ZusammenfassungFragestellung. Die orthograde Nagelung gilt als Methode der Wahl bei Femurfrakturen. Zugangsbedingt sind Komplikationen nicht selten. Bietet die retrograde Nagelung Vorteile und kann sie das Indikationsspektrum erweitern? Methodik. Im Rahmen einer prospektiven Studie wurden 70 Femurfrakturen bei 62 Patienten mit langem retrograden Nagel stabilisiert. Ergebnisse. 50 Patienten (57 Frakturen) wurden 13,3 Monate postoperativ (3–36) nachuntersucht.Mit Ausnahme einer Infektpseudarthrose heilten alle Frakturen zeitgerecht. Die Kniebeugung war bei Schaftfrakturen (32A–C) im Zeitraum von 12 Monaten in 81% der Fälle im Normbereich, bei distalen Frakturen (33A–C) in 44%. Eine Streckhemmung bestand bei keinem Patienten. Zwei Patienten wiesen eine Beinverkürzung von 1 cm auf.Rotationsfehlstellungen über 5° bestanden nicht. Das funktionelle Ergebnis (Neer) war bei Schaftfrakturen überwiegend ausgezeichnet (89%), bei supra-/supradiakondylären Frakturen in 50% der Fälle.Bei 18 arthroskopiegestützten Materialentfernungen zeigte das Femuropatellargelenk keine pathologischen Veränderungen. Schlussfolgerung. Die retrograde Femurnagelung bietet Vorzüge gegenüber dem orthograden Vorgehen und erweitert die Palette der Behandlungsmethoden.AbstractPurpose of the study. Antegrade intramedullary nailing is seen as a most effective method in the management of femoral fractures. However, complications may arise due to the surgical approach.Can these disadvantages be avoided by using a retrograde approach? Material and methods. In a prospective study 70 femoral fractures in 62 patients were stabilised using a long intramedullary nail by a retrograde approach. Results. We were able to re-examine 50 patients (57 fractures) 13,3 (3–36) months after the operation.Apart from one non-union by infection, all fractures healed in time. Flexion of the knee joint was within a normal ROM in 81% of shaft fractures 12 months or more after the operation, as was the case in 44% of distal fractures. A inhibition of extension was not found in any patient.Two patients had a femoral shortening of up to one centimeter.We observed no rotational malalignement of more than 5°.The clinical results were excellent in 89% of shaft fractures, and in 50% of supra-/diacondylar fractures. In 18 cases a nail removal was already performed, thereby allowing an arthroscopical follow-up inspection of the knee joint.No knee pathology due to nailing was found in either case. Conclusion. Our results show the advantages of retrograde intramedullary nailing in comparison to the antegrade method.

BACKGROUND With regard to the treatment of non-reconstructable radial head fractures, both the resection and the implantation of a prosthesis are considered. Various studies have shown poor results concerning the resection of the radial head with accompanying osteoligamentous injuries. Due to these experiences, different types of prosthesis have been developed. However, the majority of them were not convincing. Judet developed a type of a bipolar prosthesis which had been modeled on the anatomy of the radial head. The aim of our retrospective study consists in examining the results of the Judet prosthesis. PATIENTS AND METHODS Between 1995 and 2007, 50 patients were treated with an arthroplasty. These were, corresponding to the classification by McKee and Jupiter, 19 type III and 31 type IV fractures. Thirty patients were available for a follow-up after 2.5 years on average. RESULTS According to the Morrey Score, 16 very good, 7 good, 3 fair and 4 bad results could be obtained. Following the criteria of Radin and Riseborough, 17 patients achieved a good, 9 a fair and 4 a bad result. The complications which appeared were: one patient with aseptic loosening, one patient with luxation of a prosthesis, one persistent radial joint instability, three patients with heterotopic ossification and four patients with protrusion relative to the capitulum humeri.

IntroductionRevision of cemented hip arthroplasty after periprosthetic fractures of the femur is a demanding procedure. Many different technical devices have been developed for this purpose. This paper presents a new surgical technique of cement removal avoiding excessive exposure of the fracture site.Materials and methodsIn six patients with periprosthetic fractures of the femur following hip arthroplasty (Johansson Type II and III) cement removal was performed by means of advancing a retrograde nail through the intercondylar notch of the knee.ResultsIn all cases the cement was removed completely. Intraoperative complications or significant knee problems were not observed.ConclusionThe intracondylar approach provides a simple, rapid and less invasive technique for cement removal in revision hip arthroplasty.

Nicht selten ist orthograde Nagelung aufgrund des Zuganges mit Komplikationen behaftet. Ist die retrograde Nagelung in der Lage, diese Nachteile zu umgehen? Im Rahmen einer prospektiven Studie wurden 70 Femurschaftfrakturen bei 62 Patienten mittels langem retrogradem Nagel stabilisiert. Die Indikation war meistens gegeben bei sehr weit distal gelegenen Oberschenkelfrakturen, offenen Knieverletzungen, ipsilateralen Acetabu-lumfrakturen, Adipositas und lagerungsbedingt (Polytrauma). Komplikationen: 1 Fehllage eines Verriegelungsbolzens, 1 Valgus-Fehlstellung, 1 Wundinfekt, 1 Nagelprotrusion, 1 Infekt-pseudarthrose. 50 Patienten (57 Frakturen) konnten 13,3 Monate nach Operation nachuntersucht werden. Funktionelles Ergebnis nach Neer bei 56 Extremitaten ausgezeichnet (n=42) bis befriedigend (n = 14). Unsere bisherigen guten Ergebnisse zeigen Vorteile der retrograden Nagelung gegenuber dem orthograden Verfahren.

