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 کاملUse of flexible intramedullary nails in pediatric femur fractures.
Flexible intramedullary nails are now routinely used for stabilization of pediatric femur fractures. Few data are available regarding patients' postoperative range of motion, weight-bearing status, activity levels, use of immobilization, and radiographic leg length discrepancy measured via routine scanograms. Patients who underwent placement of flexible intramedullary nails for a pediatric femu...

QUESTIONS/PURPOSES We compared retrograde and antegrade nailing for gunshot femur fractures to determine whether (1) knee sepsis or other adverse events were more likely to complicate pro...
