Transolecranon and lateral Kirschner wire fixation for displaced supracondylar humeral fracture in children.
PURPOSE To evaluate the outcome after closed reduction and pinning using a Kirschner wire inserted laterally and another inserted vertically through the olecranon for displaced supracondylar humeral fractures. METHODS 39 boys and 11 girls aged 2 to 12 (mean, 7.27) years underwent closed reduction and pinning using a Kirschner wire inserted laterally and another inserted vertically through the...
متن کاملKirschner wire migration from subcapital humeral fracture site, causing hydropneumothorax
Migration of wires or pins around the shoulder is a known complication, though their migration within the chest is uncommon. We report an unusual case of hydropneumothorax due to migration of a bent Kirschner wire from the right proximal humerus in a 63 year-old man. We reviewed his clinical history, physical examination, imaging findings, surgical method and outcome. We also reviewed the liter...
متن کاملVolar locking plate fixation versus Kirschner wire fixation in distal radius fractures: a meta-analysis
Objective: The superiority of volar locking plate fixation and K-wire fixation on treatment of distal radius fractures was controversial. Thus, we performed a meta-analysis to compare the efficacy of volar locking plate and K-wires for distal radius fracture. Methods: We searched Embase, Medline and PubMed for randomized controlled trials which compare the effects of volar locking plate and K-w...
متن کاملKirschner Wire Fixation of Neglected Lateral Condylar Fracture of the Humerus in Children
Background: Delayed presentation of lateral condylar fractures of the humerus is relatively common in the developing regions of the world. Fractures of lateral condyle of humerus in pediatric age group, the most common being distal humerus epiphyseal injury, are commonly associated with delayed presentation to terminal health care providers. Materials and Methods: Twenty-one children having fra...
متن کاملConservative treatment, plate fixation, or prosthesis for proximal humeral fracture. A prospective randomized study
BACKGROUND Proximal humerus fracture is the third most common fracture type after hip and distal radius fracture in elderly patients. A comprehensive study by Palvanen et al. demonstrated an increase in the annual fracture rate of 13.7% per year over the past 33 years. Should this trend continue, the fracture rate would triple over the next three decades. The increasing incidence of low-energy ...
