Z-effect after intramedullary nailing systems for trochanteric femur fractures
PURPOSE The aim of this study was to investigate the incidence of Z-effect after dual lag screw intramedullary nailing systems and risk factors contributing to this effect. We hypothesized that long nails provide more neck strength due to a longer lever than short nails and are therefore less likely to develop a misbalance of a higher head compressive strength than neck compressive strength. ...
متن کاملCauses and treatments of lag screw's cut out after intramedullary nailing osteosinthesis for trochanteric fractures.
Background. Superior cut-out of a lag screw remains a serious complication in the treatment of trochanteric or subtrochanteric fractures and it is related to many factors: the type of fracture, osteoporosis and the stability of fracture reduction. Little is known about the outcome after revision surgery for complications of the gamma nail. We assessed the outcome in patients who had revision su...
متن کاملRetrograde versus antegrade intramedullary nailing of gunshot diaphyseal femur fractures.
BACKGROUND The use of retrograde nailing for gunshot wound femur fractures is controversial due to concerns of knee sepsis after this procedure since the knee is entered to introduce the nail into the canal. QUESTIONS/PURPOSES We compared retrograde and antegrade nailing for gunshot femur fractures to determine whether (1) knee sepsis or other adverse events were more likely to complicate pro...
متن کاملPediatric Diaphyseal Femur Fractures: Submuscular Plating Compared With Intramedullary Nailing.
This study compared the radiographic and clinical outcomes of pediatric diaphyseal femur fractures treated by submuscular plating, flexible retrograde intramedullary nailing, or rigid antegrade intramedullary nailing with a trochanteric entry point in skeletally immature patients who were 8 years and older. A retrospective review was conducted of skeletally immature patients 8 years and older w...
متن کاملComparison of locked plating and intramedullary nailing for periprosthetic supracondylar femur fractures after knee arthroplasty.
This study aimed to compare the efficacy of two treatment modalities for periprosthetic supracondylar fractures. The results of intramedullary nailing in 7 patients and locked plating in 9 patients were reviewed retrospectively. Mean follow-up was 4.3 years (range : 1 to 13 years). One patient died on the first postoperative day. Union of the fracture was achieved in the other 15 patients, afte...
