Abstract

Introduction: The
aim of this study was the comparison of the traction table and supine position
without traction table in double axis femoral nailing of intertrochanteric
fractures in terms of reduction quality and complication rates.

Material and method:
Sixty-three patients with a mean age of 68.54±16.42 (29-97) were retrospectively
analyzed. 42 patients were operated without the traction table, 21 patients
were operated with the traction table. Collodiaphyseal angles and Baumgartner
reduction criteria were used for radiologic evaluation. The union time of the
fractures, complications, and nonunion cases were assessed.

Results: The restoration of
collodiaphyseal angle was better in the group using the traction table, the
reduction quality could not be restored well in the group without the traction
table (p<0.05). The mean union
time was calculated as 3.2±2.2 months in patients operated with the traction
table while in patients who were operated without a traction table was
calculated as 4.26±2.23 months (p>0.05).
Cut-out and nonunion complications were more common in the group operated
without traction table. Increasing difference of the collodiaphyseal angle was
found to be correlated with the complication rates and union time.







Conclusion:
Better reduction was achieved in the patient group that operation performed
using the traction table and the complication rates were low in this group.
Operation with the traction table should be the first choice for
intertrochanteric fractures. The supine position without traction table may be
a preferable treatment method for intertrochanteric fractures when the traction
table is not available.

Abstract

Amaç: Bu
çalışmanın amacı, intertrokanterik kırıkların supin pozisyonunda traksiyon
masası kullanılarak ve kullanılmadan çift eksenli femur çivisi ile tedavisinde
redüksiyon kalitesi ve komplikasyon oranları açısından karşılaştırılmasıdır.



Gereç
yöntem:
Ortalama yaşı 68,54±16,42 (29-97) olan 60 hasta
retrospektif olarak incelendi. 42 hasta traksiyon masası olmadan ameliyat
edildi, 21 hasta traksiyon masasıyla ameliyat edildi. Radyolojik değerlendirme
için kollodiafizel açıları ve Baumgartner redüksiyon kriterleri kullanıldı.
Kırıkların kaynama süresi, komplikasyonlar ve kaynamama vakaları
değerlendirildi.



Bulgular:
Kollodiyafizel açı restorasyonu, traksiyon masasının kullanıldığı grupta daha
iyiydi, traksiyon masasının olmadığı grupta iyi bir redüksiyon kalitesi elde
edilemedi (p<0,05). Traksiyon
masası ile ameliyat edilen hastalarda ortalama kaynama süresi 3,2±2,2 ay iken
traksiyon masası olmadan ameliyat edilen hastalarda 4,26±2,23 ay olarak
hesaplandı (p>0,05). Traksiyon
masası olmadan opere edilen grupta vida penetrasyonu ve kaynamama
komplikasyonları daha fazlaydı. Kollodiafizel açı farkının artmasının komplikasyon
oranları ve kaynama süresi ile korele olduğu saptandı.



Sonuç: Sonuç
olarak, traksiyon masası kullanılarak opere edilen hasta grubunda daha iyi
redüksiyon elde edildiği ve komplikasyon oranlarının bu grupta düşük olduğu
görüldü. İntertrokanterik kırıklar için traksiyon masası ile operasyon ilk
seçenek olmalıdır. Traksiyon masasız supin pozisyonu traksiyon masası mevcut
olmadığında intertrokanterik kırıklar için tercih edilen bir tedavi yöntemi
olabilir
