Coracoclavicular Stabilization With Two Loops of Equal Tension Using a Double O Loops Technique in the Distal Clavicle Fracture.

ABSTRACT: The distal clavicle fracture is one of the most common injuries around the shoulder joint. There is no consensus regarding a gold standard treatment. Each technique has advantages and disadvantages. Currently, coracoclavicular (CC) stabilization is one of the most popular techniques because this operative procedure provides good stability of the fracture and has few complications. The CC stabilization is a suspensory fixation that consists of many two-CC-loop arrangements. It is, however, difficult to gain equal tension in both CC loops because one loop is always tighter and has greater action in maintaining bone alignment than the other loop. To solve this problem, we propose a double O loops technique to achieve two equal tension loops.

Distal Clavicle Fracture Repair Using Cortical Button Fixation With Coracoclavicular Ligament Reconstruction.

Project description:Management of distal clavicle fractures remains controversial. Various treatment options have been described including open reduction and internal fixation with hook plate fixation, tension band wiring, screw fixation, and distal locking plates. Many of these techniques are associated with a high perioperative complication rate. We describe a surgical technique that allows indirect fixation of distal clavicle fractures and reconstruction of the CC ligaments without the use of prominent hardware.

Open reduction internal fixation of distal clavicle fracture with supplementary button coracoclavicular fixation.

Project description:Distal clavicle fractures are common, and no standard treatment exists. Many different surgical modalities exist. This report describes an open reduction internal fixation technique that achieves both plate and coracoclavicular stabilization using a button device. A precontoured superior-lateral plate is secured to the clavicle. A 3.2-mm spade-tipped drill bit is drilled across the clavicle and coracoid, passing through 4 cortices. The button is loaded onto an insertion device, passed across the 4 cortices, and captured on the undersurface of the coracoid under fluoroscopic guidance. This construct is linked to the distal clavicle plate by heavy sutures using a second button that sits in the plate. The lateral locking holes are then filled to finalize fixation. This technique provides for a simplified way to achieve coracoclavicular stabilization when using a plate for fixation of distal clavicle fractures.

Closed-Loop Double Endobutton Technique for Repair of Unstable Distal Clavicle Fractures.

Project description:BackgroundDisplaced fractures of the distal clavicle are inherently unstable and lead to nonunion in a high percentage of cases. The optimal surgical management remains controversial.HypothesisIndirect osteosynthesis with a closed-loop double endobutton construct would result in reliable fracture union and obviate the need for additional surgery.Study designCase series; Level of evidence, 4.MethodsEight patients with an acute unstable Neer type IIB distal clavicle fracture were treated with a closed-loop double endobutton implant. Mean follow-up averaged 3.4 years (range, 1-9 years). Two patients were lost to follow-up. The remaining 6 patients underwent a detailed functional and radiologic evaluation.ResultsDefinitive fracture healing was achieved in all patients. There were no complications, and no patients required additional surgery related to the index procedure. The mean Constant score was 97 at final follow-up.ConclusionThe closed-loop double endobutton technique was reliable and effective in achieving fracture union in all patients with unstable Neer type IIB fractures of the distal clavicle. This technique obviates the need for late hardware removal that is often necessary when direct osteosynthesis is used and avoids potential complications associated with coracoclavicular cerclage constructs that require knot fixation.

Distal Biceps Tendon Repair Using a Double Tension Slide Technique.

Project description:Distal biceps tendon ruptures are thought to be secondary to an acute forceful eccentric load on a degenerative tendon. Nonoperative treatment following rupture leads to significantly decreased forearm supination and elbow flexion strength. There are several techniques described in the literature for repair. This article describes, with video illustration, distal biceps tendon repair using a double tension slide technique with 2 No. 2 high-tension nonabsorbable composite sutures.

Arthroscopic-Assisted Bone Graft Harvest From the Proximal Humerus for Distal Third Clavicle Fracture Nonunion.

Project description:Clavicle fracture nonunion can lead to persistent pain and loss of shoulder function. Distal clavicle fractures have the greatest risk of nonunion and are often treated surgically. Bone grafting plays a vital role in the treatment of distal clavicle nonunion. Although multiple options for bone graft exist, the iliac crest has long been considered the gold standard for harvest. Despite its extensive use, multiple complications have been associated with iliac crest bone graft harvest. We advocate a surgical technique for arthroscopic bone graft harvest from the proximal humerus with open reduction and internal fixation of an ipsilateral distal clavicle nonunion.

Arthroscopic treatment of comminuted distal clavicle fractures (latarjet fractures) using 2 double-button devices.

