Treatment of the Unstable Intertrochanteric Fracture with Proximal Femoral Nail Antirotation: Comparison with Compression Hip Screw with Trochanteric Stabilizing Plate: Tae Ho Kim, Jong Oh Kim, Seung Yup Lee, Geon Ung Yun; J Korean Fract Soc 2010;23(4):353-359. Published online October 31, 2010; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jkfs.2010.23.4.353

PURPOSE
To evaluate the effectiveness of Proximal Femoral Nail Anti-rotation (PFNA) for the treatment of unstable intertrochanteric fracture comparing with Compression Hip Screw (CHS) with Trochanteric Stabilizing Plate (TSP).
MATERIALS AND METHODS
With clinical study, 43 patients who were treated surgically for unstable intertrochanteric fractures were retrospectively evaluated. One group was treated with CHS and TSP (Group 1, 22 cases) and the other was treated with PFNA (Group 2, 21 cases). By postoperative radiograph and last follow up radiograph we measured Tip-apex distance, Cleveland index, Lag screw slippage, Neck-shaft angle change and Union time. And By retrospective medical record review, the clinical results were evaluated with the operation time, intraoperative estimated blood loss, amount of drainage, amount of transfusion, walking ability change and complication.
RESULTS
There was a lower operation time, intraoperative estimated blood loss, amount of drainage, amount of transfusion, lag screw slippage and neck shaft angle change in the Group 2 than in the Group 1 (p<0.05).
CONCLUSION
PFNA showed better results than CHS with TSP in operation time, estimated blood loss, amount of drainage and transfusion, lag screw slippage and neck-shaft angle change.

Comparison of the Compression Hip Screw (CHS) and the Proximal Femoral Nail Antirotation (PFNA) for Intertrochanteric Femoral Fracture: Jong Min Lim, Jeung Il Kim, Jong Seok Oh, Kuen Tak Suh, Jae Min Ahn, Dong Joon Kang; J Korean Fract Soc 2010;23(4):360-366. Published online October 31, 2010; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jkfs.2010.23.4.360

Abstract PDF

PURPOSE
To evaluate the radiologic, clinical results between who had intertrochanteric fracture, treated with Compression Hip Screw (CHS) and Proximal Femoral Nail Antirotation (PFNA).
MATERIALS AND METHODS
We retrospectively reviewed each 36 and 48 patients of intertrochanteric fracture which were treated with CHS or PFNA by one surgeon from January 2005 to June 2009. We evaluated mean operation time, amount of bleeding, radiologic results, and the clinical outcomes with the mobility score of Parker and Palmer, social function scoring system.
RESULTS
The mean operation time, amount of bleeding were less in the PFNA group, there were 116.7 min, 486.1 ml for the CHS group versus 87.7 min, 289.6 ml for the PFNA group. The radiologic results were not significantly different. Decrease of mobility score of Parker and Palmer, social function score were similar. Proximal migration of leg screw and perforation of femoral head was 2 case and deep infection was 1 cases in CHS group.
CONCLUSION
There were no significant differences that are clinical and radiological results in treatment of intertrochanteric fracture using the CHS and PFNA. But PFNA is less invasive device than CHS, therefore it may be useful device in elderly patients.

Percutaneous Retrograde Intramedullary Pin Fixation for Isolated Metacarpal Shaft Fracture of the Little Finger: Soo Hong Han, Hyung Ku Yoon, Dong Eun Shin, Seung Chul Han, Young Woong Kim; J Korean Fract Soc 2010;23(4):367-372. Published online October 31, 2010; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jkfs.2010.23.4.367

Abstract PDF

PURPOSE
To evaluate the anatomic and functional outcome of retrograde intramedullary single wire fixation for metacarpal shaft fractures of the little finger.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
hirty one consecutive patients with closed metacarpal shaft fractures of the little finger who have been treated with retrograde intramedullary single wire fixation were evaluated. Fracture union and angulation were analyzed radiologically, and clinical evaluations were performed including range of motion, DASH score and complications.
RESULTS
Fracture union was achieved in all cases and callus formation was obvious at postoperative 41 days. Average angulation of fracture site was 3degrees in the coronal plane and 1.2degrees in the sagittal plane at the last follow up and no measurable metacarpal shortening was observed. Mean TAM was 253degrees and DASH score was 2.6. There were two cases of pin migration as intermediate complications.
CONCLUSION
Closed reduction with subsequent percutaneous retrograde K-wire fixation produced good radiological and functional results. We recommend this minimally invasive technique which provides adequate fixation of displaced little finger metacarpal shaft fractures with good functional results and low morbidity.

Bowel Entrapment by Fragments of Acetabular Fracture: A Case Report: Ji Wan Kim, Jung Jae Kim, Suk Kyung Hong, Kyu Hyuk Kyung, Jin Hee Kim; J Korean Fract Soc 2010;23(4):373-376. Published online October 31, 2010; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jkfs.2010.23.4.373

Abstract PDF: Abdominal injuries are common in patients with pelvic or acetabular fracture. However intestinal entrapment or perforation caused by fragments of a pelvic or acetabular fracture is rare and to date there has been no report of this occurring in Korea so far. As it is difficult to diagnose intestinal entrapment caused by fragments of pelvic or acetabular fracture, the entrapment therefore results in intestinal perforation, sepsis, and a high mortality rate in the absence of early detection. We present a case of intestinal entrapment and perforation caused by fragments of acetabular fracture as well as a literature review.

Dislocation of the Shoulder with Ipsilateral Humeral Shaft Fracture: A Case Report: Chul Hyun Cho, Kwang Yeung Jeong; J Korean Fract Soc 2010;23(4):382-385. Published online October 31, 2010; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jkfs.2010.23.4.382

Abstract PDF

Dislocation of the shoulder with ipsilateral humeral shaft fracture is very rare, but serious injury that requires emergent care. There have been approximately 20 cases reported in the English literature, but it has never been reported in Korea. We report a case of dislocation of right shoulder with ipsilateral humeral shaft fracture which was successfully treated by closed reduction of the shoulder under general anesthesia and internal fixation with antegrade interlocking intramedullary nailing for the humeral shaft fracture.
