Abstract:
Objective Along with the development of science and technology , increase in the number of species gradually distal femoral fractures internal fixation materials , the choice of performer operation method is put forward to the test .To provide theo-retical basis for surgery of adult distal femoral fractures by systematically compare the distal femoral fractures in adults treated by intr -amedullary nail and plate . Methods We searched for articles comparing intramedullary nail and plate for distal femoral fractures in adults in Cochrane library, HighWire, CNKI, PubMed, super star MedaLink, Wanfang database.Manual retrieval related magazines, the retrieve date from June 2003 to June 2013.The RevMan5.1 provided for the extraction of available data after evaluate the quality of eligible literature . Results A total of 1200 patients were included ( 545 in the intramedullary nailing group and 655 in the plate group).Compared with the plate, intramedullary nail significantly reduced the risk of total complications (RR=0.48,95%CI[0.35, 0.67],P<0.01).Shorten the hospital stay (WMD =-3.55,95%CI[ -4.89, -2.24], P <0.01),full weight-bearing time (WMD=-0.80,95%CI[-1.49,-0.10],P=0.02), healing time(WMD=-3.32,95%CI[ -3.72,-2.92],P<0.01), all the above differences are statistically significant .In addition, this study found that intramedullary nail group is better in operation time and blood loss than steel group , but the conclusion by contrast in some literature . Conclusion Intramedullary nailing treatment of distal femoral fractures in adults can decrease the occurrence of postoperative complications .And in the operation time , hospitalization time, healing time, load time and blood loss, etc is superior to the steel group .Influenced by quality into literature , the above conclu-sion needs high quality case-control study further confirmed .
