Comparison of Skeleton Traction and operation for the treatment of humeral supracondylar fracture in children after failed maneuver reposition
Journal of Clinical Orthopedics, 2005Co-Authors: Huang Shi-manAbstract:Objective To compare the effects of Skeleton Traction and operation for the treatment of humeral supracondylar fracture in children after failed maneuver reposition. Methods 40 cases were recruited and divided into 2 groups. Group A was treated with Skeleton Traction and group B with operation. Results The excellent and good rate was 15/20 in group A and 16/20 in group B. There was no significant statistic difference between the two groups (P0.05). Conclusions The effect of Skeleton Traction is identical to that of operation,but Skeleton Traction has some advantages,which is better for this kind of fracture.

Clinical application of intraoperative skeletal Traction in the dog
Veterinary and comparative orthopaedics and traumatology : V.C.O.T, 2006Co-Authors: G. L. Rovesti, A. Margini, F. Cappellari, B. PeironeAbstract:The purpose of this clinical study was to evaluate the technical feasibility of a method for pre-operative and intra-operative Traction for reduction of fractures of the appendicular Skeleton. Traction was used in 24 diaphyseal fractures in 21 dogs. For each dog, the data pertaining to signalment, limb circumference, fracture type, interval between fracture and surgery, and the Traction modalities were recorded. In patients with a latency between trauma and surgery of less than three days, the duration of Traction required to realign the bone segments was shorter than that required for older fractures (P = 0.02). Intraoperative malalignments were corrected by manoeuvres performed with the Traction stand. Once realigned, fracture segments were kept stable for prolonged periods, without the need for a surgical assistant. Postoperative radiographs were evaluated for fracture reduction and axial alignment. Postoperative alignment was judged excellent in 21 fractures and good in three fractures. Fractures were stabilized using external skeletal fixation (n = 10), plates (n = 11) or locked nails (n = 3), depending on the fracture type. The use of the technique was straight-forward and easily applied in a surgical setting. However, its use requires careful application because of the potential for iatrogenic tissue damage.
