Treatment of unstable scaphoid waist nonunion with cancellous bone grafts and cannulated screw or Kirschner wire fixation

Journal of Plastic Surgery and Hand Surgery, 2020
We compared two methods of fixation for unstable scaphoid waist nonunions regarding rate of scaphoid union, union time, deformity correction, clinical outcomes (pain, range of motion, and grip strength), and QuickDASH scores.

UK DRAFFT : a randomised controlled trial of percutaneous fixation with kirschner wires versus volar locking-plate fixation in the treatment of adult patients with a dorsally displaced fracture of the distal radius [PDF]

, 2011
Background: Fractures of the distal radius are extremely common injuries in adults. However, the optimal management remains controversial. In general, fractures of the distal radius are treated non-operatively if the bone fragments can be held in ...

Principles of Kirschner fixation in supracondylar humeral fractures in children [PDF]

, 2023
Introduction: Supracondylar humeral fractures in children are frequent injuries. The treatment of these injuries is generally a surgical one through closed or open reduction and placement of Kirschner wires.

Comparison of clinical and radiological results of fixation methods with retrograde intramedullary Kirschner wire and plate-screw in extra-articular metacarpal fractures

Joint Diseases and Related Surgery, 2021
Objectives In this study, we aimed to compare clinical and radiographic outcomes of retrograde intramedullary Kirschner-wire (K-wire) fixation with those of plate-screw (PS) fixation.

Cannulated screw versus Kirschner-wire fixation for Milch II lateral condyle fractures in a paediatric sawbone model: a biomechanical comparison

Journal of Children's Orthopaedics, 2018
Purpose Lateral condyle fractures of the humerus are common in the paediatric population, accounting for up to 20% of elbow fractures. Traditional management involves internal fixation with Kirschner (K)-wires, however, this has been associated with ...
