Lisfranc Joint Injuries: Diagnosis and Treatment: Hyun Seok Yim, Sung Ha Hong, Ki Sun Sung; J Korean Fract Soc 2016;29(4):283-293. Published online October 31, 2016; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jkfs.2016.29.4.283

Injuries to the Lisfranc joint are relatively rare, but they are often misdiagnosed or inadequately treated, resulting in poor long-term outcomes. Understanding of anatomical structure and injury mechanism, careful clinical and radiographic evaluations are needed to recognize and treat Lisfranc joint injuries. In this article, we review the anatomy, biomechanics, injury mechanisms, injury classification, clinical presentation, radiographic evaluation, treatment, outcome, and complications of Lisfranc joint injuries.

Treatment of the Children's Femur Shaft Fracture by Early Spica Cast: Kwang Hoon Chung, Jong Sup Shim, Ki Sun Sung, Seung Jun Park; J Korean Soc Fract 2003;16(2):270-277. Published online April 30, 2003; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jksf.2003.16.2.270

Abstract PDF

PURPOSE
To investigate the proper indication, technical point and complication of the early hip spica cast.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Thirty-one children with thirty-two fractures more than 2-year follow up were included. The patient's average age and weight were 5 year 2 months and 19.1 Kg respectively. Spica cast was applied as follow. First short leg cast was applied, and then patient was placed on the spica cast table. During the cast incorporation, the hip and knee flexed sufficiently to maintain length and alignment of the fracture, and popliteal fossa was well molded and padded. The meticulous valgus molding of the fracture site was also needed.
RESULTS
Average bayonet overriding of the fracture was initially 1.1 cm, however it increased to 1.5 cm during cast immobilization. In the 9 patients (28.1%), cast wedging correction were needed to 3 to 14 days after initial cast immobilization and the cause of correction was related to patients weight. At the final follow up, there was no serious functional or cosmetic complications.
CONCLUSION
For the successful treatment, the proper patients selection, meticulous cast application and careful radiographic assessment after cast application were needed.

Treatment of Femoral Shaft Nonunions with Dynamic Compression using Interlocking-Compression (IC) Nail: Youn Soo Park, Young Wan Moon, Ki Sun Sung; J Korean Soc Fract 2003;16(2):155-162. Published online April 30, 2003; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jksf.2003.16.2.155

Abstract PDF: PURPOSE
To evaluate the effectiveness of a specially designed Interlocking-Compression Nail (IC Nail(R), Osteo, Switzerland) which allows compression force across the nonunion site for the treatment of femoral shaft nonunions.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Between Nov. 1998 and June 2002, twenty one nonunions of femoral shaft fractures in twenty patients were treated with reamed IC nails of larger diameters without bone grafting in 9 men and 11 women, 8 to 45 months after initial operations. Seventeen cases were hypervascular nonunions, 3 avascular, and 1 infected. For initial operation, 10 closed nailing, 10 open nailing and 1 plate fixation were performed. One or more additional procedures had been done in 17 cases prior to IC nailing.
RESULTS
The nonunion gap was considerably narrowed from 7.4 mm to 3.1 mm with IC nailing and bony unions were achieved in all but one case. The time for radiographic union was 4 to 15 months posteoperatively with an average of 7.4.
CONCLUSION
Reamed IC Nail(R) with a larger diameter is an effective procedure for femoral shaft fracture nonunion regardless of initial treatment modalities and even in 3 avascular nonunions, 2 have shown radiographic union without bone grafting. Additional procedures are to be considered in failed surgery of avascular nonunions.
