    Articles on Femoral Fractures

    1. Long-term outcomes of epiphyseal preservation and reconstruction with inactivated bone for distal femoral osteosarcoma of children.
      Xiu-chun XC Yu, Ming M Xu, ... Ruo-xian RX Song

      Orthop Surg 4(1):21-7 (2012) PMID 22290815

      I on MRI classification (one with pathological fracture), and two type II. The therapeutic regime was two cycles of preoperative chemotherapy, surgery and six cycles of postoperative chemotherapy. Five patients were followed up for 60-126 months (mean 82 months). No local tumor recur...
    2. A comparative study of ipsilateral intertrochanteric and femoral shaft fractures treated with long proximal femoral nail antirotation or pla...
      Wen-yue WY Wang, Tian-fu TF Yang, ... Li-ming LM Xie

      Orthop Surg 4(1):41-6 (2012) PMID 22290818

      I contained 13 patients who were treated with dynamic hip screws (DHS) combined with compression plate fixation. The 10 patients in Group II were treated with PFNA-long. The average follow-up was 17.8 and 16.8 months for Groups I and II, respectively. The average union time for inter...
    3. Leg length discrepancy following femoral shaft fracture in children: clinical considerations and recommendations.
      Hélène H Hariga, Maryline M Mousny, and Pierre-Louis PL Docquier

      Acta Orthop Belg 77(6):782-7 (2011) PMID 22308624

      Femoral shaft fracture in children is a frequently encountered problem. Residual leg length discrepancy persisting at skeletal maturity is the most common complication. In this study, a positive correlation was found between the amount of bone fragments overlap and the overgrowth phe...
    4. Risk of periprosthetic femur fracture after anterior cortical bone windowing: a mechanical analysis of short versus long cemented stems in p...
      Lance J LJ Wilson, Corey J CJ Richards, ... Ross W RW Crawford

      Acta Orthop 82(6):674-8 (2011) PMID 22066561

      We wanted to determine whether the use of long, bridging, cemented femoral stems is necessary to reduce the risk of postoperative periprosthetic fractures after using an anterior cortical bone window. 66 fresh pig femurs underwent mechanical testing. Steel rods were implanted at 3 lo...

    5. Intrapelvic migration of a lag screw from a cephalomedullary femoral nail: a case report.
      S J SJ Robinson, J R JR Fountain, ... B H BH Pennie

      Injury 42(11):1384-6 (2011) PMID 21334619

    6. Atypical femoral fractures and bone turnover.
      Sophie A SA Jamal, Natalie N Dion, and Louis-Georges LG Ste-Marie

      N Engl J Med 365(13):1261-2 (2011) PMID 21991914

    7. Histomorphometric analysis of subchondral bone of the femoral head in osteoarthritis and osteoporosis.
      Marin M Marinović, Edo E Bazdulj, ... Dragica D Bobinac

      Coll Antropol (2011) PMID 22220398

      We have investigated this relationship using histomorphometric study of femoral head subchondral bone. We studied 74 subjects with hip fracture (74% females) and 24 subjects with osteoarthritis (45% females). By histomorphometric analysis of parafined sections, we analysed followed subhondral trabec...
    8. Intramedullary nailing of pediatric femoral shaft fracture.
      Harish S HS Hosalkar, Nirav K NK Pandya, ... Martin J MJ Herman

      J Am Acad Orthop Surg 19(8):472-81 (2011) PMID 21807915

      Intramedullary nail fixation of pediatric long bone fracture, particularly femoral shaft fracture, has revolutionized the care and outcome of these complex injuries. Nailing is associated with a high rate of union and a low rate of complications. Improved understanding of proximal fe...
    9. An evaluation of flexible intramedullary nail fixation in femoral shaft fractures in paediatric age group.
      Sanjay S Kumar, Sandip Kumar SK Roy, ... Anant Kumar AK Garg

      J Indian Med Assoc 109(6):416-7, 425 (2011) PMID 22315772

      We did not have any non-union, refracture, limb length discrepancy or any major infection. The result demonstrates 100% union rate irrespective of the age, weight and height of the patient. Regardless of the site of fracture and their pattern, it united every time with elastic nail fixation. We did...
    10. Characterization and biodistribution of human mesenchymal stem cells transduced with lentiviral-mediated BMP2.
      Kyoung Suk KS Choi, Soon Young SY Ahn, ... Chul-Joo CJ Lim

      Arch Pharm Res 34(4):599-606 (2011) PMID 21544725

      We investigated the effects of bone morphogenetic protein 2 (BMP2) gene transfer on the characteristics and biodistribution of human MSCs. Lentiviral-mediated BMP2 transduction to MSCs enhanced osteocyte differentiation and decreased adipocyte differentiation. Although there is no significant differ...
