Cyclic Stability of Locking Plate Augmented with Intramedullary Polymethyl Methacrylate (PMMA) Strut Fixation for Osteoporotic Humeral Fractures: A Biomechanical Study

Life, 2023
The locking plate may provide improved fixation in osteoporotic bone; however, it has been reported to fail due to varus collapse or screw perforation of the articular surface, especially in osteoporotic bone with medial cortex comminution.

Role of Intramedullary Fibular Fixation: Strategies for Addressing Complex Pilon Fractures [PDF]

Journal of Foot and Ankle Surgery (Asia Pacific)
Aim and background: Pilon fractures are usually the result of a high-energy mechanism and are widely considered more of a soft tissue injury secondary to the high rates of soft tissue complications that arise from them.

Fixation techniques in lower extremity correction osteotomies and fractures in mild-to-severe osteogenesis imperfecta patients: evaluation of the results and complications

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2023
Introduction Osteogenesis imperfecta is a genetic disorder leading to multiple fractures and deformities. Intramedullary rods have been used in the surgical treatment of osteogenesis imperfecta for decades.

Biomechanics of common fixation devices for first tarsometatarsal joint fusion—a comparative study with synthetic bones

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2018
Background Hallux valgus disease is a common deformity of the forefoot. There are currently more than 100 surgical approaches for operative treatment. Because hypermobility of the first tarsometatarsal joint is considered to be causal for hallux valgus ...

Intramedullary Compression Screw Fixation of Proximal Phalangeal Fractures: A Systematic Literature Review

, 2020
Proximal phalangeal fractures have traditionally been fixed via either Kirschner wires or dorsal plating. Concerns regarding lack of compression and potential for infection with wire fixation, and adhesion formation and stiffness with plating, have lead ...

Outcomes of intramedullary steinmann pin fixation for concurrent fibula fracture in comminuted tibia shaft or distal metaphyseal tibia fractures

Journal of Medical Sciences, 2021
Background: Fracture of the tibia shaft accounts for 17% of lower extremity fractures, with concurrent fibula fracture in about 78% of these cases. Intramedullary fixation for fibula fractures can restore fibula alignment and thus facilitate fracture ...
