fractures was treated. There were three type-A3, two type-C2 and nine type-C3 fractures according to the AO/ASIF system. The mean follow-up was ...
