Clinical results of treatment using a clavicular hook plate versus a T-plate in neer type II distal clavicle fractures.
AO clavicular hook plate fixation provides more rigid fixation and good bony union rates for Neer type II distal clavicular fractures. However, the hook may cause rotator cuff tears and subacromial impingement, which adversely affect the clinical results. T-plate fixation is another surgical method of treatment for unstable clavicle fractures, and its clinical efficacy has been demonstrated. Th...
متن کاملClavicular Hook Plate: A Better Implant Choice for Fixation of Unstable Distal Clavicle Fractures?
1878-3317/$ e see front matter Copyright 2012, Ta http://dx.doi.org/10.1016/j.jecm.2012.09.002 Background: The ideal fixation method for unstable distal clavicle fractures is still controversial. Clavicular hook plates (HPs) are an effective option but the clinical efficacy and advantages/disadvantages of this implant compared with the tension band wire technique in treating this fracture have ...
متن کاملArthroscopic evaluation for omalgia patients undergoing the clavicular hook plate fixation of distal clavicle fractures
BACKGROUND The aim of this study is to investigate the anatomic changes in the shoulder joints responsible for omalgia after the clavicular hook plate fixation under arthroscope. METHODS Arthroscopic examination was carried out for 12 omalgia patients who underwent clavicular hook plate fixation due to distal clavicle fractures. Functional outcome of shoulder was measured by the Japanese Orth...
متن کاملResults of surgical treatment for unstable distal clavicular fractures.
HYPOTHESIS Delayed surgical treatment of unstable distal clavicle fractures is associated with a higher complication rate. MATERIALS AND METHODS Between 1998 and 2008, a retrospective study of 38 patients (average age, 42.9 year) with Neer type II clavicular fractures was performed. Fractures were treated with a hook-plate (22 patients) or with superior locked plate with suture augmentation (...
متن کاملOpen reduction and internal fixation of a distal clavicle fracture using a clavicle hook plate
Historically, fractures of the clavicle have been treated nonoperatively. However, it is becoming much more common for orthopedic surgeons to treat clavicle fractures with open reduction and internal fixation-particularly fractures of the lateral clavicle with high rates of nonunion, such as the Neer type II. Several techniques and devices are currently being used for clavicle fixation. We pres...
