Valgus deformity after proximal tibial fractures in children.
Late valgus deformity after simple fracture of the proximal tibial metaphysis in children, despite adequate initial alignment, was first described by Cozen (1953). It has been suggested in the “check rein” theory that infolding of the periosteum and the pes anserinus at the fracture site may alter the forces on the proximal tibia and lead to deformity. If this is so, then operative removal of t...
متن کاملOutcomes of the isolated closed tibial shaft fractures treated nonsurgically
Abstract Background: Fractures of the tibia are important for their commonness and controversy in their management. Both conservative and surgical techniques have been introduced in an effort to speed time to :::union::: while minimizing the occurrence of complications. Standard treatment for low-energy tibial shaft fractures includes closed reduction and cast immobilization. The purpose of...
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 کاملPreoperative planning of proximal tibial fractures
Historically open reduction and internal !xation of high energy proximal tibia fractures have been associated with high rates of infection (13–88%) and nowadays staged protocol for management was proposed (1). Also articular step o"s and angular deformities after operative treatment are observed in 10–19% of cases (2). Taking all this into account the complex tibial plateau fractures management...
متن کاملIntramedullary nailing of proximal tibial fractures
can be difficult when using the standard entry portal. We evaluated the suprapatellar portal, using a midline quadriceps tendon incision, to perform intramedullary nailing of the tibia. Seven patients were treated with this adaptation of the standard intramedullary nailing procedure. An arthroscopy was done before and after the nailing procedure. No special equipment was used to perform the int...
