متن کاملComparison of supraintercondylar and supracondylar femur fractures treated with condylar buttress plates
BACKGROUND Treatment of supraintercondylar (AO/OTA 33-C) and supracondylar (AO/OTA 33-A) femur fractures is generally challenging. Standard treatments include open reduction and internal fixation. However, optimal implants are now being well-defined. This study focus on the comparison between clinical and functional outcomes of fractures treated with condylar buttress plates (CBPs). METHODS W...
متن کاملRisk factors of loss reduction after percutaneous fixation in supracondylar humerus in pediatric: a descriptive-analytical study
Background & Aims: supracondylar humerus fracture is one of the most common pediatric elbow fractures accounting for about 16% of the pediatric fractures. Loss of reduction is one of the complications after closed and percutaneous fixation. This research is aimed to investigate the factors involved in the loss of reduction. Method: In this descriptive study, the children with supracondylar hum...
متن کاملImmediate weight bearing of comminuted supracondylar femur fractures using locked plate fixation.
Comminuted supracondylar femur fractures (AO-OTA 33A3) are commonly treated with locked plates. Weight bearing is generally restricted for 6 to 12 weeks until radiologic evidence exists of sufficient callous to support weight bearing. Recent clinical studies have reported high nonunion rates with distal femur locked plates. In an attempt to induce beneficial motion across the fracture site, som...
متن کاملTreatment of Gustilo grade III B supracondylar fractures of the femur with Ilizarov external fixation.
Twenty patients who had been treated with Ilizarov external fixation for a Gustilo grade IIIB supracondylar fracture of the femur were functionally assessed 12 to 52 months after treatment. Fourteen fractures were type C3 and 6 were type C2 according to the AO classification. Fractures were united at an average of 39 +/- 9 weeks. There was a final knee extension deficit of 5 degrees to 10 degre...
