Polyaxial versus uniaxial volar locking plate for distal radial fractures.
PURPOSE To compare the penetration of the distal screws in relation to the thickness of the distal metaphysis in the polyaxial versus uniaxial volar locking plates. METHODS Records of 78 patients aged 16 to 79 years who underwent open reduction and internal fixation for distal radial fractures (n=81) were reviewed. All fracture subtypes were included. 20 men and 22 women aged 18 to 79 (mean, ...
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 کاملDistal tibia fractures: locked or non-locked plating?
BACKGROUND AND PURPOSE Although plating is considered to be the treatment of choice in distal tibia fractures, controversies abound regarding the type of plating for optimal fixation. We conducted a systematic review to evaluate and compare the outcomes of locked plating and non-locked plating in treatment of distal tibia fractures. PATIENTS AND METHODS A systematic review was conducted using...
متن کاملMid Term Results of Distal Femoral Fractures Treated with a Polyaxial Locking Plate: A Multi-Center Study
OBJECTIVE Locking plates have become a standard implant in the treatment of distal femoral fractures. Newer designs allow polyaxial screw placement as well as the ability to lock the lag screws. METHODS The consecutive multi-centre study cohort consists of all distal femoral fractures treated with the NCB® Distal Femur plate (Zimmer, Warsaw, USA) and a minimum follow-up of twelve months. Frac...
متن کاملOutcome of distal end clavicle fractures treated with locking plates
PURPOSE Fractures of the lateral end of the clavicle are relatively uncommon. These fractures are unstable due to the various deforming forces which act on the fragments as well as the small distal fracture fragment. At most times the deforming forces are not taken into consideration, and the fracture is not fixed securely. In this study, we assessed a fixation technique using the precontoured ...
