ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION: Proximal humeral fractures account for 4 to 5 percentage of all fractures.minimally displaced can be managed non-operatively in adults. Displaced and unstable fractures should be treated surgically to achieve painless shoulder and good range of movement. AIM AND OBJECTIVES: Our study Is to evaluate the clinical, functional and radiological result of operative proximal humerus fractures managed PHILOS Plating. MATERIAL AND METHODS: 26 patients with displaced proximal humeral fractures that were treated by PHILOS plating between June 2018 to December 2019 were included in this study. The Constant-Murley score (CMS) was used to evaluate the outcome. RESULT: Out of 26 patients 9 were male and 17 were female. The mean age was 52 years. The mean surgical time was 88 min. The mean fracture union time was 11.5 weeks. Outcome was excellent in 17 cases, Good in 6 and Fair in 3 cases. CONCLUSION: Fixation with PHILOS is associated with good to excellent outcomes. It gives high rate of union, good range of movement and has minimal complications.
ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION;To reduce the incidence of instability anddislocation rate following primary Total Hip Replacement (THR)surgery, Dual Mobility Total Hip Replacement (DMTHR)component has been developed.AIMS AND OBJECTIVES ;This study is aimed to assess thefunctional result and complications following DMTHR.MATERIALS AND METHODS 26 patients who have undergoneDMTHR between June 2018 to February 2020 were included inthis retrospective study. Modified Harris Hip Score was used toevaluate surgical and functional outcome.RESULT ;Out of 26 patients in this study, 17 were males and 9were females. The mean age was 52 years (Range 21 to 81years). As per Modified Harris Hip Score functional outcome wasExcellent in 20 (77%), Good in 4 (15%), Fair in 1 (4%) and poorin 1 (4%), patients.CONCLUSION Dual mobility total hip replacement providesgood hip range of movement and stability and is also associatedwith lower dislocation rate.
