ABSTRACT

La luxación de codo asociada a fractura ipsilateral del radio distal y lesión de la arteria braquial constituye una patología traumática infrecuente. Las 2 referencias de esta asociación de lesiones aparecieron en 2015, aunque en ambas, los autores no advirtieron que constituían los 2 primeros casos publicados en la literatura médica; incluso en el título de sus artículos, no se hizo mención de la fractura del extremo distal del radio, pero sí en sus textos. El objeto de este trabajo es dar a conocer 3 casos con esta nueva entidad patológica traumática, explicar su posible mecanismo patogénico, el tratamiento utilizado y los resultados obtenidos (AU)


Elbow dislocation associated with ipsilateral fracture of the distal radius and a brachial artery injury is an uncommon traumatic entity. The two references of this injury combination appeared in 2015, although both authors did not realise that they were the first two cases published in the medical literature. Although mentioned in the text of the articles, no mention was made of the fracture of the distal radius in the titles. The purpose of this paper is to present three cases with this new traumatic pathological entity, explaining its pathogenetic mechanism, the treatment used, and the results obtained (AU)

ABSTRACT

Se presenta un caso de una fractura de la diáfisis humeral complicada con una pseudoartrosis recalcitrante, infección y parálisis radial. Se propone una alternativa de tratamiento que, por su sencillez y aplicabilidad, puede incluirse en el arsenal terapéutico para solucionar esta grave patología (AU)


We present a case of humeral shaft fracture complicated with recalcitrant nonunion, infection and radial nerve paralisys. A treatment alternative sets out that, by its simplicity and applicability, deserves to have it in account within the therapeutic arsenal which we arrange to the solution of this serious pathology (AU)

ABSTRACT

Objetivos. Comparar la rigidez y la distribución de tensiones en los implantes de dos modelos experimentales: un húmero con pseudoartrosis diafisaria estabilizado con placa y un húmero con pseudoartrosis diafisaria estabilizado con clavo encerrojado. Material y método. Con un húmero de cadáver y los dos dispositivos de fijación se crearon las geometrías con el programa de diseño CATIA v4.2® (IBM, Armonk, USA). Posteriormente estas geometrías se modelaron con el preprocesador informático MSC-PATRAN® (IBM, Armonk, USA). Finalmente se establecieron las propiedades mecánicas de los materiales, las condiciones de contorno y las cargas a las que fueron sometidos los modelos. Resultados. El modelo con clavo fue más rígido que el modelo con placa a compresión, tracción y torsión, sin embargo, el modelo con placa fue más rígido que el modelo con clavo en flexión anteroposterior, lateromedial y cizallamiento lateromedial. La distribución de tensiones ha sido más heterogénea en el clavo que en la placa, siendo esta última el implante que soporta los mayores valores tensionales en todos los estados de carga estudiados. Conclusiones. La rigidez del modelo experimental depende no solo del implante sino del estado de carga aplicado, siendo superior el clavo en unas condiciones de carga y la placa en otras. El clavo sin embargo, absorbe menos tensión que la placa en todos los estados de carga estudiados


Purpose. To compare the firmess and stress distribution patterns in the implants of two experimental models: a humerus with shaft pseudoarthrosis stabilized with a plate, and a humerus with shaft nonunions stabilized with a locking nail. Materials and methods. The two fixation devices are attached to cadaver humerus bones; geometries are created with the CATIA 4.2 design software (IBM, Armonk, USA). Subsequently, these geometries were modelled with the MSC PATRAN® computer processor (IBM, Armonk, USA). Finally, the mechanical properties of the materials were established as well as the contour properties and the loads the models were subjected to. Results. The nailed model was firmer that the plated model as regards compression, traction and torsion. Nonetheless, as far as A/P and lateral-medial flexion and lateral-medial shear stresses were concerned, the plated model was firmer than the nailed model. Stress distribution was more heterogeneous in the nail than in the plate, the latter being the implant type supporting the highest stress levels in all the loading phases studied. Conclusions. For some stress levels, the nail proved to be more stable than the plate, although for other stress levels the opposite was the case. In any case, the nail provides a better stress distribution than the plate (AU)

ABSTRACT

Objetivos. Comparar la placa a compresión con el clavo encerrojado, valorar el empleo del injerto óseo, valorar la utilidad de la cruentación y compresión del foco y determinar la existencia de factores pronóstico en el tratamiento quirúrgico de la pseudoartrosis aséptica de la diáfisis humeral. Material y método. Se ha realizado un estudio clínico multicéntrico incluyendo retrospectivamente 54 pseudoartrosis asépticas de la diáfisis humeral intervenidas entre 1994 y 2003. Se analizaron tres grupos de factores (de filiación, asociados al traumatismo inicial y asociados a la técnica quirúrgica) y se estudió su relación estadística con la consolidación, el tiempo de consolidación y las complicaciones posoperatorias. Resultados. La consolidación de la serie fue del 72,5% con un tiempo medio de consolidación de 21 semanas y un porcentaje de complicaciones del 20,4%. Han aumentado significativamente (p < 0,05) la consolidación: el tratamiento con clavo en las pseudoartrosis atróficas y con placa en las hipertróficas. Han acortado el tiempo de consolidación (p < 0,05) las fracturas inicialmente simples (tipo A) y las tratadas en principio de manera conservadora. Han disminuido las complicaciones posoperatorias (p < 0,05) aquellas fracturas inicialmente simples (tipo A). Conclusiones. No existen diferencias entre los dos implantes estudiados en cuanto a consolidación, tiempo de consolidación y complicaciones, sin embargo, las pseudoartrosis atróficas obtienen mejores resultados con clavo y las hipertróficas con placa. El aporte de injerto no ha demostrado mejorar los resultados. El enclavado debe de realizarse a foco abierto para cruentar y comprimir el foco. No se han encontrado factores pronóstico


Purpose. To compare the use of compression plates with locking nails, to assess the value of bone grafting, to assess the value of curettage and fracture site compression and to determine prognostic factors in the surgical treatment of non-septic humeral diaphyseal non-union. Materials and methods. A retrospective multicenter clinical study was performed of 54 non-septic humeral diaphyseal non-unions surgically treated from 1994 to 2003. Three groups of factors were analyzed (patient characteristics, initial trauma and surgical technique) and their statistic relationship with achievement of union, time to union and postoperative complications. Results. The series had a consolidation rate of 72.5% with a mean time to consolidation of 21 weeks and a complication rate of 20.4%. Factors that significantly increased union (p < 0.05) were: nailing in atrophied non-unions and plates in hypertrophied non-unions. Time to union was shorter (p < 0.05) in initially simple fractures (type A) and those initially treated conservatively. Postoperative complications decreased (p < 0.05) in initially simple fractures (type A). Conclusions. No differences were found between the two implants studied as to union, time to union and complications. However, better results were seen with nailing in atrophied non-unions and plates in hypertrophied non-unions. The use of grafts was not seen to improve results. Open nailing must be carried out so as to perform curettage and compression of the fracture focus. No prognostic factors were identified

ABSTRACT

We present a case of acute carpal tunnel syndrome due to compression of the median nerve within the carpal tunnel caused by tumoral calcinosis. Wrist immobilization and oral corticosteroids produced excellent clinical resolution. Radiologically, the calcific mass disappeared.
