Abstract

Objectives: This study aims to compare the radiologicaland functional results of adult patients with isolated ulnardiaphyseal fractures treated with plate and new-generationlocked intramedullary nail (IMN).Patients and methods: The study included 57 patients(38 males, 19 females; mean age 39.1 years; range, 18 to 77years) with isolated ulnar diaphyseal fractures treated withIMN or plate fixation between January 2008 and December2017. Thirty patients (Plate group) were treated with platefixation and 27 patients (IMN group) with IMN. Functionalresults were evaluated according to the Grace-Eversmannevaluation system and the disabilities of the arm, shoulder andhand (DASH) questionnaire.Results: The mean union time was 12.8±1.2 weeks in theIMN group and 13.7±1.4 weeks in the plate group (p=0.092).The mean operation time was significantly shorter in theIMN group (30 minutes) than in the plate group (46 minutes;p

Özet

Amaç: Bu çalışmada plak ve yeni nesil kilitli intramedüller çivi (İMÇ) ile tedavi edilen izole ulna diyafiz kırığı olan erişkin hastaların radyolojik ve fonksiyonel sonuçları karşılaştırıldı. Hastalar ve yöntemler: Çalışmaya Ocak 2008 - Aralık 2017 tarihleri arasında İMÇ veya plak fiksasyonu ile tedavi edilen izole ulna diyafiz kırığı olan 57 hasta (38 erkek, 19 kadın; ort. yaş 39.1 yıl; dağılım, 18-77 yıl) dahil edildi. Otuz hasta (Plak grubu) plak fiksasyonu ve 27 hasta (İMÇ grubu) İMÇ ile tedavi edildi. Fonksiyonel sonuçlar Grace-Eversmann değerlendirme sistemi ve kol, omuz ve el sorunları (DASH) anketine göre değerlendirildi. Bulgular: Ortalama kaynama süresi İMÇ grubunda 12.8±1.2 hafta ve plak grubunda 13.7±1.4 hafta idi (p=0.092). Ortalama ameliyat süresi İMÇ grubunda (30 dakika) plak grubundan (46 dakika; p
