Treatment 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 کاملA biomechanical comparison of micromotion after ankle fusion using 2 fixation techniques: intramedullary arthrodesis nail or Ilizarov external fixator.
BACKGROUND In difficult ankle arthrodesis situations, intramedullary (IM) arthrodesis nails and external fixation are often considered in lieu of standard fusion techniques. The purpose of this study was to compare the amount of micromotion measured across an ankle fusion site stabilized with either an IM nail or with the Ilizarov external fixator. MATERIALS AND METHODS The relative bone mine...
متن کاملManagement of calcaneal fractures using the Ilizarov external fixator.
Twenty five intra-articular fractures of the calcaneus in 25 patients were reduced through a minimal incision and fixed with an Ilizarov external fixator. The average age of patients was 38.6 years (range: 17 to 62 years). According to the Sanders CT classification, 10 (40%) were type II, 9 (36%) type III, and 6 (24%) type IV. The average follow-up was 30 months (range: 24-40 months). According...
متن کاملKnee arthrodesis with simultaneous lengthening using the Ilizarov method.
OBJECTIVE To determine whether knee arthrodesis with simultaneous lengthening using the Ilizarov method for a nonreconstructable knee joint with bone loss and infection is a successful salvage procedure. DESIGN Retrospective review of patients. SETTING University hospital-based orthopaedic practice. PATIENTS From 1999 to 2001, 4 consecutive patients with a nonreconstructable knee joint, b...
متن کاملTreatment of congenital leg length discrepancies in children using an Ilizarov external fixator: a comparative study.
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the influence of intramedullary (IM) alignment used in combination with an Ilizarov external fixation on the healing index (HI) and lengthening index (LI) in the treatment of congenital leg length discrepancies (LLD). This study included 35patients aged from 3.5 to 19 (average age 10.73) who underwent thl egalisation procedure using an Ilizarov external...
