Herbert screw fixation of scaphoid fractures.
We reviewed the records of 431 patients who had open reduction and internal fixation of the scaphoid performed by one surgeon (TJH) over a 13-year period. The Herbert bone screw provided adequate internal fixation without the use of plaster immobilisation, promoting a rapid functional recovery. On average, patients returned to work 4.7 weeks after surgery and wrist function was significantly im...
متن کاملPercutaneous Screw Fixation for Scaphoid Fractures.
Treatment of nondisplaced scaphoid waist fractures has evolved from conventional cast immobilization to percutaneous screw insertion. This study assessed clinical and radiologic outcomes of volar percutaneous screw fixation for 15 type B2 scaphoid fractures (according to the Herbert and Fisher classification). All patients were followed for an average of 33 months (range, 6-50 months). All frac...
متن کاملHerbert screw fixation by limited access for acute fractures of the scaphoid.
We describe a semi-closed method of Herbert screw fixation for acute fractures of the scaphoid. All 40 patients treated achieved solid union with satisfactory wrist function. This technique gave a significantly shorter time to union and allowed an earlier return to manual labour compared with conservative treatment. There were no complications. Semi-closed insertion requires considerable skill,...
متن کاملPercutaneous screw fixation for fractures of the scaphoid.
We describe a percutaneous technique for screw fixation of all types of fractures of the scaphoid. During a 15-year period ending in 1984, 280 cases were treated by this method; 198 of them returned for evaluation in 1986 and comprise the material for this report. After a mean postoperative time of 82 months, 89% of the recent fractures had united as well as 81.8% of those with delayed or nonun...
متن کاملThe Herbert screw for fractures of the scaphoid.
We have reviewed 22 patients with scaphoid fractures treated by internal fixation with the Herbert screw. Three patients had trans-scaphoid perilunar dislocations, one had an oblique displaced fracture of the waist of the scaphoid and 18 had fractures with delayed or non-union. Corticocancellous bone grafts were added in nine of the cases of non-union. Results were excellent or good in 80% of c...
