Outcome of Hook Plate Fixation of Mallet Fractures

open access: yesThe Journal of Hand Surgery (Asian-Pacific Volume), 2017
Background: Hook plate fixation of closed mallet fractures was first described in 2007, but there has subsequently been a lack of studies examining the outcomes and complications of this technique. Methods: This paper aims to assess the clinical outcomes of hook plate fixation of closed mallet fractures by retrospectively reviewing 31 closed, bony ...

Subacromial morphometric assessment of the clavicle hook plate

Injury, 2010
Clavicle hook plates are an effective plate fixation alternative for distal clavicle fractures and severe acromioclavicular joint dislocations. However, post-operative complications associated with the subacromial portion of the hook include acromial osteolysis and subacromial impingement.

Biomechanical analysis of clavicle hook plate implantation with different hook angles in the acromioclavicular joint

International Orthopaedics, 2017
A clavicle hook plate is a simple and effective method for treating acromioclavicular dislocation and distal clavicle fractures. However, subacromial osteolysis and peri-implant fractures are complicated for surgeons to manage. This study uses finite element analysis (FEA) to investigate the post-implantation biomechanics of clavicle hook plates with ...

Numerical Simulation Analysis of Corrugated Plate With Hook

open access: yesVolume 6: Thermal-Hydraulics, 2017
Separation device is one of the important equipment in the steam generator, which reduce the humidity, and it is a key device of nuclear plant which can guarantee the saturated steam to the steam turbine to provide clean. In nuclear power plant, the nuclear steam turbine uses saturated steam directly, so the separation system in steam generator ...

Hook plating in patella fractures

Injury, 2019
Tension band wiring is considered the standard treatment for patella fractures. However, it is limited for fractures with marginal involvement, comminution, and osteoporotic bone. Our experience indicates that these limitations can be overcome with the hook plate.

Hamate Hook Nonunion Treated With a Hook Plate

Techniques in Hand & Upper Extremity Surgery, 2012
Despite of its rarity, hamate hook nonunion can cause several complications like tendon rupture or loss of grip strength. Admitted treatments in the literature are excision of the bone fragment or its open reduction and internal fixation. We report a clinical case of a high-level baseball player with hamate hook nonunion treated with an original ...

The Clavicular Hook Plate: Consequences in Three Cases

European Journal of Trauma and Emergency Surgery, 2007
The small fragment AO clavicular hook plate is indicated for certain fractures of the lateral end of clavicle and for symptomatic acromio-clavicular joint dislocations where there is rupture of the stabilizing ligaments. The complex anatomy and biomechanics of the acromio-clavicular joint can lead to complications that result in damage to the joint ...

Posterior Stabilization of the Cervical Spine with Hook Plates

Spine, 1991
Hook-plate fixation is designed for posterior cervical stabilization from C2 to C7. Indications remain the same as for standard posterior fixations. The prime indications are discoligamentous injuries. The plates are hooked under the lower laminas and attached to the articular masses of the upper vertebra by oblique screws. An H-graft is placed between

The Versatile Hook Plate in Avulsion Fractures of the Hand

Annals of Plastic Surgery, 2017
Avulsion fractures can pose technical difficulties for surgical fixation. The fragments are often small and around finger joints with access being difficult due to attachment of ligaments or tendons. Traditionally, these have been treated using K wires, lag screws, or pullout sutures.Hook plates were originally described for operative management of ...
