          Abstract

          El propósito de nuestro trabajo fue evaluar en forma prospectiva la experiencia clínica con las primeras siete Fracturas Diafisarias de Húmero tratadas con el clavo endomedular expansible FIXION®. Todas las fracturas fueron traumáticas diafisarias de húmero, el sexo predominante fue el masculino (6:1), con una edad promedio de 34.7 años (rango entre 19 y 48 años). De ellas, dos con tercer fragmento en ala de mariposa más del 50 %, tres de trazo oblicuo corto y dos de trazo transverso. No se presentó ninguna complicación durante la cirugía y hospitalización, la inserción del clavo fue fácil, rápida y con buena fijación inmediata. En seis de los siete casos al día siguiente, en el post-operatorio inmediato, se inicio la rehabilitación en sala con ejercicios isométricos e isotónicos, al segundo día se indicaron movimientos pendulares, contraindicando los de rotación con resistencia externa ó interna. En uno de los casos el clavo en el post operatorio perdió la expansión por lo que amerito manejo con inmovilizador universal para hombro, contraindicando los movimientos y evidenciando una osificación por aposición. Se concluye que es un sistema mínimamente invasivo que amerita el uso de intensificador de imágenes, elimina el sistema de bloqueo proximal y distal, y no requiere el fresado del canal medular, reduciendo el tiempo quirúrgico y de hospitalización, con una evolución rápida y satisfactoria del paciente.

          The purpose of our study was to evaluate in prospective form the clinical experience with the first ones seven you Fracture Shaft of Hummers tried with the nail intramedullary expandable FIXION®. All the fractures were traumatic humerus Shaft, the predominant sex the masculine one (6:1), with an age 34.7 year-old average (range between 19 and 48 years). Of them, two with third fragment in butterfly wing but of 50%, three of short oblique line and two of transverse line. You don’t present any complication during the surgery and hospitalization, the insert of the nail was easy, quick and with good immediate fixation. In six of the seven cases, the following day in the post-operative one immediate you begin the rehabilitation in room with isotonic isometric exercises, to the second day pendulous movements, contraindicating those of rotation with external or internal resistance. In one of the cases, the nail in the one post operative lost the expansion for what I need handling with universal inmovilizador for shoulder contraindicating the movements and evidencing an ossification for apposition. You concludes that it is minimally a system invasivo, it requires the use of intensifier of images, it eliminates the system of blockade proximal and distal, and it doesn’t require the one rhymed of the medullary channel, reducing the surgical time and of hospitalization, with the patient’s quick and satisfactory evolution.

          Ender nailing of acute fractures of the humerus. A study of closed fixation by intramedullary nails without reaming.

          A prospective study of closed intramedullary fixation of fractures of the shaft of the humerus, using Ender nails, was performed over a six-year period. Eighty-nine fractures in eighty-eight patients were treated with no immobilization postoperatively. Three patients were lost to follow-up. Eighty-five of the remaining eighty-six fractures healed, the average time to clinical union being 7.2 weeks. Non-union of one fracture occurred and there were no infections or malunions. Six of the nine preoperative and two postoperative radial-nerve palsies were lesions in continuity and healed spontaneously. The remaining three radial nerves that had been severed by a missile needed further attention. One of the nails backed out in eight patients, requiring revision in five. The average lack of complete extension of the elbow was 4 degrees and flexion of the elbow was 132 degrees. Abduction of the shoulder averaged 91 degrees; external rotation, 54 degrees; and internal rotation, 68 degrees. We conclude that closed intramedullary Ender nailing can be performed safely and effectively in selected fractures of the humeral shaft. However, only fractures that are recalcitrant to closed reduction and immobilization or fractures in the non-compliant patient should be considered for this form of operative treatment.
