The closed reduction of trochanteric fractures.
Closed reduction and internal fixation of trochanteric fractures is one of the commonest procedures in orthopaedic practice. With intracapsular fractures, internal rotation is the position of choice but in the trochanteric region this may cause malunion and impair walking. Evans (1951) suggested that some comminuted trochanteric fractures were best reduced by external rotation and Horn and Wang...
متن کاملAugmentation of proximal femoral nail in unstable trochanteric fractures
INTRODUCTION Biomechanically proximal femoral nail (PFN) is a better choice of implant, still it is associated with screw breakage, cut out of screw through femoral head, Z effect, reverse Z effect, and lateral migration of screws. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the results of augmented PFN in terms of prevention of postoperative complications and failure rates in unstable trochanteri...
متن کاملEvaluation of cephalomedullary implant fixation in unstable trochanteric fractures
Introduction: Hip fractures continue to be a major cause of mortality and disability among the elderly. Methods: The study includes 32 patients with closed unstable intertrochanteric fracture classified as AO 31A2 &31A3, over a period of 30 months between may 2008 to November 2011. Inclusion Criteria-All mature skeleton above 50 years of age .Closed Unstable Trochanteric Fracture Classified as ...
متن کاملDisplacements of trochanteric fractures and their influence on reduction.
The management of trochanteric fractures of the femur presents fewer problems than that of transcervical fractures. Union is often well advanced at twelve to fourteen weeks, by which time most patients are permitted to bear weight through the injured hip; the functional end-result is generally good, providing there is reasonable anatomical alignment of the fragments. Most surgeons use internal ...
متن کاملThe functional outcome of surgically treated unstable pelvic ring fractures by open reduction, internal fixation
Abstract Background: Unstable Pelvic fracture, a result of high energy antero-posterior compression injury, has been managed based on internal fixation and open reduction. The mode of fixation in Unstable Pelvic fracture has, however, been a subject of controversy and some authors have proposed a need to address the issue of partial breach of the pelvic ring elements in these injuries. This st...
