چکیده
This is the first report of arthroscopically assisted reduction and fixation of a juvenile Tillaux fracture. Arthroscopic visualization assisted with the anatomic reduction of the articular fragment. This adds arthroscopy as a modality available to help obtain accurate reduction as well as understand the nature of the fracture pattern in juvenile Tillaux fractures along with its adult counterpart and other intra-articular fractures.

Arthroscopically assisted reduction of type 1A ankle Fractures in Children: Case Report
INTRODUCTION The risk of growth arrest following paediatric ankle fractures type 1 A is very high. Therefore all attempts should be done to anatomically reduce this kind of fracture. The advances in ankle arthroscopy have brought the possibility to reduce these fractures under direct vision, without the need of capsulotomy. The purpose of this paper is to stress the importance of the use of art...

Arthroscopy is commonly used for evaluating intra-articular fracture patterns and assessing postfixation reduction; however, the use of arthroscopy for the definitive treatment of articular fracture nonunion has not been reported. This article describes a case of symptomatic glenoid fossa fracture nonunion that was successfully treated with arthroscopically assisted percutaneous screw fixation ...

INTRODUCTION This meta-analysis was performed to determine whether the arthroscopically assisted open reduction and internal fixation (ORIF) for ankle fractures is more beneficial than the conventional ORIF. METHODS Articles in electronic medial databases were searched between March 1983 and August 2016, including Pubmed and SCOPUS. We included the studies with comparative design comparing th...
متن کاملArthroscopically assisted percutaneous fixation of triplane fracture of the distal tibia.
Triplane ankle fractures typically occur in the adolescent age group. Although many are minimally displaced and can be managed nonoperatively, some are displaced and difficult to reduce by closed methods and need open reduction and internal fixation. Traditionally satisfactory articular reduction is achieved through an open approach, which can be extensive. We describe our experience of treatin...
متن کاملArthroscopically-assisted reduction and fixation of an old osteochondral fracture of the lateral femoral condyle
BACKGROUND Osteochondral fracture (OCF) of the lateral femoral condyle has a low incidence and old OCF is even more rarely seen; it is difficult to differentiate from late osteochondritis dissecans (OCD). CASE REPORT In this report, we present the case of a 20-year-old male patient with an old OCF of the lateral femoral condyle. The possible etiology of OCF is discussed, along with its clinic...
