Closed tibial shaft fractures: management and treatment complications. A review of the prospective literature.
OBJECTIVE To compare the results and complications of the various modalities for treating closed fractures of the tibial shaft described in the prospective literature. DATA SOURCES A MEDLINE search of the English language literature from 1966 to 1999 was conducted using the MeSH heading "tibial fractures." Studies pertaining to the management of closed tibial shaft fractures were reviewed, an...
متن کاملComparison of Results of Conservative and Operative (Interlocking Nail) Treatment of Closed Isolated Diaphyseal Tibial Fracture in Adult
The aim of this prospective study is to compare the result of treatment in two groups , one group closed intramedullary nailing after reaming with the other group closed reduction followed by plaster casting in the patient having isolated closed diaphyseal tibial fracture in adult. Materials & Methods: All patients with an isolated closed unilateral fracture of the tibial diaphysis, , were eval...
متن کاملMeta-analysis of reamed versus unreamed intramedullary nailing for open tibial fractures
BACKGROUND Open fractures of the tibial diaphysis are usually caused by high-energy trauma and associated with severe bone and soft tissue injury. Reamed and unreamed intramedullary nailing are often used for treatment of tibial injury. The purpose of this study was to investigate the clinical efficacy of reamed versus unreamed intramedullary nailing for open tibial fractures (OTF). METHODS A...
متن کاملRandomized trial of reamed and unreamed intramedullary nailing of tibial shaft fractures.
BACKGROUND There remains a compelling biological rationale for both reamed and unreamed intramedullary nailing for the treatment of tibial shaft fractures. Previous small trials have left the evidence for either approach inconclusive. We compared reamed and unreamed intramedullary nailing with regard to the rates of reoperations and complications in patients with tibial shaft fractures. METHO...
متن کاملAdvances in Intramedullary Nailing: Suprapatellar Nailing of Tibial Shaft Fractures in the Semiextended Position.
Reamed locked intramedullary nailing remains the standard treatment for displaced tibial shaft fractures. Supra-patellar tibial nailing in the semiextended position has been suggested as a safe and effective surgical technique that allows mitigating certain challenges of the standard subpatellar approach. Suprapatellar nailing seems to facilitate achieving and maintaining fracture reduction, pa...
