RESUMO

Femoral neck and pelvic fractures are rarely encountered in the pediatric population secondary to the resilient nature of the immature skeleton. Both fracture types usually result from high-energy blunt trauma including motor vehicle collisions, motor vehicle-pedestrian accidents, and falls from height. Considerable studies have been published on the natural history, management, and complications of pediatric pelvis and femoral neck fractures. However, few case reports have documented both fracture types in the same patient. Management of concomitant injuries presents unique challenges both for operative stabilization and for clinical postoperative care. After appropriate consent was obtained, a thorough review was performed of the patient's hospital records and imaging history. The senior author of the report also provided insight into the management of the patient's initial injuries and subsequent complications. Our case involves a 4-year-old female who was overrun by an all-terrain vehicle. Her orthopedic injuries included a nondisplaced Delbet type 3 fracture of the right femoral neck, a completely displaced Delbet type 3 fracture of the left femoral neck, bilateral sacroiliac fracture-dislocations, severe comminution of her left pubic rami, and a free-floating right pubic rami segment spanning from the triradiate cartilage to the pubic symphysis with severe rotational deformity. Her postoperative recovery was complicated by refracture of her left femoral neck (Delbet type 1), left hip osteomyelitis, and left femoral head avascular necrosis. The salient features of her operative management, subsequent complications, and functional recovery are described in this report. Cases of bilateral femoral neck fractures and multiple pelvic fractures in pediatric patients are sparsely documented in the literature because of their infrequent occurrence. Pediatric pelvic fractures typically do well with conservative treatment secondary to the incredible remodeling ability of the immature pelvis. Femoral neck fractures, in contrast, are highly associated with complications including coxa vara, nonunion, infection, physeal closure, and avascular necrosis. This case report documents two rare fracture types in the same patient and describes the challenges encountered throughout the duration of her recovery. LEVEL OF EVIDENCE: Level V, Case report.

RESUMO

BACKGROUND: Sternoclavicular joint (SCJ) instability is a rare condition resulting in impaired function and shoulder girdle pain. Various methods for stabilizing the SCJ have been proposed, with biomechanical analysis demonstrating superior stiffness and peak load properties with a figure-of-8 tendon graft technique. The purpose of this study was to evaluate the clinical outcomes of SCJ reconstruction with an interference screw figure-of-8 allograft tendon technique. METHODS: A retrospective analysis of a consecutive cohort of patients from 2007 to 2011 was performed for all patients undergoing SCJ reconstruction for instability. All patients were treated for SCJ instability with a figure-of-8 allograft reconstruction augmented by 2 tenodesis screws. Outcomes were performed with the American Shoulder and Elbow Surgeons (ASES) score, the shortened Disabilities of the Arm, Shoulder, and Hand (QuickDASH) score, and the visual analog scale (VAS) for pain score for all patients. Intraoperative and postoperative complications were recorded. RESULTS: A total of 10 patients were included in the study, with an average follow-up of 38 months (range, 11.6-66.8 months). Preoperatively, the mean ASES score was 35.3 points (range, 21.7-55 points), whereas the postoperative mean ASES score increased to 84.7 points (range, 66.6-95 points). The mean VAS score improved from 7.0 (range, 5-10) before surgery to 1.15 (range, 0-3) at follow-up, and the QuickDASH score average was 17.0 points (range, 0 to 38.6 points). Minor postoperative complications were noted in 2 patients. CONCLUSION: Patients who underwent repair of SCJ instability by an augmented figure-of-8 allograft tendon reconstruction report marked improvements in both shoulder function and pain relief.

RESUMO

Treatment of adolescent hallux valgus with first metatarsal double osteotomy is well described in the literature. Unfortunately, first metatarsal phalangeal joint stiffness and deformity recurrence have been reported at relatively high rates. The authors revisit a technique aimed at preventing these complications.
