Fractured Tibia With An Intramedullary Nail

Latissimus Dorsi Flap

University of Louisville Cardinal guard Kevin Ware of the tibia and fibula. The tibia is the main weight bearing bone of the leg, so treatment is focused on this and not the fibula. The standard treatment of a tibia shaft fracture is an intramedullary Fracture and surgical factors have been identified for the prediction of adverse outcomes after intramedullary nailing of tibial shaft fractures, according to a study published in the Oct. 3 issue of The Journal of Bone & Joint Surgery. (HealthDay [1] The most common fracture of the lower limb occurs at the tibial Management of extra-articular fractures of the distal tibia: intramedullary nailing versus plate fixation. J Am Acad Orthop Surg. Nov 2012;20(11):675-83. [Medline]. This study will compare the incidence of anterior knee pain associated with different approaches for insertion of an intramedullary nail for tibia fractures. A semi-extended parapatellar approach, with the nail inserted with the knee in relative extension DGIMED ORTHO, Inc. announced today that the company has received notification of clearance of its 510(k) submission for the DISTALOCK TM Titanium Femoral Intramedullary on adapting our nail and drill system for use with tibia fractures.” An antibiotic eluding intramedullary nail apparatus for use in the intramedullary fixation of fractured long bones, such as femurs, tibias, fibulas, humeri, ulnas and radii, as well as other orthopedic and bone reconstructive procedures, and, in particular .

during tibial fracture cases and 49 seconds during femoral fracture cases (2.362 rads). For an orthopaedic trauma surgeon who performs one intramedullary nail case per week, this equals more than 6 hours of radiation eliminated over the course of 10 years. The more severe and more complicated of the leg fracture is the tibia surgery for his/her broken leg?” Well, the most common approach to fixing a tibia surgically is to use something called an intramedullary nail. This is essentially a titanium We have chosen the time-points for mechanical measurements from a clinical point of view, the healing process of a tibia fracture treated with an intramedullary nail can take up to 3 month (12 weeks).
