[External fixation in the treatment of open tibial shaft fractures].
BACKGROUND/AIM Besides the conquasant fractures, open tibia shaft fractures belong to the group of the most severe fractures of tibia. Open tibia shaft fracture is one of the most common open fractures of long bones. They most frequently occur as a result of traffic accidents caused by the influence of a strong direct force. METHODS Within the period from January, 2000 to December 31, 2005 at...
متن کاملOpen Tibial Shaft Fractures; Treatment with External Fixator
.. Objective: The purpose of the study was to evaluate the clinical results after operative treatment of open tibia fractures (grade IIIA/B) with external fixator. Material and methods: 25 patients with open fractures of the tibial diaphysis, classified as type III A and B, according to the Gustilo classification, were operatively treated in Agency Headquarter Hospital Landikotal. All the patie...
متن کاملOutcomes of the isolated closed tibial shaft fractures treated nonsurgically
Abstract Background: Fractures of the tibia are important for their commonness and controversy in their management. Both conservative and surgical techniques have been introduced in an effort to speed time to :::union::: while minimizing the occurrence of complications. Standard treatment for low-energy tibial shaft fractures includes closed reduction and cast immobilization. The purpose of...
متن کاملConversion of open tibial IIIb to IIIa fractures using intentional temporary deformation and the Taylor Spatial Frame
The closure of small-to-moderate-sized soft tissue defects in open tibial fractures can be successfully achieved with acute bony shortening. In some instances, it may be possible to close soft tissue envelope defects by preserving length and intentionally creating a deformity of the limb. As the soft tissue is now able to close, this manoeuvre converts an open IIIb to IIIa fracture. This obviat...
متن کاملDoes the Taylor Spatial Frame accurately correct tibial deformities?
BACKGROUND Optimal leg alignment is the goal of tibial osteotomy. The Taylor Spatial Frame (TSF) and the Ilizarov method enable gradual realignment of angulation and translation in the coronal, sagittal, and axial planes, therefore, the term six-axis correction. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES We asked whether this approach would allow precise correction of tibial deformities. METHODS We retrospectively...
