Locking versus nonlocking palmar plate fixation of distal radius fractures.
This study compared functional and radiological outcomes after treatment of extension-type distal radius fractures with conventional titanium nonlocking T-plates or titanium 1.5-mm locking plates. A total of 60 patients were included and followed for 4 to 7 years after receiving nonlocking T-plates (group A; n=30) or locking plates (group B; n=30) with and without dorsal bone grafting. Bone gra...
متن کاملFunctional Results of Unstable (Type 2) Distal Clavicle Fractures Treated with Superior Anterior Locking Plate
Background: The treatment of distal clavicle fracture is always a challenge, as it is mostly unstable and has higherrate of delayed union, malunion, non-union and associated acromioclavicular arthritis. So the management of thesefractures remains controversial. The purpose of this study is to evaluate the functional results of Type 2 distal endclavicle fractures treated with superior anterior l...
متن کاملA Pitfall in Fixation of Distal Humeral Fractures with Pre-Contoured Locking Compression Plate
Anatomically precontoured locking plates are intended to facilitate the fixation of articular fractures and particularly those associated with osteoporosis. Fractures of the distal humerus are relatively uncommon injuries where operative intervention can be exceptionally challenging. The distal humeral trochlea provides a very narrow anatomical window through which to pass a fixed-angle locking...
متن کاملTreatment of unstable distal radius fractures with the volar locking plate
BACKGROUND Open reduction and internal fixation using an interlocking plate system has gained popularity for the treatment of dorsally displaced distal radius fractures. PURPOSE To evaluate the functional and radiological results of treating unstable distal radius fractures with the volar locking plate. PATIENTS AND METHODS A retrospective review was conducted of patients from one instituti...
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...
