Abstract:
BACKGROUND:Bennett fracture repair is one of the problems for orthopedic surgeons, although there are a variety of clinical treatment for Bennett fracture, no treatment strategy is widely accepted. ＜br> OBJECTIVE:This study aims to provide evidence for developing an effective treatment strategy for Bennett fracture. ＜br> METHODS:A computer-based retrieval of PubMeb database (http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/PubMed), CNKI China Journal Ful-Text database (http://www.cnki.net/) and Wanfang database (http://g.wanfangdata.com.cn/) between January 2004 and July 2014 was performed by the first author. Meantime, Campbel ’s Operative Orthopaedics, Shiyong Guke Xue and other orthopedic monographs were manual y retrieved, to analyze research progress about Bennett fracture. ＜br> RESULTS AND CONCLUSION:A total of 37 literatures associated with Bennett fracture were involved in this study. Conventional closed reduction plaster or Kirschner wire fixation is characterized by low cost and easy operation, but it fails to achieve anatomical reduction. AO principle for fracture treatment has been widely accepted in recent years, the application of AO screw and AO plate is increasing in treatment of Bennett fracture, it can not only repair bone fracture but also repair and reconstruct the damaged ligament, but the cost is very high and secondary surgery is needed to remove the implant. Traditional Chinese orthopedics and integrated traditional and western medicine are experienced methods for treatments of Bennett fracture, and Chinese herbs have obvious symptomatic treatment effect and effectively improve the symptoms of patients. As the thumbs play a crucial role in the hand movement, the optimal treatment strategy for Bennett fractures has important clinical significance.
