Wrist arthrodesis for brachial plexus palsy using an external fixator and a cannulated screw (Ioannina technique).
PURPOSE To present a new technique for wrist arthrodesis and review its treatment outcomes in 33 patients with brachial plexus palsy. METHODS 26 men and 7 women (mean age, 26 years) with global brachial plexus palsy underwent wrist arthrodesis using an external fixator and a cannulated screw.

متن کاملFunctional outcome of knee arthrodesis with a monorail external fixator
Several methods for obtaining knee arthrodesis have been described in the literature and world; over, the commonest cause for arthrodesis is a failed arthroplasty. Less commonly, as in this series, post-infective or traumatic causes may also require a knee fusion wherein arthroplasty may not be indicated. We present salient advantages along with the radiological and functional outcome of twenty...
متن کاملAn original knee arthrodesis technique combining external fixator with Steinman pins direct fixation.
INTRODUCTION Knee arthrodesis may be the last possible option for infected total knee arthroplasty (TKA) patients and in revision cases involving severe bone loss and/or extensor mechanism damages. Success in these situations depends on achieving good fixation assembly stability. We report bone fusion results using a fixation technique combining cross-pinning by two Steinman pins with a single-...
متن کاملTreatment of Popliteal Pterygium Using an Ilizarov External Fixator
Popliteal pterygium syndrome is a rare congenital disorder that consists of popliteal webs and craniofacial, genitourinary and extremity anomalies. Only moderate successful surgical excision of the fibrotic band within the popliteal web has been reported because the nerves and vessels in the affected site are short and displaced into the web and they are attached to adjacent tissues. We perform...
متن کاملShoulder arthrodesis using combined internal and external fixation: a review of 9 cases.
A technique of shoulder arthrodesis is presented. Fixation of the arthrodesis combines scapulohumeral half-frame Hoffmann external fixation and internal fixation using a cancellous screw. Cancellous bone autografts are packed at the site of arthrodesis. The functional results of nine cases are presented.
