Hwa Yeop Na, Joon Cheol Choi, Jun Won Choi, Sang Ho Lee, Young Sang Lee, Woo Sung Kim, Sang Yoon Lee, Jong Won Won, Sang Ho Han
J Korean Fract Soc 2006;19(2):241-246.   Published online April 30, 2006
DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jkfs.2006.19.2.241
AbstractAbstract
PURPOSE
To evaluate the safety and usefulness of the short-segment posterior instrumentation and fusion in the treatment of thoracolumbar spine fractures.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
Forty-two patients were treated by short-segment pedicle screw instrumentation and fusion between Oct. 1998. and Jan. 2004 by single surgeon. All patients were treated posteriorly and all the pedicle screws are monoaxial. Intraoperative rod bending and fixation technique was used to reduce the collapsed vertebral body and correct the kyphotic angle. The follow up duration is mean 2.1 year (1~6 year). The mean age is 40.2 year (18~60 year) old. The fractures were classified by Denis' classification and Load-Sharing Classification. Preoperative and postoperative changes of kyphotic angle and vertebral body height were measured. Denis' Pain Score and Work scales, Frankel neurologic grade were obtained during follow-up evaluation for patients.
RESULTS
All the cases got solid bony union. Mean Load-Sharing Score was 7.3. Clinical results were good. The mean kyphotic angle was preoperatively 14.5 degree, immediate postoperatively 7.5 degree, and last follow up 9.2 degree. The mean anterior vertebral heights s were 60.8% preoperatively, 83.4% immediate postoperatively, and 79.5% last follow up. There was only one case of screw breakage but no revision operation due to loss of reduction. All the cases showed satisfactory clinical results.
CONCLUSION
This study suggest that short-segment instrumentation and fusion using pedicle screw system for thoracolumbar spine fractures could lead to good results, if comminution of vertebral body is considered in the selection of approach.

Comparative Analysis of Interlocking IM Nailing and LC-DCP fixation in the Treatment of Distal Tibial Fracture

AbstractAbstract PDF
PURPOSE
To compare the clinical results between interlocking IM nailing and LC-DCP fixation in the treatment of distal tibial shaft fracture.
MATERIALS AND METHODS
From August 1998 to August 2001, 23 patients were treated by interlocking IM nail and 15 patients were treated by LC-DCP for distal tibial shaft fracture.
RESULTS
Accoding to Robinson classification, there were 12 type 1 fractures (52.1%) and 11 type 2a fractures (47.8%) in the interlocking IM nailing group, and 4 type 1 fractures (26.7%), 8 type 2a fractures (53.4%) and 3 type 2c fractures (20.07%) in the LC-DCP fixation group. The average time to bony union was 16 weeks in the patients treated with interlocking IM nail and 12 weeks in the patients treated with LC-DCP. In the functional outcome (according to Klemm and Borner), 18 patients treated (78.2%) with interlocking IM nail showed satisfactory results and 13 patients (86.6%) treated with LC-DCP had satisfactory results.
CONCLUSION
We concluded that more satisfactory results could be obtained with LC-DCP fixation compared with interlocking IM nailing in the treatment of the distal tibial fracture.

Fractures of the Femur associated with the Hip Arthroplasty
Sung Kwan Hwang, Young Sang Lee, Jin Soo Park
J Korean Soc Fract 1999;12(4):837-843.   Published online October 31, 1999
DOI: https://doi.org/10.12671/jksf.1999.12.4.837
AbstractAbstract PDF
Periprosthetic fractures as a complication of hip arthroplasty are uncommon. However, the incidence has been increafed recently especially in cementless or press-fit arthroplasties. The need to achieve a tight fit of the prosthesis in the bone when using cementless component has led to increased risk of periprosthetic fractures. We have experienced periprosthetic fractures occurred in 52 cases(51 patients) among 814 hip arthroplastic from January 1990 to December 1997. Among the 52 cases of periprosthetic fractures, 5 cases were occurred in cemented femoral stem(5 cases among the total 236 cases of cemented femoral stem : 2.1%), and 47 cases were occurred in the cementless type of femoral stem(47 cases among the total 578 cases of cementless type of femoral stem : 8.1%). There were 43 cases of intraoperative fracture and the rest was occurred postoperatively. According to the Johannson classification, type I fractures were 28 cases, type II fractures were 20 cases, and type III fractures were 4 cases. In postoperative periprosthetic fractures, according to the Vancouver classification, type A fracture was 1 case, typeB 1 fractures were 4 cases, typeB2 fractures were 2 cases, and type C fractures were 2 cases. The accurate preoperative templating and prophylactic managemnet of the risk factors are important for reducing the incidence of periprosthetic fractures.
