Objectives: To determine if there are differences in healing, complications, or number of procedures required to obtain union among open and closed tibia fractures treated with intramedullary (IM) nails inserted without reaming. Design: Prospective, surgeon-randomized comparative study. Setting: Level One trauma center. Patients: Ninety-four consecutive patients unstable (excluding Gustilo Grade IIIB IIIC) the tibial shaft IM nail insertion between November 1, 1994, June 30, 1997....
The placement of iliosacral screws for the stabilization pelvic ring lesions is technically demanding. postoperative computed tomography scans 31 patients who had 57 placed various indications were studied to determine proximity these neurovascular structures. closest distance from S1 foramen averaged 3 mm. (range, 0-10.5 mm); average anterior cortex sacral ala was 4.8 mm 0-15.3 mm). corridor insertion between and sacrum 21.7 16.2-28.9 Trigonometric analysis dimensions suggests that...
Intramedullary nailing is the standard of care for definitive management lower extremity long bone fractures. Occasionally, temporary external fixation used in fractures with severe open wounds or vascular injury before intramedullary nailing. Secondary following somewhat controversial, especially respect to duration that allowable risk infection later becomes too great. Several recent studies have provided further insight into this issue.The primary objective evaluate and nonunion rates...
Closed tibial shaft fractures are common injuries that remain challenging to treat because of the wide spectrum fracture patterns and soft-tissue injuries. Understanding indications for surgical nonsurgical treatment these is essential good outcomes. Although cast stable has traditionally been successful continues be widely used, recent clinical studies have shown intramedullary nails may more advantageous healing function than casting. Surgical (intramedullary nailing, plate fixation, or...
We evaluated the efficacy of free tissue transfer in treatment osteomyelitis thirty-three patients who were followed for an average 41.4 months (range, twenty-four to fifty-nine months). The bone lesions classified two ways: first, according whether there had been drainage less or more than six and second, lesion was Type I, II, III. underwent a total thirty-seven transfers, thirty (79 per cent) transfers survived. Major complications encountered after 41 cent surgical procedures, consisting...
Fractures of the distal femur, proximal tibia, and patella that occur adjacent to a total knee replacement may be very difficult treat. Fixation options are compromised because short articular segment, frequent comminution, pre-existing osteoporosis, previous surgical incisions, presence implant itself. This review article summarizes current concepts regarding incidence, classification, treatment options, outcomes for periprosthetic fractures knee.
This study reports the complications and functional outcomes in patients treated acutely with combined open reduction internal fixation (ORIF) immediate total hip arthroplasty (THA) for displaced comminuted acetabular fractures.Single surgeon retrospective case series.Level 1 trauma center.Thirty-three consecutive (18 women; mean age, 66 years) from 1996 to 2011 an average follow-up of 5.6 years (range, 1-14.3 were included this study.ORIF THA.Oxford Hip Score reoperation.All had at least...
The incidence of acetabular fractures in the elderly population is increasing. Fractures this differ from those younger patients, with more frequent involvement anterior column, comminution, and severe articular impaction patients. Although geriatric patients are likely result low-energy trauma, outcomes generally poorer than young Multiple management options have been proposed, but no intervention has become standard care for these elderly. Patient characteristics (eg, prior ambulation...
The 2 main forms of treatment for distal femur fractures are locked lateral plating and retrograde nailing. goal this trial was to determine whether there significant differences in outcomes between these treatment. Multicenter randomized controlled trial. Twenty academic trauma centers. One hundred sixty patients with were enrolled. twenty-six followed 12 months. Patients 62 cases intramedullary nailing 64 cases. Lateral or Functional scoring including Short Musculoskeletal Assessment,...
Open fractures are one of the injuries with highest rate infection that orthopaedic trauma surgeons treat.

The Management of Acute Compartment Syndrome Clinical Practice Guideline is based on a systematic review current scientific and clinical research. purpose this practice guideline to guide the clinician's ability diagnose treat acute compartment syndrome by providing evidence-based recommendations for key decisions that affect management patients with extremity trauma. This contains 15 including both diagnosis treatment. In addition, workgroup highlighted need better research in treatment syndrome.
