Fracture of the Os Peroneum with Rupture of the Peroneus Longus Tendon: A Case Report: Yong Hoon Kim, Keun Woo Kim, Hak Jin Min, Eui Seong Yoon, Hee Oh Kim, Jae Seong Suh; J Korean Soc Fract 2001;14(4):685-688. Published online October 31, 2001; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jksf.2001.14.4.685

Os peroneum is one of the normal sesamoids in the foot and it can be insertion of peroneus longus tendon. We report a case of as peroneum fracture with complete tear of peroneus longus tendon. This case was finally diagnosed in operation and treated by suture with peroneus brevis tendon and short leg cast.

Abstract PDF: PURPOSE
This study summarizes the satisfactory results obtained using a composite fixation method for the surgical treatment of long bone fractures in elderly patients with osteoporosis.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
We reviewed 10 cases of long bone fractures, that were treated by composite fixation, involving patients over 60 years of age that presented with radiological osteoporosis. Composite fixation was applied incorporating, traditional plate and screw fixation in conjunction with bone graft, plate or intramedullary bone cement at four cases of humeral shaft fractures, three cases of femur supracondylar fractures, two cases of femur shaft fractures, and one case of tibia shaft fracture. Results were evaluated in methods of ambulation, range of motion, bony union and complications.
RESULTS
Satisfactory ambulation and range of motion was observed in all cases, which showed bony union without early implant failure. No re-operation were necessary due to nonunion. No medical complication was noted.
CONCLUSION
The results shows that the composite fixation method provided a stable reduction and a rigid fixation, which facilitated bony union, and allowed elderly patients with osteoporosis an early range of motion and mobility after the surgical treatment of long bone fractures.

Radial Head Dislocation With Ipsilateral Radial Shaft Fracture: A Case Report: Keun Woo Kim, Yong Hoon Kim, Hak Jin Min, Ui Seoung Yoon, Hee Oh Kim, Jae Hee Kim; J Korean Soc Fract 2000;13(3):570-575. Published online July 31, 2000; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jksf.2000.13.3.570

Abstract PDF

Radial head dislocation with ipsilateral radial shaft fracture is one of the reportable trauma case with very low incidence. Only 4 cases of this type injury have been reported worldwide. In 3 cases of them, good results were achieved after early closed reduction of the radial head, followed by internal fixation of the radial shaft. In the a u t h o r s'case, the patient received the same method of treatment mentioned at the previous successful 3 cases. But after that, he suffered from repeated dislocations and finally nonunion of the fracture. At last, the authors could obtain bony union and stable elbow joint after radial head resection and osteosynthesis using autologous cancellous bone graft, but resulted in limitation of motion. We report the case and the experience of treatment.
