Assessment of Percutaneous Pinning Fixed by Joshi's Clamp In Distal End Radius Fractures
Journal Title: INTERNATIONAL JOURNAL OF CURRENT RESEARCH IN MEDICAL SCIENCES - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 12
Abstract
Background: Distal radius fractures are among the most common bone fractures all over the world. Close reduction and fixation by per cutaneous pinning Fixed by Joshi's Clamp is a less invasive method comparing with other open surgeries. This study aims at evaluating the functional outcome of this treatment in distal radius fractures. The outcome in distal radius fracture management is dependent on many factors and can be influenced by accurate restoration of the anatomy, minimal disruption of the surrounding tissues, and early active wrist rehabilitation. Objectives: The aim of the study is to assess the early outcomes of distal end radius fractures managed by Percutaneous Pinning Fixed by Joshi's Clamp in adult age group. Methods: In this prospective study, 20 patients with distal radius fractures underwent percutaneous pinning during a 2months period in Sayed Galal university Hospital and Ahmed Maher Teaching Hospital, Cairo, Egypt Follow-up for 6 months. The clinical outcomes will be calculated according to Cooney’s modification of the Green and O’Brien scheme. Results: showed that nine cases got Good score (45.0%), nine cases were fair score (45.0% ), two cases were poor (10.0% ) Green and O’Brien Score. Conclusion and recommendations: Joshi clamp associated with percutaneous synthesis described add good stability to fracture of the distal radius.
