Management of Diaphyseal Fractures of Long Bones in Children with Intramedullary Flexible Nail Nailing
Background: Ideally, fixation of paediatric diaphyseal fractures should produce an “internal splint” that shares loads, maintains reduction until hard callus formation, and does not endanger the growth areas or blood supply. Results from several studies have shown that FIN / TENS fixation meets these requirements because it allows rapid mobilization, potentially no risk for osteonecrosis, low r...
متن کاملTreatment for unicameral bone cysts in long bones: an evidence based review
The purpose of this paper is to perform an evidence based review for treatment of unicameral bone cysts. A search of MEDLINE (1966 to 2009) was conducted and the studies were classified according to levels of evidence. This review includes only comparative Level I-III studies. The systematic review identified 16 studies. There is one level I study, one level II study and the remaining 14 studie...
متن کاملFlexible intramedullary nailing versus external fixation of paediatric femoral fractures.
Treatment outcomes were compared in two groups of children with femoral diaphyseal fractures which were treated with external fixation (20 fractures) or flexible intramedullary nailing (20 fractures). These 40 children were between 5.4 to 14.1 years of age. The duration of the operation averaged 52 minutes for the external fixator compared with 70 minutes for the flexible nail group. The time t...
متن کاملRadius-only intramedullary nailing for both-bones diaphyseal forearm fractures in children.
Both-bones diaphyseal forearm fractures are common injuries in the paediatric age group and are potentially unstable. Both-bones intramedullary nailing for these fractures is a minimally invasive procedure that maintains alignment, and promotes rapid bony healing. Good results have also been shown with single-bone fixation. We report our experience in treating these common injuries with radius-...
متن کاملThe results of locked intramedullary nailing for non-union of forearm bones.
BACKGROUND We report our experience with the use of a full-thickness corticocancellous iliac-crest graft, 1 to 5 centimeters in length - to treat established nonunion of the radius and/or ulna. MATERIAL AND METHODS The technique was used in 14 patients (11 men and 3 women, age 19 to 59). The graft application was combined by rigid fixation with intramedullary locking nail, permitting early ac...
