Elastic Nailing of Clavicle Percutaneous elastic intramedullary nailing of the clavicle is a safe, reliable method for fixation of displaced midshaft clavicle fractures. It provides comparable results with standard plating methods, but is less invasive and allows rapid healing by callus formation.

Ingrown nail Ingrown nail. Onychocryptosis (from Greek ὄνυξ onyx nail + κρυπτός kryptos hidden), also known as an ingrown toenail, or unguis incarnates, is a common form of nail disease. It is an often painful condition in which the nail grows so that it cuts into one or both sides of the paronychium or nail bed.

- Treatment options for acute paronychia include warm compresses; topical antibiotics, with or without corticosteroids; oral antibiotics; or surgical incision and drainage for more severe cases. Chronic paronychia is a multifactorial inflammatory reaction of the proximal nail fold to irritants and allergens.

Femural Shaft Fracture - Im Rod Removal???? (Page 1) Intramedullary rods/nails can be left in place for the life of the patient, without any problems. IM nails have been in use since WWII. The femur will heal very nicely with an IM nail in place. It is because of the IM nail that you did not have to spend 3 to 4 months flat on your back in a orthopedic traction unit.

Fixing Hip Fractures With a short intramedullary hip screw, the nail does not extend down the full shaft of the femur. Cross-locking of the nail is through a jig, which prevents rotation of the nail within the femur. Short intramedullary hip screws can create a stress riser in the bone at the distal screw.

External Fixators Next Page >>. With external fixation, pins are inserted through the skin into the bone and held in place by an external frame. The usual indications are open fractures such as a tibia fracture which requires dressings or attention to a wound or flap. It can also be used with closed fractures e.g. unstable radius fracture.

- Open reduction and screw fixation is the current standard treatment for displaced injuries of the ankle. syndesmosis.(1-4) Despite reduction and stable internal fixation, however, these injuries do not uniformly. have excellent outcomes. There might be several reasons for that, including the mechanism of injury, method of fixation and quality of the reduction. The syndesmosis is disrupted when an external rotation torque is applied to the ankle. In most cases, a. pronation/external rotation injury occurs when an external rotation force is applied to the leg with the foot. firmly planted.

- Lundy provides a review article on the evaluation and treatment of subtrochanteric femur fractures. He states that these fractures can be effectively stabilized with 95° plates, femoral reconstruction nails, or trochanteric femoral nails with interlocking options.hey state that the mismatch in femoral bow between the bone and the implant is a contributing factor to distal femoral anterior cortex penetration in intramedullary nailing of subtrochanteric fractures.Simonian et al present 4 iatrogenic femoral neck fractures that occured during a series of 315 femoral nails.

- The placement of calcar screws in the angular stable plate fixation of proximal humeral fractures is associated with less secondary loss of reduction by providing inferomedial support. An increased risk for cut-out, delayed union or axillary nerve lesion could not be shown.

- External fixation is most frequently considered to be a provisional method of fixation for fractures with extensive soft tissue damage, such as open fractures, fractures in the unstable polytrauma patient, and fractures with a popliteal artery injury.

Transgluteal Approach for Percutaneous Drainage of Deep Pelvic Abscesses: 154 Cases Although the transgluteal approach is a useful alternative for percutaneous drainage of pelvic abscesses, few evaluations of this approach have appeared in the literature. The purpose of this study was to assess the effectiveness of this approach by reviewing our experience.

Reader Question: External Fixator Reader Question: External Fixator. Question: How should I code for the application of a uniplanar external fixator for a comminuted, intra-articular distal radius fracture in which a supplemental K-wire fixation was also used? In addition, an open bone grafting was performed through a separate incision with autologous cancellous bone from a bone bank.

Current Concepts in IM Nailing of Femoral Shaft fractures Intramedullary (IM) nailing is one of the preferred methods for treatment of femoral diaphyseal fractures. Successful intramedullary nailing results in a short hospital stay, a rapid return of motion in all joints, prompt return to walking, and a relatively short total disability time. HISTORY & EVOLUTION.
