Spread the loveKeeping a supply of band-aids in your first aid kit is essential for those unexpected cuts, scrapes, or minor injuries. But with so many types and brands on the market, it can be overwhelming to choose the right one for your needs. To help cut through the confusion, we sought the expertise of doctors and wound specialists to find out which band-aids they recommend the most ...
5 de jul. de 2015 · Background Symptomatic hardware represents the most frequent complication reported following surgical treatment of patellar fracture. For this reason, some authors suggested using nonabsorbable sutures to fix the fracture with various techniques. The aim of this study was to evaluate clinical and radiological results of patients treated following a modified Pyriford technique using a FiberWire ...
Suture materials have multiple applications in orthopaedic surgery ranging from closure of surgical wounds, repair of fascia, muscles, tendons, ligaments, joint capsules, and cerclage or tension band of certain fractures. The quality of tissue repair is dependent on multiple variables including tissue characteristics, material properties of the ...
28 de feb. de 2019 · There was no significant difference in the fracture type according to the Mayo classification between the groups. The re-operation rate was significantly higher in the tension band wiring group (36%) compared with both the plate group (11%, p = 0.03) and the suture group (2%, p = 0.002). There were two revision fixations in the tension band ...
5 de jul. de 2015 · Chatakondu et al. found a significantly lower tensile strength for Ti-Cron sutures compared with stainless steel wire (14.80 vs 34.91 kg) . McGreal et al. reported that braided polyester suture is an acceptable alternative to wire in tension-band fixation after testing cadaveric patellae for >20,000 cycles of knee flexion and extension .
Fibrous joints are where adjacent bones are strongly united by fibrous connective tissue. The gap filled by connective tissue may be narrow or wide. The three types of fibrous joints are sutures, gomphoses, and syndesmoses. A suture is the narrow fibrous joint that unites most bones of the skull.
27 de jun. de 2023 · Tension band wire fixation (TBWF) using k-wires and figure-of-eight metal wire is commonly used for treating simple, displaced olecranon fractures (Mayo type 2A). The biomechanical principle of the TBWF construct is to achieve absolute fracture stability through functional elbow movement and converting tensile forces into compression through the activation of the triceps and brachialis.
