Tension band wire for acetabular fracture fixation: a technical note.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Maintaining reduction of an acetabular fracture during internal fixation is difficult. A variety of clamps can be used to facilitate reduction, but they are cumbersome and may damage the sciatic nerve. We developed a simple and cost-effective technique for provisional reduction and fixation of acetabular fractures using 2 screws and a tension band wire.

Use of sutures as Kirschner wire and tension-band wire for olecranon fractures: a technical note.
Open reduction and internal fixation using tension-band wires for displaced olecranon fractures enables restoration of extensor function. We report on 3 elderly patients with a displaced olecranon fracture who underwent open reduction and internal fixation using sutures as the Kirschner wire and tension-band wire and achieved good outcome.
متن کاملRESPONSE OF METACARPAL FRACTURE FIXATION CONSTRUCTS TO PHYSIOLOGICAL LOADINGS
This study compares the functional capabilities of different metacarpal fixation constructs under physiological loadings in an attempt to identify the optimal construct rather than the strongest one. One hundred and twenty-six preserved human metacarpals were mechanically tested after oblique osteotomies and internal fixation. Maximum load to failure, average structural rigidity, and energ...
متن کاملArthroscopic Reduction and Transportal Screw Fixation of Acetabular Posterior Wall Fracture: Technical Note
Acetabular fractures can be treated with variable method. In this study, acetabular posterior wall fracture was treated with arthroscopic reduction and fixation using cannulated screw. The patient recovered immediately and had a satisfactory outcome. In some case of acetabular fracture could be good indication with additional advantages of joint debridement and loose body removal. So, we report...
متن کاملOperative treatment of communited olecranon fractures using tension-band wiring and miniplate augmentation.
Olecranon fractures are intra-articular injuries that require anatomic restoration of the articular surface. For most simple noncomminuted transverse olecranon fractures, tension band wire fixation can provide a stable construct to allow for early joint range of motion. However, in comminuted olecranon fractures, it is difficult to provide a sufficient buttress for impacted articular fragments ...
متن کاملMigration of a Kirschner wire to the dorsolateral side of the foot following osteosynthesis of a patella fracture with tension band wiring: a case report
BACKGROUND Patella fractures represent 1 % of all musculoskeletal system fractures. Fixation of patellar fractures using open reduction and tension band wiring is a commonly used and successful surgical fixation method. CASE PRESENTATION A 28-year-old male patient from Turkey presented to our clinic with complaints of palpable foreign bodies under the skin on the dorsolateral side of his righ...