Project description:Complex distal clavicle fractures associated with a rupture of the coracoclavicular ligaments (Latarjet fractures) can result in delayed union or nonunion. There is no standard treatment for a clavicle fracture. This report introduces an arthroscopic technique for treating distal clavicle fractures associated with ruptured coracoclavicular ligament using 2 double-button devices. By use of posterior and anterior standard arthroscopic portals, the base of the coracoid process is exposed through the rotator interval. A 4-mm hole is drilled through the clavicle and the coracoid process with a specific ancillary drill guide. The first button is pushed through both holes down the coracoid process. The device is tightened, and the second button is fixed on top of the clavicle, allowing reduction and fixation of the proximal part of the fracture. Then, the undersurface of the lateral clavicle is dissected through standard posterior and lateral subacromial approaches. The inferior clavicle fragment is reduced and fixed to the clavicle body by a double button fixed down and at the top of the clavicle. With this technique, the arthroscopic treatment of distal clavicle fracture has been extended to comminuted fractures.

Arthroscopic-Assisted Management of Unstable Distal-Third Clavicle Fractures: Conoid Ligament Reconstruction and Fracture Cerclage With Sutures.

Project description:Surgical treatment is usually indicated for the management of Neer type IIB fractures of the distal third of the clavicle. These unstable injuries have shown a rate of nonunion that oscillates around 30% to 45% when managed conservatively, and surgical strategies often require a second operation for implant removal. We describe an arthroscopic-assisted technique for the treatment of Neer type IIB unstable distal-third clavicle fractures that overcomes the issues related to open surgery, metal hardware, and implant irritation. This technique increases the load to failure of the construct by means of adding a synthetic conoid ligament reconstruction with a nonrigid suspension device, and it allows the diagnosis and treatment of associated glenohumeral injuries. Our technique incorporates a fracture interfragmentary fixation with sutures, thus avoiding a second operation for implant removal.

A Technique for a More Accurate Acromioclavicular Joint Reduction in Arthroscopic Coracoclavicular Stabilization of Acromioclavicular Joint Dislocation.

Project description:Loss of reduction is the most common complication following acromioclavicular dislocations treatment, with literature showing greater postoperative coracoclavicular distances associated with worse clinical results. We present a surgical gesture that aims to help surgeons achieve and secure an anatomic acromioclavicular reduction during coracoclavicular fixation. This technique has the possibility to improve radiological and functional results of acromioclavicular dislocation treatment.

Medial clavicle pseudarthrosis successfully treated with an inverted distal clavicle locking plate.

Project description:IntroductionMedial clavicle fractures are rare injuries. Symptomatic nonunion arises up to 8% of medial clavicle fractures when treated conservatively.Presentation of caseA 53-year-old man sustained a left medial clavicle fracture and was treated conservatively at another hospital. Nine months after his initial injury, he was referred to our institution. We diagnosed pseudarthrosis of the medial clavicle. We performed open reduction and internal fixation using an inverted distal clavicle locking plate. At the 1-year follow-up, radiographs showed bone union.DiscussionThis is the first reported case of medial clavicle pseudarthrosis treated with an inverted distal clavicle anatomical locking plate. There are several advantages in using this plate.ConclusionThis method is a good treatment option.

Development of a surface tension mediated technique for dry stabilization of mammalian cells.

Project description:Dry state preservation at ambient temperatures (lyopreservation) is a biomimetic alternative to low temperature stabilization (cryopreservation) of biological materials. Lyopreservation is hypothesized to rely upon the creation of a glassy environment, which is commonly observed in desiccation-tolerant organisms. Non-uniformities in dried samples have been indicated as one of the reasons for instability in storage outcome. The current study presents a simple, fast, and uniform surface tension based technique that can be implemented for lyopreservation of mammalian cells. The technique involves withdrawing cells attached to rigid substrates to be submerged in a solution of lyoprotectant and then withdrawing the samples at a specific rate to an inert environment. This creates a uniform thin film of desiccated lyoprotectant due to sudden change of surface tension. The residual moisture contents at different locations in the desiccated film was quantified using a spatially resolved Raman microspectroscopy technique. Post-desiccation cellular viability and growth are quantified using fluorescent microscopy and dye exclusion assays. Cellular injury following desiccation is evaluated by bioenergetic quantification of metabolic functions using extracellular flux analysis and by a Raman microspectroscopic analysis of change in membrane structure. The technique developed here addresses an important bottleneck of lyoprocessing which requires the fast and uniform desiccation of cellular samples.
