Nonunion of the femoral diaphysis. The influence of reaming and non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.
We assessed factors which may affect union in 32 patients with nonunion of a fracture of the diaphysis of the femur and 67 comparable patients whose fracture had united. These included gender, age, smoking habit, the use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) the type of fracture (AO classification), soft-tissue injury (open or closed), the type of nail, the mode of locking, reaming ...
متن کاملEfficacy of a compliant semicircular Ilizarov pin fixator module for treating infected nonunion of the femoral diaphysis
Percutaneous transosseous Ilizarov wiring, whilst preferred in the tibia because of its unique properties, carries a high risk of complications in the femur. The aim of this work was to evaluate the efficacy of a more patient-friendly semicircular pin external fixator module built up from parts of the Ilizarov fixator components and its use in managing diaphyseal femoral nonunions. A group of 2...
متن کاملRecurrence of a Unicameral Bone Cyst in the Femoral Diaphysis
Diaphyseal unicameral bone cysts of the long bone are generally known to originate near the growth plate and migrate from the metaphysis to the diaphysis during skeletal growth. In the case of unicameral bone cysts of diaphyseal origin, recurrence at the same location is extremely rare. We report a case of recurrence of a unicameral bone cyst in the diaphysis of the femur that developed 8 years...
متن کاملA locking compression plate as an external fixator for treating infected nonunion of the humeral diaphysis
BACKGROUND Infected nonunion of the humeral diaphysis is a challenging problem for orthopedic surgeons. This study aimed to evaluate the outcome of using a locking compression plate (LCP) as a definitive external fixator in the management of infected nonunion of the humeral diaphysis after failure of internal fixation. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed a series of seven patients with infect...
متن کاملRisk Factors For Femoral Neck Fracture Nonunion
a radiolucent table with the patient in the supine position with slight knee flexion. This is particularly useful in an anterior approach. The standard surgical approaches include the traditional Watson-Jones anterolateral approach, which can facilitate implant placement. However, exposure and reduction of the fracture can be difficult in a large or obese patient. The anterior Smith-Petersen ap...
