Intrapelvic Migration of the Lag Screw in Intramedullary Nailing
Internal fixation with intramedullary devices has gained popularity for the treatment of intertrochanteric femoral fractures, which are common injuries in the elderly. The most common complications are lag screw cut out from the femoral head and femoral fracture at the distal tip of the nail. We report here a rare complication of postoperative lag screw migration into the pelvis with no trauma....
متن کاملIntra-operative migration of dynamic hip screw into the pelvis.
The authors report a rare per-operative complication of intra-pelvic migration of dynamic hip screw, during osteosynthesis of an inter-trochanteric fracture. Possible reasons of migration are analyzed along with the importance of careful execution of the surgical technique to avoid such iatrogenic complications and medico-legal implications.
متن کاملComparison of Intertrochanteric Fracture Fixation with Dynamic Hip Screw and Bipolar Hemiarthroplasty Techniques
Background: At present, there is no consensus on an appropriate treatment modality for intertrochanteric fractures in the elderly with background diseases. The aim of the present study was to compare treatment outcomes of intertrochanteric fractures reduced with dynamic hip screws (DHS) and bipolar hemiarthroplasty in elderly patients with background medical conditions. Methods: In this randomi...
متن کاملHelical blade versus sliding hip screw for treatment of unstable intertrochanteric hip fractures: a biomechanical evaluation.
OBJECTIVE To compare the fixation stability in the femoral head with sliding hip screw versus helical blade designs for unstable, intertrochanteric hip fractures. METHODS A simulated, unstable intertrochanteric hip fracture was created in six pairs of cadaveric femurs. One of each pair was treated using an intramedullary nail with a sliding hip screw (ITST) for femoral head fixation and the o...
متن کاملIntrapelvic migration of a Kirschner wire.
Intrapelvic migration of a Kirschner wire, used in the treatment of hip fracture, is rare. We report a case of intrapelvic migration of a Kirschner wire 10 years after its placement. Even though the patient was asymptomatic, we proceeded to remove the migrated wire using laparoscopic techniques. Given the increasing number of hip operations being performed, and given that intrapelvic foreign bo...
