ABSTRACT

Introduction : Les méthodes thérapeutiques des fractures du radius distal sont variées. Les buts de cette étude étaient de décrire la technique de l'embrochage selon Kapandji sans amplificateur de brillance et d'évaluer les résultats obtenus. Patients et Méthodes : Les patients ont été opérés entre mars 2009 et décembre 2012 pour une fracture du radius distal extra- articulaire à bascule postérieure. L'âge moyen était de 38 (18-75) ans. Il s'agissait de fractures fermées ou ouvertes de type I de Gustilo-Anderson. L'embrochage de Kapandji a été réalisé en ambulatoire sans garrot au bras. L'anesthésie était locale (n=52 ; 76%) et générale (n=16 ; 24%). La fracture était réduite par la technique de Judet et ou de « démonte pneu ». La qualité de la réduction était appréciée par la correction de la bascule postérieure et la restitution de la ligne bi- styloïdienne. Soixante-huit patients ont été retenus au contrôle final. Les évaluations fonctionnelle et radiologique ont été faites selon les critères de Castaing. Le recul moyen était de 15,6 mois. Résultats : Les fractures ont consolidé en 44 jours (42-49). Le résultat radiologique en post opératoire était très bons (n=22; 32%), bons (n=28 ;41%), moyens (n=14 ;21%) et mauvais (n=4 ;6%). Au dernier recul, les résultats fonctionnels étaient très bons (n=40 ;59%), bons (n=22 ;32%), moyens (n=6 ;9%), et mauvais (n=0). Les résultats radiologiques étaient très bons (n=20 ;29%), bons (n=30 ;44%), moyens (n=12 ;18%) et mauvais (n=6 ;9%). Les complications étaient une infection superficielle (n=14), le déplacement secondaire (n=22), la migration des broches (n=18), une lésion de la branche sensitive du nerf radial (n=6). Les facteurs de bon pronostic étaient l'âge< 60ans, la lésion métaphysaire M1M2, l'articulation radio-ulnaire intacte, la physiothérapie, et l'absence de syndrome complexe douloureux régional. Conclusion : L'embrochage de Kapandji des fractures extra-articulaires à déplacement postérieure sans l'utilisationde l'amplificateur de brillance donne de bons résultats. Cette méthode peut être appliquée dans les centres dont le plateau technique est limité

ABSTRACT

INTRODUCTION: The use of Masquelet technique is a serious option to consider for biologic reconstruction of severe bone loss. Here is exposed a continuous and prospective study on bone loss management using that technique. The aims of this study were to assess epidemiology of bone loss due either to trauma or to non-unions and to give preliminary results. PATIENTS AND METHODS: It was a prospective study from April 2015 to december 2016 involving patients treated using the induced membrane technique for a diaphyseal bone defect due either to trauma or non-unions. AO plates or Orthofix external fixators were used for osteosynthesis. Bone healing was radiologically assessed and any complications were listed. RESULTS: During the study period, 11 patients were treated using the induced membrane technique. There were 8 males and 3 females. Their mean age was 40.45 years (21-59). The skeletal segments concerned were 2 humerus, 6 femurs and 3 tibias with a mean bone defect length of 4,45 cm (2.5-8). The delay between reconstruction and trauma was 8 months (20 days - 3 years). After a mean follow-up of 6.54 months (3-11) six patients presented a good radiological healing (4 femurs, 2 humerus) whereas in four patients, autograft osteointegration was still ongoing (2 femurs, 2 tibias). A tibia secondary infection was observed in a patient with the graft partial resorption. In another patient, an initial gangrene lead to a leg amputation. CONCLUSION: The induced membrane technique is an excellent option for bone defect reconstruction compared to other usual bone graft techniques. It helped us to manage large bone loss in various skeletal segments.

ABSTRACT

PURPOSE: The aim of this study was to analyse war-related and non-war-related extremity injuries in soldiers in the Mali conflict. MATERIALS AND METHODS: This prospective study was performed from 1 May 1 to 31 December 2014. It concerned extremity injuries in soldiers treated at Togo Level 2 Hospital. RESULTS: Seventy-nine patients with an average age of 31.19 years were assessed. Among them, 50 were admitted after war injury and 29 from nonwar injury. Most war-related injuries were due to improvised explosive devices (IEDs) (36 %); road traffic accidents (51.72 %) were the main mechanism of non-war injury. A total of 125 injuries were analysed. Limb fractures were identified in 37 patients (29.6 %), and 22 cases (59.46 %) were open fractures. Twenty-six (20.8 %) patients had soft tissue wounds. The other injuries were sprains (18.4 %), muscle contusions (15.2 %), dislocations (8.8 %), traumatic amputations (4 %) and burns (3.2 %). Surgical debridement and external fixator application were the most frequently performed surgical procedures. Thirty-nine per cent of patients were evacuated to a level 3 hospital for better care. CONCLUSION: The severity of injuries and their rapid treatment require orthopaedic surgeons to have high levels of surgical experience and knowledge pertaining to military or disaster surgical doctrine.
