Cervical, Thoracolumbar and Lumbosacral Spine: Novel Internal Fixation Devices
Degenerative lumbosacral stenosis (DLSS), cervical spondolymyelopathy (CSM) and thoracolumbar intervertebral disc protrusion are all chronic debilitating conditions of the canine spine. Multiple disparate treatment modalities have been proposed, primarily constituting decompression and stabilization techniques. A novel intervertebral spacer device (FITS, Fitz Intervertebral Traction Screw, pate...
متن کاملA computational study of knitted Nitinol meshes for their prospective use as external vein reinforcement.
External reinforcement has been suggested for autologous vein grafts to address the mismatch of mechanical properties and fluid dynamics of graft and host vessel, a main factor for graft failure. A finite-element tool was developed to investigate the mechanical behaviour, in particular radial compliance, of knitted Nitinol meshes (internal diameter: 3.34 mm) with two different knit designs (eve...
متن کاملLumbosacral fixation using sacroiliac buttress screws: a modification to the Jackson technique with intrasacral rods
BACKGROUND The use of intrasacral rods has been previously reported for posterior lumbosacral fixation. However, problems associated with this technique include poor stability of the rod in the sacrum, difficulty in contouring the rod to fit the lateral sacral mass, and the complicated assembly procedure for the rod and pedicle screws in the thoracolumbar segments after insertion of the rod int...
متن کاملClinical Outcomes of Intramedullary and Extramedullary Fixation in Unstable Intertrochanteric Fractures: A Randomized Clinical Trial
Background: The best method for repairing intertrochanteric fractures is still controversial. The fixation methods includeextramedullary (EM) and intramedullary (IM). Studies that compare IM and EM fixations for unstable hip fractures arerare. In this study, our goal was to compare the efficacy of EM and IM fixation in treatment of unstable intertrochantericfractures.Met...
متن کاملRandomized Prospective Study of Totally Extraperitoneal Inguinal Hernia Repair: Fixation Versus No Fixation of Mesh
BACKGROUND Fixation of the mesh during laparoscopic totally extraperitoneal (TEP) inguinal hernia repair is thought to be necessary to prevent recurrence. However, mesh fixation may increase postoperative pain and lead to an increased risk of complications. We questioned whether elimination of fixation of the mesh during TEP inguinal hernia repair leads to decreased postoperative pain or compli...
