肱骨近端锁定接骨板治疗肱骨近端复杂性骨折的回顾性分析

目的探讨肱骨近端锁定接骨板（locking proximal humeral plate,LPHP）治疗肱骨近端复杂性骨折的临床疗效。方法对2005年1月至2008年10月在我院行LPHP治疗并获得随访的31例复杂性患者进行回顾性分析,从患者年龄、受伤机制、骨折类型、手术时机、骨折复位质量、术后康复方法、内固定取出时间对肩关节功能影响进行评估。结果31例患者获得10-56个月的随访,平均26．5个月。按Neer分型标准：三部分骨折13例,四部分骨折18例。肩关节功能按照constant评分,平均81．3分,其中优13例,良12例,可3例,差3例,优良率80．6％。按照Logistic回归分析,不同骨折类型、手术时机、复位质量及术后康复方法对肩关节功能产生不同影响,差异有统计学意义（P〈0．05）,而患者不同年龄、受伤机制和内固定取出时间对肩关节功能影响差异无统计学意义（P〉0．05）。结论LPHP治疗肱骨近端复杂骨折具有良好的疗效。在保护骨折端血运的前提下尽可能地解剖复位、妥善固定,合理处理大、小结节是获得良好手术疗效的关键。术后早期、积极、正确的康复锻炼是获得良好手术疗效的重要条件。     

Treatment of proximal humeral fractures with a new intramedullary nail

We have developed a new intramedullary nail (All-in-One Nail) that is specifically designed for elastic fixation of a surgical neck fracture of the humerus. This nail has three pins and a plate, and the pins become divergent as the nail is inserted into the marrow cavity through the deltoid tuberosity and then advanced to the humeral head. We reviewed 31 patients with an age range of 58–91 years (mean 75 years) who underwent surgery with this nail for A3.2 (two-part), B2.2 (three-part), or C2.1 (valgus-impacted) fractures of the proximal humerus. Bony union was obtained in 29 patients, and these patients had a Japanese Orthopaedic Association shoulder score of 60–92 (mean 78) in a follow-up examination performed 6–32 months (mean 13 months) postoperatively. The All-in-One Nail system is easy to use, provides an acceptable clinical outcome, and is a treatment option for unimpacted surgical neck fractures and valgus-impacted fractures of the humerus.

A new approach for the treatment of proximal humeral fractures using the TRIGEN proximal humeral nail

The optimal surgical treatment for displaced proximal humeral fractures continues to be controversial. One of the new treatment options is the minimally invasive intramedullary nail. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the functional outcome of using the TRIGEN proximal humeral nail (PHN) for the treatment of displaced proximal humeral fractures in elderly patients. From January 2004 to December 2008, 64 elderly patients (age > 60 years old) with displaced proximal humeral fractures were treated using TRIGEN PHN. A complete 12-month postoperative follow-up was available for 54 patients. The study cohort included two-part (29 shoulders), three-part (22 shoulders), and four-part (3 shoulders) Neer classification fracture types. The Constant-Murley score was used to assess functional outcome. Radiological outcomes were evaluated, and all complications were recorded. All fractures were united. The Constant-Murley score data indicated that the patients experienced improvement from 6 to 12 months postoperatively. The mean absolute Constant-Murley score on the injured side increased from 71.2 ± 11.2 points at 6 months to 82.4 ± 16.4 points at 12 months (P = 0.01). The mean neck-shaft angle 1 year after surgery was 125° ± 8.1° (95°–140°). Secondary complications were minimal and observed in only 6 of 54 patients. In conclusion, the TRIGEN intramedullary humeral nail is effective for the treatment of proximal humeral fractures.     

Meta-analysis comparing locking plate fixation with hemiarthroplasty for complex proximal humeral fractures

Background

There remains no consensus on the surgical treatment of complex proximal humeral fractures. In this meta-analysis, we pool available trials to compare the clinical outcomes of locking plate fixation and hemiarthroplasty for this injury.

