Coracoclavicular screw fixation for unstable fractures of the distal clavicle. A report of five cases.
Five consecutive unstable fractures of the distal third of the clavicle were treated by indirect open reduction and internal fixation using a temporary Bosworth-type screw. Coracoclavicular fixation provided and maintained reduction of the fracture. Healing occurred uneventfully within nine weeks in all cases. The screw was removed under local anaesthesia after healing of the fracture and there...
متن کاملClosed-Loop Double Endobutton Technique for Repair of Unstable Distal Clavicle Fractures
BACKGROUND Displaced fractures of the distal clavicle are inherently unstable and lead to nonunion in a high percentage of cases. The optimal surgical management remains controversial. HYPOTHESIS Indirect osteosynthesis with a closed-loop double endobutton construct would result in reliable fracture union and obviate the need for additional surgery. STUDY DESIGN Case series; Level of eviden...
متن کاملTemporary coracoclavicular screw fixation for displaced distal clavicle fractures.
PURPOSE To assess the treatment outcome of temporary coracoclavicular screw fixation for displaced distal clavicle fractures. METHODS From January 1995 to December 2003, 30 consecutive patients with Neer type II displaced distal clavicle fractures were treated with open reduction and internal fixation using a coracoclavicular screw. The screw was removed under local anaesthesia after bony uni...
متن کاملComparison of single coracoclavicular suture fixation and hook plate for the treatment of acute unstable distal clavicle fractures
BACKGROUND Surgical managements are recommended for unstable distal clavicle fractures because of a high incidence of nonunion. A variety of methods have been previously reported, but there is no current consensus regarding which method is the most suitable. METHODS Between December 2004 and August 2010, we treated 68 patients with Neer type IIB distal clavicle fractures using single coracocl...
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...
