Partial proximal tibia fractures
Partial tibial plateau fractures may occur as a consequence of either valgus or varus trauma combined with a rotational and axial compression component.High-energy trauma may result in a more complex and multi-fragmented fracture pattern, which occurs predominantly in young people. Conversely, a low-energy mechanism may lead to a pure depression fracture in the older population with weaker bone...
متن کاملAdolescent Proximal Tibia Physeal Injury
Proximal tibial growth plate injuries are one of the rare cases seen in adolescents. Acute complications, such as arterial damage and compartment syndrome, and also chronic complications, such as genu recurvatum, can be seen in these patients. In this review, we present the treatment and complications of 2 14-year-old patients, who were admitted to our emergency service as a result of acute tra...
متن کاملClassification of proximal tibial fractures in children
PURPOSE To develop a classification system for all proximal tibial fractures in children that accounts for force of injury and fracture patterns. METHODS At our institution, 135 pediatric proximal tibia fractures were treated from 1997 to 2005. Fractures were classified into four groups according to the direction of force of injury: valgus, varus, extension, and flexion-avulsion. Each group w...
متن کاملReconstruction of the extensor mechanism after proximal tibia endoprosthetic replacement.
The proximal tibia is a difficult area in which to perform a wide resection of a bone tumor. This difficulty is due to the intimate relationship of tumor in this location to the nerves and blood vessels of the leg, inadequate soft tissue coverage after endoprosthetic reconstruction, and the need to reconstruct the extensor mechanism. Competence of the extensor mechanism is the major determinant...
متن کاملProximal Circumstances: a Mechanism-based Classification of Crime Prevention
The evaluation of England's Safer Cities Programme requires taking account of over 3,000 diverse preventive schemes. A formal, detailed and comprehensive classification system Is required. In developing It, this paper considers why classification Is necessary, Identifies what features a good classification system needs, and examines—andflnds wanting—existing frameworks. Starting from bastes, a ...
