Flexible versus standard intramedullary rod in posterior stabilized primary total knee arthroplasty: protocol for a randomized controlled trial

Journal of Orthopaedic Surgery and Research, 2020
Background In total knee arthroplasty (TKA) a flexible intramedullary rod can be used to account for sagittal bowing of the distal femur. Although patients report better post-operative functional outcome when the flexible rod was used, it is unknown how ...

The role of expanding intramedullary rods in osteogenesis imperfecta [PDF]

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1989
We report the results of using 83 expanding intramedullary rods in 24 children with osteogenesis imperfecta after a mean follow-up of five years three months. In all, 62% of the rods have expanded after one primary operation. Thirty-four additional operations were necessary; 11 for the correction of rotation or angulation deformities and 23 for ...

Knee Arthrodesis With an Intramedullary Antegrade Rod as a Salvage Procedure for the Chronically Infected Total Knee Arthroplasty

Journal of the American Academy of Orthopaedic Surgeons. Global research & reviews, 2020
Introduction: Infection is a challenging complication after total knee arthroplasty (TKA) that is often treatable. However, recurrent infection may require resection, amputation, or arthrodesis.

Closed intramedullary rodding for osteogenesis imperfecta [PDF]

The Journal of Bone and Joint Surgery. British volume, 1984
Three cases of severe osteogenesis imperfecta are reported. Each was treated by closed intramedullary rodding, combined with osteoclasis to correct deformity. Operation was performed within a few months of birth. Both tibiae and both femora were stabilised in one operation, using x-ray image intensification to monitor placement of the rods.

A Multicenter Study of Intramedullary Rodding in Osteogenesis Imperfecta

JBJS Open Access, 2020
Background: Osteogenesis imperfecta (OI), a heritable connective tissue disorder with wide clinical variability, predisposes to recurrent fractures and bone deformity. Management requires a multidisciplinary approach in which intramedullary rodding plays an important role, especially for moderate and severe forms.