ZusammenfassungGrundlagen: Wir berichten über die Behandlung von 120 Tibiakopffrakturen, die im Zeitraum von 1991 bis 1998 behandelt wurden. 97 Patienten erhielten eine operative und 19 Patienten eine konservative Therapie. Das Durchschnittsalter der Verletzten lag bei 48,5 Jahren (16 bis 86 Jahre). Das männliche Geschlecht war annähernd zweimal (64%) so oft betroffen wie das weibliche (36%). Am häufigsten wurde der laterale Kondylus (62%) des linken Kniegelenkes (58%) verletzt. Die häufigste Ursache war der Verkehrsunfall (48%). Methodik: 48 Patienten konnten klinisch und röntgenologisch im Mittel nach 26,8 Monaten nachuntersucht werden. Ergebnisse: Insgesamt traten bei drei (2,5%) osteosynthetisch versorgten Frakturen tiefe Infektionen auf. Bis auf 4 nachuntersuchte Patienten waren alle in der Lage, ihr Bein 90° oder mehr zu beugen. Ein Streckdefizit lag bei 11 Patienten mit Häufung bei den B-2-Frakturen vor. Mit zwei Ausnahmen zeigten sich bei allen nachuntersuchten operativ versorgten Patienten Arthrosezeichen. Diese traten vermehrt bei C-Frakturen auf. Hier fanden sich erhebliche Diskrepanzen zwischen klinischen Angaben und dem Röntgenergebnis. Bei der subjektiven Bewertung gaben 48,7% der operierten Patienten ein sehr gutes bis gutes Ergebnis an. 43,6% der Patienten waren mäßig zufrieden und 7,7% fanden das Ergebnis sehr schlecht. Bei der Gesamtwertung nachCourvoisier zeigte sich in 50% der operierten Fälle ein sehr gutes bis gutes Ergebnis. In 39,5% ergab sich ein mäßiges und in 10,5% ein schlechtes Ergebnis. Das verhältnismäßig schlechte Abschneiden der operativ versorgten Fälle ist auf die Überrepräsentanz von AO-B3 und AO-C-Frakturen zurückzuführen. Schlußfolgerungen: Es läßt sich sagen, daß mit 50% subjektiv zufriedenen Patienten auch bei hoher Wundheilungs- und Infektionsgefahr (3,4% bzw. 2,5%) eine operative Versorgung sinnvoll erscheint. Da es sich bei der Tibiakopffraktur bis auf den Typ AO-B1 um eine komplexe Gelenkverletzung handelt, ist eine offene anatomische Rekonstruktion notwendig, auch wenn diese eine posttraumatische Arthrose sicher zeitlich nur hinauszögern, nicht aber verhindern kann.SummaryBackground: We report on the treatment of 120 tibial head fractures in our clinic between 1991 and 1998. In 97 patients an operation was necessary, 19 patients were treated non-operatively. The average age of the injured was 48,5 years (16 to 86 years). Male patients were affected twice (64%) as often as female patients (36%). The most frequent location of the fracture was the lateral condylus (62%) of the left knee (58%). The main cause was an accident (48%). Methods: In 48 cases on an average 26.8 month a follow up including clinical examination and X-ray was possible. Results: Altogether we saw infections in 8 (6.7%) of the fractures treated operatively. Except 4 all patients were able to show a knee flexion of more than 90°. In 11 patients (mostly B 2-fractures) a deficit of extension was detected. All but 2 of the patients treated operatively had radiological signs of arthrosis. These signs were seen most in C-fractures. We found considerable differences between the clinical and the radiological outcome. Concerning the subjective assessment 19 patients (48.7%) treated operatively stated very good an good results. 17 patients (43.6%) were satisfied, 3 patients (7.7%) estimated the outcome as very poor. Using the score of Courvoisier in 19 (50%) of the fractures treated by an operation we achieved very good and good results, in 15 (39.5%) moderate results and in 4 cases (10.5%) bad results. Due to an excess of AO-B3- and AO-C-fractures the injuries treated operatively caused poor results more frequently than injuries treated non-opertatively. Conclusions: Considering 50% of content patients the operative treatment of tibial head fractures seems to be useful in spite of the high risk of wound healing complications or infection (3.4% or 2.5%). Since the tibial head fracture is a complex injury of the knee joint an open anatomical reconstruction is necessary even if the operation can’t avoid the posttraumatic arthrosis, but it can delay it.

In der vorliegenden Arbeit wird über eine ungewöhnliche Fistelbildung nach hüftendoprothetischer Versorgung berichtet. Es handelt sich dabei um eine 75jährige Patientin, bei der sich 42 Monate nach Implantation einer Hüfttotalendoprothese wegen einer medialen Schenkelhalsfraktur im Rahmen einer Pfannenlockerung eine periproktitische Fistel entwickelte. Ein gleichartiger Kasus, wie wir ihn in unserem Krankengut beobachteten, ist uns nicht bekannt. Aus diesem Grund möchten wir den Krankheitsverlauf, erste Symptome sowie die Art und den Erfolg der Behandlung darstellen.In this paper we present the unusual case of a fistula after implantation of a total hip prothesis. In a 75-year old woman with a fracture of the thigh bone, we observed a paraproctic fistula 42 months after implantation of a total hip prosthesis. To our knowledge there have been no such cases reported with this complication. Thus, we wound like to demonstrate the progress of the illness, the first symptoms, and the kind and success of the treatment.
