Abstract

Introduction: Fractures of the femoral shaft are a major reason morbidity and mortality in patients with lower extremity injuries. Intramedullary nailing has many advantages over the other forms of internal and external fixation. From March 1995 to May 2001, 71 fractures of the femoral shaft of 69 patients were treated by interlocking intramedullary nailing. In this article, it was aimed to identity problems and to evaluated the outcomes of this method of treatment. Material and Methods: Fivety-four patients have had unilateral acute fracture, two have had bilateral acute fracture and 13 have had pseudoarthrosis. Twenty-nine patients, were women and 40 were men. The mean age of the patients was 40.8 years. The mean follow-up period was 41 months. The clinical and radiological evaluations of the patients were performed by using the criteria of Thoresen et al. Results: The mean union time for acute fractures and pseudoarthroses were 21.8 and 22.4 weeks, respectively. According to the criteria of Thoresen et al., the results of 58 fractures of 56 patients with acute. fractures were 45 (77.6%) perfect, 10 (17.2%) good and the results of 13 patients with pseudoarthroses were 8 (61.5%) perfect, 2 (15.4%) good. Conclusion: The advantages of intramedullary nailing for fractures and pseudoarthroses of the femoral shaft are high rates of union and low rates of complication, good restoration of shaft alignment,early functional use of the extremity and a high comfort of the patients. It was concluded that interlocking intramedullary nailing should be considered as the first choice for the treatment of fractures and pseudoarthroses of the femoral shaft, when suitable indications and technical conditions are available.

Özet

Giriş: Femur cisim kınklan alt ekstremite yaralanma! hastalarda önemli bir morbidité ve mortalité nedenidir. İntramedüller çivileme internal fiksasyonun diğer formları ve eksternal fiksasyona göre bir çok avantajlara sahiptir. Mart 1995 - Mayıs 2001 tarihleri arasında 69 hastanın 71 femur cisim kırığı kilitli İntramedüller çivileme ile tedavi edildi. Bu yazıda, bu tedavi metodunun sonuçlarını değerlendirilmesi ve problemlerin ortaya konması amaçlandı. Hastalar ve Yöntem: Ellidört hasta tek taraflı akut femur cisim kırıklı, iki hasta çift taraflı akut femur cisim kırıklı ve 13 hasta femur cisim psödoartrozlu hasta idi. Hastaların 29'u kadın, 40'ı erkek olup, yaş ortalaması 40.8 yıl idi. Hastaların ortalama izlem süresi 41 ay idi. Hastaların klinik ve radyolojik değerlendirmeleri, Thoresen ve ark.'!arının değerlendirme kriterleri kullanılarak yapıldı. Bulgular: Akut kırıklar için ortalama kaynama süresi 21.8 hafta iken, pseudoartroz tanısıyla öpere edilen hastalar için ortalama kaynama süresi 22.4 hafta idi. Thoresen ve arkalarının değerlendirme kriterlerine göre 58 akut kırıklı 56 hastanın 45'inde (%77.6) çok iyi, 10'unda iyi (%17.2) sonuç elde edilirken, 13 pseudoartrozlu hastanın sekizinde çok iyi (%61.5), ikisinde iyi (%15.4) sonuç elde edildi. Sonuç: Femur cisim kınklan ve pseodoartrozlarında İntramedüller çivilemenin avantajlan yüksek kaynama ve düşük komplikasyon oranlanna sahip olması, cisim diziliminin iyi restore edilmesi, ekstremitenin erken dönemde fonksiyonel olarak kullanılması ve yüksek hasta konforudur. Uygun endikasyon ve teknik koşullann sağlanması halinde, femur cisim kınklan ya da psödoartrozlarının tedavisinde, İntramedüller çivilemenin ilk tercih olarak göz önünde bulundurulması gerektiği sonucuna varıldı.
