经皮钢板固定治疗老年性肱骨近端3、4部分骨折

目的:探讨应用关节囊外间接复位经皮肱骨近端锁定钢板(LPHP)固定治疗老年性肱骨近端3、4部分骨折的疗效。方法:自2004年11月至2008年5月,应用关节囊外间接复位经皮LPHP固定技术治疗老年性肱骨近端3、4部分骨折24例,男6例,女18例;年龄55～88岁,平均70岁。手术采用肩外侧横切口经三角肌入路,关节囊外正骨手法将骨折复位后,将LPHP从切口内插入,然后远端做切口暴露钢板远端,近端4～6枚螺钉固定,远端3枚螺钉固定。术后2～3d患肩开始被动活动,2周后开始主动活动,3周后加强功能锻炼。应用Constant评分系统对肩关节进行功能评定。结果:所有骨折均愈合,平均愈合时间10.5周(8～21周),Constant评分49～92分,平均81.6分。其中优7例,良13例,中3例,差1例。结论:关节囊外间接复位结合LPHP内固定具有固定稳定、操作简单和血运破坏少等优点,能够有效治疗肱骨近端3、4部分骨折,特别适用老年骨质疏松患者。
