Safe surgical technique for associated acetabular fractures
Associated acetabular fractures are challenging injuries to manage. The complex surgical approaches and the technical difficulty in achieving anatomical reduction imply that the learning curve to achieve high-quality care of patients with such challenging injuries is extremely steep. This first article in the Journal's "Safe Surgical Technique" section presents the standard surgical care, in co...
متن کاملSafe surgical technique: intramedullary nail fixation of tibial shaft fractures
Statically locked, reamed intramedullary nailing remains the standard treatment for displaced tibial shaft fractures. Establishing an appropriate starting point is a crucial part of the surgical procedure. Recently, suprapatellar nailing in the semi-extended position has been suggested as a safe and effective surgical technique. Numerous reduction techiques are available to achieve an anatomic ...
متن کاملSurgical treatment of displaced acetabular fractures.
INTRODUCTION Acetabular fractures are severe injuries, generally caused by high-energy trauma, most frequently from traffic accidents or falls from heights. Fractures of the extremities, head injuries, chest, abdomen and pelvic ring injuries are most commonly associated injuries. OBJECTIVE The purpose of this study was to evaluate the results of open reduction and internal fixation of acetabu...
متن کاملNon-extensile surgical approaches for two-column acetabular fractures.
We reviewed the outcome, at a mean follow-up of 14 months, of 21 two-column fractures of the acetabulum treated by operation through one or two non-extensile approaches. Eighteen procedures resulted in reduction of the articular surfaces to within 3 mm. The blood loss and operating time when two combined non-extensile approaches were used were similar to those reported for extended acetabular a...
متن کاملAn interactive surgical planning tool for acetabular fractures: initial results
BACKGROUND Acetabular fractures still are among the most challenging fractures to treat because of complex anatomy, involved surgical access to fracture sites and the relatively low incidence of these lesions. Proper evaluation and surgical planning is necessary to achieve anatomic reduction of the articular surface and stable fixation of the pelvic ring. The goal of this study was to test the ...
