Abstract

BACKGROUND: The purpose of this study is to present and validate a hinge-fixator technique for the treatment of open tibial fractures, which has advantages in application and the follow up period. METHODS: The technique was used in open tibia fractures of 14 adult patients. Using this method, initial anatomic reduction was achieved and temporary stability was obtained on the hinge-fixator after applications were completed. Patients’ radiological and clinical results were analyzed using the Paley’s criteria at the time of the last follow-up. RESULTS: Patients were brought in for followed up analysis over a 5.4 year period. According to Paley, two patients had ‘good’ and 12 patients had ‘excellent’ radiological results, while the functional result were excellent (n=13) and good (n=1), respectively. CONCLUSION: The hinge-fixator technique is a fast and easy method that contributes to shorter operation times, reduced radia- tion exposure, and more comfortable treatment periods.

Özet

AMAÇ: Bu çalışmada, sirküler fiksatör-menteşe kombinasyonu ile daha kolay ve hızlı fiksatör uygulaması sağlayan, klinik ve radyolojik sonuçları geliştiren yeni bir uygulama yöntemi anlatıldı. GEREÇ VE YÖNTEM: Önerdiğimiz uygulama yöntemi ile 14 tibia kırığı olgusu tedavi edildi. Hastaların 10’u erkek, dördü kadın ve ortalama yaş 41.3 (dağılım, 24-58) yıl idi. Sirküler fiksatör menteşe tekniği kullanılarak, öncelikle hızlı anatomik redüksiyon ve geçici kırık stabilizasyonu sağlandı. Skopi kontrolünden sonra fiksatör uygulaması tamamlanarak gerçek kırık stabilizasyonu yapıldı. Hastalardan elde edilen veriler ve son kontrollerde alınan klinik ve radyolojik sonuçlar Paley kriterlerine göre değerlendirildi. BULGULAR: Tüm hastalarda solid osseoz kaynama elde edilerek, ortalama 5.4 (dağılım, 3-8) yıl boyunca takip yapıldı. Son değerlendirmede Paley’e göre radyolojik olarak 2 iyi, 12 mükemmel ve klinik olarak da 13 mükemmel, 1 iyi sonuç elde edildi. TARTIŞMA: Kırıkların sirküler fiksatör-menteşe yöntemi ile tedavisinde hızlı ve kolay bir uygulama imkanı sağlanmaktadır. Bu yöntemde daha kısa cerrahi süresi, daha az radyasyon maruziyeti, daha kısa hastane yatış süreleri ve daha seyrek hastene kontrolleri ile birlikte daha konforlu bir tedavi süreci sağlanmaktadır.
