Abstract:
[Objective]To explore the methods and effects of closed reduction and percutaneous internal fixation to treat intercondylar fractures of humerus.[Method]From 2001,3 to 2004,9 we selectively treated 6 cases(group A) of Rise-Borough Ⅱ,Ⅲ type of humeral intercondylar fractures with closed reduction and percutaneous internal fixation with hollow screw and Kirschner's wire.Others(group B) treated with opened reduction and internal fixation with plates and screws.[Result]Following up 6~12 months,the outcome were evaluated with Aitken and Rorabeek rating system.Group A:5 patients were graded as excellent,1 as good.Group B:7 patients were graded as excellent,7 as good,1 as fair,1 as poor.[Conclusion]To treat Rise-Borough Ⅱ,Ⅲ type of humeral intercondylar fractures with closed reduction and percutaneous internal fixation with hollow screw and Kirschner's wire,can decrease iatrogenic impairment,receive reliable fixation and early functional exercise.The fracture union quickly,and the patient has excellent joint function and less postoperative complication.
