The purpose of this study is to retrospectively evaluate the clinical outcomes of 18 patients with large coronal shear fractures of the capitellum and lateral trochlea that underwent open reduction and internal fixation with headless compression screws.
Eighteen patients were identified (16 women, 2 men) with an average age of 45 years and an average follow-up of 26 months. Fractures were classified according to the Dubberley classification as 11 type-1A injuries and 7 type-2A injuries.
All patients, with the exception of 1, had good to excellent functional results by the Broberg-Morrey scale (mean score, 93.3). Average arc of motion was 128 degrees in flexion/extension and 176 degrees in pronation/supination. Radiographically, 3 patients had subsequent development of avascular necrosis and 5 developed arthrosis. No significant negative correlation was noted between the development of avascular necrosis and clinical outcome. Minor complications occurred in 2 patients, but there were no re-operations.
Headless compression screw fixation allows for stable fixation in patients with large coronal shear fractures of the distal humerus without posterior comminution.
本研究旨在回顾性评估 18 例采用无头加压螺钉切开复位内固定治疗的大型冠状面肱骨小头和外侧滑车剪切骨折患者的临床结果。
共纳入 18 例患者(16 名女性,2 名男性),平均年龄 45 岁,平均随访 26 个月。骨折根据 Dubberley 分类分为 11 型 1A 损伤和 7 型 2A 损伤。
除 1 例外,所有患者均采用 Broberg-Morrey 评分评估,获得了良好至优秀的功能结果(平均评分为 93.3)。平均屈伸活动弧为 128°,旋前/旋后活动弧为 176°。影像学上,3 例患者随后发生了股骨头坏死,5 例患者发生了关节炎。股骨头坏死的发生与临床结果之间无明显负相关。2 例患者出现轻微并发症,但无再次手术。