Methods

A literature search between January 1990 and May 2012 in the main medical search engines (Pubmed, Medline, Embase search, and the Cochrane library) was included. We selected available trials that compared locking plate fixation and hemiarthroplasty in patients with complex proximal humeral fractures and that reported on functional outcomes, revisions, and method-related complications. The quality of the studies was assessed, and meta-analyses were performed with the Cochrane Collaboration’s REVMAN 5.0 software.

Results

A total of 567 patients from 9 trials were included in this meta-analysis (302 fractures treated with locking plate and 265 with hemiarthroplasty). In this comparison, we found that patients with locking plate fixation had better Constant–Murley score than with hemiarthroplasty, and hemiarthroplasty could reduce the rate of revisions and the method-related complications significantly.

Conclusions

Compared with hemiarthroplasty, patients with locking plate fixation could obtain more favorable functional outcomes, but technical detail was critical to minimize the risk of implant failure, avascular necrosis, and re-operation. As the possible significant bias and inconclusive evidence arising from the included trials, further randomized trials and observational studies should be recommended to support these finding.     

Comparative study between locking plates versus proximal humeral nail for the treatment of 2-part proximal humeral fractures

The aim of this study is to compare the functional and radiological results of Philos plate and NHP-T2 nail for the treatment of displaced 2-part proximal humeral fractures. Between May 2005 and June 2006, we operated 29 2-part humeral fractures. The selection of the implant was not randomized, but it was surgeon choice. There were 15 patients operated with the NHP-T2 nail (group A) and 14 patients with the Philos plate (group B). There were no statistical differences between the preoperative data of the two groups: mean age, sex distribution, level of activity, mechanism of injury, type of fracture, associated fractures, or the hematocrit levels. The patients were assed clinically and radiologically months after surgery. At 1-year follow-up, an independent evaluator additionally determined the Constant and Oxford scores. All fractures except one healed in the first 3?months. In group A, there was one delayed union that healed at 4?months. There were 2 malunion cases in each group. No case of avascular necrosis of the humeral head was observed. There were no statistical differences between the functional results of the implants. We had more patients who required blood transfusion in group B and more fractures of the entry point and implant removal in the group A. The consolidation rate and functional results are similar in both groups, with no statistical significance. The complications appeared seemed to be approach related and did not influence the final results. An accurate technique and sufficient experience are needed to achieve a correct reduction and fixation.

Internal fixation of proximal humeral fractures with a Polarus humeral nail

Background  Proximal humeral fractures occur frequently. Displaced or unstable fractures require open reduction and internal fixation. Our objective was to investigate the clinical and radiographic results of the internal fixation using Polarus humeral nails for fractures of the proximal humerus. Materials and methods  From January 2001 to April 2006, 54 shoulders of 54 patients (44 females, 10 males) underwent the intramedullary fixation using Polarus humeral nail. Mean age of the patients was 66-year-old (39–89) at the time of the surgery. Fracture-type by Neer classification was 2-part (29 shoulders), 3-part (22 shoulders) and 4-part (3 shoulders). The clinical and radiological outcomes were evaluated. Results  All the shoulders after osteosynthesis obtained bone-union. There was no osteonecrosis of the humeral head. Functional outcome measured by JOA score averaged 81 points. Totally 43 patients (79%) had satisfactory to excellent results. Varus deformity was seen in 4 shoulders (8%) and the deformity of the greater tuberosity in 4 (8%). Conclusion  The Polarus intramedullary humeral nail is effective for the treatment of proximal humeral fractures.     

