Elastic Stable Intramedullary Nailing (ESIN) versus Plating in Pediatric Subtrochanteric Femur Fractures

SVU - International Journal of Medical Sciences
Background: Pediatric subtrochanteric femur fractures are uncommon but pose unique challenges due to the biomechanical forces acting on this region. Elastic Stable Intramedullary Nailing (ESIN) and Open Reduction Internal Fixation (ORIF) are widely used ...

Further understanding on osteopetrotic femoral fractures: a case report and literature review

BMC Surgery, 2021
Background Osteopetrosis is a genetic disease characterized by defects in osteoclast formation and function. There were a few cases of subtrochanteric femur fractures treated with dynamic hip screw (DHS) in patients with osteopetrosis, but unfortunately ...

Pericapsular nerve group block with phenol for non‐operative hip fracture management in patients living with frailty: a prospective multicentre cohort study

Anaesthesia, EarlyView.
Summary Introduction The incidence of hip fractures is rising with the ageing population. For patients living with severe frailty and limited life expectancy, non‐operative management is increasingly considered after shared decision‐making. Given the limited availability of long‐term analgesic options, alternative techniques are needed.

Bisphosphonate-related bilateral atypical femoral fractures : be aware and beware [PDF]

, 2011
Although bisphosphonates have a well established therapeutic role in the prevention of osteoporosis-related fractures, several reports published over the past 5-6 years suggest a possible causative relationship between long-term use of bisphosphonates ...

Biological fixation of comminuted subtrochanteric fractures with proximal femur locking compression plate [PDF]

, 2022
Introduction: Subtrochanteric fractures are challengeable fractures that are associated with high incidence of complications and various intramedullary and extramedullary implants, are available for their fixation.(1) Traditional extramedullary implants ...

Management of Long, Comminuted Pediatric Subtrochanteric Fractures Using PHILOS (Proximal Humeral Internal Locked System)

Philippine Journal of Orthopaedics
Subtrochanteric fractures in the pediatric population are rare, and there are currently no existing management guidelines. In this innately unstable fracture type, intramedullary devices preferred for adults cannot be used in children with open growth ...

Is Dynamic Condylar Screw Better Than (95°) Blade Plate in Management of Subtrochanteric Fracture of Femur?

The Iraqi Journal of Medical Sciences, 2020
Background: Subtrochanteric fractures account for approximately 10-30% of all hip fractures, affecting persons of all ages and should be internally fixed to reduce the morbidity and mortality by early rehabilitation and mobilization.

Rare Novel Genetic Variants of the OFD1 Gene Associated With a Familial Form and a Sporadic Case of Long Bone Atypical Fractures

Clinical Genetics, EarlyView.
A novel rare variant of the OFD1 gene was identified in a family with dental hypoplasia, facial hypoplasia, and adult‐onset multiple atypical fractures of long bones. Another variant of the OFD1 gene was found in a woman with bisphosphonate‐associated atypical femur fracture.
