INTRODUCTION: A subtrochanteric proximal femur fracture occurs in the 5 cm of bone immediately distal to the lesser trochanter. UK national guidelines advise that adults with subtrochanteric fractures should be treated with an...
Bone transport with magnetic intramedullary nails in long bone defects.
BACKGROUND: This study describes the outcomes of internal bone transport with magnetic nails in five cases of traumatic segmental femoral bone defects. METHODS: Five patients with open fracture of the femur and diaphyseal bone...
Management of post-traumatic femoral defects with a monorail external fixator over an intramedullary nail.
PURPOSE: The management of limb-length discrepancy secondary to traumatic femoral bone loss poses a unique challenge for surgeons. The Ilizarov technique is popular, but is associated with long external fixator time and many...
Ankle fusion with tibiotalocalcaneal retrograde nail for fragility ankle fractures
PURPOSE: Fragility ankles fractures in the geriatric population are challenging to manage, due to fracture instability, soft tissue compromise, and patient co-morbidities. Traditional management options include open reduction...
