Simultaneous Dorsal Dislocation of Interphalangeal Joints in the Same Finger: Two Case Report: Hyun Seok Song, Suk Ku Han, Sung Jin Park, Won Sik Nam, Hyuk Jae Yang, Nam Yong Choi; J Korean Fract Soc 2006;19(3):388-391. Published online July 31, 2006; DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jkfs.2006.19.3.388

We treated 2 cases of simultaneous dorsal dislocation of interphalangeal joints in the 5th finger. One case was injured by herperextension during basketball, and treated by open reduction and K-wire fixation. Another case was injured by industrial accident, and treated by splint for 1 week.

Abstract PDF

PURPOSE
The aims of this study were to determine the effectiveness of the treatment using augmentation plate fixation for nonunion of long bone fracture after interlocking intramedullary nailing MATERIALS AND METHODS: Thirteen patients with nonunion of the long bone fracture after interlocking intramedullary nailing who underwent augmentation plate fixation were evaluated; followed up for more than 1 years. We evaluated five patients with nonunion of the humerus, three of the tibia and five of the femur. Twelve of thirteen patients were carried out autogenous cancellous bone graft and augmentation plate fixation was performed without removal of intramedullary nail for all patients.
RESULTS
For the cause of nonunion, seven patients were by iatrogenic factors such as insecure fixaton and six patients were by fracture itself such as severe comminution and open fracture. Bone union was achieved in thirteen patients all and the average bony union time was 4.2 months (ranged from 3 to 5.5 months) for the humerus, 6.4 months (ranged from 4 to 8.5 months) for the tibia and 7.3 months (ranged from 5.5 to 9 months) for the femur. There were no complications such as reoperation, infection or plate failure.
CONCLUSION
TAugmentation plate fixation is effective treatment option for the management of long bone fracture nonunion after intramedullary nailing.
