Journal of Trauma (69)5 2010
Abstract
The aim of this study was to determine the difference in displacement of a newly designed intramedullary olecranon fracture fixation device compared with multifilament tension band wiring after 4 cycles and 300 cycles of dynamic continuous loading.
In eight pairs of fresh-frozen cadaver ulnae, obliq...

Hand Clinics (26)3 2010
Abstract
Plate fixation remains the primary surgical treatment option for most adult forearm fractures. However, intramedullary nailing can be successful and might be preferable in cases of massive soft-tissue injury and burns, certain segmental fractures, pathologic fractures, and skeletally immature adoles...

Abstract
Our center has operatively managed DFFx with increased frequency over the past decade. IMN had a complication rate of 14.6% and was frequently not "minimally invasive." An open fracture site delayed healing. Compartment syndrome was more frequent when IMN was used the day of injury and older childre...

Abstract
Thirteen patients (14 elbows) were reviewed at a mean follow-up of 63 months, four patients at a mean follow-up of 11 month (range, 6 to 18 months), and five patients were lost to follow-up. All patients had stable elbow joint and in 90% of the cases, patients reported mild or no elbow pain. The arc...

We investigated a minimally invasive anterior approach to reduce and fix coronoid fractures with a screw in eight consecutive patients and evaluated seven patients at a minimum of 1 year (mean, 78 weeks; range, 61-89 weeks). It was only possible to repair seven of eight coronoid fractures. The avera...

Pediatric Emergency Care (26)2 2010
Abstract
The unlikely event of long-term complications in some pediatric fractures, such as midclavicular fractures, has allowed for management of these injuries with interventions that support the injured extremity rather than immobilize it while healing occurs. However, there is currently a growing body of...

Abstract
Bone transport osteogenesis, as described by Ilizarov, has been used to resolve segmental bone defects in both human and veterinary patients. These defects are created when a large osseous tumour, sequestrum, or non-union fracture is resected. This report documents two cases in which the principle o...

The mean angulation of fractures prior to manipulation was 21.5+/-10.1 degrees, it decreased to 2.4+/-4.8 degrees following manipulation. Remanipulation was required in 11 fractures (9.8%) based on clinical and radiographic findings of redisplacement. Of these, eight fractures (8.3%) were incomplete...

Abstract
Fracture-dislocations of the elbow remain among the most difficult injuries to manage. Historically, the combination of an elbow dislocation, a radial head fracture, and a coronoid process fracture has had a consistently poor outcome; for this reason, it is called the terrible triad. An elbow disloc...
