Surgical Stabilization of Per-Trochanteric Proximal Femur Fracture with Birmingham Hip Resurfacing Implant In-Situ
نویسنده
چکیده
85 years old male patient was admitted with a right-sided perTrochanteric proximal femur fracture following a mechanical fall onto his right side sustained at home. This was an isolated and closed injury with no associated neurovascular deficit. He had previously undergone a Birmingham hip resurfacing (Smith & Nephew®) to his right hip 12 years previously. This had been an uncomplicated surgery with no adverse outcomes. Prior to his fall, he mobilized with a frame due to generalized reduced mobility and imbalance. The gentleman had a past medical history of atrial fibrillation, previous Cerebrovascular accident five years ago with some residual right-sided weakness, and large bowel carcinoma treated successfully with sigmoid colectomy and adjuvant chemotherapy four years ago.

متن کاملInternal fixation of a traumatic fracture around a hip resurfacing arthroplasty using the proximal femoral locking compression plate.
We report on a 40-year-old man who sustained a traumatic extracapsular fracture of the proximal femur with a Birmingham Hip Resurfacing in situ. It was decided to retain the resurfacing implant and a proximal femoral periarticular locking compression plate (Synthes) was used to stabilise the fracture. The patient regained full range of pain-free movement, and was bearing his full weight on the ...
متن کاملOur experience of management of sub trochanteric fractures of femur by proximal femoral nail
The sub trochanteric zone of the femur is the area extending up till 5 cm distally from the inferior border of the lesser trochanter or the junction of the proximal third and middle third of the femoral shaft. Fracture patterns presenting major displacement in this area are considered sub trochanteric fractures despite their proximal or distal extension. 1 High biomechanical stress concentratio...
متن کاملThe Effect of Femoral Neck Notching with the Birmingham Mid-Head Resection
The new generation of metal-on-metal hip resurfacing is becoming an increasingly popular alternative to total hip replacement in the younger and more active patient. Mid-term survivorship figures for osteoarthritic patients are comparable to that of patients receiving a total hip arthroplasty. However, individuals receiving a hip resurfacing for aetiologies other than OA, such as avascular necr...
متن کاملReversed anatomic distal femur locking plate for periprosthetic hip fracture fixation.
The incidence of femoral fracture on hip prosthesis is increasing. Plate fixation is the method of choice when the prosthesis is stable. In fracture with proximal extension, the quality of the bone fixation is critical and, despite the development of anatomic plates, may be endangered when there are too few proximal screws. To resolve this issue, we recommend using a reversed LCP™ anatomic dist...
