Detection of Infection Following an Open Tibial Fracture via Synovial Alpha-defensins

Journal of Limb Lengthening & Reconstruction
Fracture-related infections are challenging complications following the fixation of open fractures. Because of commonly used surgical approaches used for intramedullary nailing, the knee joint is also susceptible to infection following fixation, either ...

Periprosthetic fracture fixation in osteoporotic bone

, 2016
Fixation techniques of periprosthetic fractures are far from ideal although the number of this entity is rising. The presence of an intramedullary implant generates its own fracture characteristics since stiffness is altered along the bone shaft and ...

Intramedullary rod for fracture fixation of femoral shaft independent of ipsilateral femoral neck fracture fixation [PDF]

, 1995
A femoral intramedullary rod has a thin or reduced proximal segment so as to provide room for the use of femoral hip screws. Use of the rod for femoral shaft fixation permits subsequent independent treatment of an ipsilateral femoral hip fracture as an ...

Pulmonary effects of fixation of a fracture with a plate compared with intramedullary nailing - A canine model of fat embolism and fracture fixation

, 2020
UNLABELLED: Fat-embolism syndrome and pulmonary dysfunction may develop in multiply injured patients who have a fracture of a long bone. Although early fixation of a fracture is beneficial, intramedullary nailing may exacerbate pulmonary dysfunction by ...
