A comparative study in fixation methods of medial malleolus fractures between tension bands wiring and screw fixation
OBJECTIVES The aim of this study is to compare two methods of internal fixations of fractured medial malleolus which are simple screw fixation and tension band wiring. PATIENTS AND METHODS Over 5 years we grouped 20 patients with fractured medial malleolus into two groups of operative treatments, group1 treated by malleolar screw fixation and group2 by tension band wiring. The patients were w...
متن کاملInternal Fixation of Transverse Patella Fractures Using Cannulated Cancellous Screws with Anterior Tension Band Wiring
Aims: To evaluate the effectiveness and safety of anterior tension band wiring technique using two cannulated cancellous screws in patients with transverse (AO34-C1) or transverse with mildly comminuted (AO34-C2) patellar fractures. Materials and Methods: This is a prospective study of 25 patients with transverse fracture or transverse fracture with mildly comminuted patella fractures. All the ...
متن کاملAnterograde Headless Cannulated Screw Fixation in the Treatment of Medial Malleolar Fractures: Evaluation of a New Technique and Its Outcomes
OBJECTIVE To evaluate the functional and radiological outcomes of anterograde headless cannulated screw fixation for medial malleolar fractures. SUBJECTS AND METHODS This study included 12 patients (8 males, 4 females; age 27-55 years) with medial malleolar type B fractures according to the Herscovici fracture classification who had undergone anterograde headless cannulated screw fixation sur...
متن کاملMedial malleolar fractures: a biomechanical study of fixation techniques.
Fracture fixation of the medial malleolus in rotationally unstable ankle fractures typically results in healing with current fixation methods. However, when failure occurs, pullout of the screws from tension, compression, and rotational forces is predictable. We sought to biomechanically test a relatively new technique of bicortical screw fixation for medial malleoli fractures. Also, the AO gro...
متن کاملPercutaneous tension band wiring for patellar fractures.
PURPOSE To evaluate outcome of percutaneous tension band wiring for transverse fractures of the patella. METHODS 16 men and 7 women aged 27 to 65 (mean, 40) years underwent percutaneous tension band wiring for transverse fractures of the patella with a displacement of >3 mm. Pain, operating time, mobility, functional score, and complications were evaluated. RESULTS 20 patients underwent suc...
