The olecranon osteotomy approach is considered the gold standard, especially in those fractures with an intra-articular comminution, but is associated with complications. In selected cases, utilizing the triceps-on or paratricipital approach should allow adequate fixation while decreasing the incidence of complications. Methods: Patients with distal humerus fractures were treated with open reduction and internal fixation via the paratricipital approach. All patients were evaluated based on their preoperative and intraoperative parameters. Postoperative rehabilitation was implemented and the functional outcome was assessed based on the range of motion and Mayo Elbow Performance Score. Results: The current study encompassed thirty patients with a mean age of 47.5 years. AO/OTA C1 type fracture was encountered in 13 patients. The mean operative time was around 90 min. The mean elbow flexion at 2 months was 127.5°. Union was achieved in all patients, and one patient had surgical site infection. Conclusion: Metaphyseal and simple inter-articular fractures may be adequately visualized and managed with the above approach. Early rehabilitation allows faster return to normal function.","PeriodicalId":34809,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Orthopaedic Diseases and Traumatology","volume":"5 1","pages":"95 - 99"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"43552957","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}

An increasing incidence of road traffic accidents, farm accidents, gunshot wound predisposes it for open fracture. Open fractures of the tibia are the most common open long bone fractures. High-energy trauma is the primary mechanism of injury, with over 50% of cases being attributed to road traffic accidents are frequently contaminated. The treatment of open tibia fractures is still controversial. This prospective study was conducted at a tertiary care trauma center to evaluate the functional outcome and complications following primary debridement and nailing in type I to type IIIA open tibia fractures. Materials and Methods: A total of 30 patients diagnosed with open tibial diaphyseal fractures, who underwent primary debridement and fixation with intramedullary interlocking nail were included in the study and type III B, type III C open fractures were excluded. Patients were followed for a period of 12 months and assessed using Modified Ketenjian criteria and Johner − Wruhs' criteria. Results: Out of 30 patients who underwent primary nailing for open tibia fractures, 66.67% had excellent, 26, 67% good, and 6.66% of patients had fair results. 93.33% of the patients had union within 9 months and 6.66% of the cases had delayed union.

There are numerous types of plates used in this region and one among them is the extra-articular distal humerus locking plate. This anatomically precontoured plate is specifically designed for the fixation of extra-articular distal humerus fractures. Usually, distal humeral extra-articular fractures are often associated with complications. This study reports satisfactory outcomes with the usage of extra-articular plate osteosynthesis for extra-articular humerus fracture management. It has now become a choice of management in our center for the management of extra-articular distal humerus fractures because of its advantages. We evaluated the clinical and functional outcomes of treating these fractures. Materials and Methods: We studied 20 patients who underwent fixation over 2 years. Mayo Elbow Performance Score was used to analyze functional outcomes. The time for union, range of motion at shoulder and elbow, and secondary procedures were recorded in follow-up. Shoulder and elbow function was assessed using the Mayo Elbow Performance Score. Results: During the study of 20 cases of distal humerus fractures treated by extra-articular distal humerus locking plate. Majority (40%) of the study participants were in the age group of 18–30 years. The mean age group is 39.8 years. Among 20 patients, thirteen were males and seven were female patients showing a male preponderance. About 14 and 6 patients with the right and left sides were involved, respectively. Eighty-five percent of the fractures united within 16 weeks, whereas for three patients (15%), fracture united at 18 weeks. The mean average time to union is 15.2 weeks. Eighteen (90%) patients had excellent elbow movement. Two (10%) patients had elbow stiffness. This was reduced to 32 weeks. All the patients were mobilized on day 2 after surgery. Eighteen patients (90%) had excellent results. Fair results were observed in two patients.","PeriodicalId":34809,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Orthopaedic Diseases and Traumatology","volume":"5 1","pages":"89 - 94"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"41620447","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}

The deforming forces on both the proximal and distal segments are difficult to control due to peculiar muscle insertion to the proximal and distal fragments. This study aims to assess the effectiveness of Proximal Femoral Nailing (PFN) for the treatment of subtrochanteric fractures of femur. Materials and Methods: This is a prospective study of evaluation of results of 32 patients who sustained subtrochanteric femur fracture treated with PFN at our institute from June 2018 to May 2020. All the patients in this study were above 18 years of age including both genders. All closed fractures and open Grade 1 and 2 fractures according to Gustilo–Anderson classification were included. Results: In this study of 32 patients, the mean age was around 3rd and 4th decade of life and Road traffic accidents was the major cause of injury (high-velocity trauma). The average radiological union time was 15.9 weeks. In 2 (6.24%) patients, there was postoperative infection and 3 (9.36%) patients had broken implant and 1 (3.12%) patient had nonunion. According to Harris hip score, 29 (90.6%) patients showed excellent-to-good results. Conclusion: PFN is a closed intramedullary nailing procedure which achieves biological fracture fixation with minimal blood loss, preserving the fracture hematoma and thus aiding in healing of the fractures. It provides good axial as well as rotational stability.","PeriodicalId":34809,"journal":{"name":"Journal of Orthopaedic Diseases and Traumatology","volume":"5 1","pages":"74 - 77"},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2022-05-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"48665610","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}

Settings and Design: This is a prospective observational study and nonprobability sampling technique. Materials and Methods: In this prospective study, 20 patients with osteoarthritis knee of Grades III and IV were selected according to Kellgren-Lawrence Grading system. In this study, we assess the functional outcome of total knee replacement using Knee Society Score and radiological outcome using radiographic alignment. The patients were regularly followed up for both functional and radiological outcome at 1st, 3rd, 6th, 12th, and 18 months and then yearly. Statistical Analysis Used: The collected data were analyzed by SPSS 20.00 using the Chi-square test. Results: Preoperatively, our overall mean Knee Clinical and Knee Functional Score was 30.9 and 36.45 which improved to 87.7 and 84 postoperatively with the significant P < 0.001. Our study shows that we have 80% of excellent and 15% good results following total knee replacement. Radiologically all patients have a near-normal radiographic alignment which in turn improves the functional outcome of the patients. Conclusion: Total knee replacement using nonconstrained, PS design and medial parapatellar approach gives functionally excellent pain relief, increased range of motion, restoration of normal function, low prevalence of patellofemoral complications, correction of varus and fixed flexion deformities, and restoration of normal mechanical alignment. Postoperatively, patients with near-normal radiographic alignment like femorotibial angle, posterior condylar offset, and posterior tibial slope have good functional outcome and faster rehabilitation. Correct positioning of the components axially and rotationally improve both the functional and radiological outcome.
