Subcapital femoral neck fracture after closed reduction and internal fixation of an intertrochanteric hip fracture: a case report and review of the literature.

A subcapital femoral neck fracture in a healed intertrochanteric fracture treated by an open reduction and internal fixation is a rare, but catastrophic, event. We present the case of an 86-year-old woman, a community ambulator, who sustained a displaced right intertrochanteric hip fracture during a fall. She was treated with closed reduction and internal fixation with a dynamic compression hip screw and side plate. Four months later, she was noted to have a displaced subcapital femoral neck fracture and underwent hip screw and side plate hardware removal and cemented bipolar hemiarthroplasty. Both postoperative recoveries were uncomplicated, and she was discharged to a rehabilitation facility able to ambulate with minimal assistance. This devastating complication in patients with osteoporosis may be prevented by deeper placement of the dynamic hip compression lag screw to within 5 mm to 8 mm of the subchondral bone, which may decrease the stress forces in the subcapital femoral neck.     

髋臼骨折的切开复位内固定治疗

髋臼骨折是常见的严重创伤之一。由于髋臼解剖位置深在,毗临关系复杂,手术难度大。既往多采用牵引等闭合整复方法疗效差。Judet等根据髋臼骨折的特点进行了细致的分类,并通过尸体解剖设计了手术入路,为髋臼骨折的切开复位内固定治疗创造了条件。近年来,国外髋臼骨折手术治疗的报道较多。我院自１９９６年３月～２０００年３月共手术治疗髋臼骨折４０例,临床效果满意。现报道如下。材料和方法一、一般资料本组４０例,男２８例,女１２例,年龄２１～６４岁,平均３９岁。创伤原因：交通事故２４例,坠落伤６例,砸伤１０例。髋臼骨折…

Four-part fracture after intrathoracic displacement of the humeral head: a case report and review of the literature

Displaced four-part fracture dislocation represents the highest risk of osteonecrosis of the humeral head due to a disruption of the blood supply. In a few cases, that dislocation can be intrathoracic which worsens prognosis with life-threatening injuries such as hemothorax or pneumothorax. This paper presents the case of a 77-year-old woman after having fallen down the stairs with an intrathoracic dislocation four-part fracture leaving the head in the thorax. We analyze mechanisms and review the literature in order to highlight this lesion and provide a take home message for the treatment.     

Open reduction and internal fixation of an acetabular fracture during pregnancy.

Fractures of the pelvis and acetabulum are common injuries in a mechanized society and frequently occur in the younger age groups. Commonly associated injuries such as hemorrhage, urethral tears, gastrointestinal injuries, and major vessel damage are well reported and well known to orthopaedic surgeons. Another less frequently reported complication of pelvic fractures is the potential association with pregnancy and subsequent childbirth. This problem was first described by Malgaigne in 1857 in his classic article on double vertical fractures of the pelvis, in which he described a 34-year-old woman with a pelvic fracture who subsequently died during childbirth. A review of the literature reveals numerous articles addressing potential problems with parturition subsequent to a pelvic fracture and several articles dealing with pelvic fractures occurring during pregnancy. The current literature on pelvic fractures during pregnancy, however, recommends only nonoperative treatment and, to our knowledge, there have been no reports of operative fixation during pregnancy. The purpose of this article is to report a case of an acetabular fracture in a pregnant woman treated with open reduction and internal fixation, who went on to carry a full-term baby and have a normal delivery.     

Open reduction and internal fixation in a one-stage anterior cruciate ligament reconstruction surgery for the treatment of tibial plateau fractures: A case report and literature review

Treatment of tibial plateau fractures associated with anterior cruciate ligament (ACL) injuries can be challenging. Maintaining the joint surface and axis are two main principles for the management of patients with tibial plateau fractures. Herein, we describe a patient with tibial plateau fracture of Schatzker type VI associated with complete ACL rupture. Although in a two-stage reconstruction surgery for treatment of its rupture seem to be accepted by most orthopaedic surgeons in cases of ACL injuries, we treated our patient with ORIF in a one-stage ACL reconstruction surgery. At the 1-year follow-up, the patient gained full range of motion and was functioning well. We reviewed the literature on performing ORIF in a one-stage ACL reconstruction for the treatment of tibial plateau fractures, which seemed to be a reasonable management approach that supported its use for the treatment of this patient.     

Open anterior fracture dislocation of the hip: a case report and review of literature

Open anterior fracture dislocation of the hip is an extremely rare injury and is the result of a violent trauma. Such a case is being reported in a 15-year-old female, who also had other adjacent bony injuries. In spite of early treatment, necrosis and infection could not be controlled, resulting in permanent disability in this young girl.     

Ureteral injury after percutaneous iliosacral fixation: a case report and literature review

We report a case of right ureter injury in an 11-year-old girl after a percutaneous iliosacral screwing with non-computer-assisted fluoroscopic guidance. The indication was a pelvic ring fracture, C1-1 in the Tile modified AO classification (J Am Acad Orthop Surg. 1996;4:143-151). The mechanism was a ski accident. A percutaneous iliosacral screwing was performed to stabilize the right iliac wing fracture. Twelve days after the initial trauma, a right ureter tear was highlighted, just opposite the fourth lumbar vertebra. Uneventful spontaneous healing of the ureteral injury site occurred following double J-stent catheterization.

Intradiploic hematoma after skull fracture: case report and literature review

BACKGROUND: Intradiploic hematoma of the skull was first reported in 1934. The pathogenesis of this lesion is unclear. It is a very rare benign reactive process occurring after minor head trauma, with only seven cases reported in the literature to date. CASE DESCRIPTION: A 3-year-old right hand dominant male presented with a non-tender parietal scalp swelling of a 1-year duration. History included a skull fracture located in the same region 24 months before presentation. Neurological examination was unremarkable. Pathological examination after curettage of the lesion revealed features consistent with organizing hematoma. CONCLUSIONS: The pathology of chronic diploic hematoma mimics aneurysmal bone cyst, giant cell tumor, giant cell reparative granuloma, fibrous dysplasia, eosinophilic granuloma, intradiploic epidermoid and dermoid cyst, cavernous hemangioma, circumscribed osteomyelitis, and tuberculous granuloma. Chronic diploic hematoma is a lesion that must be differentiated from various skull lesions both radiologically and histologically as it is amenable to treatment with a complete cure once excised.     

Brachial-plexus injury after clavicular fracture: case report and literature review

Brachial plexus injury is a rare complication of the fractured clavicle. The authors describe the second reported case of brachial plexus injury due to secondary fracture displacement. This case emphasizes the following points: the neurologic status of the arm after a fracture of the clavicle must be documented; fractures of the middle one-third of the clavicle are prone to displacement; patients should be advised to report immediately any new symptoms in the arm; when fracture displacement is the cause of brachial-plexus compression then a trial of conservative therapy is indicated; the prognosis for neurologic recovery after this injury is good.     

Open luxatio erecta: a case report and literature review

Luxatio erecta humeri is a rare clinical entity, comprising 0.5% of all glenohumeral dislocations. Even more uncommon, open luxatio erecta has only been described three times dating back to the 1800s. These cases report poor results including death from sepsis, avascular necrosis, and severely limited motion. We now report a fourth case of open luxatio erecta secondary to a work-related injury.
