Arthroscopic-assisted removal of proximal tibia locking plates

We present a new technique to remove plates from the proximal tibia arthroscopic-assisted with all advantages of the minimally invasive surgery and the possibility to treat concomitant intraarticular pathologies. The initial results (n = 7) are promising with an increase of the Lysholm score in all cases studied [preop. median 78 (range 32-100), postop. median 89 (range 60-100)]. In conclusion,...

Biomechanical comparison of bicortical versus unicortical screw placement of proximal tibia locking plates: a cadaveric model.

OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to compare the biomechanical properties of bicortical with unicortical screws in a proximal tibial fracture cadaveric model. SETTING Biomechanics laboratory at a Level 1 trauma center. PATIENTS/PARTICIPANTS Eight pairs (4 male and 4 female) of elderly (average age, 79 years; range, 63 to 104 years) cadaveric tibiae. INTERVENTION Osteotomies were per...

Locking plates in proximal humerus fractures.

It is well known that proximal humerus fractures are among the three most frequent fracture types. Epidemiological invetsigations show that in people elder than 60 years the fracture of the proximal humerus is more frequent than fractures of the hip region (17). Over the last decades several techniques have been applied for treatment of proximal humerus fractures. Widely accepted is the initiat...

Arthroscopic removal of proximal femoral locking screws: a novel application of hip arthroscopy.

The authors describe a novel application of hip arthroscopy. Symptomatic proximal locking screws can readily be removed via an arthroscope. Not only can the proximal screw be removed with much less morbidity than in previously described procedures, but the abductor mechanisms can also be evaluated for injury sustained during the index procedure. Furthermore, scarred or inflamed trochanteric bur...

The arthroscopic-assisted removal of a distal femoral condylar locking plate--a case report.

We describe a minimally invasive procedure for removal of a distal femur locking plate using arthroscopic assistance. Using lateral accessory portals, we performed arthroscopically-assisted removal of distal locking screws. Under fluoroscopic image, proximal screws were removed from the diaphysis. The accessory lateral portal sites used to remove the distal screws were connected. Through this a...
