Treatment of Proximal Femur Osteomyelitis Occurred after Proximal Femoral Nail Antirotation Fixation, with Antibiotic Cement-coated Tibia Intramedullary Nail: A Case Report

Antibiotic cement-coated intramedullary nails maintain a locally high antibiotic concentration while contributing to bone stability. We present a case of femoral subtrochanteric fracture in a patient with an infected nonunion who was successfully treated for an infection and nonunion using an antibiotic cement-coated tibial intramedullary nail. A 79-year-old woman with a right femoral subtrocha...

Treatment of Pediatric Open Femoral Fractures with External Fixator Versus Flexible Intramedullary Nails

  Background: In children, inappropriate treatment of open femoral fractures may induce several complications. A few studies have compared the external fixator with flexible intramedullary nails in high-grade open femoral fractures of children. The present study aims at comparing results of these two treatment methods in open femoral fractures. Methods: In this descriptive analytical study, 27 ...

Preliminary investigations on a new gentamicin and vancomycin-coated PMMA nail for the treatment of bone and intramedullary infections: An experimental study in the rabbit.

To evaluate a new gentamicin-vancomycin- impregnated (2:1) PMMA coating nail as a drug delivery device to treat bone and intramedullary infections, methicillin-resistant Staphylococcus aureus (MRSA) was used to induce femoral osteomyelitis in 20 New Zealand male rabbits. Four weeks after inoculum, the animals were submitted to debridement of infected femur canal, divided into four groups of fiv...

Bone transport over an intramedullary nail. A case report with histologic examination of the regenerated segment.

Bone transport is useful for the treatment of segmental defects, non-union and osteomyelitis. Bone transport has been compared to conventional techniques for the treatment of segmental defects and infection and found to provide better restoration of leg length, to need less cancellous grafting, to have fewer graft fractures and to require less operating time and hospital stay and to have a lowe...

Thermal necrosis after tibial reaming for intramedullary nail fixation. A report of three cases.

We present three young men who sustained closed diaphyseal fracture of the tibia and later developed severe osteocutaneous necrosis induced by heat during intramedullary reaming. They all had a narrow medullary cavity and in all a tourniquet had been used. Each developed a pretibial cutaneous blister soon after operation. In the following month severe osteomyelitis ensued, requiring segmental r...
