Abstract
Objective: To compare the clinical outcomes between two different methods in the treatment of Bennett fractures. Methods:From May 2005 to June 2009,31 patients with Bennett fractures were treated with gypsum and percutaneous fragment pin fixation. In gypsum fixation group,there were 17 cases including 12 males and 5 females with an average age of (43.9 ±5.7) years; according to Buechler classification: 3 cases were Ⅰ region fracture, 11 cases were Ⅱ region fracture,3 cases were Ⅲ region fracture. In percutaneous fragment pin fixation group,there were 14 cases including 8 males and 6 females with an average age of (45.6±6.1) years; according to Buechler classification:3 cases were Ⅰ region fracture,9 cases were Ⅱ region fracture and 2 cases were Ⅲ region fracture. The observing and comparing items of the two groups included: ①length of stay,time of fracture healing, failure of fixation; ②postoperative radiographs comparison according to method of Kjaer-Petersen; ③cannon scores used for outcome measurement. Results: All the patients in the two groups were followed up,the duration ranged from 6 to 15 months,with an average of(9.0±3.5) months. The length of stay were (7.0±2.5) d in gypsum fixation group and (9.0±3.9) d in percutaneous fragment pin fixation group with statistically significant differences (P＜0.05).The postoperative reduction quality according to method of Kjaer-Petersen, in gypsum fixation group :4 patients got an excellent result, 8 good and 5 poor;in percutaneous fragment pin fixation group, the above data were 8,6 and 0 respectively;there were statistically significant differences (P＜0.05)between the two groups. The time of fracture healing were (6.0±0.5) weeks in gypsum fixation group and (6.0±1.9) weeks in percutaneous fragment pin fixation group with no statistically significant differences (P＞0.05). Cannon scores were evaluated at postoperative 3 months,in gypsum fixation group:6 patients got an excellent result, 8 good and 3 fair; in percutaneous fragment pin fixation group, the above data were 8, 5 and 1 respectively; there were no statistically significant differences (P＞0.05)between two groups. Two patients had fracture re-displacement in gypsum fixation group, and no failure cases in percutaneous fragment pin fixation group. Conclusion:There are satisfied therapeutic effects in two different methods for the treatment of Bennett fractures. However, gypsum fixation has advantage of easy to operate and atraumatic, but unstability and easy to displacement; percutaneous fragment pin fixation has advantage of fixed solidly and better in functional rehabilitation, but big in surgical trauma and long in length of stay.关键词
