The functional outcome of surgically treated unstable pelvic ring fractures by open reduction, internal fixation
Abstract Background: Unstable Pelvic fracture, a result of high energy antero-posterior compression injury, has been managed based on internal fixation and open reduction. The mode of fixation in Unstable Pelvic fracture has, however, been a subject of controversy and some authors have proposed a need to address the issue of partial breach of the pelvic ring elements in these injuries. This st...
متن کاملPosterolateral approach for open reduction and internal fixation of trimalleolar ankle fractures.
posterior malleolar fracture is a displaced fragment that involves more than 25%–35% of the articular surface of the distal tibia. A number of different surgical approaches to this fracture have been advocated. Often, the posterior fragment reduces simultaneously when the lateral malleolus is reduced because of their respective attachments to the posteroinferior tibiofibular ligament (PITFL). T...
متن کاملSurgical Site Infections Following Open Reduction and Internal Fixation of Ankle Fractures
BACKGROUND Ankle fracture fixation is one of the most commonly performed orthopaedic procedures. Although the results are generally favourable, complications are not uncommon, particularly in the case of surgical site infections. These have considerable impact on both postoperative morbidity and healthcare costs. Paradoxically, there is a paucity of literature studying patients who sustain them...
متن کاملOpen reduction and internal fixation of 117 tibial plateau fractures.
This retrospective study evaluated the surgical management of 117 tibial plateau fractures treated between 1990 and 1998. At last patient follow-up, results were rated good to excellent in 94, fair in 13, and poor in 10 cases. Follow-up radiographs showed degenerative changes in the lateral compartment in 29 cases. Other complications included five wound infections, two deep venous thromboses, ...
متن کاملOpen Reduction and Internal Fixation of Distal Humerus Fractures
The goal in the management of distal humerus fractures is to obtain rigid internal fixation that allows immediate rehabilitation of the extremity. The advent of anatomic plating systems as well a systematic approach to these injuries facilitates these goals. This article outlines our approach to these complex problems from injury through rehabilitation.
