2016年7月22日 · Cephalomedullary nailing is the surgical stabilization of the fracture with an intramedullary device usually inserted through the piriformis fossa, the tip or lateral greater trochanter, or the medial greater trochanter.

Current standard of care for these fractures includes fixation with either a cephalomedullary nail (CMN) or a sliding hip screw (SHS). The purpose of this study was to compare failure and medical complications of intertrochanteric femoral fractures repaired by CMN or SHS.

2021年1月11日 · The use of cephalo-medullary nails (CMN) is a widely accepted management option for the treatment of unstable per-trochanteric hip fractures. A growing body of literature has reported good functional and radiological outcomes in patients managed with a dynamic hip screw supplemented with a trochanteric stabilisation plate (DHS w/ TSP).

Cephalomedullary nailing (CMN) system for the treatment of intertrochanteric fractures as well as a wide range of proximal femur fractures and associated femoral shaft fractures. Gamma4 is a comprehensive femoral intramedullary nailing (IMN) system

Although many studies have reported the use of dynamic hip screws (DHS) and cephalomedullary nailing (CMN) for basicervical femoral neck fracture (BFNF), no clear treatment protocols have been recommended. The present study aimed to compare the surgical outcomes associated with DHS and CMN to determine the appropriate fixation method for BFNF.

Hip fracture is a major cause of morbidity and mortality in older adults. Intertrochanteric hip fractures often are treated surgically using cephalomedullary nails (CMN), in either a short or long length. Their outcomes are documented in the ...

2013年9月1日 · The purpose of this study is to evaluate the clinical results of conversion total hip arthroplasty after failed internal fixation (SHS or CMN) of intertrochanteric hip fractures. In addition, we were interested in the types and rates of complications associated with CTHA and if the method of prior fixation had any impact upon these results.

Aims: Cephalomedullary nails (CMNs) are commonly used for the treatment of intertrochanteric hip fractures. Total hip arthroplasty (THA) may be used as a salvage procedure when fixation fails in these patients. The aim of this study was to analyze the complications of THA following failed intertrochanteric hip fracture fixation using a CMN.

In summary, this meta-analysis reports on clinically relevant outcomes SHS vs. CMN in the treatment of intertrochanteric hip fractures. Using the most recently published data, we found that the only notable difference is patients treated with CMN have a …

Background: Both long and short cephalomedullary nails (CMN) may be used to treat trochanteric femur fractures. The objective of this paper was to compare the clinical outcomes between long and short CMN in the treatment of trochanteric hip fractures.
