BACKGROUND Surgical revision concepts for the treatment of aseptic humeral, femoral, and tibial diaphyseal nonunion were evaluated. It was analyzed if the range of time to bone healing was shorter, and if clinical and radiological long-term outcome was better following application of additional recombinant human Bone Morphogenetic Protein-7 (rhBMP-7) compared to no additional rhBMP-7 use. MET...
The scaphoid is the most commonly fractured bone in the carpus. Although greater than 90% of scaphoid fractures unite with cast immobilization, failure to heal remains a clinical reality, particularly when the fracture is displaced or associated with intracarpal instability [1–3]. Dabezies [4] reported a 55% incidence of nonunion and a 50% rate of proximal pole avascular necrosis (AVN) in scaph...
Primary bone healing fails to occur in 5-15 % of scaphoid bones that undergo fracture fixation. Untreated, occult fractures result in nonunion up to 12 % of the time. Conventional bone grafting is the accepted management in the treatment algorithm of scaphoid nonunion if the proximal pole is vascularized. Osteonecrosis of the proximal scaphoid pole intuitively suggests a need for transfer of th...
BACKGROUND This is a therapeutic study to evaluate the results of the management of forearm infected nonunion using bone transport with external fixators after debridement. METHODS We have retrospectively reviewed a consecutive series of 21 patients from October 1994 to June 2010 in our institution who were treated for the forearm infected nonunion by bone transport with external fixator afte...
BACKGROUND This study was conducted to evaluate the treatment of aseptic nonunion of the humeral shaft with a dynamic compression plate (DCP) and cancellous bone graft. METHODS One hundred and five cases of nonunion of a humeral shaft fracture between 1982 and 2001 were analyzed retrospectively. The study population comprised 66 males and 39 females with an average age of 46.2 years (range, 1...
BACKGROUND Although minimally invasive approaches are widely used in many areas of orthopedic surgery nonunion therapy remains a domain of open surgery. Some attempts have been made to introduce minimally invasive procedures into nonunion therapy. However, these proof of concept studies showed fusion rates comparable to open approaches never gaining wider acceptance in the clinical community. W...
The present study was to analyze clinical outcome of Pauwels grade-3 femoral neck fractures treated by different surgical techniques. Potential risk factors associated with nonunion and osteonecrosis of the femoral head (ONFH) were investigated as well. The retrospective study comprised of 67 sequential patients treated between January 2008 and December 2011. Patients with Pauwels grade-3 femor...
The purpose of this study was to review the clinical results of carpal ligaments injuries with scaphoid nonunion. We hypothesized that scaphoid nonunion with carpal ligament injury is associated with clinical result. We retrospectively reviewed 60 cases of -Herbert screw fixation with bone graft for scaphoid nonunions. Scapholunate (SL) and lunotriquetral (LT) ligaments lesions were confirmed b...
BACKGROUND Tibial shaft fractures are the most common long bone fracture and are prone to complications such as nonunion requiring reoperations to promote fracture healing. We aimed to determine the fracture characteristics associated with tibial fracture nonunion, and their predictive value on the need for reoperation. We further aimed to evaluate the predictive value of a previously-developed...
Regardless of the method of treatment, as many as 5% of all pelvic fractures result in malunion or nonunion of the pelvis. However, there is not much information in the literature on the management of these late complications. Because they cause disabling symptoms and socioeconomic problems, some patients with malunion or nonunion of pelvic fractures need to undergo surgery. We report our exper...
