Öğe Comparison of Two Different Approaches to Treat a Hallux Valgus Deformity: Intramedullary Self-Locked Plates and Herbert Screws(Mdpi, 2019) Karaduman, Zekeriya Okan; Turhal, Ozan; Turhan, Yalcin; Arican, Mehmet; Guler, Cemal; Cangur, SengulBackground and objectives: Hallux valgus is a complex deformity of the first metatarsophalangeal joint characterized by varus deformity of the first metatarsal bone, valgus deformity of the big toe, and lateral deviation of the extensor tendons and sesamoid bones. Several surgical methods have been described for correction of the deformity. Different materials have been used for the fixation of osteotomy. We compared the functional, radiological, and pain results of intramedullary self-locked plates and Herbert screws for the treatment of a hallux valgus deformity. Materials and Methods: Distal metatarsals were treated with self-locking intramedullary plate-screw systems in 18 feet from 12 patients (Group 1) and with Herbert screws in 18 feet from 12 patients (Group 2). The hallux valgus angle (HVA) and intermetatarsal angle (IMA) in patients of Group 1 and 2 were examined radiologically during the pre- and postoperative periods. We also determined the American Orthopedic Foot and Ankle Society (AOFAS), EQ-5D General Life Quality Scale, and Visual Analogue Scale (VAS) scores during the pre- and postoperative periods and compared the scores between groups. Results: Post hoc test results of HVA and IMA angles measured after the operation were significantly higher in Group 2 than in Group 1. In each group, the AOFAS scores during the preoperation period were significantly lower than those during the postoperation period (p < 0.001). According to the post hoc test results, the VAS scores after the operation were significantly higher in Group 2 than in Group 1 (p < 0.001). Conclusions: For the surgical treatment of hallux valgus, operations using self-locked plates compared to a single screw are superior in terms of providing rigid stability and for functional, radiological, and pain scores.Öğe Temporary Fixation of Reduction with Fabric Adhesive Bandage in the Surgical Treatment of Pediatric Supracondylar Humerus Fractures(Mdpi, 2019) Turhal, Ozan; Kinas, Mustafa; Karaduman, Zekeriya Okan; Turhan, Yalcin; Kaya, Onur; Guler, CemalBackground and objectives: Supracondylar humerus fractures are common in children and can be surgically treated. However, the general surgical procedures involving reduction and fixation might lead to reduction loss, failure to direct the Kirschner (K)-wire toward the desired position, prolonged surgery, or chondral damage. This study aimed to show that temporary fixation of closed reduction with a fabric adhesive bandage in pediatric supracondylar humerus fractures could maintain reduction so that surgical treatment can be easily performed by a single physician. Materials and Methods: Forty-six patients with Gartland type 3 supracondylar humerus fractures who underwent surgical treatment between May 2017 and June 2018 were retrospectively evaluated. Fluoroscopy-guided reduction and fixation were performed from the distal third of the forearm to the proximal third of the humerus using a fabric adhesive bandage. Two crossed pins were applied on the fracture line by first inserting a lateral-entry K-wire and then inserting another K-wire close to the anterior aspect of the medial epicondyle and diverging from the ulnar nerve tunnel. A tourniquet was not applied in any patient and no patients required open reduction. Results: The study included 32 boys (69.6%) and 14 girls (30.4%) (mean age, 7.1; range, 2-16 years). The mean hospital stay and follow-up duration were 4.3 +/- 3.9 days and 48.1 +/- 14.3 weeks, respectively. Heterotopic ossification was detected in one patient, and ulnar nerve neuropraxia was detected in another patient. Functional (according to Flynn criteria) and cosmetic outcomes were excellent in 95.6%, moderate in 2.2%, and poor in 2.2% of patients. The mean duration of fixation of the closed reduction with a fabric adhesive bandage was 8.1 +/- 3.9 min, and the mean duration of pinning was 7.9 +/- 1.4 min. Conclusions: Temporary preoperative fixation of supracondylar humerus fractures that require surgical treatment with a fabric adhesive bandage may be significantly convenient in practice.
