A Comparison between Compression Hip Screw and Intramedullary Nail for the Treatment of AO/OTA A2.2 Intertrochanteric Femoral Fracture: Phil Hyun Chung, Suk Kang, Jong Pil Kim, Young Sung Kim, Ho Min Lee, Jong Hyun Kim; J Korean Fract Soc 2013;26(1):44-49. Published online January 31, 2013; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jkfs.2013.26.1.44

PURPOSE
To compare the result between the compression hip screw (CHS) and intramedullary (IM) nail for the treatment of AO/OTA A2.2 intertrochanteric fracture.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
We retrospectively reviewed 95 cases of AO/OTA A2.2 intertrochanteric fracture, which were treated with CHS or IM nail by one surgeon from March 1994 to December 2009. One group was treated with CHS (Group I, 28 cases) and the other was treated with IM nail (Group II, 67 cases). We evaluated the mean operation time, the amount of bleeding and transfusion, hospital duration, radiological results and the clinical outcome with the mobility score of Parker and Palmer.
RESULTS
Radiologically, the tip-apex distance, change of neck-shaft angle, and union time were not significantly different between both groups (p>0.05). Clinically, the mean operation time, the amount of bleeding and transfusion, hospital duration and the mobility score were not significantly different (p>0.05). The post-operative complications were lag screw slippage over 25 mm (1 case) and loosening of device (1 case) in group I. In group II, there were perforation of the femoral head (1 case), nail breakage (1 case) and deep infection (1 case).
CONCLUSION
There was no significant differences that are clinical and radiological results in the treatment of AO/OTA A2.2 intertrochanteric fracture, using CHS and IM nail.

Surgical Techniques for Percutaneous Reduction by Towel Clips and Percutaneous Intramedullary Fixation with Steinmann Pins for Clavicle Shaft Fractures: Ki Do Hong, Jae Chun Sim, Sung Sik Ha, Tae Ho Kim, Jong Hyun Kim, Jong Seong Lee; J Korean Fract Soc 2012;25(1):31-37. Published online January 31, 2012; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jkfs.2012.25.1.31

Abstract PDF

PURPOSE
To report the clinical results of surgical treatment of clavicle shaft fracture by percutaneous reduction with towel clips and percutaneous intramedullary pin fixation.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
This study reviewed the results of 80 cases of clavicle shaft fracture treated by percutaneous reduction with towel clips and percutaneous intramedullary pin fixation with Steinmann pins from January 2002 to August 2010, after follow-up for 12 months or more. We evaluated the clinical results, such as union time and complications.
RESULTS
Bone union was evident in all cases and the mean time for bone union to appear on radiological findings was 10.3 weeks. Using Kang's criteria, 78 of the 80 patients (97.5%) showed good results and there were no severe complications.
CONCLUSION
Percutaneous reduction with towel clips and the percutaneous intramedullary pin fixation method showed good results for treating clavicle shaft fracture.

Comparison of Operative Management in Distal Radius Fractures Using 3.5 mm Versus 2.4 mm Volar Locking Compression Plates: Sung Sik Ha, Tae Ho Kim, Ki Do Hong, Jae Chun Sim, Jong Hyun Kim; J Korean Fract Soc 2011;24(2):156-162. Published online April 30, 2011; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jkfs.2011.24.2.156

Abstract PDF

PURPOSE
To evaluate clinical and radiological results using 3.5 mm & 2.4 mm volar locking compression plate (LCP) in distal radius fractures.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
This study reviewed the results of 115 cases of distal radius fractures treated with 3.5 mm volar LCP (73 cases) & 2.4 mm volar LCP (42 cases) from September 2003 to June 2009. The radiographic results were evaluated by radiographic assessment, and the clinical results were evaluated by Knirk and Jupiter's criteria, Modified Mayo wrist scoring system and DASH score.
RESULTS
Radiological evaluation of the radial length, radial inclination, volar tilt and intraarticular step off were improved both 3.5 mm volar LCP and 2.4 mm volar LCP. Nine cases of arthritis occured in 3.5 mm volar LCP and 7 cases in 2.4 mm volar by using the Knirk and Jupiter's criteria. The mean score evaluated by Modified Mayo was 86.7 in 3.5 mm volar LCP and 84.8 in 2.4 mm volar LCP. DASH score was 11.2 point in 3.5 mm volar LCP, 10.9 point in 2.4 mm volar LCP. All cases showed bone union showing no evidence of malunion, nounion, nor metal failure.
CONCLUSION
Distal radius fractures treated with 3.5 mm volar LCP and 2.4 mm volar LCP show satisfying radiological and clinical outcome.

Operative Treatment with Gamma 3 Nail in Femur Intertrochanteric Fracture: Ki Do Hong, Jae Chun Sim, Sung Sik Ha, Tae Ho Kim, Yoon Ho Choi, Jong Hyun Kim; J Korean Fract Soc 2011;24(1):7-15. Published online January 31, 2011; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jkfs.2011.24.1.7

Abstract PDF

PURPOSE
To evaluate clinical and radiological results of surgical treatment of femur intertrochantenric fracture using Gamma 3 nail.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
With clinical study, 22 patients who were treated surgically by Gamma 3 nail were retrospectively evaluated. By postoperative radiograph and last follow up radiograph we measured Tip-apex distance, Cleveland index, Neck-shaft angle change Lag screw slippage and Union time. And By medical record review, the clinical results were evaluated with the operation time, intraperative estimated blood loss, amount of transfusion, change of mobility and complication.
RESULTS
The mean change of femur neck shaft angle was 5.18 degrees. The mean lag screw sliding was 5.43 mm. The mean bone union time was 11.8 weeks. From all of these examples shows bone union. The mean operative time was 41 min, blood loss was 161 ml and the transfusion amount was 0.3 pint. In Ceder et al mobility score, it showed 0.2 point decreased and in Jensen social function score, it showed 0.6 point increased. Comparing the results before and after operation, the results were satisfactory.
CONCLUSION
Using the Gamma 3 nail, the treatment of fermur intertrochanteric fractures showed good results both radiologically and clinically.

Clinical Distribution of Bilateral Non-contemporary Hip Fractures in Elderly Patients: Hyung Ku Yoon, Duck Yun Cho, Dong Eun Shin, Sang Jun Song, Jong Hyun Kim, Byung Ho Yoon; J Korean Fract Soc 2005;18(4):375-378. Published online October 31, 2005; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jkfs.2005.18.4.375

Abstract PDF

PURPOSE
To evaluate the clinical distribution of bilateral non-contemporary hip fractures regarding to fractures type, risk factors and fractures interval in elderly patients.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
24 bilateral non-contemporary cases among 621 hip fractures from Sep. 1997 to Dec. 2004 were evaluated regarding to gender, age, incidence, Singh index, causes, interval, fracture pattern, operative methods and underlying diseases between the two fractures retrospectively.
RESULTS
The distribution is as follows: males to females (5:19), incidence (3.86%), mean age (76.9 years and 78.9 years), average Singh index 2.5 degree (2~4) and 2.1 degree (1~3) respectively. 21 cases (87.5%) in both fractures suffered from minor slips and 19 cases (79.1%) occured within 3 years of the first fracture and 17 (68.1%) cases were same type fractures. Bipolar hemiarthroplasty was performed in 12 cases. All but one patient had underlying cardiovascular diseases and CVA sequales.
CONCLUSION
To prevent the bilateral non-contemporary hip fractures, surgeons must bear in mind that osteoporosis treatment, control of underlying cardiovascular diseases and CVA sequales, and the effective rehabilitation is very important.
