Segmental tibial fractures treated with unreamed interlocking nail – A prospective study
Introduction: Fractures of tibia are common and major skeletal injuries. Treatment of such fractures in adults is a challenge to orthopaedic surgeons due to its poor soft tissue coverage and poor blood supply. The aim towards treatment for the segmental fracture tibia is union maintaining normal length, normal alignment without rotational deformity, normal joint movements and reduced hospital s...
متن کاملDistal third tibia fractures treated with interlocking intramedullary nail
The management of extraarticular fracture of the distal tibia remains controversial. Surgeons are not very keen on using intramedullary interlocking nail for these fractures because of diffi cult nail fi xation, wider medullary canal in the distal tibia and late angulation .The advent of newer nails with locking holes in the distal parts has made nailing possible even in cases of distal tibia f...
متن کاملReamed or unreamed nailing for closed tibial fractures. A prospective study in Tscherne C1 fractures.
We performed a prospective, randomised study on 50 patients with Tscherne C1 tibial diaphyseal fractures comparing treatment with reamed and unreamed intramedullary nails. Our results show that reamed nailing is associated with a significantly lower time to union and a reduced requirement for a further operation. Unreamed nailing should not be used in the treatment of the common Tscherne C1 tib...
متن کاملUnreamed intramedullary nailing with oblique proximal and biplanar distal interlocking screws for proximal third tibial fractures.
PURPOSE To assess the outcome of unreamed intramedullary nailing through the lateralised entry point using oblique proximal and biplanar distal interlocking screws. METHODS 15 men and 3 women aged 25 to 58 (mean, 37) years underwent unreamed intramedullary nailing with oblique proximal and biplanar distal interlocking screws for proximal third metaphyseal tibial fractures. The entry point was...
متن کاملComparison between ender and unreamed interlocking nails in tibial shaft fractures.
OBJECTIVE To compare ender nails and unreamed interlocking nails in a randomized clinical trial study. METHODS From March 2001 to March 2003, 131 patients with tibial fractures of the central two thirds of the tibia were admitted to the emergency ward of Shohada Hospital, Tabriz, Iran and were randomized to either an ender tibial nail or an undreamed interlocking tibial nail as their primary ...
