Abstract:
Objective To investigate clinical characteristics and treatment of Hoffa fractures.Methods Twenty patients with Hoffa fracture (24 condyles) were treated from January 2002 to April 2009.They were 14 men (18 condyles) and 6 women (6 condyles), aged from 20 to 70 years (average, 43. 3 years).There were 15 fractures of medial femoral condyle and 9 ones of lateral femoral condyle. Two rare cases were fractures of unilateral bi-condyles and one rare case fractures of unilateral bi-condyles plus contralateral single condyle. Four fractured condyles were old due to implant failure and 20 were fresh. According to the modified Letenneur's classification, there were 6 condyles of type Ⅰ, 4 condyles of type Ⅱ and 14 condyles of type Ⅲ.Fifteen condyles were fixed anteroposteriorly with 2 to 4 cancellous or canulated screws, 8 condyles were fixed posteroanteriorly with 2 to 4 screws, and one condyle was fixed with K wires. Five condyles were fixed with screws plus lateral supporting plates, and 3 condyles with screws plus posterior anti-sliding plates. Results All the patients were followed up for an average of 14. 4 months (6 to 84 months) . All the 24 condyles obtained bony union after an average of 18. 6 weeks (from 12 to 44 weeks). There was no infection, implant failure, nonunion or bone necrosis. According to Letenneur's functional assessment system, 16 condyles were excellent, 6 good and 2 poor, with a good-to-excellent rate of 91. 7%. Conclusions All Hoffa fractures should be treated with screws. Screw diameter, fixation direction and surgical incision should depend on facture type and size of fracture block. Unstable Hoffa fractures should be treated with screws combined with lateral supporting plates or posterior anti-sliding plates.  相似文献

Unicondylar femoral fractures account for 0.65% of all femoral fractures; they have not been studied extensively in the orthopedic literature. Usually occurring following sports trauma or traffic accidents, these fractures involve the lateral condyle three times more frequently than the medial condyle. Conservative or surgical treatment has been advocated, depending on the fracture type. From 1986 to 1999, 19 patients with unicondylar femoral fractures were surgically treated at our institution: there were 15 males and 4 females, aged 36.2 years on average. According to the AO-ASIF classification, there were 7 B1, 6 B2 and 6 B3 fractures. We used Herbert screws in six cases, Barr screws together with cancellous screws in two, cannulated screws in five, cancellous screws alone in four, a compression screw and plate in one and a T-plate in one. In the same period of time, four patients were treated conservatively with a cast. Sixteen patients treated surgically were evaluated with a mean follow-up of 60 months, using Shatzker and Lambert's criteria: six results were rated as excellent, five good, four fair and one poor, while conservative treatment gave three fair and one poor results. In conclusion, we think that open reduction and internal fixation are essential in the treatment of such fractures.  相似文献

Abstract:
Objective To compare the clinical outcomes of surgical and non-surgical treatment of ulnar styloid fractures. Methods There were 62 patients (64 sides) that were treated with Kirschner wire and tension band fixation in the surgical group. They were follow-up postoperatively for 2 to 18 months, with an average of 8 months. Seventy patients (72 sides) were non-surgically treated and follow-up for 1.5 to 24 months with an average of 10 months. Gartland and Werley scoring system of the AO Foundation was applied to evaluate the results. Fracture healing was evaluated by X-ray films. Comparison was made between the surgical and nonsurgical groups. Results Results in the surgical group were graded as excellent in 57 cases, good in 2 cases,fair in 2 cases and poor in 1 case. The overall satisfactory rate was 95.2%. X-rays showed that bone union was obtained in all the patients three months after the surgery. Results in the non-surgical group were graded as excellent in 10 cases, good in 15 cases, fair in 18 cases and poor in 27 cases. The overall satisfactory rate was 35.7%. X-rays showed bone union in only 9 cases 1.5 months after the injury, fracture malunion in 32 cases 6 months after the injury, and nonunion in 29 cases even 12 months after the injury. The differences between the two groups were statistically significant. Conclusion From the aspects of wrist function and fracture healing,surgical treatment of ulnar styloid fractures is superior to non-surgical treatment.  相似文献

Fourty-two patients (34 males and 8 female) with traumatic spondylolisthesis of the axis were studied in a retrospective review There were 20 stable and 22 unstable fractures. The 22 unstable fractures were treated surgically: 16 anterior interbody fusion (10 non-plated and 6 plated), 4 pedicle screw fixation for osteosynthesis of the fractured pedicles, and 2 posterior wire fixation for flexion and axial load injury. For all non-surgical cases, head halter tractions for 1 to 8 weeks was prescribed and a cervical orthosis was worn for an additional 6 to 18 weeks. The surgical cases underwent 5 to 7 days of preoperative and 1 to 4 weeks of post-operative head halter traction. In all cases pedicle fractures united after 13 weeks on average in group treated conservatively, 12 weeks (11 to 13 weeks) in the posterior wiring group, 8 weeks (7 to 9 weeks) in the group in which pedicle screws were used, and 11 weeks (9 to 15 weeks) in the anterior fusion group (13 weeks in non-plated, and 8 weeks in plated). There were no differences in patterns of anterior fusion between those in the non-plated and plated groups. There were no non-unions of fractured pedicles and there was no late instability of the C2-C3 or neurological complications. In 2 cases in the posterior surgery group, there was mild nuchal discomfort and some rigidity for a short while postoperatively. Final outcomes were good in all cases.  相似文献

Abstract

Context

The complex anatomy and the importance of ligaments in providing stability at the upper cervical spine region (O–C1–C2) require the use of many imaging modalities to evaluate upper cervical injuries (UCI). While separate classifications have been developed for distinct injuries, a more practical treatment algorithm can be derived from the injury pattern in UCI.

