Background: Despite the multitude of studies on non union no clear criterion has been established for declaring a fracture as united. A diagnosis is unjustified, however, until clinical or radiographic evidence shows that healing ceased and highly improbable. shaft long bone should not be considered at least 6 months after injury. The incidence in varies with each methods treating acute ...
BACKGROUND Nonunion of the supracondylar area of the humerus is a very difficult area to treat. The Ilizarov method has been shown to be effective in the treatment of nonunion of the humeral diaphysis. However, there is little in the literature regarding the treatment of nonunion of the supracondylar area especially in post-infection cases. METHODS Eight patients with a mean age of 45.73 ± 11...
We describe a rare case with breakage of gamma nail accompanied by nonunion of the original fracture and a subsequent new fracture in the ipsilateral femur. A 73-year-old woman suffered a subtrochanteric fracture of the femur, and the fracture was fixed with gamma nail at a previous hospital. However, fracture reduction was not adequately achieved and a large gap remained between the fracture f...
INTRODUCTION Nonunion following surgical stabilization of humeral shaft fractures, although infrequent, remains a challenge as limited surgical options are available. The difficulties in re-fixation are due to osteolysis produced by the loose implant components and disuse osteopenia of the entire bone segment. We share our experience in the management of a long standing diaphyseal nonunion of h...
Osteoporotic vertebral fractures (OVFs) are a frequently encountered clinical problem with an estimated incidence of 700,000 per year in the United States. Additionally, they are becoming more common as the median age of the population continues to increase.1-2 OVFs may be a sentinel sign of failing health in elderly patients. The degree of kyphosis correlates well with the patient's physical f...
Patients aged from 40 to 60 with displaced fractures of the femoral neck (Garden III or IV) who received fixation with three cannulated screws from January 2005 to December 2012 were evaluated retrospectively for the development of nonunion. Plasma HbA1C, a marker for long-term plasma glucose level, anti-T2DM medication, and other potential risk factors were recorded for the purpose of this stu...
Successful healing of a nine-year tibial nonunion resistant to six previous surgical procedures was achieved by tissue engineering. We used autologous bone marrow stromal cells (BMSCs) expanded to 5 x 10(6) cells after three weeks' tissue culture. Calcium sulphate (CaSO4) in pellet form was combined with these cells at operation. The nonunion was clinically and radiologically healed two months ...
We report the operative technique and results of a new method of central grafting for persistent nonunion of the tibial shaft. The operation is performed through a lateral approach, anterior to the fibula. Fresh autogenous bone from the iliac crest is used to form a central bridge between the tibia and fibula above, below and at the level of the nonunion. In 48 tibiae, most with long-standing n...
Abstract Background Recently, a standardized uptake value (SUV) has been used to evaluate bone single-photon emission computed tomography (SPECT). The aim of this study was investigate quantitative SPECT imaging uninfected nonunion compare hypertrophic and non-hypertrophic using volume-based parameters. Methods We evaluated 23 patients with who underwent acquisition 3 h after an injection 99m T...
A Case Report of Chronic Nonunion Thighbone Fracture Treatment Based on Iranian Traditional Medicine
Objective Nonunion fracture of lower-extremity long bones is really important because these bones bear the weight of the body. Some reasons of nonunion fracture are: Instability and immobility of the fractured fragments; insufficient blood supply to the fractured site; and damage to periosteum and necrosis of periosteal cells caused by insufficient blood supply. There are two methods of nonunio...
