Abstract:
[Objective] To design anatomical steel plate for internal fixation of scapular neck fracmre.[Method]By observing the scapular structure and scapular fracture type,imaging a form of anatomical steel plate for internal fixation of scapular neck fracture,the needed relative measurement datum of scapula were obtained.Forty pairs of scapular spechnens of men and women were measured,relative datum were obtained.Based on the measurement,scapular neck fracture plate was designed.The steel plates were applied in patients with scapular neck fracture or scapular body fracture,patients were followed up after operations,the results were observed.[Result]Seven patients with scapular neck fracture or scapular body fracture were operated with the anatomical steel plates,the steel plates were obedient to the scapulas greatly,the fixations were strong,the operations were easy,the time of operations were short,seven patients were followed up for 12-18 months showing satisfactory results.[Conclusion]The design of anatomical scapular neck fracture steel plates is satisfactory,when using tile plate to fix scapular neck fracture.The fixation is strong,using the steel plate can be benificial to patient's early exercise.It has advantages of preventing complications,promoting fracture to heal,making the scapular operation easy,shortening the time of operation,lessening the blood in operation.This type of anatomical steel plate has the value to be popularized.
