Periprosthetic Fracture after Hook Plate Fixation in Neer Type II Distal Clavicle Fracture: A Report of 3 Cases: Kyung Yong Kim, Joon Yub Kim, Won Bok Lee, Myong Gon Jung, Jeong Hyun Yoo, Joo Hak Kim; J Korean Fract Soc 2016;29(1):55-60.

Hook plate fixation is a treatment method for the displaced distal clavicle fracture with favorable results regarding bone union and shoulder function, however possible complications include impingement syndromes, subacrormial erosions, acromial fractures, and periprosthetic fractures. In this report, we observed 3 cases of periprosthetic fracture after hook plate fixation. All cases of periprosthetic fractures were initiated at the medial end screw holes. The causes of these periprosthetic fractures appeared to be the off centered fixation of medial end screws near the anterior or posterior cortex which were specific during operations with hook plates with more than 6 holes and the increased stress on the medial end screw by over-reduced or inferiorly reduced position of the distal end of the clavicle by the hook plate.

The Usefulness of Poller Screw with Antegrade Nailing in the Initial Treatment of Infraisthmal Femur Shaft Fracture: Jeong Hyun Yoo, Hyoung Soo Kim, Chang Geun Kim, Ho Il Kwak, Sang Heon Song; J Korean Fract Soc 2015;28(4):230-236. Published online October 31, 2015; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jkfs.2015.28.4.230

Abstract PDF: PURPOSE
The purpose of this study was to evaluate the radiologic and clinical outcomes after intramedullary nailing with Poller screw insertion at initial stage in infraisthmal femur shaft fractures.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Seven consecutive patients (7 femurs) treated with antegrade intramedullary nailing with Poller screw insertion for the infraisthmal femur shaft fracture were reviewed retrospectively. There were 4 male and 3 female patients. Mean age was 46.1 years (20-72 years). Operative time including Poller screw insertion, time for union, malalignment, and range of motion were evaluated.
RESULTS
All 7 cases had primarily healed successfully. Mean time for radiologic union was 19.1 weeks (16-24 weeks) postoperatively. One case had 5 degree valgus malalignment. One case of 15 mm shortening was reported and he required shoe lift orthosis. All cases had a full range of motion in hip and knee joint.
CONCLUSION
Antegrade intramedullary nailing with Poller screw insertion is useful in the initial treatment of infraisthmal femur shaft fracture, because it could provide additional stability. An additional 20 minutes were required but a Poller screw should be considered according to the anatomic location of a femur shaft fracture.

Comparative Analysis of the Results of Fixed-angle versus Variable-angle Volar Locking Plate for Distal Radius Fracture Fixation: Seung Do Cha, Jai Hyung Park, Hyung Soo Kim, Soo Tae Chung, Jeong Hyun Yoo, Joo Hak Kim, Jung Hwan Park; J Korean Fract Soc 2012;25(3):197-202. Published online July 31, 2012; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jkfs.2012.25.3.197

Abstract PDF

PURPOSE
To compare the outcomes of distal radius fractures in a fixed-angle volar locking plate group and variable-angle volar locking plate group.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Forty-one patients observed at least 6 months after surgery were included in this retrospective study. We used the range of motion, visual analogue scale score, Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder and Hand Questionnaire score, and radiologic findings to measure the clinical results.
RESULTS
No differences in clinical results or radiologic results were noted between the fixed-angle volar locking plate group and variable-angle volar locking plate group.
CONCLUSION
We believe that it is important to minimize complications by using appropriate screws and plates according to the fracture type, though no differences in the surgical outcome were noted between the fixed-angle volar locking plate group and variable-angle volar locking plate group with distal radius fracture.

Combined Lunate and Triquetrum Fracture: A Case Report: Joo Hak Kim, Hyung Soo Kim, Soo Tae Chung, Jeong Hyun Yoo, Seung Do Cha, Joong Hyo Lee, Jai Hyung Park; J Korean Fract Soc 2008;21(4):320-324. Published online October 31, 2008; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jkfs.2008.21.4.320

Abstract PDF: We described an unusual case of a 16-year-old Taekwondo athlete who injured the left wrist when she compete with other athlete. She described a mechanism of axial loading, with the wrist in radial deviation. This unusual combined lunate and triquetrum fracture was not associated with the perilunar dislocation. We present this case with a review of the literature. In this case, internal fixation and early range of motion result in a good functional outcome.
