Pediatric Diaphyseal Femur Fractures: Submuscular Plating Compared With Intramedullary Nailing.
This study compared the radiographic and clinical outcomes of pediatric diaphyseal femur fractures treated by submuscular plating, flexible retrograde intramedullary nailing, or rigid antegrade intramedullary nailing with a trochanteric entry point in skeletally immature patients who were 8 years and older. A retrospective review was conducted of skeletally immature patients 8 years and older w...
متن کاملReamed interlocking intramedullary nailing for the treatment of tibial diaphyseal fractures and aseptic nonunions. Can we expect an optimum result?
The need for reaming and the number of locking screws to be used in intramedullary (IM) tibial nailing of acute fractures as well as routine bone grafting of tibial aseptic nonunions have not been clearly defined. We describe the results of reamed interlocked IM nails in 233 patients with 247 tibial fractures (190 closed, 27 open and 30 nonunions). Ninety-six percent of the fractures were unite...
متن کاملUse of reamed locked intramedullary nailing in the treatment of aseptic diaphyseal tibial non-union.
BACKGROUND Tibial fractures have been associated with the highest rates of bone union disturbances for many years. Stabilization of the tibial shaft with a reamed intramedullary nail is now being increasingly recommended as a treatment of choice. The aim of this study was to evaluate the outcomes of treatment of tibial shaft non-union with reamed intramedullary nails locked distally and proxima...
متن کاملIntramedullary nailing supplemented with Poller screws for proximal tibial fractures.
PURPOSE To evaluate outcome of intramedullary nailing supplemented with Poller screws for proximal tibial fractures using small diameter nails. METHODS 50 men and 20 women (75 fractures) aged 18 to 65 (mean, 33) years underwent intramedullary nailing supplemented with Poller screws for acutely displaced fractures (n=60) or for delayed union (n=10) or mal-union (n=5) of the proximal metadiaphy...
متن کاملLocked intramedullary nailing of open tibial fractures.
We report the use of Grosse-Kempf reamed intramedullary nailing in the treatment of 41 Gustilo type II and III open tibial fractures. The union times and infection rates were similar to those previously reported for similar fractures treated by external skeletal fixation, but the incidence of malunion was less and fewer required bone grafting. The role of exchange nailing is discussed and a tre...
