Comparison of Outcomes for Unstable Distal Radius Intraarticular Fractures: T-locking Compression Plate versus External Fixator: Chul Hyun Cho, Su Won Jung, Sung Won Sohn, Chul Hyung Kang, Ki Cheor Bae, Kyung Jae Lee; J Korean Fract Soc 2008;21(1):51-56. Published online January 31, 2008; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jkfs.2008.21.1.51

PURPOSE
To compare the outcomes between T-locking compression plate (T-LCP) and external fixator (EF) for unstable distal radius intraarticular fractures.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
We retrospectively analysed the results in 22 cases with T-LCP, 20 cases with EF. We evaluated the clinical results according to the Mayo Wrist Scoring System, radiographic results.
RESULTS
The mean score was 84.6 in the T-LCP group and 80.5 in the EF group respectively. Final radiographic measurements for the T-LCP group averaged 10.5 mm radial length, 21.7degrees radial inclination, 9.8degrees volar tilt and 0.25 mm intraarticular step-off. The EF group averaged 10.1 mm radial length, 20.3 degrees radial inclination, 6.3 degrees volar tilt and 0.73 mm intraarticular step-off.
CONCLUSION
Both groups showed satisfactory final clinical outcomes. But T-LCP group allowed return to daily living, resulting in early postsurgical wrist motion. By the anatomical reduction, final volar tilt, intraarticular step-off were statistically better in the T-LCP group.

Late-onset Brachial Artery Occlusion caused by Subclavian Artery Stenosis after Clavicular Fracture: A Case Report: Chul Hyung Kang, Chul Hyun Cho, Sung Won Sohn, Ki Chul Bae, Hyung Tae Kim; J Korean Fract Soc 2006;19(4):494-496. Published online October 31, 2006; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jkfs.2006.19.4.494

Abstract

Although vascular injury after clavicular fracture is a extremely rare, it is a complication which is serious problem. Vascular injury associated with the fracture can be immediate or delayed. We report a case of late-onset brachial artery occlusion caused by subclavian artery stenosis with excessive scar tissue after open reduction and plate fixation for clavicular fracture and include a review of the literature.

Lateral Condylar Fracture of the Humerus in Children: An Epidemiological Analysis of 158 Cases: Chul Hyun Cho, Kwang Soon Song, Sung Won Sohn, Ki Chul Bae, Jung Hoon Lee; J Korean Fract Soc 2006;19(4):466-470. Published online October 31, 2006; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jkfs.2006.19.4.466

Abstract

PURPOSE
To analyze the correlation of various factors by examining the epidemiology of lateral condylar fracture of the humerus which is the second most fracture among elbow fractures in children.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Of 158 cases treated for lateral condylar fracture of the humerus in children from April 1996 to March 2006, their age and sex distribution, the seasonal frequency, etiology, type of fracture, method of treatment, etc. were analyzed retrospectively.
RESULTS
Boys were 113 cases, girls were 45 cases, and the mean age was 5.4 years. Regarding the seasonal occurrence, spring 43 cases, summer 44 cases, autumn 48 cases, and winter 23 cases had occurred. It occurred preferentially during the season when outdoor activity was most active. As its etiology, the accident in a playground was 39 cases, sports activity was 32 cases, traffic accident was 17 cases, slipping accident at home was 15 cases, falling accident at home was 14 cases, slip while playing with friends was 6 cases, a missing step while walking on stairs was 6 cases, fall from a height more than 2 floors was 4 cases, and the cases with unknown cause were 25 cases. According to the Jakob stage, the stage I was 42 cases, the stage II 77 cases, and the stage III was 39 cases. As treatment, cast immobilization was performed in 34 cases, closed reduction and percutaneous K-wire fixation was performed in 68 cases, and open reduction and K-wire fixation was performed in 56 cases. The prevalent causalities were play devices, accident during sports activity, and traffic accident, and in such cases, the displacement of fracture was severe and thus surgical treatments were performed in many cases (94%).
CONCLUSION
It is thought that during the season when outdoor action is active, particularly, for kindergarten children or the lower grade primary school children, safety education is required to prevent the fracture by play devices, sports activity and traffic accident.