Intramedullary nailing of humeral shaft fractures with a locking flexible nail

BACKGROUND: Studies on intramedullary nailing of humeral shaft fractures in the orthopaedic literature have shown mixed results. The purpose of this investigation was to document the clinical outcome and complications associated with the use of a new flexible, locking intramedullary nail that can be implanted in the humerus in either a retrograde or an antegrade manner without violating the rotator cuff mechanism or damaging the articular surface of the humeral head. METHODS: Fifty consecutive patients with fifty-one humeral shaft fractures were entered into our prospective clinical outcome study. The fracture was classified on the basis of the anatomic location and pattern. Implant positioning and fracture alignment were assessed postoperatively. Complications were recorded, and the time to union was measured. Shoulder function was evaluated with use of a combination of the Constant shoulder score, Short Form-36 (SF-36) clinical outcome data, range-of-motion measurements, and a subjective pain-rating scale. RESULTS: Forty-one patients with forty-two fractures had an adequate duration of clinical follow-up (a mean of twenty-two months) for analysis. Thirty-nine fractures healed, with a mean time to clinical union of twelve weeks (range, four to fifty weeks). Thirty-eight of the forty-two shoulders had minimal or no pain. Thirty-six shoulders had a full range of motion. The mean Constant shoulder score was 90 points. Four patients had five complications, which included two nonunions, two hardware failures, and one wound infection. All four patients had been managed with a 7.5-mm nail. A multivariate analysis demonstrated that an age of more than fifty years was associated with a lower Constant score and that the occurrence of a complication was associated with a lower physical component score on the SF-36. CONCLUSIONS: The flexible humeral nail allows both retrograde and antegrade implantation and static locking. Nail insertion can be accomplished without violating the rotator cuff or damaging the articular surface of the humeral head. Although the nail functioned well in most of our patients, the use of a small-diameter (7.5-mm) nail was associated with a higher complication rate. This implant should be used with caution in any patient with a medullary canal diameter of 相似文献

The treatment of dislocated humeral head fractures with a new proximal intramedullary nail system

A new proximal humerus nail (Sirus) for the treatment of proximal humerus fractures has become available. This paper presents the clinical and radiological outcome of the first collective study of 36 patients. Evaluation was performed prospectively. An antero-acromial approach was used for all patients. Three fixed-angle screws were inserted in a locking technique. Thirty-six fractures were fixed with the Sirus nail. These were dislocated 2- and 3-part fractures as described by Neer (J Bone Joint Surg 52:1077-1089). Outcomes were evaluated using the Constant score. Of the 36 patients evaluated 23 had sustained a 2-part fracture and 13 a 3-part fracture. The average age at surgery was 71.2 years (range, 30-93). In 75% of the cases, good to very good outcomes were achieved. Outcomes were satisfactory in 13.8% of the cases. Twenty-five fractures were treated in a closed technique. Average operating time was 41 minutes (range, 19-106) with a fluoroscopy time of 0.6 minutes (range, 0.4-2.6). Secondary fragment dislocation occurred in two cases. After 12.1 months the average Constant score was 79.2 (range, 46-100). Initial clinical experience with the Sirus nail indicates that the procedure is straightforward and has a low complication rate. Functional outcomes are predominantly good to very good. Large fragments of the greater tuberosity and 4-part fractures are beyond the scope of this application.

A new locking nail for proximal humerus fractures: the Telegraph nail, technique and preliminary results

We present a new nail, the telegraph nail, designed for the treatment of proximal fractures of the humerus. This nail has a new locking system providing a self-stabilization of the cancelous screws inserted in small fragments. We discuss the surgical technique and present preliminary results. The anterolateral approach and nail insertion through the medial and well vascularized part of the cuff is described for simple fractures. With the cup and ball technique, this nail can also be used for complex fractures of the proximal humerus with three or four fragments and major displacement. With this method, the nail is inserted before reduction and locked in the distal humerus before fixation of the head and tuberosities around the head once the targeting device removed. We report results for the first 64 nails inserted in our unit during the first year (1998-1999). Outcome was assessed at 11 months mean follow-up using the Constant score. Outcome was favorable, including in patients with complex fractures involving 3 or 4 separate displaced fragments. Besides providing an anatomically stable reconstruction, the telegraph nail has the advantage of allowing early mobilization of the shoulder joint. This method is a useful alternative to prosthetic reconstruction for traumatic fractures of the proximal humerus.
