ABSTRACT
BACKGROUND: Ilioinguinal approach and modified Stoppa approach are commonly used to treat pelvic and acetabular fractures, but which one is safer and more effective remains controversial, so a meta-analysis is necessary.OBJECTIVE: To compare the efficacy of modified Stoppa approach and ilioinguinal approach for pelvic and/or acetabular fractures.METHODS: A computer-based retrieval of Cochrane library, PubMed, Embase, OVID, CNKI, WanFang, CBM and VIP databases was performed for the randomized controlled trials concerning modified Stoppa approach and ilioinguinal approach for pelvic and/or acetabular fractures published before October 2016. Meta-analysis was performed on RevMan5.3 software.RESULTS AND CONCLUSION: (1) Finally 11 randomized controlled trials were enrolled, including 722 patients. (2) Meta-analysis showed that the operation time, intraoperative blood loss, length of incision, volume of drainage and hospitalization time in the modified Stoppa approach group were significantly less than those in the ilioinguinal approach group (P 0.05). (3) To conclude, modified Stoppa approach is safer and more effective for pelvic and/or acetabular fractures.
ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the clinical efficacy of posterior anti‐rotation plate plus cancellous screws for treating unicondylar Hoffa fracture and to systematically analyze its injury mechanism ,clinical diagnosis ,treatment method and clinical fol‐low up results .Methods The imageological and clinical data in 9 cases of unicondylar Hoffa fractures treated by anti‐rotation plate plus cancellous screws from March 2009 to April 2014 were retrospectively analyzed .Results All fractures were healed within 4 months .The average follow up time of the patients was 34 months(24~50 months) .Seven cases obtained the anatomic reduction and 2 cases got the satisfactory reduction .The reduction loss and fixation failure were not found in all the cases .One cases of wound infection occurred early after operation and healed within 1 week after anti-infection .One case of knee joint ankylosis complicating pain occurred during the follow up period .According to the KSSs scoring standard ,the knee joint prognosis function scores were ex‐cellent in 4 cases ,good in 4 cases and poor in 1 case .Conclusion Using anti‐rotation plate combined with cancellous screws for con‐ducting the Hoffa fracture fixation can confront the strong shear force beard by femoral condyle with the advantages of rigid fixa‐tion ,reliability fixation and early weight bearing functional exercise .
ABSTRACT
Objective To assess the outcomes of the surgical treatment of supination external rotation trimalleolar fractures,comparing the techniques of lateral plating and antiglide plating as described previously.Methods This is a retrospective review.A total of 31 patients meeting our inclusion criteria,with supination external rotation trimalleolar fractures surgically treated between 2009 and 2011,were studied.17 patients were treated with antiglide plating,whereas the remaining 14 patients underwent traditional lateral plating.They were followed up by a period ranging from 14 to 38 months(average,26 months).The functional results were evaluated with olerud and molander scoring system described previously.All the data including time to surgery,operating room time,tourniquet time,hospital stay and ankle joint function scores,were respectively analyzed in accordance with the complete randomized design t-test.Results There was no statistically significant in time to surgery,operating room,tourniquet time,hospital stay and ankle joint functional scores.Conclusions The outcome of the surgical management of supination external rotation trimalleolar fracture is comparable with both techniques.Our data do not support one technique over the other.
