Results of surgical treatment of nonunion of humeral shaft fracture with dynamic compression plate and cancellous bone grafting
OBJECTIVE We evaluated the treatment of nonunion of humeral shaft fracture with dynamic compression plate from January 2002 to December 2009. METHODS Twenty-two patients were treated over the study period. Trauma was the predominant cause of injury in 86.4% of the patients. RESULTS Nonunion was atrophic in 81.8% and hypertrophic in 18.2% of the individuals. There was a primary injury of the...
متن کاملTreatment of nonunion of humeral shaft fracture with dynamic compression plate and cancellous bone graft.
BACKGROUND This study was conducted to evaluate the treatment of aseptic nonunion of the humeral shaft with a dynamic compression plate (DCP) and cancellous bone graft. METHODS One hundred and five cases of nonunion of a humeral shaft fracture between 1982 and 2001 were analyzed retrospectively. The study population comprised 66 males and 39 females with an average age of 46.2 years (range, 1...
متن کاملNonunion of humeral shaft fractures following flexible nailing fixation.
The treatment of humeral shaft fractures ranges from conservative modalities to operative fixation, including plate osteosynthesis and intramedullary fixation. Nonunion is a complication of conservative and operative interventions but is more often associated with elastic nailing. This article discusses elucidates the successful outcomes achieved with flexible nailing of humeral shaft fractures.
متن کاملTwo-plate fixation for humeral shaft non-unions.
PURPOSE. To review 22 patients who underwent 2-plate fixation for non-union of the humeral shaft. METHODS. 13 women and 9 men aged 32 to 76 (mean, 48) years underwent fixation for non-union of the humeral shaft, using a 2-plate construct, together with decortication, debridement, and bone grafting. The two 3.5-mm reconstruction plates were parallel and lying at 90 degrees to each other and fixe...
متن کاملRadiation-Associated Fracture Nonunion of the Clavicle Treated with Locking Plate Fixation and Autologous Bone Grafting
We describe a case of radiation-associated fracture nonunion of the clavicle, which was treated by locking plate fixation and autologous bone grafting. The patient was a 67-year old man who received 70 Gy radiation therapy to treat nasopharyngeal carcinoma. Eight years later, he suffered a pathological fracture of the right clavicle. One year after the fracture, surgical treatment was performed...
