Operative management of nonunion scaphoid fracture in children: a case report and literature review.
Scaphoid fractures are uncommon in children, but if maltreated, they can result in nonunion. The authors report a case of left scaphoid nonunion in an 11-year-old boy. The operative management of this pseudarthrosis was performed (K-wire fixation and bone grafting of scaphoid). After a 10-month follow-up period, the left wrist regained a full range of motion with no impairment. The roentgenogra...
Background The primary aim was to identify patient and injury factors independently associated with humeral diaphyseal fracture nonunion after nonoperative management. secondary determine the effect of management (operative/nonoperative) on nonunion. Methods From 2008-2017, a total 734 shaft fractures (732 consecutive skeletally mature patients) were retrospectively identified from trauma datab...
We studied retrospectively the radiographs of 33 patients with late symptoms after scaphoid nonunion in an attempt to relate the incidence of scaphoid nonunion advanced collapse (SNAC) to the level of the original fracture. We found differing patterns for nonunion at the proximal, middle and distal thirds. The mean intervals between fracture and complaint were 20.9, 6.7 and 12.6 years and obvio...
Distal radius nonunion after volar locking plate fixation of a distal radius fracture: a case report
We describe a 59-year-old man who had nonunion of a right distal radius fracture after volar locking plate fixation. He underwent open reduction and internal fixation with a volar locking plate system for a dorsally displaced, unstable distal radius fracture at a previous hospital 5 months ago. Radiographs of the injured wrist showed nonunion of the distal radius with 1.5-mm ulnar minus varianc...
INTRODUCTION Longer-term outcomes of patients with geriatric type II odontoid fracture nonunion remain unclear. METHODS Thirty-four consecutive geriatric patients (>70 years old) with minimally displaced (<50% displacement) type II odontoid fractures were treated 24 hours a day for 12 weeks with rigid collar immobilization between the years 2003 and 2011. Radiographic and medical record revie...
RATIONALE Fracture nonunion is a great challenge for orthopedic surgeons. Many surgical interventions are associated with significant pain and heavy economic burden. Therefore, our aim was to evaluate the outcomes of a new nonoperative treatment for fracture nonunion. PATIENT CONCERNS A 44-year-old man suffered closed fractures of the right tibia and left femur. Eleven months after surgery, t...
Ulnar shortening osteotomy is widely performed as the standard surgical treatment for ulnar impaction syndrome and has a high percentage of success for pain relief. However, delayed union and nonunion of the osteotomy site remain the most concerning complications. In particular, smokers have a higher incidence of nonunion, which amounts to 30% of cases. For the treatment of nonunion, secondary ...
The management of recalcitrant nonunion of the scaphoid can be frustrating. Recent understanding of the vascular anatomy of the distal radius has helped in the management of these problems. Vascularized bone grafting for scaphoid nonunion has improved the union rates. Consequently, familiarity with this procedure is an important tool for any surgeon who treats scaphoid nonunion. Although there ...
Sternal non-union is a severe complication of sternotomy closure following open heart surgeries. Healing problems typically occur in 0.3% to 5% of patients. Technetium-99m methylene diphosphonate (99mTc-MDP) bone scintigraphy has been used to assess bone nonunion to predict the healing response for proper management. In this report, we present the case of a marked sternal nonunio...
Introduction. Although fractures of humeral shaft show excellent results with conservative management, nonunion does occur. Case Report. We bring forth the case of a young male with a 1.5-year-old hypertrophic nonunion of the humerus mimicking an enchondroma. The initial X-ray images of the patient appeared to be an enchondroma, which only on further evaluation and histopathological analysis wa...
