Unstable pelvic fractures associated with femoral shaft fractures: a retrospective analysis.
BACKGROUND Both pelvic fractures and femoral shaft fractures are caused by high-energy injuries. When unstable pelvic fractures and femoral shaft fractures occur concomitantly, the optimal treatment method is controversial. The aim of this study was to establish a reasonable principle for treating such complicated injuries. METHODS Forty patients sustaining unstable pelvic fractures and conco...
متن کاملInjuries Associated with Femoral Shaft Fractures with Special Emphasis on Occult Injuries
Background: Fractures of the femoral shaft are mostly the result of high-energy accidents that also cause multiple trauma injuries, in particular ipsilateral knee and hip injuries. The purpose of this study was to investigate the incidence of injuries associated with femoral shaft fractures and how many of them were undetected. Methods: We studied 148 patients (150 femoral shaft fractures) wi...
متن کاملFemoral shaft fractures in children.
Femoral shaft fractures represent approximately 1.6% of all bony injuries in children. There is a first peak in early childhood and a second one in midadolescence. Although femoral shaft fractures are disabling injuries, most heal rapidly without significant complications. Traction and casting were standard treatment up to a few years ago. Duration of hospitalisation was high. Recently however,...
متن کاملLow-energy femoral shaft fractures associated with alendronate use.
OBJECTIVE Increasing evidence suggests long-term alendronate use may overly suppress bone metabolism, limiting repair of microdamage and creating risk for insufficiency fractures. The purpose of this study is to demonstrate an association between alendronate use and a specific pattern of low-energy femoral shaft fracture. DESIGN, SETTING, AND PATIENTS A retrospective review was performed of p...
متن کاملCurrent Concepts in Paediatric Femoral Shaft Fractures
Pediatric femoral shaft fractures account for less than 2% of all fractures in children. However, these are the most common pediatric fractures necessitating hospitalization and are associated with prolonged hospital stay, prolonged immobilization and impose a significant burden on the healthcare system as well as caregivers. In this paper, the authors present a comprehensive review of epidemio...
