Pearls and pitfalls of the surgical process of intramedullary nailing for intertrochanteric femur fractures are discussed, and common complications are shown. Evidence-based medical and anesthesiological management strategies during the pre-, peri-, and post-operative treatment period, as well as ...
Johnell O concluded that hip fracture is a significant cause of morbidity and mortality worldwide30. Our study demonstrated no statistically significant difference in one-year mortality between intramedullary nail and extramedullary fixations and other research has shown that the advanced age and medical ...
Questions/purposes We asked whether patients with simple two-part intertrochanteric fractures treated with IM nailing had (1) a lower reoperation rate and (2) less pain and better quality of life than patients treated with SHSs. Methods We used data from the Norwegian Hip Fracture Register on ...
We expect that intramedullary nail use will continue to increase as long as new surgeons are preferentially trained in intramedullary nailing procedures and surgeon reimbursement remains insulated from the treating hospital's burden of their choices for higher cost devices under the Medicare payment ...
Flexible intramedullary nailing (IMN) is a valuable tool in the treatment of femoral fractures in school-age children, whereas spica cast immobilization has been the standard of care for younger children. We compared these treatment modalities in a group of preschool-age children (four to five yea...
For intramedullary nailing, 6 screw penetrations, 3 rotator cuff injuries, 2 avascular necrosis and 2 fracture displacements were observed. For patients with conservative treatment, there were 2 shoulder stiffness, 1 avascular necrosis and 1 nonunion. Discussion The increasing proportion of elderly ...
Intramedullary nails are proven devices that provide a temporary fixation means to stabilize a fracture until the fracture heals. The nail is inserted in the marrow canal of the bone and is positioned to span the fracture. The nail is anchored within the bone via bone screws placed through alig...
