Intraoperative Distal Femoral Fine Wire Traction to Facilitate Intramedullary Nailing of the Femur.

Abstract:

:Many techniques have been employed to facilitate intramedullary nailing of femur fractures. Maintaining limb length during the operation can be difficult. The authors describe the use of distal femoral fine wire skeletal traction as a technique to maintain reduction while allowing intramedullary nailing of femur fractures. This technique is safe, is effective, and negates the need for a fracture table or an assistant.

  • Improvements in the prevention of postoperative venous thromboembolism in hip fracture patients.

    abstract::Hip fracture surgery carries a high risk of venous thromboembolism and, until recently, was poorly investigated. The efficacy and safety of fondaparinux, a new synthetic antithrombotic, were investigated in two large, thromboprophylaxis studies.
