12 de jun. de 2024 · Triplane or triplanar fractures are of the distal tibia only occurring in adolescents. As the physiological closure of the physeal plate begins medially, the lateral (open) physis is prone to this type of fracture. Most authors regard it as a type 4 Salter-Harris fracture.

24 de jun. de 2024 · Mechanism. There are two types of supracondylar fractures: extension (95-98%) and flexion (<5%) types. Extension type supracondylar fractures typically occur as a result of a fall on a hyper-extended elbow. When this occurs, the olecranon acts as a fulcrum after engaging in the olecranon fossa.
24 de jun. de 2024 · Medial epicondyle fractures represent almost all epicondyle fractures and occur when there is avulsion of the medial epicondyle. They are typically seen in children and can be challenging to identify. Failure to diagnose these injuries can lead to significant long term disability.
Hace 2 días · Frontal radiograph of the distal tibia shows a smooth and sclerotic line at the fracture ends (blue arrows) in a patient 14 months after the original fracture, signs of non-union. There is some external callus formation present (white arrow).
17 de jun. de 2024 · Stress Fracture. Fractures produced as a result of repetitive stress on bone. Most common locations. Lower extremity (calcaneus, tibia, fibula) Thoracic vertebra. Sacrum. Ilium. Pubic bone.
22 de jun. de 2024 · Unstable distal tibia fractures are common and potentially devastating injuries that typically require operative treatment to restore the anatomical tibiotalar relationship. They can commonly involve a significant degree of comminution, joint impaction, and bone loss.
23 de jun. de 2024 · Background and objectives: The treatment of extra-articular distal tibia fractures is still a subject of debate and frequently necessitates surgical treatment, and intramedullary nailing (IMN) offers a minimally invasive approach with excellent results. Important factors in these procedures are positioning, operative duration, and radiation exposure.
