The purposes of this study were to evaluate the relationship between body mass index (BMI) and postoperative complications determine incidence reoperation after surgical treatment pelvic ring injuries.Three Level I trauma centers.A retrospective review 184 consecutive surgically treated injuries (Orthopaedic Trauma Association 61) was performed. Two patients died in initial period, remaining 182 followed for a minimum 3 months.Complications that evaluated included wound infection dehiscence,...
Objectives: We aimed to determine whether (1) tranexamic acid (TXA) reduces the incidence of transfusion (2) TXA calculated blood loss, and (3) there are any observable differences in 30- 90-day complications with administration during arthroplasty for femoral neck fracture (FNF). Design: Prospective, double-blinded, randomized controlled trial. Setting: Level 1 Academic Trauma Center. Patients/Participants: One hundred thirty-eight patients who presented a low-energy, isolated, FNF (AO 31B)...
The treatment of some pelvic injuries has evolved recently to include the use a subcutaneous anterior fixator (INFIX). We present 8 cases femoral nerve palsy in 6 patients after application an INFIX highlight this potentially devastating complication surgeons using technique and discuss how it might be avoided future.Retrospective chart review. Case series.Five level 1 2 trauma centers, tertiary referral hospitals.Six with ring injury treated who experienced palsies (2 bilateral).Removal...
To compare functional and clinical outcomes in patients with pertrochanteric hip fractures treated either a short (SN) or long (LN) cephalomedullary nail.Prospective, randomized.Clinical investigation was performed at the Mayo Clinic's Level 1 Trauma Center Rochester, MN.Two hundred twenty intertrochanteric were prospectively randomized to an SN LN cohort. A total of 168 (SN, n = 80; LN, 88) had mean follow-up 13.9 months. Fifty-two did not meet minimum 3-month follow-up. Demographics...
Background: Locked-plate fracture-fixation techniques and designs continue to evolve. Polyaxial locking plates that allow screw angulation end-point have become available; however, there are no clinical data documenting their strength efficacy, our knowledge. The purpose of this study was evaluate the performance a variable-axis plate in multicenter series periarticular fractures about knee. Methods: Between 2003 2005, fifty-four patients with total fifty-six were treated polyaxial...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate which primary wound closure technique for ankle fractures affords the most robust perfusion as measured by laser-assisted indocyanine green angiography: Allgöwer-Donati or vertical mattress.Prospective, randomized.Level 1 Academic Trauma Center.Thirty patients undergoing open reduction internal fixation were prospectively randomized (n = 15) mattress closure. Demographics similar both cohorts with respect age, sex, body mass index, surgical timing,...
To determine the radial nerve palsy (RNP) rate and predictors of injury after humeral nonunion repair in a large multicenter sample.Consecutive retrospective cohort review.Eighteen academic orthopedic trauma centers.Three hundred seventy-nine adult patients who underwent shaft repair. Exclusion criteria were pathologic fracture complete motor RNP before surgery.Humeral assessment postoperative function.Measurements: Demographics, characteristics, preoperative function recovery.Twenty-six...
OBJECTIVES: To compare three fluoroscopic methods for determining femoral rotation. METHODS: Native version was measured by computed tomography in 20 intact femurs from 10 cadaveric specimens. Two Steinmann pins were placed into each left femur above and below a planned transverse osteotomy which completed through the diaphysis. Four surgeons utilized true lateral (TL), neck-horizontal angle (NH), lesser trochanter profile (LTP) techniques to correct injured femur's rotation using right as...
Summary: Posterior depression of the lateral articular surface tibial plateau can be difficult to elevate and support with morselized bone graft internal fixation. Progressive collapse after open reduction fixation has been described lead failure in treatment. A standard anterolateral approach tibia may not allow direct stabilization posterolateral joint given anatomic barriers fibular collateral ligament proximal tibiofibular articulation. Posterolateral approaches have depression. These...
Objective: The purpose of this study was to determine the incidence deep venous thrombosis (DVT) in a prospective protocol early spanning external fixation with concurrent use low-molecular weight heparin (LMWH) patients high-energy lower extremity trauma. Setting: Three level I trauma centers. Design: Prospective observational study. Patients: One hundred thirty-six consecutive 151 complex injuries were treated immediate joint application and LMWH administration within 24 hours admission. A...
To evaluate tranexamic acid (TXA) when administered immediately on hospital presentation in patients with extracapsular peritrochanteric hip fractures to determine its effect (1) transfusion rates, (2) estimated blood loss, and (3) complications.

Arthrodesis is rarely used as a salvage procedure for patients with chronically infected total knee arthroplasty (TKA), and little information available about the outcome. The aim of this study was to assess reliability, durability, safety definitive treatment complex, TKA, in current series patients.We retrospectively identified 41 (41 TKAs) complex who were treated between 2002 2016 using deliberate, two-stage arthrodesis. Their mean age 64 years (34 88) their body mass index (BMI) 39...
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the type and severity orthopaedic associated injuries for snowmobile, All-terrain vehicles (ATV) motorized dirtbike accidents in a pediatric patient population.A total 758 patients who presented following either snowmobile (n=87), ATV-related (n=308) or (n=363)-related trauma at our institution between 1996 2015 were retrospectively reviewed.A 441 axial appendicular fractures occurred requiring 533 procedures. Snowmobile with higher rate (63%, 64%)...