Objective

To propose a practical treatment algorithm to guide treatment based on injuries characteristic of UCI.

Methods

A literature review was performed on the Pubmed database using the following keywords: (1) “occipital condyle injury”; (2) “craniocervical dislocation or atlanto-occipital dislocation or craniocervical dislocation”; (3) “atlas fractures”; and (4) “axis fractures”. Just articles containing the diagnosis, classification, and treatment of specific UCI were included. The data obtained were analyzed by the authors, dividing the UCI into two groups: Group 1 – patients with clear ligamentous injury and Group 2 – patients with fractures without ligament disruption.

Results

Injuries with ligamentous disruption, suggesting surgical treatment, include: atlanto-occipital dislocation, mid-substance transverse ligament injury, and C1–2 and C2–3 ligamentous injuries. In contrast, condyle, atlas, and axis fractures without significant displacement/misalignment can be initially treated using external orthoses. Odontoid fractures with risk factors for non-union are an exception in Group 2 once they are better treated surgically. Patients with neurological deficits may have more unstable injuries.

Conclusions

Ascertaining the status of relevant ligamentous structures, fracture patterns and alignment are important in determining surgical compared with non-surgical treatment for patients with UCI.  相似文献

This study compared surgical and non-surgical treatment of 46 calcaneal fractures in children aged 3-17 years. Patients were divided into: Group A ranging 3-14 years and Group B 15-17 years, and classified according to surgical or non-surgical treatment. Mean follow-up was 22.8 years. Extra-articular fractures were treated non-surgically and all results were satisfactory. Results of articular fractures in Group A were satisfactory regardless of the type of treatment. Articular fractures surgically treated in group B were satisfactory, and those non-surgically treated were mainly poor. Extra-articular fractures can be treated non-surgically. Articular fractures in skeletally immature children can be treated non-surgically; conversely, those in children with skeletal maturity must be treated surgically.  相似文献

IntroductionWith the aging of the population the rate of fragility hip fractures increases. While medical recommendations are for hasten surgical treatment, for some older patients burdened with severe comorbidities, this might be risky.AimsTo compare the outcomes of patients treated non-surgically to those of the most fragile patients treated surgically.Patients and methodsA retrospective cohort study, of individuals aged ≥65 yearswho presented with fragility hip fractures between 01.01.2011-30.06.2016, to a primary trauma center. Patients treated surgically were stratified according to their age-adjusted Charlsons' comorbidity index (ACCI) score. Patients in the upper third of ACCI score, representing the more fragile population, were compared to patients treated non-surgically.Results847 patients presented with fragility fractures. 94 (11%) were treated non-surgically and 753 (89%) underwent surgery. Medical reasons were the leading cause for non-surgical treatment (61.7%). Surgically-treated patients were stratified according to their ACCI and 114 patients with ACCI > 9 were chosen for comparison. While both groups were comparable in terms of age, the non-surgical treatment group had more female patients (p. = 0.026) and a smaller proportion of independent walkers (p < 0.001). The ACCI was higher for the surgical treatment group (p < 0.001). In-hospital mortality was similar (14.9% and 18.1% for the operative and non-surgical groups respectively, P. = 0.575). However, one-year mortality was significantly higher for the non-surgical group (48.2% vs. 67.0%, P. = 0.005). The rates of in-hospital complications and 1-year readmissions were similar.ConclusionsOperative treatment for fragility hip fracture reduces long-term mortality rates even in the more fragile patients, compared to non-surgical treatment.  相似文献

The treatment of lateral condyle fractures in children remains controversial. This study investigates whether minimally displaced lateral condyle fractures should be treated surgically and compares different techniques of operative management. The authors retrospectively reviewed medical charts and radiographs of 97 children from two international centers whose therapeutic modalities differed, noting demographic data, fracture features, treatment modalities, complications, and clinical and radiographic results. Long-arm immobilization alone resulted in additional fracture displacement and a higher number of nonunions than did surgical management. The authors conclude that displaced fractures should be fixed surgically with two smooth or threaded Kirschner wires; they can pass through the ossific nucleus of the capitellum if necessary, but they must engage the far cortex. If patients are likely to be noncompliant with treatment, the wires should be buried under the skin to avoid the risk of infection, but this procedure necessitates a second surgery for removal of fixation.  相似文献
