Radiographic and functional results of Ilizarov fixation in the management of nonunion of tibia and femur fractures: a retrospective case series.

Background: Femoral and tibial fractures may result in delayed union and nonunion, posing significant challenges in orthopedic practice. The Ilizarov technique has emerged as a promising solution for managing these complex cases.

Objectives: Evaluate the radiographic and functional results of Ilizarov fixation in the treatment of nonunion of tibia and femur fractures.

Modified one third tubular plate (spring plate) augmented with reconstruction plates for treatment of comminuted posterior wall acetabular fractures, Short to midterm outcomes of 24 patients.

Unlabelled: The most common form of acetabular fracture is believed to be the posterior wall; its incidence ranges from 25% to 47%. Managing such fractures has been difficult in the past and until recently. To obtain a favorable functional outcome, an accurate diagnosis and a well-executed treatment strategy are essential.

Ilizarov-Assisted Healing for a Neglected Non-united Fracture Calcaneus: A Case Report and Literature Review.

Although calcaneal fracture is not a rare injury and nonunion is rare, proper management of a calcaneal fracture is mandatory because it can be a prerequisite for long-term functional disabilities of the foot, including posttraumatic osteoarthritis of the hindfoot joint, chronic pain, and persistent swelling syndromes. Restoration of axial alignment and joint congruence with careful caution toward soft tissues is the basic principle of treatment; however, few literature reviews to date have addressed the characteristics of a calcaneal nonunion fracture. We discuss a case of a 30-year-old male, manual worker, and diabetic type 1 with a calcaneal fracture reaching the articular surface of the subtalar joint who underwent a simple fracture to a painful nonunion fracture after conservative treatment for seven months before presenting to our hospital being unable to walk with heel deformity.
