Hybrid external fixation via a minimally invasive method for tibial pilon fractures – Technical note
INTRODUCTION We aimed to present the clinical and radiological outcomes of patients with tibial pilon fractures who were treated with hybrid external fixators. Shanz screws were applied synchronously and used as joysticks for fracture reduction. Radiological evaluations were conducted on roentgenograms at the second week, sixth week, third month and first year. MATERIAL AND METHODS The study ...
متن کاملManagement of Comminuted Tibial Pilon Fractures by Ilizarov External Fixation
Various types of external fixators have been used to treat Ruedi and Allgöwer Type III pilon fractures, as serious complications can occur using conventional treatment principles. However, insufficient reduction and loss of reduction are the two main disadvantages of external fixator treatments. This is a case series involving 15 patients with comminuted closed fractures of the distal tibia (Ru...
متن کاملMinimally invasive treatment of tibial pilon fractures through arthroscopy and external fixator-assisted reduction
OBJECTIVE The aim of this study was to evaluate the clinical outcome of tibial pilon fractures treated with arthroscopy and assisted reduction with an external fixator. METHODS Thirteen patients with tibial pilon fractures underwent assisted reduction for limited lower internal fixation with an external fixator under arthroscopic guidance. The weight-bearing time was decided on the basis of r...
متن کاملClinical Results of Percutaneous Fixation of Pelvic and Acetabular Fractures: A Minimally Invasive Internal Fixation Technique
Background: The pelvic ring fractures (PRF) and acetabular fractures (AF) are among the major orthopedic injuriesassociated with high rates of morbidity and mortality. Open surgical stabilization is the standard treatment for themajority of these complications. Percutaneous minimally invasive surgical stabilization of the fractures has become anaccepted treatment method for th...
متن کاملHigh energy tibial plateau fractures treated with hybrid external fixation
Management of high energy intra-articular fractures of the proximal tibia, associated with marked soft-tissue trauma, can be challenging, requiring the combination of accurate reduction and minimal invasive techniques. The purpose of this study was to evaluate whether minimal intervention and hybrid external fixation of such fractures using the Orthofix system provide an acceptable treatment ou...
