Unstable Femoral Fractures Treated with Titanium Elastic Intramedullary Nails, in Children
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the indications, epidemiology, associated lesions, complications and prognosis among children with unstable femoral diaphysis fractures who were treated with titanium elastic intramedullary nails. METHOD This was a retrospective analysis on 24 patients aged 5-12 years with unstable femoral diaphysis fractures who underwent surgical treatment with elastic titanium intrame...
متن کاملPediatric femoral shaft fractures treated with titanium elastic nailing.
The objective of this study was to prospectively compare intraoperative fluoroscopy time and clinical and radiological results in pediatric femoral shaft fractures treated with titanium elastic nailing (TEN) using a small-incision, blind-hand reduction vs closed reduction. From February 2008 to December 2009, sixty-eight children were enrolled in the study. Patients were divided into 2 groups: ...
متن کاملTreatment of Pediatric Open Femoral Fractures with External Fixator Versus Flexible Intramedullary Nails
Background: In children, inappropriate treatment of open femoral fractures may induce several complications. A few studies have compared the external fixator with flexible intramedullary nails in high-grade open femoral fractures of children. The present study aims at comparing results of these two treatment methods in open femoral fractures. Methods: In this descriptive analytical study, 27 ...
متن کاملBiomechanical Comparison for Unstable Femoral-supracondylar Fractures Treated with Retrograde, Traditional Femoral or Tibial Locked Nails
Retrograde locked intramedullary nailing has gradually been widely used to treat femoral supracondylar fractures. Because a standard femoral supracondylar nail has unique disadvantages: high price and potentially inducing a femoral shaft stress fracture, it is often replaced by a traditional femoral or tibial locked nail. A biomechanical comparison was therefore made between both traditional lo...
متن کاملElastic stable intramedullary nailing of femoral shaft fractures in children.
We report the use of elastic stable intramedullary nailing (ESIN) in 123 fractures of the femoral shaft in children. Flexible rods are introduced through the distal metaphyseal area, and the aim is to develop bridging callus. Early weight-bearing is possible and is recommended. There was one case of bone infection and no delayed union. Complications were minimal, the most common being minor ski...
