Femoral Reconstruction Using External Fixation
Background. The use of an external fixator for the purpose of distraction osteogenesis has been applied to a wide range of orthopedic problems caused by such diverse etiologies as congenital disease, metabolic conditions, infections, traumatic injuries, and congenital short stature. The purpose of this study was to analyze our experience of utilizing this method in patients undergoing a variety...
متن کاملComputer navigation and fixator-assisted femoral osteotomy for correction of malunion after periprosthetic femur fracture.
Periprosthetic femoral fracture post-total knee arthroplasty can lead to malunion. This may lead to abnormal force transmission and accelerated wear of the prosthesis. Accurate femoral deformity correction depends on the combined correction of the mechanical axis alignment and the lateral distal femoral angle. Modern external fixation correction devices allow for simultaneous gradual correction...
متن کاملEvaluation of Distal Femoral Rotational Alignment with Spiral CT Scan before Total Knee Arthroplasty (A Study in Iranian Population)
Background: Evaluating the landmarks for rotation of the distal femur is a challenge for orthopedic surgeons. Although the posterior femoral condyle axis is a good landmark for surgeons, the surgical transepicondylar axis may be a better option with the help of preoperative CT scanning. The purpose of this study was to ascertain relationships among the axes’ guiding distal femur rotational ...
متن کاملComputer Aided Pre-operative Planning of Fracture Reduction and Deformity Correction in Tibia with Hexapod External Fixator
INTRODUCTION When the Ilizarov external fixator is used for fracture reduction and deformity correction, the planning for correction of 3-D multiple deformities is difficult due to the lack of information on required joint rotations and translations in order to correct the deformities [1]. In addition, if the rotational axis is not placed exactly with respect to axis of the deformity, the rotat...
متن کاملDistal tibial hypertrophic nonunion with deformity: treatment by fixator-assisted acute deformity correction and LCP fixation
Distal tibial hypertrophic nonunion with angular deformity has been successfully treated by circular external fixator. The inconvenience of the bulky external fixator and frequent pin tract infection would not be accepted in certain cases. This study included thirteen patients (mean age 39 years) with angular deformity of the distal dia-/metaphyseal tibial shaft. Five patients were originally t...
