A localization method for guide pin insertion points in the treatment of femoral neck fracture with closed reduction and percutaneous cannulated screw fixation.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Closed reduction and percutaneous cannulated screw fixation is the preferred surgical method for treating femoral neck fractures in elderly patients under 70 years old. The key to the operation is the precise insertion of the guide pin after the successful reduction. However, there is no universally accepted standard for the localization of the guide pin insertion point. This study introduces our invention of a localization method for guide pin insertion points.

Methods

We used fluoroscopic frequency, operative time, union rates, and complications to retrospectively evaluate the treatment and outcome of femoral neck fractures using our localization method for guide pin insertion points. The study included ten patients treated at Affiliated Hospital of Shandong University of Traditional Chinese Medicine between 2010 and 2014 for femoral neck fracture using our localization method for guide pin insertion points.

Results

Our results showed that the mean number of fluoroscopies was 5 (range, 4-8), and the mean operative time was 32 minutes (range, 25-51 minutes). All 10 patients achieved union at an average of 3.4 months (range, 2.8-6.2 months) without complications after the operation. The average follow-up time was 13.2 months (range, 12.2-16 months). The treatment of femoral neck fracture with our localization method for guide pin insertion points resulted in satisfactory curative efficacy without complications.

Conclusions

Our localization method offers distinct advantages, including the accuracy and simplicity of the operation, a low rate of complications, and adequate biomechanical stability. As such, it provides a feasible method for clinical treatment.

Project description:ObjectiveTo compare the effects between computer-assisted and traditional cannulated screw internal fixation on treating femoral neck fracture.MethodsThe search was conducted in Embase, Pubmed, Web of Science, Cochrane Library, China National Knowledge Infrastructure (CNKI) and Wanfang Database from the beginning to August 2020. RevMan5.4 software, which was provided by the International Cochrane Group, was used for the meta-analysis comparing the differences in operation time, intraoperative bleeding volume, fluoroscopy frequency, fracture healing time, total drilling times, Harris score, fracture healing rate, and femoral head necrosis rate between computer-assisted and traditional methods groups.ResultsA total of 1028 patients were included in 16 studies. Primary outcome indicators: Compared with the traditional method group, the computer-assisted group had less operative time (2RCTs, P < 0.00001; 8 non-RCTs, P = 0.009; Overall, P < 0.00001), intraoperative bleeding (1 RCTs, P < 0.00001; 9non-RCTs, P < 0.00001; Overall, P < 0.00001), femoral head necrosis rate (1 RCT, P = 0.11;7 non-RCTs, P = 0.09; Overall, P = 0.02) and higher Harris scores (1 RCT, P < 0.0001; 9 non-RCTs, P = 0.0002; Overall, P < 0.0001), and there were no significant differences in fracture healing rate between the two groups (5 non-RCTs, P = 0.17). Secondary outcomes indicators: The computer-assisted group had a lower frequency of intraoperative fluoroscopy and total number of drills compared with the traditional method group, while there was no significant difference in fracture healing time.ConclusionCompared with the traditional hollow screw internal fixation on the treatment of femoral neck fracture, computer-assisted percutaneous cannulated screw fixation can shorten the operation time and improve the operation efficiency and reduce the X-ray injury of medical staff and help patients obtain a better prognosis. Therefore, computer-assisted percutaneous cannulated screw fixation is a better choice for the treatment of femoral neck fracture. Study registration PROSPERO registration number CRD42020214493.

Project description:BackgroundWe introduced a new surgical method of percutaneous hollow perforated screw (HPS) fixation with concomitant bone-cement injection for the treatment of femoral neck metastasis and evaluated its efficacy for the palliative treatment of patients with advanced cancer.MethodsThe study included 87 patients (39 men and 48 women; mean age [and standard deviation], 64.2 ± 10.2 years; mean body mass index, 24.3 ± 3.2 kg/m2) who underwent percutaneous HPS fixation and cementoplasty (mean cement amount, 19.8 ± 8.3 mL) for the treatment of unilateral or bilateral femoral neck metastasis (total, 95 sites). Anesthesia type, operative time, operative blood loss, pain score changes (according to a visual analog scale [VAS]), walking status, and complications were assessed. The mean duration of follow-up was 10.1 ± 10.8 months (range, 2 to 43 months).ResultsThe majority of procedures were performed with local (3 patients) or spinal (72 patients) anesthesia (total, 75 patients; 86.2%). The mean operative time was 35.9 minutes, and the mean operative blood loss was 97.0 mL. The VAS score for pain improved significantly, from 6.8 ± 2.8 preoperatively to 2.8 ± 2.3 and 2.9 ± 2.8 at 1 and 6 weeks postoperatively (p < 0.001). At 6 weeks postoperatively, 63 (80.8%) of 78 patients were able to walk (with either normal or limping gait, a cane or crutch, or a walker). The prevalence of major local complications (cement leakage into the hip joint, fixation failure) was 10.5% (10 of 95), but major systemic complications (distant cement embolism) were not found.ConclusionsPercutaneous HPS fixation and cementoplasty for the treatment of femoral neck metastasis is a minimally invasive technique that provides effective pain relief and early stabilization. This technique seems to be useful for patients with advanced cancer for whom open surgery would be hazardous.Level of evidenceTherapeutic Level IV.

Project description:BackgroundPercutaneous anterior odontoid screw fixation for odontoid fractures remains challenging due to the complex anatomy of the craniocervical junction. We designed a new guide instrument to help with the placement of guide wire, which have achieved satisfying surgical results. The objective of this study is to evaluate the safety and efficacy of this new tool in percutaneous anterior odontoid screw fixation.MethodsTwenty-nine patients with odontoid fracture were retrospectively evaluated. All patients underwent percutaneous anterior odontoid screw fixation with the traditional guide instrument (n = 13) or the new guide instrument we designed (n = 16). The following clinical outcomes were compared between the two groups: operation time, radiograph times, incision length, blood loss, postoperative hospitalization, postoperative complications, bony union, fixation failure, and reoperation. Radiographs or CT scans were performed at 3, 6 and 12 months after surgery.ResultsThere were no significant differences in preoperative demographic data between the two groups. The operation time (56.62 ± 8.32 Vs 49.63 ± 7.47, P = 0.025) and radiograph times (26.54 ± 6.94 Vs 20.50 ± 5.02, P = 0.011) of the designed guide instrument group were significantly lower than those of the traditional guide instrument group. There were no significant differences in incision length (16.08 ± 3.07 Vs 15.69 ± 2.73, P = 0.720), blood loss (16.08 ± 4.96 Vs 17.88 ± 5.98, P = 0.393), postoperative hospitalization (7.15 ± 1.91 Vs 6.88 ± 2.36, P = 0.734), postoperative complications (7.7% Vs 12.5%, P = 1), and bony union (92.3% Vs 93.8%, P = 1) between the two groups. No fixation failure or reoperation occurred in either group.ConclusionsThe top of our designed guide instrument is a wedge-shaped tip with 30° inclination, which has a large contact area with the anterior surface of the cervical vertebra. According to our retrospective study, the guide instrument can reduce the operation time and radiograph times. It has potential clinical value, which needs further testing with a higher level of research design.
