Materials and Methods: From May 1999 to June 2001, eighteen patients were treated by closed intramedullary nailing for distal tibial meta-diaphyseal fracture. According to Robinson classification, there were 7 type 1 fractures, 7 type 2A fractures, 1 type 2B fractures, and 2C type fractures. The mean distance between distal end of fracture and tibial plafond was 2.6 ± 1.1 cm (0 ~ 5 cm). We evaluated both clinical and radiographic parameters. Results: Plate fixation of distal fibular fracture was performed in 7 cases. Poller screw was used in 4 cases which showed malalignment after insertion of nail. The mean score was 92.5 point by Blaird ankle scoring system. All patients got the bone union at average of 20 weeks (12 ~ 40 weeks). One patient had a antecurvatum deformity of 9 degrees. Conclusion: Intramedullary nailing for distal tibial fractures is one of the safe and reliable method for managing these injuries.","PeriodicalId":298665,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Korean Society of Fractures","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"127467918","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Materials and Methods: We retrospectively analysed that 19 distal radius fracture, which would not be reduced by closed reduction or too comminuted to maintain reduction or articular surface incongruency, were treated by open reduction and volar plating through anterior approach. The results were evaluated by preoperative and immediate postoperative radiographics and clinical results were analysed using Green and O'Brien scoring system at final follow up. Results: All cases achieved anatomical articular surface reduction postoperatively. In terms of radiologic analysis, mean radial length (8.8 mm ± 4.8 mm vs. 11 mm ± 3 mm), radial inclination (15 °± 5.7 ° vs. 20 °± 5 ° ), volar tilt (-11 °± 13 ° vs. 7 °± 4 ° ) and ulnar plus variant (4 mm ± 3 mm vs. 0 mm ± 1 mm) were improved. The clinical evaluation revealed 9 excellent cases, 7 good cases, 2 fair cases and 1 poor case. The reduction loss and flexor pollicis longus rupture was occurred in one patient, who had severely displaced comminute fracture in initial injury. Conclusion: Using volar plating, authors gain good radiologic and clinical results. But, additional external fixation is recommended to prevent further collapse in severly comminuted fractures.","PeriodicalId":298665,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Korean Society of Fractures","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"130331128","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Materials and Methods: The 45 cases of 45 patients received surgical treatment for Rockwood type 3, acute acromio-clavicular separation in our hospital from Feb. 1992 to Aug. 2001 later with the follow-up study were selected as subjects. The average ages were 28.1 years old, male and female were 42, 3 persons, respectively. Physical examination and plain radiography were used for their diagnosis and the intervals between injury and surgical treatment were 7.8 days. In intraoperative finding, we performed Phemister technique in 15 cases according not to be able to repair coraco-clavicular ligament (group I), modified Phemister technique in 30 cases according to be able to repair that (group II). The average follow up period was 16.2 months, and the UCLA shoulder scoring system and the acromio-clavicular separation scoring system were used to obtain clinical results. Results: Only in Group II, the complication after surgery were associated with superficial infection in two cases and K-wire migration in one case. At last follow up, there were no pain and limitation of range of motion in all cases, and two cases in Group II were found to be subluxation in radiography. Clinical results revealed excellent was 93.3%, good was 6.7% in UCLA shoulder scoring system in both groups, and excellent was 90%, good was 10% for group II in acromioclavicular separation scoring system.

Materials and Methods: We reviewed 12 patients of fatigue fractures of the intramedullary and were followed for a minimum one year. The site of fatigue fracture of the intramedullary nail was at fracture site in 10 cases, just proximal to proximal locking hole in one, and the most proximal of two distal locking holes in one. We analyzed type and diameter of broken nail, time from injury to fatigue fracture, causes of metal failure, and treatment results. Results: Intramedullary nails which had fatigue fracture were reamed AO nail in four cases, Grosse-Kempf nail in four, Russel-Taylor nail in three, and long Gamma nail in one. Time to fracture of implant was average 13.6 months (range, 6 ~ 30 months). All cases were treated by intramedullary nailing, and additional autogenous bone grafting was done in three cases. At an average duration of follow-up of 7.5 months (range, 5 to 10 months), all of the fractures had healed. Conclusion: To prevent fatigue fracture of intramedullary nail, closed obervation for bony union, progressive weight bearing, and augmentation with autogenous bone grafting for comminuted fracture site should be needed.","PeriodicalId":298665,"journal":{"name":"Journal of the Korean Society of Fractures","volume":null,"pages":null},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2003-04-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"126585514","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}
