Functional And Radiological Results

Introduction:Cephalomedullary nails are preferred over intramedullary nails for internal fixation of unstable intertrochanteric fractures; however, they are associated with complications as they do not match the anatomy of the proximal femur to a great extent. Aim: To investigate functional and radiological results of Zimmer natural nails in the management of unstable intertrochanteric fractures. Materials and Methods: A longitudinal prospective study of 99 patients with unstable intertrochanteric fractures was carried out. All patients underwent closed reduction and internal fixation with 180 mm short Zimmer natural nails. Follow-up visits were scheduled for six weeks, three months, and six months for radiological healing and mobility measurements using RUSH and Parker scores, respectively. Statistical analysis was performed using Chi-square and ANOVA. Results: Mean age of patients was 69.77±11.47 years with a male to female ratio of 1:1. A majority of patients had co-morbidities like diabetes mellitus and hypertension. Average duration of surgery was 58.38 minutes with no statistically significant difference among the different categories of unstable intertrochanteric fractures. Fixation of fractures with Zimmer natural nails increased Parker score and RUSH score consistently with each follow-up visit (p<0.05). There were no postoperative complications in 93.94% cases. Conclusion: This study emphasised good functional and radiological results of Zimmer natural nails in the treatment of unstable intertrochanteric fractures.

Abstract Aim Mega-prosthetic reconstruction is the most common treatment method for massive osteoarticular defects caused by tumor resection around the knee. The new implant is a highly modular rotational-hinged megaprosthesis system with a distinct pentagonal stem geometry and variable implantation options. The aim of this study is to present the mid-term implant survival characteristics, functional and radiological results and mechanical complication profile of the new megaprosthesis. Methods One hundred and one mega-prosthetic knee reconstruction procedures in 90 patients (M/F: 51/39) utilizing the new implant system were retrospectively analyzed. In 68 patients, the megaprosthesis was used for primary reconstruction following tumor resection while it was used for revision of other implants in 22. The mean age was 28.5 (7–66) years and the mean follow-up was 59.2 (24–124) months. The most common primary pathology was osteosarcoma with 63–70% patients, the most common anatomical site of involvement was the distal femur with 56–62% patients. Results Henderson Type 2 failure (aseptic loosening) was seen in only 2–2.2% patients while Type 3 (structural failure) was seen in 29–32.2% Although the 5-year anchorage survival rate was 94.3%, overall mechanical implant survival was 76.1% at 5 years due to a relatively high failure rate in the first-generation hinge mechanism of the implant. The 5-year hinge survival rate demonstrated a significant improvement rate from 61.7% to 87.2% between the first and second generations of the implant (p = 0.027). The mean MSTS score was 24 out of 30 (14–29). The mean cumulative ISOLS radiographic score for index megaprosthesis operations was 19.7 (12–24), which corresponded to excellent outcome. Conclusion The new megaprosthesis system is a reliable choice for the reconstruction of tumor-related massive osteoarticular defects around the knee. Although long-term follow-up is necessary for a definitive evaluation of the implant's survival characteristics, midterm follow-up yields exceptional anchorage properties related to pentagonal stem geometry with very good functional outcomes.

AbstractThe aim of the present study was to present clinical and radiological outcome of a hip fracture-dislocation of the femoral head treated with biomimetic osteochondral scaffold.An 18-year-old male was admitted to the hospital after a motorcycle-accident. He presented with an obturator hip dislocation with a type IVA femoral head fracture according to Brumback classification system. The patient underwent surgery 5 days after accident. The largest osteochondral fragment was reduced and stabilized with 2 screws, and the small fragments were removed. The residual osteochondral area was replaced by a biomimetic nanostructured osteochondral scaffold. At 1-year follow-up the patient did not complain of hip pain and could walk without limp. At 2-year follow-up he was able to run with no pain and he returned to practice sports. Repeated radiographs and magnetic resonance imaging studies of the hip showed no signs of osteoarthritis or evidence of avascular necrosis. A hyaline-like signal on the surface of the scaffold was observed with restoration of the articular surface and progressive decrease of the subchondral edema.The results of the present study showed that the biomimetic nanostructured osteochondral scaffold could be a promising and safe option for the treatment of traumatic osteochondral lesions of the femoral head.Study Design: Case report.

Abstract Background Isolated fractures of the ulnar head are rare. Only few cases have been reported in literature. Case Description We report a case of a 16-year-old student who was treated for an ulnar styloid fracture conservatively. An associated displaced intraarticular fracture of the ulnar head has been overlooked. He presented late in our clinic with a symptomatic nascent malunion of the ulnar head fracture. A corrective osteotomy by a palmar approach was performed. Fixation by screws was used with an excellent result at 7-year follow-up. Literature Review The rare cases of isolated ulnar head fractures reported in literature were treated by open reduction and internal fixation only in case of fracture dislocation. Clinical Relevance The authors highlight the fact that even a nascent malunion of an isolated intraarticular fracture of the ulnar head may be treated successfully by open reduction and internal fixation.

Fracture Dislocations

We reviewed 20 cases of chronic dorsal fracture-dislocation of the proximal interphalangeal joint, with a mean follow-up period of 74 months. In patients without comminuted palmar fragments, open reduction and internal fixation or osteotomy of the malunited fragment provided good results. In treating patients with damaged articular cartilage or with comminuted palmar fragments by palmar plate arthroplasty, poor results were obtained because of secondary osteoarthritic changes.

Hand Radiographs

Seventeen patients who had suffered a Bennett’s fracture-dislocation have been reviewed with an average follow up of 26 years. All were treated conservatively. At review, only seven patients had symptoms, but all had a decreased range of movement and grip strength. Twelve had a characteristic deformity in the hand. Radiographs showed persistent subluxation of the first carpo-metacarpal joint and marked degenerative changes. We suggest that, in the light of the poor long-term outcome, this injury should not be managed conservatively but by some operative means.

Background: The purpose of this study was to identify the risk factors for posttraumatic osteoarthritis (OA) after surgery for ankle fractures in patients aged ≤50 years. Methods: We performed a retrospective review of consecutive patients who underwent surgery for ankle fractures and were followed up for a minimum period of 5 years. The patients were assigned to 2 groups according to the presence of advanced OA at the last follow-up. Binary logistic regression was used to model the correlation between risk factors and OA. Functional outcomes were assessed using the Foot and Ankle Outcome Score. Results: The data of 332 patients who met the inclusion criteria were included in the analysis. The overall rate of posttraumatic arthritis was 27.7% (nonarthritis group: 240 patients, arthritis group: 92 patients). The arthritic change was significantly affected by BMI (95% confidence interval [CI] 1.29-19.76; adjusted odds ratio [OR] ≥ 30, 6.56), fracture-dislocation injury (CI 1.66-11.57; adjusted OR, 4.06), posterior malleolus (PM) fracture (CI 1.92-12.73, adjusted OR > 25% of the articular surface, 5.72), and postoperative articular incongruence (CI 1.52-18.10; adjusted OR, 7.21). The mean scores of the arthritis group were lower than those in the nonarthritis group ( P < .05). Conclusion: Obesity, fracture-dislocation injury, concomitant large PM fracture, and articular incongruence were risk factors of posttraumatic OA after surgery for ankle fractures. Surgeons should be aware that accurate reduction is critical in patients with ankle fractures with associated large PM fractures, especially those with obesity or severe initial injuries such as fracture-dislocation. Level of Evidence: Level III, case control study.
