We report one case of a 28-year-old man following a high-energy trauma. After performing closed reduction of the metacarpophalangeal joint injury, open reduction of the wrist injury through volar approach was done, and a K-wire fixation was used to stabilize the scaphoid fracture and lunotriquetral joint. After a 16 months＇ follow-up period, the wrist regained a full range of motion without symptoms, and the fractured bone was strengthened in a good position.展开更多

Methods:A total of 96 patients (81 males and 15 females, aged 16-59 years, mean=45 years) with complete dislocation of acromioclavicular join t were treated with Dewars operation (Group A, n=32), internal fixation with K irschner tension band wires (Group B, n=44), or internal fixation with Wolter pl ates (Group C, n=20), respectively, in this study. Eighty-five patients suffere d from acute dislocations and eleven from chronic dislocations. Results:The patients were followed up for 50 months on an aver age. According to Karlssons standard, in Group A, 26 patients were assessed as good, 5 as fair and 1 as poor. In Group B, 20 patients were assessed as good, 1 3 as fair and 11 as poor. In Group C, 15 patients were assessed as good, 4 as fa ir and 1 as poor. The good and fair rates were significantly different between G roup A and Group B, and between Group C and Group B, but no statistical differen ce was found between Group A and Group C. The operating time was ( 52.36 ± 7 .24 ) minutes, ( 67.43 ± 8.11 ) minutes and ( 69.73 ± 8.04 ) minutes in Groups A, B and C, respectively. And the hospitalizing fees were ( 2 400 ± 270) yuan, ( 2 100 ±190) yuan and ( 8 450 ±360) yuan in Groups A, B and C, respectively. Conclusions:Dewars operation is a good and safe method with shorter operating time and lower hospitalizing fee for treating complete disloca tion of acromioclavicular joint. The method is simple without the need of a seco nd operation to remove the implants and with few complications.展开更多

The duration from injury to operation was 2 hours to 7 days. There were 5 left dislocations and 4right dislocations; 8 anterior dislocations and 1 posterior dislocation, including one combined with left scapular fracture and one with left olecranon fracture. Open reduction and internal fixation using K-wires and tension band wires were performed to treat dislocations.Results： All patients were followed up for 6 to 24months, 10 months on average. According to Rockwood＇s rating scale on postoperative sternoclavicular joint, 8 cases achieved excellent outcomes with an average score of 13.88,and the rest case achieved a good outcome with the score of 12. Anatomical reduction was obtained in all cases. There were no such postoperative complications as severe infection, injury to blood vessel and nerve, failure of fixation,etc. Patients were all satisfied with the anatomical reduction and functional recovery.Conclusions： The technique of K-wire and tension band wire fixation is safe, simple, effective, less invasive and has been successfully used in orthopedic surgery. It is effective in treating sternoclavicular joint dislocation though it has some disadvantages.展开更多

A 25 years old male presented with injury to his left hand 6 days following a road traffic accident. Clini- cal examination revealed gross swelling of the hand and diffuse tenderness over the carpometacarpal area. His ra- diographs of the hand showed volar dislocation of the second, third and fourth CMC joints in association with anextra-articular fracture of the base of thumb metacarpal. He was treated by open reduction and percutaneous fixation using Kirschner wires. The functional results were excellent at one year follow-up.展开更多
