Filter by:Acetabular fractures are complex, relatively rare lesions that are difficult to manage. Given the surgical challenge they represent, they are often managed by expert centers. The overall incidence of these fractures is around 3 fractures/100,000 persons/year. It is now well established that the quality of the reduction obtained is an important predictive factor of the postoperative outcome in patients with displaced acetabular fractures. Obtaining an anatomical reduction, at least satisfactory, is not always easy, even in trained teams. Indeed, it can be difficult because of the structural environment. This is due to the proximity of the acetabulum to the vasculo-nervous elements, but also to the complexity of the fracture itself. The contribution of new technologies appear to be important tools to achieve this objective. Indeed, investigators have demonstrated that the use of the O-ARM imaging system (Medtronic®, Sofamor, Memphis, TN) allowed the improvement of their results. Although they occur more frequently in the elderly population, the average incidence is maintained in the 20-59 age group. In these young populations, the fracture occurs most frequently as a result of a high-energy mechanism (road accident, more exceptionally, during a sporting activity). These patients, in the prime of their lives, are often athletic. The desire to resume sports after surgery is a powerful motivating factor for these patients. Often, it is the primary measure of surgical success from the athlete's perspective. In a previous work, Giannoudis et al. reported a 42% rate of return to activity at the previous level. The quality of the surgery is associated with the possibility of resuming sports activity after the procedure. Thus, the objective of this work is to determine the results of acetabular surgery in a population of previously athletic patients, in particular the return to athletic performance.
The mechanism of maintaining balance is a complex phenomenon, involving numerous systems of human body. High-energy trauma resulting in acetabular fracture damages some of the elements composing this delicate mechanism, potentially increasing the risk of falls in patients. There have not been any studies so far on balance levels in patients after surgical treatment of acetabular fractures. Questions/purposes 1. Do balance disorders occur in patients after ORIF of acetabular fractures? 2. Do surgical approach and fracture pattern influence balance level of patients? 3. Should therapy programs include certain stabilometric parameters adequate especially for this type of injury?
The study will evaluate ultrasound guided SEQ block: single puncture combined lumbar erector spinae plane block and paraspinous sagittal shift (PSSS) quadratus lumborum block when compared with conventional intravenous morphine analgesia in patients undergoing posterior column acetabular fracture surgery
Background: Acetabular fractures result from violent trauma, and their incidence has been increasing in recent years. The Kocher-Langenbeck surgical approach is used for the internal fixation of displaced fractures of the posterior structures of the acetabulum. The quality of the reduction and the stability of osteosynthesis directly influence the function of the repaired acetabulum. In the surgical management of acetabulum fractures, 3D printing of a bone model is increasingly used during preoperative planning by trauma surgeons worldwide. Questions: Is there a difference in the surgical time of the Kocher-langenbeck reduction and fixation of the posterior structures of the acetabulum between 3D printing (which allows for shaping of the reconstruction plate prior to surgery) and the conventional technique? Are there any differences in complications between the two techniques? Are there any short-term differences in the functional and radiographic scores between 3D printing and the conventional technique? Methods: 109 consecutive patients who sustained fractures of the acetabulum were screened for inclusion. 43 patient were studied. The first group (G1) consisted of 20 patients who underwent prior molding of the osteosynthesis plate on a 3D-printed model. The second group (G2 or control group) included 23 patients who underwent surgery using the conventional technique. We compared surgical time, intraoperative blood loss, the difference between pre- and postoperative hemoglobin, and the onset of early infection, paralysis of the sciatic nerve, and deep vein thrombosis.
Acetal fractures are joint fractures that occur in the hip. These fractures affect the functional prognosis of the hip in the short, medium and long term. In the acetabulum fractures operated on, there is a radiological score in the literature allowing the prognosis to be predicted depending on the quality of the postoperative reduction. This score is based on the quality of postoperative reduction assessed on pelvic radios. In addition, the thresholds for poor / good results were determined empirically.
This study aim to describe the presence, type and size of Corona mortis (CMOR) in patients undergoing total extraperitoneal (TEP) inguinal hernia repair procedures. This study also aim to describe the preperitoneal vascular anatomy of inguinal area and provide in vivo knowledge about CMOR.
Pelvic fractures are severe injuries which require advanced orthopedic surgical skills to treat. On the other hand, abdominal injuries are severe injuries, which might require quick general surgical treatment. The combination of both injuries is a challenge for orthopedic surgeons, as the abdominal injury might lead to a delayed surgical treatment of the pelvic fracture. Whether an associated abdominal injury influences the quality of care of pelvic fractures, is aim of this registry study.
This retrospective study investigates surgical treatment of acetabular fractures in elderly patients (>60 years of age), either undergoing joint-preserving surgery or joint- replacement. 1 year- outcome with regard to mobility and autonomy is assessed.
The acetabulum fracture result from a trauma with high energy at the young adult or from a trauma of low energy at the old osteoporotic patient. Anatomic reduction is known to be necessary to give functional result to patient.However, it's technically difficult because of the pelvic bone conformation. The presence of dome impaction makes the surgery more difficult. Per operatory scanner associated to 3D navigation is proved his value-added in spinal surgery.The aim of the study is show that this association permit a technical improvement for the surgeon in the precision of fracture reduction.and restore the articular congruence.
There is debate over the best management for acetabular (hip) fractures that occur within the geriatric population. Geriatric patients, 60 years or older, are at greater risk for operative complications because they tend to have poorer bone quality, complicated fractures, and multiple health problems. Physicians currently have no guidelines as to the best surgical management for these particular fractures, because there is little data on the long-term outcomes of these injuries. The use of internal fixation (a nail or plate) is a standard method for repairing these injuries, however when the injuries are complicated it is predicted to have a poorer outcome than performing internal fixation along with total hip arthroplasty (joint reconstruction). Given the significant problems that result from hip fractures in this population, our study is designed to determine the best method for treatment of acetabular fractures and to clarify the criteria for treatment with guidelines assisting the physician in selecting the appropriate treatment.
