Minimally invasive intramedullary rod fixation of multiple metacarpal shaft fractures.
نویسنده
چکیده
Metacarpal shaft fractures tend to shorten and angulate. This tendency is accentuated with the fracture of multiple metacarpals. A variety of methods for treatment have been described. The purpose of this study is to present the results of treatment in patients with multiple metacarpal shaft fractures, treated in a minimally invasive manner, with an intramedullary rod device.

Intramedullary nailing of metacarpal shaft fractures.
Uncorrected bony deformity or stiffness resulting from a metacarpal shaft fracture can produce a significant functional or cosmetic deficit. Intramedullary fixation of metacarpal shaft fractures using small flexible rods can provide stable internal fixation while minimizing the extent of soft tissue trauma that is associated with more extensive surgical techniques such as plate or screw fixatio...
متن کاملMetacarpal shaft fracture fixation with intramedullary k-wire: Surgical and Clinical outcomes
Background: Metacarpal fractures are among the most common fractures. The majority of metacarpal shaft fractures can be treated conservatively. There are numerous indications for operative treatment and various fixation techniques. The purpose of this prospective study was to assess the surgical and clinical outcomes of metacarpal shaft fractures using intramedullary fixation by K-wire (Kirschn...
متن کاملElastic Stable Intramedullary Nailing of Femoral Shaft Fracture-Experience in 48 Children
Background: Femoral shaft fractures are an incapacitating pediatric injury accounting for 1.6% of all pediatric bonyinjuries. Management of these fractures is largely directed by age, fracture pattern, associated injuries, built of the childand socioeconomic status of the family. We retrospectively evaluated the use of elastic stable intramedullary nail (ESIN)in surgical management of femoral s...
متن کاملRigid internal fixation of displaced distal radius fractures.
Distal radius fractures, the most common long bone fracture, are treated in several ways, including closed reduction, percutaneous pinning, external fixation, and open reduction and internal fixation. This article presents a surgical technique and a series of patients treated with a novel minimally invasive intramedullary fixation technique. The implant is a partially flexible intramedullary ro...
متن کاملMinimally invasive plate osteosynthesis vs conventional fixation techniques for surgically treated humeral shaft fractures: a meta-analysis
BACKGROUND In this study, we performed a meta-analysis to identify whether minimally invasive plate osteosynthesis (MIPO) was superior to conventional fixation techniques (CFT) for treating humeral shaft fractures. METHODS A systematic literature search was conducted up to February 2016 in ScienceDirect, Springer, MEDLINE, and PubMed databases for relevant papers that compared the outcomes of...
