Treatment of Patella Fracture Using Modified Transverse Tension Band Wiring Method: Jung Dae Oh, Cyeong Rim Lim, Yu Jin Joung, Gyu Sung Lee; J Korean Soc Fract 1998;11(4):858-864. Published online October 31, 1998; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jksf.1998.11.4.858

Abstract PDF: Recently the fracture of patella has increasing tendency due to frequent traffic and industrial accidents. In this series, we treated fractures of patella by open reduction and internal fixation with modified transverse tension band wiring method. Early post operative continuous passive motion and early weight bearing exercise were followed. This method was excellent for treatment of the patella fractures. The surgical results were evaluted by Leveck scoring systems, 12 out of 14 cases had satisfactory results. This technique have some advantage in terms of decreasing pain and maintenance of circulation on the patella, because of the small incision and minimize dissection. It can prevent post operative complications such as limitation of motion and post traumatic arthritis of the knee joint.

Surgical Treatment of Tibial Plateau Fracture: Validity of Arthroscopy: Shin Kang Cho, Jung Dae Oh, Young Sik Lee, Jin Tae Choi, Gyeong Hin Lim; J Korean Soc Fract 1997;10(4):832-842. Published online October 31, 1997; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jksf.1997.10.4.832

Twenty tibial plateau fractures were surgically treated by means of the double images of the arthroscopy and the image intensifier. The purpose of this attempt was (1) obtaining more anatomical reduction of articular margin, (2) preventing knee joint from the surgical dissection and (3) simultaneous diagnosis & management of the combined meniscus and ligament injuries. Three aims of this study are searching for (1) the indications of the arthroscopic surgery for the libial plateau fractures, (2) the techniques of the arthroscopic surgery for reduction and fixation and (3) the techniques for reducing the risk of the arthroscopic surgery. As a result, we can obtain more anatomical reduction and excellent or good functional knee score after follow-up study of a mean of 1 year and 9 months. There is no complication with regard to arthroscopic surgery. But anatomical reduction of the bicondyle fractures with severe articular and metaphyseal comminution was technically difficult. So, the other technique as if open reduction will be needed.

Traumatic Bilateral Anterior and Posterior Dislocations of the Hips with a Unilateral Acetabular Posterior Column Fracture (Thompson and Epstein type IV): A Case Report: Young Sik Lee, Jung Dae Oh, Jin Tae Choi, Gyeong Rin Lim; J Korean Soc Fract 1997;10(4):766-771. Published online October 31, 1997; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jksf.1997.10.4.766

Abstract PDF: A rare case of traumatic bilateral anterior and posterior dislocations of the hips occurred by passenger traffic accident . The right hip was dislocated posterosuperior to the right acetabulum with a linear acetabular posterior column tracture(Thompson and Epstein type IV) and left hip was dislocated anteroinferior to the left acetabulum(modified classification of Epstein type II A). The dislocations were successfully reduced by the Bigelows method for the right hip and the reverse Bigelows method for the left hip, and 4 weeks of Bucks traction was applied. He was able to return to full activity after 4 months. There was no sign of avascular necrosis at 3 years and 11 months follow-up.

Treatment of Intertrochanteric Fracture with Gamma Nail: Jung Dae Oh, Young Shik Lee, Shin Kang Cho, Jin Tae Choi; J Korean Soc Fract 1996;9(3):533-540. Published online July 31, 1996; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jksf.1996.9.3.533

Abstract PDF: There are many problems in the treatment of the intertrochanteric fracture due to osteoporosis and unstable patten of fracture in elderly patients, which are also determined by quality of the bone, geometry and reduction of the fragments, and type and placements of the implant. The Gamma nail has recently become available for the treatment of intertrochanteric femur fracture. The authors analysed the intertrochanteric fracture of the 33 patients who were operatively treated with Gamma nail and followed up more than 3 years from May, 1991 to June, 1994 to evaluate the results and prognostic factors. The results obtained were as follws; 1. Type III in TronBo classification was the most common(58%). 2. Among the 33 cases, the patients with osteoporosis below grade III of Singh index were 26 cases(78.8%). In osteoporotic group(Singh index I-III), unstable type fracture was more common(85%). 3. The complication was developed in 8 cases(24.2%), of which cutting out from the femoral head was found in 4 cases. 4. The complication rate statistically had significant correlation with severity of osteoporosis.
