Biomechanical comparison of tension band suture fixation and tension band wiring in olecranon fractures [PDF]

open access: yesInjury, 2023
Traditional tension band wire fixation (TBWF) of olecranon fractures is associated with high revision rates due to implant-related complications. The purpose of the study was to compare the strength of fixation in olecranon fractures between TBWF and an all-suture based technique.A transverse fracture was created in 20 paired fresh-frozen human ...

Tension band suture fixation for olecranon fractures [PDF]

open access: yesShoulder and Elbow, 2017
Olecranon fractures are common and often require surgical treatment when displaced. Traditional methods of stabilization using tension band wire fixation and plate fixation achieve adequate union and function but are associated with a high rate of re-operation and wound problems because of prominent metalwork.

Tension-band arthrodesis in the finger joints

The Journal of Hand Surgery, 1980
Tension-band arthrodesis was employed in 26 finger joints with various pathological lesions. This is a simple procedure based on the principles of compression osteosynthesis. Stability thus achieved makes immobilization of the hand unnecessary and allows full motion of all adjacent joints.

Tension-Band Technique for Ankle Fusion

Orthopedics, 2001
ABSTRACT A prospective study was conducted to develop a better technique for ankle fusion. Eleven consecutive patients were treated using the tension-band technique for ankle fusion and underwent follow-up for a minimum of 2 years (range: 2-5 years). All 1 1 patients achieved solid fusion for a fusion rate of 1 00%. Average time to fusion was

Tension-band laminoplasty of the cervical spine

International Orthopaedics, 1996
A new laminoplasty of the cervical spine has been developed using preserved ligaments as a tension-band. The laminae were enlarged in an open-door fashion and spacers inserted to maintain the spinolaminoligamentous complex intact. The stretched ligaments exerted a tension-band effect on the spacers and stabilised them so that neck movements could be ...
