Isolated Buttress Plating of Posterior Wall Acetabular Fractures: Is it Sufficient?
Background: Conventional fixation methods of posterior wall acetabular fractures feature the use of plating and lagscrews. However, fixation of posterior wall fractures with buttress plating alone offers potential advantages by avoidingthe hardware complications related to hardware placement through the wall fragment. The purpose of this study wasto examine if buttress plating...
متن کاملOpen reduction and internal fixation of posterior pilon fractures with buttress plate
OBJECTIVE Posterior pilon fractures are rare injuries and have not yet gained well recognition. The purpose of this study was to present the treatment outcome for patients with posterior pilon fractures treated with buttress plate. METHOD In this retrospective study we identified patients with posterior pilon fractures of the distal tibia who had undergone open reduction and internal fixation...
متن کاملStaged posterior tibial plating for the treatment of Orthopaedic Trauma Association 43C2 and 43C3 tibial pilon fractures.
OBJECTIVE Obtaining an accurate reduction of the posterior malleolar fragment in high-energy pilon fractures can be difficult through standard anterior or medial incisions, resulting in a less than optimal articular reduction. The purpose of this study was to report on our results using a direct approach with posterior malleolar plating in combination with staged anterior fixation in high-energ...
متن کاملPolyaxial Screws in Locked Plating of Tibial Pilon Fractures.
This study examined the axial and torsional stiffness of polyaxial locked plating techniques compared with fixed-angle locked plating techniques in a distal tibia pilon fracture model. The effect of using a polyaxial screw to cross the fracture site was examined to determine its ability to control relative fracture site motion. A laboratory experiment was performed to investigate the biomechani...
متن کاملTreatment of Tibial Pilon Fractures
The authors reviewed the clinical results and problems of 11 tibial pilon fractures in 11 patients (average age 55 years). The post-operative follow-up period averaged 18 months (range 3 38 months). The cause of injury in 7 of the cases was motor vehicle accidents. All fractures were closed. According to the AO classification, five fractures were Type B1, 1 was Type B2, 2 were Type C2, and 3 we...
