Z-effect after intramedullary nailing systems for trochanteric femur fractures
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to investigate the incidence of Z-effect after dual lag screw intramedullary nailing systems and risk factors contributing to this effect. We hypothesized that long nails provide more neck strength due to a longer lever than short nails and are therefore less likely to develop a misbalance of a higher head compressive strength than neck compressive strength. ...
متن کاملHip arthroplasty after failed fixation of trochanteric and subtrochanteric fractures
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Hip arthroplasty is an option for elderly patients with osteoporosis for the treatment of failure after fixation of trochanteric and subtrochanteric fractures, either as a total hip arthroplasty (THA) or as a hemiarthroplasty (HA). We analyzed the reoperation rate and risk factors for reoperation in a consecutive series of patients. METHODS All patients (n = 88) operate...
متن کاملNail-plate fixation for trochanteric fractures.
Case 2-Woman aged thirty-three. Sanatorium treatment for pulmonary tuberculosis in 1944, with thoracoplasty five years later. Onset of ankylosing spondylitis in 1953, with marked rigid cervical kyphosis. The vital capacity was only 880 cubic centimetres. The deformity was so severe that atlanto-axial dislocation seemed imminent. Operation was undertaken at C.3-4 level with correction as shown (...
متن کاملCT evaluation of torsional malalignment after intertrochanteric fracture fixation.
INTRODUCTION Trochanteric fractures are commonly stabilized either by intramedullary nailing or plate and screw fixation after reduction on the orthopaedic surgical table under radiological guidance. HYPOTHESIS Closed trochanteric fracture anatomic reduction is difficult in the transversal plane. OBJECTIVES The objective of this prospective study was to assess the rotational malalignment in...
متن کاملTibial rotational osteotomy with intramedullary nail fixation
There are several theoretic advantages of using intramedullary rod fixation for tibial osteotomy fixation. We performed a retrospective review of patients who were treated with a mid-diaphyseal osteotomy of the tibia fixed with an intramedullary rod for isolated, symptomatic tibial torsion. Forty patients (59 tibias) were included in the study and were followed for a minimum of 12 months or unt...
