RESUMO

CASE: We report a single case of a closed intra-articular distal humerus fracture in a 28-year-old man with a preexisting fishtail deformity characterized by concavity of the central trochlea and corresponding deformity of the olecranon. The patient was treated with open reduction and internal fixation. CONCLUSION: The case highlights the diagnosis and challenges of treatment. Conventional fixation choices and imaging techniques may need to be altered when treating a fracture with this deformity.

RESUMO

Background: Hip fractures in the geriatric population are frequently encountered. There is increasing focus on minimizing the delay to surgery in these patients. This study was designed to evaluate factors responsible for a delay to surgery in a geriatric hip fracture population and how time to surgery affects mortality. Methods: A retrospective cohort of patients sustaining low energy geriatric hip fractures in either an American College of Surgeons (ACS) verified Level 1 trauma center or a local university affiliated community teaching hospital were reviewed. The following variables were evaluated as independent risk factors for delay to surgery: demographic data, surgical details, use of cardiology resources, treatment center, and comorbidities. As a secondary objective, the effect of time to surgery on 1 year mortality was analyzed. Results: 1157 patients met inclusion criteria. The following factors increased the risk of delay to surgery greater than 48 hours: male sex, treatment in a community hospital (versus trauma center), older age, multiple comorbidities (eg, cardiovascular-related conditions or other fractures), cardiology consultation, and an American Society of Anesthesiologists physical status score of 3 or 4. Cardiology consultation was the strongest independent predictor of risk for delay to surgery of >48 hours (odds ratio, 6.68; 95% confidence interval, 4.40 to 10.14; P < .001). The 1-year mortality of patients did not differ when surgical treatment occurred before 48 hours or after 48 hours (Log-rank test P = .109). Conclusion: The presence of cardiovascular comorbidities and cardiology consultations can delay surgical treatments for hip fractures in patients greater than 65 years old, but the delay did not influence 1-year all-cause mortality. Level of Evidence: Level IV.

RESUMO

CASE: We report a case of a rare "floating fibula" ankle injury characterized by dislocation of the proximal tibiofibular joint (PTFJ), syndesmosis disruption, complete deltoid disruption, and tibiotalar dislocation without fibula fracture in a 44-year-old man. Imaging includes preoperative and postoperative radiographs and CT scans. Treatment involved reduction and screw fixation of the syndesmosis and PTFJ with planned screw removal. A successful clinical and radiographic outcome was achieved at the 15-month follow-up. CONCLUSION: This case highlights the unique features of the "floating fibula" injury and shows that reduction and intraoperative assessment may be more challenging than a typical Maisonneuve injury.

RESUMO

Background: To evaluate the clinical, functional, radiographic, and survival outcomes in patients undergoing reverse total shoulder arthroplasty (RSA) with uncemented stem fixation for proximal humerus fractures. Materials and Methods: This is a retrospective cohort study that evaluated a consecutive series of patients with proximal humerus fractures undergoing RSA. Clinical data, radiographs, and re-operation rates were reviewed in patients selected for uncemented stem fixation. The same parameters were compared to the remainder of the cohort undergoing cemented stem fixation. Results: The uncemented group (n = 16, median total follow-up = 108 weeks) and cemented group (n = 12, median total follow-up = 223 weeks, p = 0.110) did not differ statistically in pre-operative demographic, post-operative outcomes or incidence of complications. Two patients (12.5%) in the uncemented group required a reoperation (Week 52 and 180) versus none in the cemented group. Conclusion: Uncemented stem fixation in RSA for proximal humerus fractures does not yield worse results than cemented stem fixation in properly selected patients. Prospective non-inferiority trials comparing outcomes are recommended.

RESUMO

CASE: A 66-year-old Caucasian man with Klippel-Trenaunay-Weber syndrome (KTWS) presented with chronic changes related to the KTWS, along with worsening pain and motion associated with residual damage from an episode of spontaneous septic arthritis that occurred 1 year prior. He underwent total joint arthroplasty with a rotating hinged knee implant. CONCLUSION: Arthroplasty is a treatment option for patients with KTWS; however, there are risks that must be considered. This case report outlines the management of a patient with KTWS and a history of septic arthritis.
