Download or read book Displaced Femoral Neck Fractures written by John T. Gorczyca and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2021-10-15 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Utilizing detailed case presentations from experts in the field, this book presents common clinical scenarios involving patients who have sustained displaced femoral neck fractures, discussing the injury mechanism, early treatment, potential treatment options, risks and complications involved. The style of presentation, the ease of readability, the use of appropriate and relevant cases to highlight the learning points, and the discussion of the decision-making process are all unique features of the book's approach. Using this tailored process, the each topic is reviewed and the rationale for what appears to be the optimal treatment - hemiarthroplasty or total hip replacement, for example - is provided to the reader, emphasizing that the ultimate decision requires the combination of science and judgment, both of which are continually evolving. Additional chapters present ongoing controversies in the management of these challenging fractures, as well as complications such as aseptic necrosis, symptomatic hardware and nonunions. Portable and concise, orthopedic and trauma surgeons, residents and fellows alike will find Displaced Femoral Neck Fractures a practical and user-friendly resource.

Download or read book Fractures of the Hip written by Lorenz Büchler and published by Springer. This book was released on 2019-07-27 with total page 196 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: This book is a state-of-the-art reference resource for surgeons treating patients with intra-articular fractures of the hip. It serves as a guide to assessing and classifying typical fracture patterns to reach the correct diagnosis and helps select the appropriate up-to-date treatment strategy. It describes in detail the complex anatomy of the acetabulum and proximal femur, and also explains the assessment of various radiological imaging techniques for the pelvis and the hip. The book highlights the advantages and disadvantages of traditional as well as newer surgical approaches to the hip and pelvis, such as surgical hip dislocation, hip arthroscopy, the pararectus approach, and combined approaches. For each surgical approach, the authors identify typical complications and document long-term outcomes. It also includes chapters on the management of specific fracture types, such as acetabular, femoral head (Pipkin), and femoral neck fractures, as well as traumatic hip dislocations, and pathological fractures due to osteoporosis or tumors. This book is part of the series Fracture Management Joint by Joint.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: While arthroplasty is the preferred treatment for most elderly patients with displaced femoral neck fractures, internal fixation is the treatment of choice in the majority of patients below the age of 65 as a joint-preserving procedure. The osteosynthesis of fractures of the femoral neck in the elderly has been partly abandoned during the last years due to the poor clinical outcomes following the conventional fixation with parallel screws or DHS. Based on clinical evidence and laboratory testing, the novel method of biplane double-supported screw fixation (BDSF) offers much better fixation stability, reflecting in excellent clinical outcomes. With its innovative biomechanic principle, the BDSF method provides supreme stability for cannulated screw fixation, achieving up to 44% higher axial fixation strength in vitro, and a rate of bone union reaching up to 96.6% in clinical practice, which is much higher than the conventional parallel screw fixation data.The method of BDSF provides supreme stability by buttressing two out of three medially diverging cannulated screws on the inferior femoral neck cortex and supporting the steeper inferior screw on the posterior femoral neck cortex. The two calcar screws are oriented in different coronal inclinations intended to provide constant fixation strength during different patient activities and load directions. Biomechanically, the most effective component is the inferior screw placed at an obtuse angle and supported on a large area along the inferior and posterior cortex of the femoral neck following its spiral anterior curve.Given the clinical outcomes, BDSF is the perfect technique for femoral neck fracture fixation, as the fracture healing rate is high at 96% with this approach. Therefore, BDSF is not only a treatment alternative to conventional fixation, but also a much better procedure. Thus, BDSF should be routinely applied, and conventional fixation gradually abandoned in clinical practice (this has been the approach in our institution over the last ten years).This book describes the full surgical technique of the method of BDSF for femoral neck fracture osteosynthesis; quality criteria and surgical recommendations for successful BDSF implementation, according to the vast clinical experience of ten years with this highly effective method.A novel surgical approach for hip arthroplasty is described in this book. The current trends aimed at decreasing operative trauma and blood loss have been not entirely satisfied with respect to most of the standard approaches for hip arthroplasty. These surgeries are often associated with considerable blood loss and the necessity for restricting patients activities in the postoperative period due to impaired joint stability and risk of dislocations.This book describes the full surgical technique of the novel anatomical direct lateral approach for hip arthroplasty, aimed at decreasing blood loss, minimizing operative trauma, and optimizing joint stability. This technique is associated with minimal blood loss and high joint stability. Patients are allowed to perform activities within the normal range of motion and without any special restrictions in the early postoperative period.This book describes also the history of internal fixation in femoral neck fractures, as well as the biomechanics of femoral neck fracture osteosynthesis and the role of the implants.

Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The main purpose and primary objective of this project is to identify and summarize the best evidence comparing frequency of secondary operations required for displaced proximal femur fractures treated with internal fixation, using a femoral head sparing procedure vs. arthroplasty, which sacrifices the femoral head. Secondary objectives were to compare internal fixation versus arthroplasty with regard to post-operative mortality, morbidity, mobility, pain, quality of life, and cost-effectiveness for a minimum of two years following the initial operation, to allow inclusion of statistics and outcomes associated with re-operations.

Its bullet-pointed outline format makes it a perfect quick-reference, and its content breadth covers the most commonly encountered orthopedic problems in practice.
Download or read book Hip Arthroscopy and Hip Joint Preservation Surgery written by Shane J. Nho and published by Springer Nature. This book was released on 2022-08-01 with total page 1874 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: The field of hip preservation surgery has evolved over the past decade as our understanding of hip pathomechanics and pathomorphology has expanded. The published literature on non-arthritic hip pathology, for example, has grown exponentially. The topics of controversy in the past decade have been answered in some cases, but new questions have also arisen. In addition to the 99 chapters in the original edition – most of which will be retained and updated as applicable – there will be over 30 brand new chapters focusing on new and more sophisticated techniques from authors that have been the pioneers of the field. The text is divided into nine thematic sections, covering the breadth of the topic and the current state of the art: basic science of the hip; operative basics for hip arthroscopy and open hip preservation surgery; pediatric hip conditions; approaches to disorders of the hip and pelvis; enthesopathy and neuromuscular disorders; hip fractures and instability; avascular necrosis; hip cartilage restoration; and oncologic conditions. Throughout, there is a heavy emphasis on surgical techniques, and video clips will be included in selected chapters. Written by edited by thought leaders and seasoned practitioners in the field, this new edition of Hip Arthroscopy and Hip Joint Preservation Surgery will remain the gold standard for orthopedic surgeons and sports medicine specialists, expanding on the range of techniques available to clinicians treating injuries to and disorders of the hip.
